#i'm sure there's some lore of how they ended up here but it eludes me tbh

Love this little cove because not only it is very pretty, but it's also home to a bunch of ranger pets so if your ranger is ever in need of like 7 new friends (fern hound, pig, boar, krytan drakehound, lashtail devourer, blue moa and jungle spider) but doesn't wanna hop onto multiple maps to do so, make sure to send them here instead!

I like to think that lilith's Angel DNA was still active or strong enough to last generations after generations. So if her Angel DNA got more thinner and thinner after generations, it would make sense for Mc to gain power AFTER forming some sort of pacts with the brothers.

This makes me wonder if Mc is the "special one" in her lineage to awaken this sort of power within themselves. If Mc had siblings, wouldn't that mean that Mc's siblings could also gain/awaken their power, too? Since they all share lilith's bloodline. Which could make some things very interesting.

I completely agree with you that Michael (or god) have their eyes on Mc considering how powerful they are (regardless of whether they're human or Nephilim). Maybe that's why Raphael was sent to the Devildom to keep one eye on Mc. Both realms are currently not at war, but i'm sure neither of them want that powerful being, aka Mc to become the others side weapon if something were to escalate. Maybe this is why Solomon once asked Mc to side with humanity instead. (I can't remember what lessons it was in NB).

Either that or they would try to get "ride of" Mc if they become too powerful and dangerous. and once more, according to biblical lore states that ridding the Earth of these Nephilim was one of God's purposes for flooding the Earth in Noah's time. So they have done it before.

Also, off topic but; You used to watch Supernatural?! Omfg, this brings back memories 😭

-Angsty Anon.

Oh dearest angsty anon. I did indeed watch Supernatural. I started watching while season 5 was airing. For many years, I was obsessed. Though it got to the point that I just watched out of habit because by the time I had invested in twelve or so seasons, I was like I'm gonna see this thing to the end.

Which is funny because I still haven't watched the end. One day, I will watch the last half of season 15. Who knows when it will be, but one day I'll do it. I also rewatched the first 8 seasons, but it's been a while.

Anyway, I think you can go with any of the options regarding the angel DNA. The game's canon on this topic is sparse so I really think you can just come up with whatever you want.

I hadn't previously considered the implications of MC's siblings. I suppose that's why I considered most of MC's power to come from their pacts and so on. My own MC has an older sister and I can't believe I never realized that she would also have some of Lilith's DNA. My MC's mom might, too!! Oh man I kinda feel like that has to be the case because it'd be really funny.

Sorry got a little off topic there. Raphael's cover story is that he's there to be the new exchange student, but I think his ulterior motives are to watch both Simeon and MC. And you know likely to report back to Michael about the goings on in the Devildom in a more general sense, too.

Does the Celestial Realm know about MC's heritage? I can't remember. Lucifer was keeping Lilith's resurrection a secret from his brothers, but I'm assuming nobody else knows? Does Simeon?? These details are eluding me.

I'm just wondering if that would matter to the CR, you know? Just another reason to keep track of MC is their angel DNA, right?

I wonder if they'd even be able to "get rid of" MC, even if they tried. It's hard to say since we don't know how powerful Michael or God/Father is. On the one hand, I would think MC's power would be off the charts at this point, but on the other hand well... that's God we're talking about, right? LOL.

Anyway, here's hoping no floods happen just to take out MC. We get enough of that from Lotan being summoned.

Working on a couple paragraphs of in-game lore from a journal you find. (In our world, Dr. William Dyer's arctic expedition did not end nearly as... happily.) We're a little torn, gameplay-wise, as to how much to make players read for the "detective game" mode (this is in a notes app on your phone, not click-through VN dialogue), but it's fun to write. And I'm sure I'll clean it up later. Doing a style-match is just way too verbose for a game.

Dr. Dyer wrote a lot. I guess he had plenty of time to, in the end. I think the stuff about the altar room is the most interesting. I have made camp in this queer, broken chamber. I am fortunate to have found it; it is sheltered from the elements and has a door that locks. Alas, its secrets continue to elude me. If this contraption ever did anything that might be of use to me, I cannot fathom how. Even worse: after some calculation, I have determined that I have made a mistake regarding food rations. I will most likely find my end here; a Franklin, not a Shackleton. I have not been fortunate enough to find seal-meat or anything else to gather; the desiccated remains of the erstwhile denizens of this place are inedible; and I will not resort to cannibalism. Nobody will find the bones of my companion gnawed upon, at least, not by human teeth. Should those five-pointed sucker-marks or worse appear on any human remains found here--supposing the bodies are even intact and not rent to pieces by some horrible musculature--it should be clear enough that it could not possibly have been my doing...
