Warden is one of the Champions of Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms. They were obtained from the Simril event, but is now only available through Time Gates, purchasing a Warden Champion Pack from the in-game shop, or from patron Mirt's Cyran Knight Warden reward, which unlocks Warden in addition to the skin for 20,000 Ruby Coins.
Warden is a DPS and Support Champion, corrupted by their Hexblade, the source of their otherworldly strength. At the same time, it is also from this Hexblade that the Elder Evils of Realmspace have laid their claim to Warden, infesting their body with eldritch malignancy. They use their Hex ability to curse enemies, debuffing them and causing them to take additional damage for each stack of the Hex curse they are afflicted with.
Once unlocked, you can swap this Event Champion with Jamilah in slot 11.
Backstory[ | ]
| “ | Forged to be the jailer for a prison filled with eldritch horrors in a faraway land, Warden became corrupted by the monstrosities they sought to keep locked away. Now they journey at the behest of an otherworldly master, seeking souls for the insatiable Dark Hunger to corrupt and feast upon. | „ |
