Can you recognize the heavy thumps of a Kettem?


Update Warning

The subject of this page has been affected by a recent Game update and the way it functions in-game has changed.

As of Game Update - June 11, 2024, all Kettem are no longer present in the game. A number of characters related to the disappearance of the Kettem and other supernatural creatures were released at that time.

Also known as the spirit of the middle winds, Kettem are formless but strong and malicious Half winds which animate objects around them to build up into a massive form, causing destruction.


Lore

In Chapter Zero, The Journey Begins, kettem can be found animating wood and ships, but there are also reports of kettem using seaweed and hay[1].

Mystics based in West Wind Shores are studying kettem. Kettem are blind, but are able to sense living things nearby. They have the strength of a raging ox, and are able to demolish houses in seconds. In some cases, the wind can make many smaller kettem rather than a single, large one.

A core inflamed by the Half-Wind, called the Kettem crux, is needed for a kettem to appear.

Kettem holds a lot of Force and even more with Ward, but their Speed is more to the lower side.

If you want to make it swift, having high Force or a powerful combat skill like Strike of Pale Nights will help wiping them out quickly.

Miscellaneous

When the Kettem is defeated a golden beam leaves its body and moves upward.
