Online:Cyronin Artellian

Cyronin Artellian is an Imperial Waking Flame cultist that serves as the second boss of The Dread Cellar. He is disgraced Imperial Battlemage that was posted to the Cellar with his lover Martus Tullius as an interrogator, and they both tortured many of the inmates to extract their memories, though unlike Martus he enjoyed the work. The Spire Council eventually abandoned the Cellar, and Martus knew not what happened to Cyronin after he left but still tried to forgive him. Cyronin stayed behind, and with the help of the Waking Flame, he is now overseeing the creation of the Antecedent Cataclyst.

Dialogue
At the Confessional:
:Martus Tullius: "We stopped its harvesting, at least, but I feel far greater concentrations of this power ahead."
:Cyronin Artellian: ''"Is that you, Martus? I thought you'd lost your appetite for screams."
:Lucilla Caprenia: "A battlemage? Martus, you know him?"
:Martus Tullius: "Whatever you've gotten yourself involved in, Cyronin, it ends here."
:Lucilla Caprenia: "Let me handle the big rock, you worry about him!"
:Cyronin Artellian: "If you listen carefully, you can still hear all their screams."

During combat:
:"Can you feel it? The palpable dread?"
:"Cower and beg for release!"
:"Drown in their fear!"
:"Claw over yourselves for an escape."
:"It won't be near so quick or so gentle for you, Martus." 
:"Is that a potential with you? She still has a sparkle of innocence in her eyes. I love watching it die." 

With Martus:
:Martus Tullius: "He's channeling short pulses!"
:Cyronin Artellian: "Is that malice in your eyes, Martus? Have I rekindled your passion for causing pain?"	
:Martus Tullius: "You've always had a special place of loathing in my heart, Cyronin."
:Cyronin Artellian: "It's not the killing I enjoy most. But I do enjoy it."

:Cyronin Artellian: "Your potential didn't know the depths you were leading her down. Maybe I'll show her how deep they go."
:Martus Tullius: "Our concern for how low you've sunk ends when we bury you."

:Cyronin Artellian: "The terror wells up in this place. It wells up in you."
:Martus Tullius: "He's gathered a fair amount of energy. Be ready to dodge!"

:Cyronin Artellian: "Can you feel it? The palpable dread?"
:Martus Tullius: "Stay light on your feet, he's about to make you dance."

:Cyronin Artellian: "Why so glum, Martus? Aren't you pleased to know I turned all that pointless suffering into something greater?
:Martus Tullius: ''"I do take some satisfaction knowing you've damned your soul to Oblivion."''
