Hairmonster12: created description

[[Krile Ghost]]s are spirits which help Keen in [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Krile Ghosts are the spirits of Krile warriors who were slain while trying to defend Kridonea City. They will help Commander Keen defeat the robot known as [[Axosis]] by neutralizing it's spinning electric blades, so that Keen can use his trusty Pogo Stick to crush the robot.

Krile Ghosts are not mentioned in the in-game help text, though they are a [[Treasure Eater]] replacement.

[[The Sky Sanctum]] is the final level of [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] [[mod]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After meeting with [[Elder Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen]] in [[The Great Ziggurat]], Commander Keen is flown to an ancient stone temple sitting atop a rock mesa. This hallowed building is known as the Sky Sanctum, a religious temple built by the Krile many centuries ago. Once this building was a beautiful golden palace, but it is now blackened and corrupted by the power of the [[Realm Reactor]] which was constructed on top of the temple by the evil robot [[Atroxus]] in order to bring the realm of Atroxians to [[Krisle|Planet Krisle]].

The Elder had mentioned to Keen that a few Krile delegates were sent to the Sanctum to establish contact with Atroxus, but they did not return. Upon entering the temple, Keen learns the horrible truth about these poor souls, they were [[Guard Drone|possessed by the robots]] and now mindlessly patrol the halls along with [[Magmine]]s, [[Atroxian]]s, [[Atroxite]]s and a few corrupted [[Krile Sentry|Krile Sentries]].

Reaching the top of the temple will be incredibly dangerous, but if Keen can do it, he will come face to face with [[Atroxus]] and battle for the fate of Planet Krisle!

Guard Drone

2017-07-05T01:07:31Z

Hairmonster12: created enemy description

The [[Guard Drone]] is an enemy in [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

When Atroxus first captured [[The Sky Sanctum]], a small expedition of Krile delegates was sent there to try and communicate with the Atroxian leader. They never returned. Upon reaching the sanctum, Commander Keen discovers the horrible truth: The delegates were massacred upon their arrival, and their lifeless bodies corrupted and reanimated by small three-eyed robots known as Guard Drones. The drones use blue energy beams to control the Krile's lifeless corpse, moving around very quickly and firing bolts of deadly blue energy. Keen's [[Neural Stunner]] has no effect on these tragic foes.

Guard Drones are not mentioned in the in-game text file, though they are a [[Berkeloid]] replacement.

Realm Reactor

2017-07-05T00:29:47Z

Hairmonster12: created description

The [[Realm Reactor]] is where Commander Keen's final battle will take place in [[Atroxian Realm]]!

Battling his way through [[The Sky Sanctum]], facing numerous deadly foes along the way, Commander Keen at last climbs to the very top of the ancient building. Amid the pits of scalding blue flames and the blackened Krile statues that decorate the top of the Sanctum lies a giant blue crystal. This is the Realm Reactor, the massively powerful energy machine used by [[Atroxus]] to bring the evil Atroxian Realm to Planet [[Krisle]]. As Keen approaches the Reactor, a massive shadow hovers menacingly above him...

Elder Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen

2017-06-13T02:44:39Z

Hairmonster12: character description

[[Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen]] is a character in [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Elder Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen is the leader of a race of bird-like aliens that call themselves the Krile. For a long time, Elder Krislen has been a fair and just ruler to his people in Kridonea City. That is, until the realm of Atroxian robots began to spread across the planet and destroy all that the Krile race had built over centuries. When Kridonea City began to fall to the robots, Elder Krislen and his council retreated to the safety of [[The Great Ziggurat]] to plan a way to defeat them. The Elder asked his trusted advisor, [[Cyraaun Kriuus Llquo]], to send a distress signal out to the galaxy in the hopes that someone might help save the planet.

Days later, they watched as a bright fireball suddenly streaked across the night sky, burning through Krisle's atmosphere and eventually landing in the southern swampland. A spaceship had come, but the robots had shot it down! Cyraaun Kriuus Llquo was sent to the crash site to search for survivors, and after tense waiting he returned with unbelievable news. Someone had survived the crash and was willing to help, and that someone was none other than the legendary Commander Keen! Elder Krislen was overjoyed to hear the news, but he knew he couldn't risk leaving the safety of the Ziggurat. He would have to wait, and hope Commander Keen was tough enough to survive the perils of the Atroxian Realm so they could meet.

