No, I remember this...He does call the Demon Lord by the name of Raelag. He gets a little cross...just can't remember where.

He?  I thought it was a Shadow Matriarch.  There is indeed a cutscene involving one but I don't see any mention of "Raelag" there.

EDIT:  Aha!  Found it!  It was embedded in the map itself, not as an external dialog scene.

Quote:
Witch: Agrael!  Such a pleasure. Or should I say Raelag?

Agrael: Silence!  I know your dirty secrets as well, sister of the Soulscar.  You should know that silence is golden, and loose tongues can be lethal.


That settles that, then.  I was wrong.  Happy?!

my opinions

well I haven't finished the campaigns of the expansions yet so here come my opinions of the original game's caracters:

If you haven't played the campaign do not read this
Isabell a bad ally is worse than a thousand enemies:
Isabel is the living evidence that you don't have to be a great hero to be the main caracter of a homm game, she's the most hatred caracter, and she possibly deserves it since she relies in everyone and allways takes wrong desisions what resulted on many civil wars, the death of her lover ,the en of the griffin dynasty and passibly of the hole world(she's the mother of the dark messiah.)

Nicolai a hole life of good desisions and a bad desision is not allways a good balance[/i:
Nicolai has allways been a great king, a better monarch than his wife and his mother even when he was a child since he let godric exile markal and the two women were fooled by him. At the start of hommV Nicolai manages to put isabel to safety and as for what we know he was winning(beatrice(biara)saw this with her magic but then lied)Isabel fails i her attempt to help him and he has to come back from war to rescue her from the demons and as a result of that agrael kills and after he rans away with no toopes(some where killed by nicolai and others banished with the heart of the griffin) he take the worst desision he could take HE CROWNED ISABEL.

Godric the great old knight who always makes what is right and always Is right:
Godric always says what everyone thinks but he's too loyal too defy his queen if it is not absolutly nessesary his only mistake was to be too obidient when Isabel(wrongly)states something is necessary(he disobeys her too late).

Agrael/raelag Dude i preferred you as a demon
when you first see agrael he is a charismatic foe who imprisones isabel and gets his ass kicked by godric and Isabel together until he gets he's(undefeatable)army and makes you realize that the hole campaign is about how you try to save the guy he just have killed(which is possibly your fault since you called him after the empire was safe)then he say's that when he killed all these humans he was on the good side and not happy with that he kills a great amount of elves and all these things he did were only to be with a woman that will no live more than the half of agraels life, and let's not forget that she was going to be married WITH A HUMAN.

Markal This is the same kind of guy as Sandro:
Markal is a cunning and over ambitious snow who wants no more than TAKE OVER THE WORLD and no surprisingly is killed but not before manipulating Isabel(what is not that dificult),taking revenge frome those who kiked his(and his master's)ass in the past and making a puppet from nicolai cursing his soul and taking control over the empire.

Cyrus The coward who never helps his friends
Cyrus is a jerk, but a funny one i have to say, laughing at Godric's face provoquing Alexei's dead and Nicolai's(he could have helped and Nicolai would be alive.)he ended in the only way he deserved.

Alaron A Cyrus by mistake:
He made the same as Cyrus but in a diferent way,he is not a coward as Cyrus was but He din't either follow Alexei to a possible end for the demon becouse he was scared too and he didn't help(on last mission of 1st campaign)the empire(i know no one really asked him but the result is the same).After all this I have to add that that Alaron also died by the hand of an undead army.

Findan The best warrior of the glourious elven country is a poet:
Findan is a hero who has to restore the"harmony" to Irollan.I've got a question,why does the story of Ashan say that the elves have never lost a war?they are allways losing before this point and is really that dificult to invade acountry of poets and "flowersniffers"? well Alaron's cowardy made the emerald dragons flee and Nicolai is kiking their asses so findan has to find them. when findan returns every elve general has died (including the"high" king)exept findan and two who are imprisoned, the capital and a great part of Irollan is under nicolai and markal's possesion(again, was it that difficult?)but this guy whose biography say's that he is more a diplomat and a poet than a warrior by taste and training makes what hundreds of well prepared elven generals(or hundreds of generals )could not he stops the invasion puts Nicolai to rest and with Godric and Zehir he kills Markal. OMG WHAT A POET.

