Dranith Menacet

Dranith Menacet

Dranith Menacet was a Hollow Minion created by Martine with the help of Gaerlan; his name is an anagram of Candeth Martine.

He was made a total of three times after being killed by players--each time becoming more powerful than before.

During the The Gathering Storm event, Dranith appeared in a Hollow Lair near Lytelthorpe where he was killed. After failing his father, he was remade and was found in the Hall of Hollows beneath Fort Witshire where he was killed again.

Later on he appeared again in the Convergent Median this time as an unkillable creature with increased height. During the Repercussions event, he became very small and less powerful; after his final death, a portal to Martine's Retreat opened in Rithwic.

Lore & Dialog

Arcanum Envoy tells you, "Greetings, brave adventurer! Time is short, I fear. We have discovered a delicate situation. While the Virindi have apparently been vanquished, not all of their minions have followed suit."

Arcanum Envoy tells you, "There is a crazed Hollow Minion, who calls himself Dranith Menacet, residing at the end of these tunnels. We have never heard of a hollow who possesses an individual name. I hope this is the worst of the surprises we face in the near future."

Arcanum Envoy tells you, "Nuhmudira preserve us. If you are able to reach and vanquish Dranith, please see if he has left anything of note behind. The Arcanum is extremely interested in getting at the root of this problem. According to the Arcanum, portalspace disruptions around the nine Arrival towns are increasing daily. We need to put a stop to this immediately."

Dranith Menacet killed in the Hollow Lair (The Gathering Storm)

A flash of purple light streaks through the horizon and you hear a shattering thunderclap in the distance. A strange hollow voice echoes in your mind, 'Our conquest begins today. At this point we are merely a rumble. Soon we will be the thunder that shakes the very flesh off your bones. Our time is soon, human. Very soon.' The voice fades away, leaving you with a dizzying headache.

Your assault sends Dranith Menacet to an icy death!

You reel as a tremendous shock wave passes through you upon the vanquishing of Dranith Menacet. A horrible din rises up in the background, and then slowly fades away. You hear the voice of Dranith Menacet echo loudly in your mind, 'Do you think this means you've won? Do you really? Our plan has only begun, flesh. This is only the start. Soon you will see what your victory has meant. Empty as the very air. The only victory today is mine.' The voice slowly fades away. You see a piece of white paper lying on the ground.

Dranith Menacet killed in the Convergent Median (Repercussions)

[Player's name] has slain Dranith Menacet. As the Hollow Minion bleeds its last bit of life onto the ground, it calls to its farther in a child-like voice. "Father, I have failed you. They will find the way to your home." In Rithwic, a new portal appears.

Dranith Menacet says, "Father...Father... My body crumbles to dust, am I forgotten. I am dead. I am sorry father I have failed you and will rise no longer."
