Rae lore goes bonkers
Spoilers for "Shards of his Mind" lore, be warned So uhhh, how we feelin about that lore? Fable messing with Raes memories, Perix and Fable working together, Fable killing Alerion, small eye duo house. i suspected for a looong time that Fable was bad, but having confirmation just gives me even more thoughts. first, we can see how much better Fable treated Icarus than Rae when they were younger. Rae lived in the basement after Fable came along. before he shared a room with Icarus, when Isla was around. when Fable came, Icarus got an expansion, while Rae got kicked out to the basement. now as much as i can understand them not wanting to share a room with a 7 year old, Rae couldve easily gotten a room of his own. now, the memories Rae was able to see. first, Fable taking Isla. it was my theory he took her, but 1 thing i do not understand is why he took her to the end. "Lennarius and Soul could not keep us apart forever" "it is time for you to return home my love". we know Soul and Len helped Isla get away. but if Fable wanted to take Isla home, the End doesnt seem like the correct place, which is curious. i think Fable mightve used Isla as a.. i dont know the correct word, sacrifice? proof? wanted to show Enderian what hes capable of, if she doesnt give him what he wants. Isla didnt want to go with him, knew he was dangerous, knew he was evil. other memory, from Perix' shard, was when she got pulled by Fable into Purgatory in a dream. it was his first time actually using Enderians power. he recruited Perix to help guide the others to free him, Perix getting Rae as her new temporary vessel in return. he also offered her a place in his court, but we can see how Fables promises go. and the last.. Alerion. he wrote a book we saw before, Sontariv. i believe it was censored before? the full book says "im writing to you with urgent message. Fable is almost here and hes not leaving survivors. i need to be sure you get Will out of here safely. i know we arent on best terms but please, do this for me". Alerion knew Fable was coming for him, yet he did not run. he knew Fable was going to kill him and didnt even protect himself. i think he knew Fable wouldnt get his power? somehow transferred it to Enderian before? theres also the thing of, Epros watched Alerion get killed. Epros saw, knew how Fable acted. the primordials dont seem to like Fable, Epros stuck with Enderian instead of him (or Netherum) after the Aether fell. Alerion knew Fable was evil. and an important thing.. Alerions death didnt start the war. the war was already going, before Alerion was killed. personally i think the war started because of Fable wanting power, Alerions power. maybe after Fable took Isla to the End? dont have any theories on that yet- anyways me when the lore thats been happening, its so gooddd

          a). even though now most people call me doe cuz of bumblebee, you were the first person to reply to that post and just because milk suggested fawn/doe and it stuck doesn’t mean I love birdie any less 
          b.) it means a lot that you suggested it in the first place and while I was finding links for this post I came across this ask where you call me birdie :> p.s. you still mean a lot to me and I hope you’re okay <3 
8.) every single time you sent me a picture of a frog :),, also that one post about taking fake shots of water still sends me but I can’t find it to link it,, and also everything you listed on this post including the fact that it is inspired by my post
9.) when you agreed to talk to people for me when I was panicking thinking they were going to die but had to go to sleep. that means so much that you would take that role on and dude I am so so sorry I ever asked that of you.

19.) I love your vibes. I can’t say this enough but somehow you are just so wonderful to me,,, you are amazing I can’t describe it. you are ethereal and terrific and your features could be anywhere from beautiful to cryptic to solid to handsome but I promise you that there is something unique about you. a bit of mystery and magic left over from the days when fairytales were real. you have all the power of the sun and light and fire in both the life giving and the destructive aspects. you are so perfect and wonderful thank you 
20.) because you told me “you do not deserve to be traumatized” and in all honesty that slapped me into reality. if i still had my old Tumblr I probably would’ve screenshotted it so I could get the exact quote but I do not know how to make you understand How Much That Helped me 
all in all,,,, I must end the list here because I need to go be productive. alas.there is more I didn’t even BEGIN to mention,,, but kip, you are my rae of sunshine. someday we are going to go be cryptic authors in Scotland who disappear into the woods, perhaps to hunt with the faeries, perhaps no, who knows. we will become part of the local lore,, independent and happy and spooky. 
