The Sheruvian harbinger is a handsome woman with hypnotic eyes and fair skin. Her demeanor appears emotionless, but you can see some sort of evil fire burning within those dark pupils. A sleek, black breastplate covers most of her torso, and you can see it is made of fine quality. The mere look of the harbinger reminds most people of the tales of the Harbinger of Chaos, spawned forth to do great evil.
Hunting strategies
Sheruvian harbingers are immune to Mind Jolt (706).
Other information
One of the hazards of hunting the Sheruvian monastery is that the harbingers are much higher level than the monks and initiates, and they will not un-generate in any reasonable amount of time, even if you leave the area entirely. It is relatively common for them to be found lingering around the corridor near the hidden exit, where you have hard RT from searching and the hooded figures can knock you down with elemental waves. When they immobilize you in the monastery and your DS drops, the creatures of the area have weapons that will spirit drain you each time you are hit.
- Messaging
A Sheruvian harbinger suddenly stops still, seeming to be listening to something for a moment. A Sheruvian harbinger adjusts her armor, her eyes wary. A Sheruvian harbinger begins to wave a pale arm over her head in an eerie, hypnotic dance, chanting under her breath. A Sheruvian harbinger pauses to let out a chilling wail. A Sheruvian harbinger shrieks, "Sheru! I shall find a soul for you this night!" The harbinger throws back her head and shrieks, "Sheru! Take this puny mortal soul!" (when they kill you)
Behind The Scenes
Originally "Heralds of Night", these were servants of the Unlife (Chaos), whose origins were lost to the Wars of Dominion. Heralds were a kind of status symbol for powerful dark lords, such as the Dragonlord Oran Jatar, and Scalu (Sheru) was known to have his own host of them in his I.C.E. age history. There was an anecdote by Andraax of the Battle of Meagris in 6820 Second Era where his heralds were leading an army of tens of thousands of demons, following an Ordainer, all of whom were serving the avatar of Scalu who was suddenly and unexpectedly stopped by Cay (Kai). Heralds were said to ride black unicorns, but those of Scalu used nightmare steeds. Their minds were completely dominated and controlled by their swords, which were designed to mockingly represent a similar sword held by Valris (Lumnis). This is why they have some mental immunities.
