: You see Shiver I on the Failure postgame for A Traitor's
: Grave and also in the TFL Comic. She's kinda withered
: and mummified-looking, though not as falling apart as
: the average Myrmidon. An interesting thing is that she
: has swirls of darkness cloaking her eyes, which
: Rabican tears away during her defeat. Thus she's
: forced to see herself clearly, wounding her vanity and
: disorienting her long enough for Rabican to strike.
Yeah, she did look more human in the TFL postgame. So maybe the SB form is a result of her resurrection through Tramist's Mirror.
Was she as powerful before the resurrection? I guess we'll never really know. I'd guess no, since the resurrection has clearly bulked her up. Not to mention let her fly etc.
: Yes, Avatara of the early Wolf Age. Either was Light
: until Connacht returned as Balor and "bent him to
: his will"; or, going by M3, betrayed Connacht at
: the end of his war and was exiled thereafter.
Which is more generally accepted?
: "Source of the Five Hundred Poisons" is
: Myrdred's title, incidentally.
Oops. Forgot the Creation level.
: That's Fang-Grinder. Mauriac (before he was Prince Regent
: for Alric) reclaimed his stained honor by killing him.
Ah, true.
: Bonesplitter...I used to think this was Shiver, since it
: sounds like a . Myrmidon name. (Although nothing save
: M3 actually SAYS flat out that Shiver's a Myrmidon).
IMHO I think Bonesplitter is more of a male name, but that's just me. Were there many/any female Myrmidons (aside from Ravannah)? I still think that it seems more masculine then feminine. But it all depends on whether or not there are female Myrms.
: On the other hand, TFL Shiver fits very well with the
: "Voiceless One" title. But then M2 Shiver
: doesn't fit too well...so you can pretty much assign
: one of the two titles to Shiver, and the other to the
: fifth Fallen Lord.
True. I prefer her as the Voiceless One to Bonesplitter. Definately suits her. Perhaps her sonic powers (the ripple attack strikes me as a sonic attack rather than an elemental one) are a result of her ressurection as well?
: In the pre-release info "The Faceless Man" and
: "Soulblighter" are listed separately...so
: you could take the Faceless Man to be the sixth.
: (Damas isn't entirely faceless, after all.) Or you
: could take it to be The Lurker, as mentioned in GURPS.
: Twice-Born Daughter of Flood and Famine, weather and
: plant-control spells, mistress of natural disasters.
That is cool. Where did the Flood and Famine etc. come from? If it weren't for the 'Daughter' at the start, I'd almost give the Lurker title to SB (since he is Twice Born).
: And the seventh was Berel. Even though he was Unworthy.
You jest, surely?
