OvAeons Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Very intrigued on the reason why DE chose such a vague figure in the history of Egypt. Obviously there are many more well known figures of choice. I really hope it is quest related. Inaros I--Egyptian Prince who rebelled against Assyrians when they occupied Egypt for a short time. There are others that have gone by the name but this is the first. the second was another ruler of Egypt, Inaros II, of a Libyan birth in which he rebelled against the Persians which took place hundreds of years after the first rebel prince. Does this mean our Inaros was a rebel in events preceding the fall of the Orokin? the vagueness is real Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryotekk Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 oh man the speculation has gotten to you. DE sure doesn't slack on the what if factor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OvAeons Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Thousands of years of Egypt and they pick Inaros :p why? Why not a more famous figure head/Deity? Biggest word to tie to the name: Rebel Edited March 1, 2016 by OvAeons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mak_Gohae Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Given most Tenno rebelled....the name isnt really anything special. Now, what would be interesting is that if this frame is actually the first...... UMBRA FRAME! This is the first frame created by the Stalker Army once they rebelled against the rebel tenno following the "Lotus". Maybe then we can get William Wallace-frame... FREEEEDDDOOOOOOOOOMM!!!!!

Inaros is not a god, and most other frames are not based on gods :p and most if not all stories of gods are based on a significant happening that someone had witnessed a persons actions and coincidences. Human mind is a pretty bold thing. Edited March 1, 2016 by OvAeons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AkabaneS- Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 OvAeons you are perfectly right! I also did a research on this name and found out incredible stuff , mainly just the same REBEL stuff.And also the fact that they couldve chosen Pharoah or other names but they choose this one. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonxi Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Inaros is a good name, cool but not overused, it could have been worse, he could have been name Susan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)AngelShur Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Well I can see a reason tho. The most famous mummy god-names are either not encouraged to use (especially for a video game) because of their fame and there's protectors of names out there :3 or simply because the names are already taken :P (Sobek, Shu) Take my name i.e. AngelShu(r) relates to the Egyptian god of the air. Angel God of the Air! Ok, enough history lessons now >.> imo, a rather less known name always welcomes the use without people having to constantly compare... (this also explains why I generally agree and am happy Ivara won the DC name and not Arthemis) Edited March 1, 2016 by (PS4)AngelShur Typo.

NightmareT12 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Well, think about it. It makes sense, because he's a rebel against the system: No shields frame! :P On a serious note maybe the quest will do a better job at revealing some backstory that might lead to hints as to why would the Orokin choose this name. I mean, DE could have named him Osiris and call it a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that a tenno wearing this frame is the reason doesnt really pop since we now know Warframes are drones. I guess DE could explain how the tenno rebelled without being disconnected from their frames. And say this was the first frame that could avoid disconnection?

-CM-PrestonGarvey Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Personally, since Sand Man has the whole mummy theme, I think Anubis would best fit as a name for him. Anubis is basically the god of mummification and the embalming of the deceased. He even help embalm Osiris after Seth killed him! He's Nekros' best pal because he is like his assistant. The two sound like the perfect couple! (*cough* butt buddies *cough*) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
