VN Ren'Py SnowStorm [v0.9 DR] [GleenX Studio]

[kibaris]

I agree that she's a very good conniver and manipulator. Then again, how much brain power does it take to blow, suck, and backstab your way to the top?

in such a short period of time and without leaving any trace of her involvement until it whas to late? i would say a good amount ^^
She killed two leader out of three, turned Torsten greediness against him to discredit both WW and Sonja, all that while renforcing her own position and taking the leadership on BB's clan.

She also showed great adaptibily and anticipation by luring all people in the village to think that she was some jester even though she is the most dangerous one in the village, using Helga situation, a girl recently captured by her clan at her advantage to isolate and kill Ragnar, and also thanks to Torsten she could easily put the blame on Harek and using that later to discredit WW Clan and Sonja to take BB's clan leadership more easily.

She's was even able to turn Astrja intervention to her advantage, strengthened her authority and discredit Sonja and WW even more in the eyes of BB's clan in the process.
Only two people could see that something was wrong, Nox and Astrid, and out of the two, only Astrid could linked that to Torsten but she's was totaly powerless and couldn't do anything to stop the raid, and even her couldn't link Candrid to all that.

On top of that, she's still is a great warrior even if she probably loose in a fair fight against Astrja or Sonja (like everyone else in story so far) but unlike Astrid or Nox that could match her intellect or even be more smart, she isn't as vulnerable by herself.
So no she isn't just some slut that sucked her way to the top, you cannot do all that so efficiently without a good brain.

 

[Slick Bean]

MC is just another throbbing armed member she can suck into her harem.

I wish i have a harem path without candrid. I have to worry to get backed stab everyday

isolate and kill Ragnar

So no she isn't just some slut that sucked her way out to the top

She killed two leader out of three

taking the leadership on BB's clan.

She also seems to want and need MC as the patsy to front her dissent.
She gets by being the slut and bringing sluts to those she wants to manipulate,
Mc has to be such a happy power stripper for her to take such interest in him,
considering she keeps tabs on all fresh meat and loot trading through her village.

Well, she's definitley a smooth criminal. She also discredited the Bloody Bears in the eyes of the other clans. Before Candrid, the Bloody Bears had some respect as a soldier warrior clan. After Candrid, they became nothing more than petty bandit raiders. To become queen of the clan, she violated and destroyed the things that gave the clan dignity. Now she's queen of a clan that has no dignity at all. I don't see that as much of an accomplishment.

Respected by whom? not by Nox and the raven's ,she tells us from the start and several times what she think of them.
Torsten planned Ragnar's death , i hardly call that being respected.
One clan was already against them and the other had already a bad view of them, only Sonja was respected by Astrja but feared by the others , and Yrsa by Nox .
So Candrid schemes wont change much in that regard, all she did was breaking the balance beetween the 3 clan that will be unified in one banner later.

 

[Deleted member 1465339]

Well I hated Candrid before finishing her path today. Now I kind of just want the MC to decapitate, enslave, or otherwise sell her. Also I actually find it extremely hard to believe that out of all the girls banged so far she’s the one who turned out to be a virgin ok totally believable. Especially since her reasoning for still being a virgin seemed forced at best and no one seems to care for that in the VN.

On a different point will the sandstorm game become relevant or affect the story? I know we can make some choices about it at the beginning, but truth be told, I didn’t care for that game.

I agree that Torsten always viewed the Bloody Bears as a potential threat. But Nox did have some respect for them. She respected their "take what you want and need" philosophy, as opposed to the "buy, sell, and barter" philosophy of the White Wolves. Which she sees as unethical and immoral. It's true that Nox did look down on them as brutish and uncultured barbarians. But she also respected their strength, independence, and warrior way of life. At one time, she even considered making an alliance with them against the White Wolves. She put that idea on hold, because she felt that the Bloody Bears were still not refined or civilized enough for it yet. But the fact that she considered it, I think shows the level of respect that Nox had for them. HAD being the operative word.

Perhaps she developed her oral skill (and not precisely as orator if u know what i mean ) as a way to survived... And even if we go more serious... She faked her virginity.


