it’s implied that the meat pile Leshy gives you when you win a campaign in Act I is actually ground from Grimora’s corpse. It’s in the safe that you find the Stinkbug card in and Grimora’s corpse isn’t in the storage room with PO3 and Magnificus
A while ago you brought up the students leaving mags for the other scrybes, I’d love to see/hear more about that, like why you think each student fits their respective new home, etc.
yea! i think goobert would enjoy becoming loyal to Grimora since she's a lot more openly affectionate towards her subordinates and would be able to give him the attention he craves. Since Magnificus is already on good terms with Grimora, I imagine he'd already have a positive association towards her and wouldn't find it difficult to be around her. I imagine she'd give him permission to paint on her crypt walls. If all goes well, maybe help him reconstruct a body for himself..?
Lonely Wizard already has an association with P03 because of act 3, if this situation is happening post-act-3, then its easy to imagine them just "imprinting" on P03 and sticking around. It's a busy noisy messy factory so its very stimulating, and I like the imagery of them lurking in the vents. But I think Lonely could have a good time on any island besides Mag's, I think realistically they'd be travelling around to find new experiences
In my head, Amber is the most developed because she's my fav lol.. I like the idea of her body being rebuilt to resemble a sphynx and just lurking around Leshy's woods. Unlike the other students she doesn't seek to form a relationship with the resident scrybe; it's more or less a journey of introspection and being allowed to form an identity with no rules or masters, since I believe her head was cut off very early in the beginning of her existence. I also headcanon her as an elf so she might just be drawn to nature, lol
heres another lil sketch of her i have
had a ytpmv idea (reason for the bad quality is because discord sucks so i turned the quality in vegas way down)
There is something to be said about the fact that Luke did end up replacing P03 at the end when the Scrybes enlist his help and treat him as an equal in the face of being deleted.
There is something to be said about the fact that Grimora, Scrybe of the Dead who celebrates the death of each card, asks you to spare her in Act 2 and yet she’s the one that enables their demise.
There is something to be said about the fact that Leshy locked the Scrybes away yet still considered the forms they took - the stink bug for the woman who reeks of death, a wolf for the man who looks like a living forest, and the lowly stoat for the Scrybe that hates him more than anything - and claims that being a beast is a noble thing.
There is something to be said about the fact that Magnificus treats his pupils terribly and yet still goes to shake Luke’s hand at the end of it all, missing the opportunity because of his own failings.
There is something to be said about the fact that P03 uses the word “beast” as an insult, proclaims loudly that he will not be Leshy’s stoat anymore, and yet the last time we see him, on Luke’s computer after surviving deletion, is the face of a stoat.
Since there’s an ARG for finding Amber’s name, could there also be one for the woodsmen? Or The Lonely Wizard? Or P03’s workers? (Ik they’re robots and he wouldn’t bother naming them but it has a name so why can’t they)
Various sample images from Inscryption, 1986 for Commodore 64 and Apple II microcomputers. This is very real and not just a re-imagining of Inscryption Act 2. I recommend listening to the soundtrack of Act 2 while viewing these
It took me too long to realize this