The in-game help text states: '''The elder leader of the Krile, he has taken refuge in a secret room in the Great Ziggurat. He will help you complete your journey.'''

Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen is a [[Princess Lindsey]] replacement.

Atroxus

2017-06-04T17:47:56Z

Hairmonster12: created description

[[Atroxus]] is the main villain and final boss of [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Atroxus is the massive three-eyed flying robot responsible for bringing about the Atroxian Realm on Planet Krisle. It resides on top of the ancient temple, guarding the [[Realm Reactor]], which Commander Keen must destroy in order to save Planet Krisle.

Atroxus is heavily armoured except for the powerful thruster on it's underside, which the flying robot overlord uses to attack with blasts of blue fire. The robot will home in on Keen to crush him, but Keen can keep Atroxus in the air and defeat it by jumping and then rushing under the robot to fire his [[Neural Stunner]] up at Atroxus' one weak spot. It will take many stunner blasts to gradually weaken this powerful enemy, who will begin to emit sparks and malfunction as it becomes more damaged. At the point where Atroxus reaches critical damage, it will explode (nearly taking out Keen in the blast!) and cease to function. Keen can then destroy the Realm Reactor and save Planet Krisle at last!

The in-game help text states: ''This tyrannic warlord created the Atroxian Realm. His advanced combat systems make him Keen's most dangerous adversary ever. He guards the Realm Reactor atop the Sky Sanctum. Be prepared!''

Atroxus is a [[Dopefish]] replacement.

The Great Ziggurat

2017-06-04T05:38:28Z

Hairmonster12: created description

[[The Great Ziggurat]] is a level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After Commander Keen emerges from [[The Catacombs]] he looks up to see that, towering above Kridonea City, is an enormous stepped pyramid. This is the Great Ziggurat, where [[Elder Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen]] has taken refuge from the slaughter brought on by the Atroxians. To reach the Elder, Keen must descend into the chambers within the ornately decorated pyramid and survive four challenges. Each challenge guards a [[Gems|gem]] which will open one of the doors to the Elder's inner chamber, where Keen can hopefully find a way to reach the [[Sky Sanctum]] and finally defeat [[Atroxus]]!

[[Elder Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen]] will be encountered in this level, as well as a few lonely [[Beetlebone]]s.

The Catacombs

2017-05-17T16:29:24Z

Hairmonster12: level description

[[The Catacombs]] is a level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [Atroxian Realm]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After escaping the burning wreckage of the [[Kridonea Ruins]], Commander Keen must descend into the ancient sewer system below the city and find his way through. This labyrinth of doors, tunnels, and putrid pools of waste is deadly and confusing, and it can be quite easy to become hopelessly lost. There are tales of Krile citizens who wandered into The Catacombs only to get lost and never return, their restless [[Krile Ghost|spirits]] are cursed to wander the tunnels forever looking for the way out.

Several robots have found their way into these tunnels including [[Atroxian]]s, [[Atroxite]]s, [[Axosis]], and [[Axoclaw]]. Keen should also beware the hungry maw of the [[Beetlebone]]s which lurk in the sewage pools, waiting to pounce and devour anything that passes by!

Kridonea Ruins

2017-04-23T17:08:31Z

Hairmonster12: level(s) description

The [[Kridonea Ruins]] are two levels in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Emerging from the [[Kridonea Gateway]], Commander Keen will find himself in the streets of Kridonea City. Once a beautiful home to the many Krile, this place now lies completely wrecked after the Atroxian robots invaded. Most of the buildings have been destroyed and the burning wreckage is now swarming with [[Atroxian]]s, [[Axosis|Axosii]], [[Axoclaw]]s, [[Atroxite]]s, and [[Magmine]]s. First, Keen will need to make his way through the southern half of the ruins, which are mostly empty buildings except for the robots. The Northern half of the Kridonea Ruins is more dangerous, crawling with evil robots and littered with the [[Krile Ghost|corpses of the Krile]] who bravely tried to fight for their city. The Kridonea Ruins are an extremely deadly place, but if Keen can get through he will be much closer to his final battle with [[Atroxus]]!

