afk-lore

[dark heath]

Clever

[coral zodiac]

And we kinda accidentally do that again with Haelus and Framton 😂

[dark heath]

For this I'm jelly

I went for Haelus then....

Fram's fiery ass appeared.

[vale grove]

I always want to pet the Framton's ears, they looks so soft

[dark heath]

So I went for that.

[dark heath]

Yes, they are actually cute and long.

[quiet tinsel]

I want to pet morrow in general

[coral zodiac]

same

[trail kite]

I have to ascend Celestial Hypogean for the pushing purpose

But...If I have my luck, I will build Framton

[quiet tinsel]

Petting characters function in game when?

[lament meadow]

late as hell but tonyy confirmed that hypogeans will be included, it was just the weird wording in dons letter that threw people off

also nice mezoth! handsome boi

[dark heath]

Thank you, handsom chonk need more love indeed

[dark heath]

God bless

[lament meadow]

idk if mezoth would be awakened tho...hes already fairly solid as a hero with some investment, just not meta

that said...please lilith

[dark heath]

I'd say lore-based he could be. And actually, Talene was strong before too, but maybe it's just me. Let's make heros thiccer by awakening them.

[trail kite]

Thicczoth

Extra delicious

[vale grove]

Mezoth awakened would be dope

He's super cute

[dark heath]

And since he is actually eat a lot

It'd even make sense that he could grow stronger and bigger

||(And more handsome)||

[lament meadow]

LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

[rustic copper]

100 heroes. 4-6 awakened in a year.

[dark heath]

It doesn't sound that terrible IF you get the hero you wish for in this year.

[crystal tapir]

I wonder how most of the Maulers would react to that =p

[quiet tinsel]

Lmao now i need a list like this for every faction

[coral zodiac]

I think there is an afk tier maker, but I'm not sure

[lament meadow]

mezoth somewhere in between the "more please" and "tell anyone im enjoying this" tier

[rustic copper]

Which fraction would be a human,non-borned in lightbearer empire?

[lament meadow]

@obtuse coral get his ass

fucking discrod headass

how hard is it to spell discord for your shitty scams

[obtuse coral]

🙏

[vale grove]

[quiet tinsel]

is there anywhere where we can find all transcripts of all voyages of wonder?

[dark heath]

Now this is something I'd like to know / find too.

[trail kite]

Chap 9 of the silent blade (CN ver only)

Baden is so cute

BUT WHY LILITH HAVE TO KILL HIM

[quiet tinsel]

I want him to live happily with thane please

[trail kite]

I want him to be free from the control

And go back to Thane

[vale grove]

THIS IS GIVING ME LIFE

LOOK AT HIM

SO HAPPY

[rustic copper]

do you think they will make the demon stronger than zolrath?

so far at the moment, Ortrus, Zolrat and Morael are the 3 indisputably strongest characters. but will someone be stronger?

[quiet tinsel]

truly been a while since we had a god-tier hypogean

but with the recent foreshadowing we may just be getting one soon

[rustic copper]

Framton is not god tier? Lucretia is exactly at this tier due to the "double terror". Framton is supposed to be stronger than her.

[quiet tinsel]

fremon seems to be a somewhat smaller fry, still

otherwise talene would be at the same level as morael and orthos which sorta doesn't fit imho

[rustic copper]

at the very least, Talena should be at the level of the twins, the offspring of which is twin terror, which is the source of Lucretia's powers

although, the twins, although they do not seem at first glance, can be one of the strongest characters, right behind morael.

[rustic copper]

Talena swapped a defiant short dress for a modest white swimsuit.

[sage yarrow]

So what’s the story with artifacts I thought there where only supposed to be 5

[crystal tapir]

There were seven, and the class artifacts aren't part of them.

[sage yarrow]

Is there a lore explanation for class artifacts tho?

[crystal tapir]

There is, but I'll have to re-check the specifics real quick. One moment.

All of the class artifacts have that description.

[dark heath]

If we're talking about the in-game state and not about the lore he isn't god tier but very-very powerful in PvP, especially if you build him up. Sig, Furn and Engrave matters a lot. I can feel it on him as well. He is pretty squishy in PvE, so sometimes I have to do some tricks with the lineup. He can carry matches, it is really a thing but it's kinda strange sometimes. Sometimes he over DMG my fully built Ainz with almost 3 Lv Engrave and sometimes he just vibing behind and doing something else than fighting, because I can't find his DMG.

Talking about lore wise, he embodying an ancient archetype, which is one of the most oldest one; fire. In magic (I mean real magic) focusing on these matters a lot, since we are talking about ancient beings, which are already gathered a lot of power during these long times. They can not be compared to a recently "corrupted", "transformed" demon for example. Lore wise, Luc definitely couldn't be a match for Fram at all. But we don't know too much about his past, so we don't know how old he is. At this point, I wonder what is his story.

[quasi wedge]

isn't the twin terrors one of the old ones as well

not ancient god tier but i don't see why it wouldn't match up to frampton

unless we argue that having to merge with a human weakened it

[dark heath]

This is the first question, are they? Or not.

[quasi wedge]

sounded like the cult people thought they were but we don't know how they lost their original body or if they're just usually stuck in the void thing

[dark heath]

Personally I didn't read too much of the Twin Terrors nor having enough information to give a proper opinion about it, and in fact, we don't know too much of Framton's origin neither.

[quasi wedge]

yeah, it's not like he's THE fire god or anything either, just a demon that happened to be fire elemented

[dark heath]

Now if you try to think logically, and we assume that they are just stuck in the void, then they wouldn't mean too much harm for beings which are still free to roam around.

[dark heath]

Technically he have every fire he consumed, and all of the fire he consumed is a part of him.

[quasi wedge]

they must have been at least a threat in the past though, for the cult to even know about them

[dark heath]

Fire can not harm him, only the purest one, which is actually very close to consider him as a Fire God, but the purest fire still manage to burn him, so... we'll see. He defeated the Obsidian Finches, only Talene remained, but he also consumed some of the Solaris Flame, so who knows, I see it logical that after these, he probably reach a higher level.

[dark heath]

Yes, this isn't even a question, for sure!

It would be a mistake to think it otherwise.

[quasi wedge]

the finches weren't that strong but i guess added together he could have gotten a good amount of power off them

[dark heath]

Yes, and the Solaris Flame is above us in terms of purity.

This is why Framton actually turned towards them, as he found no flame worthy of his attention anymore, but that one, which was left. And he actually managed to consume at least one.

Talene herself alone wasn't a match for him, not even closely.

[quasi wedge]

talene was revived with all their ancestors added together (without their origin flame) and still barely matched until she awakened

so finches probably canonly as strong as regular humans with some magic (like the LB mages)

[dark heath]

Yes, and even for that, she needed a help actually. She'd probably die without Astar.

[quasi wedge]

we still don't know how strong frampton actually is but we did figure out talene is really sad

[dark heath]

Yes, this can be a thing, or/and also the proof of how much power Framton actually gathered during his life, which can be even long. Talene actually said when she saw Framton left, after the battel (Chapter 6) that they should start to train more harder.
Which can be actually a sign that even she knows that he'll return and probably in a stronger form.

[slim ore]

Sorry to cut in, but according to Zaphriels story the twin terrors were the most dangerous of all hypogeans, so they'd likely be above Frampton

[dark heath]

Who knows, from him? Absolutely possible, even without knowing not too much of him, but I already have a base image of his personality and habit, capabilities.

[quasi wedge]

that's the line i was originally thinking of

but then like...they did also need a human host or they're can't even do anything, so

[dark heath]

Probably, but ancient elements are older than humanity.

[quasi wedge]

[dark heath]

And ancient elements dont need humans.

[slim ore]

Ah, on that basis, the ice hypogean is a corrupted water Elemental

If I remember correctly

[dark heath]

The small comic came into my mind

Poor little birbie.

[quasi wedge]

i freaked when i saw the actual bird form lol

it was more bird than i was expecting

like i knew they were birds but...FULL BIRD

[dark heath]

I think time to pick up my lazy butt and start to re-read everything. Just for the sake of a more accurate lore. However the lore itself is moving forward.

