![]() ![]() That signals to me how big a failure Union X is, and it makes me worried that Dark Road will fail in the same way. I haven't heard anybody express the same level of affection for Ephemer, Skuld, and Brain as for Roxas, Xion, and Axel, or Sora, Riku, and Kairi, or even Terra, Aqua, and Ventus. And that's an enormous problem.įor all its many faults, people stuck through the long-winded Xehanort saga because the batch of characters that needed to be saved were all well-loved, and they all had stories that fleshed them out well enough that you wanted to see more of them. I'm trying real hard not to judge a book by its cover, but if the way the Union X characters have been developed is any indication, I don't have much faith that these new guys are going to be very interesting. They look like a lot of those stock over-drawn characters you see in second-rate anime series. My biggest concern is, just by looking at them and their outfits, they seem to be more style over substance. I'm not sure what it is about these designs, but the first thing that jumped into my mind when I saw them was, "Jeez, Kingdom Hearts has really strayed far from that simple, innocent story about a boy journeying outside his island home." Along with Verðandi (possibly "happening" or "present") and Skuld (possibly "debt" or "future"), Urðr makes up a trio of Norns that are described as deciding the fates of people.īragi: Bragi is the skaldic god of poetry in Norse mythology. Urd: Urðr (Old Norse "fate") is one of the Norns in Norse mythology. He is often considered the messenger of the gods. Hermod: Hermóðr (Old Norse "war-spirit" anglicized as Hermod) is a figure in Norse mythology, a son of the god Odin and brother of Baldr. Vor: "In Norse mythology, Vör (Old Norse, possibly "the careful one," or "aware, careful") is a goddess associated with wisdom." Sorry, my knowledge of Norse myths don't go that far. Heremod - Some Danish king I remember from Beowulf. I know there are more than one Bragi and don't know which Nomura will choose from. Urd - I know from my knowledge of Marvel that this is the name of a Norn.īragi - More norse stuff. I know Norse mythology is redundant with gods of war and wisdom.
