I would like to see a drunk seer. He drinks to cope with the visions he has. He walks around stumbling like Dr. Harlow in Varrock bar. Maybe make a side quest where you have to get him to stop drinking, but will still be good without it.

Aslo, Dr. Harlow is missing the . after Dr. in his name. Should say Dr. Harlow not Dr Harlow.
and Favorite is misspelled in the What is Twitch Prime paragraph explaining the promo, they spelled it Favourite.
I get my 10 year veteran cape next year!

Welcome to the forums! Misspellings have a much larger chance of being spotted by the devs if you report them as bugs ingame.

And British spelling tends to turn what is simply an "o" in American spelling into "ou". You'll notice this happens with the words "colour", "armour", etc.

LOL I can see it now. A fancy grave with alsorts of fluroushes and such and Seer Tanty (As in certainty) giving us disgusted looks and asks when we'll actually kick the bucket and stay dead so he stop redigging our grave :D

Though if you are HCIM They'll just laugh and say See you soon! :P


It'd be cool if Tanty could give us a count of exactly how many times he's redug our grave.


Unlocking titles upon reaching a certain amount of deaths could also be fun.

I think this and the seer that can replay cutscenes are the two things I'm wanting the most now out of this rework.

I just have a comment about the church concept art they showed in stream. Saradominist symbols seem weird in seers' church. They said they see seers as more accepting of different faiths which is something Saradomin or Saradominists aren't really known for...
Wouldn't it be more fitting if they had some different symbol? Maybe something to do with their powers to see into the future and how that affects their beliefs?
Saradominist themed church most certainly seems wrong.

Not sure how much this fits for this thread in this forum (and I haven't checked the entire thread to see if this was suggested), but I'd like to see Petra Fiyed in some form or another.

In everyone's favourite quest, One Small Favour, I'm pretty sure it was the Seers who sent you to find her. Why did they care about this one girl; is she connected to the Seers Village in some way? Maybe she could roam around here post-OSF or even be born here. And she even wields a Fremennik Shield, which could tie-in to Kelpie's idea of these guys being descended from the Fremennik. Just a thought, I just like to see minor NPCs have more depth to them.

Poor ol Kelpie need some help with why a Fremnnik Seer tribe would travel south and set up shop in the 4th age. Well it would have been at the very end of the 3rd age beginning of the 4th age if they did. They could have seen where the tensions between what the Moon Clan would become and what would happen with the others. And not just thought but known their presence would have made them the bone 2 dogs fought over. Other things were afoot. Dark images from the south show they would best serve going south themselves to help head it off. Turns out there were more than one or two. Some things now off the chain of their master's will, the now banished, dead or whatever with the end of God Wars and were now running amuck. And so a temporary shelter becomes more. A Pub spring up and before long Seers village takes form and people are coming them for advice. And so from then on they see their best path as staying, keeping the peace, acting as impartial Judges accepted by the different factions. A court house is built and Seers village becomes fully established.

Now throw in some examples of how they might ahve helped out. How did they handle 4th and 5th age problems ect whatever.

From today's Livestream:

I liked the Smithy (even with the holes) but it kind of looked like it was on fire, and that turned me off a bit, but seeing as it's the only actually run down building in the area, I think it fits. The excuse can be that since the Elemental workshop got officially shut down, they just let it fall into disuse.

I LOVED The Seer's council house.

I like the church, but the Architecture change is so massive, that the head priest better explain why it's as new as it is. That, or it needs brought down a few pegs.

I thought the bank was kind of ugly tbh, but I did like it's fortified theme.

The pub is adorable.

(The positioning of the pub and the bank seem a bit odd to me. Is it possible to swap their positions?)

Camelot looks BAD ASS. (I still don't remember the Remove Camelot Poll tho)

The Elemental Workshop piping idea is awesome (but I think it should look a bit more rusted than it currently does)!

~~~~

Lorewise, I think 4th Age is still a safe bet. If you're up for trolling us, you can just say that the Seer's are so focused on their future, that they don't keep records of the past, so where they came from is limited to the one or two who actually know that they came from the Fremmy, but that's all that they really know.

Additional information could be released in the form of a miniquest, or just not at all.

Seer's are Guthixian, not Saradominist. The Seers allowed the Saradominists to build a church in their village. If you need a reason why the Saradominists wanted to build a church there, just assume that they wanted to convert some of the locals.

It's stated that Petra is from Seer's Village, yes. But she might have gone adventuring again after the quest...
