You can pick any one character from Worm and save them from their death, that one time. They would continue in the story from there, potentially into Ward.

Who would you save, and why?

Phir Se! Can you imagine how useful time travel would have been during golden morning? So many more people would have lived! Also I just liked the crazy bastard.

Fine pick. I really liked him too, even though WB panned away from the super-exciting Behemoth fight to focus in on this chapter of conversation, I loved the whole thing.

One of the most interesting powers too, up there with Coil's.

I felt like we got a good amount of behemoth fight on either side of meeting Phir Se. WB did really well and I enjoyed the behemoth part a lot. Then again, I enjoyed nearly all of Worm.

Now that you have me thinking about interesting powers I honestly don't know which I think are most interesting. So many of them were so interesting!

Now tell me what character you would save?

[–] Candelestine 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Coil, of course. lol My fav power in the wormverse, I selfishly wanted to see more of him, and ways his power can get applied. Though I'd also be tempted to include Dauntless, it'd have been interesting to see more of his potential, conceptually. He'd probably have moved the plot more too.

Good choice! I liked coil, manipulative little shit that he was he was still really fun! If dauntless hadn't gotten got during the leviathan fight I wonder how that would have impacted Armsmaster's whole story line.

Giancarlo Esposito played Coil in my head, that isn't just me, right?
