The Fallen Enchantress herself

Her name is Ceresa she leads the Resolyn faction.

Based on the mind numbingly awful campaign, it'll be that chick who rules Pariden. 

She is:

super magical

reclusive

angry at the hero

a chick

That's pretty much all you need to speculate her into the foozle. 

I'm kind of hoping I'm wrong, and that all the lore from that campaign will be burned in a firey fire of doom somewhere, with something new, simple and less friggen "yay multiculturalism let's all work together to fight the strange black people from far away" in its place. 

Yeah, ok, so they summoned a demon or a dragon or something. Considering the atrocities committed throughout the actual gameplay, it'd be nice to remove the pseudo good v evil stuff (yeah it's not formally in there, it's just everything but) and focus on them co-existing uneasily in a post-apocalyptic wilderness where, yes, it's ok to be some kind of freakish undead ghoul thing so long as you don't try to steal my porridge in which case I'll shank you, your mom and all your kids. More Victorian Great Game, less white knighting. 

You know how refreshing that would be? Damned refreshing. 

Fatnonfree, your question is easy to answer.  Who is the fallen enchantress?  Me, of course.

Procipinee isn't Fallen, she's human, she rules a Kingdom, not an Empire.

I wanted the game to have an ethical framework that connected to the metaphysics behind things like restoring/polluting lands. Lately, I'm wondering if I'd rather see Empires and Kingdoms dumped completely, as you suggest. Maybe not. My core complaint about 'the good vs. evil problem' is that it really never got to be more than differences in art sets and research trees. Boring, that.

GW, I agree with you.  The evil/good (un)fallen dichotomy seems to have little to do with gameplay.   Perhaps if player(s) gained/lost game bennies (of whatever sort) based on how much of the world's terrain they have transformed to their alignment - or something like this....

A "might makes right" style, I like it.

I can guarantee you Procipinee is not the fallen enchantress

LOL, if this is true why don't you tell us a bit about yourself and what you do in the game?

Personally I dont really care if the fallen enchantress is an angry ex girlfriend of Relias's with a chip on her shoulder or not.  I think the single player campaign could use some work though.  

1. Weak kingdoms.  Princopinee was supposed to be this butch enchantress ruling a mighty kingdom.  Instead shes a level 1 npc with a tiny village.  Just from a story/game consistency point that really bugged me.  It made me want to go conquer all of the other kingdoms and bring them under my yoke since they had nothing to offer in the final battle anyways.  I mean, why bother soliciting them for aid when my weakest village was 50 times better than the strongest 'kingdom'?

2. Underdeveloped story.  There was an ancient war that broke the world.  Nothing groundbreaking here.  In the campaign, why do we care if the fallen want to take over the world?  Why not join them?  They already have one kingdom of men in their alliance, so you know they are ok with humies.  What is the downside?  What is at stake?  It would be much cooler if there were something at stake.  Or if you had some clue what the goal of the fallen was aside from world domination.

Ok, fatfree I will tell you about myself.   Oh, wait a second.  Its on a need to know basis.   Well, since you asked nicely:  

"...yourself..."  = I'm me.

"... what you do in the game?" = Provide the central character and plot elements for FE.   

Now, aren't you glad you asked.   LOL.   

(we all need a little sillyness now and then) 

Elena,

I know you want to tells us more... but Marketing asked you to keep up an air of mystery to spur sales.

I for one remain enchanted....

Actually, marketing has been very nice.  What really keeps my lips tight, so i don't prematurity reveal pertinent and sensitive data regarding my FE project is this:  I will have the very first hybrid mounts to offer the best of my heroines.  These mounts are a mystical mixing of the two most ferocious species of mounts in all the seven universes.  I suspect you wish to know what these beasties be, yes?  Hint:  they are not insects or arachnids.  

Owlbears?

***BEEP***  wrong answer, Harry Potter - but close.. 50%:   Answer: Froggy-bears!  Very large froggy-bears.   LOL

And hey... why are there no cats in the game... wolves, bears -oodles of arachnids as Elena pointed out- not a single great cat.  I want Hobbits riding Sabretooths with adamantium sling bullets FTW!  1d6+3 for the bullets plus the d4/d4/d8 for the claw/claw/bite...

I find myself veering into ridiculous request territory... Let's get back to the subject at hand...

The frog-bears could have the "swallow whole" ability from AOW:SM....

And that could be the next content... er... contest for FE:  Design a compelling NPC for the game... Or just take snippets from forum-goers profiles and actually put us in the game... 

If we keep this up... we'll all be beholden to marketing... but it sure is fun painting this fence... wanna try?

I think Fallen chicks should have ghetto booties.  As we don't have anything but flat butt white human chicks, all nations are white, and I like big butts, and I cannot lie.

I'm seeing a girl (we're both Swedes, Nordic & White) who works at a fastfood restaurant and she's eaten too much of their damn food so her behind has grown too much       It looks horrible!

You still know how to make eye contact, yes?  

BTW, the froggy-bears have nine lives, just like Mr. Froggy himself... kinda like the tradition started by Alfred Hitchcock, and adopted by Stephen king.   Each had cameo appearances in their movies.   So, put your hobbits ON the froggy bears.
