Aria (EX Rank) is currently the main playable showcase hero, featuring custom visuals, animations, and combat behavior, although the system itself is still actively being refined and expanded.
⚠️ Development Notice
Althera is in early development. Features, balance, and systems may change over time.
Developed by a solo developer. AI tools may be used for prototyping and experimentation, but all core systems and final implementations are created manually.
⚔️ Althera — A Fate-Inspired Progression Mod
Althera is a progression-driven mod focused on summoning and growth. Your companion evolves alongside you — gaining levels, scaling with your power, and becoming a core part of your journey.
As you play, you develop mana, abilities, and combat potential. Progression is continuous, shaping both your character and your summon.
🎮 How to Play
- Press H to summon your companion
- Press G to open the status screen
Your summon consumes mana while active and gains experience by defeating mobs.
When dismissed, it enters spirit form, regenerates faster, and grants Resistance I.
Manage your mana and evolve your summon over time.
