Characters: At first only ‘Lord’ alone attacks the enemies but after unlocking new ‘Shadows Heroes’ they both attack together afterward. You can maximum have 4 Shadows Heroes along with the Lord. There are three types of Shadow Heroes i.e. ‘Beast’, ‘Undead’ and ‘Wraith’ heroes along with 3 different quality heroes ‘normal’, ‘rare’ and ‘epic’. These Shadow Heroes acts as the lord’s underling. To unlock them, you need shards which you get through ‘Shadow Kill’ Achievements and chests. You can upgrade Lord and Shadow Heroes with ‘Golds’ and ‘Soul Stones’.
