| Darkterror is a being for whom the laws of spacetime do not apply. He fast-forwards Back and Forth through space, Time Walking past obstacles, manipulating it to dodge any damage taken and Pausing his enemies in place momentarily. Enemies near him feel his gravitational presence and experience Time Dilation, slowing not only their movement, but also the rate at which spells can be cast. He rips open a rift, bringing all but himself to a complete standstill. Frozen in Time, enemies can only stand oblivious as the Faceless Void dismantles them from within. | |

Bio[edit]
From a place beyond time, and time beyond counting.Faceless Void
Alias:
FV
Lore:
Darkterror the Faceless Void is a visitor from Claszureme, a realm outside of time. It remains a mystery why this being from another dimension believes the struggle for the Nemesis Stones is worth entering our physical plane, but apparently an upset in the balance of power in this world has repercussions in adjacent dimensions. Time means nothing to Darkterror, except as a way to thwart his foes and aid his allies. His long-view of the cosmos has given him a remote, disconnected quality, although in battle he is quite capable of making it personal.

Trivia[edit]
- In DotA, Faceless Void's alternate/fun name is Gorzerk.
- Enigma's rival line towards Faceless Void ▶️ "Even time may fail in the face of gravity." is a reference to the time dilating effect of gravity.[1]
- ▶️ "Unkind…Rewind" is likely a reference to the old saying, "Be Kind, Rewind", a saying used to remind customers to rewind rented VHS tapes before returning them to the store.
- ▶️ "In the land of time, the no-eyed man is king." refers to the famous adage by Desiderius Erasmus: "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king."
- ▶️ "Steal your face!" is a reference to the popular lyrical phrase "Steal your face right off your head!" from the Grateful Dead song "He's Gone", often seen as an allusion to the band's wild and extensive jam sessions "blowing your mind".
- ▶️ "Foreseen is forearmed." is a modified version of the proverb "Forewarned is forearmed" which means having prior knowledge begets being prepared for future problems.
