| 348 | * ArmorPiercingAttack: His basic attack, '''Firerush!''', and ShockwaveStomp in '''Iron Time''' mode deal True Damage which can't be blocked. |
| 349 | * BareFistedMonk: Aside from '''Firerush!''' he fights entirely with martial arts. |
| 350 | * HulkingOut: '''Iron Time''' transforms him into a musclebound goliath, trading out his teleportation and '''Firerush!''' for immunity to damage, an area attack and an earthquake strike similar to Malik's. |
| 351 | * JackOfAllStats: He has respectable health and armor allowing him to HoldTheLine decently enough but his teleportation allows him to easily zip back and forth around the battlefield as needed while having excellent crowd control thanks to his abilities. |
| 352 | * MeteorSummoningAttack: '''Firerush!''' summons several comets, similar to the Rain of Fire spell. The number of meteors gradually increases as he levels up and at level 8 they gain the scorched earth effect. |
| 353 | * OldMaster: Among the oldest heroes, and needs a cane to walk, but still kicks ass with the best of them. He's also the master of Xin. |
| 354 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: He may be small but he packs a wallop! Especially since many of his attacks deal true damage. |
| 355 | * RetiredBadass: He'd long left the battlefield behind, but events in present have brought him out of retirement. |
| 356 | * SpinAttack: In his '''Iron Time''' form, his melee attack becomes a powerful spinning lariat that deals area damage. |

