Broaden category

Should this be opened to characters from the CotP afterlives and ToKW if they meet the requirements? Lacrossedeamon (talk) 10:01, June 15, 2020 (UTC)

Recategorize

I think this category should be for the simulations themselves: Elysium, Underworld, Atlantis. But also Valhalla, the Egyptian afterlives, the kingdom of United States, and possibly even Asgard, Jotunheim, and Svartalfheim. The characters in said places should them be categorized as "simulacra" instead of being placed here. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 00:17, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

FWIW I agree (along with broadening the additional cat. to include other purely simulated entities* like Balor and the Shaun AI) *not including the Animus. Vetinari^{(Appointment)} 14:20, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Well Balor isn't purely simulated given he is a IRL mythological figure and I'm not sure AI would count either but otherwise someone like Khui (Aten) would be included. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 09:48, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Balor's no more tangible than Ratatosk as far as we know. Why would the characters Eivor meets drinking a potion in Ireland be different from those in England? Vetinari^{(Appointment)} 03:17, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

So yeah this needs more discussion and clarification. Looking at what's included currently I'd say Charon doesn't fit given my understanding of what this category was meant for. I thought it was for individuals who show up in these instances who don't have reflections in the real world whether explicitly tangible or only via mythology. Like Hades isn't on here even though we've only seen him in Aletheia's simulations. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 05:03, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

I was about to say I agree entirely with your proposal, but on second thought, wouldn't the categories also include every place from New York City to Florence and Rome and the Caribbean and everyone from Haytham to Ezio and Altaïr and Evie, etc.? Any place or anyone who has ever appeared in an Animus section? Sol Pacificus^(Cyfiero) 05:40, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
