Aramintai 1,881 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 New Vailian companion Scalia Astera confirmed. I like her more than yesterday's Kanonn Feesh. Where do these names come from? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WotanAnubis 150 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) New Vailian companion Scalia Astera confirmed. I like her more than yesterday's Kanonn Feesh. Where do these names come from? Kanonn and Feesh sound like Cannon and Fish, which were depicted yesterday. Astera no doubt has something to do with today's stars. And Scalia... well, he was a Judge on the US Supreme Court and Scales are usually used to symbolize the Law or Justice. Also, it probably sounds more appropriately Vailian than Ruth Astera.

anameforobsidian 858 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 The line about the Luminous would fall in line with the Age of Exploration theme that PoE tried to include. It's about the right time in History to have the larger empires fighting over Island possessions. Who knows, they could be mining dead Eothas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
White Phoenix 112 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) Some interesting thing about backgorund colors, they are the equivalents of coat of arms backgrounds. Eder's green is Dyrwood, Aloth's blue is Aedyr, Pallegina's and yesterday's purple symbol are Vailian Republics. I think that the last two (navy blue and violet) might be colors of Pearl Coast/ eventually Aedyr and Readceras. Pearl Coast is linked with Deadfire Archipelago as its settlements were destroyed by pirates a long time ago. Here are the coats of arms for Eastern Reach lands. Have a look. Dyrwood Vailian Republics Pearl Coast Readceras I don't know what nation could white color represent. Maybe White that Wands? It is close to Deadfire (Naasitaq) if I remember correctly conversation with Sagani. Or White March's yellow background with white mountains. And Aedyr Empire has mixed yellow and blue colors with white scepter on it. Edited January 23, 2017 by White Phoenix 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And Aedyr Empire has mixed yellow and blue colors with white scepter on it. Whatever the next reveal happens to be (white background), it should also be the one that includes the "waves" image. I'm not sure 100% sure how the waves will display on a standard browser (if at all). You may need to check out the Project LA page with an iPhone or make the browser window really small to see it. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aramintai 1,881 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) So these pics, there are 8 of them, does that mean we can expect 8 companions? Also, those symbols are weird - if that instagram transcription picture is not outdated then some of them are Vailian, some Aedyrian and some are not in any of these two alphabets. I'm not sure they even spell Deadfire, because the word has 2 D letters but all these symbols are unique. However if there are indeed two or more alphabets involved then perhaps it's true.

AndreaColombo 5,106 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) The other two alphabets are Engwithan and Huana, also from Josh's Instagram (I linked to them in this thread on page 1.)

I can see it now, almost. That Huana alphabet doesn't have a letter D, it has similar looking symbol T. Anyway, yea, 3 more days to go Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, yea, 3 more days to go Yeah, it is entirely possible that the community got 'Deadfire' wrong (seems unlikely). We'll only know for sure in a few more days. However... it is one heck of a stinkin' coincidence than when you jumble up all the phonemes those eight characters represent, Deadfire is among the possibilities.

Infinitron 3,402 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) Hard to believe they'd commit to a release date at this stage. Maybe an hour of the day? Edited January 23, 2017 by Infinitron 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, October is too far away for a release date. Then again, tomorrow is too far away for a release date. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