| 363 | !!Alric the Champion |
| 364 | [[quoteright:223:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rsz_3alric_profile.png]] |
| 365 | [[caption-width-right:223:'''''"Blood and sand!"''''']] |
| 366 | |
| 367 | A desert warrior hero who strikes down enemies with his sword. He can also call upon sand spirits to aid him. He is the last of the Detek-en-Dil to have survived the battle with the [[VillainOfAnotherStory Scarlet Sultan]] before the events of ''Frontiers''. |
| 368 | |
| 369 | ->'''Active Abilities:''' Flurry, Sand Warriors\ |
| 370 | '''Passive Abilities:''' Swordsmanship, Spiked Armor, Toughness |
| 371 | ---- |
| 372 | |
| 373 | * AnAdventurerIsYou: Alric is a DPS/Tank hybrid. Specifically ''The Meat Shield'', ''The Mitigation Tank'', and ''The Blademaster''. |
| 374 | * AssistCharacter: The '''Sand Warriors''' are in fact the spirits of his fallen brethren, who died during the final battle with the Scarlet Sultan. |
| 375 | * AttackReflector: His passive ability '''Spiked Armor''' does this. |
| 376 | * BadassBoast: even if it did fail, Alric’s declaration before taking to the battlefield against Vez’nan is still badass. |
| 377 | -> *[[HoldTheLine "This is where we hold them.]] This is where [[BigBad Vez’nan]] dies!” |
| 378 | * BadassCreed: His clan, the Detek-en-Dil had one, as follows: ''"In peace, be fair and gentle, as the water of the oasis, in war, be unstoppable and fierce as a sandstorm".'' |
| 379 | * BadassFamily: He was part of one, the Detek-en-Dil. |
| 380 | * BladeSpam: '''Flurry''' has Alric striking his enemies with his sword multiple times. He also spams the ability. |
| 381 | * BoringButPractical: Alric eschews the flashy abilities of the other heroes in exchange for a focus on just cutting enemies down in melee combat. It's generally quite effective. Special mention to his ''Flurry'' skill. All Alric does is quickly strike up to 6 times, but it has an ''extremely'' short cooldown of 6 seconds, and lets him do around 200 damage each time (before armor). With this skill, Alric can quickly cut down enemies that don't have medium armor or higher. |
| 382 | * TheBrigadier: When Vez'nan paid the Scavengers of the dunes to distract Hammerhold during the events of Vengeance, he was in charge of crushing their attacks, [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome which he managed to do very well]]. |
| 383 | * BearerOfBadNews: Acted as this to Malik when Vez'nan won, after hearing it from a survivor of the conquest. |
| 384 | * CombatPragmatist: He and his clan, the Detek-en-Dil, used the landscape of the dunes to fight the forces of the Scarlet Sultan on their terms, using a [[DelayingAction tactical retreat]] to lure them in. |
| 385 | %%* CoolSword |
| 386 | * DeadlyDustStorm: The Great Desert Spirit was this, and saved him from the might of the Scarlet Sultan's army. The spirit was also the one who gifted him the ability to summon the '''Sand Warriors'''. |
| 387 | * DesertPunk: In addition to summoning sand warriors, Alric is the first hero you get in the beginning levels (which take place in a desert location). |
| 388 | * FamilyHonour: He's carried on the way of the Detek-en-Dil decades after they were wiped out, being a fair but badass warrior of the dunes. |
| 389 | * FashionableAsymmetry: Alric is only wearing one piece of shoulder armor. |
| 390 | %% * GoodColorsEvilColors: Compared to Gerald from the first game, Alric looks rather sinister. |
| 391 | * HeroicBSOD: Like Malik, he was distraught after hearing about the fall of the Citadel in ''Vengeance''. His origin story also revealed that he had this after his clan, the Detek-en-Dil [[HeroicSacrifice heroically died]] trying to put an end to the Scarlet Sultan's reign of tyranny. |
| 392 | * HitPoints: '''Toughness''' gives him more of these. |
| 393 | * MightyGlacier: Alric does good damage but is also slow. |
| 394 | * NighInvulnerable: Alric has high armor and health, making him almost invulnerable. |
| 395 | * NoSell: His '''Sand Warriors''' on the account of being made of... well... sand, makes them immune to several enemy abilities. In particular, Parasytes and Savage Warriors cannot utilize their kill abilities (spawning a Reaper and healing respectively), Savage Hunters cannot poison them, Lycans cannot transform them into Werewolves and Vampiresa cannot lifesteal from them. |
| 396 | * PowerGlows: Alric's arm glows when he summons his '''Sand Warriors'''. |
| 397 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: He's got a pair of glowing red eyes. |
| 398 | * ScarfOfAsskicking: He wears one. Justified in that he's a desert warrior, so he needs to protect his face from sand. |
| 399 | * SentientSands: His '''Sand Warriors''' are this. |
| 400 | * ShoutOut: References ''Series/SpartacusBloodAndSand'', Music/VanHalen, and ''Literature/TheWheelOfTime'' in three of his quotes. |
| 401 | * SoleSurvivor: He is the only member of the Detek-en-Dil to have survived the battle with the Scarlet Sultan decades before the events of the game. |
| 402 | * SummonMagic: Alric can summon up to three '''Sand Warriors''' to help block and attack enemies. |
| 403 | * ThoseTwoGuys: He and Malik are pretty much the ones running Hammerhold, as the despair of Vez'nan's conquest gets the two of them to do whatever they can in order to keep Hammerhold alive. |
| 404 | * TrickedOutGloves: He has a glove that allows him to summon his '''Sand Warriors'''. |
| 405 | |

| 470 | * BattleAura: '''Dread Aura''' slows the movement speed of enemies and does slight damage to them. |
| 471 | * BottomlessMagazines: Bruxa's insane DPS is due to her skulls. In order to not make her overpowered the skulls become "depleted" after a certain amount of time. However, it is incredibly easy to replenish your skull supply. Just place Bruxa next to a powerful tower and she will never run out of skulls to use. |
| 472 | * CreepyGood: She summons skulls and talks in a witch-like voice, but she helps you as a hero unit. |

