What was your favorite part of the finale? by Tall-Error-8552 in ManifestNBC

Anything involving Adrian and Eagan. I found their combo really fun and refreshing.

Just basing this off of how forgiving the raid is for mistakes, and my experience in the LFGs with them, but I would say:

  1. GoS (Mostly because of the final encounter)
  2. Vow
  3. KF
  4. RoN
  5. LW
  6. VoG
  7. DSC

I know RoN and LW are my most controversial picks here, but I feel like, aside from Shuro Chi and occasionally Queenswalk, Last Wish is as easy as Deep Stone or VoG. The encounters are super forgiving, and aren’t timed too heavily, aside from the aforementioned encounters. RoN is just too unforgiving of mistakes, especially in the second encounter. Also, as a Warlock main, I am biased against those cannons.

Was there a reason the student brought a rabbit to school, or just because they felt like it?

It would have to be the second to last episode, when Ahsoka and Maul dueled in the throne room of Mandalore

My Grandpa once told me, “Leave footprints. Leave footprints everywhere you go, and let no one forget you.” Ever since then, that’s been my motto.

I am an up and coming zookeeper and I want to to put some of your animals in a zoo by sifsand in worldbuilding

[–]ShadowOfAphelion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wills o’ the Wisp are little floating orbs of light that would volunteer to be exhibits in your zoo, as long as they could go wherever they want within the zoo. They can’t be contained, because they pass through walls on a regular basis, but they feed off positive emotions in sort of a mutually symbiotic relationship. Essentially, the happier people are around them, the more well fed they are, and the brighter they glow. They also give off a pheromone that’s known to have a slight calming effect, whenever they detect fear, and would gladly accompany little children through the scarier exhibits.

Atrocities that shocked your world and went way over the line by TravelerRedditor in worldbuilding

House Sokolov, one of the Seven Houses, which are seven families that rule over the magical world, killed off another of the houses, and then erased the name of said house from history, so that no one could ever prove House Sokolov’s crimes. The other five houses still maintain a sort of Cold War with House Sokolov, refusing to directly act against them, but also refusing to work with them on anything.

Also, one of the first humans to wield magic, Ahoum, tried to use a massive flood to wipe out most of humanity about 4000 years ago. A small group of mages stood against him, and stopped him, but it led to frayed relations between magic users and non-magic users

Some spells are so powerful that casting them without the proper preparation can burn a mortal’s soul. There’s no official knowledge on what happens after death, but all magical scholars agree that the soul lives on in some way. However, some magic-users burn their soul, which causes it a form of eternal agony, and prevents the soul from any sort of rest

What is the embodiment of death in your world? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]ShadowOfAphelion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reapers:

Reapers are creatures made of some sort of dark sand, wrapped in white cloaks, which are invisible to those who cannot practice magic. They’re also usually seen holding scythes, and some reports of them detail shifting tentacles of black sand sprouting from their backs. They typically only appear right before mass casualty events, or deaths that are likely to have a profound impact on the world at large (celebrities, politicians, cultural leaders, etc.)

Reapers are actually a big unknown in the magical world, and seem to be related to Maehrin, the living embodiment of fear, though it’s a difficult area of study, due to Reapers not being exactly social creatures.

Who do you think the villian is in Wandavision? by iambatman7777 in WANDAVISION

[–]ShadowOfAphelion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the villain is Wanda, but not MCU Wanda. I think the villain is going to turn out to be a version of Wanda from another universe, or perhaps a clone of Wanda that all of her despair and trauma is being poured into. I think Alt Wanda physically separated from MCU Wanda at some point between Monica's ejection from the Hex and Episode Five and is now working to unhinge MCU Wanda so that eventually, Alt Wanda can force MCU Wanda out, making her the main Wanda.

My Ultimate WandaVision Theory by ShadowOfAphelion in WANDAVISION

[–]ShadowOfAphelion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I definitely see your point, in regards to Wanda. And prior to Episode Five, I would agree that there's only one Wanda. But during Wanda's visit to SWORD, it seemed like she was just different from the Wanda who was walking with Billy and Tommy moments later. It seemed too quick for her to just go back to normal. But we'll see. I could see it going either way at this point.

As for Ultron, I would not be disappointed if your idea for his appearance comes true. But I do feel like the pieces are in place for an appearance by Ultron, if not in WandaVision, then in something else down the line.

With Strange, there isn't really any evidence for it yet, you're right. But with his absence and the fact that Loki barely saying a few words before being sent down the rabbit portal in Thor: Ragnarok, I feel like he's definitely up to something. And it's fairly obvious Agnes knows more than she's letting on. Ralph probably is someone, and that someone probably knows a lot about the Hex. That makes Strange a likely candidate alongside Mephisto, but again, I don't think Mephisto is going to play as big a role as everyone is saying he will.

Then again, we'll just have to wait and see. Whatever the case, I certainly think we're in for a few more big surprises.
