AGANOS
THE WAR GOLEM
Age: 3429 (assumed created ~1415 BC)
Height: 8’+
Nationality: Unknown
Gender: N/A
Type: War Golem
Personality traits: Obedient, Stoic, Reserved
Weapon: Fists & Boulders
Animated by a group of powerful artisans for a purpose lost to time, this war golem, the last of its kind, has been a prized possession of warlords, power mongers, and kings, its violent history writ large across the battlefields of Europe and the Middle-East.
As the ages wore on and the battles continued, so was a toll taken on the golem’s body. Its creators long dead, it was impossible to replace its worn and broken components. Piece by piece, battle by battle, the golem lost its original identity, substituting rocks for metal, vines for bolts and ropes.
The golem felt nothing, thought of nothing. It only obeyed commands… until one king gave it a most unusual order. Instead of ordering the construct to kill or destroy, this king commanded it to learn, to think. He named it Aganos “a person of gentle disposition” in the hopes that it would grow beyond its previous use and into something that could choose how to act.
While that simple command allowed Aganos free will, he remained loyal to the king out of respect and as repayment for liberating him from strict obedience.
Years later, when that king learned that Kan-Ra still lived and was going deeper and deeper into research of the dark arts, he asked Aganos to hunt down and destroy the evil sorcerer once and for all. Aganos accepted this task, and for centuries, he has hunted Kan-Ra across the globe, battling him on numerous occasions around the world, yet neither has ever been able to destroy the other completely.
Will the cycle of conflict continue? Will Aganos finally defeat the sorcerer and fulfill the king’s request? Find out in the S2 story!
NEW STAGE!
Until the stream next week, here’s a preview of what Aganos brings to the KI universe:
• The BIGGEST character in KI (sorry, Glacius!).
• A replenishable resource, visual on character, that can be used for projectiles, wall creation, or armor!
• Wall creation, permanently (until destroyed or used) changes the stage boundaries of the fight!
• Variable movement, jump, and attack speeds based on the amount of resource he carries.
• Special roll attack with a controllable bounce component.
• Shadow move that allows free action while incapacitating and damaging the opponent.
• Powerful two hit strikes in place of auto doubles
• The next stage to feature a Stage Ultra!
• Much more! Tune in to the stream!
