The Bestiary is a book that is an artifact of the Order of the Crusaders.

• One creature, even a weak one, is worth five men.

The Order of the Crusaders, the Order of the Dawnguard, and the Order of the Knights of the Dawn are tasked with exterminating these creatures. Each abomination has a name to make it easier to remember and study. Their characteristics are described in the bestiary.

The scum fears the sun. Naturally, they can be encountered even during the day, but during the rainy season, their activity increases significantly. These creatures primarily harm villagers, although they also indirectly affect city dwellers by hindering trade.

Evil spirits do not interbreed.

Biography After receiving the first cross, Lorgon and Ivan realized that Zegel's power was excessive—he possessed the ability to bend others' wills. They feared that such power would corrupt him, turning him into an arrogant and cruel man. According to Lorgon, arrogance had indeed become a trait of his, but cruelty never manifested itself—he always leaves people free to choose.

Biography Lorgon became a Crusader a day after Ivan. During one battle, he went mad and committed a massacre in Monthart, for which he was killed by his own brother. However, he was later resurrected by the Goddess of the Buried, pleased by the carnage he had caused, and they have maintained a strange, special bond ever since.

Having fought in numerous wars, he and his brother attempted to create a new generation of crusaders, but the ritual, conducted without their knowledge, was not entirely successful: out of a hundred candidates, only twenty survived. Together with Ivan, he executed those responsible for the failure and personally trained those who remained. After their purge, they installed their own people in leadership positions within the church and issued a decree banning further rituals to create crusaders. He also vowed never to change his clothes, preferring to maintain them himself, a symbol of his devotion and strength. His clothes can also regenerate, even when completely destroyed, as demonstrated in his resurrection scene in the Wind Spire.

Skills and abilities Swordsmanship - A master of fencing, he describes himself as "the best swordsman on the continent." Delusion is a power that even Lorgon himself hasn't fully explored.

His appearance is completed by a long red coat he stole from Dante from Devil May Cry, worn over a black shirt, black pants, and a belt with a gold ring.

In his Death Knight form, he has black hair and eyes, and his entire outfit turns inky black.Character Lorgon is a true warrior, ready without hesitation to judge those he believes to be in conflict with the will of the Supreme Being. However, he is not without the ability to forgive if he sees genuine remorse. His views on the elves remain contradictory: on the one hand, he views them as enemies, but on the other, he is capable of judging them by their actions, not just their origins.

Despite his stern demeanor, Lorgon displays a sense of humor in informal settings and remains loyal to his comrades, regardless of their race. He enjoys teasing Ivan about his ambiguous connection to Lisa, but is at a loss when his brother mentions Ruya.

Full name Fox Far Arnelio Age - 64 Race - High Elf Status: Alive Social Status - Daughter-in-law of Ivan Lisa Far Arnelio - High Elves.

A girl from the Elves, by human standards she looks to be about 20, but her real age is 64 due to the genetic longevity of her race.

In her human form, she is no different from a normal human girl with her long white hair and blue eyes, but like all elves, she has a true form in which she gains fox ears and a tail.

Her behavior may differ from case to case, so her character can be called changeable.

She is kind, but can become sarcastic, proud or impudent.

She can be called brave, but her bravery is often indistinguishable from recklessness, which can be attributed to her young age, since by the standards of the elves she has only just entered adulthood.

Has good communication skills, thanks to which he can establish good relationships quite quickly.

Skills and abilities Strength—Ivan has the power to balance his madness, which is why he became captain. No stronger than Lorgon, you idiots. The Alphabet of God - possesses the alphabet, which allows him to carry out all possible manipulations with reality and even violate the laws of the universe. An example is the rainy season, as well as the ability to materialize one's reflection into an independent person. Sensitivity to other people's emotions is the ability to feel other people's emotions when in contact with an entity. This ability can help to find out whether a creature is lying or telling the truth. Time Stop - allows you to stop time, however, this ability lasts no more than a few seconds, but perhaps if he trains it, he will be able to stop time for, for example, a minute, but this ability takes a huge amount of strength. Space - Ivan's power allows him to separate objects from each other, from each other. Travel - Ivan can travel between points using what is presumably a tree root system, entering one tree and exiting through another in a different location. Flight - can fly, we were shown this during his battle with the chase.

