dont u mean animorphs?, i had like a whole heap of those books, and the sea slugs are what i thought of when i saw em (read animoprhs b4 rs)

 

 

 

but the real question is, the inscribing on the doors near the beginning, looks a lot like ancient

 

 

 

good thing there are stargate references, but i though nbc already pulled sg1?

 

 

 

also, (after lookin thru the tipit guide) the name sounds goa'uld as it has the apostrophe

 

 

 

(support sg1 by signing the petition linked in my sig if you want to save sg1!)

[Atomic_Boss]

sorry to burst all of your bubbles...but i believe that there is no correlation between the two things.

 

 

 

first off, its Col ONiall.

 

 

 

when i first saw it, it brought to my attention of Mod Niall, a Jagex Mod, who i believe left? but am unsure of.

 

 

 

so uhhhh, doubt it. but if he is the mod that left i have no doubt that it will be his "mark" on the game.

[Atomic_Boss]

I still only count the one.

 

 

 

However, the underlying reference in the quest is H.P. Lovecraft.

 

 

 

From the official forums, can't find the quickcode:

 

 

For those of you that may be wondering about the title. First and foremost. This has nothing at all to do with the Fish Monger in Witchaven.

 

 

 

What this does have to do with is this. First and foremost Witchaven shall play a major part in this thread. As will some of the other Previous Updates.

 

 

 

For those of you that are familar with Lovecraftian Lores, then welcome aboard. For those of you that are not. Then I kindly ask you to please do a bit of research on them.

 

 

 

Now onto the Thread.

 

 

 

Witchaven really Port Innsmouth in disguise?

 

 

 

First and fore most, the thing that makes me bring up this clue is this. First the look of the Villagers. They have the skin coloration as described by HP Lovecraft of his Deep One Hybrids. They also seem to have the same facial charactiristics as some of the Deep One Hybrids.

 

 

 

The Fish Monger, and the Mayor. Bulging Eyes, unhealthy greenish palor to their skin.

 

 

 

The Villagers, keen on not letting thier history slip. The Shadow over Innsmouth any one? Which for those that know, Port Innsmouth was a Fishing Village in Mass.

 

 

 

The Creatures.

 

 

 

1. Jad we are all familar with what he looks like, and my fellow Lovecraftians out there will understand this name. Gol-goroth, the God of Black Stone.

 

 

 

2. The Troll Queen, for those of you that have completed Swan Song, you will know what she looks like. Which Lovecraft also gave the name of his Great Old Ones. Cythlla, the Seed of Cthulhu.

 

 

 

3. The Dagganoth, For my fellow Lovecraftians out there, then you will understand the Daganoth, or the Spawn of Dagan.

 

 

 

4. The Chaos Elemental, for those of you that have seen it, it is a single eye surrounded by Tenticals and a cloud. Which is exactly what the Great Old One Othuyeg.

 

 

 

5. Mother Mallum, The Slug Queen, entrapped in the Temple, and uses as host to speak from. For the Lovecraftians out there, then you should recognize The Curropter of Flesh, The Master of the Temple Gloon.

 

 

 

On top of that, the fishmonger's name is "Ezekial Lovecraft"

 

 

 

The most striking parallel is Dagganoth and Daganoth, personally.

 

 

 

and the reply it got from a writer of the quest:

 

 

 

Mod Splinter

 

Jagex Mod

Guys... Wow...

 

 

 

I am so chuffed with the depth of knowledge and maturity of this thread

 

 

 

Yes, Mythos lore is something of an interest of mine and I defiantely had it in the back of my mind when writing the area and it's associated quest.

 

As to the validity of some of your references.. Well, you'll just have to wait and see

 

 

 

I hope you enjoy playing the quest as much as I enjoyed writing it.

i noticed this too, but the sad truth is that itll be our only reference to our beloved stargate soon, or am i the only one who knows the plans for the show? nbc is pulling it from the network and leaving sga (nbc owns scifi). alot of angry people over this, exspecially since the announcment was made right after the big two zero zero...pretty bad timing on their part i think . hopefully another network will buy it and keep it going otherwise this is the end

 

Dude!!! wtf? They're taking Sg-1 off! That's freaking stupid! That's why SG-1 isn't on SciFi at 5:00 daily anymore...

 

 

 

 

Well are there any fish in his pond?

 

hahahahahha that made me laugh...and yes, as of season 8(i think it was 8, mobius pt. 2 if its not season 8) closer... there are now

 

Was that the episode where they find the time-machine ship?(one of those later appearead in a flashback in Atlantis)

 

 

 

+ its general o'neil now. or close to that rank

 

cam mitchell is leader of sg1.

 

The old seasons were way better...

 

 

 

Anyway... Yes, i think it is a StarGate reference... but ONiall got sea-slugged...

[joecool280]

I saw an ep where the oneil got possesed by a g'ould so that fits in too, about him being controllod by sea slugs.

[Shaddd]

It's Col' O Nial < in rememberance of Mod Nial.

[cardovilian]

I'm still waiting for the Chuck Norris slayer master :D

 

 

 

That is probably the funniest thing I have ever seen in Tip.It.!

 

 

 

But I think Mr. Miyagi (Karate Kid) would own everyone as Slayer Master. But that idea was inspired by wakka102's

[Twiceburned000]

I havent done slug madness yet but was reading the Kbase and it mentioned somone called:

 

 

 

Col'o'Neil

 

becomes

 

Colonel o Neil, the leader of SG1. It struck me straight away! \

 

 

 

I did search but it didnt find another thread about this.

 

 

 

Perhaps the dial-a-Fairy-Ring-address wasn't a big enough clue >_>

[coolguy98741]

omg jagex has gotta steal ideas from stargate. and i was hoping i wasent the only loser who watches that show! but ur right about the fairy rings and lost city. go jagex lol

[marlin85]

W00T STARGATE SG1 FTW \

[bossi]

Wow someone else got it im not the olny one, done you just love stargate sg1 and atlantis :D

 

exactly what i was thinking!! =)) stargate owns =)

[djo0]

Lol I knew the name Jake O'Niell reminded me of somthing... Anyways, the fairy rings are like a total copy of the stargates. Stargate Atlantis owns 8-)