| 1284 | * AnAdventurerIsYou: She is a cross between ''The Archer'' and ''The Debuffer'' with a small dash of ''The [=DoT=] Master'' via '''Spider Bite'''. |
| 1285 | * AntiArmor: '''Quiver of Sorrow''' breaks the armor of a target each time her arrows hit them. |
| 1286 | * AntiFrustrationFeatures: If '''Spider Bite''' is ready, her ''second'' and not her first melee attack against a new enemy will activate it. This prevents it from being wasted against the wrong target by allowing the player to move her to the correct one in that timeframe. |
| 1287 | * BowAndSwordInAccord: Wields a crossbow and a blade for long and close range. |
| 1288 | * DeflectorShields: '''Shield of Shadows''' casts a barrier on herself upon taking damage. This allows her to absorb some damage without getting hurt but degrades over 4 seconds. |
| 1289 | * EnemyMine: In ''Legends'', [[spoiler:she's the one who frees Gerald from the Dark Army's prison, as she realizes that Vez'nan will need his help to defeat Iriza.]] |
| 1290 | * EvilCounterpart: |
| 1291 | ** To Mirage from ''Frontiers''. Like her, she's an assassin clad in purple who prefers attacking from range, and both have a OneHitKill skill (Lethal Strike has an instant-kill chance, Spider Bite poison lasts until the enemy dies). |
| 1292 | ** She also shares a lot of similarities to Eridan from ''Origins''. Both have a high-damage melee skill, a melee-negating skill, an arrow barrage skill, a passive skill about stacking damage, and a hero spell in the form of arrow rain. |
| 1293 | * FighterMageThief: The Thief of the three free heroes. She's fast but fragile, and her kit is made to undermine enemies' defence, deal burst damage from afar, or make them wither away from PoisonedWeapons. |
| 1294 | * TheFaceless: Like the Shadow Archers, the most you ever get to see of her face behind her hood are her eyes. |
| 1295 | * GlassCannon: Her damage is high and wears down armor per hit, she has the highest speed in the game thanks to '''[[TeleportSpam Shadow Dance]]''', but her health is low. ''However'', '''Shield of Shadows''' gives her a 4-second shield capable of taking up to 600 HP as soon as she's hit. |
| 1296 | * HitAndRunTactics: Essentially how one should play as her when fighting a GiantMook -- '''Shadow Dance''' in, soak up all the heavy damage via '''Shield of Shadows''', and lethally poison it with '''Spider Bite'''. |
| 1297 | * LongRangeFighter: She performs better at range especially due to '''Onyx Arrows''' for damage and '''Quiver of Sorrow''' to permanently remove armor, although she can hold her own in melee for a few seconds thanks to '''Shield of Shadows''' and her '''Spider Bite''' is a lethal melee attack. |
| 1298 | * {{Nerf}}: She had her AntiArmor capability of Quiver of Sorrow halved and her Hero Spell cooldown increased. |
| 1299 | * PoisonedWeapons: '''Spider Bite''' hits an enemy to inflict a poison status. Her Hero Spell '''Toxic Rain''' drops a hail of toxic arrows over an area that deal damage and also poison enemies. |

| 1305 | * TrainingFromHell: Her assassin training was described as 'torturous', and it helped shape her for greatness in the Dark Army. |
| 1306 | * YouAreAlreadyDead: '''Spider Bite''' inflicts a poison on the enemy that drains their health over time. Unlike most poison effects in the series which are temporary, it lasts until the enemy either succumbs or reaches the exit. |

