Too typical of 'hew-mons'. Destroy what they can't have or be.

Continuing the topic of words & languages from General / game talk to here, as this seems to me to be for E:D Lore.

It might be interesting to project into the future, how a language might (d)evolve as the result of an Armageddon-like cataclysm such as World War III, but I've read in the E:D Lore of the history & formation of the Federation, the global post-war events & conditions which gave rise to the Generation Ships, & it struck me as eerily plausible how closely the lore of The 100 series trailer & The 100 Fandom Wiki might be as a plausible source of lore as a sort of "pre-quel" to those events in the foundation & formation of the Federation.

Continuing with the language aspect, I considered a way to tie the lore of those separate sources together when I wrote that passage in Synthya's Bio in Trigedasleng although, I had to include plausible derivatives & extrapolations from 3rd-party sites since the actual canon vocabulary is so very limited.

It might be an interesting tangent to the topic of E:D Lore.

I hope that you enjoy & that it might spark some contemplation.

I just read your intro. That's quite humorous and interesting! Can't wait to see how the potential paranoia/conspiracy that something is wrong/hidden develop for her! I pray she never learn the truth of the origin for that message!

I have a question re: E:D canon Lore.

If there's a site online describing it, I can't find it.

I had an itch to add more to Synthya's RP story & while I was reminded in the past what wasn't E:D canon, aside from what I've read here, I couldn't find anything that described what was E:D canon lore.

Specifically, what did & didn't exist in E:D canon.

Is there anything, anywhere which lists that, as in, the level of technology? This seemed the best place to ask...

Thanks!

That's a difficult question... but I have a tool in the discord to search for it. Basically, if it's in Galnet, EDRPG, or any of the official books, it's canon.

But we still have a tool to look things up and a crowd to answer things.

Vandal StormovikSome Far God / Thargoid lore for everyone.

My own opinion, that seems less a lore-related item & more one of a recruitment tool.

It doesn't explain any actual E:D lore to me, other than it referring to the name of your squadron & the movement.

I was disappointed in that it didn't appear to me to actually contain any E:D Thargoid lore.

For example, me being Wiccan & a practicing witch in RL, I see little place for either of them in E:D lore other than as place names, but appreciate that there are at least, 2 places which do refer to Wicca & Witches,

Witch Head Nebula, &  Wicca Town station.

Even so, I wouldn't post a video link, calling it lore while seeming to try to masquerade as a recruitment tool.

Just my observation & opinion involved here. Please feel welcome to 'Ignore' me if I've caused offense; t was unintended.

Their movement can be considered lore:

"Check out how Frontier has taken our story and run with it:

Them wanting to have more worshippers makes sense. Happy to see some players still having some influence on the game. Especially outlaws.

Here I was, thinking that Onionhead was just some silly decal for some ships.

Nah. Onionhead was popular enough that the Feds bombed a planet over it, and it did about as much good as the real world war on drugs has done.

So Synthya Wylder was right imo.

Has any one seen the Relic AI enemies from the EDRPG? They kind of remind me of the rogue drones from EVE Online. I wish Frontier put them in the game as a "third race" enemy.

I haven't; are they anything like the Achilles series androids?

I haven't started to read/watch any of the EDRPG content, but I did find this; not sure if it's considered canon or not.
