King Arthur Movie 2004
Moon Touched is told through a dual point-of-view that combines first and second person. Unless implied otherwise, "I" refers to Arthur and "you" addresses Creoda.
The reason for this is to emphasize their dynamic as a foil. Arthur represents the human side of kingship, passionate and well-meaning but wracked with flaws, while Creoda represents a cold, detached view of nobility, the soul-poison inherent to the divine right of kings.

Codices
Almost every codex description is written from Arthur's point-of-view. Creoda's thoughts, marked in red, will sometimes interject at random intervals. Choices that are marked by red text also denote Creoda's thoughts.
On the Minor Characters screen, codex descriptions are fixed. However, on the Major Characters screen, codex descriptions pull from a randomized pool, which change at the click of a button.

Najat: Who broke the coffee machine? I’m not mad. I just wanna know.
Rune: I did. I broke it.
Najat: No. No, you didn’t. Vipir?
Vipir: Don’t look at me. Look at Thrynn!
Thrynn: What?! I didn’t break it.
Vipir: Huh. That’s weird. How'd you even know it was broken?
Thrynn: Because it’s sitting right in front of us and it’s broken!
Vipir: Suspicious.
Thrynn: No it's not!
Cynric: If it matters, probably not, but Niruin was the last one to use it.
Niruin: Liar! I don't even drink that crap!

Hey, so I'm curious about your thoughts on jason's guns, cause I know you said you wished he still used them but I've kind of been into him giving them up? at first when it seemed like he might be giving up the idea of killing anyone along with them I understand people's hesitation but he's clearly still for killing the big guys now that we've seen him more since Cheer and the guns just made it too easy for him to react too fast or too emotionally and kill the smaller level guys who could actually be rehabilitated vs the costumed criminals that actually deserve to die in his mind. idk, i think its nice to have him not killing quite as indiscriminately and this is comics where the shorthand for that is guns, like yeah he could still kill with other weapons and i'm sure he will but it'll be more deliberate which I think is important for him, i feel like him giving them up actually helps him get closer to being that more calculated person we see in UTRH rather than the murder hobo he's been in other books, or at least gives writers less of an excuse to make him like that
I have to disagree I think the guns were an important metaphor for how Jason while being a batfamily member was different from the rest, Bruce especially hates guns so just by carrying them around it showed that he was the rebellious one, that he and Bruce ideals are fundamentally opposed to one another as Bruce would never use the weapon that killed his parents while guns are Jason's go to weapon, you also said that without guns Jason's is less likely to act too fast and kill on accident and I think if any author writes Jason killing accidentally with a gun then that's a huge misstep on the authors end bc Jason is too skilled with guns to kill accidentally or miss fire, also just the fact alone that they replaced the guns with a crowbar makes me want to scream bc Jason is not obsessed with the joker, yes he wants him dead, but his life does not revolve around the shitest clown on what ever earth they're all currently on, I'm begging dc to please let Jason choose any other weapon at this point bc it's getting painful
