The Venturian knights are mysterious and powerful sect of heroic warriors who have existed since before the Age of Sorrows. They are comprised of men and women who epitomize goodness, valour, honour, and nobility.

Even though each member of the Venturian knights is a great hero, there exists an elite subset of the knights, called Immortals. These men and women are a cut above even the other Venturians and, infallibly, become the centre points of great legends, which survive the centuries. Their valour and goodness are matched by their great skills and limitless courage.

Venturian Immortals are rarely found leading great armies or travelling in large groups. More often, they can be found amidst the fray on the battlefield, or challenging demons and dragons single headedly. Still, if an Immortal makes a friend he will stand by their side no matter what. Venturian Immortals are named ‘Immortal’ because they are notoriously difficult to kill.
