What's the Seithkona do?

[SafeKeeper]

Pardon me for not knowing, but I have the demo version only.

The Seithkona has no visible special abilities, nothing but a dagger, but a price of 90 gold. What's so special about her?

I gather it is something specific to the version of the demo (2.08), where the theme of the Seithkona (Utgard) is broken. I recall reading something along those lines at least.

With the Utgard theme working, the Seithkona has Astral-1/Nature-1/Death-1, making her a very potent mage for her price.

That is too bad that the demo is broken, I didnt know that either.
The Seithkona is one of the very best mages around for cheap; she is an excellent researcher, can cast decent spells (body ethereal, luck, skeletons, eagle eyes, nether bolts, etc. etc.), and is dirt cheap.

It is indeed a problem with the 2.08 version (the one used in the current demo):

Seithkona is supposed to be a mage. However, due to a bug in that version, Jotunheim cannot recruit Seithkona but can recruit Abysia's special troops.

Seithkona would be Death 1, NAture 1, Astral 1 mage, able to cast Eagle Eyes, Nether Dart and later Nether Darts for only 90 gp, and able to reanimate Longdead Giants from the very beginning. They also research very fast.


I think Illwinter really should update the demo... That bug was fixed a long time ago.
