    That’s a VERY interesting theory, but I’d be sad if it were true. Right now everyone is speculating if Tom is/isn’t Rupert’s father. This theory would mean they likely weren’t related at all. So as interesting as it is, I’m kind of hoping it’s NOT true.

    Although…

    If Tom somehow does go back in time and father’s Rupert, then Rupert grows up and influences Tom’s manifestation…

    I don’t know. But maybe if the Demon All-Father was ALSO Tom’s dad, then they could be brothers. :-s

    Ok, so no resolution to the Rupert/Tom/mom thing in Apostles of [b]DOOOOOM[/b]. Well, there will be a LOT of other things to speculate on, though. Maybe Hortwell and Zargy.

    Oh, oh! You know, Damien has said that he’s gotten used to having Edwyrd’s advice. Maybe he’ll become another warlock? He doesn’t seem the type, but he’s been closer to Tom than I’d have thought. There’s going to be more there, I feel. I wonder if Antefalken will formalize his relationship to Tom? Become his official servant.

    I also really want Tom to meet Bess. I’ll admit, Bess has really intrigued me, with the back-end stuff we’ve read in THH. I kinda think the Egyptian pantheon is cool anyway, and I feel a meeting between Bess and Tom will be interesting. Especially if she tries to seduce him like she did Exadude and Tall, Dark, and Jerky. Tom will probably get flustered and run. LOL She could come by my way. I have a thing for catgirls. =p~

    It’s kind of sad that Tom is persona-non-grata in the Courts now. It’d be interesting to see Tom show up now with his entourage. Like a celebrity. Of course, he still could. Sammael may invite him to spite Lilith. Wouldn’t THAT stick in her craw?

    [quote=Tizzy;3009]In fact I just came from where they are and Bellyachus was living up to his name….

    Oh, they were able to get his head out of his butt though!I suppose that’s the important thing.But jeez those horns of his really had to hurt going in, and coming out.[/quote]

    Owww! I didn’t think of the horns at all! That must have hurt.

    Ok, I can’t get the Lethal Weapon image out of my head.

    Ooo, you could use Denubian wyrmwood cardstock and heat resistant paint. If you get the imps to draw and design the cards, you can use a few gems from the Doom Caves, and outsource the reproductions to a mid-tech Earth. Real gold-foil rare cards. You could make a metric crap-ton of money. Just be sure to make Tom’s card super bad-ass, and Bess’s card with her in a sexy pose.

    …I do love a cat-girl.

    Really, I just want to see Tom’s reaction when he has groupies (and grope-ies) looking for his autograph, or to sign his trading card.

    It occurs to me that the way Estrebrius was hyperventilating when he first met Tom, that he’d be one of your first customers. I really hope we get to concentrate a little more time on Vaselle and Estrebrius in Apostles of [b]DOOOOOOM[/b]. I kind of liked that duo. And I believe Vaselle’s a little more than a groupie. He’s a full-on convert.

    [quote=Bradyman;2963]I forgot about that. it will be hilarious. Just imagine living with a medieval level of technology, and then you see a fight with lightsabers, lasers, and gravity cannons. [/quote]

    Magic. That’s all anyone will see.

    [quote=Bradyman;2964]I have been looking around, and having seen much speculation about Rupert, and rumors and speculation seems like the best place to ask, Is it possible that in the future tom becomes a Chronomaster or temporamaster or whatever the time warriors had and Rupert is his kid?[/quote]

    I was speculating earlier on something similar to this. I suspect that it MIGHT have something to do with the World Gate. Phaetus said in THH that the World Gate can go “anywhere in the multiverse where another World Gate is. Any distance in space, any distance in [i][b]time[/b][/i]” (emphasis is mine). I can see a scenario similar to several in the Stargate SG-1 series, where a malfunction, accident, attack, or anomaly skipped someone through time. However, given Tom’s current attitudes toward sex and love, I’m having trouble getting him into a position to father a child, then leave. He would never willingly leave someone he’s made a child with, which would indicate a tragedy that would significantly bring down the light mood prevailing in the first two books. Still, I suppose it could happen if it was couched as a continuity problem. You know, “Do this, and do it this way, or Rupert will never exist.”

    Similarly, I have a problem with your scenario, as it would require Tom to DELIBERATELY go back in time, find Rupert’s mom, have sex, conceive Rupert, then leave her for ten years, then NOT interfere as she’s stoned to death. While I suppose it’s possible, it seems really out of character.

    [quote=Bradyman;2964]OR an even crazier idea: the cocordenaux has been travelling the planes as a mortal for millenia, he has had several kids, maybe in low mana planes they don’t manifest as demons unless they are summoned. Tom and Rupert are brothers and their father is the concordenaux, the only demon powerful enough to have a greater demon half-demon son. I know there are a few holes, but it is a fun theory. So, would a half demon kid on earth necessarily manifest as a demon, or could it lie dormant?[/quote]

    BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Tizzy, is there something you’d like to tell us?

    So I have a question. The Concordenax is said to be the Demon Father, and some demons say it’s name as a curse like a deity. So would the Concordenax get mana like a deity? Even now, after he’s been “gone” for a couple thousand years, Boggy (who supposedly never met him, yeah right) uses the name occasionally. Would that casual reference to something as close to a god as demons get send a little mana toward him?

    LOL, just trying to figure out how that could work. I’ve heard of virgin births, but they were all women. Never heard of a male virgin with a child yet.

    Well, now we ALL have something to look forward to. Merry ChristmasHanukkahKwanzaaFestivusCthulhuDaySolstice to us!

    Speaking of which, do demons celebrate any holidays other than “Killed my Accursed Master Day”?

    Tizzy, you don’t have a good name to slander.

    Unless your True Name is good? Why don’t you tell us so we can judge?

    That being said, I don’t remember T-A-G mentioning that Rupert’s origins don’t involve time travel. Was that on the Amazon boards? i don’t go there, so I don’t know what’s on them.

    Well, it certainly sounds safer to follow a link. We know Tom can follow a link, and create a gateway using nearby fire. I suspect he doesn’t need to use the fire, though.

    I also think he doesn’t need to use a gateway. All he would have to do is fade in/out. Naturally lately he’s been a glorified freight hauler. But being able to go somewhere without a prior link sure would help out right now getting everyone back home. I’m fairly certain he can come up with something if everyone will give him some time to think about it.

    Hmm, that sparked an idea. Tom needs a workroom to do these experiments and stuff. Also probably wouldn’t hurt to have Phaestus give him a tutorial on the World Gate.
