The Dao. Tenno Lotust And Kigo Chakram


Recommended Posts

Topic: The title isn't very self-explanitory, so I will explain it here. The topic is "Different races and everything associated with them." This topic touches upon the Tenno and their counter-part, the Stalker.

The word Dao is an English adaption of the word Tao, a spiritual practice originating from Asia. Tao is commingly associated with the practices of "Ying and Yang", though it has a third side to it that is commingly known as Wuji. Wuji is the absences of Ying or yang, in lawyer speak, "There not being good or bad."

By what I mean by this when talking about Warframe is the races. Now before, I would have involved the Tenno or the other races. But now however, I will suggest something that overall involves The Tenno and The Stalker.

Suggestion:

The word Tenno is a Japanese title for Emporer, that in itself is a sort of regal word, filled with grace and power. The word Kigo however, is Japanese for Tyrant.

The Tenno use a Lotus for a symbol, a logo, a way to manifest their existance. A Lotus is a benevolent flower, associated with beauty and purity. This makes sense, as the Tenno are trying to rid the forces of the power-hungry Graneer and money-hungry Corpus.

What I'm suggesting is the same for this Rouge Warframe known as "The Stalker", which is basically a strange counter-part to the Excalibur.

He'll go by an organization that split from The Tenno, dubbing themselves "The Kigo" and using a vicious looking Chakram for a logo. Though is left up to the art team to work on this aspect, I will leave a refrence.

How it will work: I will offer a few alternatives to this idea.

Firstly, making more Rogue Kigos. Since the stalker is basically an Excalibur, my first idea was to make a Rogue Kigo with every existing Warframe. Their suits would be the horrid black almalgamation of corruption and Warframes like the Stalkers. I would love to see a Kigo version of Ember. Would be interesting.

Secondly, you could make them the gender variables to the existing Warframes. Then later add a plot-line that has some Kigo turn good, maybe even a new mission type? (Protect Indoctrination Crypod while you defuse it). I know what the devs had to say for gender variables, but as I had told my friends in a lengthy conversation before, what will become of the elements once all the slots are filled? Will we ever see fire being manifested in other ways than ember abilities? Gender variables with different names and different powers. Work with what you got and find new ways to use the elements and implement them into these gender variables. I want to see different fire skills, different electricity skills, and different frost skills.

Thirdly, their own Maps and Level designs. Possibly even new game types. Their Ships will be spooky, dark, a sort of synthetic and organic almalgamation, cybernetic even, with the strange Orokin/Warframe technology gone dark. Sorta like the inside of a Reaper from Mass Effect.

I will be adding upon it later. For right now, time constraints. So what do you think?

Yes... For the love of Lotust, They need to do something like this in the game. You have my support on this concept. Very nice explanation aswell. :)

I will follow the thread.

Do add more content, Darkevony! And thank you for (If anything) hopefully inspire the developers!

Why thank you. It's an old idea that sounds a little pretentious at where I stand, it's nice to see such a hearty post.

This is a great idea, man. Very well thought out. Personally, though, I'd like it more if the Lotus turn out to be Kigo, and the Stalker is working against them. A little intrigue there. And you could have the option to side with the Lotus, or fight against them. Two different paths, a chance for a little role-playing, et cetera. Of course, the downside is this will give people an excuse for serious PvP, but screw 'em.

Oh those dreaded words I hear. xD I had a problem of people constantly harassing one of my bigger threads suggesting a viable end-game that wasn't just farming but more fun. In the end, there were just one too many people suggesting pvp. Honestly, it is inevitable, but the role-playing sounds awesome.

Don't get me wrong, if it comes to PvP, fine. It should be optional, though. But it'd be against the vision the devs have. Not to mention the fact that very few PvP games lack a high turnover rate.

 

At this point, yeah. Doesn't seem much more than a grindfest. Granted, all the puzzles in the void are pretty fun though