[dark heath]

I think that was a breaking point in several humans mind

Especially in people who had a crush on her, lol

[quasi wedge]

B I R D

[slim ore]

Bord

[dark heath]

🍗

Birb

Hm, thinking about some part of the comic, when Fram killed Talene's mom, or when he killed a man attempting to protect the Forest, these were quite a graphic and painful deaths.

Having your brain being cooked in your skull? Absolutely brutal.

[quasi wedge]

i hate the awakened system itself but i do hope the hints in the event on ice really does point to khaz next, could be cool and a nice continuation for this whole fire arc

would be cool if they continue to have a story for these awakened instead of dropping it now

[dark heath]

Yes, Khaz, I actually kinda sad that I still struggle having him, because back then I can't afford to P2W a little bit and good heroes came out very fast; this is... not different today, but still.

[quasi wedge]

i haven't ascended khaz myself either, i do have a M +30 one though

[dark heath]

The awakening system is indeed, a little bit unfair, but for those who enjoy the lore, maybe... worth the struggle.

[slim ore]

Elemental Guardian of the ocean

[quasi wedge]

seirus

[slim ore]

Indeedy

[quasi wedge]

[dark heath]

[slim ore]

He's the current one, but khaz came before him

[dark heath]

Small steps matter.

[quasi wedge]

still waiting for official khaz and respen "reunion"

[dark heath]

Imagine that I was so focused on characters who were sympathetic for me that I don't even have he Twins ascended.

But I have Zikis, Fram, Mezoth, Zaph, Eziz.

My hero list is a total mess.

[quasi wedge]

oh, i always loved the twins out of the celehypos most of all

i like the idea of eternal "youthful" creatures herding humans lol

[dark heath]

Yes, not an ordinary idea that is for sure!

[slim ore]

Can't be as bad as mine lol. looks at 309 leofric

[quasi wedge]

[dark heath]

[slim ore]

Still need one more copy so I can start engraving him to 100

[quasi wedge]

he's super annoying in enemy teams though, but as an ally...oh well he's just ok

[dark heath]

At least you went for that booty.

[slim ore]

XD

[dark heath]

2 days ago I had a fight where Leof's stick or what the hell was in the ground stucked and my Fram, he was the carry, and he was wasting the damn timer hitting that sh...

It was so annoying.

[quasi wedge]

lol i can see it in my mind

[slim ore]

Ah yes, his abyssal Hound totem

Lovely ability

[dark heath]

I was like: Dude if you f*ck this up to me I won't continue engraving your ass anymore.

[quasi wedge]

did it work

[dark heath]

He actually succeed, dealt 370 mill DMG. I wonder how many was on that fkin stick.

xD

[quasi wedge]

xd

it's like vs numisu fights, the dmg numbers are always insanely high because most of them are on totems

[slim ore]

Leofric, the only unit who can stick bug dog you

[dark heath]

Oh God no... I have Vietnamese flashbacks from that totems.

Numi was the Leof of the old times.

[quasi wedge]

Vietnamese flashbacks?

[dark heath]

I actually lost a lot of battle because of those totems, so this is why I told that.

[quasi wedge]

why are your flashbacks in vietnamese xd

[dark heath]

This is something I'd like to know too... xD

(Probably my alcohol-free beer, don't mind me, I'm just vibing)

[quasi wedge]

sorry that sounds gross, but i'm not a fan of beer or alcohol xd

[dark heath]

~~It have peach and apple taste. ~~

Hm, I thought the comic of Talene and Fram is actually ongoing but now I can't find that part where it tells that. No. Please.

[vale grove]

In INKR Comics appears "ongoing"

Didn't ended yet then

[dark heath]

This is what I tried to find but I was a blind birb then, thank you.

❤️‍🔥

[vale grove]

[tepid ledge]

Is shemira and mehira the same person

[vale grove]

Ehhh, no

[quasi wedge]

wat

[dark heath]

Nein

[rustic copper]

why don't we know? Talena received the power of all obsidian finches, received the purest kind of flame, and even so could not do anything to him

[quasi wedge]

the finches didn't seem that strong to me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

feels like belinda level (lore wise)

and that's their "strong" ones, they probably have "normal" members in their clan that are just living their lives without fighting

that's the vibe i got anyway, didn't seem like a fighting clan, and even a fighting clan like the maulers aren't that strong compared to even the weakest celehypo

[rustic copper]

by the way. probably respen, as seyrus' older brother, explained to him what happened to khazard, and that's why he's fighting with gouldos. but probably he, like Khazard, will become a demon... although. gouldos is destroyed.

by the way, we still haven't been shown the remaining two elementals.

and yet-the mechanics of awakening gives a lot of important information about the alignment of the forces of the characters. and if one of the parties wakes up first, it means that before that she was losing. accordingly, from the pair *ortrus-zolrat *, zolrat will be the first to awaken.

[dark heath]

Well yes it either means that the Obsidian Finches are weak or that Framton is way more powerful. The problem is that this is really depends on who is compared to who.

But it's good to remember that Framton managed to defeat every existing source of flame. And we can easily assume that there were very-very strong opponents, which means that he simply having every type of fire he could reach in existance, and now the Solaris Flame.

Also; being ancient doesn't mean that that being is meant to be powerful in terms of fight, or destroying other beings. And only few Obsidian Finches were left anyways, so it probably had a reason for that. Some species simply destined to vanish as they can't keep up with stronger opponent with their way how they live and survive. However, I doubt that a single mortal like Belinda can be compared to Talene after she transformed.

Who, still wasn't a worthy opponent for Framton until her awakening, what she couldn't make without Astar, at all. So we can safely say that even against a very powerful Celestial, who had enough power to raise to the Celestials, was no match for Framton. It... doesn't mean that he have no match, at all. But this is notable.

And considering that Talene actually feels that her and Astar must train more and harder, means that even now that she is awakened, she fears Framton and what is probably coming, she expecting that what she experienced in the fight, is nearly not what Framton can do and she is questioning that in her current awakened state, she could defeat him again. It's tasty, let's be honest.

[crystal tapir]

The thing about Talene vs. Framton is, the stronger she gets, the stronger he can get.
Even if he isn't that powerful now, he can gather power through merely the act of fighting Talene.
And unlike her, he doesn't have pesky inconveniences like "collateral damage" and "friendly fire" and "civilian casualties" holding him back.

She probably knows this. She has every reason to be afraid. It's a total catch-22 for her.

Her only hope is probably to burn so bright that he'll be atomized faster than he can absorb it. Which might not even be possible.

[dark heath]

This was actually a perfect approaching of the topic and probably, the fact itself, @crystal tapir! He doesn't really bothered by pain or burn damage, he got used to it, he keep experienced these very time he absorbed any type of fire so his body perfectly adapted to the circumstances. He'll overgrow her eventually, again.

I'm actually very curious what comes next in the comic, and hopefully we'll get know more of him and Talene (because why not, I have a nice mood today).

[rustic copper]

by the way, have you figured out the timeline yet?

[dark heath]

Timeline of what/who exactly?

[rustic copper]

Of all. starting with the primardial fog, ending with Angelo's story to his daughter.

[dark heath]

Ah I see. I still didn't have enough time to read out every information to at least set up a possible "proper" timeline, but I won't forget about that.

I actually plan to have some sweet time with AFK arena lores soon, if everything goes well, and probably can start to draw again.

[rustic copper]

I think we need to structure all the information. how about creating a schema? although, it is probably necessary to do this when there is information from the artbook

[trail kite]

Does everybody know about superpower wiki

[clever ridge]

where can i get started in the lore of this game?

[coral zodiac]

You can start reading heroes lore, or unions! Or too the descriptions of the chapters

[dark heath]

Try to start reading the lore of heroes, dig up some comics, and stuffs like that. I'd start with the lore of heroes you find interesting and you feel like you can connect with them. It'll be a great kickstart.

[coral zodiac]

ye ye

[silk widget]

You can start off with any faction. Read some or all of the lores from one faction, then move on to another one. Then if you get bored you can start reading the origins of factions. Then there are also the union stories. After that just scout any text you can find

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HTBXUPaoTa3aMkYQCGZuNqdILsf2t8cvelyqm8pNT2Q/edit?usp=drivesdk

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LpGWPtPAYqbNsTkKmhG89VCcFn0--E-BucHm10_tVvA/edit?usp=drivesdk

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m4fWyhD4iZwfp1jhDqRdhNuA_T61Iwp0HbGI3SwH-pw/edit?usp=drivesdk

You can read all of the faction origin lores from the links above including the lightbearer and wilder one which have never been translated into eng. The text are auto translated for those teo lores, so it sometimes hard to read

[dark heath]

I didn't expect such a well detailed docs to see anywhere. Thanks too!

