Phoenix Knight: Powerful warriors who blast their foes with solar fire while calling healing light upon their allies. Their solar fire attacks will strike as either fire or light damage, whichever will hit their target the hardest, and their potent healing and cleansing abilities make them tough opponents to bring down.

Mind Knight: Psionic warriors who strengthen their mental abilities by tapping into their inner magic. Adept at telekinesis, telepathy, and teleportation, they are mobile scouts who can quickly get a lay of the land and sow chaos among their foes with physical and mental debilitations, or even outright compulsions.

Storm Knight: Swift skirmishers who rely on extreme mobility and powerful lightning magic to strike their foes down and avoid reprisals. Extremely fast and difficult to pin down, they can cast entire enemy units into disarray with their wealth of area attacks. All mage knights can cast while they fight, but experienced storm knights are also able to fight while they move.

Earth Knight: The heaviest of infantry, earth knights hammer their foes with physical and natural forces while shielding themselves with the power of the earth. Highly resilient in the face of any attack, earth knights provide a slow and steady offense supported by powerful gemstone shields and the endurance of a living mountain.

Sea Knight: Healers first, fighters second, battle mages a somewhat distant third, while sea knights lack the raw offensive power of other mage knights, they make up for it with amazing personal defense and recovery abilities. And though their attacks may be individually weak, like the sea itself, they are able to wear down even the strongest defenses eventually, eroding their opponents away with gradually strengthening spells, making them terrors in a battle of attrition.

Mana Knight: Experimenting pioneers who do amazing things with raw magical energy. They have the most conventional magical training of the mage knights, even if they sometimes put it to unconventional use. Their arcane attacks can overwhelm the powers of other spellcasters, and while they lack the scope of power of full-fledged archmages, they are masters of the fundamentals of the various arcane schools.

Mage Knight 1.6.0

Select your Escorts 1.5.10

Allows you to choose which escorts you will encounter at the start of the game.
You may change the future encounters in the game menu (Esc).

There is an option to choose a random escort in case you just wanted to guarantee some unlocks before continuing with the base game's behavior.

Note: You're only supposed to be able to choose the lost tinker once. (Must have the Embers of Rage DLC and unlocked by playing in the Orcs campaign)
Note: Unfortunately the only time that addons can get the possible escort types is after the random escort quest is assigned.
This means escorts added by other addons will not be available for selection, but will still be possible to find using the random selection.

To reach me faster, please leave a message on the Steam Workshop page. I don't get notifications on te4.org so I may take longer to reply.

Forbidden Cults 1.6.7

Official Expansion!

Not all adventurers seek fortune, not all that defend the world have good deeds in mind.
Lately the number of sightings of horrors have grown tremendously. People wander off the beaten paths only to be found years later, horribly mutated and partly insane, if they are found at all. It is becoming evident something is stirring deep below Maj'Eyal.
That something is you.

Forbidden Cults is a big expansion for Tales of Maj'Eyal to let you explore the horrors that lurk beneath the surface, to delve in long lost knowledge and lore and as usual to die a lot!


Forbidden Cults makes two new classes available to play:

  • Writhing One: Give in to the corrupting forces and turn yourself gradually into an horror, summon horrors to do your bidding, shed your skin and melt your face to assault your foes. With your arm already turned into a tentacle, what creature can stop you?
  • Cultist of Entropy: Using its insanity and control of entropic forces to unravel the normal laws of physic this caster class can turn healing into attacks and call upon the forces of the void to reduce its foes to dust.

Both those classes use a new resource called Insanity that gradually makes you both more chaotic and powerful as it fills up.


Forbidden Cults makes two new races available to play:

  • Drem: A corrupt subrace of dwarves, that somehow managed to keep a shred of sanity to not fully devolve into mindless horrors. They can enter a frenzy and even learn to summon horrors.
  • Krog: Ogres transformed by the very thing that should kill them. Their powerful attacks can stun their foes and they are so strong they can dual wield any one handed weapons.


Forbidden Cults adds many new zones for you to explore and die in:

  • Kroshkkur: An ancient Sher'tul Fortress laying half in ruins that serves as a focal point, and home, for all kinds of creatures seeking lost knowledge.
  • The Maggot: A huge living corrupted worm about to destroy Kroshkkur! Teleport inside and save your sanctuary of horrors!
  • The Godfeaster: Deep undergroud the ground shakes as ... -- redacted by corrupt forces --
  • The Scourge Pits: On the south of the Iron Throne lays a fool pit of ... -- redacted by corrupt forces --
  • Forbidden Tomes: Find special artifact books of ancient lore. But, read at your own peril, for the story they tell may very well suck you in... quite literally.
    Maybe you will even find The One That Writes...
  • Occult Egress: A strange, extremely old, contraption of unknown origin. It seems to require some kind of code sequence to activate. Maybe you will find some during your adventures?
  • The Entropic Void: So you think you are strong? Powerful? Invulnerable? In the end, entropy always wins, as you will learn...


