Charon Lore

Charon, Ferryman of the Styx, is the unwavering guardian of the threshold between life and death. For a single coin he guides souls across the shadowed waters, neither judge nor executioner, but a steadfast keeper of ancient laws. Those who honor the rites find in him a silent protector; those who defy them face his relentless wrath. As the underworld trembles and lost spirits wander, Charon leaves his familiar shores to restore order to the river of the dead. Those drawn to Charon command space and control the battlefield, enforcing boundaries, shielding allies, and punishing any who dare cross the line without paying the toll.

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