Where are these links originated from? Are there more?

[coral zodiac]

Oooo! The lore of Mauler yay!!
I could save the GB time ago but not mauler, I was waiting until it was complete

[silk widget]

2 of them are just compilation of all the lores published on the official fb page. And the other one is from some cn community forum hence it is only in cn. When i first started joining that channel, i was very intrigued by the lore, so i did some searching on the cn forums to find out why there are so many inconsistency between the eng and cn lores

[silk widget]

I think that is all as I've searched everywhere for untranslated stuff.

There is one other doc which contains mostly stuff within the game but are in cn with the purpose of spotting all the bad translation from the eng version

[coral zodiac]

The GB and Mauler lore got erased accidentally because FB notes got quit from FB.
Iirc they were trying to find another way to put it back, but I'm not sure

[crystal tapir]

I once made a suggestion to add a lore collection section to the game itself in this server, but I don't think it went through.

Like... that would be a perfect section to add to the Library, y'know?

[clever ridge]

[dark heath]

I agree!

One of the reasons why I really fell for AFK Arena was the lore and the characters. I personally prefer games where I have some characters or base world lore which I can feel myself connected, so it gives me more motivation to play forward.

[quiet tinsel]

I like worlds that i can selfinsert into 👀

Which afk does for me

[dark heath]

Absolutely

[silk widget]

The best thing about afk lore is that it isnt just there so that lilith can claim the game has sory. They actually put in a lot of effort creating an inmersive world and plan ahead all of the story. Morrow for example, he was shadowed in some place from when the game was released, but wasn't out in like 2 years later

And fuking peeps on fb and reddit would jump in the band wagon and accuse lilith of making up morrow's lore because he looks like hypo

[vale grove]

THANK YOU

[rustic copper]

this is not Lilith's prerogative. it's just that they, as game developers, and as Chinese, have already planned everything by the hour for 10 years ahead.

[dark heath]

It kinda reminds me of the rendom kiddos who keep skipping every story line related quests and not reading them in MMOs, then at the end of the main story line their only opinion: "That is bullsh..."

[trail kite]

Morrow and Scarlet's design have a story behind it
Don't skip the story

[rustic copper]

I want to picture with talene

[rustic copper]

Flora is stronger,than alna

[silk widget]

Just a reminder, today is the last day to get $5 off the artbook preorder.

[low geyser]

is Raine's name always spelled that way? a lot of ppl use Rayne (including myself)
is there variation across diff versions? are we all just dumb?

[earnest swallow]

https://tenor.com/view/die-deadchat-gif-23050743

[trail kite]

Does everyone know the superpower wiki

[lament meadow]

@neon vault get his ass

[neon vault]

[dark heath]

Yes.

It was always Raine. Don't really build on how people spelling names here. Lot of people misspelling names. Sometimes I even getting bamboozled and go to check the hero name just to figure out that I remember it well.

[coral zodiac]

And also, Rayne is Estrilda/Baden' family name too

[low geyser]

well I clearly remembered wrong

[dark heath]

Don't worry about that, so many heroes out there, it happens

[low geyser]

[dark heath]

[trail kite]

some are hard to spell

[quiet tinsel]

Some names have the weirdest spelling. See people mix morrow with marrow, raine with rain or rayne, myself I keep wanting to spell scarlet as scarlett for some reason

[low geyser]

I keep asking myself, is there a 2nd T?

[quiet tinsel]

in the game there isnt so i guess not?

but the name is usually spelled with two

so i keep getting confused

[trail kite]

no...
I remember I don't know how to write Fawkes name

[coral zodiac]

I sometimes write Scarlet like "Skarlet" because there is a character in MK with that spelling. And then I remember it's about AFK and not MK and I correct it 😂

[low geyser]

[silk widget]

Anal for Alna.

[dark heath]

I had a problem with that too

And I doubt I could spell it right if anybody would ask me to do suddenly

[vapid musk]

It is still hard for me to spell Antandra's name
Or it's Atandra or....

[rustic copper]

if the name of the game is changed, what options do you suggest for the new name?

[vivid surge]

Land of Esperia

[vivid surge]

Commissioned to draw an oc in the afk style 👀

Remember the phrase "Double Entendre". And just replace all the "e"s with "a"s.

Or split it into "Ant 🐜 And & Ra 🌞".

[low geyser]

somehow, my mind splits it as an-tan-dra

[low geyser]

has anyone tried to fight talene in voyage?

does she leave, causing you to fail?
does she angry, but join you anyway?

[dark heath]

No I didn't but honestly I wonder what would happen.

I should attack her actually, since I don't like her. Damn! I was too much focused on the loot.

Where are my twisted manners.

If I'd have to guess however, she'd just leave and not join.

Honestly I'd be pretty happy if Lilith would give us every conversation from the Voyages somehow. It usually gives us a better insight of characters' personality.

[low geyser]

agreed

[sturdy nova]

the upcoming voyagwe is between ||pippa and leonardo|| and it makes me excited to see such interactions, we don't have many canon ||dim-non dim or even dim with dim|| interactions iirc

[serene briar]

A lot of dimensionals have copyrights and such that would make giving them more than a loose "magic happened and now they're in Esperia" word

[civic geyser]

Well with Merlin and Leonardo who don't seem to have a copyright I do hope we can get more of them

Arthur has been present in a lot of events last year like the Summer thing where the heroes got stranded

[trail kite]

Merlin, Leonardo and Arthur are non crossover dim

[crystal tapir]

I just learned yesterday was National ||Squirrel|| Appreciation Day, so they missed that chance not releasing it then >_>

[crystal tapir]

Yeah, remember when Lilith got in trouble because they accidentally misunderstood the agreement and held two events themed around Ainz instead of just one?

And as a result that AbEx had to be cancelled prematurely?

[civic geyser]

dam, that happened?

[low geyser]

when did this happen? I distinctly recall there being 2 full length abexs centered around ainz/albedo

[boreal lichen]

Iirc the abex was about to be cancelled due to lilith not supposed to use them in abex? I might be wrong, its been so long alrd

[crystal tapir]

Their agreement was that he could be used in one event. That event was the Halloween VoW.

[boreal lichen]

Yeah i rmb that vow, since u need both of em for that specific chest

[crystal tapir]

Lilith mistakenly thought the Overlord-themed AbEx would be allowed as well, only to be informed that they were in fact mistaken.

[vapid musk]

Thank you

[trail kite]

@neon vault

Burn them

Good job

[neon vault]

That

Wasn’t me at all

[trail kite]

Oh

[trail kite]

Mf crying now

Just say he is older than his body

Dolly...
Just say he is an element and he is ageless

Don't make me abandoned my ship

Or she just say he is look like that due to his physical appearance

Well, technically, he is very old
Even older than Seirus

[low geyser]

well, they did it anyway
I wonder if they had to give the overlord ppl a pile of $, or if the lawyers got involved

[vapid musk]

But they did it?
They use same phrase for hypocelestials and graveborns

[quiet tinsel]

human khazard zo beautiful omggg

i wanna hold him...

[quiet tinsel]

it's okay people usually say i look 12 so don't mind the "looks 16" thing in your ship he could very well be a grandpa

[trail kite]

Imagine some kids call Respen as Grandpa

[vapid musk]

That could happen lol
Still "looks 16" is not "he is 16"

[quiet tinsel]

i would totall y call respen grandpa lmao

[trail kite]

I getting paranoid for that
Thank Dura he is grandpa

[rustic copper]

Seyrus is respens younger brother and youngest character in a game

[trail kite]

Respen are the oldie now

Seirus is oldie too

But Respen is more oldie than Seirus

[rustic copper]

Seirus appears after death of khazard. And after that,peggy already was a 10-11 y.o.

[deft violet]

If you claim something in the honourable offerings event you're partaking in theft because Rigby is handing out Dolly's stuff without her consent

[quiet tinsel]

Good

Also i wonder if with all this ice related content we can expect awakened khazard or respen sometime soon. Both would make sense lorewise so let's hope 👀

[trail kite]

Okay...so nobody know about powerlisting wiki for now

[rustic copper]

What wiki?