What would an expansion about horrors be without a bunch of new horrors to torment you with? Please give a warm welcome to:

  • Searing Horrors: You liked luminous horrors? You loved radiant horrors? You will absolutely adore their searing big brothers!
  • Nethergates: It sleeps. Maybe it should stay that way.
  • Netherworms: Vampiric worm masses that are bound to tickle your fancy! And tickle hard.
  • Fearful Symmetry: Geometry has never been so lively!
  • Entropic Shards: Take an entropic crystal, shatter it with tentacles. And die.
  • : And more ...


"DarkGod, is that all?" Obviously not! You will also find your usual addition of:

  • Lore: Delve into the dark forgotten secrets of the world, where sanity is a very tenuous idea.
  • Artifacts: Discover new objects of power and use them to further your own goals.
  • New wyrmic tree: Unlock the scourge drake for your wyrmics.
  • Glass Golem: Unlock the glass golem option for your alchemists.
  • Events: Discover new strange contraptions in familiar zones. What could go wrong?
  • Achievements: Because there can never be enough!

Merchant Rerolls 1.3.1

This addon adds the ability to 'reroll' a merchant item.

More specifically, this allows you to spend 400 gold if you get an item that you don't like, to gain a brand new one.

Be warned that once an item is gone, it will forever be gone, and you will never get it back.

Better Item Description 1.6.6

This addon makes items description easier to read and determine on a glance it's usefulness
- sorts all stats by category - DPS/DEF/MISC
- item's passive power always the same blue color (not a random blue-yellow-pink-green)
- item's usable power - always yellow
- all rarity categories are displayed
- encumbrance value moved to the right under item name
- "on hit" powers always green
- "Stats" have an ornage highlight and placed before others because it's most important one
- Removed many extra-explain details, which any veteran player would not want to read each time
for example, stat "S.pwr/crit" shorten from "Spellpower on spell critical (stacks up to 3 times)"
means you do remember that it can stack only 3 times, and is not so super important anyway
- DLC supported - Orcs/Ashes
- few bug-fixes along the way

Most important thing to remember
- Requirements only shown for those you don't meet. If you want to see all reqs - hold CTRL
- "Phasing" stat means - "Damage Shield penetration", the name was taken from the source and looks good to me, and short enough
- The "-" minus sign at the end of stat mean immunity or reduction of some sort, for example "Blind-" = "Blindness immunity",
- "Max.summ" = Max wilder summons
- "Summ.HP.reg" = Life regen bonus (wilder-summons)
- "Def/telep" = Defense after a teleport
- "Res/telep" = Resist all after a teleport
- "Dur/telep" = New effects duration reduction after a teleport

it's not recommended to use this mod if you'r new to the game

    Class Talents

    Spell / Storm Channeling1.30
    • Effective talent level: 0.0
      Use mode: Passive
      Is: a spell
      Description: You surround yourself with supernatural winds, granting you resistance to the forces of the storm and freedom of movement. You increase your Lightning Resistance by 2%, your Stun and Pin Resistance by 1%, and your Lightning Resistance Cap by 0%. You also slow incoming projectiles by 1%. Resistances and projectile slowdown scale with Dexterity. The defensive style of a Storm Knight favors avoiding, rather than resisting, direct physical attacks, so you also take a -0% penalty on your Physical resistance and caps.
      Embrace the Storm
    		0/5
    • Effective talent level: 0.0
      Use mode: Passive
      Is: a spell
      Description: You move and fight like the wind. You gain 1% crit chance (physical and spell) and 2% movement speed. These bonuses scale with Dexterity.
      Storm Skirmisher
    		0/5
    • Effective talent level: 0.0
      Use mode: Passive
      Is: a spell
      Description: You avoid attacks with lightning speed, gaining a 1 bonus to Defense. At raw talent level 3, you are so fast that while on the move you can potentially dodge attacks from even the most skilled of enemies, receiving a 1% evasion chance for 0 turns every time you move. At raw talent level 5, you are fast enough to use the cover afforded by enemies to avoid even undodgeable attacks, receiving a 0% chance to negate all damage from any given attack for 0 turns any time you move into a tile adjacent to at least one enemy and increasing the evasion bonus by 2% per such enemy. Effects scale with Dexterity.

      Thanks to your speed and ability to use air magic to control your momentum, the evasion and damage negation chances apply even if the movement was forced or from a talent.

