In Response To: Re: Pronouns and genders of the Pfhor (Godot)

: Nice analysis. Thanks.

: Yes, Durandal on Bob's Big Date. It's the first time we see Tfear and realise
: that he is humanoid with 3 eyes.

: Hindmost is most likely coming from the works of Larry Niven. Greg K has gone
: on record stating that Larry Niven's Ringworld, Man-Kzin wars, etc was an
: influence on Marathon. Hindmost is "the one who leads from
: behind" in Larry Niven's work. So very similar. Creche is as you say
: a nursery. A "dried creche" is most likely a dead creche.

: Cheers
: Hamish

The Pfhor are bugs, so I kind of assume that the "creche" is an egg sac, like the kind cockroaches lay that like a billion hatchlings come out of. It would dry out pretty quickly if it were left undisturbed afterward, I think.

(Now excuse me while I go get some brain bleach)