Biara the succubus for exelence:
Biara is the loyal servant to the bad guy who helps him to make the good guys fall in his traps despite she is a good weapon for the soverign she loses every fight exept the one with Tieru-the one man army-.

Tieru The informer:
He's the kind of guy who knows everything but does nothing and obviously dies since he's a great danger(or he could be if i leaves from this stupid rock).

Zehir a Cyrus but not such a bad guy:
Zehir is the same kind of man as his father was,but Zehir knows that an ally can sometimes be really useful and he's not a coward with no heart.(I think you will see why i say he's like his father in some aspects if you play the game).I would say something more about him but his depolopement in the game is not as big as Isabel's since the other guys steal him the half of his  campaign.

AND THAT'S ALL MY FRIENDS, there will be more when i'll have finished the expansions.

After insulting all the characters I have to say that i enjoyed the game and i will be enjoying it for a long time

opinions

I don't know why but ican't change the last post so I will finish what I was saying in this one.

The Demon SoverignThe bad guy
The demon soverign is guy who wants to kill everyone and everything but he has a "master plan" that was a success even if he lost the fight, what makes him look intelligent even if it could have failed in many ways(and it should).

VeyerAgrael's competitor... if you say so...
it is said that Veyer is Agrael's greatest competitor but I do not see why since he loses every battle.
And now the ranking

1st place for Godric and Agraelclap,clap...
Godric is the most intelligent and understandeble character we have here and Agrael/Raelag is also an awsome one who has the best dialogues.

2ond place for Markalyou were close
he's intelligent, manipulative and powerful, but he loses his brain when he thinks he can take over the world.

3rd place Zehir and Nicolaithe last of the medals
Zehir would be also in the second place but i needed to know more about him for that,btw what I know about him is great.
about Nicolai, I know that some of you hate him but that's not my case, he was a good king and a really dificult foe anyway, i might have simpatized with him more if I had seen him more in action.

4th place for Biara, Findan, and The demon soverignBetter luck next time
Biara,Findan and th demon are not bad characters for me but they have the same problem, they are nothing special, the soverign is the classical big boss, biara his right hand and about Findan... he made great things but i don't really like his personallity.

IsabelI'm sorry but I find this inevitable
She's a normal woman with not a big brain  but noble blood and a really beatiful corpse(that combination makes her really dangerous for ahan)despite she's a good person she takes the wrong desisions that drive ashan to a possible cataclysm and the main reason why I give her that position is becouse the other ones are not enough devoloped in the game.

AND THAT'S ALL MY FRIENDS, there will be more when i'll have finished the expansions.

You can edit post when you login via Login line over the thread

And about Zehir - in expansion he also appears... and Godric... and Isabel... and Findan (single scenario)... and Raelag (I don't know how about english version but in polish his speech is terrible and that'a why I hate him and it isn't only thing why I hate him...)... so you should play expansions to learn these characters better (Zehir is really funny )

first of all, thanks for your reply, and about your opinions, what I say about Zehir is that I find him a great character but at the moment I can't rate him over nicolai since for what i saw in the campaiign they have the same problem(despite I have seen in internet some things about him that i liked),btw i am playing hammers of fate expansion and Zehir will have new competitors for the final ranking and I also missed freyda but she almost didn't appear and shes a main character in the expansion so I gave her a chance to surprise me.

and again thanks for your  help i'll try your advice now .

edition:I think it was for the flood thing.

well I've finished hammers of fate and for the moment these are my opinions about the new guys

DuncanA leader among the intelligent men and a ladies man
between these ones Duncan is my favorite, is intelligent enough to hate the normal Isabel(remember when you fight glen on the original, he was a general of Duncan)and hate even more The Biara-Isabel

WulfstanThe only good dwarf
this is a funny one who is great complement to Duncan,but one question, when the demons were about to destroy ashan in the first game what were the dwarfs doing? wulfstan is a border guard and helped Duncan in his rebellion but what about the other ones?

Laszlo and AlaricThe blood thirsties
Laszlo is a really funny "mad" man whose comments made laugh, he is so blood thirsty that he is makes desisions like suide his troops to kill the elfs(first mission(freyda stops him)but this brainless beast is really strong,i had some pproblems before i realize that i could make him lose all his tuns with Duncan. Alaric in the other side is like Laszlo with a brain, he's not so funny but I find him a better character.

