Kyrian Storyline

Kyrians dedicated themselves to ferrying souls to eternity, with those who can prove their worth in Bastion trials given a chance to carry out an even higher calling among the Archon’s most devoted. However, with the Maw claiming so many souls and the unrest spreading through the Shadowlands, the order’s duties are now in jeopardy.

Kyrian Appearance

Bastion itself is characterized by towering spires, clear blue skies, and shiny crystalline, which translates into the order’s glowing blue mech-like plate armor. This look comes with a pair of angelic wings or a jeweled halo attached to the back. The order’s mount will also demonstrate this armored, geometric, jeweled look.
