Greetings Reagents,
[p][/p][p]If God is love, then bloodshed is his only currency. Such is the testament of our newest Prime Asset, Liliya Bogomolova, the Praying Mantis who is otherwise known as Sister Liliya. A perfect picture of cryptic beauty, a vengeful angel sent from the Heavens themselves, Liliya is woman of God on a divine mission to cut away your sins. Adorned in an intricate mask that obscures her scarred visage, Sister Liliya offers salvation to those willing to pay the price in treasure and flesh.Reagents will soon have the opportunity to visit Liliya's hallowed cottage orné in The Resort, a gaudy alpine retreat and the newest Trial Environment. The Season 5: Project Messiah update will go live Tuesday, December 9th at 10am ET and it will also feature 2 new MK-Challenges, Winter Kills Limited-Time Event (with a twist), as well as improvements to the recently introduced Invasion Game Mode to which more details will be relayed in the Patch Notes the day of the update.[/p][p align="center"][/p][previewyoutube="htVWmfYd_Gk;full"][/previewyoutube]
New Prime Asset: Liliya Bogomolova
[p align="justify"]Sister Liliya is a holy huntress; an ambush predator capable of surprise attacks with her long-reaching combat style. Within her cultish compound, she hides in plain sight amongst her mannequins, and her savage strikes can immobilize unsuspecting Reagents, forcing them into a fight for their lives. Behind the closed doors of the lavish Resort, she’s prepared a VIP auction held only for her biggest spenders… but what is the price of a life? [/p][p align="justify"][/p]