I love you so much!  also sorry I went through your archive to find all this,,,, to be fair I already did it once to find my posts <3 
I would never say that just one person “saved me”. thats too big of a responsibility to share. but kip, you helped save me, in ways I can’t explain, from myself and from death and from an abyss of numbness. you saved me from a thousand tiny deaths and gave me a thousand new pieces of life and I would not be the person I am today without you. I love and appreciate you so much and you bring me sunlight and joy and peace and connection. you are a true friend to me. thank you for being here. you deserve the world and so much more.

Bionicle G2- Redone and Expanded
Some time around the cancellation of Bionicle G2 in 2016, I took the moment to be really dissatisfied with the theme as a whole, like everyone else. I had so many questions and the lore, plot, world-building, and characters were so minimal that I just wished it was all redone, and in a way that extended past a second a year.
Thus, I cobbled together several bits of writing, drawings, and various other ideas that I had for a Bionicle G2 AU, and began working on a new continuity of sorts!
As the name implies, this fan continuity I made (dubbed RaE for short) is an adaptation of the Bionicle G2 storyline and world, with quite a few differences.
For starters; The characters, specifically the Okotans and Toa, are humans. They’re not referred to as such, but in terms of appearance and capability, they ARE humans.
Part of the thought process for this decision was due to the fact that the Okotans and Toa in the original G2 were confirmed by Ryder Windham to be fully organic; Likewise, they could reproduce and have families. Additionally, I felt that giving most (thought not ALL) characters a human appearance happened to, fittingly, humanize them more. 
Another key difference in RaE is the plot and overall world-building. It’s meant to be way more in-depth in terms of lore, characters, etc. The plot is mostly the same, but with some alterations to give it more sense, dynamic, and likewise streamline it all together.
The differences become REALLY apparent, however, in the latter half of the adapted ‘2016′ year. From there, the plot really begins to take off and diverge, and instead of ending with the Toa returning to the stars and Makuta’s defeat, the story continues with a new set of foes; the Dark Hunters.
The idea is that I wanted to create a longer storyline with more characters, locations, and adventures. Needless to say, a HUGE amount of inspiration is taken from Bionicle G1, with several characters and other facets of world-building being done as a direct inspiration, or meta nod, to the original source material.
Some of the characters are different as well. In G2, the Toa had pretty different personalities from their G1 counterparts, and seeing as how their G1 personalities were always well-written and done, unlike the G2 take...
I’ve decided to stick with the G2 interpretation of the Toa’s characters and personality, except, as you guessed it, Redone and Expanded. For example, Kopaka is a hot-headed hero who fiercely stands for what is right and tries to be stoic, but is ultimately a little clumsy yet still very human. 
No doubt some of these takes are jarring, but I decided to do them because some of these changes felt like interesting, alternative ways to take on the whole ‘elemental personality’. Instead of Ice being cool and calm, in RaE its Toa has emphasis on its brittle, unyielding qualities, as well as its transparency. There’s less emphasis on Fire’s rage, and more on its passion and ability to instill life, etc.
Similarly, in RaE I’m tackling Makuta’s character and various interpretations of him, although these are a lot less definite. So far I’m still a little uncertain of how to approach his character; I don’t think I want to make him the scheming, sharp mastermind that Teridax was, and instead focus on the image presented of him as a petty, jealous brother of mysterious force. Likewise, I’m trying to balance between making Makuta sympathetic, or making him a terrible monster of a person that the Toa have to face, all while considering his motives, his status as a close brother of Ekimu, etc.
All in all, this fan continuity is exactly as the name implies; A reinterpretation of Bionicle G2, while at the same time an expansion of some of the ideas and interpretations it offered. Bionicle RaE is not entirely, fully-planned out... My interest and focus on it can wane and then come back. It’s never going to go away, though, but don’t expect me to start writing a full story about it, at least not anytime soon.
For now, I just felt like sharing this fan continuity I spent a lot of time on and developed, and as a member of the Bionicle fandom I think it’s important to keep it alive with content- Hence why I’m sharing these ideas I made. Even if I won’t necessarily do anything from them, I feel it’s better to show them and bring something to the table, than nothing.
Now that I’ve introduced Bionicle RaE, I’ll probably create a master post of sorts that will act as an archives for all my other posts on the continuity. I imagine it’ll be updated with links to each new post and a short summary as time goes on.

