FFXV: Comrades lore
SPOILERS! (I think?, just read it at your own risk friends) (And apologies for my written english, its not my first language)
I just wanted to share one thing (like there´s more, but another time) in particular about lore of Comrades. You know when you start playing Skyrim (I still cant´about that one XD) Comrades and you have a amnesia. Through game you discover that you´re not the only glaive that has some problems with memories after the sighning ceremony. Then boom at the end fight Bahamut´s like: ”Yeah I took your memories and possibly revive you cuz you´re all bunch of traitors, so you owe us big time! Now fight me bitches If you wanna live like loyal swords to the True King!”
Yeah, so we´re traitors. But I am not gonna lie, It was like fresh air for me. Cuz first thing i thought was: “Ah, so we´re like those who survived. Glaives that were loyal. Maybe someone was traitor idk” NOPE! And I love it! (It also makes me wonder at the end how many glaives stayed loyal to Regis? Cuz I dont think Reg was a perfect king (sorry not sorry)
Then there is the ressurection. I am not entirely sure IF they were really revived? BUT BUT If they were! Is there a possibility that Luche Lazarus and co. is running around somewhere?! Like you go out take down monsters and then bam Tredd fucking Furia in the face! (and stealing your kill,bastard) Also it would be kind of nice If they ressurected Nyx, Pelna and Crowe. (Libertus would be so fucking happy!!)
I have no proof about this theory. But thank you If you read all the way down here. Be safe everyone! FOR HEARTH AND HOME!
PS: @crimson-sun has a FFXV Comrades materials in which survived Titus! Its nice reading with beautiful art! So go check it out if youre interested!
Lich and their Planets (PSR B1257+12 system)
The Pulsar, Lich, along with their planets, Draugr, Poltergeist, and Phobetor, are located 2,300 light-years away from the Sun in the Virgo Constellation. Lich was discovered on February 9, 1990, Poltergeist and Phobetor on January 22, 1992, and Draugr on April 22, 1994.
Poltergeist, Draugr, and Phobetor were one of the first exoplanets discovered, while Lich was the first pulsar found to have planets.
~~~Notes Under the Cut~~~
I find Lich's system quite fascinating! Being a pulsar, Lich is undead. The original star is gone, now only its fast spinning core remains. And the planets are slowly fading in a sense. Draugr is the closest and Poltergeist is second, being even closer to Lich than Mercury is to our sun.
Lich: I didn't quite know what I wanted to do at first. They are an undead creature and are typically wizards, but I wondered what one would look like as a fighter from DnD or a knight.
I don't know the relationship between Lich and his planets here. I imagine he's either their father or simply a protector of them.
Draugr: They're a Viking! I wanted to draw them as androgynous as many warriors in Nordic Cultures had men and women. I drew them as more "fresh" as Draugr wasn't discovered until much later compared to the rest. They are undead, but only the cataracts and scars are seen as of now.
Poltergeist: I'm going to be honest, she's inspired by the little girl from 1982's Poltergeist. Although I did add a little bit of Wendy Darling and myself to her
Phobetor: What can I say? I like the game Hades. I kinda wanted to round up the quartet with Phobetor but still add his own flair. The thing is, Phobetor isn't undead. In Ovid's Metamorphoses, Phobetor is one of the sons of Somnus (or Hypnos in Greek Myth). While he lives in the Underworld, he technically isn't dead like how Hades and Nyx aren't dead.
That is all.
