His madness continuing, Martine appeared as a pretty destructive character during Live events in the Hidden Vein patch, raiding several towns and other locations such as the Obsidian Plains.

In secret, Gaerlan starts experimenting with Elemental Magic and creates the elemental cisterns to rise his Citadel.<ref name=GaerlanDiary>2002/07 - Repercussions - Gaerlan's Diary</ref> Gaerlan reveals his motives and goals by attacking Asheron directly, and the role Martine played as his pawn becomes clear. This results in Martine falling into a deep depression.<ref>2002/07 - Repercussions - Rollout Article</ref><ref>2002/08 - Atonement - Rollout Article</ref> During the Repercussions event, Martine could be found in Martine's Retreat. This location opened up after the final killing of Dranith Menacet. Players could hand him either the Tusker Husk or the Letter for Melaney to strengthen the Virindi or the Human influence respectively.
A visit from Elysa's son Borelean roused Martine from his solitude and convinced him to aid Asheron, Elysa and all Isparians against Gaerlan. <ref name="Pack Martine">2004/11 - On Bended Knee - Pack Martine</ref><ref>2002/08 - Atonement - Teaser</ref><ref>2002/09 Verdict - Rollout Article</ref> Martine appears a few times after the different Cores of the Cistern have been destroyed during the The Elemental Cisterns live events during the Atonement event.<ref>2002/08 and 2002/09 - Atonement - The Elemental Cisterns, The Cisterns on Maggies Site </ref> The final battle at September 18th between Gaerlan and Martine ends with the fall of Gaerlan's Citadel and the disappearance of Martine<ref name=MaggieCisterns>2002/09/18 - Atonement - The Cisterns on Maggies Site</ref><ref name="Pack Martine">2004/11 - On Bended Knee - Pack Martine</ref>
Martine survives, and from his later conversations with Asheron, it becomes clear that the majority of the players handing him the Letter for Melanay, made him make his choice to side with the Isparians.<ref>2002/09 - Verdict - Teaser Part 2</ref>
During a live event, a battle ensued between Gaerlan and Martine at the top of Gaerlan's Citadel; Martine was slain. Martine's Robe and Martine's Mask can be found at the end of the Gaerlan's Citadel quest.

Creatures

  • The name of Dranith Menacet is an anagram of Candeth Martine. Dranith Menacet looked upon Martine not just as his creator, but as a father figure. When being killed, he cries out:
Dranith Menacet says, "Father...Father... My body crumbles to dust, am I forgotten. I am dead. I am sorry father I have failed you and will rise no longer."
<Player Name> has slain Dranith Menacet. As the Hollow Minion bleeds its last bit of life onto the ground, it calls to its farther in a child-like voice. "Father, I have failed you. They will find the way to your home." In Rithwic, a new portal appears.
