Basic Information

The Prophets are a group of heretic Fomors serving as the primary antagonists behind Chapter 6. They worship a foreign god, "Mother Ladeca", and use their unholy powers to mutate creatures of Erinn and can create beasts known as the Apostles in their attempts to assault Erinn. They are rivaled with the Alban Knights, a human organization who dedicates protecting Erinn.

Wild animals mutated by the Prophets jut out crystal-like minerals from their body and are very aggressive, known to actively attack livestock and farms. On the other hand, when Humans are turned into Apostles, they become mutated into mindless puppets controlled by the Prophets.

Currently, nothing is known about the Prophets' origins.

Members

• Pennar: A Wolfman of the Prophets. He has a very chivalrous, knight-like spirit, but will take any action necessary even if it means sullying his honor.
• Brilluen: A Succubus of the Prophets. True to her race, Brilluen is very teasing and flirty, and this carefree and talkative attitude tends to annoy her comrades.
• Marcan: An Ogre of the Prophets. Little is known about him since he speaks very little.
• Black Wizard: This Black Wizard of the Prophets often preaches about their god, and while the other Prophets are more active, this figure constantly works from the sidelines.

Mainstream Story

Day of Liberation (Spoilers)

This part of the current article contains spoilers.

Ever since the supposed death of Cichol, Admiral Owen mentions that several Fomors became heretics to their race. These Fomors may have become the Prophets.

The Saga: Iria II (Spoilers)

This part of the current article contains spoilers.

Young Tarlach plotted to use the God Fragment within his body to open the door to another realm, summoning an otherworldly god to attack Erinn's gods in an attempt to take revenge against them due to their negative influence on Erinn. Ruairi, Tarlach's best friend, sacrifices himself in his friend's stead to achieve that goal and successfully opens the door.

The god from the other world begins to attack Erinn and its inhabitants. The Prophets would then exploit this throughout The Divine Knights.

Generation 19: The Divine Knights (Spoilers)

This part of the current article contains spoilers.

A human Prophet vaguely informs the citizens of Tir Chonaill and the Milletian about the otherworldly god and fails to convince them to become the god's Apostles.

The Milletian is attacked by Pennar who commends their strength in defeating the Apostle Girgashiy he summoned before leaving. The Alban Knights Altam and Avelin explain that Girgashiy he summoned were formerly human beings of Erinn that was corrupted from a twisted energy from another world, and that Pennar is from a group that serves a foul god and is responsible for the Girgashiy.

A pair of bounty hunters mention about an ogre worshiping some god and was captured by the Alban Knights. They also mention that the church issued the bounty for the ogre.

Trying to track the Alban Knights, Avelin asks the Milletian to stop doing so as their actions have created rumors about the knights and would jeopardize their secrecy. Brilluen appears to taunt Avelin and summons a Girgashiy that is much stronger than the previous and easily overwhelms the two. Avelin suggests they flee, but is stopped by the knight Talvish, who weakens the Girgashiy and allows them to defeat it, but Brilluen escapes. Talvish explains the Alban Knights' and the Prophets' motives and invites the Milletian to join the knights, which they agree.

Avelin, Talvish, and the Milletian then continue pursuing the Prophets. They learn from Nerys and Brenda that a "giant with fangs" was heading to "a forest near town". Using this information, they find Pennar at Abb Neagh, who flees after a brief battle. However, Avelin senses something amiss as Pennar never flees from battle and the three pursue him; Pennar summons another Girgashiy and continues fleeing, while the knights hold off the creature as the Milletian continues their pursuit. However, Brilluen and Marcan appear and the three effortlessly overwhelm the Milletian's Demigod.

Talvish explains to the Milletian that the injury the Prophets inflicted on them will eventually rupture them from inside to transform them into a Girgashiy; the only cure is intense meditation and training, but the location needed requires permission from their superiors. The Milletian is eventually allowed access to the training ground, the Cave of Remorse at Corrib Valley, where they cure themselves of the injury.

Avelin eventually manages to track the Prophets to Morva Aisle and the knights fight their Girgashiy and Pennar, Brilluen, and Marcan. After defeating the three, Brilluen playfully tries to give hints on their plan only to be stopped by Pennar and Marcan, however Pennar mentions that they will "take their queen" and they escape; Talvish realizes that they are going after Queen Eirawen. The knights then continue their pursuit while the Milletian, empowered by the knights' Crusader Skills, heads to Rath Royal Castle alone.

Single-handedly plowing through any resistance, a Black Wizard appears and turns a pair of human Prophets into Girgashiy, but the Milletian stands strong and defends Eirawen with all their might. Despite the alarming danger and the urging of her guards, Eirawen refuses to abandon the Milletian, viewing them as a god that protects Erinn from other gods. After defeating the Black Wizard's puppets, it briefly knocks Eirawen and her guards unconscious and commends the Milletian of their growth, but their power still has no leash and pushes them back effortlessly. The Black Wizard warns them that when their power finds a way, the world will face a rebirth of its own, and vanishes.

Rendezvousing with the Alban Knights, they know that Erinn is not safe as long as the Prophets are still out there, swearing to track and them down.

Generation 20: The Gate of Sanctuary (Spoilers)

This part of the current article contains spoilers.

The Prophets turn their attention into creating new Apostles from human corpses, thus forming Zebach. It proves to be more resilient to Crusader Skills until the Alban Knights resonate their Divine Link with each other. The Knights eventually learn that the Prophets intend to breach the Avalon Gate to turn the founder of the Knights, The Elder, into an Apostle.

Pihne learns what the Prophets's goal is due to her experience as an Apostle: to spread corruption in all of Erinn. To do so, they initially tested the effects of their Unholy Light on animals. They then moved up towards normal humans, moved on to their corpses, then living humans bearing Divine Light, and finally dead ones that held Divine Light. Hence their interest for the Elder, whose body rests beyond Avalon's gate.

Four shards are needed to open the gate, which are scattered all across Erinn, but somehow the Prophets manage to beat the Knights to the chase except for one attempt foiled by Caswyn, although they later successfully steal that shard.

With all four shards in hand, the Prophets are able to open the Avalon Gate and enter, which closes and prevents the Knights from following. However, Talvish resonates his Divine Link and manages to keep the Prophets confined from within, temporarily halting their movements.

Generation 21: Finale (Spoilers)

This part of the current article contains spoilers.

The Prophets are detected to be on the move; the Alban Knights are able to breach Avalon Gate with the help of The Elder's voice that is communicating to the Milletian. The Knights arrive in Avalon, where they discover a new Apostle: Hasidim, a corpse of an Alban Knight laid to rest in Avalon. They also discover the Prophets encased in crystal due to a trap, which the Elder instructs the Knights how to disarm. The Prophets are rendered unconscious, but later mysteriously escape.

Avelin later discovers in a nightmare caused by Avalon's trap that Brilluen enchanted her cherished brother's pendant, allowing the Prophets to track the Knight's every move.

The Knights encounter the Prophets in Avalon. During the scuffle, Marcan is killed, but the Black Wizard whisks Brilluen and Pennar away.

The race to the Elder's coffin continues. But on reaching their destination, everyone is shocked that the Elder's body is missing. Enraged, Brilluen decides to control the Milletian, but Cichol suddenly intervenes. Threatening the heretics Fomors with death, he casts his magic and one by one the Prophets vanish in a puff of smoke.
