Captain Fairgraves faith
|
I think we will see more lore in whatever else they are gonna add.
And conserning Fairgraves, i highly doubt we will see him anytime soon,but we might see more of the entity that finally wiped him out at the end of that quest in Act 3. And thats what i'm more interested in :) |

My personal opinion:
Fairgraves is the victim of a mutiny. Shipmates know that the captain can't be killed as long as the Allflame is in his possession. Slave Girl steals lantern and GTFOs, FG gets whacked. At this point 1 of the following 2 things happen: 1) FG is still AF's master, even tough it's not in his immediate vecinity. AF works at reduced potency, keeping FG alive (more or less). Evidence to support theory: skellington FG, dead SG (because AF did not work for her). 2) SG is AF's new master. FG remains animated by his desire to get his trinket back (plenty of examples in fiction where people "cling to life" driven by desire for vengeance/thirst of knowledge/love/etc). Evidence to support theory: FG's inability to leave Siren's Cove (the region where he lost AF), SG's rather fresh looking corpse (either she died recently of natural causes => not saved by AF, or she did not know how to control AF => AF kinda works on its own, preserving the girl's corpse). Either way, don't ask me who and/or why dragged a boat in an underground cave. I'm stumped. Aaaanyway. FG wants to evade the banhammer. Plan #1: FG asks the player to bring AF, then commits suicide by cop. The plan fails because FG is already dead, however since his physical remains were destroyed and his burning desire quenched, FG's soul is now free to do whatever he wants. Instead of heading for the light, the idiot decides to try again. Plan #2: mix deadliest poison in the world with a substance which affects the soul, hoping to harm the soul that way and trigger a response from AF. First part of the plan works as intended, but AF only works on the living. As a result FG is visited by [GM]Angel_of_Death who issues a well-deserved permaban. TL;DR Fairgraves didn't want to stay dead. Now he's dedead.

" Again some misunderstood the concept of irony. |

" Fairgraves is like freddy, jason and michael. he cant die as hes already dead. So hes undead and keeps giving us quests. |

Now that was one necro that made me smile ;-) Well deserved!
A sword he brought, his foes to maim and rend,
from places dark behind forbidden doors, But night by night he woke with frighten'd roars from darkest dreams, too strange to comprehend. (Anonymous) |
