Nakor (A God?) *Spoilers*

[Sinak-Rune]

I like that theory of Nakor being part of the "Ultimate god", but hopefully we will find out in WotMG, when it comes out. If it comes out.

Well no matter who Nakor is, or what he has done. He will forever be number 1 in my top 3. And that is Nakor (the blue rider), Jimmy (the hand), and Arutha (Con Dion).
I just hope Raymond doesn't kill Nakor off in WotMG.

[spazzed]

lol, Nakor will always be #1 for me, and i don't think i'd finish wotmg if he died >.> But on the topic of what the ultimate is, i believe they hypothesised that the it created the gods as mirrors of its emotions or w/e and they in turn created the lesser gods. it'll be interesting to see what ref does with wotmg and the 10k real talony, or "ten thousand lost gods of the dasati" who knows, maybe nakor put them there XD

Ishap (the Matrix/Balancer) is dead and gone. However his clergy (with the help of the 4 surviving Greater (Builder) Gods) is working towards his return.
Nalar (Chaos/Evil) is entraped.
Arch-Indar (the good goddess) is dead, but is still active as a ghost/shadow/memory, which we have seen is able to act against the agents of Nalar.

The remaining 4 of the 7 Greater Gods of Midkemia are still active, but are remote, as they are the Builder Gods.

Of the Lesser Gods that are still surviving, these are the most active in the world.

Many Lesser gods are dead, but some are just Missing. And the dead gods are able to return with the help of worshippers, so the line is a bit blurred.

It was my understanding that Wodar-Hospur was the "missing" god of knowledge, and that it was his Codex that Nakar was carrying around for centuries, which may explain his touch of godliness.

And we must remember that he did found the resurgent Church of the Good Goddess (Arch-Indar).

However, the point about Banath is interesting, and in Exile's Return it was pointed out that Banath (Kalkin) is safeguarding knowledge in Novidimus, similar to how the priests of Ishap are gathering the total sum of recorded information at Sarth (or now "that which was Sarth") up in the Kingdom (on the continent of Triagra).

Kaspar's conversation with Kalkin/Banath on his way to the Pavilion of the Gods does have a Nakar-ish feel to it, so I wouldn't be surprised if Banath was influencing our old friend.

Ah, the joys of 4 pages and we all are coming to the same conclusion: Nakor is the avatar of Banath upon Midkemia

[spazzed]

Thats the obvious conclusion or perhaps thats what he wants us to think, but i will always think theres more =D

[woodsman]

Yeah in classic gambling style Nakor's playing close to his chest behinsd all the inane chatter I wonder if he is anything to do with Banath at all. Perhaps thats what Banath want's us to think of him as.

Still, it does seem to be the most likely.

[Laerten]

The divine spark that Nakor probably has is surely from one of the missing Gods. It can't be Nalar (in Ralan Bek), Arch-Indar (in Aleta) or Sarig (was Macros now all magic users) so the best bet probably is Ishap.

After all, Ishap can't really be dead can he? I thought the Keeper under the Pavilion of the Gods explained to Kaspar that nothing can be 'destroyed', it is just changed into something else.

[woodsman]

Some changes could well be irreverisble though! No Ishap isn't technically dead as I see it. More like, unaccessible. It doesn't follow that it has to be from one of the missing gods. If it did that would widen the choice somewhat considering there were 100? lesser gods most of whom seemed to have died.

Banath is the trickster god.

I knew I was right.
Well Ok, semi right.

[Fake Vencar]

What about Jimmy the Hand having a 'sliver' of Ban'ath? I'm getting suspicions.

[dekket]

Interesting that so many of us guessed that Nakor was linked to Banath

[millambaroftheconcla]

he is indeed linkied with the god of trickery for reasons you might never have guessed that god has a major play in every one related to pug except for tomas mirnda too actualy just pug and nakor oh and nalar and banath i think have some way of contact you can figure out why i think that when you read wrath of mad god

[Ivexus]

What about Ralan Bek, he seems to enjoy fighting so maybe he has a sliver of the god of war, Tith Onaka or something

[millambaroftheconcla]

oh he is definatly linked with the gods you just have to finish the books to find out its realy rather interesting thing that he is involved with

Nakor already knows Bek has a sliver of Nalar.
