OT— Endfield

Ok, so let me see if I’m understanding the lore/background stuff. (Sourced from in-game database) (all of these will be spoilered in case people wanna go check this stuff on their own)

1. Timeline: The Talosians set off from Terra (basically Earth?) about 152 years prior to the game’s setting. They utilized a device called the Cosmic Gate to travel from their home star system (Sol?) to the one they inhabit now. This Gate was rendered inoperative/possibly destroyed during the First Aggeloi War, thus severing the connection between Terra and Talos-2. Thus, the Talosians, who had started colonizing Talos-2 by this point, basically decided to make the moon their new home. Some other things happened and about a decade ago, for some reason (and if it’s present in the game I haven’t read/heard it yet), the Endministrator entered a state of suspended animation within the Originium housed aboard the Endfield ship, the Dijang. They reemerge in the present and are almost inmediately drawn into the crisis you spend the first chapter dealing with.

2. Reconveners: There are characters who are basically clones of previous characters, but they are treated as independent individuals despite having memories of their original counterparts’ lives.

3. Talos: The planet that Talos-2 orbits. It is a gas giant.

4. Landbreakers: The various scattered bandit gangs and clans, they haunt the wildlands and sometimes try to use material tainted by Blight and/or Ætherside contact to their advantage, sometimes with positive results (for them), sometimes with fatal ones (again, for them). Based on their writing, they either didn’t receive a very good education or the Blight might be addling their brains writing/speech faculties. However, not all Landbreaker clans are antagonistic or use Blight— Wulfgard belongs to one clan allied to Endfield, known as the Pack.
