====== EA Xibalba, Vigil of the Sun ======
===== Lore =====
Xibalba is a vast realm of dark caverns beneath the forests of Mictlan. According to legend, the sun and the moon passed through the labyrinthine caverns on their daily journey to the eastern horizon. On this journey they were guarded by the bat people, Zotz, that dwelled in the dark reaches of the Xibalban underworld. Being almost blind, they would not see and not covet the splendor of the sun. No one has seen the sun or the moon pass through Xibalba for ages, but the Zotz keep their vigil and their traditions alive. But lately the bat people has lost purpose and the priestly rulers of Xibalba look to the surface world to once more bask in the splendor of the sun and the moon. The Zotz are led by priest-kings from various cities, and only the priesthood represents centralized power. They still train the sacred Sun Guides once tasked with guarding the celestial entities through the dark world of Xibalba. The Zotz have contact with surface dwellers, primarily those of Mictlan, and have adopted some of their technology and practices. The Zotz have an affinity for blood hunting and black magic. Despite being guides of the sun, their skill in solar magic is limited. The Zotz are numerous and live in great swarming cave colonies. Numbers rather than strength allows them to win their battles.
//"Xibalba is a nation inspired by Mayan mythological concepts as expressed in the Mayan texts Popol Vuh and Chilam Balam. The Popol Vuh describes the creation of the world and other mythological concepts. It also tells of the hero twins Hunahpú and Xbalanqué and their travels to Xibalba, the Mayan underworld, through which the sun travels during the night. Ever since high school, when I first came across the TTRPG Chill, and found a creature named Camazotz, I've been intrigued by bat-gods and Mesoamerican myth. The bat-god was actually the first god made for Mictlan, when that nation appeared in Dominions 2. When I started to work on Xibalba it was clear from the beginning that it would be a Mayan nation of bat-people.\\ \\
Xibalba was also one of the first nations to get a national global spell based on its national backstory. The concept had been used when we remade the themes and carrion woods into a national spell, but we were never fond of how that worked out. The Xibalban Theft of the Sun along with the Agarthan Unleash Imprisoned Ones reintroduced the national global enchantments. ...\\ \\

====Boosting Access====
=== Fire ===
??Ah K'in Kan Ek'?? with {{path>F2}} is the best option for climbing {{:misc:magic:fire.png?15&nolink}}Fire, especially since its {{path>D1}} allows it to forge a ??Skull of Fire??.
{{path>N4}} can ??Summon Balam?? for a 1 in 4 {{path>F2B2}}. With {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood boosters, the Balam can ??Bind Arch Devil??, which has {{path>F4}}.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for a 2 in 6 chance of at least {{path>F4}}.
=== Air ===
Both ??Ah Itz?? and ??Camazotz?? have {{path>A1}} (1 in 4 chance for either). The ??Camazotz?? has an additional {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death path and slightly better stats. Empowerment is the only way to climb to the key {{path>A4}}.
{{path>N4}} can ??Summon Balam?? for a 1 in 4 {{path>A2}}.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for a 1 in 6 chance of {{path>A5}}.
=== Water ===
**No native access.** {{path>N4}} can ??Summon Balam?? for a 1 in 4 {{path>W2}}.
{{path>A4}}, which is very difficult to get to, can ??Summon Chaac??, which has at least {{path>W2}}.
=== Earth ===
{{path>E2}} ??Ah K'in Kan Ek'?? (1 in 3) has the highest {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth. {{path>E1B1}} ??Ah Itz?? (1 in 4) or {{path>E1B1}} ??Camazotz?? (1 in 4) have {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth and {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood, which is useful for climbing {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth. Using the ??Ah K'in Kan Ek'?? in combination with one of the {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}{{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}} Mages, and an ??Onaqui??, empowerment is not necessary. The ??Ah K'in Kan Ek'?? creates the {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth boosters, the {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}{{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}} Mage creates the {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth boosters requiring {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth and {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood, and the ??Onaqui?? creates {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood boosters for the {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}{{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}} Mage.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for a 1 in 6 chance of {{path>E4}}.
=== Astral ===
**No native access.** {{path>D3}} can ??Summon Spectre?? for a 7 in 16 chance of {{path>S1}}.
{{path>F2B4}} can ??Bind Arch Devil?? for a 1 in 4 chance of {{path>S3}}.
{{path>E3D1}} can cast ??Hidden in Sand?? and ??Hidden Underneath?? which give at least {{path>S1}}.
{{path>D3}} can ??Summon Spectre?? for a 7 in 16 chance of at least {{path>S1}}.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for a 1 in 6 chance of {{path>S4}}.
=== Death ===
{{path>D4}} ??Onaqui?? (1 in 4) is high enough and has the right paths to make many {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death boosters without any empowerment.
EA Xibalba can make all the extra arms items, which are useful for {{:misc:magic:death.png?15&nolink}}Death boosters.
=== Nature ===
{{path>N2}} ??Onaqui?? (1 in 4) can make an ??Armor of Twisting Thorns??. A {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth random with an {{:misc:magic:earth.png?15&nolink}}Earth booster and a {{:misc:magic:nature.png?15&nolink}}Nature booster might be able to make the unique ??The Tome of Gaia??. Without ??The Tome of Gaia??, a level of empowerment is necessary.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for a 1 in 6 chance of at least {{path>N4}}.
EA Xibalba can make all the extra arms items, which are useful for {{:misc:magic:nature.png?15&nolink}}Nature boosters.
=== Glamour ===
**No native access.** {{path>D3}} can ??Summon Spectre?? for a 7 in 16 chance of {{path>G1}}.
{{path>N3}} can cast ??Forest Troll Tribe?? for a 1 in 4 chance of {{path>G1}}.
{{path>B8}} can ??Bind Demon Lord?? for a 3 in 6 chance of at least {{path>G4}}.
=== Blood ===
An ??Onaqui??, even without the {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood random, can climb the {{:misc:magic:blood.png?15&nolink}}Blood path without help. It can even create the unique ??The Black Book of Secrets??.