| 1325 | * BadassCape |
| 1326 | * BigRedDevil: He's bigger than most human-sized units, and is one of the red horned demons from Pandaemonium. |
| 1327 | * DealWithTheDevil: Vez'Nan struck a deal with him -- if he frees Vez'Nan from Pandaemonium, Vez'Nan would give him power. Vez'Nan was freed and Oloch gained a top ranking position in the Dark Army. Of course, Oloch [[TheStarscream still wants more]]... |
| 1328 | * DoppelgangerAttack: '''Duplication''' creates doppelganger clones of himself that attack independently. |
| 1329 | * EvilCounterpart: To Magnus from the first game. Like Magnus, he can make copies of himself to boost his damage and do a magical area attack. |
| 1330 | * FighterMageThief: The Mage of the three free heroes. He's a ranged attack that deals magic damage and has an assortment of other spells to deal more damage, assist your towers, or hinder enemies by teleporting them away. However, he's also [[SquishyWizard quite squishy]]. |
| 1331 | * {{Fireballs}}: His main method of attack. '''Demonic Blast''' allows him to throw a bigger one that deals more damage. |
| 1332 | * GreenEyedMonster: Was heavily overshadowed by his older brothers, causing him to resent them. |
| 1333 | * HunterOfHisOwnKind: In ''Legends of Kingdom Rush'', Oloch is a playable hero unit. There's nothing stopping the player from pitting Oloch against his own demonic allies that can be encountered in the third campaign. |
| 1334 | * LongRangeFighter: As a SquishyWizard with all his abilities being either ranged or tower support, he should be kept away from melee combat. |
| 1335 | * PlayingWithFire: Like most of the series' demons, he uses fire-based magic. |
| 1336 | * StatusBuff: '''Hellish Infusion''' casts a spell to buff nearby towers, increasing their attack damage. |
| 1337 | * StrongerSibling: Inverted. He's Moloch's brother but is weaker than Moloch himself, and this doesn't do any favours for his pride and envy. |
| 1338 | * TheStarscream: Is plotting to take over Vez'nan's position himself. |
| 1339 | * TakingYouWithMe: Upon dying, '''Infernal Combustion''' causes him to explode and deal damage to nearby enemies, just like the other demons from the series. |
| 1340 | * WeaponizedTeleportation: His Hero Spell '''Seal of Isolation''' casts a pentagram under enemies which teleports up to 10 of them backwards on the path. |

| 1512 | * StatusEffects: '''Tidal Wave''' inflicts Stun while '''Gaze of the Naga''' inflicts temporary Slow and permanent Silence. |
| 1513 | * TentacledTerror: His ultimate Spell '''Terror From the Deep''' summons a writhing mass of tentacles from... something to deal damage over time in an area. |

| 1516 | [[quoteright:215:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/doom_tank.jpg]] |

| 1522 | |
| 1523 | ->'''Active Abilities:''' Heat Missiles, Ground Slam, Scorching Cannon\ |
| 1524 | '''Passive Abilities:''' The Expendables\ |
| 1525 | '''Hero Spell:''' Call of the Valkyrie\ |
| 1526 | '''Innate Ability:''' Spiky Slugs |
| 1527 | |
| 1528 | ---- |
| 1529 | |
| 1530 | * AnAdventurerIsYou: He is ''The Nuker'' combined with ''TheMinionMaster''. |
| 1531 | * CollisionDamage: '''Spiky Slugs''' causes it to damage enemies simply by moving over them. |
| 1532 | * DeathFromAbove: The Hero Spell '''Call of the Valkyrie''' gets a plane to drop a napalm bomb that [[KillItWithFire burns enemy units]]. |
| 1533 | * DoomyDoomsOfDoom: Right there in the name, in fact. |
| 1534 | * FireBreathingWeapon: '''Scorching Cannon''' has it ignite its flamethrower and spin around to cause good burning damage to enemies around it. |
| 1535 | * TheJuggernaut: Can't be stopped or slowed down by normal enemies, and instead runs them over for damage. However, ranged enemies and area attacks can still target and hurt him. |
| 1536 | * MacrossMissileMassacre: '''Heat Missiles''' causes the tank to fire out a swarm of missiles that home in on enemies anywhere on the screen. |
| 1537 | * MechanicallyUnusualFighter: Doom Tank itself cannot block enemies, instead running them over for minor damage, but the troops that accompany him via '''The Expendables''' can. He is however affected by ranged enemies and area attacks. Essentially, he's a grounded unit who is treated as a flying unit by enemies, with himself as a rally point for three actual grounded units. |
| 1538 | * TheMinionMaster: '''The Expendables''' spawns 2-3 soldiers to help him fight. At max level they even gain ranged capability. |
| 1539 | * TankGoodness: It's a huge flaming tank. |
| 1540 | * ShockwaveStomp: '''Ground Slam''' has it stomp the ground for a few seconds, dealing damage while stunning enemies nearby. |

