- - Book of Divine Prophecy
The Aurum make up a race of malevolent extraterrestrial beings that are attracted to natural disturbances in the universe, such as the war between the Forces of Nature and the Underworld that occurs during Kid Icarus: Uprising. They are the central enemies during a three-part mini story arc that centers on their invasion of Angel Land, effectively forcing Hades, Viridi, and Palutena to join forces to face a greater threat. The sun god Pyrrhon also serves as an exclusive character to this mini arc, acting as a relatively useless helper at first and becoming the main antagonist towards the climax.
Characteristics
The Aurum forces are made up of two separate groups of enemies, all of which have unique attacks.
Aurum Fleet
The Aurum Fleet is the primary fighting force of the Aurum army, and includes a variety of unique and futuristic creatures with digitalized bodies. Many enemies in this group have shapeshifting and warping abilities, which make them some of the game's toughest foes. All enemies of the Aurum Fleet possess the ability to fly or float in some way, with no exclusively grounded forces to speak of.
Aurum Clones
Aurum Clones are copies of other enemies encountered in the game. They take on an appearance similar to that of the Aurum Fleet, but still use the same attacks as their respective counterparts. Both Underworld and Nature troops have been seen as Aurum Clones, including Micks, Monoeyes, and Specknoses.