[quiet tinsel]

where did we get info to put ths in order? i don't recall anything like this but perhaps i missed something?

[lament meadow]

i like how seirus was only water from the waist down but khazard was mostly water when respen came along

so im thinking that like. for water elementals at least the closer they are to dying/being reborn as someone else the more parts of their body start turning to water, until eventually they just lose the ability to hold their form and disintegrate entirely into seafoam

maybe khazard was lured into gouldos' grasp not only bc he wanted to know what was going on in his damn ocean but bc he knew he was on the brink of death and was possibly even afraid to die, so he made a deal with the devil (so to speak) to become truly immortal

like imagine that khazard DID start out looking more like seirus and over time he just. noticed more and more of himself turning into water.

like i imagine it always starts with the hair like how someone aging starts getting gray hairs, except the individual hairs slowly, one by one, turn into super thin strands of animated water

and then, just like a persons skin starts getting more and more wrinkled, khazards skin starts becoming more and more translucent as his arms turn into water from the inside out, and then his torso does the same, which he only realizes is whats happening when he starts coughing up water

like by the time respen came around he was practically on borrowed time in the grand scheme of things

[quiet tinsel]

this is!!! so cool!!! as a concept!!!!

perhaps elementals just become their element as they pass away

and that could sorta mean that the next elemental to come inehrits their memories in a way]

[rustic copper]

the events of the current voyage of wonders describes the crisis of the water element caused by the desecration of the water elemental, which made the world cold. so the actions of the events take place during the betrayal of Hazard. Seyrus did not exist at that time, but Talena was already awakened.

[quiet tinsel]

ooooh, i somehow missed the water elemental part while reading it. thank you for clarifying!

[rustic copper]

it is strange to write this as a former position when it is a fact. the guardians of the elements appear from them and go into them. and they also know from birth everything that happens in their elements, since they actually stand at the top, second only to the gods and some demons.

[quiet tinsel]

The way i understood it is that they are born from their element knowing all about it, but it wasn't entirely clear whether or not they have the memories of their predecessors (although it could be possible considering that khazard knows the name of previous sea elemental) nor is it fully clear what happens to them when they pass. Unless I'm missing some lore here as well.

[rustic copper]

considering that Seyrus is clearly opposed to Gouldos after Hazard's death, they receive the memory of the past.

[quiet tinsel]

this was in some vow, right? remeber which one?

[rustic copper]

Uh. No. The battle against Gouldos was in the lore of the union of the Guardians of the abyss

[quiet tinsel]

ohhh that's why i remember it so vaguely

guess it's time to refresh my memory a bit

[crystal tapir]

The AFKA timeline confuses me. Namely, the fact that there is a timeline.

I always thought all the heroes existed at the same time.

At any rate, I'd rather not have an Awakened Charizard quite yet... since awakened heroes are already nigh-impossible to get.

Super Talene alone made me completely give up on trying to get any more celepogeans. Power Creep demands it.

[hidden helm]

hey guys, had a question who is the strongest hero or being lorewise?

besides the divinitys

[crystal tapir]

Of the four main factions? I maintain that it's Pippa.

The spells she copies are more powerful than the ones she copies them from, and she can learn them just by looking at them (according to her lore). This includes Arden, who pretty much taught all of the other Wilders.

If she canonically met Ainz, there would be trouble.

[hidden helm]

is there no limit to that?

[crystal tapir]

As far as I know, her only limit is her trouble controlling her power. There could be more limits, but it's never mentioned.

[trail kite]

https://powerlisting.fandom.com/wiki/Superpower_Wiki

[hidden helm]

there should be, if not thats broken

[crystal tapir]

I mean, there could be something. It's just not really talked about except for that brief mention.

[hidden helm]

I mean if there isn't, these types of abilities usually not raise questions if not put holes through plots

like something happenes

'why didnt pippa just copy it?'

[crystal tapir]

I assume she has to see it cast more than once, at least.

It doesn't specify, but the fact that in game she starts out weak and unreliable, but gets exponentially stronger as she ascends, probably hints at that.

[hidden helm]

well something like 'she has to be able to bear the magic or else it twist her soul' or something idk

[crystal tapir]

Of course, it could be that she just hasn't yet faced any experiences that have brought her to her limits yet. So there's no way she or anyone else could know.

She is the youngest character we know the age of, after all.

Heck, she probably doesn't even know how talented she is even now.

She does have a not-baseless reputation for being an inattentive fuckup and a walking disaster area, after all, which her peers and teachers have made her well aware of.

[low geyser]

I'll make a note to not underestimate the squirrel army next time

[rustic copper]

Otherwise gods,granith-most powerful character.

[silk widget]

Imo, oden is among the strongest if not the strongest between 4f. His english lore was butchered so much that his real strength wasn't even mentioned by anyone.

Oden is imbued with dark magic and necromancy alone is enough to make him one heck of a char

[crystal tapir]

From the looks of the new Dolly's Corner, the next awakened hero is Rowan.

[heavy bramble]

It's a Rowan skin, not awakened

[crystal tapir]

Maybe I'm just a cynic, then.

[heavy bramble]

Just fancy skin

[crystal tapir]

<(That's MY outfit!)

At any rate, I mistook the duck's silhouette for longer hair, which I assumed meant he was about to be aged up.

[heavy bramble]

[rustic copper]

Wow,sex

[silk widget]

@crystal tapir i don't mind an awaken rowan at all. He probably will turn into the biggest scammer in all of esperia lol

[random stratus]

Damn Rowan looks like he got bitches

[low geyser]

[rustic copper]

Оden, like Safia, has void magic.

[sturdy nova]

given how choatic she is, she'd nuke own teams XD

[sturdy nova]

i am guessing it's khazard, but unsure, awakened talene talked of uncontrolled water elemental, maybe it's khazard going bonkers, and here we are with new dolly's corner with respen and khazard

[sturdy nova]

and then pippa looks at him calling into dark void realm and proceeds to teleport random hypogeans into the void XD

[crystal tapir]

I still can't get over how the translation did her dirty in that department.
I mean, come on, her Ultimate is a realistic black hole! That's freaking cool! Not a "falling sun" that will come and wash away the rain.

[silk widget]

Lol we gotto find out who lilith hired to translate those early lores and give him/her a beating. The part where safiya's magic was from dark star realm was there from the beginning in cn lore but I didnt catch on to it and tell everyone in here until moraels lore was out. morael released is when I knew eng lore is not cannon as many have claimed it was and i have started pushing the notion that cn lore is canon ever since

[quiet tinsel]

I think Morrow would certainly be up there in power rankings. Not only does he have the op flames of aerina that could probably kill about 99% of the characters in the game that couldn't be killed otherwise, but it is implied that he has an army of hypogeans at his command, where Korgas alone seems to be one of the strong ones (given that he's recognised by the book, has a title and all that). Even if it's not sheer magical power that makes him strong, an organised army of hypogeans probably shouldn't be overlooked.

And he has the potential to capture the hypogeans we already know. Since we're speculating here, what if he got his hands on something like Zolrath? With Korgas he already has the power to manipulate and annihilate entire cities, and unlike hypogeans he's clearly not restraining himself with it. If he got his hands on mr. Time lord we could have an apocalyptic scenario coming up for all we know.

[rustic copper]

he wouldn't have made it. Zolrath is at the top among all the demons, second only to Annih. and Korgas is the target that Athalia is chasing.

there is a huge gap between Zolrath and other demons. He is a multiverse-level threat. morael is the closest to him, who is weaker-only at the level of several galaxies ±

[silk widget]

I doubt he will ever be able to touch a hair of Zolrath. If he has any intention to do so, zolrath could just alters the timeline and kill him before he is even born

[rustic copper]

I have an assumption that Gouldos is a pawn of zolrath. and we know from numerous passages what he is capable of.

[quiet tinsel]

Fair, but even then the possibility is still out there. I don't believe we know anything about Aerina, beyond the fact that she can burn souls, so it's hard to tell how much a threat he actually is - but he DOES have the potential to kill Zolrath for good if the circumstances were right, and it shouldn't be overlooked. Multiple bodies =/= multiple souls.

[rustic copper]

zolrath doesn't just have a lot of souls. they are literally manifestations of himself. for zolrath, universes are like dust, and he doesn't really care what happens in them.