| 1544 | [[quoteright:215:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eiskalt.png]] |
| 1545 | [[caption-width-right:215:'''''"Revenge is best served cold."''''']] |
| 1546 | |
| 1547 | ->''As son of Jokull, Eiskalt was born to reign in the North. However, his frequent attacks on humans made him a big problem for Arkuz and his own mother. Together, they trapped him under innumerable layers of ice, where he remained asleep until Vez'nan managed to free him.'' |
| 1548 | |
| 1549 | Jokull's rogue son who was freed by Vez'nan after being trapped in the northern mountains' ice. Introduced in ''Frozen Nightmare'' mini-campaign. |
| 1550 | |
| 1551 | ->'''Active Abilities:''' Cold Fury, Frosty, Ice Peaks\ |
| 1552 | '''Passive Abilities:''' Fierce Breath\ |
| 1553 | '''Hero Spell:''' Glacial Storm\ |
| 1554 | '''Innate Ability:''' Frozen Throat |
| 1555 | |
| 1556 | ---- |
| 1557 | |
| 1558 | * AnAdventurerIsYou: He is the AreaOfEffect ''Nuker'' and ''Status Effect Guy''. |
| 1559 | * AntagonisticOffspring: He's the son of Jokull, but his aggressive tendencies towards humans made him a huge problem for his mother. You can have him face off against her in Jokull's Nest, too. |
| 1560 | * AreaOfEffect: Every single one of his abilities hit multiple units. '''Fierce Breath''' allows his regular attacks to hit an area, with said area increasing in size per level. |
| 1561 | * BreathWeapon: His regular attack has him spit ice balls that explode if '''Fierce Breath''' is upgraded. '''Cold Fury''' has him breathe on the ground to slow enemies. |
| 1562 | * EvilCounterpart: To Bonehart. Both are dragon characters that focus on fighting groups of enemies, have an ability that summons spikes from the ground, and another ability that deals damage down the path. |
| 1563 | * {{Foil}}: To fellow dragon Murglun, who also debuted in the same expansion. Both are flying dragons with Area of Effect abilities, but he has ice-based skills to stall or slow enemies while Murglun has fire-based skills that deal damage, allow towers to deal more damage or outright kill. In terms of personality, Eiskalt is aggressive towards humans and actively attacked them while Murglun cared not about their affairs or conflicts. |
| 1564 | * HomingBoulders: His medium-speed regular ice balls home in on enemies, most noticeably shown when he targets a fast-moving one like a Clockwork Spider. Averted by the '''Frosty''' ability, which travels down the path, crushing enemies along the way. |
| 1565 | * HunterOfHisOwnKind: The player is capable of making him fight against his own Blue Wyvern and Leap Dragon brethren in the Northern levels. |
| 1566 | * AnIcePerson: All his abilities are ice-based. |
| 1567 | * {{Nerf}}: The Hammerhold Campaign update made him no longer able to target AirborneMooks with his basic attack. |
| 1568 | * PercentDamageAttack: '''Ice Peaks''' causes shards of ice to erupt from the ground, dealing 30% of an enemy's maximum health on hit. |
| 1569 | * StatusEffects: '''Cold Fury''' slows an area of enemies and his Hero Spell '''Glacial Storm''' causes a freeze effect on all enemies on screen. Finally, his innate ability '''Frozen Throat''' causes him to slow enemies he hits. |

| 1572 | [[quoteright:215:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/murglun.png]] |
| 1573 | [[caption-width-right:215:'''''"I'm lord of the flame."''''']] |
| 1574 | |
| 1575 | ->''Inhabiting the bowels of the Earth, the millennial Murglun is a young member of the imposing race of magma dragons. She has inscrutable motivations and was never interested in mortal conflicts, until Vez'nan managed to manipulate her with the gem of the heart of a volcano.'' |
| 1576 | |
| 1577 | A lava dragon whom Vez'nan manipulated into servitude. Introduced in ''Frozen Nightmare'' mini-campaign. |

