Talk:Furyan

message: Riddick is NOT the only surviving Furyan - the Purifier is also from Furya.
ALSO...has anyone seen dark fury? was one of the statues of the "frozen" people a furyan? i thought there was a sign that said that. wouldn't that mean that there are three furyans? riddick, the guy working for the necromongers, and the poor statue guy (who is alive)?
should that be included in the entry?
* While I loved the film (essentially a cross between Flash Gordon and Conan the Barbarian, what's not to like?) it was pretty ridiculous that the High Marshal, knowing he would be killed by a Furyan - had one as his Purifier. That probably the most stupid plot development in the whole movie.
** I always thought that the Lord Marshalnever knew his Purifier was a Furyan.
***I also was under the impression that the Lord Marshal never had any idea that his Purifier was a Furyan. Fact that's exactly what it is. Remember when the Lord Marshall orderd he's lackies to kill "The riddick" and the Purifier released Riddick from that awesome magnetic like structure he was bound to, during the psychic's evaluation of him. Which in turn, causes his escape. I'd say this is concrete evidence to support the fact that the Lord Marshall has little to no idea of his Purifiers distinctive heritage.
For the record I think the acctual myth goes that Riddick is the only KNOWN survivor of the masacre of Furyia.
The fact is; is that the writings just haven't spoke throughly of other Furyian survivors, and if it has they've been cast-off characters that hold no great relivance to the story. But don't kid yourself, it's better that way.
it looks like the purifier was a preacher in furyan's warrior race myths but faced
with hard decision to die or be converted in the ruthless necromonger's faith
serving as an example to the future would-be converters
* The Purifier may also not be considered a Furyan anymore but a Necromonger instead.  At the end he regains his senses but he was definitly working for the Lord Marshal before that.  --Saphyr333 18:54, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

message: In the extra features of the DVD, it states that Riddick becomes "THE Alpha Furyan," which appears to be a title of sorts, but I've been seeing it used as if any Furyan can become an Alpha. Someone clear this up. BishopTutu 03:44, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Rampant OR here... I think of it as being like a supersaiyan, like you unlock your hidden furyan potential or something... but thats just my own pet theory :) WookMuff 10:54, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Yeah, but what im askin is if its a title, like being the leader and "chief" of the Furyans or something. Thats what i interpret it as, but i want to know if its used differently in the novelization. If not, then its more than likely a simple title. BishopTutu 19:33, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, i haven't read the novelization, sorry. But if it IS something that kicks in after you kill a certain amount of people, i doubt it would make you king of the furyans WookMuff 01:30, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

text: I don't think it's been proven in the films yet. Yes, one of the flash films from the site says so, but some of that info has been retconned; we can't determine if any of it is true or not yet.  ♣ Klptyzm  Chat wit' me  §  Contributions ♣ 16:49, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

text: Yes, but the DVD refers to him as "The" as opposed to "a". Furthermore, we can't determine which information will be retconned in the following film so we'd have to wait until then.  ♣ Klptyzm  Chat wit' me  §  Contributions ♣ 04:57, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
