[edit] Just Wondering

I noticed that the whole likes/dislikes, etc. part was removed. I was wondering if this article's other editors would approve of bringing it back in terms of an infobox. I have an example one on the sandbox page that links from my user page for Fei Fong Wong.

[edit] Created

Updates soon, gonna add the stub and whatnot. I'll do the same for the other pages so we have a skeleton to work with.

[edit] Rename to Playable Characters?

I think this would be better; it may look strange that krelian, etc. will have their own pages, but Fei and company won't. Perhaps until we get this page expanded and cleaned up we can give each character their own page. Deckiller 23:36, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Main characters

Once we get all these character articles expanded, we can give each playable his or her own page. Deckiller 03:07, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question Regarding Genes

I'm interesting in certain parts of the article, namely the ones that mention the fact that "Once the Wave Existence was freed, the gene pool returned to normal." I don't think that this would be the case. When the Zohar Modifier is destroyed, Fei can still operate his gear. The game tells us that this is due to him and his gear having made contact with the Modifier. That being the case, one would believe that even after returning to the planet, Fei's gear would still be operational. Now it's my understanding that Fei's ability to be reborn in future generations of people is based off of his having made contact with the Modifier as Able in the past, so I am not so sure that he would stop being reborn. I also see no reason why Miang or Elly would stop reoccurring given that they are still in the genes of humanity and possessed part of the Wave Existence's power as well.

I don't know if there is something in Perfect Works that says the gene pool is 'returned' to normal after the destruction of the Zohar, but it didn't seem like this was the case from simply playing the game itself. TigersharkIV 19:47, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Citan's entry

Corrected some errors in Citan's section. He did not take his wife's last name (her name was Yui Gaspar when they met and married), he ordered a retreat from Shevat partially because he had fallen in love with Yui (it's not even certain that they fought at all in the invasion, but I left that in; he fought to a stalemate with a Gaspar). Midori was born in Shevat, not Lahan. This is taken from Perfect Works...I'm not sure where the idea came from that Yui's last name was Uzuki, it's clearly mentioned in Perfect Works that her last name was Gaspar, and no where in game is it mentioned that her maiden name was Uzuki... Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone wants a reason as to why I made those changes. 71.110.132.145 05:26, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