Villains better suited for The Rise Of Skywalker instead of Palpatine
The problem with Palpatine’s return is it undermines the entire story of the  Prequel and Original Trilogies. Palpatine outliving Anakin, Obi-Wan, Padme, Han Luke and Leia is the ultimate desecration of Star Wars. “it was always the plan to bring Palpatine back” and that is the problem. The mere thought of bringing back Palpatine back undermines Anakin’s sacrifice and redemption. It also undermines the story of The First Order, instead of bothering to make Snoke the big bad or focusing on Kylo Ren as an absolute tyrant as Supreme Leader, they choose to instead go backwards, thus giving a giant fuck you to all 3 trilogies. So here are how I think the villain of Episode IX should have been handled.
Rae Sloane. Rae Sloane founded The First Order! Sloane was loyal to the Empire, so much so, rather than allowing it to cease to exist, she recruited other loyalists and they fled to the Unknown Territories beyond Jakku. She founded the First Order. Together with Hux, she could usurp control of the First Order and become Supreme Leader, which would start a civil war, those loyal to Sloane and those loyal to Kylo. We can have someone who could be a great antagonist to Leia. The founder of The First Order and the mother of the Resistance. What makes Rae a compelling character is the fact that she believes what the Empire is doing is right. In her eyes, the Empire is doing the right thing, purging lawlessness from a galaxy overrun by bureaucrats that care little for the common people. She’s wrong, but like great villains before her, audiences can see where she’s coming from even if they don’t agree with it. Throughout her many appearances in the supplemental Star Wars narratives, she is constantly pushing for the Empire to be “just.” When things start to fall apart after the Battle of Endor, Rae struggles to keep the remnants of the fleet playing by the unspoken rules of warfare and is frustrated to see the Empire careen into backstabbing and incompetence. You can see Rae’s influence in the First Order with its strict hierarchy and minute by-the-books stringency that makes Palpatine’s Empire look positively laissez-faire by comparison. Supreme Leader Rae Sloane would make The First Order a force to be reckoned with and what better way to end it than with the First Order’s founder?
The Grysk. The Grysks were introduced in the new canon novel Thrawn:Alliances. They are what brings Thrawn to the Empire in hopes of co-existing to fight this threat in the Unknown Regions. Grysks are a species living somewhere in the Unknown Regions. Creatures half of myth, whom few have ever seen. It is said that they are nomads, with no fixed home, traveling in spacecraft so numerous they blot out the stars. They are said to be terrifying warriors, overwhelming their opponents by sheer numbers and ferocity. The fact that these intergalactic conquerors are not the main threat in the Sequel Trilogy is baffling. You could've had Ben Solo sense they were coming during his Jedi days and made the ultimate sacrifice to become Kylo Ren and join The First Order because he knew the New Republic was not ready to face such a threat. It wouldn’t make what he was doing the entire trilogy right, but it would make explaiin why he turned and what his motivations are.
Supreme Leader Snoke. Killing off Snoke was a mistake, everyone knows that, so why not reveal he survived. Even Andy Serkis believes he should've lived and why waste such a talented actor? The perfect way to end the saga is to bring Snoke back. I know just how Snoke could have been brought back. The Darth Momin comics could've been the way to bring him back. Darth Momin kept his spirit within his helmet, so who's to say Snoke could not have done the same with his ring? Snoke's ring is from the catacombs of Vader's castle. It was made of gold and was enscribed with glyphs from the Four Sages of Dwartii. Ancient force users and Palpatine had the statues. When Snoke was cut with the lightsaber, everything but his hand with his ring fell off the thrown. It just sits there, untouched. And when Kylo puts the ring on, he becomes possessed by Snoke. It was all apart of the plan to transfer his soul into Kylo Ren, a younger and more powerful vessel.  