Ophelia’s DA:TV Hot Takes
History:
Originally Thedas had two races, Elvhen and Dwarves
There were two Great Powers, the Sky and the Stone
Dragons and Titans - They lived in relative peace
Until the Elvhen got greedy, started fighting Great dragons.
Elvhen defeated the dragons
How? Just lots of lives? Unsure.
Why? Greed or Protection… unsure
But more importantly the figured out how to trap Dragon Souls to get their power
And they were like, you know, how about we amass more power? What’s up with those Titan dudes?
Cue war with Titans.
Titans lose (or do they?)
Titan create blight to hurt Evanuris
To become a God (Evanuris), you need a Ancient Dragon Spirit (OGB) and a Titan ‘heart’ (foci)
Ghilly is the mad scientist who made the blight
Andruil maybe brought it back from the Abyss/the Void, but Ghilly shaped it to what it is now
Ghilly made the Qunari as an elf/dragon hybrid race
But she made them with the exclusive purpose of being more powerful beings to use in her blood magic rituals
Qunari have no names because of this
This is the same reason why Solas’ name is Pride and Abelas’ name is Sorrow, because the enslaved Elvhen had no purpose except for to their masters, the did not deserve names
Evanuris want to weaponize Blight, Mythal does not, so they blight her.
June is a Dwarf
The Evanuris used blood magic to gain power
Vallaslin was (is?) blood magic so that the gods can control their populace
Solas is an elf-spirit and a Dwarf-spirit hybrid
His titan sings in HM (Hallelujah metre)
Solavelan Crestwood happened in Fade-Crestwood - Solas can only remove the Vallaslin in the Fade.
OKAY (wishful) PREDICTIONS FOR THE FINAL FINALE TOMORROW!!! tommy said the ending was going to “break us”, so here goes:
tommy, dream, and punz all get blown up by tubbo’s nuke in the first like,, ten minutes.
they all die.
tubbo cries,,
there’s a timeskip? to some prerecorded stuff (a la quackity),, maybe we get to see tubbo building the flag like tommy wanted, maybe he reconciles with jack, maybe he goes back to settle in snowchester.
maybe he leads a new world, a new nation!
maybe tubbo goes to the moon alone
maybe the rest of tommy’s stream is done in the style of Ghostbur’s Epilogue, ie. animated, emotional, beautiful, soul destroying,
tommy goes to limbo after dying “a hero’s death”
and his limbo IS different!!!
maybe it’s the early days of l’manburg? maybe it’s his house + the bench, all intact
henry is there!!
it’s nice!!!
maybe we even get Shroud content???
a silly personal thing i would like:
tubbo sat on the bench in the overworld, while tommy is sat on the bench in his limbo, listening to cat. it’s bittersweet.
something i think is actually going to happen:
tubbo dies in the nuke blast as well/instead
what i would really like but probably won’t happen:
c!jack manifold content i am BEGGING
philza saves the day, “i told you to be safe you idiot!”
i would really love c!niki and c!fundy content as well please i MISS THEM
Ironic that my first DSMP lore analysis here is about a character who's arc is ending but here we go.
I heard people have been having thoughts on how C!Wilbur's arc is disappointing because it was set up that he is going to be this massive big deal in Season 3 and he will blow shit up again and save his Dreamie Hero and play the main villain again mwahahahaha!
And while that is fair, I expected that as well, maybe this quiet end and resolution that I am sensing CC!Wilbur is starting... Miiiiiiiight be the point?
We've seen C!Wilbur entrenched with the need to be relevant. His symphony, his legacy. C!Wilbur liked playing these roles of Hero or Bad Guy. This need to be seen being a core part of his character, especially with what little we've seen with him and C!Philza's relationship ("I hope he's proud of me), and a popular interpretation of what makes C!Quackity intriguing to him ("Someone who looks at him, not as "insane" not as 'evil' or a 'freak' but rather just unpredictable. Human. This is exciting for Revivedbur. He feels human again.")
So wouldn't it be poetic if C!Wilbur's ending isn't a bang but a whimper?
That sounded negative but hear me out.
Instead of chasing for importance and trying to become relevant in his story, his final arc which CC!Wilbur has mentioned was mostly gonna be just himself, is about him letting all of that go.
He doesn't need to go out in a blaze of glory like his first death, neither does he need to go out at all. I like one of the posts here saying that C!Wilbur is just gonna have to learn to instead just... Live.
From what I can tell with the whole "I don't have anymore plans for Ghostbur" and "That doesn't mean I'm leaving the server or that C!Wilbur is no longer gonna exist" (both rough quotes) that Death isn't the finality for his character. It isn't his bow on top, not if CC!Wilbur wishes to keep C!Wilbur around despite no longer streaming his POV in the SMP.
Nah, I have a prediction that once his final arc occurs, C!Wilbur is gonna have the same role as Ghostbur has in Season 2, simply vibing but not very important to the plot. He's just a character that simply gets to exist, and that's fine, that's a perfect end for somebody who's story is as messy and as harsh as C!Wilbur's.
And hey, just because his story is finish doesn't mean he's gonna be gone indeed, remember that. We've ended major arcs before (Disc Wars and L'Manberg) and yet the server is still going. These characters still exist. I may not get everything correctly in this prediction / analysis of what I think CC!Wilbur was going for... But I'd be happy if my guess got a few things right. Legitimately makes me excited.
Hey so I’m crying- but out of desperation I’m trying to think of ways this can still end happily, or at least bittersweet. Obviously best option is that they figure out a different way, or when you commit self sacrifice you get revived. These are the happiest conclusions we can hope for. Bittersweet ending that I’m clinging to hope for if he actually dies is that instead of being sent to limbo, if you commit self sacrifice you are sent to Mumza and turned into one of her crows. That way he can watch over everyone even though he’s gone. Of course maybe the entire server will just reset the second Tommy does and THAT is what happens when you commit self sacrifice. Worse comes to worse though, he can hang out in limbo with Ghostbur, friend, Henry and Ranboo
Lore tomorrow making my predictions because im bored
Its basically confirmed to have a fiances moment -- better start crying now itll only get worse before it gets better
One of them is going to lise a life either tomorrow or a bit further down the line
Slime is going to start becoming Quackity but the worst version of Quackity because that all the Quackity showed him. Slime didn't know any other Quackity and he has been seen being somewhat nice but Las Nevadas Quackity is probably not something you should become
Spare Dream lore
I want burger lore please im hungry
I think itd be really funny if we got George lore half of our George lore is from Quackity streams already so that'd be cool
I just realized my refusal to take the techno throwing dream out in, stems from the fact that I see in him little to no character flaws, in my eyes techno has not done any mistakes (this is me exaggerating dont come @ me) so I refused to believe he would act in such dismissive way.
Truth is techno was A Major Asshole last night, and I understand why (that Doenst mean his action is justified) Grief is a Bitch and made him lash out and he hurt Dream in the process.
Because dream Was hurt by technos behavior, I just hope this doesn't put them against each other permanently because I love them both and can't fuckig do this xjvxhdh.
Anyways the way I see lore goin from now is:
-either this had nothing to do with ranboo dying and rivals are working together in secret, we still don't know jackshit about the books dream wrote for Techno (copium💖 and hopium💕)
-dream and techno are Finally going to butt heads and Dream is killing Phil (cc!phil talks about When his character dies not if)
-rivals somehow make up and are back together stronger than ever