      Your skill at avoiding attacks also allows you to turn them to your benefit. Starting at raw talent level 2, you gain a 1% chance to counter attack for 22% damage any time a melee attack misses you. At raw talent level 4, you have an equal chance to deflect projectiles to an adjacent square, and when a melee attack misses you you also have a chance to maneuver the enemy into attacking a different, adjacent enemy (if any).

    		0/5
    • Effective talent level: 0.0
      Use mode: Passive
      Is: a spell
      Description: You are a whirlwind of death, moving among your foes and striking them down in a blur of violent motion. Every time you move, you make an attack against all adjacent opponents for 2% weapon damage (this scales with your attack speed). You can only attack a given foe in this way once per turn, and you can't attack a target you already made a melee attack against previously in the turn.

      At raw talent level 3, you get 0 bonus free movements every time you kill an enemy, allowing you to easily move onto the next.

      At raw talent level 5, your sheer speed allows you to make Whirlwind Dervish attacks even when moving due to talents (including the swap movement from this talent), and your ability to use air magic to control your momentum allows you to do so even when forced to move by enemy talents.

      Effects scale with Dexterity.

      Cooldown: 20
      Travel Speed: instantaneous
      Usage Speed: Instant (0% of a turn)
      Is: a spell
      Description: Summon up a rush of wind to hasten your movements. This allows you to move up to 2 times per turn as a free action for the next 4 turns, but each movement also lowers the duration by one turn. Duration can crit, and both the number of free movements and the duration scale with your movement speed. At raw talent level 3, the summoned winds will also free you of pins and dazes. At raw talent level 5, it will also free you of slows. You may act normally between your free moves.

      When you learn this talent, you will also learn the Wind Whisk talent, which allows you to spend free moves to instantly move others.

      This talent can be triggered by Eldritch Combat.

      Description: You vanish into the clouds, riding a bolt of lightning to elsewhere, teleporting you randomly within a large range (126). This will teleport you at least 15 tiles if possible.

      The lightning strike at your endpoint will illuminate the area with a radius of 4, dealing 29 damage to all foes within. Enemies who weren't targeting you will be surprised, losing their next turn.

      At raw talent level 3, the flash of lightning will also blind affected enemies for 2 turns.

      At raw talent level 5, the clap of thunder will also daze affected enemies.

      The range will increase with your Spellpower.

      This talent can be triggered by Eldritch Combat. When it is, it just triggers the lightning strike, not the teleport.

      At raw talent level 3, every tile the bolt passes through will be covered in a raging lightning storm for 2 turns, dealing 20 lightning damage per turn to any enemies within.

      The Advanced Energy effect of your Storm Invocation talents buffets your foes with wind, either pulling them towards or pushing them away from the tile you center your targeting on, up to one tile per 100 points of the talent's base power. Push or pull varies by talent; Storm Bolt pulls.

      Your control over the elements of the storm is absolute; Storm Invocation talents will not harm your allies.

      If you wield dual weapons, you shift fluidly from offense to defense and back again, your whirling weapons creating a reflection shield.

      If you wield a two-handed weapon, you throw yourself into a berserk fury, denying any injury. This functions as a shell shield (the resistance gained is equal to the proportion of your max life that the shield value would cover).

      If you wield a weapon and shield, you ward off any attack that may come, creating a regular damage shield - but at double strength.

      If you wield a single weapon (or are unarmed), you guard yourself as best you can, and use the reprieve to get a second wind, creating a time shield (though this does not reduce incoming effect durations).

      If this attack triggers Eldritch Combat, it will always trigger a Blast attack, when that spell is available.

      Description: The iconic power of the Mage Knights, you channel the raw energy of your magic outwardly as you fight, saving the effort of taking active control of your power and allowing it to flow freely. The power you are channeling is visible in an aura around you, bright enough to increase your light radius by 2. At base, channeling your power outwardly adds 10 damage to all attacks of the energy type appropriate to your mage knight offensive spells. This scales with the higher of Spellpower or Mindpower.

      In addition, your first successful melee attack each turn grants a 23% chance to trigger one of various Mage Knight talents instead of dealing the bonus damage. This quarters both the cooldown and Essence cost of the talent, and can only happen once per turn. The talent operates at two-thirds normal power. Triggered talents are determined randomly, but with prioritization based on how useful they are in the moment (spells that restore life are more likely to trigger when low on life, spells that provide buffs are more likely to trigger when you aren't heavily buffed, etc). Spells of higher talent level are generally prioritized over those of lower level.

      If you are wielding a two-handed weapon, triggered talents operate at full power.

      If you are using a shield, when you trigger a talent, you also have a 50% chance to automatically Block. Defensive talents have their priority increased when using a shield.

