Well, I don't think they have a king for one. And their crest is a rising sun. Also, the Aedyran Empire's crest if the pearl sceptre, and that symbol above the crown looks like a pearl. I'd say they are an exiled line of Aedyran royalty, or maybe a lapse colony. Definitely some Weodican shenanigans whatever it is. Yup: the way their quote is written, making use of a most British-sounding "Would that we..." definitely brings to mind the Aedyran way of speaking https://youtu.be/kGpsXuMvApo

I actually think the returning companion teasers are over now, and now they're teasing other aspects. I reckon this might be teasing a new faction. The quote uses 'we' instead of 'I' and talks about bringing law to this land. I think his might be our Knights of the Crucible kind of faction. Good point! The new teaser also seems to relate to the faction (Vailan Republics or Five Suns order?), not a character. Yup, I'm convinced these are factions now. The crossed cannons are Rauatai, today's is the Republics, and my prediction for tomorrow is the white scepter of the Aedyran Empire OR the stag-head of the Dyrwood. My wonderful guidebook to the PoE settings says Deadfire is constantly fought over by the major nations, and Aedyr and her colonies seem to be the last one left. My thoughts exactly!

It seems like yesterday and today's teasers are somehow intertwined. They could be introducing two new companions, yes, but what if the characters speaking also represented something bigger, like a faction or, in this specific case, their countries: Rauatai and Old Vailia? And what if their quotes referred to their homelands' views about the planned conquest of the Deadfire Archipelago? *Shifty, speculating eyes*.

This! https://www.instagram.com/p/BJbB6FLAb7Y/?hl=en And also this, coming directly from the pdf he used for his Code Europe talk and kindly shared with his twitter followers: Schermata 2017-01-21 alle 19.14.30.png Oh, and by the way: won't you all look at Obsidian's new homepage... Looks like we're dealing with a brand new corsair-type of character here! Also look at this Josh Sawyer's presentation picture: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58877228/Code_Europe_2016_Game_Programmers.pdf New Eder (and Pallegina?) picture with him standing on a ship with mast on the background. The other character semi-hidden in the picture doesn't quite look like our Pally, though: if you look closely enough, you can see what seem to be some strings of white hair waving around
