The Cryptic are powerful enemies. They are very anti-magic, and use the Nueropho-Arachni. They bring the downfall of the Gladiators.They should never be approached, unless one is certain it will be safe, for a number of reasons. The leaders of this group are Drasicrain, a short but feared warrior, and Millic, who has the powers of bueaty, malevolence and persuasion.