Or even better, reveal Snoke as Darth Plagueis. It makes sense and ties the three trilogies together. Darth Plagueis was a powerful Sith Lord who could influence the midichlorians to create life and also save others from dying. He taught everything he knew to his apprentice, Sheev Palpatine (aka Darth Sidious), but he eventually lost his power and young Palpatine killed him in his sleep. How could Plagueis not foresee his own demise at the hands of his ambitious apprentice? Why did Plagueis suddenly “lose his power”? The truth is, he didn’t lose his power and he knew Sheev planned to kill him. It was part of the plan. By dying, I believe Darth Plagueis was able to transmit himself into Sheev and assume control of his body, almost like an infectious disease. Ever notice his name? Darth Plagueis. Plague, as in an infectious disease. Darth Plagueis unlocked the secret to immortality by moving from one body to the next, continuing his lifespan through multiple hosts over countless years. Ever wonder why Palpatine was so obsessed with training a powerful young apprentice? Surely he knew that one day the apprentice would want to overthrow him, so why train his own murderer? In Return of the Jedi, Emperor Palpatine continually provokes Luke to strike him down. Why would Palpatine want to be killed if the goal is longevity? Because Emperor Palpatine was assumed by Darth Plagueis and, through his death, he would then be able to transmit himself into a new host body. He wasn’t just looking for an apprentice, he was looking for a new body since Palpatine’s body was growing old. Luke Skywalker was meant to be the next host body for Darth Plagueis. But unfortunately for Plagueis, Darth Vader had a change of heart and defeated the Emperor. Snoke was Plagueis. It’s the only way to make things work. StarWars.com describes Snoke as a seeker of arcane and ancient lore, and the Last Jedi Visual Dictionary shows that he is a collector of rare memorabilia. At some point, Snoke must have found the wreckage of the Death Star on the forest moon Endor, and was infected by Darth Plagueis when he came upon the corpse of Palpatine. Did you ever wonder why Snoke thought it was so important to complete Kylo Ren’s training? It’s because Snoke was Darth Plagueis and he was training his next host body. Plagueis didn’t have a choice but to infect a really old political influencer like Snoke. Kylo was being groomed to become the next host body. Remember the infamous(ly terrible) scene in The Last Jedi where Snoke is “predicting” how Kylo Ren will kill Rey? Wasn’t it a little too obvious? Wouldn’t Snoke have been able to foresee Kylo’s treachery? See through his conflict? It’s because he wasn’t predicting Rey’s death, he predicted his own. He knew Kylo would kill him. He deliberately bullied and provoked Kylo in order to stir his anger into hatred to further fuel his dark side and lead him to completing his training.  So let's say Kylo puts on his ring for his official coronation as Supreme Leader and Plagueis take's full possession of Kylo Ren, Plagueis had an apprentice who has fully cemented himself into the dark side and now a new and more powerful body. Darth Plagueis has everything he needs to way waste to the Resistance and the final destruction of the Jedi.
Kylo Ren and the Knights Of Ren. This entire trilogy has been building up Kylo Ren as the villain and the Knights Of Ren have been built in mystique ever since. Kylo Ren has fully embraced the dark side and The First Order, his story is not of redemption, but condemnation. We need to see his motivations. Show us why he chose The First Order and why he chose to rule it as The Supreme Leader after killing Snoke. Show us his tyranny as the Supreme Leader. We need to see that the Knights Of Ren being completely loyal to Kylo Ren. We need to see them as the only survivors of Luke’s Academy. Show us companionship between Kylo and his knights. We need to see them as being Kylo’s personal army and trump card. Unlike The Praetorian Guards who were faceless Guards who all just die. Let the Knights Of Ren be people and only unmask in the presence of their Supreme Leader and show them as Kylo's only true family in his eyes. We know that the purpose of The Knights Of Ren will destroy The Resistance and finally destroy The Last Jedi. Show us what reasons Kylo has that he thinks he can justify what he’s doing. And show us that Kylo Ren is wrong. Show us that Kylo believes that he’s right, but that his belief doesn’t justify what he’s doing, the people he’s hurt, the lives he’s destroyed, the damage that he thinks will be justified if they can only get what he really wants. Show us that Kylo Ren is wrong, show that his fall will be hard and that he has to suffer with the consequences of his actions.
The climax of the movie should be at Vader's Castle on Mustafar. The new Jedi have risen, The Skywalkers. Rey, Finn, Poe, Rose and Jannah have become the Skywalkers and will face Kylo and the Knights Of Ren. It ends in Kylo's defeat and Rey severs his connection to the force and live the rest of his days out imprisoned for war crimes against the galaxy.

"Forces of Destiny” wastes its pretty awesome name
A hopefully constructive critique of Forces of Destiny down below, read at your own risk but I would love to hear your opinions and rebuttals. I have made an effort to make my points more intellectual and fair while staying away from mentioning ‘gender’ as one of the shows short comings.
