Has it even been confirmed to be someone we already know of?
We could be sitting here theorizing for days on end only for it to be a character we've never even heard of. A
World Guardian
must learn to find
Balance
in themselves.
Only then can they
Control
themselves and forge their own
Fate .

I agree that Zaros was doing whatever he could to impress us, but as pointed out, the mysterious voice sees the Stone of Jas primarily as bait. The voice actively wants the gods gathered for a reason , while Zaros would only want that as a distraction. Their personalities might be close, but their goals are completely distant.


I could be wrong, it may not be zaros.

But I think people are being bias, wanting this person to be a random new character.
We know its not Xau-Takulala, and pulling out random dragonkin and 6th elder god theories is ridiculous.

Until there is something more solid, it makes far more sense to believe it is zaros, and whatever doesn't seem to make sense right now could be explained later.

And Kemtros, wanting all the gods to show up and distraction by the stone of jas can very much be the same god. ~

I would also like to add the FACT that this flashback took place at the begining of the 6th age, before Fot*, NOT after.

And I would like to add that during Sliske's Grand Boast, Zaros seat did have a mysterious floating purple thing, maybe implying he was somewhat present, and maybe that ould imply he was capable of making communications. ~

I don't think Zaros knows that much about the siphon. He is familiar with it but not that familiar. I don't think getting stabbed by a staff gives you any info about it. NO
I do not ship ZamorakxZaros.
I follow them. And Marimbo, the best t5 god.

I agree that one person could both want the gods gathered and distracted, but that wouldn't be Zaros. His plan hinges on the gods being distracted so they won't notice him taking the Stone. Gathering the gods together with the Stone as bait would risking drawing attention directly to his plans.

It would just be a huge mistake on Zaros's part. Even if we don't know much to point towards the Dragonkin or the Sixth, I'll take nothing over how what we do know about Zaros suggesting that it's most likely to not be him. If it is Zaros, then Fate of the Gods 2 would be the best chance to provide further hints towards that, but until then, I can't believe it's him.

Also it should be noted that the Mysterious Voice dismissed the notion of beauty completely, whereas Zaros is known to find beauty in things (notably Senntisten and Seren).

And it was also very impatient, something Zaros as a being almost as old as this revision hasn't been since he left Mah and Seren.

i don't want it to be a new character - it would be far cooler to reveal that it's an old character. However, I think there's too much evidence against him - for example Sliske's suggestion to betray Zaros during FotG as well as Zaros' dialogue regarding both Sliske and his die*id* - for it to be Zaros. It would make a bad plot twist as well: "you know those 2 characters that have stopped working together? They're secretly working together!" I'm not sure who it is, I'm just sure who it isn't.

I see it differently.

Note how the Zaro's component gives "Impatience" as a perk?

And the line where the voice says "Beauty is irrelevant" could have actually meant "Beauty is irrelevant to this conversation" ~

The case for Zamorak.
I believe that all the clues point to Zamorak as the master for sliske. Mod wilson stated it was someone who has a bigger impact than Xau-tak. Few gods have had the impact on the game as Zammy has. There are only a handful. Zammy has extensive knowledge of the staff and the stone. He used both to ascend to godhood, banish zaros, and bring the other gods to their knees. Now lets discuss Sliskes ideology. He wants to gather all the gods and wants them to kill each other. Zaros states that sliske only followed when his goals aligned. Zamorak wants all the other gods dead. He wants mortals to be free of the gods. Sliske also states he lives to serve but the facial animation is of the shifting eyes which is always used when the speaking character is being sarcastic, deceitful, or hiding something. I can imagine sliske being all 3 here with zammy. Next clue is from fot*. Zaros states the first descenting mahjarrat from the desert gods was sliske. It wouldnt surprise me if he also left zaros survices and joined zammy at some point. It also appears that the mahjarrat stick together. Only sliske, azzy, akthanakos and wahliestel had not joined zammy. Akthanakos because of his rivalry with enakhra. Wally would align wherever his brother sliske is. And this is touched on when wally is not present for zaros return and he is genuinely surprised that hed not be invited. Only azzandra blindly and unquestionably follows zaros who sliske does not care to have back due to him being in the minds of his followers. Now some say sliske dislikes zammy, not true. They never actually fight and sliskes notes hint that he has an obsession with zammys beard. Zammy is the only god at sliskes ascension who wants him to ascend. Also zammy gets to the SoJ pretty easily during the heist, the same room sliske is seen speaking to the "master." Consider it more a partnership than servitude. I have seen the dark universe yawning, where the black planets roll without aim;
Where they roll in their horror unheeded, without knowledge or lustre or name.
