Celestia Lore and Concept Art

As most of you know, KingsIsle generously welcomed me into their studio this week to sit down and talk about Wizard 101 and the upcoming Celestia expansion. You can hear the audio from the interview in Episode 19. But even more than that, they sent us home with some very tasty goodies. First is an insight into the Celestia storyline. 

From the KingsIsle Press Kit:

Long ago, the ASTRAL WIZARDS OF CELESTIA created powerful magic using the energy of the STARS, the MOON, and the SUN. The sorceress MORGANTHE, a QUEEN of the SHADOW WEB, wanted the secrets of the Celestian magic at... all costs. The Celestians REFUSED her, so she raised a DARK ARMY and sent it against Celestia. After DECADES of battle, the Astral Wizards realized their world would fall. They summoned the STORM TITAN to defeat Morganthe’s legions and to take their world to a place of safety.
The Storm Titan betrayed the Celestians by SINKING their world beneath the WAVES along with Morganthe’s invading forces. Realizing they were DOOMED, the Celestians raised mighty DOMES to protect some of their treasured city from the waves, though it was too late! They PERISHED along with MORGANTHE’S invading army. Celestia was lost to the Spiral, its SPIRAL DOOR closed forever.
Centuries later, a team of brave explorers from the SPIRAL GEOGRAPHIC SOCIETY, led by SIR THURSTON PLUNKETT, re-discovered Celestia.  They landed with an AIR-SHIP and built EXPLORATORY UNDERSEA DOMES to explore Celestia’s ruins. Plunkett and his fellow explorers soon realized that Celestia was now inhabited by a strange new culture... the CRUSTACEAN EMPIRE. Unfortunately, the explorers did not come alone to Celestia. Morganthe’s followers, the SHADOW WEAVERS, stand ready to take Celestia’s magic for their Queen.
After receiving the Spiral Geographic Society’s DISTRESS CALL, Headmaster MERLE AMBROSE of the Ravenwood School for Magic seeks any young Wizards brave enough to journey to the undersea world of Celestia and discover the secrets of its LOST MAGIC.
What will they find there?

 

Exciting stuff, right!? We also got a first look at the Morganthe character concept art as well as several others. Check those out and read more about our tour at Massively.com.
