I love* how you can get every single Legacy of Kain game on Steam... except for the first one, which is only available for the original PlayStation via whatever means you use to get PS1/PSX games.
*I don't actually love this
#Legacy Of Kain#Blood Omen 2#Soul Reaver#Soul Reaver 2#Legacy Of Kain: Defiance#but not Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain#because IP rights are a joke#and corporations are vile

There's so many little "if only" instances in LoK which build up into that massive tale of heroism gone awry. It drives me insane, but then again, that's what makes a good tragedy.
I was rewatching the Turel scene in Defiance and someone in the comments pointed out that Raziel immediately put away the wraith blade as soon as he realized it was his brother. He had no intention of fighting, and it almost seems like Turel didn't either. They were kinda just figuring each other out.
Then Raz asks why Turel hasn't tried to leave, and Turel appears on the verge of getting upset. He starts babbling about how "they" hound and tear at him, only for "them" to conveniently resurface at that very moment to cut him off. Turel clearly lost his last marble after that, but I can't help but wonder if things might've gone differently if he'd managed to get a few more sentences in.
Raziel adopted a noticeably more inquisitive attitude during this encounter in comparison to the curt rage with which he confronted the others, implying how far he's grown from the "ghoul of fratricide" we saw in Soul Reaver 1. I imagine he would've even considered joining forces with Turel, hence his question of why Turel stays: he might've thought of helping them both get out.
But no. The Hylden pop in just a moment too soon, and thus the last brother is also lost to the void.

Proof video games can have phenomenal writing. Video game companies should take some notes to learn how to make a compelling and interesting story.

The next set of Halloween Keyblades are done! This time we go to Nosgoth with Blood Omen, Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2, Blood Omen 2, Defiance, and Nosgoth!
Special shoutout to @INazeerudin for sending me to this series!
VAE VICTIS-
A Keyblade modeled after the bloodiness of Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain! This Keyblade is designed to increase the amount of health drops a target has! The handle is designed after a blood vial, and will move as the blade swings. The hilt guard is designed after the skull of the Soul Reaver, with various gold bat designs found in the menus of Blood Omen. The Shaft of the blade is designed after the Blood Save Alters found in the game, with the "blood" portion of it forming a bat-like wing for the teeth. The token is a blood health potion. The world logo shows the Pillars of Nosgoth, with various vampire fangs beneath. The name of the keyblade comes from the line that Kain would often say, death to the conquered.
PREDESTINED SOUL-
A Keyblade modeled after the amazing look of Raziel from Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver! This Keyblade is designed to increase the lightning damage from spells. The crossguard is designed after Raziel's scarf, with the sides being his tattered wings. The shaft of the blade is designed after the Wraith Blade, with the teeth being a representation of Raziel's health UI. The keychain follows the same look of the Wraith Blade, with the token being the health upgrade. The world logo shows the destroyed Pillars of Nosgoth with the Elder God beneath it.
PARADOX PILLARS-
A Keyblade modeled after the pillars of Nosgoth as seen in Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2! This Keyblade is designed to have Time Stop last longer. The hilt guard and shaft features the destoryed pillars, with the Pillar of Balance being front and center. The pommel and bottom of the hilt is the Elder God gripping the pillars. The shaft of the blade, formed of the Pillar of Balance, forms into the wing of Janus Aldron to form the teeth as well. The chain being that of another tentacle of Elder God. The token being Janus Aldron's Heart of Darkness. The world logo shows the prestined Pillars of Nosgoth, as well as the corrupted and destroyed pillars. The name comes from the fact that Raziel continued to become a paradox, as well as the various pillars.
HIDDEN GLYPHS-
A Keyblade modeled after the Glyph technology seen throughout Meridian in Blood Omen 2! This keyblade is designed to have high knockback on enemies. The entire keyblade is designed after the various piping and technology powered by the Glyphs used by the Sarafan. The teeth of the blade is the gasous form of the Glyphs with the head of the Hyldan. The token is that of the Nexus Stone. The World Logo is that of Meridian, where most of the game takes place. The name comes from the fact that the Glyphs hold a lot of secrets.
BLOODBOUND SOULS-
A Keyblade modeled after the dual nature of Legacy of Kain: Defiance! This keyblade is designed to have life steal and can stun a target. The hilt of the blade is designed after the Soul Reaver, with a dual helix of Raziel's Soul energy and Kain's blood powers. The helix forms a wing for the teeth. The token is a half and half symbol combining both vampire's symbols. The world logo has a combination of bats and soul frays. The name comes from the fact that Kain was the one to turn Raziel into a vampire (Bloodbound), and their souls seemingly are tied by faith.
DEATH TO THE DEAD-
A Keyblade modeled after the elements of the cancelled Nosgoth game! This keyblade is designed to have extended combos. The hilt guard is designed after the Nosgoth pillars logo, with the shaft of the blade being from the Key item found for the external chests. The teeth of the blade is designed after the Rune symbol. The token is said Rune. The World logo has the symbol of both the human hunters and the vampires. The name comes from one of the achievements of the game, as well as the fact that the game is cancelled.

Do you ever think about the fact that Vorador and Raziel were burning with rage the moment Janos died
#legacy of kain#lok#listen to me#no one loved Janos as much as they did I said what I say#do you ever THINK about how Vorador's behavior toward Raziel changed............#like he went from being wary of him in SR2 to let him enter Janos' tomb in Defiance.........#and I don't think it's only because Janos sees Raziel as the messiah#it's definitely not just because of that#he gets that Janos means a lot to Raziel too if he wants to resurrect him#and I think that they got this boy of mutual understanding you know#yeah uh I am normal about all that obviously

When I open up Legacy of Kain: Defiance after a while and bud's cape is already getting stuck on invisible hooks the moment I spawn in XD
Curse you, Mobius!
(It was a simple fix for me, just needed to mess around with the graphics settings a bit, but still XD)

Just about 26 years of waiting and planning and then 3 months between the line art and shading sessions, he is done.
As many people who know me know, this game series is always referred to as my "lifes blood". Video games, vampires, the list goes on.. I wouldn't have met such amazing people without it, I wouldn't have taken certain paths in my life without it! It took me not only this many years to think of a tattoo for my love for Legacy of Kain, but it also to finding the right artist. I've met many and none of them wow'd me with their take on all sorts of styles as Mikey Fishhook has! I gave him references, told him about the game, about Kain and said "I want to see what you do!" and I couldn't be more over the moon with it! Collectively the tattoo took 6 hours, 2 for the line art and 4 for the shading.. Most of which I was asleep for... Only true traumatized tattoo enjoyers will understand that lol
My artist at the time of me posting this, October 12th, 2024, has not posted his HD images of the finished piece. But! I beg of you to give him a watch, a like or any sort of love toward his tattooing work! MikeyFishhookTattoo can be found on: Instagram : (HERE) Website : (HERE) Facebook : (HERE)
Thank you for reading and remember, we got a countdown until the remasters release in December!! Go support any aspect of Legacy of Kain that's out there right now! From wonderful fan-artists to companies who have sparked life back into this IP! We are resurrected! We are thriving! WE ARE WORTHY!