| 1579 | ->'''Active Abilities:''' Geyser, Infernal Heat\ |
| 1580 | '''Passive Abilities:''' Magma Pool, Tar Maker\ |
| 1581 | '''Hero Spell:''' Eruption\ |
| 1582 | '''Innate Ability:''' Lava Blood |
| 1583 | ---- |
| 1584 | * AnAdventurerIsYou: She is the AreaOfEffect Nuker. |
| 1585 | * DamageOverTime: '''Magma Pool''' produces a lava pool with every fireball attack. Enemies standing on it take constant damage over time. |
| 1586 | * {{Foil}}: To fellow dragon Eiskalt, who also debuted in the same expansion. Both are flying dragons with Area of Effect abilities, but she has fire-based skills that deal damage, allow towers to deal more damage or outright kill while Eiskalt has ice-based skills to stall or slow enemies. In terms of personality, Murglun cared not about human affairs or conflicts while Eiskalt is aggressive towards them and actively attacked them. |
| 1587 | * MagmaMan: Her '''Magma Pool''' creates a magma pool on the ground with every attack, while '''Lava Blood''' causes magma to constantly drip from her and damage enemies under her. |
| 1588 | * PlayingWithFire: All her abilities are fire- and magma- based. |
| 1589 | * OneHitKill: She has ''two''. '''Geyser''' instantly kills a non-boss enemy, while her Hero Spell '''Eruption''' destroys a group of non-boss enemies in an area. |
| 1590 | * SmurfettePrinciple: Murglun is the only female dragon available in ''Vengeance''. |
| 1591 | * StatusBuff: '''Tar Maker''' causes towers around her to get a small damage buff. |
| 1592 | * TornadoMove: Her '''Infernal Heat''' ability allows her to flap her wings to create a whirl of fire that deals true damage over a short period of time. |

