Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
I just noticed, re-reading some of the comics, that he might actually be dead.
This comic, panel 5. "No one denies me, Elan. Not father, not you, no one."
Nale is willing to kill Elan for denying him. It's possible that their father in some way dinied Nale and so Nale killed him.
I leave it up to my fellow playgrounders to prove me wrong, you're all so good at thatI won a thread. Am I pathetic to list that in my signture? Yes. Of course I am.

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
Not quite.
Commentary from the second book indicates that that goal was the reason he wanted the Talisman of Dorukan: So he could match his father's army with an army of outdated monsters.

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
I've been wondering if Elan will run into his father in the desert. We know that there are seveal armies trying to carve out kingdoms there. It also raises the possiblity of a complicated multiple reunion where Elan's father is the one holding Haley's father to ransom.

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
This is actually an almost established "fact." We know that the flashback has an imposing "T" as the insignia of Nale and Elan's father, while we know that "Lord Tyranor" (or close) is holding Haley's father. We know that the armies of the desert tend to transform General into Warlord... it certainly makes sense.

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
Thanks.
I figured it might have been. I've been lurking for a while and I hadn't seen any other topics about it.
At least I didn't start another V gender/what is MiTD thread.
In the one clip we've seen of Elan's and Nale's father they are shown in a fairly featureless brownish background. It doesn't seem to be desert, but it could just be some generic battlefield.

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
It's entirely possible Nale's already killed Elan's father. I mean, he did say, "nobody denies me" and then lists his father as an example. Seems like a weak thing to say if you haven't already visited punishment on the individual in question.
Or maybe Nale's just blowing hot air.Spoiler<-I won this from Dr. Bath.Spoiler

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
An army capable of challenging his father? Nale really is psychotic, seeing how I cannot provide a good reason as to why Nale would bother.

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
Perhaps, but I still think Nale is psychotic.

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
I think this is actually probably true, but for a different reason.
First, let's assume the "Nale and Elan's dad is the guy holding Haley's dad captive" theory is correct (further evidence: Elan being the only one who didn't get a last name in the cast page, or anywhere else).
As mentioned in the strip about the maps, Tyrannia no longer exists. So he was probably killed in a violent coup or something.
Now, my guess is that the twist is going to be that Haley's dad took over shortly after that happened, but hasn't been able to send a message to Haley due to plot (hard to get a message to someone who moves around as much as an adventurer, after all).

Re: Idea on Elan's and Nale's father.
It seems that Nale's father 'denied' him when he took him aside and told him something. My guess?
I mean, c'mon! He hardly is!Spoiler"You are not Lawful."Last edited by Gift Jeraff; 2010-01-17 at 09:57 PM.
