DanPaul7 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 The origin of the Tenno sounds like it might be x-rated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EclecticDragon Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 In my mind I think the two tales are really to entwined to be able tell one with out telling the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 You can't have both only one or the other though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteCr0w Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Probably the Warframes. I have a strong interest in tech, especially future tech, so for me that would take the cake. It's probably why I love sci-fi so much. It's basically spelled out for us that the frames have an Orokin origin, but the actual history of their development strongly interests me.

Mentosftw Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 DE's picks the third option: Neither of the two and just sprinkles tidbits of info with large gaps in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatantfool Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Easy. This is actually one of my favorite topics. I've always mused that the 'Orokin' themselves are Alien and that the Warframes are a byproduct of their Military science. The Tenno are the warrior caste of a culture that sprouted from the alien technology enhanced era that followed Humanities discovery of this lost equipment. The Lotus are yet another caste.

Ha, we think along similar lines. Oddly enough, amongst the plethora of lore speculation available on the forums I haven't seen the "alien" card talked about as much as other theories. I'm of the mind that the Orokin are not native to the Earth either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie9001 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 If you had a choice to either know the origin of the Warframes, or the origin of the Tenno which would you choose? The Origin of the Ten Frames. What do I win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 The Origin of the Ten Frames. What do I win? You win a trip... Down the rabbit hole! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orbitalgear Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I would have to say the Tenno....would be interesting to know how we got to where we are. "Rise of the Tenno" Would make an awsome documentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm of the mind that the Orokin are not native to the Earth either. Yeah well, it makes a lot of sense to assume the Warframes and Relics aren't human tech. When the Tenno create new Warframes they are always weaker knockoffs. The difference between a Prime and a normal Frame. The technology is insanely advanced, to the point that the Corpus are desperate for more and the one time we know they got some their technology lept ahead with Fusion Moa. Tenno are capable of things that simply aren't possible under any normal conditions with any technology we've seen from the other factions. Mag is capable of causing a massive shift in gravity AND magnetizing the bones of a victim to crush them into themselves. Tenno are just as desperate to recover Orokin tech as anyone to further their own Technology/Arsenal. The Orokin era is likely in reference to a time where the people the Tenno came from had open access to quite a lot of Orokin tech and flourished because of it. Some cataclysm came along and made the Tenno hide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loswaith Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Warframes, I like the idea of Tenno being a mystery and it lets you make up your own mind on what they realy are and how they interact with the warframes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nethershadows Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Warframes. Reason being, I'd learn about there original origins, the orokin. I'd also learn about how and why the tenno learned of them and how to use/construct them. in truth, learning about the warframes you'd learn all the impotant bits of tenno history an much, much more.

Evan_ Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Tenno. Nothing is -really- told about them like if they'd make statements, it would displease a part of the community who thinks otherwise. What might be just the case. Nevertheless, I'd prefer to reach a consensus. Truth about Warframes? It's just technobabble. Everyone who played Cyberpunk or Shadowrun could explain the details all day long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
