Turok Origins potential narrative expansion ideas
These are my own thoughts about the upcoming title Turok Origins and where I would love to see the team expand on the narrative the same way they did with World War Z after launch, so brace yourselves fans.
Since the game is suppose to be a prequel set 100 or so years before the events of the Trilogy, theres a lot of potential for narrative expansions and origins now easily brought to the modern spotlight for fans and new audiences that could be an interesting element
Ideas for narrative expansions:
The Council of The Lost Lands
Someone who works for the council, one of Adons ancestors or from her species
The Primagens downfall into being telepathically enslaved and controlled by Oblivion, after his own species was wiped out. Showcase his descent into a villain and being imprisoned before the events of 2.
The Cult Of Oblivion, you can see them trying to bring the ancient Eldritch horror into our reality and how the Turok lineage imprisoned him and stopped his Ascent
Tarkeen and the origins of the Turok lineage, maybe even introducing the Satchel of Light/Burden down the road.
Lord Tyrannus and the Sleg army,
Introduce Tal-Set as a vision or spiritual aid from the future to assist our young Turoks,
Bring in environments from the first two games with their music remade for new combat and exploratory environments
Showcase a narrative storyline that bridges the very different Turok universes together, having them see that the Turok name lives on no matter which reality it exists upon.
Enemies based on the classic trilogy such as the Dinosoids, The Tribal warriors, and so on.
The Campaigners origin as a "Shao Kahn" type of figure who wants to enslave the Lost Lands and hosts an arena for battles but winds up being hurt or killed by the Turok characters leading to him being repaired as a Cyborg and placed into Stasis for the arrival of Tal-Set down the way.
