[P] The Forerunner

The Forerunner
Discussion on the Forerunner, the Creators, the Builders; those who existed before the Dwallow, whose disappearance is a mystery but whose remains is a way of life.

I came across this image whilst browsing games and thought it'd be amazing if there were a couple of cities that have fallen into disarray, would provide excellent scenary and a different style of location for training.

Dark's "The Mouths of the Creators" refine clouds and transport the water via aqueducts. But yeah, discussion. Grin

EDIT : sry the text wasn't there when I posted it ;D

I was thinking Portal 2 scenario, when you mentioned the Forerunners Tongue

(Check out the trailer Smile

)

EDIT: I remembered it differently, nevermind.
EDITEDIT: Portal 2 does actually look quite nice, maybe a 'little' less technological Tongue

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 4:25 am

Portal 2 is similar, I guess. 'cept that it's indoors, and it's rebuilding itself (which, may I add, looks shweet!). Pleased

I support the ancient structure thing, it seems to be a really awesome idea.

Is these structures like futurish or "Atlantean" as seen from StarGate-Series..

you know like, a godpeople who created the pumpstructure that gave the barrensland forest and living nature.. then they Ascended and they left the building left in Gielinor.

Now we have founded it.. or.. idk ;D

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 5:03 am

It's unknown why the Forerunner left, but I'm not keen on the idea that they ascended. Wink

by **Zectiox** Tue Nov 16, 2010 5:06 am

somehow they left.. Tongue

or were lost.

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 6:55 am

I think the same reason they disappeared should be an impending questline, it's due to happen again or something like that. Tongue

by **Zectiox** Tue Nov 16, 2010 7:23 am

in the beginning its just a legend, but the legends says it will happens again. Something or someone will return and then something happens..

a good questline for future design.

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:01 am

Absolutely! Tongue

by **Duskcurse** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:03 am

Who has seen stargate apart from me and Zect?

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:11 am

Nope.

by **Duskcurse** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:12 am

See it it's a great serie

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:20 am

There's a lot of episodes though ain't there?

by **Duskcurse** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:24 am

Yep, in fact there are 3 seasons Grin

by **Zectiox** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:30 am

stargate SG-1 : 10 seasons
Stargate Atlantis: 5 seasons
Stargate Universe: 2+ seasons

incl. 2-4 movies or so. Ive seen them all.. have them all ;D Wednesday comes a new episode of Stargate Universe out.. *.* still stargate SG-1 were to ultimate then Atl. but Universe are getting interested Tongue

so there is not just 3 seasons Tongue

its about 17 seasons.. Tongue

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:35 am

Anyway, on topic! Make a thread in Tastes if you wanna talk about it. Wink

by **Zectiox** Tue Nov 16, 2010 8:40 am

sry boss.. just made that for fun ;D... the forerunners.. hmm... they got the ancient device built.. some thousands of years ago.. in the beginning..

then there was nothing left.. but the device.. then the dwallows came to life and settled down around the lake of Barrenlands, and short after the Morguls from the walley of Morgù-Ka and settled down around the mountains of Morgù-Ka ( Win

).

always a suggestion.. just imaging the history of this Tongue

by **The Empty Lord** Tue Nov 16, 2010 1:54 pm

You've said "walley" twice now (I always overlook the first time in case it's a genuine typo); it's spelt "valley". Tongue

Maybe we shouldn't try and come up with a reason as to how species got there, and I think it should just be accepted they are. It gets too complicated; since there probably isn't enough time for them to have evolved, but we don't really want to create another Guthix. Leaving it ambiguous avoids this. Wink

by **Zectiox** Wed Nov 17, 2010 7:40 am

I did?... well I think I wrote that comment on my samsung galaxy.. mixing up with W and V.. Tongue

anyway, you got the point Tongue

oh well.. okey. just a thought of idea Tongue

by **Duskcurse** Wed Nov 17, 2010 7:48 am

Hey Zectiox I coudn't stop to notice your signature and I tell you I too am a massive fan of the lord of the rings So Much Win

by **Zectiox** Wed Nov 17, 2010 8:33 am

yea I like them but that for another thread..

The Forerunners.. any names of these people?

Dogard
Janush
Dunciart
Arìdrim
Calecharan
Corud Herin
Dolnen
Luichalen
Cú-Hael
Arthian
Dúrthent
Prestamith
Lothvaethor
Sakasen
Clutai Z'mor
Calalith
Seimirith
Segich
Junius
Prochoros
Zena Diokles
Aaron Kyros
Calana Dejin

idk, had the mood for create some randomly names Tongue

one more thing.. the language? what deos the Forerunners speak, ofc it would be something ancient and unspoken for thousands of years. maybe the device have some.. ancient words on it, that really noone know what it is now...

;D So Much Win

by **The Empty Lord** Wed Nov 17, 2010 8:36 am

I reckon their language would be the same as dwallish, purely because the dwallows would have adopted it. So Ancient Dwallish? Since language does evolve over time. For all intensive purposes, it's English. Tongue

Also, the forerunner are long extinct (or thought extinct, most likely though). I'm not sure their names are important. They aren't gods or anything. It'd be like if all humans just decided to leave, them someone else came along and just moved in... Wink

by **Zectiox** Wed Nov 17, 2010 8:47 am

I just thought of having a library around the ancient device. A library that was recently found by the Dwallow and including history books and scrolls written by some of the "priests" of the Forerunners (or whoever wrote it down). (with library I thought of Alexandria and the lost Library of Alexander the Great)

by **Duskcurse** Wed Nov 17, 2010 9:13 am

Good idea
