regarding heisenberg being a n*zi, it's almost impossible. lady dimitrescu was born in the 40s, according to some sources, and she refers to heisenberg as a child; going off his physical appearance, as you said, he was mostly likely born in the 70s or 80s. the rumors started based on the blank dog tags he wears, but the factory he took over was a wwi/wwii dumping ground (allegedly), and those tags were used before wwi, so it's highly unlikely that he's a n*zi
Pretty much. Lady D was also born around 1914 or earlier, was experimented on/stopped aging at like 44* and the... uh... unique way she tended to fire her employees started around 1958 based of the date on one of the notes in the castle from either the maiden trailer or the main game ā itās dated June 23, 1958 and mentions āwailing at night throughout the Castle, āas if ghosts roam the hallsā.ā So she couldnāt have been born any later than 1914 for that note to make sense.
That said, if we roll with 1914 as her birth year, sheās over a hundred (~107) in 2021. (Makes sense because eternal life, the oldest, yadda yadda...) The youngest WW2 vets (in America, at least) are roughly in their mid-90ās as of 2021. While her calling him a child would technically work if he was actually that old/didnāt age, I personally think itās funnier if heās actually just a middle aged (mid-40ās to 50-something) adult ā which is what I think they were going for, given how cheesy the dialogue is. ļæ¼
These people also are science experiments, at the end of the day, so their abilities are well-noted. I didnāt find anything about Heisenberg not aging, so I donāt like just rolling with the whole āheās older than he looksā thing. That kind of seems like itād be really important.
Him looking like he does makes sense because of the background of the factory ā he looks like a dumpster diver/junk collector in appearance. But the whole crazy German scientist thing is still there ā his name alone is enough evidence of that. So while I donāt think heās a āliteral Naziā, I do think thatās what they drew at least a little bit of that characterās design from ā heās a villain and this is a common villain design, so I wouldnāt be surprised.
*whatās with Capcom and all the ~44 y/oās? lol.

And finally, the moderators of this zine. We bring our combined experience across multiple fanzines, both as mods and contributors, together to create the best project possible, for our creators as well as for fellow Vergil fans everywhere.
We hope you enjoy the wonderful things Awakening has in store!
I was replaying DMC 5 recently and, while looking at the reports you get in game, apparently Eva died on the 15th (16th?) during a city-wide slaughter that claimed the lives of 135 other people. Which makes me wonder if Urizen, whether consciously or not, chose that date as the day to awaken the tree and cause another massacre in Red Grave. What do you think?
Possibly. I mean. Iām of the mindset that Vergil and Dante are, on the inside, pretty thoughtful people when they want to be. So I find it harder to believe that anything involving them ā especially Vergil ā is ever just āfunny coincidenceā.
The tree was summoned at their childhood home/the place of their trauma, too. And thatās definitely not a coincidence, and I highly doubt itās even just out of convenience.
On a meta level: I feel like thereās gotta be a teeny, tiny sliver of Vergil in Urizen, in his subconscious somewhere, or I doubt theyād have used Dan Southworth as Urizen. After all, V did get a teeny, tiny sliver of demonic power. If weāre assuming V & Ergil Urizen are two halves of a whole in every sense of the word, Iād think the inverse would be true, too.
Also for your (and anyoneās) consideration: The characters/designs have a heavy western influence, and Motherās Day in the United States is always the first Sunday in May ā not very far off from the start of events in DMC5. Even funnier than that, if weāre assuming DMC5 takes place in 2019, then June 16th (in the U.S.) last year was Fatherās Day.
(Wonder how many F-bombs Nero dropped when he realized that? š¤)
Solynacea is serving as mod and artist, and their longtime love of all things DMC will be on display with a picture inspired by the game that started it all!

At this point Iām convinced that Merlin is either really forgetful or really shady, especially now because it seems like she purposefully (somehow) led the fight to the lake to get enough magic in it to force Arthur to transform, and he doesnāt look pleased. So either she forgot her immunity and forgot about the lake, or realized during the DK fight that she could manipulate the outcome to be what she wanted, meaning she was aware people would die and just didnāt care
Unfortunately itās hard to put a finger on how forgetful she is, since a lot of it is a product of Nakaba improvising on the spot (her āforgettingā about immunity to the TC precepts and letting Galand petrify her was just Nakaba not deciding that she had it until later).
I think sheās shady. Itās long been evident that she perceives people outside her inner circle as... unimportant, to be generous. It follows from that attitude that she considers others to be disposable if it contributes to her goal. After all, she wasnāt raised in an environment where life had inherent valueāremember, she and her father saw one another as an experimental study. And thatās to say nothing of whatever her relationship was with TC Mel & the Demon Clan (we donāt know anything, but I canāt imagine that it encouraged compassion).
So in a choice between preserving a bunch of puny mortal lives or achieving her endgame goal, something she perceives as her one and only chance at redemption........ frankly, I think sheād kill those people herself in a heartbeat, let alone just accept them as collateral damage to saving a friend. I mean look at her expression here:
She doesnāt care what happens next or how anyone perceives her now. This is her chance at freedom after three millennia of heavy guilt.
As an aside, though, I will be really disappointed if her entire relationship with Meliodas was a sham. If everything sheās done to help him was simply in pursuit of this instead of actually caring, I will cry for the death of my favorite relationship. Either way, this twist of hers will break poor Meliodasā heartāhe definitely cares about and trusts her, and for her to violate Arthurās autonomy, devalue life, and turn the world order on its head without giving a shit goes against everything he stands for. Poor Mel.
In the FAQ, it says that a portfolio containing Witcher pieces is preferred; will not having any make it more difficult for an applicant to be accepted into the zine? I've only recently joined the fandom, so I don't have any published works about The Witcher yet, and I'd love to contribute to this project
Hi there, thanks for your interest! We will not discount an otherwise strong application for not having Witcher pieces.Ā
