In Response To: Rubicon Volunteers - Final Screen (Steve Levinson)

Before I comment I need to admit I haven't played Rubicon yet (I know, it's on my to do list...)

This picture and text go pretty well with a player as Arthur (Pendragon, not Frane) theory...

Son of ether, bastard child of magic and technology, victory's fabric, weaver, and loom
Arthur was the bastard son of Uther Pendragon, made into mist by Merlin's magic

You were always his favorite
God's?

The constant struggle - a pursuit of balance for one, escape for the other
Kingly duty versus human passion

Favors for favors, a sword, a microchip, a friend
Excalibur, The Grail, Lancelot - Durandal, Durandal, Durandal

For you know as well as I that you cannot be Destiny without being a Hero
You are Destiny, and Arthur is a Hero (in the capital 'H' - archetype sense)

And of course the picture represents the transfer of Excalibur/Durandal, once destroyed, but returned by the Lady of the Lake (Leela?/Thoth?) forged anew.

Is there any content in Rubicon to support this crazed speculation? Or did I just get carried away by the pretty picture?
