The Mau are a breed of humanoid beasts found throughout the Asmodian territories. They possess acute agility and a carnal instinct for battle, providing a significant threat to the Asmodians in Pandaemonium.

The tribes of the Mau are well adapted to their surroundings and live in close harmony with nature. They are exceedingly belligerent and courageous. They do not hesitate to bare their grisly teeth when they feel threatened.

Typical weaponry used by the Mau is light, sharp, and thrown from a distance ? ideal for their agile fighting style. In close combat, however, they are perhaps easier to handle than the brutish Krall.
Yet another characteristic of the Mau is that they are able to tame nearby beasts. These tamed minions are used against their enemies in battle with startling efficiency.

Despite their physical advantages, the Mau have not managed to dominate the Asmodian territories for one perceivable reason - their lack of unity. The Mau are very able creatures individually, both in strength and intelligence. However, as a whole, their culture revolves around small tribes allowing little organization in warfare. Despite this, they are often found jumping into the forefront of battle when they see their own kind in danger.

These are spirits that are composed of pure elemental fire, one of the 4 original elements that went into the creation of Atreia. They are often found in heated or volcanic areas. There are four classifications of Fire Elementals based on how powerful their elemental energies are.


Characters who became specialized in summoning magic can call upon these spirits through spells. As the skill level of the summoner increases, so does the level of the spirit that may be summoned. At its highest level, a Fire Elemental has an intimidating appearance and wields a flaming sword and shield.

Sanctum is the capital city of Elysea, a metropolis which hovers at the centre of the nation. Whilst the Elyos make up the majority of Sanctum?s population, it is also home to a number of other folk employed by the Elysean government and military; such as the Shungo, who occupy a large part of the financial districts. Sanctum is looked upon with envy and admiration by the humans and other non Daeva who cannot claim to be a part of its thriving population.

In the beginning, Sanctum was merely a castle from which the benevolent Azariel ruled. It was only as the war against the Balaur and the Asmodians deepened that it developed into the city that it is today, a social and vibrant hub and not just a military outpost.

After the great catastrophe that split the world apart, the lands of Elysea were left in ruins. Frequent attacks from the bestial races meant that the rebuilding process was under constant threat. This forced the five Seraphim, including the Arch Seraphim, Azariel himself, to gather their magic and use it to lift Sanctum into the air and out of enemy reach.
As commerce within the city grew active, Sanctum became the core for economic, military and administrative activities – but there was a problem. With the city floating in the air, and the population bursting at the seams, transportation in and out of Sanctum became overcrowded and difficult. This lead to the formation of suburbs forming on the ground beneath the floating metropolis. These days Sanctum is a prosperous complex - equally important as a social centre for the Elyos now, as it was to them in its earliest form as a military base.

Sanctum is marked by key structures that epitomise its strength and prosperity. These include the Airship Port, an important centre for trade and transportation, and the ?Nobelium? - the largest structure in all of Elysea. Also found within the city is an arena for training Daeva, as well as markets, banks and other facilities necessary for any thriving city to possess.
Whilst Sanctum is a social hub, not all areas of the city are open to wanderers. Although not much is known, it is said that there exists a holy district where only the most revered Daeva may enter. Such rumours can seldom be verified, but it is for certain that some of us will inevitably cross paths with Elysea?s secrets.

The Shungo are friendly to both the Elyos and the Asmodians as they are considered a neutral merchant race within Atreia. Smaller in size to most other races of the world, they tend to use their clever negotiating skills to avoid most skirmishes ? they also have the ability to ?play dead? to quite a believable degree. Most races understand the importance of the Shugo to their society and commerce and would likely protect them from invaders when given the chance. And what?s not to like? The Shugo are extremely friendly and generally have a happy disposition.

During the Millennium Wars, the Shungo used their cunning to take control of trade and commerce within the cities. As time grew on, a division of Shugo traders began to smuggle items through the Abyss and between both worlds. These Shugo are known as The Dark Cloud. Be wary and do not expect The Dark Cloud to be as friendly as their cousins.

Within Shugo society exist many merchants, bankers and vendors. They also seem to congregate around workshops and other crafting areas.

Painful memories of the Millennium Wars materialised throughout Atreia in the form of scar-like spatial rifts. These rifts, collectively named The Abyss, constitute the central area of Aion, a stark reminder of the increasing vulnerability of the Tower of Eternity.

The Abyss, unlike the ethereal surrounding areas, is a realm torn between chaos and disorder, akin to a nightmare. It exists in the core of the Aion universe, and so appears and behaves very differently from anywhere else you might discover in Atreia. The anarchic and imposing nature of the Abyss lends itself to combat, a place where battles are fought and wars won.

Throughout the Abyss the Elyos, Asmodians and Balaur can be found locked in bitter PvPvE battles. It is a hazardous and unpredictable area, with new challenges and opportunities for victory lurking in every shadow. Whilst it holds many dangers, players that choose to brave the Abyss will be rewarded as the area is rife with valuable resources, legendary bosses to defeat and enemy encampments to raid and pillage.

The Abyss is not a place to be entered into light heartedly, yet it is certain many will be lured in by the promise of its rich rewards. Highly desirable items and rare resources can be found deep in the Abyss, the draw of which may be too strong for even the most inexperienced of adventurers.

Whilst the Abyss offers rich hunting grounds, it is also one of the most dynamic and exciting aspects of Aion.