TL;DR: I wish Forces of Destiny chose the characters highlighted based on genuine stories to be told or interesting characters to explore instead of answering Star War’s many years of pandering to Males by pandering to Females (Discounting this last episode which I thought finally did a good job) (I just want Wedge Antilles and Norra Wexley to be highlighted)
   Spotty Characterization
Tumblr media
Seriously, all of the time I’ve spent reading, watching, and learning about Chewbacca would never lead me to the belief that he would be cowering behind Leia as a Wampa approaches. To me, Chewbacca’s appeal is his loyalty to his friends and how deep he cares for them so unless you are telling me that Chewbacca does not consider Leia to be his friend it is just off. It appears that they chose Chewbacca, and then realized the cowardly role he would have to play and left it.
Forces of Destiny appears to adjust a support character’s attitudes in order to help the highlighted character of the week stick out more and really shine and scream “HERO”. This being a children’s cartoon, I can understand the writer’s desire to have the background characters be extra two-dimensional. However, I believe that this can be done better by setting out the role a secondary character will play in order to highlight the primary character and then choose a character who fits the role.
   Playing it too Safe
Tumblr media
Firstly, where is the timeline placement of this episode, they act like they have never met before but they also show no signs of knowing each other in the Star Wars Rebels episode despite both appearing in the same season apparent by Sabine’. Tangent aside, this episode did nothing for either of these characters and didn’t show any important overall plot points.
Of course it didn’t, this is a children’s cartoon and there wouldn’t be any deep lore or overarching and complex plot and I know that. But the show took two interesting characters and dulled them down along with the uneventful episode. Personally, this can be fixed by switching Sabine with Ezra and making it clear that the short takes place after their meeting in the show. Ezra has previously seen to have a much more interesting relationship with Leia as the latter helped the former learn how to move past the death of his parents.
Limiting Their Opportunities
Tumblr media
Now I'm going to appear to break my “not just scream FEMALE as the problem” rule for this last bit, if only in the slightest. By definition, making the show female centric does limit the amount of stories available to tell. Even taking this into account I believe that they are not using the show to its full potential (NORRA WEXLEY) by creating interesting shorts about characters that get little spotlight. The show could be so much more than it is right now. Imagine watching Hobby and Wedge fly as wingmen or Rae Sloane command a Star Destroyer repelling a squadron of B-wings
Currently, Lucasfilm’s answer to decades of pandering to a male audience seems to be pandering to a female audience. This is an action that I disagree with, yes we need equal representation but I believe that a stand needs to be taken saying “from this moment on we will be more inclusive to women” instead of creating a show just for women.
Before someone talks about giving girls good female role models, while having diverse role models are important the gender of the character is not what determines if they will be a child’s role model. For example, I (who is indeed, a man) has always looked up to Padme’s idealism and political prowess while my sister (who is, shockingly, a woman) much prefers to look up to Obi Wans sass and calm domineer even when life is falling apart.
In conclusion, lets be real here, the target audience for this show just care about flashing colors, lightsabers, lasers, and cool starships and wouldn’t mind too much if Norra Wexely or Wedge Antilles was highlighted... so long as there is a cool space battle to be watched. With this in mind I believe that it shouldn't be too much to ask that the show to used as a cool way to expand the star wars galaxy in a meaningful way for (literally) all age groups.

Backgrounds: (traits that catalogs a character’s connections, his possessions, and position in the world)
Cult: The Lightbringer Cult lies in secret throughout Central Treqe. It is an offshoot cult of the Cult of Illumination that began by a former follower of that cult. The cult found a foothold in CentralTreqe and has spread through the urban and rural areas in the last decade. Now word has spread about the cult that the Lightbringer has come in the form of Rae. These individuals live to ensure that Rae is provided with prayers and support in her journey to fulfill there destiny of bringing about the rise of equality and peace throughout the world. There are nearly 500 cultist spread mainly throughout Centrel Treqe, yet some members live in the major cities of the rest of the city-state of Treqe. The last couple of years has brought an enthusiasm by members that unfortunately has caught the attention of an individual who is now investigating the claims of a few captured and interrogated cult members in the city of Treqe.
Influence: The King, Dynasts and Meridian Knights have all heard of the young teen Rae. Her fame has spread throughout most of the urban areas of the city-state. No one knows exactly who Rae is but they are aware she is a child of adolescent or teen years that has many speaking of her. The Dynast, Red Lady and the king have individuals searching for this being. It is believed that she is an Anathema of great healing ability with the peasants and slaves of Central Treqe. It is only a matter of time before she is found by those who want to kill her. Note: As of now no one really knows exactly how Rae look, she has never fully exposed her face in any encounter with those she has healed or even those of her cult. They only know her by her size and the hooded robe she is always seen wearing, and she speaks in the an obscure language with a few words or Riverspeak.
