Irnakk and the Golden Skinned Being


Recommended Posts

I was just pondering if Irnakk was a kind of hint at the Golden Skinned Being since they have rather similar traits. Both are gold and rather large, and while Irnakk doesn't exactly bring dreams into reality, he does make his victim's fears very real.

 

Another point I'd to add is that it was the Skakdi who brought the Golden Skinned Being into being. Does anyone else see a correlation?

 

EDIT: I just want to add that I don't see them as being the same. Just that maybe whoever influenced the Skakdi to create the Golden Skinned Being used Irnakk as a kind of template.

As above. They might have wanted to elaborate the idea behind Irnakk, but I really don't think it was a hint at the Gold-skinned Being.

"So where is my dream?" "it is a continuation of reality"

"But where is my reality?" "It is at the end of your dream"

Maybe the Golden-Skinned Being was thought up to be sort of like Inakk, but I do not think Irnakk was foreshadowing towards it as you suggested.

I agree. They may have used Inakk as a templet for the design of the golden skined being, but they probly were not hinting at the golden skinned being being another version of Irnakk Edited by -Jaller-

I have noticed this too, yes.

 

Perhaps it was meant as "the opposite of Irnakk"? A blessing evoking the frightful mythological curse with some traits in common, to highlight the contrast?

Really, the gold-skinned being's traits seemed to be most like an anti-Irnakk. Makuta was feeling generous?

 

He wanted the Skakdi as allies, and the Golden One would appear to be a new resource for him. Why deny himself potential resources?

It adds up. :) A conquering Golden One would quell a lot of the resistance (even if it wasn't expressly supporting Teridax).
