Nanamo's role in the future

[Morningstar1337]

This is a speculation thread about U'dah's current sultana. I think she will have a more active role later in the storyline, especially concerning Teleiji and the Syndicate. The question how will the recent turn of events affect her in the long run, and what this means for Ul'dah and maybe the rest of Eorzea?

[NoloeTazier]

With the Sultana's brother Teledji being a member of the Syndicate and the Syndicate's main ambitions being gil and power. I always thought a sibling dispute would happen, but I expected Lord Lolorito to be the first to try and vie for the power in Ul'dah. Whether or not Teledji has an Ascian behind him will remain to be seen, but with the Garleans in "ruins" it's the perfect chance for him to strike and try to seize power. This is why I enjoy Ul'dah compared to Gridania and Limsa, makes for good drama. Of course realistically Admiral Merlwyb should be facing the Gauntlet (I think that's the name of the event to choose the next Admiral) but I doubt we'll see her in anything threatening her power relatively soon lol.

Noloe Teledji is not the sultana's brother

All we need is a failed assassination plot against Nanamo, to finally pissed her off real bad and suddenly she become a terrifying persona or lets just say Nanamo is WoW's Jaina Proudmoore before the destruction of Theramore and we need a megalomaniac Garrosh style to trigger Nanamo's "mature" personality

Wouldn't 1.0 Darnus be considered a "Garrosh" technically? I'm only starting to get into the SoO storyline but didn't Darnus call down Dalamud against the will of the empire in the first place? Much like how Garrosh started creating a shitstorm (using the Sha's Heart) against Thrall's vision for the Horde?

Aside from that, I could never see Nanamo's character go from innocent to psychotic (with good reason) like Jaina did, but who would be a person so close to her that his/her death would cause them to snap? Besides Raubahn

[Alenore]

Garrosh was the leader of the Horde at that point, so not really. Many orcs were okay with his vision too, and were ready to do anything to fight the alliance and kill all those who stood in their way.
Nael on the other hand was allowed to cast down Meteor, but Gaius was against it and so "helped us" figuring out what was happening because he didn't want to conquer a wasteland.

As for Jaina, this is totally different. She's one of the strongest archmage in Azeroth, and was betrayed by people she allowed in Dalaran in the first place. Right now, Ala Mhigan refugees aren't going to detonate a mana bomb empowered by the most powerful arcane artifact in the world, eh. Besides, she'd have a hard time summoning a tsunami to destroy the opponent city ;o

WoW and FF settings are so different in so many ways, you can't really compare them.

And what is this related to Nanamo's role? pls dont go away from the main tpic

[Lucke]

I'm hoping for a full on civil war between the royalists and the monetarists. We'll see where Raubahn's loyalties truly lie. As much as I would dislike seeing it happen, it would make a good story for Raubahn to betray the Sultana and join the Monetarists. Only you and the Sultansworn stand in their way. You'd have to fight Raubahn to protect the Sultana. Doubt that happens, because what would happen to the Flames? What if you are a member of the Flames, do you have to fight them? oooooooooo this could get exciting.

Hope it doesn't happen, I hope if a civil war does come, Raubahn will use the Flames to protect the Sultana. The way the mini-story of Ul'dah is going, it could be a very interesting story. She's losing power, I think she'll have no choice but to remove the Syndicate by force.

[Bauti]

The rest of the sindicate members are courrupt, they have interesting in coin and power. But could they be compared as Teledji? Maybe lorolito us a asshole that have more interest on his money than the necesitis of the people, but making treason to the sultana and specialy to Ul'dah? I doubt that could happen

[Yumi_umi]

Could be civil war but then again could be lalafell jersey shore.
Who knows.. Only yoshi p knows.
