Astral Cultist is a random event in the game Legends of Kingdom Rush in the adventure Krum'Thak's Dominion, Stormcloud's Winter, and Extradimensional Menace.
All of a sudden, a mysterious robed figure projects itself in front of us.
"Your efforts to hinder the unblinded's advances end here!" the cultist says as he evokes a ball of dark energy and hurls it towards us before vanishing.
