>>5347791>>5347791hehe NED was an analogy I was thinking of... All my quests have hidden themes, for example in the old Invultua Galerne Golgotha quests the hidden theme with Lotan L'Otan was war. I even included an item in Galerne that basically said it, remember this one?
War Fan
Concealed, Very Swift, Surprise Attack, Sharp, Deathblow, Witch-breaker, Parry, Shield, Strong:(Thrust, Slash), Weak:(Blunt, Crush), Short Reach, Elegant
Folding fan with hardened black iron and gold spokes and a hidden inner cutting edge. Best unfolded and deployed in a single attacking motion, as once the element of surprise is lost, the reach of the weapon is poor. In Imperial Langkasuk a black iron war fan is said to have shielded a general from poison darts, throwing knives and the stabbing thrust of a demon war spear. Folding fans are also a popular summer ornament amongst the noblewomen of Galerne, as well as actual warmongers.

But this time round, with The Usurper, the theme is not even hidden; it is about usurpation, how culture gets overwritten by history. Eg how even the mighty Aragorn, hero king of the West, might become ridden as a horse by a certain Strange person, in a (not-so?) Marvel-lous other universe...?
