Blade Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 Sigh...okay, this topic is getting off track here. Regarding what Hecatom said, I suggest you do a little more research on where the word "Legion" originates from. The Bible was translated into Greek/Aramaic originally, so I'm not going to push the topic further, only to say that Legion means "many", it doesn't refer to an individual person. Regarding how the world of GG is treated/politics/social understandings: Well first and foremost there are a lot of missing countries/nations that have been trying to recover since the Crusades against the Gear Revolt. In particular is A-Country an amalgamation of countries from the west (most likely what remains of America), but also Zepp who is trying to salvage what remains of Black Tech in order to uncover the secrets of the past that seem to have crumbled away since the discovery of Magic as a limitless energy resource. Then of course there's the IPF, internationally recognized between nations, yet still undermined by the PWAB and several companies surrounding it. Of course you have the Assassin's Syndicate, who works with various remnants of PWAB and the Mafia. And lastly there are the little known areas of the world where rogue gears exist as well as the Makai (that is to say those like Izuna and beings from the Underworld). Understanding the workings of these organizations and how they clash is a little beyond me at this point, but what I am aware of is that there are several organizations trying to replicate Gear Technology via research of Black Tech, as well as gaining access to what is known as the "Backyard" which is supposedly where Magic research originated from (relating to the Underworld/Izuna again). Zepp is the most prominent at this point in the story mainly because of their activity: Potemkin, as you know, was a soldier-slave with an anti-desertion bomb strapped to his neck, his mission being to infiltrate the Sacred Order of Holy Knights' recruitment tournament and discover who was behind its initialization (namely Testament in his attempt to revive Justice). Shortly thereafter, Potemkin and Gabriel his superior take part in a massive revolt against the current Zepp regime and overthrow the government there. This results in placing Gabriel in the position of presidency of Zepp, with Potemkin as one of its head commanding officers/head of security. It is then established that Gabriel is trying to revise Zepp from the inside out, gathering intelligence from Black Tech, while trying to avoid use/abuse of Gear Technology. He has a standing relationship with the Assassin's Syndicate (Slayer), and is working towards a relationship with A-Country. Keep in mind that Zepp and A-Country utilized Gears solely as weapons for military deployment during former wars, and it wasn't until the "crusades" when Justice went and actively revolted that Gears were even considered a threat outside their own ordered commands. Fast forward a bit to GGXX and Gears are seen as WOMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction), and regardless of their sentience or not, are considered top priority to be destroyed/dismantled. Even rogue independent gears like Dr. Paradigm are considered WOMD, so human bias against gears is at an all time high. With this in mind, consider Ky Kiske's position, he's been the former captain of the Sacred Order, a leading officer in the IPF, and now nominated to be King of Illuria, an up and coming kingdom that apparently has a lot of "Gear Technology Stockpiles". Considering his political stance towards Gears as well as treating Illuria as a haven towards Gears, it's likely he may make a few enemies in the near future, since not every government in humanity will agree with his policies, since many still don't think of Gears as "living beings" and more as "weapons".
Sunnyday Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 thanks for the info blade. I planned to make some story's based on the guilty gear world. this info is great, thanks. I hope we don't stess you too much with our questions. and @ hatred edge. thanks for the thoughts.
Hecatom Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 ok i will only stablish some points Regarding what Hecatom said, I suggest you do a little more research on where the word "Legion" originates from. The Bible was translated into Greek/Aramaic originally, so I'm not going to push the topic further, only to say that Legion means "many", it doesn't refer to an individual person.. truth, the actual meaning of legion is many, or squad Let me also note a other misunderstanding. not sure if it is complety correct so please correct me if I'm wrong. did you guys remenber how the drawings of satan that where maked in the beinging of the medievil ages? satan being drawed as someone with a goats head , human thoso , and goat legs: you are talking of Bafemoth the acient god of nature, it was common transform the gods of previous religons into demons for the new ones, an example is the serpent in the genesis, it was the previous god in the mesopotamian culture 10,000 bc (and all the genesis is based in the mitologies of gilgamesh by the way ) after that said, thanx for the info blade
Blade Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 Okay guys: http://dustloop.com/forums/showpost.php?p=259253&postcount=1189 That's my post on GGXXAC+ Story Mode summaries. @Sunnyday: No, it's okay, I'm just showing off my GG Nerdiness.