Kridonea Gateway

2017-04-23T16:38:36Z

Hairmonster12: level description

The [[Kridonea Gateway]] is a level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

The entrance to Kridonea City is guarded by the city's gateway, a large brick building consisting of endless hallways and corridors which eventually lead to the acidic sewer system that runs under the city. This place is a large maze with many secrets, dangers and dead-ends, and can be quite difficult to navigate. [[Atroxian]]s and [[Atroxite]]s lurk in a few areas, several [[Krile Sentry|Krile Sentries]] stand guard against intruders, and deep within the sewers lies a voracious new threat known as [[Beetlebone]]. If Keen can survive the many perils of the Kridonea Gateway, he will at last find his way to the gruesome ruins of Kridonea City, where the [[Great Ziggurat]] awaits.

Cyraaun Kriuus Llquo

2017-04-07T16:42:09Z

Hairmonster12: character description

[[Cyraaun Kriuus Llquo]] is a character in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After crash-landing on Planet [[Krisle]], Commander Keen crawls from the wreckage of his BWB Megarocket and is immediately greeted by a strange bird-like being wearing an ornately decorated black robe. This being introduces itself as Cyraaun Kriius Llquo and begins to tell Commander Keen of the robot invasion taking place on Krisle, thus starting Keen on his quest to defeat [[Atroxus ]].

Much of the story of Atroxian Realm is narrated by this character, who is a respected Krile scientist as well as advisor to [[Elder Caraanae-Augustrus Krislen]], the Krile leader. Cyraaun and Keen first meet at the [[BWB Megarocket Crash Site]], where the being informs Keen what he must do to stop the Atroxian invasion and save Planet Krisle. Cyraaun then takes refuge in the secret [[Crystal Sanctuary]] with other members of the Krile. After Keen destroys Atroxus, Cyraaun Kriius Llquo is encountered once more, congratulating and thanking Keen as well as presenting him with a new [[Bean-with-Bacon Megarocket]] so that Keen can finally return home to Earth.

The in-game help text states: ''This member of the Krile, the native inhabitants of Planet Krisle, sets Keen on a journey to stop the Atroxians. You may meet him elsewhere, too... ''

Cyraaun Kriius Llquo is a [[Princess Lindsey]] replacement.

Crystal Sanctuary

2017-03-31T05:31:04Z

Hairmonster12: created description

The [[Crystal Sanctuary]] is the secret level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[user:Gridlock|Gridlock]]

After jumping into the tangle of red roots deep within the [[Hornet Hive]], Commander keen finds himself once again under the crystalline mountains. Before him is a towering stone temple, built by the Krile many centuries ago, the Crystal Sanctuary. Ancient and foreboding, this temple is where [[Cyraaun Kriuus Llquo]] and other Krile have taken refuge from the Atroxian Realm spreading across their planet. In order to reach them, Commander Keen will need to solve the puzzles and brave the dangers within the sanctuary, eventually reaching the top where he can find a quick way into the chamber where the Krile are hiding. The Atroxians do not know of this place, and thus are not seen here. [[Krisle]]'s native species will not set foot in the temple itself, though a few lonely [[Splider]]s roam the outer areas of the cave in which it's built.

Of interesting note are the many rainbow-colored question marks scattered about the Crystal Santuary. When collected, a randomized item will be added to Keens score, which will either be a [[Raindrop|Spark]], a Spark Star (Extra Keen), or a random point item (100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, or 5000 points).

Hornet Hive

2017-03-28T03:21:33Z

Hairmonster12: level description

The [[Hornet Hive]] is an optional level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

In the deepest part of the redwood forest, far to the east, lies an enormous Hornet Hive. Only one creature inhabits this labyrinth, the [[Hornet]]. These giant insects have burrowed into the ground among the trees and created a disorienting maze of tunnels, honeycombs, and larvae, all of which adds up to a bad day for Commander Keen! Aside from the hornets themselves, giant yellowish larvae cling to the tunnel walls in many areas, highly poisonous if touched.

If Keen can survive the many gruesome threats and explore his way to the bottom of this hive, a great and ancient secret may lie waiting... a passage to the secret sanctuary of the Krile!

Krile Sentry

2017-03-27T01:25:57Z

Hairmonster12: created description

The [[Krile Sentry]] is a hazard in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Built by the Krile to protect their city and underground sanctuary, Krile Sentries are statues which spit out fire at any intruders. They are bust statues, resembling the head of a Krile, the bird-like beings that inhabit Planet [[Krisle]]. When these statues sense a threat in front of them, the will open their beak. After a short delay, it the threat is still there, the Krile Sentry will spit small fireballs from their beak until the threat moves away or is destroyed. Krile Sentries can be encountered in the [[Crystal Sanctuary]] and the [[Kridonea Gateway]].

