Jagex wants us to make up our own story before the year 169 and I'm cool with that however I wish they wouldn't add small bits about our character like they have done so we have a blank slate to use.

Additionally while I believe our past should be up to us I feel there should be quests about our present. In act I think a quest about our adventures catching up to us would be a good 200th quest since it's our 200th quest not the worlds.

While the position statement probably isn't in the canon it was more from statements made my J Mods ages back, though it can be found somewhere in the postbag from the hedge. It might be elsewhere but most of the nitty-gritty is incredibly hard to hunt down more than once :( I'm not going to try and hunt it down again it took too long the first time around. Still at the end of the day it still fits if you just spend a few minutes to think about it.

Meeting History your right there within spitting distance when Guthix tells the humans to live in harmony and balance with the world and not abuse it. It be kind of hard not to notice a time traveller. You helped set the scene with you interference and that would definitely not have gone unnoticed.

'Meeting History your right there within spitting distance when Guthix tells the humans to live in harmony and balance with the world and not abuse it.'

Well, no, we heard about that from at least one of the characters in the quest. We only saw Guthix in that quest in 'story cutscenes' - Information given by the characters, not witnessed with our own eyes... Is my wording too confusing here?

Also, as for your first paragraph, I don't think it's said in the Postbag.

The I have no idea where I found it then lol. That was where I was looking though it would have been about 2-3 years ago, I had been hunting down the background on the gods at the time and didn't even know about fan sites back then.. Some of that stuff I just can't find anymore and believe me I've looked and it wasn't player written but from Guthix perspective. As I said very hard to find.

Profiled for future reading! I really really thank you for including the Balance Elemental dialogue as when I did the quest, my inane clicking forced me to skip some of it :(

Really interesting theories! I read the entire thing by the way :)


On a final note for the Balance Elemental Dialogue: In the last part where you speak to it, perhaps it is referring to us as players rather than to itself? If we are truly destined to defend the world from gods, that would probably entail defending the stone as well. It is also not the last time we defend that stone from others!

Interesting read indeed but I really don't want a history for my character, mainly because right now I can be whoever I want, plus when Jagex decides to create us (adventurers) history, It'll most likely be stupid, I mean I really don't want any "relatives" in game or any "real name"
In-game my name is Haldras, I was born in lumbridge, I didn't come out from a woman but instead just appeared from nowhere and had an age of 17.
That's my history and I'm sure most want to make their own history, not let it be created by Jagex..
