W'rkncacnter: Difference between revisions

Whether W'rkncacnter is a singular entity or an alien race is unclear. Marathon 2: Durandal contains many mythological texts of the S'pht, but they are inconsistent on this point. It is possible that the W'rkncacnter are a race that is represented as a singular entity in the S'pht mythos, much like their mythological character Yrro has been speculated to be a singularization of the Jjaro. [[Durandal]]/[[Thoth]] in Marathon Infinity describes the legendary W'rkncacnter as having distinct identities. Another theory is that the W'rkncacnter is both a multiple and singular entity, in some incomprehensible way (possibly multiple manifestations of a single entity). Due to the contradictory descriptions, it is entirely plausible that the W'rkncacnter is a hive mind or functions in a fractal way, possessing multiple bodies/incarnations that can either act separately or as a single entity and would be identical on any given scale. Given the being's chaotic nature, almost anything is possible.

== Trivia ==
*There is evidence to suggest that the 'Dreaming God' in Pathways Into Darkness may, in fact, have been a W'rkncacnter. This would be consistent with the fact that the Jjaro also appeared in Pathways Into Darkness (albeit only in the manual). Also their method of "proper disposal" was going to be the tried and true method of trapping them in the sun or another nearby star.
*In Destiny, the Deep is described as "the waves, which are battles, and the battles are the waves." It is [https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/14tg4mm/is_the_traveler_from_destiny_a_wrkncacnter/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 theorized] that the Traveler is a W'rkncacnter or Dreaming God.