Freydaa mix between Isabel and Godric
you might thing that with that comment here I liked Freyda but I think she's like Godric in the way that she's not a "funny" character but a noble one, in the other hand, it's obvious that she looks like Isabel and is a woman warrior who starts the first campaign against her own kind.

Ylaya and Thralsaii don't know what to tell about this ones...
I do not know what to say, she's a raelag without being character you can love, she's not a character, she's juust an instrument, you actually know nothing about her.
Thralsai is just the bad guy of Ylaya's stoy, a "traitor" who tries to change the clan's god to one who wants to destroy ashan.

I like Alaric in his own way, he tries to follow false queen Isabel and accept her every bidding by worshipping her in the most extraordinary ways, that until he finds out who Isabel really is(Biara) and his reaction to that is heartbreaking

I liked all the characters but I think they fell short of the potential they had.  For example Agrael's campaign should've focused on the inside tension in himself whether to remain with his evil overlord and have unlimited power, strength and influence or trade it away for the woman he loves.  Godric's character of being the righteous wise knight is well developed.  King Nicolai isn't shown to us as much.  He fights against 3 devils, then against a demon general and then dies.  I actually liked Isabel. Everyone hates her, but I admire the fact she goes out to war to defend her empire.  As well, I think she was justified to kill those peasants that don't join her army.  Thousands of citizens are slaughtered by beasts and they want to stay on their fields, it's cowardly. And she was only evilish because she was tricked by a necromancer.  I mean she is 19, I would expect her to be naive.

Raelag...

This reply is mostly for (or rather against) Elvin. Raelag didn't care about the world, then why didn't he accept Kha-Beleth's offer during the fight in C5M5? Why did he leave Isabel and go to look for Sareth in HoF? Why did he not return to Isabel later and instead joined the Dragon Knights?
Raelag didn't kill the elves and humans to be with Isabel, he killed them to survive. If he didn't kill humans, the humans and Kha-Beleth together will kill him. If he didn't kill elves, he wouldn't have got to Tieru and the Demon Messiah would have had the world. The Triumvirate of Godric, Findan and Zehir would never have been enough to defeat Kha-Beleth
His actions were influenced partly by his care for the world and partly by Isabel. But on the whole, he's still not that selfish.
By the way, Raelag is probably the strongest commander. He and Isabel fought their way through Sheogh themselves. Not an easy feat.

My favorite character is Raelag, but nothing should be concluded from my posts as I have a habit of sticking up to another one's cause even if he is my enemy.

I never actually finished the first campaigns, either; I'd lost my old progress, unfortunately.

I did, however, find Isabel to be an interesting character. She does have a lot of blood on her hands, especially in the Necromancer's story, but I found it intriguing how they showed how having an incompetent, and impulsive, ruler can make a nation plummet. The fact that she was that way also made her very human, as opposed to Godric and Freya, whom seemed to me to fall under the white knight mold. They were neat, but so far, they also fell a little flat.


As for Agrael, I'd always thought that he was a jerk. I wanted so badly to play as Gilraen and fight against him.

Ressurect!


Wulfstan. Good guy, good dwarf. A man of his word with humor.


Duncan. His interactions with Wulfstan are hillarious most of time and I like him overall. I think he looks a bit like Aragorn and Ivan.


Agrael/Raelag. Doing good and doing right is not always the same. You can see this one better on H6 but since I am already on it on this thread...
I also like, what is he doing for the woman he loves. That is passion!


Freyda/Godric. I kinda like the "White Knight" attitude from both of them. Godric having more of it, I think.


Ylaya. I still can not decide if her offer to Duncan was serious or a joke. And she is looking good!


Arantir. One man, one mission! I just wish, they would have used him to build up the cult of the spider goddess instead of Belketh. (He would have been very fitting for this IMO)


Kujin. Someone on this thread mentioned her big, beatiful, blue eyes? Something like that, but I second it anyway.
And also for the one point where she is praying to Father Sky/Mother Earth to forgive her for her helping towards Gotai.
(Been a while since I played this missions the last time, so I do not remember it clearly.)



I think, that are all of them.
