Lilith Games will introduce a new hero in the AFK Journey 1.3.3 patch update, Athalia, Harbinger of Justice. She is a Rogue class hero who belongs to the Celestial Faction. The hero deals Physical damage and has an attack range of one tile.

Athalia is a DPS character whose Ultimate skill’s passive effect turns her into a Lance after she dies. However, the Lance will have 35% less attack stats than the living Athalia. Players can use the hero in Story, AFK Stages, Dream Realm, and PvP game modes, availing her high damage output.

As a Celestial hero, she can only be acquired from the Stargaze Station. The character will also be available for exchange at the Guild Store.
