The Waking Plague

What Comes Next Is Up To You.

The Everborn don't invade. They rewrite. Six months after Roots of Ruin first cracked the earth, the awakening has accelerated — ecosystems are propagating into shapes nobody designed, souls aren't reaching the underworld they were promised, and every god in Eucos is making decisions they wouldn't have made a year ago.

Pallas, Wise Beyond Years

Architect of Fragile Solutions 

Magic believes the Everborn can be understood, but Pallas exemplifies intellect under extreme strain in a world where understanding does not equal control. He offers calculated brilliance through arcane systems built to isolate and counter the spreading infection. Through the Fellowship of his peers, he provides a Vow of Champions to stabilize a battlefield defined by biological inevitability 

Variant: Available in Shiny packs.

The Maddening One

Scion of the Corrupted Wilds
As Aeona’s instability spreads into the wilds, lush beauty has curdled into ecological horror. The Maddening One ensures that familiar life persists only in warped, unstable forms, creating a state of volatile confusion on the battlefield. This Everborn presence punishes the arrival of any new creature by inflicting Confusion and a slow, agonizing Burn. 

Variant: Available in Shiny packs.

One Who Remembers

Legacy of the Ancient World 

As the fundamental laws of Eucos fail and the world becomes alien, this Dragon stands as a remnant of the natural and divine order that existed before the awakening. It rewards commanders who maintain the stability of a diverse deck, providing massive healing to a god under pressure. When fully surged with mana, it can completely refresh a mortal's reserves, offering a rare moment of renewal in a dying world

Variant: Available in Shiny packs.

Aria, Unwitting Hero

Beacon of Uneasy Coalitions 

Aria represents earnest heroism strained by necessity, forced to lead an unlikely coalition of former enemies to prevent total extinction. As Light shifts from a domain of purity to one of hard decisions and moral compromise, Aria provides a rallying point for fellowship. Her presence allows a mortal to wield their god power with zero cost, offering a flicker of hope under extreme pressure

Variant: Available in Premium packs.

The Formless Leech

Siphon of the Breaking Afterlife

In an afterlife drowning in bodies, the Everborn have begun to repurpose biomass and deny souls their rightful passage. The Formless Leech is the embodiment of this unruly power, growing more accessible as the systems of Death fail. It survives by stealing the very life essence from the enemy god to sustain its own parasitic existence 

Variant: Available in Regular packs.

Undercover Insurgent

Agent of Calculated Ambition 

Moving behind every front, Deception seeks not to save the world, but to own whatever remains after the carnage. This Nether agent thrives on schemes and revelation, causing the enemy's own forces to turn on one another in a fit of divine fraud. Even in death, the Insurgent ensures the mission continues by delivering Stolen Plans into its commander’s hand

Variant: Available in Regular packs.

The Entangling Horde

The Adaptive Propagation

The Everborn do not merely invade; they propagate through root systems and spores that rewrite entire ecosystems. The Entangling Horde represents this accelerated growth, consuming its own lesser fungal extensions to erupt into a massive, regenerative wall of biomass. It is a manifestation of a threat that thrives on attempts to destroy it, becoming a hardier strain with every iteration

Variant: Available in Sealed, 7-win runs.

The Great Finality

Harbinger of Biological Inevitability

This is the ultimate point where survival depends on the willingness to take risks and accept lasting consequences. The Great Finality is a manifestation of total sacrifice, entering the fray with every possible combat advantage to end the world that was. Its ultimate power is a Manasurge that can reduce an opponent’s life to a mere breath, signaling the inevitable end of the conflict 

Variant: Available in Battle Pass Season 15 - Whale Battle Packs Exclusive.

The Garrison on the Edge

The Unyielding Bastion of Eucos 

Representing War’s refusal to retreat even when faced with certain annihilation, this legend is a last stand carved in stone. While it stands as an immovable Frontline structure, it reflects the stubborn endurance of the Draka who refuse to abandon their homes. It turns the agony of the siege against the enemy, dealing damage back to the opponent based on its own missing health 

Variant: Reserved for events

Meet the Squeaklings

  • Premium Packs – 15% (~1 per 6.67 packs)
  • Shiny Packs – 45% (~1 per 2.22 packs)

Tales of The Waking Plague

Written in the back room of The Imporium, by a lamp that keeps going out

There are plagues that kill, and plagues that change.

I have written about both. I thought I understood the difference.

The Everborn is neither. It is a rewrite. It does not murder the world—it edits it, line by

line, root by root, until the world that remains no longer recognizes the sentence it came

from.  What follows are the accounts of those caught in the teeth of the change. Some I

witnessed. Some were told to me in the Imporium's back room, over drinks that tasted of

ash. One was told to me by Squeak, which I offer with appropriate editorial skepticism.

They are not hopeful stories. They were not hopeful times.

But they are true. And the truth, even the ugly truth, is the only ward I have left to offer.
