====== EA Lanka, Land of Demons ======
===== Lore =====
On the dark and densely forested island of Lanka, Rakshasas, demon ogres from an earlier era, still linger. Gifted with tremendous strength, they once fought the Devatas of Kailasa, but since then the most powerful of the Rakshasas have left this world for the Nether Realms. The remaining Rakshasas have captured and enslaved the monkey people of Kailasa and made them serve as warriors, hunters or food. The Rakshasas had no use for the peaceful White Ones and Kala-Mukhas, Rakshasa halfbreeds, lead the monkey people of Lanka. Since the enslavement of the apes, the ancient conflict between the Devatas of Kailasa and the Rakshasas of Lanka has been renewed. Rakshasas have an affinity for blood magic and in times of strife they are drawn to the blood of innocents.
//"The latest addition to the monkey business was Lanka, the mythical kingdom of Ravana. The nation is in many ways similar to Kailasa, but rakshasas of various forms replace the yakshas and yavanas, and blood magic and cannibalism is prevalent. I confess to having a weakness for great ape sorcerers and necromancers in semi-civilized apparel, preferably raging and howling with gory mouths. Hindu myth is rich and you could probably make a Dominions game based entirely on Hindu nations, beings and gods."

* No {{:misc:magic:water.png?15&nolink}}Water magic
* No {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth magic
===Sorceries:===

* {{path>N3}} on one-in-fourteen ??Rakshasi??s (capital-only), {{path>N2}} on ??Yogini??s off-capital
* {{path>G3}} on one-in-fourteen ??Rakshasi??s (capital-only, {{path>G2}} is much more common)

* {{path>H2}} on ??Kala-Mukha??s
Notably, Lanka lacks access to magic paths that provide {{:abilities:resist_fire.png?15&nolink}}[[Fire Resistance]] (and {{:abilities:resist_cold.png?15&nolink}}[[Cold Resistance]]).
====Boost Access====
=== Fire ===
**No native access.** {{path>B5}} can ??Bind Heliophagus?? for 1 in 4 of {{path>F4}}.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for 2 in 6 of at least {{path>F4}}.
=== Air ===
{{path>A3}} ??Raksharaja?? (~1 in 3), will need to be empowered into {{path>A4}}.
=== Water ===
**No native access.** {{path>D3}} can ??Summon Spectre?? for 7 in 16 chance of {{path>W1}}.
{{path>D2N5}} can ??Contact Lamia Queen?? for 7 in 16 chance of at least {{path>W1}}.
{{path>N1G4}} can ??Faerie Court?? Not in Cold for 1 in 3 {{path>W1}}. ??Faerie Court?? in Cold gets {{path>W3}}.
=== Earth ===
**No native access.** {{path>N1G4}} can cast ??Faerie Court?? Not in Cold for 1 in 3 {{path>E1}} or in Cold for 1 in 2 {{path>E1}}.
{{path>N3}} can ??Forest Troll Tribe?? for 1 in 4 of a {{path>E1}}.
{{path>N5}} can ??Awaken Treelord?? for 1 in 3 of a stationary {{path>E1}}.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for 1 in 6 of at least {{path>E4}}. The other Demon Lords also provide useful paths.
=== Astral ===
**No native access.** {{path>D3}} can ??Summon Spectre?? for 7 in 16 of at least {{path>S1}}.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for 1 in 6 of at least {{path>S4}}. The other Demon Lords also provide useful paths.
=== Death ===
{{path>D3}} ??Rakshasi?? (1 in 16) is hard to get with so expensive a mage, so {{path>D2}} ??Rakshasi?? (7 in 16) or {{path>D2}} ??Raksharaja?? (1 in 3) might be the best available. Only the {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood path is potentially helpful.
EA Lanka can potentially create ??Abominable Arms??, which are helpful for holding multiple {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death boosters.
=== Nature ===
{{path>N3}} or {{path>N2B2}} ??Rakshasi?? (1 in 16 for either) is hard to get with so expensive a mage. Otherwise, the ??Yogini?? is just as useful as a ??Rakshasi??. With {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood boosters to get it to {{path>B3}}, the mage can create ??Armor of Twisting Thorns??.
EA Lanka can potentially create ??Abominable Arms??, which are helpful for holding multiple {{:misc:magic:nature.png?15&nolink}}Nature boosters.
=== Glamour ===
{{path>G3}} ??Rakshasi?? (1 in 16) is hard to get with so expensive a mage, so {{path>G2}} ??Rakshasi?? (7 in 16) might be the best available. The crosspaths are not helpful. Multiple empowerments will be necessary.
=== Blood ===
{{path>B3}} ??Raksharaja?? (1 in 3) needs one more {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death path to make the unique ??The Black Book of Secrets??. Without it, a level of empowerment is necessary.
