"Dark Power" is the 3rd (and the last) DLC for Legend: Farewell Edition 8.3 and above. In this mod we control a shadowy character, a desperate echo of a cursed soul. In a quest to alter his fate - he is ready to pay any cost. Willingly signing a pact with the Heresiarch himself, now, given power and form - this dark warrior will tip the scales toward an even greater evil. Following his own sinister agenda or being merely a pawn in the mastermind's hands - little is known of this nameless stranger, or where his uneasy path may lead. This relentless rebel can wield both magic and guns. The mod combines the very best gameplay elements of all classes in Legend FW, along its own specials. The Mercenary is an ultra-versatile character, with his own custom-made story, artworks and ending. My last farewell to the realms of Hexen.
Yeah, some will say that it was inspired by Painkiller...and at first it may seem so, but the more veteran gamers will know that it is far not necessarily so. And it is indeed not.
The demon on the background is my very old mixed-media drawing of Edidolon, the 3rd Serpent Rider - thus sorry Daniel Garner, and welcome back to the realms of Hexen. When i did the drawing, i was planning to make all 4 riders of the Apocalypse in the back, - again, just as Hexen-2 goes, but something went wrong with colors and i screwed up a good part of the work (thus out of 4 you only see Death), eventually sending it to gather dust in the storage for many years. But, i never forgot about it , and finally put it to some good use!
As for the character, well a bad guy with a gun in a leather jacket, - is pretty generic, and was used all over in any entertainment category.
Yet mine was inspired by a very very old (and a rather bad) game called "Virtuoso"....the title pic on it's box, however - was more than inspiring back in the day!
So here we go, Mercenary: Dark Power. My final and the last Hexen mod.
