Their ingenuity is only surpassed by their desire to turn a profit. They are makers, and bankers, and entertainers, and traders, and sellers, and inventors, and war profiteers. ![]() They are the money and manufacturing arm of …well, everything that is left. The LLC (Last Light Consortium) are the aristocratic merchant class of the galaxy at the end of the universe. As the official motto of the Jennerit Empire states: “Any Deed. If the Jennerit need to manipulate the laws of the universe in the process, so be it. Anything they deem imperfect must be fixed or destroyed. The Thralls are altered beasts who have been given a modicum of intelligence and are widely employed as a slave race for labor and as grunt warriors. Even their own society has evolved into caste-based layers with the genetically-altered Sustained at the top, non-Sustained Jennerit just below them, and everything and everyone else below. The Jennerit despise any race who express flaws and inefficiencies (which are, in fact, most other races). In their bid to master life, members of the Jennerit must choose how they will use their power: Will they side with Rendain to bring the end of the universe? Or will they fight with the Battleborn to save the last star? To that end, the Jennerit harness dark energies of the universe to twist the natural order of things as they see fit. They strive for perfection and they are not about to let something like mortality stand in their way. The Varelsi, in many ways, are the epitome of everything the Eldrid hate, and the Eldrid have waged war against the dark mysterious beings for thousands of years. The Eldrid despise any being or thing which corrupts or distorts the core rules and laws of the universe. They fiercely oppose anything that would disrupt that order, up to and including other factions’ efforts to save (or destroy) Solus. The Eldrid are chiefly concerned with maintaining the natural order of the universe – the birth and death of stars, the probabilistic rise of life and complexity, and yes, even entropy. Spreading out across the universe, the Eldrid centered their seat of power on the planet, Codex, the home to massive data troves – a planet-spanning repository of all the knowledge from around the universe, encoded into the very DNA structure of the planet’s massive eliim trees. The Eldrid value the natural universe and spend great deals of time – and resources – observing, preserving, and cataloging all that they find. When the Varelsi or Jennerit start bending the rules of space-time though, the Eldrid are anything but peaceful. ![]() Compelled to understand, catalogue, and preserve the natural order of things, they would be happy to be left alone and quietly conduct their observation-based research. Their knowledge archives are the oldest in the universe. Despite Dota 2 being the successor to its mother game, Dota, it lost in the revenue battle against its top competitor, Riot Games League of Legends, which recorded $2.1billion in revenues in 2017.The Eldrid are old. In 2017, Valve recorded $406million in revenues generated from Dota 2, up from the $260million Dota 2 raked in in 2016. Five years later, IceFrog was hired by Valve to create Dota 2, which is one of the most famous MOBA games played today. ![]() In 2004, Steve "Guinsoo" Freak created the modern standard of Dota maps before leaving the projects to modders Neichus and IceFrog, who has been credited with how the game is played and viewed today. Other modders like Meian and Ragn0r took up the project when Eul stopped updating the mod and created the first heroes based on the playable characters in Warcraft III. ![]() DID YOU KNOWĭid you know that Defense of the Ancients, or Dota, the game credited for popularizing the multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game genre, started as a modded game based on the action and real-time strategy game Warcraft III? In 2002, a modder named Kyle "Eul" Sommer used Warcraft's world editor and created a modded map based on the famous StarCraft mod game called Aeon of Strife. MOBA games differ with its sister games by its gameplay, since players are allowed to control one unit only. It is a subgenre of real-time strategy video games, also known as RTS. MOBA is an acronym that stands for multiplayer online battle arena.
