The conceptual image recently released with the January Update page has a artist's concept of what the Ancients look like.

Concept art of the Ancients - Shaping of Malu

The Ancients are similar to Gods in that they are the creators of the Maluian world.

If I am not mistaken. :geek:

Question for the devs. Do the ancients have a policy similar to the ancients in stargate (no interference) or the greek gods?

:idea:

I think I see a faint connection with info we already have.

Dark Echo (pic) - A complex manifestation of the remnants of an ancient people, the Dark Echo kind dwells neither in good or evil. They are an enigma to the Malu races; they float in between dimensions of reality as hushed onlookers of the world. Their appearance menacing, their motivations unclear.

The Dark Echo and the Ancients both have four limbs. Related? Maybe the DE are shadows of the Ancients? "Observers"?

Awesome! I don't know if I would feel happy or terrified to meet a god like this one! :o

Speaking of other, it would be cool if we could praise them and get buffs or something in return. Some sort of karma system could also be cool or something religios that has an impact on your character/world. I mean, you don't want to anger the gods!

Adding religious acts and such could be a bad thing and something that many would be against (if they refer it to real life and so on). But again, I think it could be cool and it would also make the game much "deeper"!

I won't post anymore about the Ancients as that is all lore reserved for in game goodness ;) but I did post the full concept in the Media section under concept art.

Cheers,