The in-game help text states ''Installed as a Krile security system, these bust statues attack any intruders nearby with a projectile blast. Be warned: they cannot differentiate between friend and foe.''

Beetlebone

2017-03-27T00:51:42Z

Hairmonster12: beetlebone description

[[Beetlebone]] is an enemy in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

The Beetlebone is a fearsome creature that is native to Planet [[Krisle]]. These animals have a hard bony exoskeleton, one red eye, and a huge open jaw lined with sharp teeth. Beetlebones are ambush predators that lurk in the deep underground tunnels below Kridonea City. They hide below the surface of water (or other liquids) and wait for a hapless victim to pass by. When a potential meal gets close, the hungry Beetlebone will use it's powerful legs to jump straight up out of the water with it's mouth wide open, desperate to grab it's prey with razor sharp teeth. Beetlebones are protected by their exoskeleton which is made of a thick bone-like material, they are in fact so well armoured that Keen's stunner has no effect on these deadly beasts! Luckily, the Beetlebone is a rare creature, only found in the [[Kridonea Gateway]] and the [[Catacombs]].

The in-game help text states ''These skeletal creatures reside in acidic sewers, waiting patiently for unsuspecting prey''

The Beetlebone is a [[Mad Mushroom]] replacement.

Travelator

2017-03-22T01:49:25Z

Hairmonster12: an description

A [[Travelator]] is a gameplay design in [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Travelators are high-speed horizontal conveyors used by the Atroxians to transport cargo. If Commander Keen steps or jumps into a travellator, he will be sent careening at high speed along the conveyor. Sometimes a travelator's direction (left or right) will be changeable by using a switch, but in all cases the machine's direction can be identified via the red LED arrows displayed on it's side.

Travelators can be found in [[Cargo Transit A]] and [[Cargo Transit B]]. It is important to note that Keen's enemies can use them too, watch out for the flying [[Atroxite]]s!

Atroxian Base

2017-03-22T00:45:24Z

Hairmonster12: level description

The [[Atroxian Base]] is a mandatory level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

In the far North-West corner of Planet [[Krisle]] there is an immense and imposing structure, the Atroxian Base. Upon entering this heavily fortified building Keen will receive a threatening message from [[Atroxus]]. Ignoring the evil robot's threats, Commander Keen will have to charge forward into the labyrinth of hallways, robots and puzzles to find the 2nd generator and shut down the [[Atroxian Power Grid]]. The base is swarming with [[Atroxian]]s and [[Atroxite]]s, and a few [[Axoclaw]]s are floating around as well.

The Atroxian Base is big, deadly, maze-like, and holds many dangers and secrets. Commander Keen will need every bit of strength and cunning to make it all the way to the generator, but if he can destroy it he will open the way to Kridonea City and be one step closer to stopping the Atroxian Realm from spreading over the planet!

Cargo Transit B

2017-03-22T00:06:16Z

Hairmonster12: level description

[[Cargo Transit B]] is an optional level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

On a small island just north of the [[Security Layer]] is a building known as Cargo Transit B. This is the second half of the Atroxian cargo transit system, materials from the [[Atroxian Mines]] are sent above ground via [[Cargo Transit A]] and eventually arrive here. Much like Cargo Transit A, This location is an industrial shipping center which is packed with storage crates and shipping machinery including [[Travelator]]s. Unlike Cargo transit A however, this building is not littered with deadly spikes and traps, making it much easier for Keen to survive. [[Atroxian]]s, [[Atroxite]]s and [[Magmine]]s stand ready for battle in a few places, and if Keen can solve the large puzzle in the lowest level of this building he will be rewarded with many extra lives!

Security Layer

2017-03-20T17:25:21Z

Hairmonster12: level description

The '''Security Layer''' is a mandatory level in [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

The Security Layer is a complex of three large buildings that were built to guard the [[Atroxian Base]]. The buildings are tall, maze-like, and extremely dangerous. Green lazers fire from all directions, spikes litter the ground, and Atroxian robots swarm all over this deadly checkpoint. As Commander Keen enters the Security Layer he will encounter a fearsome flying robot called the [[Axoclaw]], and as he makes his way through the Security Layer he will also have to battle [[Atroxian]]s and [[Atroxite]]s. There is a small cave system running under the building complex through which Keen can enter the buildings, but these caves are also extremely well guarded by Atroxian threats! If Keen can make it through the Security Layer, he will reach the [[Atroxian Base]] and hopefully be able to shut down the 2nd generator that guards access to Kridonea City.

