In Response To: Re: Fight Club Blake (Vid Boi)

Haha, that is quite an interesting theory. So the W'rkncacnter has a benevolent side to it.

A tangent idea, what if the player of Pathways Into Darkness never escaped the destruction of the temple, and when he was rebuilt using components salvaged from the site, he merged with the W'rkncacnter, allowing him to manipulate reality, but with little direct control? The ability was latent until his close proximity to the god awakening from the destruction of L'howon's sun, at which point he became able to navigate the fractured realities, as well as his own waking dreams, with the awakening of the god that slept within him.

: This could be elaborated into a genuinely awesome crazy plot theory! :D

: The Jjaro took "permanent measures" against the W'rkncacnter on
: Earth in the 1990s - what exactly are "permanent measures"
: against an entity which can not die? Obviously you could imprison it
: inside a star, but then again, obviously that has its disadvantages. A
: star, unlike a W'rkncacnter, is not immortal (not to mention far too
: susceptible to sci-fi WMDs). Maybe the Jjaro figured that out along the
: way and had better methods by the Earth-90s.

: Maybe they opted to convince/brainwash it to come over to their side?

: What if the Jjaro-W'rkncacnter sensed the plight of the enslaved S'pht and
: decided to act?

: "At the beginning of the universe, they were unmistakable in their
: entities, but as time has gone by, their existence has become difficult to
: detect among the chaotic elements of the universe, hidden in stars,
: trapped in storms, forever looking along the event horizons of black
: holes."

: ...or split into a couple hundred personalities that have nothing but their
: location and their varying degree of insanity in common?

: "The W'rkncacnter are those things that live in chaos, creating it
: around them."

: Isn't this actually a pretty good description of the entire protagonist cast
: of Marathon? What if, as one chaotic entity using illusions of
: "individuals" like body parts, the W'rkncacnter lured the Pfhor
: to it, wiped them out, freed the S'pht, called for Jjaro backup, overcame
: some internal conflicts regarding whether to let its old buddy out of the
: sun...

: But if you don't believe me, just think of this: "The sun burned them,
: but they swam on its surface."

: An ancient question comes to mind: "why exactly can the Player swim
: through molten lava , even if it does drain a lot of health?"
