F2 Theories- New Theory Added
Im back- where have I been you may ask? Holed up in my basement with nothing but the Fable 2 teaser, a thousand smokes and a lot of coffee. What have I been doing? I have been plotting and creating theories. Lots of them which, over time I will post right here. Now, down to the business. I would also like everybody to note that picking flaws in my theories is a good thing, if I missed something tell me. If you have a good theory shoot it out there and we'll chat about it. Feel free to join in anytime.

Theory 1- Star Signs
Okay Molyneux had mentioned a while back that there were about ten thing, secrets if you will, which you could be found in the trailer. After looking at the teaser I have come up with several theories- the origami fortune telling device the girl uses is a key element in most of this. Obviously each symbol on the top of it symbolises something- many have speculated these are the different classes such as warrior, mage, so on and so fourth. Now, when the girl opens up this device there are glowing symbols, difficult to make out, which people have jumped to the conclusion that they are the symbols for the Oracles in the Snowspire village or some other kind of thing- WRONG.
They are star signs and I have identified each one of them for your interest;
Libra, Cancer, Scorpio, Saggitarius, Aquarius, Leo, Capricorn, Aries
It is interesting to note that there are only eight star signs here, when normally there should be twelve. So anyway each star sign often has attributes attached to it and each star sign is also linked
to an element.
Earth- Capricorn
Fire- Aries, Leo, Saggitarius
Air- Libra, Aquarius
Water- Cancer, Scorpio
So I guess elements will feature heavily in this new Fable, in various ways. Notice how everything in Fable was sunny and the weather only changed when you went somewhere like cold or dank. Well I assume this new Fable will have constantly changing weather patterns.
Those origami things- you've used them, you know how they work, you pick one thing from the top set- such as your class, Nobleman (crown), Seer (hand with eye), Mage (yin/yang) or warrior (sword) and once you have chosen that the fortune teller open and you select something form the inner sides of it, meaning the elements. Therefore you pick your class, then you pick you element/star sign set. The star sign/element choice will give your character different personality traits and weaknesses along with strengths. This choice will probably also help to determine your characters fate.

Theory 2- The Yin/Yang
On the top of the fortune telling device there are four symbols- one is a crown, obviously nobility, there is a sword, obviously strength/warrior, there is a hand with an eye represting foresight/magic but the thing which is seemingly a bit vague is the yin/yang symbol. Well not entirely vague- most people assume ying-yang for being good and evil but you need to look a little deeper.
Yin and Yang coexist with each other- one cannot be without the other. Its about balance. Therefore I assume Fable 2 will not be directly about eradicating evil- it will be about maintaining a balance. Also, the symbols are missing something, now this may contradict my first point. The two dots of the opposite colour in each side of the yin/yang are not there- these dots represent the seed of evil inside the good and vice versa. So this would indicate that there is some ultimate good and some ultimate evil in Fable 2. A pure being and one of ulimate evil neither containing a hint of the opposite. You getting this point yet- Skorm and Avo.
Also- yin/yang are opposite and I read somewhere that since they are opposite they can be taken as male and female. The darker of the two being female, the lighter being male. So I guess we will get female characters in Fable 2.