[lament meadow]

where does it say that athalia is targeting korgas?

[rustic copper]

Art,when she attacks morrow

when do you think the successors of Zateus and Elo will be shown to us?

[quiet tinsel]

wouldn't burning those manifestations essentially mean burning his soul piece by piece though?

[crystal tapir]

(keeps reading "Morael" in these power level discussions as "Mirael")

[trail kite]

Afk heroes have some entry as "known user" in powerlisting wiki but not too many

[quiet tinsel]

Ngl same

[rustic copper]

No. For beings of these level,death of countless manifestations means no more,then drop in an ocean

[night oasis]

Are there any good websites to read the afk arena lore? I wanna get into the lore more

[rustic copper]

Game itself

[dark heath]

Unfortunately, probably not. Currently what you can do is dig your nose into the game, lores, infos, stories and see more.

[rustic copper]

If you Have 100$,you can buy artbook. I suppose,it will be a storehouse of a new helpful information

[candid root]

My take of Scarlet’s mother. 🦹‍♀️

[quiet tinsel]

this is such a good idea, really in line with scarlet herself

i want that hair

[tender moth]

I don’t keep up with lore, so don’t disgrace me but, why do we start fighting against our own men ingame?

ppl we should be fighting with

not against

[silk widget]

Absolutely stunning. Love your art as always

[silk widget]

Who are we though? Its not like you are using lb wilder and celestial factions exclusively.

[tender moth]

Fair enough but the game lore is just a bit confusing

[silk widget]

Ask in here if you have any question regarding lores.

[tender moth]

Can I ask you???

[silk widget]

Everyone will be happy to answer your question

[crystal tapir]

Quite a few people here think they're Hypogean doppelgängers.

The game doesn't give an explanation, but that's a theory we've come to here more than once.

[tender moth]

I see

Wish the lore made a little more sense ingame

And they made more than just one cutscene at the beginning before kicking u into like more than a year of gameplay.

[candid root]

IMO. It’s the same thing as why we can use Hypogean in our teams

This isn’t a tradition rpg where you are literally the “good guy” in the story

There are a lot of people who favors maulers and think themselves playing the story from the mauler’s point of view, from that. The LB are the enemy

From a game development perspective, a mobile game that is supposed to last “forever” it is impractical to use characters exclusively for enemies.

[dark heath]

Don't we actually fight against each other as human beings? Or any being fighting against their own one day or another?

I wouldn't handle this topic too harsh and strict. Fractions have their history, but and so characters too. But what we are doing as players, we are just using the characters for our own good. Same happens in other games, even outside the mobile world (like in LoL for example).

It'd pretty much limit the players if they'd be bounded by the lore. Who enjoying it, can stick to that, and even build their team around it. If somebody is more interested in building the best teams and being more effective, they are also free to do that.

For example, I am pretty much interested in the lore, more than the game. This is why I have heroes which are not fully S+ tier, but heroes whom I love. Framton, Mezoth, Zaphrael, Zikis etc. They were all expensive to get and build (Furnitore, Sign, Engrave), but since I feel connected to them, I focus on that.

[silk widget]

Meanwhile I've been playing the game for almost 3 years and dont have any of those heroes lmao

[dark heath]

Well getting any Hypo or Cele accidentaly up to Asc 1 will not happen any time soon, so yes... I can understand that. :'')

[silk widget]

Yep. I do have a few copies of some of those from purple stones but they are are pretty much useless with low ascension

[dark heath]

Yes they are. I actually should go for Haelus as I heard he is very OP and I even have 3 copy of him but then Framton happened, lol.

Basically, some type of hero can be useful on E+ too (Ezizh, the Twins for example) but sure, DMG dealer ones or tanks are shines only at higher rank. Mezoth was actually very-very tanky even around M+.

[crystal tapir]

Yeah, I'm the same way. It's why Vurk's such a mainstay for me even though Kren does his job but more.
Also why I picked up and ascended Thessssku right away without really paying attention to what he's capable of.
Furry crushes, man. They're strong things.

[random stratus]

I try to get and ascend the characters with the best jiggle physics

Really nice to look at

Any one know about powerlisting wiki:
https://powerlisting.fandom.com/wiki/Superpower_Wiki

[rustic copper]

One moment

[rustic copper]

here we see that the pirates are heading to some place, and stumble upon the fog.
on the map, this fog is located here. and despite the fact that he is listed under chapter 35, he is also in the sea between her and 34. 34 chapter, she is also Bonapei, a city destroyed by a creature with many tentacles that emerged from the abyss. of all the famous characters, there is only one-gouldos. on the map, again, we see that there are tentacles on both chapters. another important detail:the fog is maddening. but so is Gouldos. ships on chapter 35 disappear, as if someone is dragging them away. another detail is that gouldos is referred to many times as a "devourer", but mezot also has a similar status. however, if we look at the visualization of the ulta mesota, we will see tentacles. but, if you remember, before the ent mesota was different, less open, and the visualization of the ult was in the form of a normal swallowing. and this means that Lilith specifically changed it, bringing together Gouldos, mezot and Khazard. only Khazard is a victim of Gouldos, and Mesoth is his messenger.

[sturdy nova]

guys, perhaps it is happening, Edwin is gonna be here

[rustic copper]

No. I don't think so

Edwin is the Thoran's enemy.

And I suppose,it's a start for a new awakening event. Or it would be in February

[coral zodiac]

I think it could be Sepulcre

Or maybe Edwin too could be

[rustic copper]

Who?

[coral zodiac]

The one who controls Baden

He appeared in the The Silent Blade comic recently

[autumn pike]

I really hate lilith for delaying edwin that much. But that sulphure guy looks cool too 🙈

[coral zodiac]

Sepulcre has been since Baden got released lol iirc

But same

[autumn pike]

We need lore characters!

oh no he's hot

i hope this guy aint coming out soon i still have scarlet to ascend

if they could only stop releasing great heroes for 5 minutes--

can't we have a mauler break

[low geyser]

they released thesku not long ago

I think I'm in a worse position, since I just spent my L+ GB fodder :/

[quiet tinsel]

yeah it's a joke since maulers are my least favorite faction, designwise

[autumn pike]

@coral zodiac , i've checked the baden comic. It stops at chapter 9. No spuchler yet

[quiet tinsel]

so im more likely to skip a new mauler

[low geyser]

same, but for some reason, the game keeps giving me mauler fodder

[coral zodiac]

Chapter 8, at the end

[low geyser]

where are these comics posted again?

[coral zodiac]

They did too in Imgur but I'm not sure if they do anymore

Doesn't sound like Edwin at all in cn text.

[spice mulch]

Lmao

[silk widget]

sup. Havent seen u in a while

[spice mulch]

I quitted the game

[silk widget]

Thats sad. Many of My friends have left this game too

[vapid musk]

Can it be warden from origin of graveborns? He torture those souls who don't obey Thoran

[low geyser]

it's literally translated as dog, but its connotation is more like servant/minion/attack dog

dog is frequently used as an insult in chinese, and roughly equates to "bootlicker"

the beginning part is also horribly translated - "his story cannot be completed even if told over 3 days/nights"

(my literacy is crap, so take with grain of salt)

if it's another awakened char, I'm guessing grez

[silk widget]

I highly doubt there will be awakened hero in next patch. Lilith said they will release one in February or March, so I think awakened hero will be released toward the end of February

[low geyser]

I know even less than you do

I made a conjecture based on that translated chinese text

[vapid musk]

Sometimes I feel like a ghost, well

[peak swift]

Silas’s serum is just gamer fuel

[crystal tapir]

Well, you don't have to worry about me leaving anytime soon since it's not really the gameplay I play for.
As long as there's some cute durri ▓▓▓▓s to ▓▓▓▓, I'll stick around.

[sturdy nova]

yeah definetely not edwin

[thick thorn]

Hm, doesn't really explain how she ended up in Esperia
For those that don't know, in one of the myths she's associated with, she fell into a river of lava and burnt to a crisp

[sturdy nova]

good lord the lore is well written!!!

even though i agree with cynical that it doesn't explain how she ended up in esperia, it merely mentions that ||she lost her daughetr, and turned into baba yaga||

also i love how it is the reader in the story as the character

[crystal tapir]

Good grief, a lot of people are complaining about John Wick here in the Community thread.

