Talk:Dark Lord

Move request

Given that this character's actual name has been known since TAG1, it doesn't make much sense to keep calling them "the Nameless One". I've suggested moving it to "Dark Lord" as that is what he is known by throughout TAG.

This should be uncontroversial, but I've added a move request in case anyone has a different opinion. Gauss (talk) 11:32, 28 March 2021 (CDT)

Should make it easier for people to find. --109.157.196.35 16:52, 12 January 2022 (CST)

Remaining links to Nameless One

The remaining links to Nameless One should stay as such, in case id finishing waffling on them being the same entity as the Dark Lord. Those remaining links are specifically about plot points which refer to the Nameless One alone, without any reference to "Dark Lord" or "Davoth". --Quasar (talk) 10:12, 12 August 2022 (CDT)

Aranea imperatrix is NOT the Lord of the Fourth Age

Two Codex entries deny this possibility:

• "Tablets, retrieved from the Great Steppe in the UAC Automated Survey of 2143, suggest that the Barons of Hell are the current Royal Guard of the unknown Dark Lord of the fourth age." —This is before the Spider Mastermind exists.
• "When the gate is opened, in the fourth age, when we have risen and the masters have shown us the path, she will be come. A great blessing will be given to the key holder, for they will become one with the master, and in that holy union the power of the dark priest will be unleashed upon the heretics of the Penumbral Plain. The Aranea Imperatrix. Carried in the mind of all who follow, fed from the blood of those who fell, made with bone of rock, iron, steel and sinew. A mighty god to rule over all other gods. One become two become legion." —The "key holder" is unambiguously Olivia Pierce. She must have union with the pre-existing "master" - the Dark Lord, as evidenced from all other entries - this is shown in game as the lightning that strikes Olivia just before her transformation. The same lightning strikes the Cyberdemon to revive it once it warps to Hell earlier.

Edit rejected. --Quasar (talk) 23:49, 23 March 2026 (CDT)
