For Polaris: First POST!

This was a cool video. I hope they do more with the Rularuu.

That was a LOT of fun to watch.

Interesting though, to hear them say "We will find a way to rid the world of the Rikti forever." I think this is just establishing a goal for the group rather than a real I-12 development, since I think Posi and Hero 1 said that they plan to use the Rikti for a long time to come. Nonetheless, good stuff.

So, if it were humanly possible to be more excited about I-12, this would have pushed me over the edge. As is, I'm already so excited that the boost is meaningless =P


It is critical that you pay attention at this time.

Do y'all have some blocker or something going on? It played fine for me. And I'm using Vista.

Website worked for me using IE7 and Vista. However, my firewall came up and said it was trying to do a Bad Thing that needed to be blocked. I don't know what that website is doing but I sure don't trust it.

Midnight squad banished Rularuu to the Shadow Shard?? Huh?? What about all the survivors that are still in the SS? So did the Midnighters just shove him off to the next dimension and let Rularuu trash our neighbors instead of us??

And what was that about stopping the Circle of Thorns from trashing Orenbega? I think I need to read what War Witch says about the origens of magic again.

I liked the video. Made me wish that we could just have shields as a costume piece instead of waiting for it to become a power, which I think would prove lame.

The Midnighters stopped the Circle from *raising* Oranbega, bringing it to the surface; not *razing* Oranbega, destroying it.

And yes, that sure sounded like Alec Baldwin to me, too.

The video says they locked up Rularuu but in fact shows video of Ruladak the Strong, one of the 7 split up components of Rularuu.

Story Bible Geek time:

  1. The Midnight Squad was "hit hardest" by the Rikti because they hit the Rikti real hard first (good for them) and got vaporized (bad for them) for being such a big threat to the non-magical Rikti (a point that the current I12 story-arc is accentuating and hinting will be the source of future plot development).
  2. The locale of Oranbega was hidden from the Midnight Squad until the Rikti stumbled upon it. So when was this event where the Midnight Squad kept Oranbega from being raised?
  3. Numina and Buck Salinger are angry they didn't get a shout out as Midnighters. It's true!
