BlueBaby701 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 So, I was fighting Klaus for the first time with a good friend I met in a pub, and while I was fighting, I noticed something strange. Klaus's lock and the sacks lock, were made of thulicite Spoiler And that's where my hunt started Piece #1: The Imps Knowing that the Imps had access to thulicite, I started by looking at the Imps themselves Spoiler What do most of them have in common? 1. Long snout 2. Wide body 3. Huge horns You know what also fits that bill? Piece #2: The Reanimated Skeletons We know that the skeletons once were of an ancient, and a powerful one at that, so lets look at him Spoiler What do they have in common with the imps? 1: Strange, Monstrous look 2: Large Snout 3: Wide Body 4: Huge Horns But lets have a look at the other ancients But where are they again? Oh yeah! Piece 3: The Methus Puzzle Spoiler Notice the strange figures, presumably the ancients. While they are in full body armor, we can make out a few similarities 1: Thin body, like Wortox While most of the ingame Imps are large bodied, this theory presumes that they are Thousands of years old, while Wortox and the Ancients are presumably about a couple hundred And then again, the thinness could just be an artists depiction, and not actually what they looked like 2: Large Horns While they are wearing full body armor and/or robes, it seems the large plates around the head are concealing horns Conclusion Krampus and Klaus are survivors of the incident, maybe also the ones who drew the Methus Puzzle, who escaped to the surface and have been trying (and succeeding in) to regain their former power Wortox, However, is likely proof that there are other survivors of the dissaster, and is most likely offspring of two Imps OR Wortox is a rare magical being corrupted by the imps, proving how immense their power truly is Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/121693-i-think-the-imps-are-the-ancients/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaZoul Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I don't wanna be that guy, but I do want to say my opinions: Firstly, the chains aren't really thulecite color, and they are only yellow during winter's feast, normally they are grey. Second, I don't think that Krampus and Klaus are imps. Wortox is an imp, and he only looks like krampus cause he sucked one's soul. The reanimated skeletons were already skeletons, you can see in the murals that the king made them to defend the other ancients. Also, the armor that the ancients wear isn't body armor, but their exoskeleton as they are bug-like creatures. So yea, I don't want to sound like I just want to ruin the whole thing, those are mainly just my opinions Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/121693-i-think-the-imps-are-the-ancients/#findComment-1371052 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArubaroBeefalo Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Also in the murals from the puzzles you can see how different look the ancient in comparation with imps Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/121693-i-think-the-imps-are-the-ancients/#findComment-1371056 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Dark Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 The ancients were more like bug-people, I think? Since they've exoskeletons. What a lovely theory though!

In the murals, you can see the the King created the, probably for protection. The Shadow Heart has the soul of the King, and when it is placed inside a skeleton, the skeleton becomes the vessel. As to why the shadow pieces have the heart, I cannot give an answer to. Maybe charlie gave it to them or something.

Hmm I'm not sure about the heart... Ye, that is what i though but if you see metheus head it has similar horns like fw. Also, if isnt an ancient bones (fw summons body parts during the fight and i also though that are body parts from that citizens) what is that humanoid creature?

minespatch Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Now I like the idea that Wortox might be of the race from the fuelweavers. Perhaps the ancients wanted immortality and used the imps/krampus as pawns to do body transfer?

gaymime Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 the ancients were insectiod and horns are just a short-hand for corruption in the game. it is a nice theory but not really seeing the evidence of it, you know? but yeah, the skele is just ancient beefalo(ancestor) bones, hahaha Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/121693-i-think-the-imps-are-the-ancients/#findComment-1371093 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't really see much of a similarity between the skeletons and Krampii. If you put red fur on them they would really stick out from the other two.
