Hurion-glaace

Hurion-glaace is the first boss in the Silver Gates raid. Hurion-glaace is one of the few remaining true Elders left, and one who has been with Xanaxath from the start. Hurion-glaace has dedicated his life to protecting the fortified gates leading to the Silver Gates themselves. Hurion-glaace will attack anyone who is not an Elder on sight, this includes the Thotazlxaxian Loyalists, the Broken Sky, and even the players.
Hurion-glaace might allow the heroes through the gates, if they defeat him in armed combat and convince him they mean to help.
==Abilities==
There are no phases in Hurion-glaace's fight, instead countless adds will spawn, from both Thotazlxaxian Loyalist camps and Broken Sky camps. Hurion-glaace will also bombared the arena with siege attacks form the walls, which will progresively get more powerful and faster the longer the fight lasts. Adds will begin to spawn in greater numbers the longer the fight goes on.

*Star Storm: Will raise his spear in the air, channeling void power. Will call down a star storm, striking random areas of the area for 75,000 damage in a 3 yards radius. This ability lasts for 30 seconds.
==Preparation and Tactics==
Since much of the damage in this fight is avoidable, every player should pay as close attention to the fight as possible. If you're using any sort of voice communication, keep talking down to a minimum so as to not distract players. This fight is recommended to have 3 tanks, 2 if your off-tank is good enough to handle picking up both sets of adds. DPS should primarily focus on taking down Hurion-glaace, off-tanks should call for help only when the load of adds gets to extreme. When ever a Broken Sky Sky-Splitter or a Thotazlxaxian Commander enter the fight, all DPS should switch and take down that add as fast as possible.
==Quotes==
Intro
*Hurion-glaace: And so it comes to pass, the ancient war of time and space, of the Elders and of the Outer Old Gods, comes to our peaceful gates. So too does the Broken Sky, the loyal soldiers of the great Inferno fight us as well. But in all my years of guarding this gate, the millenia that I have patrolled these very walls, I never once thought I would have to fight mortals, creatures from the universe beyond ours. Times are changing, and I fear it is for the worse.
*Player: Such is not the case! We are allies of Xanaxath, we come to help him! It is us who slew Thotazlxax in the siege of Valun'tsia, and us who held back the Broken Sky siege on our own lands! We are friends, not enemies!
*Hurion-glaace: How can I trust you when you charge alongside our sworn enemies? When I see you, with swords and shields and staves held high, charging next to the Thotazlxaxian Loyalists and the Broken Sky? No. You shall not get past me this day.
*Player: Please hear us out! We do not charge with these two, we come to aid you in the defense of your city!
*Hurion-glaace: Hmmmm... It is true you do not bear the mark of the Inferno, and you are not Thotazlxaxian Manics, but one can never be sure in this era. Come then, I shall let you pass if you can defeat me, and hold off the Broken Sky and the Thotazlxaxian Loyalists.
*Player: We accept your challenge.
*Hurion-glaace: Then come mortals! I have not been guarding this gate for countless millenia just to stand here!
Abilities:
*My spear lays sleeping, when it wakes the earth shall tremble.
*Elders! I call upon you now! Aim for these fools! Fire on my target!
*Jutu zu mar! I call upon the star storm! Rain down upon all who challenge me!
*A rupture of time, a bomb to end your epoch.
Killing a Player:
*Your time has come.
*None escape its passing.
Defeat:
*Hurion-glaace: Hold you attack mortals!
*Player: You are defeated, now you must hold up to your end of the deal.
*Hurion-glaace: I will open the gates for you, but in doing so I could doom us all. Undoubtedly both Thotazlxaxian Loyalists and Broken Sky forces will stream in after you. I trust in your might mortals, don't let my faith be blind.
*Player: Worry not gate keeper, we will not fail you. We will save Xanaxath and stop this siege.
*Hurion-glaace: I pray that you can.