Port Atrox

2017-03-15T22:05:53Z

Hairmonster12: level description

[[Port Atrox]] is a required level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Port Atrox is an industrial shipping center built over the water on Planet [[Krisle]] by the Atroxian robots. This building is large and very complex, and as Commander Keen navigates through the port he'll need to pay attention to the many [[Indicator]]s to keep from getting lost. [[Atroxite]]s and [[Atroxian]]s patrol the building and piers, but Port Atrox also has many areas with deadly spikes and falls into open water. If Keen can manage to find his way through the maze-like Port, he'll find a switch to operate the bridges that will lead to many new areas of Planet Krisle.

Krilewood Forest

2017-03-07T04:04:17Z

Hairmonster12: level description

The '''Krilewood Forest''' is a required level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

In the central area of Planet [[Krisle]] grows a dense redwood forest. The trees here are massive, growing thousands of feet tall and hundreds of years old, and provide home to several species of plant and animal life. Short brown mushrooms cover the forest floor, and giant red flowers grow on vines that hang from the branches of the trees. These flowers produce a sweet nectar that attracts the residents of the nearby [[Hornet Hive]], Keen must beware the many [[Hornet]]s patrolling the tree branches, ground areas and small caves in this area! Krilewood is a natural and beautiful forest, but even here the robots have invaded, and as Keen makes his way through he will need to avoid the spinning electric blades of [[Axosis]].

The Krilewood Forest is a necessary location, as Keen will have to pass through here to reach the bridge control switch located in [[Port Atrox]] and open the bridge to the [[Atroxian Base]].

Atroxian Power Grid

2017-03-05T21:23:26Z

Hairmonster12: created page

The [[Atroxian Power Grid]] is a large electric security system that surrounds [[Kridonea Ruins|Kridonea City]]. It consists of a tall electric fence surrounding the island on which the city is built, and a bridge leading into the [[Kridonea Gateway]]. Two powerful devices emit arcs of energy that reach across the bridge, preventing access (though they will not harm Commander Keen). These devices are powered by two large generators (One in the [[Atroxian Mines]], and one in the [[Atroxian Base]]), and Commander Keen will need to find and destroy them to disable the bridge's security system.

After the Atroxian Power Grid is shut down, Keen will be able to get into Kridonea City and locate the [[Great Ziggurat]] where he can hopefully find a way to reach [[Atroxus]] and stop the Atroxian Realm from spreading across the planet!

Atroxian Mines

2017-03-05T20:48:37Z

Hairmonster12: level description

The '''Atroxian Mines''' is a required level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

As Commander Keen explores the deepest areas of the great cavern under the mountains, he is shocked to discover a large Atroxian building and two huge drills which are boring into the surrounding rock. This ominous place is the Atroxian Mines, a large industrial mining complex which houses one of the large generators that power the electric grid guarding Kridonea City. The Atroxians will fiercely defend this important location from any intruder, Keen can expect to battle with [[Atroxite]]s, [[Atroxian]]s, and an explosive new threat known as the [[Magmine]]. Also very dangerous are the many drilling machines being used to mine the crystals from these caves.

Once the generator in the Atroxian Mines is destroyed, half of the [[Atroxian Power Grid]] which guards access to [[Kridonea Ruins|Kridonea City]] will be shut down. Keen will need to find the other generator and destroy it if he is to reach the [[Great Ziggurat]] and stop the Atroxian Invasion!

Cargo Transit A

2017-03-01T06:18:01Z

Hairmonster12: level description

'''Cargo Transit A''' is an optional level in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After descending the [[Emerald Canyon]] Commander Keen discovers a full scale Atroxian mining operation deep below the mountains. Keen can head straight into the [[Atroxian Mines]], but he first has the option to enter Cargo Transit A.

This is the shipping center for the operation, used to transport material from the mines up to the surface of Planet [[Krisle]]. Being an industrial facility, Cargo Transit A is packed with crates of cargo and shipping machinery, including high-speed cargo transport devices known as [[Travelator]]s. Dozens of [[Atroxite]]s patrol the facility as well as a deadly electrified robot known as [[Axosis]], and a few [[Splider]]s roam the caves above the shipping facility.

