The Halls of the Waxen King have cast open their doors for the first time in decades, welcoming ambitious Liches to genuflect before their liege in return for wealth and power. The king requires the collection of enchanted wax to sustain his mighty suit of unliving armour, will you search for caches and stockpiles? Or will you shatter your opponents and steal it from them?
ABOUT NECROPOLIS:
The age of the living ended long ago. Only the dead remain. Liches chase the ambitions of eons past, revenants wage war over crumbling cities, and the broken undead flock to find meaning in the service of these dark lords. Channel your magic and muster your minions, for the treasures of the Endless City await.