"She's not old!"
"Melusina's a different person!"
"She's another anime swordfighter mage dimensional!"
"She's not Robocop!" (I wish I was kidding with that last one)

[crystal tapir]

In that case, I assume the same thing happened to her that probably happened to Da Vinci; Annih's been intercepting the dead to destabilize Esperia further again.

[coral zodiac]

I think they think that there is only one Baba Yaga, the Keanu Reeves one, but maybe they don't know that she exits in folclore

[crystal tapir]

No, they're complaining that she's not adhering to the folklore enough.

[coral zodiac]

OOOH

I see

Lol

Hmmm

Interesting

[lament meadow]

"shes another anime swordfighter"

bro imagine if they DID start adding anime swordfighters tho

[crystal tapir]

It would be unironically pretty cool if Marth ended up in the game, but I'm not exactly holding my breath.

But "x might be neat" is different from the "DO THIS NOW DEVELOPERS" the forums are doing.

[sturdy nova]

only thing keeping me sane about her "deceptive" looks

[thick thorn]

You will always have people be mad that their favorite character didn't get added
And to them I say, if you want to play a game that has a bunch of crossover characters in it, play another game, AFK Arena isn't that type of game

[silk widget]

Who is this Marth char?

[crystal tapir]

I was mainly joking.

[silk widget]

im also pretty happy that lilith only release 1 dim hero at a time

[crystal tapir]

Namely, about that the forums' demand for given dimensionals reminds me of the worst of the SSB fandom...

[silk widget]

Which popular franchise/series do you think lilith will collaborate with for a new dim hero?

[random stratus]

Batman in AFK Arena when

[low geyser]

you mean ukyo?

[low geyser]

yes, double dims were hell

now that we have auto lab, it's less bad

MHA or Demon Slayer characters are something that I could honestly see happening.

Even Genshin tbh. I think I saw something about Genshin wanting to do collabs with other games and stuff a while back anyways.

What about prison watcher?

[vale grove]

:o

True true

[vague sinew]

ainz appeared cause of zolrath he created portal to invite dimesionals, or since the anime ainz is from he is just in da game and afk arena is da game

[rustic copper]

no

[tough forge]

That's even worse than Ainz sitting on the Isekai Quartet button

Tho the reason why Ainz can't use his full moveset can be explained in the same way as Isekai Quartet

The Isekai Quartet world unbalances a lot of characters to put everyone on a level playing field, so Ainz can't use certain spells like Dark Young or Perfect Warrior due to the limitations of Esperia.

... Or something idk

[rustic copper]

guys an girls. Can you help me?

In PM,if you can

[random stratus]

With what?

[dark heath]

With what exactly?

[random stratus]

Ok this is late but hear me out

[coral zodiac]

@dark heath

It's not a lot but something is something I guess

[dark heath]

Oh, and he even fights with a hammer? I really like this Celestial Blacksmith idea a lot! I hope I can see more of him, and later maybe a full lore? I'd totally buy that.

[coral zodiac]

Yeah! And ty!
I had in mind a bit of his skillset movement. And I had a rough idea of his lore iirc... I should write it down some day lol

[dark heath]

Well yes, it is worth to sketch any ideas you have and get some inspiration. It can take time but worth to wait, same happens with my OC.

I have some base ideas and I might build the lore on it.

(I actually took parts of it from my real life / past)

[coral zodiac]

Ooo

I actually like to write down the things I came up for my OCS to not forget them

But I don't have usually time to do more developed things, like stories

[dark heath]

Patience!

You'll have in time.

I have the same problem with drawing Fram and/or my OC. Not enough proper time.

[vale grove]

I have to redraw Áedán, it has been his bday some days ago and I couldn't draw anything

[coral zodiac]

I think it would be better to ask that in #classic-questions

[crystal tapir]

I need to rebalance my own, edit actual sprites/animations for her, and make some of the characters in her backstory as well.

Right now, pretty much all I have of her is what I've posted before and a commission I can't post here involving her "encountering" Skreg and Vurk, which I'm still very happy with how that turned out.

[low geyser]

true, but I think they've since made an anime for it?

[crystal tapir]

Usually when people say "anime swordfighter" in this context, they mean "in the stereotypically bishōnen art style". The only quote unquote "anime swordfighter" that's actually been in an anime is Marth himself, and that was a two-episode OVA from 1993. Everyone else -- Roy, Chrom, Byleth, Sora, and all the rest -- have only appeared in games or (in Cloud/Sephiroth's case) 3D films.

[low geyser]

oh i c

Marth had a more European feel to his design

by anime, I was thinking literal anime/more japanese design - eg ukyo/atomic samurai in OPM

my bad

[crystal tapir]

If Ukyo/Nako were in SSB, though, then yes, they'd definitely be counted as one.

Only thing that stops Joker from being in the category is the fact that he uses a dagger, not a real sword.

[crystal tapir]

Gosh, can that silly squirrel GET any more adorkable?

[low geyser]

I really want to pet that fluffy tail

[sturdy nova]

she even shared it with rowan for his hair

[low geyser]

[distant tiger]

I'm glad to see Pippa is getting some love
I love how in the VOW she went from calling Da Vinci 'old fossil' to saying 'I like you gramps'

[quiet tinsel]

Yes Pippa is absolutely sweet

Hope we get to see some more of her

[crystal tapir]

I want to draw her making cute squirrel noises.
https://youtu.be/XZDieNbKEKg

[distant tiger]

Pippa but irl

[crystal tapir]

That VoW makes me wonder what she'd think if she ever learned she made friends with a famous artist.

Before I tried sketching her looking at one of his works in a museum when she's older, but it didn't turn out like I'd hoped.

I'm not good at drawing characters from behind.

[distant tiger]

Awwwwwwwwwww...
That's actually a really cute and sweet thought
must be some very happy memories

Is the any gods,who was birth after Honas,but before Dura and Annih?

[rustic copper]

Somewho,older then brother and sister.

[dark heath]

Is there any info about what Framton's and Ziki's message in the inn when you get gifts from them? I have both Ascended but hard to catch anyone who could pay attention to these messages?

[trail kite]

I got Framton one

[dark heath]

Oh, thank you. 💜

[dark heath]

So generous, haha.

[silk widget]

Thanks a bunch for keeping us up with whale inn's dialogue

[trail kite]

So.. anymore?

[dark heath]

I wonder if Ascended Fram's dialog will be different but I want to find it out fast as well. I'd probably rush his ascension too.

[dark heath]

Only Zikis left, I have no more crush left. I unfortunately can't see my own heroes' messages. But it'd be fun to getting random gifts from your own heroes.

Like, imagine an option which'd make you possible to select a favorite heroe, and during the weeks, they would give you randomly selected gifts (gems, dust, exp etc.) with some message which fits to the character.

[trail kite]

So
The only one left was....
Zikis, Scarlet, Awakened Talene, Astar

[crystal tapir]

Not to mention some of the dialogue would make more sense. Complaining about/commenting on their own rooms when they're not in their own hotels...

[dark heath]

Exactly. There could be even more way to 'undress' the lore in different form of contents and hopefully, we'll get the chance. Like, Lilith did a great job with lores and personalities, the world and characters are really lovely, and everyone can find at least one hero who is close to their heart, let them closer.

[crystal tapir]

Trying to come up with a Hypo OC right now, with a focus on copying enemy heroes. (I was hoping something like this would be revealed during the summer event, and I was disappointed to learn the imposter was just Mehira.)

[vale grove]

I checked Zikis, I knew some friend had him ascend, but he didn't had a present

[lament meadow]

thats such a good detail holy shit

[sturdy nova]

also in comments people talk about the shampoo sticking if it was raku,other gbs, hot/spicy with astar, allergy triggering too

i am a lore guy so i sent solise and obviously it worked perfectly

[lament meadow]

fuck now i wish i sent mezoth

[tight ermine]

i do love that da vinci is canonically an isekai protagonist in afk arena

[tight ermine]

I picked wu kong to do the shampoo and it said the shampoo is "quite pungent" and rowan says there's "something wrong with him(Rowan) that he can't put a finger on"

wukong confirmed smely boi

[acoustic thistle]

excuse me

they have different messages depending on which hero you picked on that shampoo quest 👀

[trail kite]

final letter...

