The 7 heroes

[Thorveim]

Searched everywhere, but couldnt find it... Can anyone make a list of the 7 heroes names, or at least the 5 living ones? Im kinda puzzled that Old Ten doesnt seem to appear anywhere after the berserker intro...

So...I'm a little confused too. (Sorry, I know you posted this last year but I was just thinking about this and poking around and then I saw you so I thought 'hey! I might as well answer')

If I'm correct, the official heroes are...

Cerian ('dead' in backstory, most likely the Dark Mage now)
Balon (dead in backstory)
Manovich (Hennesys guy, critical condition)
Wolf Heart (dead in storyline)
Luanna (alive! yay!)
Asimov (also critical condition)
Ten (off somewhere doing something)

...and Winn Stilton.

This is why I was poking around...doing the storyline again for the last burning event, Winn Stilton was, in fact, mentioned more than once as being one of the Seven Heroes, by both Einos and Allon, I think. HOWEVER! Old Ten was mentioned to actually be one of the Seven Heroes, and he also looks to be the one in the intro and in the statue of the Seven Heroes that got destroyed. Still, the only place where he's actually referred to as one of the Seven is by the Berserker and Lilin, off in a remote island. No one from Victoria Island seems to know who he is.

So yeah, I'm confused too. We have eight heroes mentioned, but we're told there's supposed to be seven. And Stilton's not in the merch (the statue). So either (A) the creators committed a major oversight or (B) I call conspiracy.

...so since here's as good a place as any, here's my (and my siblings) conspiracy theories! One is that Ten and Stilton could be the same person, and they were leading a double life for all this time, and he's missing because he's dead. However, this seems unlikely, as Ten seems to have been in the picture in Rien all this time, and the Council specifically sent a letter to get him to come back.

My stronger theory is that they are different people, but they made a deal of some sort. It seems highly probable that the Seven Heroes are all really old, making them older than much of the rest of our cast. Perhaps, maybe, Ten wanted to leave. He had a conflict with the other Heroes or the Council or something, or was just tired, and he decided to go off on his own, get married, have kids, live his own life. And thus, he swapped titles. Stilton could also have been in the picture. Maybe they looked similar enough that people could see the statue and be like 'oh, that's a young Winn Stilton'. We've never actually seen art of him. So, Stilton 'became' one of the Heroes, so that Ten could live in peace without people looking for him. Everyone, for whatever reason, decided to go with it, and the younger population doesn't know the difference. Einos might be one who also knows the truth, but he still goes along with the story anyways.

So...you didn't ask for my theories, but here you go. Merry Christmas :)