| 1594 | !! Beresad the Black Dragon |
| 1595 | [[quoteright:215:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/beresad.jpg]] |
| 1596 | [[caption-width-right:215:'''''"Time is golden!"''''']] |
| 1597 | |
| 1598 | ->''Beresad's devastating power could only be surpassed by his colossal greed. A promise of all the treasures held in the Dwarven Kingdom was all it took to secure this ancient dragon's dreaded might for Vez'nan's campaign.'' |
| 1599 | |
| 1600 | The black dragon hailing from the southern continent. First he was a mercenary in ''Origins'', then an obstacle in ''Frontiers'', and now he joins the ranks of playable heroes for the first time. |
| 1601 | |
| 1602 | ->'''Active Abilities:''' Conflagration, Fear the Dragon, Dragon Spawn, Obliterate\ |
| 1603 | '''Passive Abilities:''' None\ |
| 1604 | '''Hero Spell:''' Hellfire Shockwave\ |
| 1605 | '''Innate Ability:''' Goldlust |
| 1606 | |
| 1607 | ---- |
| 1608 | |
| 1609 | * AdaptationDyeJob: His eyes are green instead of red in the previous two games. |
| 1610 | * AnAdventurerIsYou: He is a ''Jack of all Trades'' leaning towards ''The Nuker'' since he has strong single-target damage and instakill, an AreaOfEffect attack, a somewhat durable summon that can block enemies, and an ability to force enemies backwards. |
| 1611 | * EvilCounterpart: |
| 1612 | ** To Ashbite, fittingly enough. Both are dragons with an area fire breath attack, a single-target OneHitKill, and a way to stall enemies. |
| 1613 | ** He is also one to Faustus. Both are dragons with an ability that forces enemies back up the path, a single-target nuke, and an ability that torches the ground. |
| 1614 | * {{Golem}}: '''Dragon Spawn''' allows him to summon a golem that blocks enemies and deals damage. |
| 1615 | * {{Greed}}: Beresad is easily bribed by giving him lots of riches, as what Malagar had done in ''Frontiers''. His flavor text pretty much sums it up. |
| 1616 | * {{Hellfire}}: His Hero Spell '''Hellfire Shockwave''' hits all enemies on the field and burns them dealing heavy damage over a short period. |
| 1617 | * HomingBoulders: His medium-speed regular fireballs home in on enemies, most noticeably shown when he targets a fast-moving one like a Clockwork Spider. |
| 1618 | * KillItWithFire: His main abilities all invoke this, though '''Conflagration''' allows him to set the ground on fire (as he did in ''Frontiers'' and ''Origins''), allowing this trope to go further. |
| 1619 | * MightyRoar: '''Fear The Dragon''' makes Beresad roar, scaring enemies back up the path for a few seconds. |
| 1620 | * MoneyFetish: Was bribed into working for Vez'nan when Vez'nan promised him the riches of the Dwarven kingdom. Over half his quotes are based on money too. His Innate ability '''Goldlust''' even makes enemies killed by him drop 2 extra gold. |
| 1621 | * MoneyMultiplier: '''Goldlust''' makes enemies killed by his attacks drop 2 extra gold. This is very useful against ZergRush enemies that give small amounts of gold such as Dwarf Bruisers. |
| 1622 | * OneHitKill: '''Obliterate''' shoots a powerful fireball at an enemy that instantly detonates it and damages enemies around it. |
| 1623 | * OnlyInItForTheMoney: He's easily bribed into helping others, and Vez'nan's promise of the Dwarven Kingdom's riches is more than enough. |
| 1624 | * PromotedToPlayable: While his young self was a special tower in ''Origins'' and his first appearance was in ''Frontiers'' as a stage hazard, it's not until ''Vengeance'' where he becomes fully playable as a HeroUnit. |
| 1625 | * SmartBomb: His Hero Spell '''Hellfire Shockwave''' hits all enemies on the field for unavoidable burning damage. |
| 1626 | * SuddenlyVoiced: In ''Origins'' and ''Frontiers'', he roars and never once says a word. In ''Vengeance'' he's voiced for the first time. |
| 1627 | * SupernaturalFearInducer: '''Fear The Dragon''' has Beresad perform a MightyRoar that causes nearby affected enemies to turn the other direction and flee back up the path. Interestingly, this even affects entirely mechanical things such as the Clockwork Spider and the Chomp Bot. |
| 1628 | * TalkingAnimal: Out of all the animal heroes in the franchise, he's one out of three who can talk. Odd since fellow dragon Ashbite is unable to do so. |
| 1629 | * TechnicolorFire: Like in ''Frontiers'' and ''Origins'', the fire he breathes (and the fire that fills the screen during Hellfire Shockwave) is green. |
| 1630 | |
| 1631 | !! Dianyun the Storm Dragon |
| 1632 | [[quoteright:215:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dianyun.png]] |

| 1634 | |
| 1635 | ->''Long ago, the Dragon King sought to rule all dragonkind. Dianyun put a halt to his ambitions, sealing him and his followers away in a magical artifact. With the reawakening of the Dragon King, Dianyun returns to put him back in his place.'' |
| 1636 | |
| 1637 | A fourth draconic hero introduced in ''Rise of the Dragon'' mini-campaign. |

| 1646 | [[caption-width-right:215:'''''"It's not extinction, if I remain."''''']] |
| 1647 | |
| 1648 | ->''Revenge is a dish best served cold, and no one knows it better than Grosh, who spent years and years waiting for a chance to go back to his world and get his deserved revenge. Now that he has the chance, he will bring the extinction his enemies couldn't, delivered to their doors.'' |
| 1649 | |
| 1650 | A vengeful mammoth warrior introduced in ''Primal Ravage'' mini-campaign. |
| 1651 | |

| 1660 | |
| 1661 | -->''In ages past, Isfet, a warlock of forgotten legends, harnessed dark magic to unravel the secrets of djinni curses. As he slumbered in an ancient pyramid, Vez'nan's malevolent aura returned him as an immortal force of mystical might, ready to shape the desert's destiny anew.'' |
