Shadow Sanctum Archeon/NPCs

A vast majority of Archeon's inhabitants are NPCs of different types and ranks, with the only exception currently being Valserion. When it was still just a game there were a certain limit to the amount data storage any one base could use, this data determined the customizability of everything. The Shadow Sanctum Archeon, before it was conquered by the members of God Eaters was one of the nine special dungeons that existed throughout the Nine Realms. This meant that once they made it their guild base the members of *God Eaters* had around 3 000 data storage available, the highest amount any base could have, when creating their custom NPCs, such as floor guardians, area guardians and other.

Archeon were known to have some of the strongest NPCs in the entire game, with the base hosting more than 15 level 100 custom NPCs.

# Noticeable NPC Groups

## Floor Guardians

**Floor Guardians** (階層守護者) are a group of NPCs who manage the defense of their own floors and have the highest authority of all NPCs in the Shadow Sanctum Archeon.

As the Supreme Being's elite chosen NPCs, the denizens of Archeon show proper respect to the Floor Guardians for their immense authority and terrifying power.

### Background

Floor Guardian's roles were similar to stage bosses of a dungeon. Each of them manages the defensive system of their own floor respectively. For that reason, all of them have the highest authority among the NPCs, and most of them (except Ant Queen) are very powerful level 100 NPC. After the teleportation, they closely serve the guildmaster Valserion. Now given more freedom and additional duties, they have been slowly gathering resources and monsters to strengthen Archeon.

### Strength

The Floor Guardians are easily considered the strongest group of NPCs with all of them (except Ant Queen) being powerful level 100 NPCs, yet there are still other NPCs outside the group who're considered to be stronger than them in Archeon. Nimue for example surpasses most of them is combat capabilities.

Among the Floor Guardians, *Abbathor* is easily considered not only the strongest Floor Guardian but the most powerful entity with Archeon, with *Leonides* and *Deus Carrion* considered as potential contenders of the title as second strongest Floor Guardians.

All the Floor Guardians were protected against ranged weapons, so they did not have to worry about sustaining damage from simple projectiles. At the Floor Guardians’ level, one would have complete immunity to unenchanted projectiles.

## Area Guardians

**Area Guardians** (領域守護者) are a group of NPCs, who guard a specifically assigned area in the Shadow Sanctum Archeon. They control the surrounding territory of a Floor Guardian.

### Background

Like the Floor Guardians who manage the defense of the whole floor, Area Guardians guard a certain area appointed to them. These types of guardians were responsible for being in charge of an individual area within a given floor as their domain specifically. As they are large in number and most of them are not very strong, the word "Guardian" usually refers to the Floor Guardians only.

### Strength

Though most of the Area Guardians are weaker than the Floor Guardians, there are some strong NPCs among them. There are Area Guardians that are optimized for battle are considered to be stronger than some of the weaker Floor Guardians like The Ant Queen. Also among them are three Level 100 NPCs such as the *Twin Knights* and *Solomon* that hold power rivaling their Floor Guardian counterparts.

## Three Beast Lords

### Background

Three high levelled beastmen type npcs that directly serve Leonides, as well as managing floor 1 to 3. They are around the same level as an Evil Lord and would regularly patrol the underground labyrinth. They act as Leonides caretakers, feeding him, washing him and anything of that sorts. Durga and Barrac are also Area Guardians.

## Seven Servants of Sin

### Background

The seven servants is a combat squad of Archeon. Its members originally only served as Archeon's last line of defense, but since the sanctum's transportation to the New World, they have been assigned additional tasks by *Valserion*. They work directly under Archeon's guardian overseer.
