Re: A deeper look at the Precursors.

In Response To: A deeper look at the Precursors. (Postmortem)


Really enjoyed the article! Great thoughts and great parallels to other stories!

After reading Cryptum and watching the Origins bits in Legends, I've always wondered if this image...

was a Flood infection form or possibly a view of the Precursor's head. When I first read Cryptum, this was the first thing I visualized when the Precursor was described.

I don't know why the Flood pure forms had never really occurred to me before, but I feel like you're on the right track here. We know that there is a big connection between the Flood and the Precursors, but it may be more genetic that we thought.

I like the idea of a "renegade" Precursor creating a sort of antithesis to life. Where the average Precursor worked to build and support life, this one created something... different. I've doubted since the first time I read Cryptum that we were dealing with an "average" Precursor.
