| | {{:nations:ea:berytos:colossi_warrior.png?nolink }} The **Colossi** of Great Mababwe are Berytos's elites. They are **Size 4** (two-to-a-square) beings from [[Machaka-ea|Machaka]]. All Colossi in Berytos are either sworn men of the high priestesses or the high priestesses themselves, so it's tough to tell what powers are innate to them and what was attained through training; it appears that average Colossi have **12 Magic Resistance**, at least **12 Morale**, **14 Combat Speed** (naked), and **18 Map Movement** as troops (also naked). \\ Note that the Colossi are unable to [[sailing|sail]] on Berytian ships. |

They are expensive to bring into combat, as almost all of their combat power is unlocked with blood slave-intensive sabbaths or spells like ??Summon Imps?? and ??Leech??. That said, compared to Berytian Sages and Mage Pilots they are the most combat-capable mage that can be recruited out of non-capital forts for only 2 CP.\\ \\ Most Berytian Priests will be inefficient hunters prior to ??Sanguine Dowsing Rod??s or ??Blood Thorn??s. As blessers for expansion parties, Berytian Priests are quite fragile and will need to be positioned to avoid taking archer fire. | |

Reliably strong {{:misc:magic:water.png?14&nolink}}water and {{:misc:magic:air.png?14&nolink}}air paths provide great combat utility, and its randoms provide even better magic in those paths or interesting crosspaths (Astral for communions, Fire for acid spells). However, they are only available at coastal forts and cost 4 CP to recruit, meaning higher fort investment is needed on Berytos than most other nations - especially because Berytos's other fort-recruit mages aren't as independently powerful as Storm Callers. Storm Callers are also notable for providing pretty straightforward access to the ??Summon Telkhine?? spell with a few Water boosters. | |

[[turn order sequence| Magic phase]]-capable with ??Cloud Trapeze??, these mages are very flexible due to their path spread and provide reliable access to Berytos's blood summons, but really expensive to recruit. If boosted sufficiently, they could be used to cast heavily overcasted globals using their Grand Communicant ability. | |

(from Storm Callers and Brides-In-Waiting), allowing them to sort of replicate the effect of Dominions 5's terrifying ??Air Elemental??s.

(basically ??Foul Vapors??) and can cast others like ??Wrathful Skies??, they have full equipment slots in human form, and they can even magic-phase with ??Cloud Trapeze??. To top it off, their ability to forge items is immense due to their Master Smith trait. They do kill 5% of the population in their province per turn though, so they should mostly be kept away from high population provinces if possible. While Telkhines cost a lot of gems to summon, Berytos is able to boost its way up to cast this spell with a Water-random ??Storm Caller?? holding a ??Water Bracelet?? and a ??Robe of the Sea??. | |

Berytos's Melqarts are even better than the ones found in Hinnom, coming in with {{path>H3}} which allows them to cast ??Divine Blessing?? and claim thrones. They can also random Air instead of Astral, which prevents them from being ??Magic Duel??ed, and is also an easier path to magic-phase with since ??Cloud Trapeze?? has a lower path requirement than ??Teleport??. Overall, they are a great summon that fulfils the role of heavy thug and throne claimer all at once, and for a fairly reasonable price. | |
