translating and reorganization in progress (e.g. "Jamie" and "Where went all the details?" are misplaced here)


Gapfilling

This section's goal is to create list of things that influence a sequel, which means to solve some question about plot gaps and what can be ignored because it is just a in-game thing made up for the player.

For example: Why has Muro transformed into a huge mutant when Konoko kills Griffin?

  • We can say it is a gamplay element. Why killing Griffin if nothing changes afterwards?
  • Or we create a plot-wise filler. It could be a hallucination from Konoko because the Daodan corrupt her mind when killing Griffin.


Griffin in a Syndicate helicopter?

Griffin and his two men (why not more?) arrived in the mountain complex by using a helicopter that looks like a Syndicate machine. Strange, isn't it?

  • Maybe bungie hadn't enough time to create another heli type.
  • Then again, you might think that they stealed this machine at BGI or a smaller Syndicate base to get into the mountain complex area with more ease. I'm thinking in direction NCW and ID-tagged vehicles.


Where went all the details?

Lost things:

  • animated faces
  • blood
  • the Iron Demon (mech)
  • multi-player
  • a minor character (see LoseGame picture)


Changed things:

  • SLD tankers were actually human wrestler
  • Konoko was a cyborg and not a Daodan-Chrysalis host


Answers about:

The data files shows you that even levels got deleted (5, 7, 15, 16 and 17). ssg discovered a old mac version that explained some stuff. He also made this level overview.


About the families Kerr and Hasegawa

Anyone who want to make a poll about the forenames?
My suggestion is "Momuto Hasegawa" and "Lorenz Kerr" (for no special reason).
  • Lorenz and Jamie are brother and sister. When Jamie (Kerr) married Momuto she changed her name to Hasegawa.
  • Momuto is now Lorenz' brothers-in-law.
  • Now Muro is Lorenz' nephew, Konoko his niece, and he's their uncle.


Jamie

Okay, why do we see here some of Lorraine's creations?

I think "Janice" and Faerie are a possible inspiration for Jamie's character. And maybe Lorraine was allowed to give her the name. Remember: J is graceful and feminine. =P

She likes word plays, heh? You can find these on her page:

Welcome to The Rookery

rookery: a colony of gregarious birds or animals... In the case here, instead of animals, it's pictures... =P

The page's header shows a flying vehicle out of the anime "Nausicaä of the Valley of the winds". Its (file) name is "mehve(2.JPG)" and came from the German word "Möve". And Lorraine's homepage name is "mehve's aerie" so you can translate it as "seagull aerie". Now remind "rookery". =)

I don't think I've drawn
a fairy quite like this girl...

Inspiration for the wings came
from Yoshitaka Amano. The
girl was drawn first... but since
she looked as if she was flying,
I added on the wings... and voila!

I just *had* to color the pic.
Of course, using Photoshop.
Agaaiiinnn...

Seriously, one of these days, I'll
put up a picture here that's NOT
colored in Photoshop... one of
these days... ;)

Jamie.png

This is also one of the characters I've created. Although I plan on changing her name, she's been named Janice for about 10 years and I don't know if I'll ever change it. The picture was done in pencil as you can tell. I am still reluctant to put my orig characters up here (they're uninteresting to passersby, I think) but I just really liked her pose. Unlike Lyra, her youngest sister, J is graceful and feminine. =P


Hasegawa kidnapped, Kerr escaped

How did Kerr get away with a Chrysalis prototype and Mai while Hasegawa were kidnapped? Do Kerr saw Syndicate's raid coming and didn't warn Hasegawa?

Here're two gap filler scenarios:

  • Both saw them coming and knew that the Syndicate wanted the Chrysalis. This was a problem because the prototypes were based on Mai's and Muro's code. So maybe Hasegawa said 'hello' and keep them busy what allowed Kerr to get away. Kerr went to the kindergarten and took Mai with him. But the time wasn't enough to save Muro also. The Syndicate appeared at Muro's school. (He's around first grad, then, if we consider that Mai and Muro aren't twins.)
  • Or both tried to escape but fleeing in different directions, wearing a prototype by their side. -- 13_65_23 Kerr: They had been watching us very closely. When they figured out what the Chrysalis was they raided our lab. We'd only grown two prototypes, based on the genetic codes of you and your brother... That would explain that the attackers focused on getting Muro instantly. They could have knew the prototype's "reservation" as well.


Konoko's brain engram (chip) and the Sytropin

How did Konoko get implemented the brain chip? The consoles says that any surgery fail on her. On the other hand we don't know what happen when.

  • So, maybe the implementation was done a little time after the Daodan's, or even before.
  • Or they cooled her down (slowed the bloodstream, remember the idea of cryofreez), injected a bigger dose Syntropin and made it then.

Ironically Sytropin is a hormonal growth booster and wouldn't stop the chrysalis. I think they "chose" this name just by coincidence, grabbing a cool name... Gap filler impossible here, lets ignore it.


What's the connection between Mai and Mukade
