: : Both on the Eidos page and in the Jason Jones
: interview
: Yes, this is what makes it more interesting. We know that
: according to GURPS Myth that Ravanna, Cluwyeh, Shiver
: and The Voiceless One are all the same spirit, most
: likely a different reincarnation for each name.
Just to be nitpicky, GURPS says that Ravanna is The Voiceless One and Culwyeh is Shiver, and that the two are somehow the same. We've come to a near-consensus that Shiver was a reincarnation of the Voiceless One.
: In all the pictures we see Soulblighter is lacking a nose
: and skin around his mouth, this would be the
: self-mutilation that he underwent to gain immortality.
: This also shows how he no longer has the frontal
: portions of his face intact. Now Ares mentioned how
: the Tales from Myth TFL comic still has that one
: cloaked ndividual of whom we know little to nothing
: about. But using this new information I think that
: Soulblighter would be the Faceless Man as oppose to
: this mysterious figure.
Except that The Faceless Man is turned from the light, while Soulblighter is an ancient evil. Just because he was good a really, really long time ago doesn't mean he didn't turn evil just a plain old long time ago, making him an ancient evil. I think "turned from the Light" people were good until Balor showed up and MADE them evil. So The Lurker and the Faceless Man, like Myrdred, were good until Balor bound them to his will.
: I could see it working either way in fact, but without
: support from Bungie on this topic it is hard to tell
: what to make of the mysterious prompt for the keyword
: Soulblighter . I honestly don't know what to believe.
: In the comic, Damas still has not undergone the acts
: of self-mutilation, yet we know him as an ancient
: evil. There is just too much speculation at this point
: and I would value the direct information such as the
: comic and the Disembodied Soul with more credability
: than an interview with alpha/beta information, some of
: which we know has been changed.
The Disembodies Soul doesn't always know what it's talking about. Besides, Soulblighter is a no-faced man, but not neccesarily THE Faceless Man (as I've already said). The comic, OTOH, I would trust, as that was designed to convey story data...
