I was looking through the March of Machines set again, and while seeing Zhalfir and Kamigawa again are going to be interesting, though I think the Ikorian invasion is going to obviously overshadow anything from the Phyrexians.

But of all the planes I want to see the aftermath of its has to be Theros.

All five of the major gods got turned and likely destroyed, so what might have happened since. I imagine Ephara has risen in prominence but I do wonder what else if anything has built out the pantheon. Are there any planes y’all want to see?

Like I imagine Jace’s BS is gonna be stopped, but what happens to all the beings he’s created?

I saw someone say that they expect at least the major players to “fuse” with their doubles.

But i understand we don’t know how much of the Echoverse has been built out.

Hexhaven is the obvious facet. Like is it just gonna vanish? Fuse with Strixhaven?

What are your expectations? It seems like much of the baseline of the regular reality remains unaltered in the Echoverse. For example pretty sure the Ravnica guilds are the same Ral was just Orzhov instead of Izzet, right?

About where certain character arcs are going, or plot points we will see in the future, regarding Campaign 4?

It's been a bit, and I've been thinking about what I expect to happen down the line in the campaign, and was wondering if anyone else has any desires or ideas they'd like to share.

Right Character Driven Stuff:

• Julien having a cold open with Thimble or alone where he lays out his greviences with "his shadow"
• More hints that Tyranny has feelings for Wick.
• Spicy interactions between all the new party members.
• Azune possibly slipping when it comes to the line he is walking between the Halovars and Einfasens.
• Someone else dies.
• Travis will either play another Beastfolk, or another ancestry we have yet to see in Araman. Gnome Blood Hunter, though I do gotta wonder if Blood Hunters exist in Araman...

Story Reveals:

• Aranessa and Thjazi have a child, but they've been trapped in Faerie.
• Zebani wasn't just overlooked due to her personality, but because she isn't an Aasimar like her brothers.
• Primus's unraveling may push some of the Tachonis away from him, widening the schism in the family; not sure how the party would react to this.
• The Cormorays will be revealed to be slavers. Their powers derive from Genies, and there is a pretty classical depiction of that sort of relationship.
• Harondus will be revealed to be an ally of the Tachonis/Halovar, desiring to be the head of House Einfasen.
• The Druids have their own skeletons in their closets.
• Royce's bannerman, or at least some will attempt to betray Aranessa for her failures.
• We will see a Giant.
• We will see another Dragon.
• What are some other big-name mythical creatures... uh, a sphinx!

So what do y'all got?

Greetings, tis I the localish lore fiend, I’ve posted about Lost Omens/other lore updates in Pathfinder 2E for a while so figured I’d bring my archivist skills here, for those curious about the lore but can’t afford the book or uh… well won’t due to recent events.

Of note, I am a lore guy, not a rule guy, so this is pure story stuff. Hope y’all enjoy.