Cargo Transit A has two exits, one of which is much easier to reach than the other. The optional exit will lead Keen to discover a hidden message written in the [[Standard Galactic Alphabet]], but either choice will simply exit Cargo Transit A. Keen will have to search elsewhere to find any secret places on Planet Krisle!

Emerald Canyon

2017-02-28T05:14:12Z

Hairmonster12: level description

'''Emerald Canyon''' is a required level of [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After Commander Keen gains access to the great cavern under the mountains, he will come across several enormous green emeralds. These ancient natural monoliths stand upon the edge of the Emerald Canyon, which Keen must descend down in order to reach the deepest parts of the caves. The canyon itself is thousands of feet deep and naturally formed from the blue crystalline rock, but most impressive is the towering emerald standing in the center. A series of switches and platforms have been attached to this massive green crystal, and Keen will need to get these platforms working so he can safely make his way to the canyon floor.

It is here that Keen will have his first battles with a deadly robotic foe known as the [[Atroxian]]. Other threats include the [[Atroxite]], [[Larvbat]] and [[Splider]].

[[Krisle]] is the world on which [[Atroxian Realm]] takes place, a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Commander Keen's adventure on Planet Krisle begins after his [[BWB|BWB Megarocket]] is shot down by a swarm of robots. Forced to crash-land, he crawls from the wreckage of his ship to find himself in a swampy forest in the southwest of this new world.

After meeting one of the strange inhabitants of this land, Keen sets off into the night to find and destroy the being responsible for the robot invasion of the planet. The quest to defeat [[Atroxus]] will take him through dark mysterious swamps, a vast crystal cavern under a mountain range, primitive forest-lands, well guarded Atroxian bases, the gruesome ruins of [[Kridonea Ruins|Kridonea City]], and eventually to the corrupted [[The Sky Sanctum|Sky Sanctum]] where Commander Keen's most dangerous enemy yet is waiting, ready to battle for control of Planet Krisle!

==The Swampland==
The entire Western region of Krisle is a swampland, thick with tall grey trees and lush green undergrowth. Much like Earth, Krisle seems to have a very watery surface with rivers and streams flowing throughout the landscape and nourishing the vast plant-life here, in many places flowing underground and carving out vast cave systems deep under the planet's surface. The Western swampland of Krisle is a wild and natural place completely untamed by any kind of civilization, and is home to many species of plant and animals which thrive in this environment.

==The Mountains==
A great mountain range dominates the South-East, heaved up from the ground through millions of years of geologic processes. Under these mountains there is an enormous cave which is formed from the crystalline rock that naturally occurs here. All sizes and colors of crystal can be found in this cavern, perhaps that could explain the extensive mining operation the Atroxians have set up here...

==Kridonea City==
Krisle is home to all kinds of evolved life but one species has evolved to be as intelligent as Earth's Humans, perhaps even more-so.
These bird-like beings call themselves the Krile. Kridonea City is their home, built in the north-east of the region. Constructed from quarried stone, the buildings in Kridonea are set atop tall pillars which hold each building high above the ground, and in the center of the city is the Great Ziggurat where the Krile elders meet to govern their people. These people, the Krile, were a kind and friendly race of alien being, peacefully inhabiting their beautiful city. And then the robot invasion began...

==The Atroxian Realm==
Approaching Planet Krisle, Commander Keen saw what appeared to be three massive hurricanes swirling over the surface of the planet. As he drew closer, he realized these are not hurricanes, but three massive swarms of robots! After being shot down by these robots, Keen learns that an evil being named [[Atroxus]] has invaded Planet Krisle with his robotic army, taking over the Krile temple known as the Sky Sanctum and using it's power to unleash a malevolent realm of Atroxian robots onto this peaceful world.

This invasion is destroying Krisle's environment and slaughtering it's people. Atroxus must be stopped and brought to justice, but who is bold enough to try? Who is brave enough to battle an entire realm of evil robots?

Commander Keen. That's who.

Hairmonster12: world description

'''Krisle''' is the world on which [[Atroxian Realm]] takes place, a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Crystalcomb Hive

2017-02-24T02:12:21Z

Hairmonster12: level description

'''Crystalcomb Hive''' is an optional level in [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Deep under the mountains of Planet [[Krisle]] is a massive crystalline structure built by [[Hornet]]s. These large insects appear to have carved their home from the rock over thousands of generations, chewing the crystal into honeycomb patterns. Crystalcomb Hive is absolutely massive, constructed and enlarged by the Hornets into a maze featuring dozens of tunnels, many hidden places and numerous dead-ends. It can be easy to get lost here, but Keen can survive this place by finding the exit at the upper right corner of the hive.

