cantbeatdaboss Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Since the cinematic is coming out soon, I decided to make this post because I have not seen anyone else think of this. In the only image we have of the cinematic, you can see Wormwood's iconic gem that is normally in his chest in some form ancient artifact/ruin. Seeing this, I think it is safe to assume that the cinematic will be an origin story for Wormwood rather than showing how he came from Hamlet to DST, judging by the fact that his gem will not be in him at some point in the cinematic. My guess is that someone will touch the gem and then become Wormwood. However, I think it won't just be anyone, I think it will be Warbucks. We haven't seen anyone inside the constant that isn't a playable character (besides Charlie) and it probably won't be a character that we can play as right now, since it wouldn't make a lot of sense if there were two different versions of the same character. Warbucks is the only character that was in the constant at some point that we can't play as anymore (unless you play around with the files). Warbucks becoming Wormwood would also give him a canon reason to disappear, from the game besides the Klei reaper taking him away. They could also turn it into something ironic, where Warbucks messes with nature by hunting and ends up turning into a plant. Warbucks is also an explorer, so it would make sense for him to end up in an area with ancient ruins in it and seeing the gem as some kind of treasure and wanting it for himself. You can say what you think about this idea and/or some ideas of your own in the comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theukon-dos Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I'm guessing it will be Warly to awaken Wormwood. Partially because with them both coming at the same time, it would make sense, but also because in the promotional photo for him depicts him in the dense jungle, I can't see them showing a Shopwrecked character off in Hamlet as a mere oversight. Though for all I know, it could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Variant Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I seriously wonder if we're hurting the people who worked on Warbucks when people bring him up like this. Like, people worked on him, It'd kind of hurt to see people bringing him up constantly even when they decided to cut his case and free him from the Constant.

Maxposting Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I mean as I mentioned again... Warbucks is like put 300-100 years before the canon stuff even happens ( ya know the slavery and colonialization stuff ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hornete Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Sometimes it's the most simplest answer, some vines are probably just going to wrap around the gem and become an animal like life form. Simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeliarBAD Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 webebr has also someone in himslef but it wasnt a char. so if its really a person whos in wormwood then i think we wont be able to see how this person looks like. maybe just his shadows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troppok Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 He is the lonesome. Perhaps the green gem just gives sentiment to a baby tree gaurd and it shows how him just befriending the silent nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple A fragment/energy "fallen from sky", forming a new being with the material around him. Sounds good and very familiar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurtleKitty Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I definitely don't want sweet plant baby associated with the fallen one. Unless Wormwood's gem killed him to gain life energy but under no circumstance gave any kind of reincarnation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ResettePlayer Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 9 hours ago, minespatch said: @ResettePlayer Yes, I drew a thing once. Spoiler As a joke. But anyway, isn't the entire point of Early Access is to tweak, adjust, introduce, and remove things? Warbucks was removed during Early Access. So in a way it's as though he never was. He may be part of the literal, real-life history of the game, however we should be able to agree that previous builds and Early Access/beta stuff probably isn't canon.

SinancoTheBest Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Inb4 Warbucks is released as the 3rd DLC Character in DST. Dosens of people wanting him back would get him immediately. And besides colonial era characters are quite markettable in all games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the root growing around the gem might touch the gem and then ooga booga plant now has magical power and becomes... human? maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
