Characters, Enemies and Final Enemies

Apart from the main characters – Stevie and Carmen – Glow features 10 types of enemy and four different final enemies, which appear after every ten levels. The looks and skills of each of the ten types of enemy are very different.

Characters

Stevie: Born in New Age City, he is now 28 years old. His parents died early and as he does not have any siblings he had to learn to survive on his own. Not an easy task in New Age City, the "City of Criminals". So Stevie learned how to use weapons from an early age and today he is a master of swordplay. Leaving school after his parents’ death, he never had the chance to train for a normal job so he is a professional criminal and earns his keep by mugging.

Carmen: 27-year-old Carmen came to New Age City only a few years ago. She started learning the use of weapons on her parents’ farm in Texas. She never really enjoyed life in the countryside and she always wanted to go to a big city to experience some adventures and to stand on her own two feet. She would finally get the chance of an adventure in New Age City – but a bigger one than she could have ever imagined.

Enemies

Skeleton: The skeleton served as a simple foot soldier during the times of the Great Wars between Heaven and Hell. Ever since those times ended its importance in Hell has decreased significantly and it does not have any skills worth mentioning.

Hunchback: The hunchback is a creature which is afflicted with mutations. He was one of those creatures who were saved from eternal torture but nonetheless was punished with mutations and with having to wander around eternally in Hell.

Crawler: The crawler is one of Hell’s malicious mutations and he is a servant to the higher creatures of the netherworld. He is occasionally employed as a bodyguard. However, this creature has been increasingly isolated from the higher creatures throughout the past millennia due to its low talent.

Virgin: The virgin is a sword fighter and was used as an effective combatant as far back as the time of the Great Wars. Virgins guard important passages so that no one can intrude there.

Bomb Dragon: The bomb dragon is one of the pets of the higher creatures. On top of being excellent fighters – as they are the only ones who can drop bombs – they are also very difficult to tame. However they are much too weak to transport other creatures.

Mork: The mork was employed as a scout and runner during the time of the Great Wars. He is very quick but all he can do is kick his enemies out of the way.

Rocketeer: The rocketeer is one of Hell’s elite units. Not only is he very swift – even swifter than the mork – but he can shoot and he is impressively robust. You should first and foremost take cover or use a time spell when you are being approached by several rocketeers.

Witheg: You can almost feel pity for this creature, who has no lower part of the body. It cannot move and it was placed at strategic locations during the time of the Great Wars. That is still the case today and these creatures are spread cleverly throughout the different areas in order to block the paths. What makes these creatures so dangerous are the stones which they throw continuously.

Lightning Witch: This witch – another unfortunate mutation – is the only one who can shoot lightnings – and those are always lethal. She reacts very quickly and you should definitely be the first one to open fire.

Fire Dragon: The fire dragon is hard to tame and one of the reasons why it is so unbearably hot in Hell. While it can be fought effectively with lightning strikes and guns it is more advisable to avoid it and to refrain from touching it.

Final Enemies

Sword Master: The Sword Master had been used as a perfect lone fighter during the time of the Great Wars. He was very resistant to lightnings, fire and gun bullets. As a result of his contributions to the Wars he was made commander of the skeleton armies and the virgins.

Dragon: Satan’s pet is the biggest dragon of them all. It is much too heavy to fly but it is an unparalleled creature of destruction due to its flames. Despite not being able to communicate verbally it can still command all other dragons. Mythologists suggest that this dragon is the mother of all dragons.

George Devil: Satan’s best buddy has often been used as his double for missions on earth. He was one of the leading commanders especially during the 400 Year War. George does not have any specific skills but he is a crafty commander and he has got a powerful lever.

Satan: The all-powerful Satan, King of the Netherworld. He lives as long as God and he has been waging this war since time began.