The Hornets patrol the tunnels in great numbers and will not tolerate intruders except for [[Splider]]s which can also be found wandering throughout the hive, suggesting perhaps a symbiotic relationship between the two species.

Crystallite Caverns

2017-02-24T01:10:58Z

Hairmonster12: level description

'''Crystallite Caverns''' is a required level of [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After surviving the Larvae Lagoon, Commander Keen will come across a mountain range in the southeast area of Planet [[Krisle]]. At the edge of the mountains there is a cave entrance which leads into the Crystallite Caverns. These ancient natural caverns consist of beautiful see-through crystalline rock formations, some of which are very sharp and dangerous. A new threat known as the [[Splider]] lurks in these caves, as well as [[Larvbat]]s and [[Larvac]]s. The Crystallite Caverns are dangerous and maze-like, but careful exploration of these caves will reveal the way forward as well as many secrets and hidden rewards!

Brithom Bog

2017-02-22T06:39:04Z

Hairmonster12: level description

'''Brithom Bog''' is a required level of [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

North of [[Murky Marsh]] is a thick swampland area known as Brithom Bog. Once a pristeen natural wetland of Planet [[Krisle]], the swamp is now choked and polluted by machinery constructed by the Atroxian robots and serves as a security checkpoint for the bridge to the [[Atroxian Base]]. Brithom Bog stands ready to challenge Commander Keen after he defeats Murky Marsh, but the bridge it guards will be impassable until Keen operates a switch located in [[Port Atrox]].

Swarming with [[Atroxite]]s and heavily defended by floating machines which fire green lazers, Brithom Bog puts any would-be intruder to the test! An occasional [[Dartfrog]] can be found here as well, the only remaining natural inhabitant of this once-beautiful wetland.

Larvac

2017-02-19T07:10:02Z

Hairmonster12: created enemy description

The [[Larvac]] is an enemy in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Larvacs are blob-like creatures which are native to planet [[Krisle]]. Apparently the winged bat-like creature known as the [[Larvbat]] begins it's life as a Larvac, crawling along the ground inside a globular blue cocoon. A large green spot adorns it's side (possibly an eye), and on top of the grotesque grub is a round toothy mouth. As the Larvac crawls around it will spit, retching forth large green globs of slimy acid into the air. Larvacs can be primarily found in the [[Larvae Lagoon]] which is their native habitat, but a few can also be encountered in the [[Crystallite Caverns]].

The in-game help text states - ''Thriving in dark underground areas, these caccooned larvbats experience bad acid reflux. Watch out for their corrosive spit!''

The Larvac is a [[Poison Slug]] replacement.

Larvae Lagoon

2017-02-19T06:26:20Z

Hairmonster12: level description

'''Larvae Lagoon''' is the fourth level of [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

North of the river crossing at [[Murky Marsh]] is a body of water, in the center of which is a tree-covered island that is home to an immense living organic structure. This place is known as the Larvae Lagoon. A cavernous system of caves and underground water pools, this slimy labyrinth is where the [[Larvbat]]s breed and raise their young. These flying creatures infest this place, and their larval offspring can be seen hanging from the ceiling and walls in differing stages of metamorphosis. Keen will even have to fight a crawling cocoon version of these larvbat offspring called a [[Larvac]]. A few [[Dartfrog]]s make their home around the cave entrance, and the [[Atroxite]] can occasionally be found deeper below ground.

The Larvae Lagoon is a wild and natural place with some hidden tunnels and secrets, and Commander Keen will need to explore his way through in order to continue on his way to stop the Atroxian threat!

Murky Marsh

2017-02-17T03:49:37Z

Hairmonster12: level description

'''Murky Marsh''' is the third level of [[Atroxian Realm]], a [[Keen 4]] mod by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

After making his way through the [[Dark Swamp]], Keen comes across a river of acidic water that runs through the Southwestern swampland of Planet Krisle. The only way to cross the river is by going through the Murky Marsh, a swampy labyrinth full of peril and danger. To get through, Keen will have to find his way across pools of acid water, brave the local wildlife (including the [[Larvbat]] and [[Dartfrog]]), and explore deep into the vast underground cave system of this wild and untamed place. A spider-like robot called [[Atroxite]] can be found deep in the caves, the first sign of a robot invasion that is taking place on Krisle. Many dead-ends, dangers, hidden passages and secrets await in Murky Marsh, Keen will need to keep his wits about him to survive!

