Bloodborne Prequel - A Shadow Over Yarnham

[LHG100]

@Wernher Fam, we gotta figure out what the rest of the world is like. How the Great Ones see humanity. Y'know, you can only really find Amygdala's for example around places of worship, at least in big groups IIRC. I always thought they were listening to our prayers. Actually, reminds me, are we going to save dudes and help them find safe places? In addition, will we have a level up waifu like the doll? Will we see the creation of the Doll?

I have so many questions.

DAS A LOADA QUESTIONS

How did Maria enter the hunter's nightmare? Personally, I think she killed herself for some reason. Also, why does she have a picture frame next to her chair in the boss room? Who is it? Is her goblet full of wine or is that blood? She's related to Cainhurst somehow, so I'm guessing it's blood but y'know. Totally unrelated, but why the fuck are there giant ass pigs everywhere? Where did they keep all the (hopefully) not-so-big pigs that turned into big pigs? Why exactly is Hemwick full of crazy old ladies and why do they make Boner Dust? Who thought up the Boner-Dust? I wanna say Izzy because with the beast-blood-pellets that's about up their alley.

Where's the 'real' Fishing Hamlet and why is Kos, or some say Kosm, dead? Who made up Visceral attacks? Why are Visceral-attack related Caryll Runes much more effective against the Orphan of Kos? They didn't patch it so it can't be a bug. He's basically an angry fetus (Therefore he has an umbilical chord, look at his model really close), and you rip out the stomach area during a Visceral, is that related? Did Gehrman have to cheese the Orphan with parries and Visceral Attacks like a fucking skrub? Is that how the Non-Arianna three-thirds of an umbilical chords happened? Who is Mergo, and is his Wet Nurse another Great-One so the boss fight is against TWO of them, or is the wet-nurse something else? If it is something else, is it a 'parody' of Queen Yharnam? If it's a Great One, is it the one that impregnated Queen Yharnam or convinced another to impregnate her (more likely because a wet nurse isn't usually related to the infant they're taking care of) ?

Is there a reason that the Orphan of Kos' weapon sort of has a similar shape and metallic edge of the one-handed version of the Burial blade, Gehrman's weapon? Are the Orphan of Kos and Gehrman related? Is the 'dream' version of the Orphan of Kos Gehrman's 'avatar' in the Hunter's Nightmare? If it is, why is it such a horrible abomination and not more like Gehrman? Why is the Afflicted Beggar able to sort of 'control' his beastliness, if maybe temporarily? Are there 'smart beasts'? Did Ludwig turn into a 'smart-beast', since he regains a bit of his humanity when we fight him apparently? Ludwig's beast form is really horse-like, did he ride a horse-around? Are the 'sprites' he's seeing really the Messengers? What are the Messengers? Will we be seeing them around?

That's not even half of them! Anyway, yeah, that's the stuff I want to know about off the top of my head.

Edit: Oh, who's Caryll in this canon? Will we be seeing them and the creation of Caryll Runes? I hope so, that'd be neato.

Edit 2: Also, why is the Moon Presence not ever directly referred to as a great one? Is it actually a great one, or is it something else? Is it like the

HUEG SPOILER

Idea of Evil from Berserk?

With its ribcages and scourge-beast like movements, is it closer to humanity then the other Great Ones? With the third 'you're a squid now, you're a kid now' ending, can just anybody turn into a great one if they eat enough of a great one? Does it have to be great-ones' umbilical chords or can we just eat their hearts or something?

[Wernher]

@LHG100 I am reading all of this and plan ways to include what wasn't already included in the plot. That endless night will be long gentlemen and I plan on many people finding many answers. If one shall survive with a complete picture is another thing but fret not.

Don't hesitate to send more, I don't guarantee I'll put them all in, but there's always a chance.



Also, don't expect be being super explicit either.

[LHG100]

I can't wait for some glorious Insight.

Oh hey, what about blood echoes?

Edit: Will we be seeing Rom's ascension? Are they a 'kin of the cosmos' or a proper great-one in this canon? Since Kos, or some say Kosm, doesn't have any eyes, is she like a really determined go-getter girl who's trying to help out humanity with these 'weird orb things they want they call eyes' and she has no idea what she's doing, but GREAT-ONES-DAMNIT they'll get what they want?

[ClocktowerEchos]

@LHG100We have to extract it after every fight with a giant syringe to give to the blood god

[Wernher]

@LHG100 If only you knew.



ALSO: Auditions for the role of Vicar Laurence are open, by which I mean I can't find a proper look for that smart but also important looking guy in his 40s.

GOOD BLOOD FOR THE GOOD BLOOD GOD.

MAY THE GOOD BLOOD GUIDE YOUR WAY! Something, Something, blargh.

Actually, what about Oedon? The formless god of blood? And the mensis dudes? Is the brain of mensis a thing yet?

Edit: OH YOU NINJA FUCKER

@WernherFantastic, saved for later top-quality shitposting. yuo a reel mvp

[Ezmeralda]

@Wernher Oh, for sure. I didn't mean make her as strong as a Hunter, only enough to defend herself adequetely against the weakest of enemies skill wise. Perhaps I misspoke saying trick weapon. It's not exactly what I was thinking of as more of just a tool she could use to make more practical use of her healing abilities. Mid fight I don't think "Here, have some blood." is going to be very effective.

Perhaps a staff that is attached to her like an IV that she could use to channel her blood into more of an energy form instead of a liquid so it could travel a little distance and be a little more practical for healing purposes. Perhaps it could aslo have offensive applications? Also, I suppose having a little Arcane abilities would be too much to ask for? I just don't want to be a complete deadweight. lol

[LHG100]

Well tbh @Ezmeralda I could never see Arianna not being deadweight in a fight.

[Ezmeralda]

Well, yeah, but she isn't Arianna. xP

[LHG100]

You did describe her at first being an 'Arianna-ish' character :p

I can see your points on wanting a sort of 'combat medicy' PC tho, but, I can't really think of a way to make that 'work' in a bloodborne universe without breaking a few things. That's just me though.

[Ezmeralda]

The key part was the 'ish'.

Arianna was an NPC that you could visit so it didn't really matter that she couldn't fight. This however is an RP in which I'll probably be part of a group and just passing out vials of her blood doesn't seem like a big contribution. lol

[LHG100]

Lel, you know I was just being a 'commander contrarian', right?
