Disciples III: Renaissance Factions Overview – The Legions of the Damned

In Disciples III's mystical land of Nevendaar, three factions face off against one another for control of the world -- The Empire, The Legions of the Damned and the Elves. Each faction is fighting for a specific cause, be it complete domination of Nevendaar, or simply maintaining the balance between good and evil.

In the second of the factions overview we delve into the dark origins of The Legions of the Damned, the cursed who walk the earth of Nevendaar.

The Legions of the Damned

If there is a force to spread disgust and fear in the hearts of all the peaceful inhabitants of Nevendaar it would be Bethrezen's younger children: the demons. They call themselves the Legions of the Damned. Called so as they are many and all of them cursed along with their creator, who was thrown into the fiery hell by the Celestial Father. Like men, they are fearful in battle, but they win not by virtue of true faith or superior combat skills but their devouring rage and fury is what makes them so formidable.

They say that demons know no fear. Indeed, what can possibly stop a being that knows that after falling in battle, it will once again be sent to the hell where its kin dwell, and there it shall be reborn even more powerful than before? Only the wrath of Bethrezen is something they have to fear, for the ire of the Fallen is too great for even a demon to withstand.

Born in the roaring flame of the prison where the betrayed angel was doomed to suffering, they are now driven by the pain and hatred of their creator. They are destined to bring the cleansing flame upon the lands of Nevendaar and chastise those who had denied their creator and abandoned him. Bethrezen's lust for revenge is insatiable, and so his monsters will come into the world of Nevendaar over and over again, until their mission is fulfilled.


Disciples III: Renaissance is the next title in the award-winning Disciples series and represents a huge leap forward in the evolution of the turn-based RPG/strategy genre. Building on the successes of the first two games, Disciples III: Renaissance introduces a host of new features as well as the compelling gameplay that made the previous titles so popular.

Disciples III: Renaissance will be available on Windows PC this summer.
