Talk:Nomad

Race
Are you sure he is a human? He could be an elf knowing the Soul Wars Island is west of Tirannwn. His hood could also be covering his elf ears if he is an elf. 07:41, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Well there's no way of knowing because I doubt that Jagex will tell us. ≈   Dbzken  (Talk) (Contribs)(Edits)   ≈ 08:21, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Title?
Is Nomad his title or his name? If the former, props to Jagex for a Crysis reference. :D WWTDD? 21:24, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Generaly a Nomad is a person who wanders from place to place insted of having a permanent home. I have never seen or heard anybody with the name nomad, so I am guessing thats his title. 07:35, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The Game Guide addresses him as Nomad, instead of the Nomad. WWTDD? 14:10, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Still, knowing he has a camp, it is very likely that he is A nomad and that he wanders from place to place. Besides Nomad isent even a name. 04:51, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * "When you first arrive on the island, you will encounter Nomad and his imp familiar. Nomad will offer you a quick tour of the field of battle along with a brief explanation, or a book that explains the basics of fighting in the Soul Wars. " 06:59, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Nomad isn't a proper name for someone, however, a parent can probably name their child anything they want (Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin for example) I wouldn't know why they'd name him Nomad though. Axearmour1 06:52, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Chaos Elemental Suitcase
According to the people figuring out the new Chaos Elemental Suitcase in the Postbag from the Hedge, Nomad is mentioned in one of the hints:

Lucien -> You've been waiting for Lucien's whereabouts, Nomad is too frightened. [Blue Note deciphered using shorthand writing]

Nomad is frightened of what? Is he a Mahjarrat too? Is this why he's gathering souls.. to become stronger?

Should this be mentioned in the article? --Madmarkx 10:02, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm also rather interested in the fact that Nomad may be a Mahjarrat. In the suitcase, the sheet of paper titled HARDENS SOUTH is signed zzz. Zimberfizz's signature, anyone? During the Soul Wars Tutorial, the imp tells us that Nomad is obsessed with getting as many souls as he can into the Soul Obelisk (which he built himself!) Nomad may indeed be gathering souls in preparation for the upcoming ritual. Also, the graphical update he just received makes him look more mysterious... more Mahjarrat-like. 14:24, December 23, 2009 (UTC)

i agree- perhaps the first hints of wgs part 2? wgs 1 hints started coming out years before the quest came out.

Week of January 11
The update for this week involves Nomad. Perhaps we'll finally get to see whether he is a Mahjarrat or not... 17:02, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