With English subtitles... I hope for GleenXstudio taking history notes

She find them valuable but i wouldnt call that respect.
But i can agree that is still better than now when she basicaly antagonazing Astrja , and Nox beeing the complete opposite to Candrid would more likely side with WW than BB especially after Yrsa,"the only one to save from that clan" leaving BB's clan too.

Ironic, isn't it? Candrid indirectly achieved a diplomatic miracle. Thanks to her, the White Wolves and the Dark Ravens are now on semi congenial terms, and even have a little common ground with each other now.

Wow just wow didn't even know it was this serious (and no need for subs I speak Spanish) hahahah you just made my day

Uh uh, about how many centuries are we talking here? 100 or 200 years at least?!

 

[Jack Townsend]

Amazing, isn't it? Something that lasted a century or two, Candrid destroyed in a week or two. That's quite an accomplishment.

[WarriorSteel]

Are you pregnant or are you just planning to have one yet?

Are you sure you are in the right place buddy?

 

[IzumiggG]

Are you sure you are in the right place buddy?

I'm sorry, I think I couldn't be clear, I saw the pregnancy tag and decided to ask. I will rephrase... Is there a pregnancy in the game or are still planning to have one?*

 

[WarriorSteel]

I'm sorry, I think I couldn't be clear, I saw the pregnancy tag and decided to ask. I will rephrase... Is there a pregnancy in the game or are still planning to have one?*

Yes there is in the DR path

 

[Bombmaster]

I'm sorry, I think I couldn't be clear, I saw the pregnancy tag and decided to ask. I will rephrase... Is there a pregnancy in the game or are still planning to have one?*

Yea.
Atm One supernatural pregnancy.
And heavy implied another LI having Mc offspring.

How many belly bumps we are going to have or if the supernatural pregnancy is birthing a child or something else entirely.
Can't say.

 

[hitmebaby]

FFS stop making us replay the entire game every update lol

After Candrid, they became nothing more than petty bandit raiders. To become queen of the clan, she violated and destroyed the things that gave the clan dignity. Now she's queen of a clan that has no dignity at all.

I mean, it's not like WWs would be all that better off either; I'd imagine should the news of Torsten instigating Ragnar's assassination break, it's gonna be a huge blow to WW clan's dignity (not to mention the relation between Sonja & Astrja. They're on friendly terms now, but things would guarantee to turn frosty when Sonja finds out the truth).
Yes, Torsten acted on his own and doesn't reflect who Astrja, Astrid and Mathilda are in terms of morality, but that won't matter.

Heck, the only clan who I think will remain totally unscathed with Candrid's BB coup would be Nox and the DR, cause they've been....neutral/uninvolved with it all.


Also, it's funny how some people are saying "Candrid is gonna turn her back on MC just like she did with others."


I think those people are forgetting 2 important aspects regarding Candrid's arc from beginning of the game;

Spoiler: Why I think Candrid will not turn her back on MC

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

It just feels like some people are projecting their negative bias towards Candrid into wishing what would happen to her character ; why they hate her character would be various reasons, whether it's because they hate that she wronged their favorite characters like Sonja or Yrsa, or they think she owed loyalty to Ragnar, or something else.

But Candrid turning her back on MC like she did to others is really banking on something that's really not likely to happen I think.
If they still want to do so, I guess,..... good luck to those folks?


Anyway, regarding this game really excited for the next DR update with my favorite girl Nox.
Here's hoping that arc is even better than (if not, at least just as engaging as) the BB update we had.

I agree that the dignity of the White Wolves was tarnished by Torsten's actions. But as you yourself pointed out, this was one man acting on his own accord, without the knowledge or consent of his clan. So, I would say that the reputation of the White Wolves is tarnished, but not destroyed. The Bloody Bears on the other hand knowingly and willfully conspired as a clan to violate their own codes of warrior honor to prevent a former female thrall from becoming their queen. And they did so to protect a sexist, classist, and xenophobic status quo. This completely destroyed their dignity and reputation as a clan. Both in the eyes of the White Wolves and even the Dark Ravens, who initially respected them. Having said all this, I agree that Nox and the Dark Ravens came out smelling like a rose after these events. Hell, the situation may even work to their advantage.