Full name Ivan Weller Age - More than 600 years Race - Human Nickname: Red-Eyed Ivan Status: Alive Affiliation: Order of the Crusaders Rank - Captain Title: God's Executioner Ivan - Captain of the Holy Knightly Order of the Crusaders

Ivan is one of the eldest brothers of the Crusaders. He is the captain of the order, capable of balancing the power of the cross, for which he was chosen to this position. He, along with Lorgon and a third, currently unknown brother, raised the remaining 17 children.

Their goal was to gather a hundred loyal knights, but rituals and trials left only twenty alive.

After the order's collapse, Ivan retired from combat and began living a solitary life.

However, fate brought him together with Lisa, a representative of the elves, a people

Ivan possesses an inner strength that allows him to contain his darkness, unlike Lorgon, who is unable to resist its influence.

Any divine power puts pressure on the mind, and Ivan was no exception.

When he used the God Alphabet to create a clone, it became a violation of the laws of the universe.

Any power emanating from the cross inevitably entails the effect of madness.

For example, if Ivan strikes a tree, the equivalent blow will be reflected in his mind.

The same thing happens when using spells.

He is one of the few who is able to perfectly balance on the edge of madness and reality.

It was thanks to this ability that he took the place of captain of the order.

He is bound by a vow that forbids him from taking the lives of others.

However, this prohibition does not apply to filth.

Capabilities Super Jump. A jump that allows Crusaders to quickly travel vast distances. The Crusaders can hear the Supreme One, but not communicate with him. Crusaders are immune to poisons and diseases. All the crusaders have the same surname - Weller, but only the captain has the right to introduce himself by it. Crusaders heal very quickly from wounds and scars, but not all of them. Those inflicted by another Crusader's weapon remain forever. The Crusaders never get sick, never age, live forever, but it is possible to kill them. Summoning Birds. Crusaders can summon birds for various attacks or retreats (first mentioned in the first episode). Used in the final episode by Ivan against the Unknown Abomination.

How did people become crusaders? When candidates for the role underwent a rigorous selection process, the Pontiff carved a mark on their foreheads with the Dagger of the Sun. Afterward, the candidate was placed on an altar, where the amber blood of the Supreme One was placed above their head. It takes many years for the energy of the Supreme One to become physical, and when sufficient, drops would fall onto the wound on the forehead. But controlling the quantity and concentration is impossible. It is unpredictable each time. Many, of course, have perished for more than this reason. The Supreme One chooses only those they deem worthy. To understand their power, it takes years to accumulate strength. For the Crusader Knights, this takes only five minutes. The ritual has been abandoned, as Ivan and Largon have seen that the survival rate is very low, no more than one in five. All those who knew about the ritual or had any connection to it were killed, and close associates were placed in the upper echelons of the church to ensure no further casualties.

The Knights have a very large following of faithful followers, whom they themselves have blessed.

— Glorificatum Alteorum

— Alteorum Gloria

The most terrifying order of all. All followers of this order are permitted absolutely everything worldly. They may not observe traditions, they don't have to pray, they don't have to attend temples. They can also denigrate the Almighty. Their power allows them to enter any home, bow the heads of kings, and make enemies flee in terror.

— Each of them has such a status that even kings bow their heads before them.

The Order of the Crusaders numbers over two hundred members, but of these, only 20 are Crusaders. The Order of the Crusaders was the greatest and most legendary knightly force. Its main characteristic was the knights imbued with a fragment of the Supreme Power. They gained their unique abilities through crosses that granted incredible power, but in return, doomed them to madness. This madness can subjugate their will and drive them to horrific acts—for example, Largon, under its influence, destroyed an entire city.

The madness's influence is now weakened thanks to Zegel, who can take it from his brothers and sisters while remaining immune to it. Squires wear crosses on their arms, protecting them from this curse, unlike knights. Each crusader is a master of combat, capable of destroying any evil spirit. They are immune to poison and disease, and their wounds heal on their own (except for Lorgon and Ivan, who retain their scars out of respect). However, alcohol still affects them.

The Order has been reorganized, and a new Crusade against the Church has been declared. The Crusaders possess the gift of the High One to shape destinies; they can take a life with a single movement. Their duty to the High One is to destroy all evil. To avoid falling prey to madness, they prefer to rely on their own skills rather than on the powers bestowed upon them.

