Well-Actually War Trall Emperor Tullegolar Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Being a man doesn't exempt you from voting. Admit it, Barzahl made you question your lifestyle when you met him, didn't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Aequitas Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Yes! First to vote! And no, Barzahl really didn't make me question anything. I was too busy planning his murder. And you misspelled Goettsch's name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Marlenny Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Let's see: Drakons freak me out. Alwan pissed me off. Barzahl was too psycho for me. The same for Zachary, Phariton and Trajkov. Although I always thought Trajkov was a hot name. Btw, what's up with all the psychos? There are four right there. Rahul sounds too hispanic. Huh, strangely enough after typing his name (Rahul) I just got a weird though "Thuryl should totally hook up with someone called Rahul" . I hated Eass (whose name I always pronounced with the snake ssss), and I can't really remember the rest. So I guess I'll have to pick Spharon. Although I don't like hermits, he was fairly neutral and I like the name Edit: I'm so tired of making typos or forgetting words in this case.

Unflappable Drayk Fyora Toast With Roamer Butter Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Heh, nothing like a rotgroth in a hot pink dress and heels. Especially that rotgroth who chases you around that underground laboratory. It thinks you are so cute that you have to beat it with a sword to leave you alone.

Chittering Clawbug Khyryk Eye Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Nobody else voted for Khyryk? He's by far the coolest for me. The way he just walked out of Gotsch Pits on the rescue attempt...that was a very cool bit of humor on Jeff's part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Micawber Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Trajkov all the way for me. I like that he can handle the power. Plus, he has that exotic foreigner thing going for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Emperor Tullegolar Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 Analysis: Alwan is the winner, but by a much smaller margin than Miranda. Alwan probably won because he gets more face time with the PC (over the course of two games) than any other male in the series. He is also a cool guy in general. He is very conservative, though, further supporting the fact that most Spiderwebbers sympathize with the Shaper cause. Khyryk comes in close second. He is the tragic hero, torn between the two sides, seeing evil in both. Since there really is evil in both, it makes sense people would like him. He probably didn't win because his third option isn't that much better, and it leaves him in a position where he is looking rather pathetic by the end of Geneforge 4. Trajkov comes in third. He is quite awesome, the first to find the geneforge after it was abandoned. He has that whole foreigner aura about him, and in one ending, he takes over the world. Awesome. A bunch of drakons came in after that. Combined, they received an almost significant amount of votes. They are indeed fascinating, plus, those rebel sympathizers had to vote for someone, no matter how ugly. Barzahl probably would have gotten more votes had I not made the comment in the first post. A pity, really, considering the fact that he contributed more to the art of shaping than any other single being in the history of the games. Goettsch, Zachary, and Spharon have some fans. Nobody loves Hodge, Rahul, and Phariton, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Emperor Tullegolar Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 And she didn't even get a single vote. Two different areas of shaping, really. Danette invented self-shaping, and there haven't been any real advancements in that area since her death, true. But Barzahl excelled in making new creations. Most of the advances that there have been in new creations since the Sucia Island incident can all be traced back to the Barzites, many to Barzahl himself.

Hatchling Cockatrice Men are from Slars Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Many of the advancements, sure, but I dunno about most. Easss and Ghaldring deserve some credit, and Tuldaric. We also don't know that Danette wasn't responsible for other advances prior to the Geneforge. Sucia Island operated as a research facility for many years. Regardless, what did Barzahl do besides come up with three new creations (admittedly, astonishingly effective ones)?

Hatchling Cockatrice Men are from Slars Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Well, Easss modified himself so he could shape, and then made numerous augmentations to the Drakon design. Less colorful than Barzahl's achievements, but also actual new ground. It's not like the Shapers had never created new types of creations before. Barzahl did the same old things, just with (a lot) more power and (a lot) fewer rules. As for Ghaldring, he reconstructed the Geneforge and came up with the Unbound. That's got to count for something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 It's not as if Barzahl's new creations are even all that new. A drakon is just a really big drayk, a rotghroth is just a battle alphabet with artila glands in place of sweat glands, and a gazer is just a bunch of vlish sewn together.