Blade Posted May 31, 2008 Posted May 31, 2008 I'm posting this here because it contains a lot of Character-specific info and little pieces of unconfirmed facts (I don't know all the sources). But if anyone's willing to translate each individual character's pages/profiles/info, we could shed more light on the backstories of each GG Character. http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUILTY_GEAR_%28%E3%82%B7%E3%83%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%82%BA%29 Also, this page seems to contain some interesting info, but I haven't been able to discern it. http://id20.fm-p.jp/29/ilyalen/index.php?module=viewdc&action=plist&hpid=ilyalen&stid=8&idx=26 I recall somewhere finding info regarding the name of Chipp's blade. If anyone can find this info, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Yggdrasill Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Well..Firefox's page translator gives a really bad translation of it, can't understand most of it because of how things are worded in Japan. The stuff I can figure out with my meager knowledge are things I already know about. :scared:
Lou_Cypher Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Just some odd thinking of mine: Ky = Leonidas Dizzy? = Gorgo Testament = Theron Something like that from 300.
sweetvids Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Just some odd thinking of mine: Ky = Leonidas Dizzy? = Gorgo Testament = Theron Something like that from 300. I didn't know Leonidas was a girl. :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck:
CatNoir Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Just some odd thinking of mine: Ky = Leonidas Dizzy? = Gorgo Testament = Theron Something like that from 300. What the...? :psyduck: :psyduck: Ky is not that muscular... Never insult Leonidas ever. Okay...
Wendy Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 I didn't know Leonidas was a girl. :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck: :psyduck:
Blade Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Never insult Leonidas ever. Never insult Ky! That goes for you too Wendy!
Wendy Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Never insult Ky! That goes for you too Wendy! sorry for ky fans But when i read about ky=leonidas,I could not imagine this freak idea This is the reason for the creation of this image
Overture Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 it's true. King Ky said so in Guilty Gear 2: Overture. the maiden of the grove has been proven to be Dizzy since Ky's and Dizzy's first endings in Guilty Gear Accent Core Plus proves their relationship Im late, but... Wasnt stated like 1000 times that the guilty gear story after GGX (or maybe just GG, i dont remember) wasnt related AT ALL to Overture? So whatever happens in that universe, doesnt count in the Overture one?
Wendy Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Im late, but... Wasnt stated like 1000 times that the guilty gear story after GGX (or maybe just GG, i dont remember) wasnt related AT ALL to Overture?

Hatred Edge Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Never insult Ky! That goes for you too Wendy! WUT?! Ky is an abomination of man. How can he have knee caps that are bigger than his biceps? No wonder Sol holds back on him when they fight. Ky's fragile, skeleton like frame cannot take heavy blows.*continues to hate Ky* sorry for ky fans WUT? Ky doesn't have fans. He has a teacup collecter's club. Some DL members are premuim members.
Wendy Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 WUT? Ky doesn't have fans. He has a teacup collecter's club. Some DL members are premuim members. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? This comment scares me
Blade Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I'm Ky's fan...always have been always will be, Damatte iru yo, Hatred Edge. Ky always gets the butt of shit just because he's thinner than other characters or people assume he's "one of those bishounen" types...bullshit I say...don't make me Zwei Voltage you. And I'll have you know Teacups can be worth thousands of dollars if you find the right ones...guess you never watched Antiques Road Show before...
Dizzy Kiske Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 I'm not a Ky fan. I'm a Ky lover! Ky is such a cute bishounen. He is the reason why girls like Guilty Gear and he is also Sol's verbal punching bag. Dizzy has good taste in choosing boys. ... Hatred Edge is right about Ky having a skeleton like frame *points to Ky's ISUKA pose art*
Dizzy Kiske Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 If Ky didn't exist, there would be no Guilty Gear: 1. Sol would not defeat Justice. 2. Ky's death led to the end of humanity. 3. Dizzy would've been evil if Ky didn't tutor her to live as a human. 4. Sol and Dizzy would be rivals. 5. Sol wouldn't be cool unless he bullies Ky and constantly calls him a "boy" "kid" and "twerp"
Hatred Edge Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 And I'll have you know Teacups can be worth thousands of dollars if you find the right ones...guess you never watched Antiques Road Show before... Yet Ky stills wears his Holy Order uniform(which is WORSE than Sol's*awesome*) and is still poor. Stop collecting teacups Ky. It's making you poor... Bet money he didn't end up being a king because he was some great leader either.(Killed the former king and blamed it on Sol no doubt...) If Sol didn't exist, there would be no Guilty Gear(Blade knows this more than anyone right? RIGHT?!: 1. Ky cannot defeat Justice. 2. Sol's death would lead to the end of humanity cuz he's the ONLY one who can kill Justice. 3. Dizzy would've been evil if Johnny didn't take her in and she didn't meet May*Ky's a pedo and fails at life>_<*. 4. Sol and Dizzy would be rivals at a awesome, thrilling game of fish and chips. 5. Ky would STILL be a loser because Sol's badassness wouldn't keep him in check. Why Dizzy Kiske... I didn't know you thought like that? You're cool in my book!!!!*hugs*