Food and Traditions Almost vegetarians.

Meat - only in rituals or extreme cases, for example, for the life of the clan.

The main dish is Chu Elli: a thick stew made from root vegetables, wild herbs, mushrooms, berries, and spices, collected strictly according to the lunar phases.

They cook it in huge cauldrons over a sacred fire and eat it with the whole family, passing the cup around with blessings.

Fears and vulnerabilities Thunderstorm, lightning, thunder - hypersensitive ears, panic, horror.

Cold and winter - paralysis, immobility without external heat.

Humans and the Blood Brotherhood are in constant fear: elves are still hunted, captured alive, imprisoned in metal cages, enslaved in chains and shackles for the sake of experimentation on these animals and the extraction of blood. Language Melodic, melodious, with hissing “shhh”, “sss”, whistling sounds, drawn-out vowels.

In strong emotions - purely animal sounds.

Songs are the basis of communication, rituals, the transmission of knowledge and history.

Ritual Great hibernation occurs annually or every few years.

The elkhs settle into warm beds deep in the forest, cover themselves with skins, and fall into a state of stillness, their consciousness remaining awake. It is often during this Great Hibernation that their offspring are conceived.

Rituals The funeral rite is burning on a huge bonfire in the heart of the forest.

The soul returns to the ancestors, All Mother and All Father.

Two faces Human normal state: almost indistinguishable from humans, but with refined, aristocratic features. The skin is light or has a golden-silver tint.

Hair is varied: snow-white, gray, all shades of brown, black, light blond.

The eyes are bright, piercing - often blue, green, gray, blue; less often amber or violet.

Elvish Beastly: Activated by will or strong emotions of threat. Large, mobile ears appear, often like those of a cat or a fox, and are very expressive.

A long, fluffy tail that actively reflects emotions.

The eyes become even brighter, the pupils are a vertical slit in anger, fear, threat, or become round in surprise, excitement, tenderness, joy, calmness.

Canine teeth, clawed fingersPhysiology Superwarm-blooded: cold causes shivers, paralysis, and complete immobility; winter without shelter is deadly. Warmth—sun, fire, and a warm embrace—dramatically increases strength, speed, vitality, and regeneration.

A strong, flexible, and powerful body. Powerful regeneration: minor wounds heal in hours to days, fractures in weeks, and limbs can regrow slowly, especially with forest magic.

Life expectancy

Age of majority is ≈ 50 years.

Ordinary elves are 300–450 years old.

High Elves - 900-1400 years.

Old age occurs at 300–500+ years.

Faith All Father is the spirit of strength, protection of the forest, winter, warriors.

All Mother is the spirit of life, fertility, spring, healing, family.

Worship: singing, dancing under the moon, offerings to the forest of flowers, seeds, fruits, woven wreaths.

The Elhi are an ancient, half-beast race. They are proud, sensitive creatures, closely connected to nature and the forest, and there are very few of them left in the world—they are almost extinct due to persecution, war, and hunting by humans, particularly the church. Origin and nature of the race The Elkhs arose in the heart of the primeval forest from the fusion of nature spirits and the first sparks of life. They embody the balance between a refined, almost human soul and the wild, primal power of beasts.

Proud, preferring solitude, silence, contemplation and harmony with the forest.

Family ties are sacred and indestructible for them.

An insult or a wound to the soul is never forgotten—time passes slowly for the elves, and revenge can be passed down through generations and be eternal and merciless.

There are very few clan groups left - this is logical, given how they are treated - they are often called "cattle" in a derogatory context, hunted, captured into slavery. Emotional nature and hypersensitivity Elkhs are extremely vulnerable emotionally - even the slightest disruption of harmony - a harsh sound, an aggressive aura, or emotional dissonance - causes a strong physiological reaction: pressed ears, hissing, panic, stupor, or shock.

In strong emotions the voice turns into purely animal sounds:

Anger/rage → snake hissing or low growling

Tenderness/fear/sadness → quiet meowing or plaintive whistling

Surprise/joy → high-pitched trills or purrs

Emotions on the face are read instantly and very vividly: joy, fear, anger, sadness, resentment, cold vindictiveness, embarrassment, etc. Two faces