      If you are using two weapons, when you trigger a talent, you have a 50% chance to trigger the talent a second time at no further resource cost.

      If you are using a single one-handed weapon (or unarmed), your chance of triggering a talent is increased by half.

      Note that since Essence users rely on channeling minimal amounts of mana, they can't wield staves to the same effect as others. The staff Accuracy bonus is reduced to one-fifth normal for characters with an Essence pool.

      Your power modifier for a low Essence applies to the bonus damage and to your chance of triggering a talent. Note that since it will also apply to the power of your talents normally, this means that Eldritch Combat is doubly impacted by a low Essence - pace yourself!

      Some Mage Knight talents have "Advanced Energy" effects. These effects apply when you manually use the talent while Eldritch Combat is active. Many of these advanced effects may be occasionally inconvenient, so if you don't wish to trigger them you may deactivate Eldritch Combat to prevent them.
      Eldritch Combat
    		1/5
    • Effective talent level: 1.3
      Use mode: Passive
      Description: While Eldritch Combat allows a Mage Knight to channel their magical power outwardly while they fight, Eldritch Body lets them channel it inwardly, directing the flow of it through their body to augment their speed and power, and help them withstand powerful forces.

      When you first learn this talent, you may substitute Magic for Strength and Dexterity for purposes of equipment requirements, and you substitute magic for all other abilities for purposes of weapon damage, and you gain the ability to wear all forms of armor. Of course, if you have the physical aptitude to wield the weapon normally, that still helps to some degree; you add 6% of the normal ability damage modifiers into your weapons as well; weapons that can use both Strength and Dexterity will convert the Strength modifier to a Dexterity modifier as well if your Dexterity is higher than your Strength. In addition, using your magic to strengthen, hasten, and reinforce your body allows you to make the most of your fighting style:
      -When armed with two weapons, they may both be one-handed weapons. For each dagger that you wield, your offhand damage modifier increases by 25% (if you wield a single dagger or a dagger with a shield this modifier will apply to the bonus attack from them as well).
      -When armed with a two-handed weapon, any time you attack you make a second attack for 25% normal damage.
      -When armed with a shield, any time you attack you also execute a shield bash for 50% normal damage.
      -When armed with a single weapon (or unarmed) any time you attack you also make an unarmed strike for 50% normal damage. When fully unarmed you get a +25% bonus to your combat speed.

      Your ability to magically reinforce your body allows you to mitigate overwhelming forces, although this takes a lot of effort and your strength will fade rapidly when you do it, possibly even to the point of death. You reduce all damage received from other characters by potentially as much as 13%. However, the actual reduction is multiplied by both the percentage of your current effective life over your maximum effective life (which includes damage shields and negative life threshold), and the percentage of the damage over your current effective life. So this protects you best when you are at high health and facing high incoming damage - lesser attacks aren't worth the effort to mitigate, and as your strength fails so does your ability to exert that sort of effort. The calculation accumulates damage over the course of one turn, so multiple attacks all coming in the same turn will be reduced according to their combined total compared to your initial life. If the final percent reduction is below 17%, no reduction will occur at all. All damage mitigated by this effect is then returned as irresistible damage over the next 5 turns as your strength fades.

      Description: Your power flares, increasing all damage by 10% for 0 turns and allowing you to ignore the power reduction for low Essence.

      At raw talent level 2, you also boost your Physical Resistance.

      At raw talent level 3, you also boost your Physical Critical Chance.

      At raw talent level 4, you also boost your Spell and Mind Critical Chance.

      At raw talent level 5, you also boost your Critical Multiplier.

      This talent can be triggered by Eldritch Combat.

      Additionally, as a passive effect, you are able to overcome unworthy opponents with trivial effort. Your Essence regeneration increases by 1 for every turn beyond 10 that you have both been in combat and not received any damage. Leaving combat or taking damage immediately resets this bonus to 0. (In practice this is almost never going to matter in actual play and is merely a convenience for using training dummies and such, but who knows it might do something occasionally).

      Use mode: Passive
      Description: It is important for a Mage Knight to pace itself during battle, but that need not mean standing idle. When you pass a turn in combat (allowing you to regain Essence), you go on guard for one turn, gaining 9% resist all, 5% resist all cap, and 13% new effect reduction.

      At higher talent levels, if you are at maximum Essence when you pass a turn, then you can take advantage of the breather recuperate in other ways:

      At raw talent level 2, you recover 0 life.

      At raw talent level 3, all of your detrimental effects have their durations lowered by 1.

      At raw talent level 4, one of your talents will cooldown an additional turn.

      At raw talent level 5, another talent will cooldown an additional turn.
