The story of The First Descendant revolves around a group of humans who were given mysterious powers through awakening that they had to use to protect humanity from invaders. They were called the Descendants, and it is their mission to save mankind from extinction. Each of the Descendants has different skills, allowing them to fulfill different roles in a team. For example, Gley can be a close-range dealer who heals her allies, while Viessa is using ice abilities to manipulate enemies and limit their movements.
However, despite their differences in ability, they all have similar stats. This allows players to build teams and find a good balance between support and damage dealers. These Descendants are all-powerful, and each has a specific role to fill in the game’s upcoming main campaign. While the first few levels will focus on introducing each character, players will need to start working together as a team to progress through the story and defeat Karel.
