Ohhh. It's that generic "we"... "we" as in the fans, the players, etc.

Hey, I agree with whoever said having someone die in a heroic manner.  And alas, I think it's time Graham went... and if he has to go, at least let him go out in a blaze of glory!

Here's my idea... the evil wizard Shadrach sends one of his goons to attack Daventry, probably to lure Alexander into the fray.  Graham does battle with the fiend, but before the enemy dies, he makes one last move: he zaps him with a strange spell.  Sort of his way of saying "If I'm going down, I'm taking you with me!"  But at least Graham made his last stand to defend Daventry.

Maybe Graham "dies" only to come back to life 1000 years later, confused by the new technology? ;)

Think of it as a King's Quest version of "Encino Man". ;-D

How ironic.  I had an idea similar to that.

Somehow, the Black Cloak decides to put themselves in suspended animation so they could wreak havoc in the future.  Fortunately a young wizard sees this and goes to the Realm of the Dead and makes a deal with Death... to have the Daventry Royal family (plus Cassima, Edgar, and Connor) reborn in the future.

As each one is born, when their age is right, the wizard returns and does a mind meld (just like what Luna did in the Doom Tree Saga in Sailor Moon).  At least Alexander doesn't get stolen away this time around, but he learns technology (like he learned magic first time around).

Oldbushie

Interesting idea, but not as funny as Encino Man. ;)

(sorry; its one of those moments that I can imagine the exact tone of voice/expression he would use when saying it, makes it extra funny!)
When cities burn and armies turn,
and flee in disarray,
Cowards will cry 'tis best to fly
and fight another day.
But warriors know it in their marrow when they die and fall,
It is better to have fought and lost than not have fought at all.

Haha, I'm sure you can MAKE a few main characters die, if you so wish. ;) What would KQ be without corny death jokes? :P

And welcome back. I'm a newbie, too, although I also stumbled upon this project years ago. ;)

Is there a reason why you registered with this nickname instead of using your old one: DanceMagicD? ???

I didn't think I could resurect my DanceMagicD name...what I meant is are any main characters going to be killed off as in plot wise? I really hope that doesnt happen. And so far there's no plans among the team here to develop a KQX? Also, I've heard that this game (which looks to be great!!) has been in developement since 1997..Any truth to that?

Without backing by Vivendi, no( according to the words of Cesar ;P ).

Though there's a partial script for it. :P

EDIT:

MoE wasn't even released by 1997, so I think you can guess. ;)

Welcome back DMD, it's great to see you around again :)

Of course, as long as you still remember your password. ;P  If you don't, I can merge that account with your current one. :)

Like LN said, MoE wasn't even finished in 1997 so it's obviously not true.  The project started in October 2000, but development only officially started in January 2002.  You can read the letter To The Fans for more information about the team. :)

OH OH OH! I KNOW IT!  :o


Gotta' be Valenice...hence the music "the fall of Valenice."




YEAH, I ACED WORLD HISTORY BABY. Or something.

So righteous in our blood.
It looks so tarnished in our eyes,
Yet so afraid of...

Fading into nothing.

That burns within our thoughts... "

Elessar

I think that song is refering to her past...
All that is gold does not glitter
Not all who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not touched by the frost

From the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be blade that was broken
The crownless again shall be king

Why does everyone hate Connor, lol. Just because some people didnt like MOE or never actually finished it to give it a proper judging. ;D

Well I say yes, someone will die. Dont ask why I can feel it in the force.

I don't hate Connor, I just don't care about him. :) With the royal family, you *care* what happens to them.

I don't think anyone'll die. If KQ is to properly have (split infinitive but I don't know how else to put it...:sweating:) all the loose ends tied up, I don't think anyone can die. Then again, maybe the only way to tie up all loose ends would be to blow up everone so they can't have any more adventures that we don't know about. (:suffer:) But I hope not! :P

I hope this won't end like Hamlet... :o

But if Connor doesn't die, I suppose the person might be Crispin (sad but true). Even though he is a wizard, he is getting very very old and may end up transferring his remaining powers to a student of magic before he dies. Though I did read in one of the KQ books (not neccessarily in flow with the games though) that Crispin (or maybe some other magician, can't remember) turned himself into a tree to become immortal.
It was from "The floating castle" and he did it because had he not, he would have died almost immediatly. The tree was a bad side affect. In the book however, the girl Alexander saves, promises she will do her best to turn him into a human again. Anyway back to the question:
Rosella-- How could anyone kill Etheria's future Queen?
Valenice--She is the person least involved (of the royal family) in the games. The only reason I can fathom somebody killing her would be fro spite, and that in itself is very unlikely.
Alexander-- Who could get past all those guard dogs without a genie?
Even if they did have one Alex would just call Shamir.
Graham--Okay everyone knows it, but who wants to admit it? We are all getting older. Graham would be in his mid-fifties to his mid-sixties. Killing older, crippled people who have a country to run is just cruel.
Cassima-- Everyone loves her, especially teh dogs, so how in the world  could anyone get to her without a genie, hence the same answer as Alex.
Conner--Since MoE everyone hates him and do not wish to see him in any Kings Quest again. He very well may be without much protection. Therefore he will be easiest to get to.

Who if anyone will die? : Conner.