Familiar: Silent Might is an albino eagle and pet of Rae Lightbringer. It has the intelligence of an adolescent that is able to communicate with Rae as well as any human being. As long as Silent Might remains within a hundred yards of Rae, the teen is able to use any of Silent Might senses through her familiar as if she was in the exact location of her familiar. Rae is also able to draw a bit of Essence from her bird so long as they are touching each other in someway. For example Silent Might riding on Rae’s shoulder would allow for the transfer of the Essence.
Essence: (One of the most important traits in Exalted. As an energy, Essence is life, breath, power–the essential, all-pervading animating energy of Creation. The higher the trait the more powerful a person’s soul. Being with high Essence are hard to affect with magic. The average person has very little Essence as well as animals. Exalted and magical beings have more Essence at least double that of the average person. Normal humans are unaware of the Essence within themselves and others, they cannot manipulate Essence.)
Rating is above average for a recently Exalted being. Rae exalted about seventeen months ago at the age of eleven, the weirdest thing is that since exalting she has not changed physically as puberty for what ever reason has not started for her. This is something she is really not that concerned with. Very few people has seen Rae’s face since her exaltation. No one outside of a few cult members have seen Rae’s face, this includes her adoptive parents and siblings in the town of Triby. Noh the local cult leader and those members of the cult that have knew her before her exaltation. She has matured significantly since gaining her powers, her maturity is about on par with a young adult. Rae most trusted friend is Silent Might who mysteriously appeared soon after her exaltation took place. Besides her white eagle she trust her family more than anyone else. Three days after her exaltation with the help of Noh and a few other cult members Rae was secreted away from her home town about three months ago. The plan is to get away from those she cared most for and to go to the only hidden temple of the Lightbringer cult, located in the city of Treqe. She is in the village Loda at the start of the story. This is a small mining village located in the southeast of Central Treqe.
Willpower: (measures both determination and emotional stability; used when pushing a character’s mind and body beyond their normal limits while attempting to do something extraordinary) Rae is diffident and a little shy
Willpower is used for: Free Successes Activating a Virtue (instead of gaining a free success a character adds dice equal to their Virtue to the die pool of an action) Resist Mental Powers
Compulsions: If a character loses all of their Willpower, they are subjected to each of their virtues that are rated above average.

Icarus thoughts go brr
So like. Icarus' house is more wacked, the walls, frame and some of the floor changed (the redstone looks like the Quixis symbol which i find interesting), even stuff outside. But.. Icarus doesnt think about what Fables doing meant for Quixis, for the Worldport. Beacuse im sure it hurt Quixis. Quixis has tried to hold the wack so it doesnt get out of control, if i remember correctly. now, im sure Icarus' house will get more and more wacked, because Quixis wont be able to control it as much. after all that Icarus has done, they still care, so i think they wont spread the wack intentionally, but im sure they have more important worries, with Worldport most likely being even more hurt. Fable looked inside the multiverse, he saw the power, probably saw the Worldport, he knows what power Icarus has within them. how powerful is the multiverse, how powerful is Quixis. Icarus's train of thought is something. they are mad at us, the things, because we're trying to get them to believe us. saying that Fable is bad, to not lie about what happened to Centross and Fable. we're trying to tell them what we think is right, they want to believe what they think is right. and even though they say that theyre not like they were before, they act very much like it. "its for their own good", weve heard that before, it didnt end well. saying that "they didnt know what they were doing before".. but theyre not exactly thinking straight right now either. theyre following their goal, trying to prove that what theyre doing is right. sounds familiar doesnt it? theyre very much bad at hiding their lies, Rae noticed it, which im glad about. we're gonna get more angsty eye duo times with what Rae saw in todays lore, which is gonna be interesting to see. Icarus convincing themselves theyre right, siding with the enemy, Rae wanting to help everyone, knowing who the evil one is. a small note i find interesting, most of the things want to try to convince Icarus that theyre wrong, that Fable is evil. my lil exp lvl lad, (Expyr) who i hold in my lil hands, doesnt wanna do that. they sure have their opinions about both Fable and Icarus' actions, but theyre on their 'i told you, dont come crying when you see youre wrong' arc. in like the most /lh way possible. i simply hold the chat personas in my lil hands, chat having part in lore and being able to talk to the characters is such a cool concept
