In the description of the world of Ashan, the race of the Faceless appears several times – they make a pact with the Dark Elves, turning them into Dark Elves, and at the beginning of the world, they fight against the angels... Why not create a Faceless race? I would be very grateful to anyone who could provide me with links to any official Nival information about this race.

The Faceless Ones – that’s what Ubisoft should be blamed for, and the orc expansion shouldn’t be the last one.))) Interesting, interesting – for some reason, the Faceless Ones are starting to vaguely remind me of the troglodytes from the third game.))) And here’s some food for thought – the Faceless Ones in dungeons – who else besides dark elves and dwarves hangs out in dungeons?))))
By the way, how could the Faceless be defeated in a war if they are FACELESS!!!???
What's the problem?:eek:
But it's really difficult to balance and create a race... First of all, because almost nothing is known about these Faceless! I feel like I'll have to come up with all the units myself. It's not that it's difficult - it's just unknown how well it will fit into the world of Heroes...

The thing is, all the Faceless were destroyed, and the most important among them, the goddess Malassa, is gone. What's the point of this race? Maybe we should make a race of angels instead? :smile40: The Faceless are all dead, and what's missing in Heroes 5 is a nag.
Guys, read Le Guin; the idea of the Faceless (Unnamed) comes from there. It's not a race, but an element, immeasurably more powerful than the elementary elements (fire, earth, water, air) – Darkness, which is older than the world and always exists. It cannot be destroyed because the Faceless "live" in every shadow... Malassa was just an emanation, far from being the strongest of the Faceless. Creating such a "race" is simply an insult to the very idea of Darkness. IMHO.
Я вернулась... :smile24: Ну что, не ждали? :smile08: Пусть за нас говорит сталь! :smile13:
For me, the Faceless Ones are associated with the Nameless One and the Far Realms from Perumov's works. But how do you make them a playable race? They hardly have any units.

What's the point of making them? After all, they are divine beings, and they shouldn't fight alongside mortals; that's blasphemy in itself. I agree with Laura.

What a HORROR. Even a TERRIBLE horror. Fans of darkness are just a nightmare:smile48: "An insult to the idea of Darkness" made me fall deep under the table:smile40::smile40::smile40: And don't you think that the local Ashan demons are a blatant insult to the idea of evil? And what do you think about the Void? Do you like it when there is nothing? After all, darkness is not the opposite of light, but simply the absence of it...
I never suspected about the connections between the world of Heroes and Ursula Le Guin... I hope there is NO such connection. And if the mentioned data – such as the fact that the Faceless hide in every shadow (something reminiscent of monsters hiding in every closet, etc.) – has something to do with the world of Heroes, where can I find this information? On this site, as well as on the Nival site, there is too little said about the Faceless...
2Magnus – please explain how they were destroyed and when: after all, they managed to conclude an agreement with the dark elves? So, at least by that time, they were still intact. The race of angels is being actively developed by Machete. And why don't you object to the race of demons then?

The Faceless Ones are creatures of angel level in Ashan. Just as angels exist for Elrath, the Faceless Ones exist for Malassa. The dark elves made a pact with the last of the Faceless Ones.

Vijja, you are a drow and worship Malassa. Are you aware that the dark elves of Ashan are not drow?
And also, just because an idea was taken from somewhere doesn't mean that Malassa was a Faceless One. Then, provide evidence that the Faceless Ones are a race of Malassa. Malassa was an Elemental Dragon - a Dragon of Darkness, and what the Faceless Ones are in Ashan - see my previous post
Level 1 - Shadow.
Ability: After the end of the battle, 100% of the original number of shadows are restored. But only underground, where there is a shadow.
And you can also add auxiliary beasts and monsters, like those worms and other monsters. As a result, it will turn out to be a kind of remake of the Dungeon faction from Heroes 3, but with a slightly different spirit and more diverse. And it is easy to make their storyline appearance - they are creatures of darkness - and it is nothing for them to create veils of darkness over their cities in order to remain unnoticed.
What a HORROR. An absolute HORROR. The Dark faction fans are simply a nightmare.:smile48: "The desecration of the Dark faction idea" made me crawl under the table:smile40::smile40::smile40: Don't you think that the local Ashan demons are a blatant desecration of the idea of evil?

I apologize for the long delay in responding; I just didn't have time to check this thread. 1. The Faceless were almost completely destroyed during the War of the Ancients. 2. Malassa was a Faceless, at least indirectly, since the Dark Elves concluded an agreement with the Faceless. 3. Demons, it would be a desecration to make: 3.1 a race of Archdevils 3.2 a race of Angels 3.3 a race of Emerald Dragons 3.4 a race of Faceless 3.5 a race of Titans 3.6 a race of Ghost Dragons 3.7 a race of Lava Dragons 3.8 a race of Cyclops 3.9 a race of Phoenixes 4. In Ashan, it's not Dark Elves, but Drow; the Dark Elves were in Might and Magic 8, TES III, and here it's clearly Drow, with their way of life, matriarchy, etc
What kind of matriarchy do they have here when the leaders are men and half of the heroes are men? And this Ilaya, the guardian of the law, almost grovels before Raelag – with the Drow, she would have whipped him and sent him to punish those who are undesirable.
And her appearance is not at all Drow-like – which is a great stroke of luck.
Actually, in my opinion, the Drow are the dark elves. This race was created by Salvatore, and it had two names; for example, Tolkien introduced elves into the world of fantasy, giving them a whole bunch of names (common to the entire people – elves and Quendi).
