| Death From Above |
 |
| Mode : Singleplayer |
| Players : 2 |
| Stone Heads : 4 |
| Vault of Knowledges : 0 |
| Alliances : N/A |
| Difficulty : Easy |
This is the fifth level in Populous The Beginning and the first timed level. This is the only Single Player level to contain a Gargoyle which is linked to a multiple Angel of Death effect.
Starting Speech
"In my vision I beheld the ultimate horror: the Angel Of Death. It is an unstoppable force that will destroy everything in its path! If my Enemies, the Dakini, reach it before me, our fate is sealed."
Setting
The player starts with the Shaman and four Warriors on an island with a Stone Head, a Totem Pole and a Guard Tower. Just north of the island is a very small island with many Wildmen and a Totem Pole.
West of the Totem Pole on the starting island is another island with two blue training huts, a Stone Head and a Totem Pole. The Totem Pole is by a much bigger island with a Dakini village on it that is protecting a Gargoyle.
When the timer reaches zero, the Dakini Shaman will worship the Gargoyle causing the player to lose the level.
Enemy tribes: Dakini
Worship Objects:
| Item | Shots | Spell/Effect | Follower Count |
| Stone Head | 3 | Convert | 1 |
| Stone Head | 2 | Landbridge | 1 |
| Totem Pole | Landbridge | 6 | |
| Totem Pole | Boat | 1 | |
| Totem Pole | Landbridge | 1 | |
| Gargoyle | 5 immortal Angels of Death |
Strategy
The most common strategy is to send the Shaman to the Guard Tower and one Warrior to the Stone Head. When some Convert spells are ready, convert a few Wildmen on the small island and command them to worship the Totem Pole. A boat will appear where a brave should be sent to pick up the Shaman and three Warriors. Train one Brave and one Warrior into two Preachers using the Temple on the other island. Send them back into the boat and travel around the island with the Dakini village on it until you arrive at the Dakini Warrior Training Hut.
Distract the nearby enemy followers with Swarm then use your followers to guard the Shaman while she worships the Gargoyle. It does not take long to worship it, and once it has been worshipped you can watch the Angel of Death group kill the Dakini Shaman, causing you to win the level.
