About the game
As part of an ancient and secret order of Egyptian warriors, the Keepers of the Sacred Flame have taken an oath that has passed down for generations. It is their sworn duty to prevent the ancient enemies of mankind from returning to power and casting the world back into Darkness. With whispers and rumor of the fabled Lost Tombs being unearthed, and the cursed Dark Stone rediscovered within, the Keepers have begun to gather their forces, sending agents to stop those that would seek out the relics and rituals needed to resurrect the corrupted sorcerer Khamuntet by the followers of his fanatical cult. Or perhaps their greatest fear, that the long-dormant gates to the Sunken City have been found...and opened, reawakening the ancient and terrible Kingdom of Pharrox. This new Hero Pack contains everything you need to play as a Keeper of the Sacred Flame. Trained from birth as saboteurs, warriors, and assassins, the Keepers of the Sacred Flame have been standing against the Darkness for millennia... and they are ready to fight!
