Ruin Hunters
​
The Ruin Hunters are a team of adventurous archaeologists, four generations deep, that have spent the past century scouring the globe for ancient sites and treasures. With the legacy now being carried on by Professor Riddick Ruins and his children River, Faith and Tru, together they bring fresh insights, cutting-edge technology, and sheer determination to their ruin hunting.
​
Despite being more prepared than ever for wild expeditions, the Ruin Hunters also find themselves in more danger than ever since crossing paths with the ruthless Helions, who share a common goal of finding Atlantis and the treasure that leads to it.
Eternal Order of Helios
(AKA The Helions)
Originating in Atlantis, this ancient order of fanatical warriors holds plenty of secrets and influence. Having infiltrated all levels of modern society the world over, the Helions will stop at nothing to achieve their goal of finding the key to Poseidon’s Temple to acquire the immense power that lies within it.
​
The elite members of the Order are each given a Solar Stone ring, which provides them with eternal life. Drakus Candalus, who has been alive for practically an eternity, has terrorizing the world since before the Atlantis sank. However, it is the Helion's latest recruit who has shown the most promise in his rapid rise to power within the ranks; the young Salvador Guerrero. He is believed to be the one that the Helions have long-awaited. The one that cannot be stopped.
Pirates of the Forever Glade
The life expectancy of a pirate in the 1600's was not very long, to say the least, and that was no different for the crew of The Forever Glade, who lived a dangerous swashbuckling lifestyle. Yet that changed when they discovered the Glowing Idol of the Mixtec, for, in its presence, they can live forever! This glowing green work of exquisite craftsmanship proved to be a stone of plenty, causing vines and flowers to overgrow their ship, and it would even heal their wounds. Sailing the seas for well over three centuries, this crew of scallywags has had a vast array of endeavors and countless scars to go with them. Ever on the hunt for more loot, the pirates continue to sail the seas of the Caribbean to this very day.
The Guardians
In the K'iche' language the word "Chajij" means to guard, and that's exactly what this fearless tribe had sworn to do eleven thousand years ago... protect the Temple of the Feathered Serpent and the priceless treasure within it and for countless generations they have upheld that promise. Deep within the jungles of Central America, the Guardians have fought off many foes trying to rob their sacred temple. Not until the one bearing the three lined mark of the Shadowat arrives to claim the treasure of Atlanticu will their job as guardians be done.
