Re: Old Flood Theory revisited

In Response To: Re: Old Flood Theory revisited (Ciarán)

: Nice ideas there.

: One question - where's the Flood on Sigma Octanus IV then?

The Flood may have died off or are buried deep underground in hibernation. With no hosts on Sigma Octanus IV 60,000 years ago, what else could the Flood do (if arriving via the meteor)?

: I was just struck that the idea of a Flood form and some star charts being in
: the asteroids is a bit like the Vang military form and the capsule it's in
: at the beginning of "The Vang: The Military Form". Plus, the
: idea of the Flood being able to hibernate is similar to the longevity of
: the Vang, for example the battlemaster form in the Starhammer, or in fact
: any of the forms that come up in the books. Lots of parallels :-)

: While the Flood are definitely inspired by the Vang, I'm not sure if Bungie
: has made them quite so dangerous. Plus I don't think there's as many
: variations on their forms. Bungie no doubt have added their own creativity
: into the mix and come up with something similar, but different.

: Ciarán.
