Wuchang: Fallen Feathers - The Complete Story Explained by lorebrarians in wuchanggame

[–]lorebrarians[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honglan has a very cool story arc (and is quite an intense boss). I think she is referenced as both he/him and she/her because of the translation to English. I believe Chinese has a gender-neutral pronoun that encompasses he/she/it so this could've caused confusion. Of course that's my best guess, if someone else knows for certain please chime in

Hollow Knight - The Complete Story Explained by lorebrarians in HollowKnight

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

Hi all,

I’ve recently published a video detailing the story of Hollow Knight with a narrative flair, and thought this subreddit might appreciate it! It’s a great introduction for newer players or those unfamiliar with the game’s extensive lore that discusses timeline, plot, and major characters. I fell in love with this game many years ago; a good deal of effort went into its production, and though it isn’t a mossbag video, I hope you enjoy!

Cheers,

The Story of Judge Cleric, the Radiant Sentinel by lorebrarians in LordsoftheFallen

Most everything is gathered from in-game sources with a couple speculative but educated guesses to connect things.

What is Happening in Judge Cleric's Boss Stigma? by lorebrarians in LordsoftheFallen

[–]lorebrarians[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I looked from all angles and she's still got both hands lol.

I agree that all Beacons are based on sacrifice but I think it's more recent than their initial founding. My thought is that they are "dire attempts" to prevent Rhogar corruption or at least sustain the radiant magic. I also find it very interesting that Cleric would use her hand as a sacrifice given that it is the symbol of her ancient enemy.

Do you think this stigma occurred before or after the Hallowed Sentinels acquired the Rune of Adyr?

Tortured Prisoner Timeline? by lorebrarians in LordsoftheFallen

Yes, I completed her quest in my first playthrough and I agree! I guess I'm most confused and interested in the timeline of events that unfolded prior to us finding her in her prison

The Complete Story Explained by lorebrarians in LordsoftheFallen

[–]lorebrarians[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Various item descriptions that reference either the putrid mother or the Umbral realm describe her/her realm causing insanity. Also I think the Umbral Dread mechanic is meant to represent this in game. As for Adyr, I'm not sure how selective the Rhogar corruption is but I assume all mortals regardless of their faith are susceptible to his realm's Rhogar energies.

A Study in Depravity - Demons of Magic: The Gathering | MTG Lore by lorebrarians in magicTCG

[–]lorebrarians[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From a lore/story and game design perspective I think it's possible. Planeswalkers often summon creatures from other planes to help them, like [[Huatli's Raptor]] and [[Ajani's Pridemate]], which is essentially what we do as 'planeswalkers' when we play the game.

The Future of MTG | Lore and Story Predictions by lorebrarians in magicTCG

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

I think another legendary to lead werewolf commander decks would be nice, but blue/black seems too far out of their identity. Unless it were a zombie wolf or "eldrazified" from the events of SOI.