If Commander Keen manages to get through the Murky Marsh, he will then have two options. He can either take on [[Brithom Bog]], or brave the [[Larvae Lagoon]].

Murky Marsh is the first level in which a [[Checkpoint]] can be found, a very handy tool that will aide Keen on his dangerous quest to save Planet [[Krisle]]!

Axoclaw

2017-02-14T07:35:06Z

Hairmonster12: created page

The [[Axoclaw]] is an airborne robot enemy in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Axoclaws are guard robots which float through the air using powerful rocket thrusters located on either side of their metal chassis. They are equipped with an electric cannon which fires homing bursts of blue plasma, and have a thick metal armor which completely protects the robot's circuitry and power source from any attack, rendering the Axoclaw invincible. The Axoclaw appears to be a heavily modified [[Atroxian]].

The Axoclaw can first be found guarding important areas of the [[Security Layer]] and the [[Atroxian Base]], but is also encountered later on as part of the murderous invasion that swept through the [[Kridonea Ruins]].

The in-game help text states - ''When in range, these Atroxian sentries blast homing fireballs at you!''

This guy's name needs to be changed to Axoclaw. I tried to change it on the main page but when I previewed it, it's image went away and thanks to my total noob-ness at editing I don't know how to avoid that :P - [[User:Hairmonster12|Hairmonster12]] ([[User talk:Hairmonster12|talk]]) 21:25, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

Atroxite

2017-02-12T21:15:29Z

Hairmonster12: created page

The [[Atroxite]] is a robotic enemy in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Atroxites are spider-like robots with a two-segmented body, three red eyes, and razor sharp metal legs. Atroxites can usually be found hopping around on the ground, but occasionally they wait to ambush Keen from behind cover, or pounce downward from a high ledge. If Keen gets too close these robots will charge at him, reaching out with their sharp legs and emitting a piercing metallic shriek! One zap from Keen's Stunner is enough to neutralize an Atroxite.

By far the most numerous soldier in Atroxus' robot army, Atroxites can be found in many places on Planet [[Krisle]]. Keen will first encounter the Atroxite in the [[Murky Marsh]], other locations are [[Brithom Bog]], the [[Emerald Canyon]], [[Cargo Transit A]], the [[Atroxian Mines]], [[Port Atrox]], [[Cargo Transit B]], the [[Security Layer]], the [[Atroxian Base]], [[Kridonea Gateway]], the [[Kridonea Ruins]], the [[Catacombs]], and the [[Sky Sanctum]].

The Atroxite is a [[Lick]] replacement.

Atroxian

2017-02-11T22:34:34Z

Hairmonster12: created enemy description

The [[Atroxian]] is a robotic enemy in the [[Keen 4]] mod [[Atroxian Realm]] by [[User:Gridlock|Gridlock]].

Atroxians are three-eyed flying robots with sharp metal legs, a tough metallic body and electrified wings.

The Atroxian uses it's wings to fly around and chase after Commander Keen, attempting to electrocute him by touch. One blast from Keen's [[Neural Stunner]] will temporarily stun the robot causing it to drop to the ground and remain there a few seconds, but if left alone it will take flight again to continue it's attack. After initially stunning it, five more blasts will destroy the robot's wing structure, disabling it's ability to fly. It will then crawl along the ground on it's sharp metal legs, where five MORE blasts are then needed to fry the robot's circuitry causing it to violently explode leaving only a pile of broken robot parts. Keen will not be harmed by the explosion.

Part of Atroxus' robotic invasion, Atroxians are not native to Planet Krisle and thus can usually be found in areas with Atroxian buildings and machinery. Keen first encounters the Atroxian in the [[Emerald Canyon]], additional locations of these robots are the [[Atroxian Mines]], [[Port Atrox]], the [[Security Layer]], the [[Atroxian Base]], [[Cargo Transit B]], the [[Kridonea Gateway]], [[Kridonea Ruins]], [[The Catacombs]], and [[The Sky Sanctum]].

The in-game help text states: ''A swarm of these vicious drones has invaded Planet Krisle. You can temporarily stun them to get by, but they can be permanently taken out with greater effort.''

The Atroxian is a [[Blue Bird]] replacement.
