One of them, the extremely powerful Mystic Knight Thanatos is draining the citizens of Pandora of their life-energy, turning them into zombie-like slaves to topple the kingdom from within. Randi and his partners, the girl Primm and the sprite Popoi, defend several nations from the Emperor's generals. As such, he sets out to restore the sword’s power and stop the Vandole Empire. Randi learns that only the legendary Mana Knight could have drawn out the sword. With that and the powers he gained by selling his soul to Mavolia, he could take over Fa'Diel. The Emperor aims to release the Mana Fortress: an ultimate flying castle and warship sealed eons prior under a sunken island. The evil Emperor Vandole seizes profit of it to take control of the monsters, sending his generals break the seal on the Seeds of the Mana Tree (the earthly avatar of the Mana Goddess), spreading destruction on their wake. The story begins when the hero Randi draws the fabled Sword of Mana from a rock, unknowingly lifting the spell keeping the monsters from Mavolia at bay. ~ Thanatos revealing his plan before the final battle. With his body I will use the Mana Fortress to rule the world! Now he possesses a foolishly naïve sense of justice. A human capable of augmenting my power beyond comprehension! Dyluck is one such human! His dark powers were sealed as a child. He has enormous influence over Mavolia, and secretly controls the dark forces that the Empire are using.Įvery few decades, there is one born in the shadow of Darkness. He drains life-force and the power of Mana to spawn monsters. Thanatos has incredible powers and control of Evil, Dark Magic and monsters, being able to curse countries, to drain life-force, to empower his servants, to brainwash and corrupt people, and to see and talk somewhere else. He recognizes their merits, but never sees them as threats and despises their defiance. He remains hidden and acts through proxies, skilfully manipulating enemies and allies alike and only acting in person for important tasks, never meeting the heroes until they confront him. Worse, he is cruel, wrathful, taunting and power-hungry. Thanatos is cold, imposing and callous but formal. He needs a vessel to subsist and being destroyed under his true spiritual form would terminate him once and for all. As such, he seeks a host from both Light and Darkness who could sustain him forever and tremendously boost his might. His evil might is too much for normal vessels, who must subsist on stolen life-force and always end up falling apart. The more he body-switches, the more his evil grows. His spirit manifests by taking over people, killing them in the process. He was once human but is now a wraith-like demon warlock, strongly tied to Dark Magic and Necromancy, who feeds on hatred and destruction. The Dark Lich is the ancient spirit of an evil sorcerer who long ago sold his soul to the Underworld of Mavolia (the Mana counterpart of Hell) for eternal life. In the remake, he is grey with a bone membrane on his shoulders, his hair are forest green, his horns become devilish and the gem is replaced by a third eye.Īrtwork of Thanatos as the host of the Dark Lich in the remake. He sports claws, glowing red eyes, lime green hair, and two green short horns protruding from a red gem on his forehead. He is so tall the heroes could fit in his hand, he has no legs and his coat is filled with a starry night, with a creepy glowing light under his ribcage. The Dark Lich is an immense, demonic, ghastly skeleton clad in a luxurious yet torn dark red coat with green and gold trimming. Indeed, the being known as "Thanatos" is in fact nothing but an undead vessel for an evil spirit only known as the Dark Lich. He looks human, but his eyes glowing through the sockets of his skull mask, and in the remake the skeletal left hand he hides under his cape, his red eye and his dark aura, hint something much worse. Besides, his breastplate shaped like a ribcage and the stars and moon motifs on his robes evoke his true form. In the remake, his eyes are red, his shoulder pads are skull-shaped and his robes are dark purple with golden trimming. In the original, he wears white robes and a cape fixed to metallic shoulder-pads, hiding his arms and expanding his frame. Thanatos is a tall, lanky and gaunt man with ageless features and long, light purple hair, hiding his face behind a creepy, horned skull mask displaying three bright white eyes.
