maybe it was janos who...

[bish]

hi

i just had a thought this morning, but i may get told to shut up here because it's another 'how is vorador alive in BO2' thread.

anyway, here goes, i think it may have been janos that resurrected vorador after his beheading.

Janos is now alive again after the heart of darkness was returned to him by raz. even though janos is being possessed by the hylden i think he still can exert some sort of self control, as you see when he talks to raz, telling him to end it. also mortanius is also able to exert self control aswell.

raz obviously doesn't, and janos flies away. that is all you see of him for the rest of the game.

now this is where it could be helpful. it is after this point and after vorador has been executed that i think janos ressurects him. once a vampire is killed, as far as i've seen in the previous games, their killers (human or otherwise) just leave them where they killed the vampires. not really intersted in another dead vampire body.

now janos finds voradors dead body, and decapitated head (quite an important part), sticks them back together and says the magic words. hocus pocus. and, just like that, vorador is alive again.

ok. that really won't be exactly how it goes, but you get the picture.

any ideas? sorry if this has come up before, but i haven't seen it anywhere.

I dont think its possible.
In Blood Omen 2, We can see Janos bonded to the Mass. He cant even from the machine. I dare to say I dont think he can resurrect Vorador.

there must be a point from the end of defiance where janos flies off, to the point where he is first attched to the device.

remember, defiance ends at pretty much the same time as BO1, and between the end of BO1 and the start of BO2 is several hundred years. kain is unconscious for 2 hundred of those years also.

it is during this period that i think it would be possible.

Well, assuming that time travel had indeed included Vorador's execution, we can safely say that he was resurected at the time Kain was seeking to conquor Nosgoth. So, if we look at the destruction of the pillars as the year 0, then sometime before the year 200(DP) (destruction of the pilliars) is Vorador resurected.

We can also assume that it was sometime before 200 DP as well, because it was Vorador who created Kain's army.
