Tastidian's face

[Steelfist]

Consider that the most significant gender seperation is, quite simply, due to . . . particular . . . organs, and their part in reproduction. Shadowlings don't have organs, so the idea of gender is more or less meaningless. We know the do have genders, due to the queen killing all the shadowling females. Thus, Lala is actually male. But we don't know enough about them to be sure if it is a gender thing, and what differences gender actually make to them.

Mutation is an interesting possibility.

Well, it could well be an injury; no matter how careful or powerful, everyone makes mistakes, and close calls happen to everyone.

I completely agree.  Even Napoleon, Alexander the Great, and Achilles have suffered defeat.

As for horns, we don't know nearly enough about shadowlings to be sure; I suspect it's a gender thing, if they have genders.

Offtopic: I think horns are like red hair. It is a rare trait, but not unheard of.

Lets drop the "shadowling reproduction" conversation.  It is offtopic and a little wierd to discuss.

Thanks im2smart4you

What if yes it was before he was so careful, not the floating thing but in his training. It never said who his master was so maybe he was beaten nearly to death constantly thus giving him his scar and his need not to take unnecesary risks. Or it could have been at the end of his training (say a test so his master could see if he was strong enough) and he was hit with a powerful attack, quite possibly a secret one it never showed tastidian use and he was the only one to know it after that battle. plus this also adds a chance for a side game that is very small and the guy/girl who makes these awsome games to make something on the side.

The about page on the site might have told you that the creator is Craig Stern.

The small effort of going to the about page on the site would have told you that the creator is Craig Stern.

There's no need to reprimand him--I'm sure he would have figured it out eventually. Anyway, it's better that we be courteous so that people will feel encouraged to stick around.

Acknowledged. Post edited to be less obnoxious. Sorry, I'll try to be nicer to newcom-- ... nicer to everyone.  :-[

[Reiji]

Sory dude... im just that bad with names

[bugfartboy]

Don't feel bad Reiji. During my first week or so here, back in the summer, I called Craig "CygnusStern" instead of "CraigStern". :/ My secret shame.

Getting back on topic, gosh. I can't remember what this topic is about! Must go look up!

-Edit

Oh yeah!!! Why does Tastidian have cracks in his face!

I still keep with the idea that he's a powerful warrior who simply got it, meaning that it's a scar here, in battle before he became a favorite of the queen.

[Idozen Cair]

I still keep with the idea that he has too much power, which caused his head to split.

That doesn't sound too healthy...

[ArtDrake]

Agreed. A strong leader like Tastidian wouldn't stand for having a physical impediment like that.

Perhaps it's just his sheer power coming out in radiative form, along certain lines in his face in a similar manner to that in which humans have palm lines.

Or Craig just wanted to make him look cool without precieving a before-hand backstory.