[pine gyro]

The next hero according to dolly is "in league with the fallen king" so it must be connected with thoran? Maybe we're getting Edwin?

[vale grove]

Thank you for posting this

[silk widget]

Its been talked about before. New hero is not edwin

[rustic copper]

Prison watcher,mb

It will be a warrior

Or,it'll be connected to event of a new awakening. I suppose with wu kong

[rigid locust]

New Gb will be connected to tresnor or something maybe

[timber tide]

Thali triggered allergy

[timber tide]

Same with Thali

[trail kite]

new Silent Blade chap, chap 11 in CN ver

look at them

https://manga.bilibili.com/mc30814/687196?from=manga_detail

but that will be sad for some reason

[vale grove]

I love them so much...

[trail kite]

i wish i could see them together again in game

[trail kite]

i will update more about the comic and...

cry

[quiet tinsel]

gimme english version already dammit

[trail kite]

I still waiting for the English ver

[dark heath]

Nothing new of the Talene comic, right? I just dreamed about the continue today.

[vale grove]

I think that they will do again a 3 chapter update

I don't remember when last chap of Talene's has been...

Oh 7 of January

Maybe if they don't update it will have some relation with the next hypo

Maybe 👀

[quiet tinsel]

why the bulk updates....

must they take the netflix approach when it comes to releasing stuff? everyone know releasing it over time is much better for marketing but they do it anyway...

[rustic copper]

Who drop screans with oath-can you make screans on different languages?

[lapis stag]

they release bonus mini comics, but I read it in russian

[dark heath]

Oh, sweet. I don't understand russian but I actually have a program which can help me to translate the text on the picture itself. This is the two mini-comic only? If you have a link feel free to send it

I just hope we'll get the next part of the comic too, or more small comics like this, but then, with Fram, obviously.

[lapis stag]

same text

[trail kite]

So cute

[silk widget]

Just saw the translation error channel. I dont know if we can report all of the bogus lore translations that we have found over there.

[trail kite]

Yes...some lore need to be retranslated

[random stratus]

Aren’t there certain heroes that almost have completely different lore depending on the language you read it in lol

[silk widget]

Yeah, there are a few that are different in cn va eng but there are also a shit tons of mistranslation from cn lore into eng that have caused inconsistencies in the eng ver.

[random stratus]

I’ve noticed some in Oden’s lore I think it was

[silk widget]

Yup, i've talked about his lore in here a lot in here. His lore in eng ver is the shittiest translation compared to other

[random stratus]

Yooo how many differences are there lol

In total

[silk widget]

What are you referring to? Lore difference or the bad translations that caused inconsistency?

[random stratus]

Both

I believe the English version is a lot shorter yeah?

What got cut?

And the bad translations would be nice to know too

[silk widget]

So for lore difference in cn vs eng, lores of lucius, santrana, antandra, numisu, fer, baden.

As for the bad translation, you have to be in this channel for the past 2 years to see all of the reports I and a few others have posted lol.

[silk widget]

From what i understand, what caused some of the heroes to have different lores is because the eng version did not update their lores to be concurrent with the cn version. For example, there are 2 different versions of lucius's lore in cn, one could be found on the web and one found in the game. And Lucius lore in eng is exactly the same as the cn version that is found on the web.

[random stratus]

Interesting

[crystal tapir]

I reported the name errors with Petra Peggy and Vark Walker, but I feel like we're going to have to make absolutely sure the content errors are firmly accounted for before we start submitting those.

[coral zodiac]

I can't remember now any but if I search I will found a lot lol

Also, Haelus Inn quote

I'm not sure if it was shared before

[rustic copper]

The awakened Wukong will be called "equal to heaven".

Who have full map of the world?

[quiet tinsel]

starting a petition to rename morrow to heimdal like in cn

[rustic copper]

Who has a last version?

In high quality

[dark heath]

Thanks 💜 🔥

[flat sand]

Hello

[crystal tapir]

I'm nervous about submitting any content omissions to the translation errors channel. I feel like I might be about to open up Pandora's Box.

[crystal tapir]

I bit the bullet and asked if they were looking for discrepancies of that sort. Oh boy...

[lament meadow]

taking one for the team king

[crystal tapir]

These may be intentional for brevity. English often takes a lot more stored data to communicate less info than Chinese can, and they may have hit field limits.
You're welcome to mention them, but I'm unsure of they'd be actioned.
I'll ask though just in case
—Scragly

[gilded pumice]

Tis indeed me

[crystal tapir]

Hi!

@silk widget Ball's in your court now. You know a lot more about the pre-2020 translation differences than I do.

(Though admittedly I brought up the specific examples I did because I wanted to make sure that ol' Savagehorn didn't get the short end of the stick again when Dolly's Corner got to our little not-quite-a-rat-man. =p)

[vale grove]

Yeha same, I posted something already, but I remember that there where more but not where

[crystal tapir]

"The necromancer had returned from the veil of death, now as a spectral liquor"

[vale grove]

TSGHOSVKCKAVOJA EXACTLY YFAICHISCOJ

[rustic copper]

In what style would be the songs to awakened heroes(name any 7-10)

[silk widget]

I will post all of the translation errors which have caused a significant change to the lore later today, and perhaps someone in here can compile and report em to that channel

[gilded pumice]

any reason why you don't wish to post it yourself?

[silk widget]

Nope. I thought it's better to have just one person doing all of the reports as it'll be easier in case mod/admin want to ask for more info.

[gilded pumice]

It's not easier or harder. It will be rare to ask for followup info since it would be forwarded to devs or support as-is most of the time, just as #bug-reports is handled.

But if we ever do, it'll be as a simple mentioned reply to the message

It's recommended though to post each issue as separate messages

Not as a massive grouping

[silk widget]

Cool. I will try to post and collect all of the translation errors in here first

I hope lilith will listen and fix these bogus translation for lore nerds like us

[gilded pumice]

just post them as you find them

like i said, it's best if they're posted individually anyway

[gilded pumice]

it's certainly something we're hoping will result 👌

[rigid locust]

Wtf is melusina's lore

I think she violated me in her lore

[quiet tinsel]

haha flora taller than me

also athalia is so smol, i imagined her being taller

[trail kite]

I'm taller than Flora....about 2cm

165cm irl

[rustic copper]

I'm taller than talene and shorter then monkey king

[trail kite]

That would be 5'5 for me

[rustic copper]

Спасибо

[rustic copper]

Right locations is not exists in material world

[sand canopy]

If you read chapter 42, you can understand that the border between the world of dreams and reality has collapsed.
The continent itself does not exist in reality. But applicants go there with physical bodies.

Something like the spirit world in the Legend of Kor: you can go through the portal at the poles, or you can get through meditation

[rigid locust]

I'm surprised this game has lore

[coral zodiac]

Even the twins are taller than me akdmsmdms

[rigid locust]

Alna should be taller than zaph

Alna is a giantess fr

[barren haven]

I think she is definitely taller

It's just that she's got a slouch

[distant tiger]

Everyone is so tall

[trail kite]

Yeah

They're so tall...

I'm feel so short

Taller than Flora 2cm

Short af although being 20

[distant tiger]

I'm shorter than Flora
Taller than Elijah tho

Zaphrael is so big

[trail kite]

God are so big

[rustic copper]

I thought Alna had a raincoat. and this is hair.

[crystal tapir]

Flora trying to stand upright is cursed.

[quiet tinsel]

ok lmao you're somehow even more of a dwarf than i am

[quiet tinsel]

i think it's both

[coral zodiac]

I'm a pocket sized dwarf

[rustic copper]

My 181-

[north anchor]

Wait this game has lore-

(jk I know it does)

[silk widget]

No, this game doesn't have lore. We are all just bullshitting and pretending like it does have lore in here

[north anchor]

[coral zodiac]

It's all headcanons and stories in our heads (/I)

[dark heath]

I'm almost as tall as Talene. 175cm. sniff

[boreal lichen]

Im just slightly shorter than wukong kek

[dark heath]

I wonder how tall Mezoth and Framton is.

Mezoth seemed to be very-very big boi.

