bit of lore: DOMINUS IS DEAD!

I'm sure this is a detail most people ignored in the Dominus fight, but if you go up the stairs where he's standing at the start of the fight, you'll see this:

look on the left side.

Spoiler
that's the corpse of the real, human High Templar Dominus.
powering all the machinery.


so, what is the thing we are fighting?
did he sacrifice himself, to attain "godhood"?

i actually went up those stairs and saw it too, and no, its not dominus real body. Like everything else, they are merely tools used by dominus.

It could be an experimental thing like grigor.

that thing has all the pipes connected to it, and an important-looking face.

it's either Dominus' real body, or what's left of poor Emperor Chitus.
I vote the former.

after all, real High Templar Dominus is as human as Piety, probably much older, and more brains than brawn.
it makes perfect sense that the 7-foot, zooming-with-energy "Dominus" we are fighting, is an elaborate machine powered by the life energy of the real guy, and somehow having his soul in it as well.
his - and Piety's - "greatest creation".
the ultimate tool, with which he intends to "ascend to godhood" (Open Beta trailer) - by sacrificing himself.

remember, "this world is an illusion"?
we are fighting something unreal alright.

I wish GGG provide an official response to this.

You wont get it.Story continues,and will be revealed later.
For all we know for now,it might be a face of a pervert having orgasm while his electrocuted.(and disembowling).

So all we can do now is specualte,cause speculations are fun xD
Bye bye desync!
I thought Dominus is just super augmented like Brutus, fidelitus etc.

But with much more research and effect. That body could just be some kind of power source.

This is probably the best way to describe ascended Dominus.
