Purple Squid Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 The man who gives Raz the True Psychic Tales or whatever? Why? I've started thinking about it and I can't come to a conclusion... do you think it might be specified later in the future of man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smon Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Hey... that bugged me too! As near as I can tell it was Oleander recruiting children for his diabolical plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Squid Posted September 2, 2005 Author Share Posted September 2, 2005 He was tall and thin. Oh, you know, the guy who gives Raz the comic in his first memory vault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prosky Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 i'll tell you what...I asked Tim at the release party and he was sealed like a vault. No answer as far as i know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Squid Posted September 2, 2005 Author Share Posted September 2, 2005 Dang. Must be important, uber secret, OR HE DOESN'T KNOW. Perhaps it was SO mysterious it eluded even him. ooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahnee Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 i'll tell you what...I asked Tim at the release party and he was sealed like a vault. No answer as far as i know. Â Hmm. Very suspicious. Â You know, I wondered about this myself a while ago. And I think I can say with 97% certainty that that isn't Oleander. The shape of the head is right, but the moustache is slightly off (Oleander's has a single, loose curl at the end, the Shadowy Figure's has a much tighter curl to it. And yes, I did think about this way too much, thanks.), and the figure's just much too tall to be Oleander. Unless he was wearing stilts, for some inexplicable reason. Â I've got a theory that it's a Galochio or one of the "many enemies" Raz's father mentioned...someone who has a vested interest in Raz becoming a Psychonaut for some reason (presumably because that would work in their favor, although I have no idea how). Either way, I don't think it's Oleander, whoever it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I HAVE thought of the Gelachio theory--it makes more sense, I guess. Somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Jasper was kinda annoying until you realise, this is all inside someones head, pretty much anything can happen. Â As for the guy who give Raz the thing, I don't think he's hugely important, but if they did a sequel, they may build on him a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Squid Posted September 2, 2005 Author Share Posted September 2, 2005 Sure its important-- that's why Raz ran away! I'd like to see it built on--if not, there's always fanfiction. =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 No, I meant I doubt Schafer had any other purpose for him than to simply be the guy who gave Raz the comic, but if there was a sequel, Tim may build on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Squid Posted September 2, 2005 Author Share Posted September 2, 2005 I agree with you, there. He could've just been some creepy comic-giving maniac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dipstikk Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 It could be some wandering psychic who took notice of Raz's powers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray the Chao Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I'm pretty sure it IS Morceau Oleander judging by the mustache(see the brochure Raz is looking at) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Squid Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 Still-- Oleander didn't know anything about Raz during the first cutscene. He was generally shocked by Raz's mental defense. And we all know Oleander can't act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElusiveSpoon Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Perhaps another piece to the Galochio theory. Did any one else notice the Galacios poster in the meat circus? The similarity in names seems a bit suspect, especially since they are using a crystal ball, something typically associated with gypsies and psychics. It's hard to tell in the poster, but in the figment (the first one in the figment viewer) it looks like the central guy has a mustache. Though the poster has them marked as dead. Also, I'm pretty certain the Aquato's are Raz's family. Â Oh, and don't forget this random mustached guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banjewhype Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Who the heck is that random mustached guy? Is he in some hidden art in the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smon Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 My theory is Raz's family's favorite power pre-curse was Hydrokinesis. Offering a bit of irony, also some Galochios are no doubt still alive, out to crush Raz's family and circus reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Or some other waterbased psychic power that will undoubtedly become unearthed in a later episode of Raz's story. Like the ability to breath underwater...or hold his breath for ten minutes. Â That would be awsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray the Chao Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Raz's full name is undoubtedly Razputin Aquato. That's his dad in the bottom right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smon Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I call him Dmitri... it just seems to fit in my mind that a man named Dmitri would have a child named Razputin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