[coral zodiac]

Mezoth is 215 cms tall

[vale grove]

btw some heights changed

since the Dolly's corner release

Baden's and Thane too changed iirc

Ah no Thane's not

Baden is 182 cm tall

[lament meadow]

and ofc i will never be satisfied with this answer bc if you watch that first trailer hes like. 8 feet tall at LEAST

i like to think hes as tall as lady dimetrescu (9'6") but thats just me being extra

[coral zodiac]

Then we see Minizoth and that's the height of Minizoth lol

But like, if Ezizh can change his height depending if he is in normal form of Dream realm height, Mez too

[lament meadow]

YEAH EXACTLY

[quiet tinsel]

call me rowan i guess because im a red head dwarf

also wow pippa is... much taller than imagined tbh

[vale grove]

[trail kite]

Framton love arsonist

Also Astar want to be like Talene

[lament meadow]

AAAAAA the second one is so cute

bless tamtam

[quiet tinsel]

can one of the russian friends translate please 🥺

[rustic copper]

First-professional flame critic. Left to right up to down:

thank you

Estrilda grow up so fast

[vale grove]

Thank you!

[rustic copper]

can you do the same thing, only in Russian?

[vale grove]

I don't know why I relate Davy Jones' song with Hodgkin

Not sure why but

idk how to explain it

There a version Man on the internet that's just

[boreal lichen]

You mean the chapter? Im not sure if i can

I dont even know which is russian tbh

[vapid musk]

Here, my comrade

[boreal lichen]

@rustic copper

@vapid musk

[vapid musk]

Thank you

[rustic copper]

Thank you

[stable wyvern]

Wait lol

Afk Arena have Arabic language?

NICE

[dark heath]

God bless I didn't miss this one

My timing is supreme

🔥 💜

[low geyser]

"junior leadership role" + "commanding a regiment" lol

at least in the US, regimetns are led by colonels or something - 1 step below generals

[crystal tapir]

Well, that VoW was... underwhelming. I was hoping Vurk and Kren would have more dialog with each other than just the intro.

[sturdy nova]

what else could we expect, they were on a 'break'

chinese new year that is

[trail kite]

Seriously..That was chap 12

This is The real chap 11 of the silent blade

Imagine how cute he was

Chap 12 of the silent blade

just listening to some sad music and read This comic

Chap 12: https://manga.bilibili.com/mc30814/687939?from=manga_detail

Chap 11: https://manga.bilibili.com/mc30814/687196?from=manga_detail

[quiet tinsel]

Does anyone have Khazard's inn quote?

[autumn pike]

Ooo which one ??? ( the music box version with rain is one of my favs)

[rustic copper]

What do you think,when we will see new event to awakened hero.

And who it wuould be?

[rustic copper]

100% of power

99,99999999999999% of power

[vale grove]

Tbh a lot of them! I think I heard the one you say recently and I love it!

I like the vibes this song has

[quiet tinsel]

It would probably be as soon as possible, so 3 months from talene. they seem to be setting up khazard, although estrilda would be intersting to see as well.

[crystal tapir]

And here I am wondering more when we'll reach the tipping point that Awakeneds will be release one after another.

[autumn pike]

I usually have a 10 hours version of it running in the background while i am working, davy jones deserves his own movie tbh😁

[tough forge]

Why the hell is Morrow's actual name Heimdallr again?

[coral zodiac]

Mistranslation

Iirc

[quiet tinsel]

Cuz it doesn't sound english enough so they need to translate it so english audience doesn't get confused with the very hard original name

Also does anyone have an availble list/screen collection of hero inn quotes? I'm trying to update the wiki page with a complete list (or as close to it as i can)

[slim ore]

Wait, Morrows name is actually Heimdallr?

[quiet tinsel]

it is in chinese lore

[slim ore]

Heimdallr, as in the aesir Heimdallr

Interesting

[quiet tinsel]

yeah and it seems really fitting all things considered

[slim ore]

Really?

[quiet tinsel]

heimdallr is in norse mythology called the watchman of gods

[slim ore]

Heimdallr if I'm not mistaken is

That

Yeah

[quiet tinsel]

yeah also called the pale god

[slim ore]

I'm not super familiar with Morrows lore but I feel that Odin would be a better fit no?

Ignoring the fact Oden exidts

[quiet tinsel]

how so? odin was the creator of a world, which hardly plays with morrow's themes

unless i'm missing something

[slim ore]

Heimdallr sounds the horn to alert the gods to the begining of ragnarok

Odin has the ravens, and is a God of death, he holds wisdom of ages and has sight

[quiet tinsel]

Well i mean - perhaps that's what oden refers to? After all he was there when SSOTC was first created

while Morrow only joined them recently

[slim ore]

Wait Oden is with the crows?

[quiet tinsel]

yes it's been sonfirmed in some community post

[slim ore]

Ugh, I need to keep up with lore

Interesting

[quiet tinsel]

So it's implied that because of hius death SSOTC was founded, and i would imagine he's with them

since he was mentioned in the |SSOTC post

[slim ore]

I'm still not sure Heimdallr fits the theme of Morrow best, but I'm very likely mistaken as I'm not as well informed of morrows lpre

[quiet tinsel]

i would have to read in more into the lore to tell for sure because i don't wanna be drawing comparisons while misunderstanding the original god

[slim ore]

Ye

[quiet tinsel]

but i would imagine morrow in a way illuminated the way for dark mages, as he was the one who figured out how to control hypogeans

and also is the one able to permakill them with his fire

[slim ore]

Heimdallr is known for being the one who sounds his horn for ragnarok, and killing and dieing to Loki in the final battle

Ironically Loki fits Morrow better, in my mind at least, given the story of Bauldr and the mistletoe

But that's just my opinion

[quiet tinsel]

morrow will get killed by hypos one day, confirmed

[slim ore]

I mean, I wouldn't be shocked lol

Buuut to be fair, we are comparing norse gods to video game characters that share little with them except name

And Heimdallr is a pretty sick name

[quiet tinsel]

aight i'm gonna educate myself some more and come back to this because some things seem somewhat similar betweenthe two, but at the same time maybe they just named him that becauseheimdallr was described as a pale god and morrow has white hair lol

[slim ore]

Shame they decided to name him "Morrow" in English

[slim ore]

Possible lol

[quiet tinsel]

yeah i wonder what they meant by that

like hope or something?

idk

[slim ore]

No clue

[quiet tinsel]

maybe because he's a dark magic prodigr leading humanity to a brighter toMorrow....

lmao

[slim ore]

XD

Or it might be a play on Sorrow

[quiet tinsel]

maybe they didn't wanna cause controversy or upset since english verson is the one that nordic people will normsally get... but i don't know

eh Morrow is an old-english way of saying tomorrow so not likely

unless they somehow didn't know that

[slim ore]

Idk

[quiet tinsel]

or a play at Borrow since he borrows powers from hypos....

[slim ore]

But given the amount of English speaking people who already twist the hell out of norse culture I litterally doubt anyone would care

[quiet tinsel]

i imagine being norse and seeing people who only know the mythology from avengers must be a similar feeling to being polish and seeing people who only know polish mythology from the witcher games lol

but well, it's better than noone knowing anything about it i guess

[quiet tinsel]

and i can see the american twitter crowd crying out about how that's a cultural appropriation

[slim ore]

Twitter is litterally the dumbest thing since building walls at country borders to stop invasions

Didn't stop the huns, didn't stop the Germans, it never works and I don't know why people have done it as many times as they have

[quiet tinsel]

i agree, people are way oversensitive there, to the point where if you're not a member of x culture, you cannot make ANYTHING with it, unless it's 100% perfect and accurate and noncontroversial because they will witch hunt you 'till the end of days
they don't want other people to engage with their cultures so badly it's hilarious

anyway we can move to #545919777907015684 with this

[low geyser]

in ww2, the french wall did exactly what it was designed to do
walls were never intended to stop invasions - they're used to delay and buy time

[low geyser]

morrow doesn't sound very (modern) Eng either...

[rustic copper]

Today or tomorrow should be new dolly's corner

[quiet tinsel]

i hope it's about the ssotc 🥺

i want more morrow lore please

[vapid musk]

As I said once, we have a new character from Treznor lore and Graveborn origin
I knew it was warden

[quiet tinsel]

It's the guy from Mortas' story isn't it?

[vapid musk]

Yes, I guess? I think we will find it soon

[quiet tinsel]

i'm excited
i wish we got an event with those two but it would probably be too much to ask

[cunning lintel]

Do you guys know what's the in-game explanation of having Hypogeans on your side?
