 		Ok, so with this James Millard Oakes stuff everywhere, I was thinking:

1. When Lutwidge says that "the path can only be traversed by a knight," and Oakes, the white knight, is a sailor, maybe he's referring to traveling over the ocean.

2. This would also be another factor supporting Inman as the pawn because Inman was in the navy, if I recall correctly, and he sailed over the ocean yet never discovered rapture, hence he "traversed the board but never divined the secret."

Let me know what you think.

 		I think there maybe a connection between Inman and Oakes, but I can't find Inman's birth date.. or military record. so thats speculation.

Lutwidge refer's to Oakes as "The White Knight" then something Lutwidge says may hold water.

I mean, "There are no Knights left in this game, only pawns etc" then he states "not quite" implying there maybe one left... in the naval context it could be a direct reference Inman. Or the possibility that Inman may actually Oakes.

The only other thing I can think of is Lutwidge is saying there is no one left to save him, or on his side.


Looking at the pictures of Atlas (Bio radio pic), the pic of Oakes (Naval Id) and Fontaine's (Bio radio pic) they all look very similar. I.e eyebrows, nose, ears, chin, cheek lines, eyes.. Fontaine is bald, but Atlas and Oakes share a similar hair style.

Was he put into hibernation due to cost, or because he was the prototype?
Tenenbaum has a conversation with him, not just barking orders at him. He has the ability to reason, instead of just following pre-programed instructions. Maybe hibernation to protect the original, in case many more need to be made in a hurry. Maybe he is the doctor who came up the Big Daddification procedure and tried it on himself, as someone earlier in the thread said. Or maybe hibernation as a means of controlling the errant prototype. Too valuable to destroy, but too unpredictable to send into the field.
Any thoughts?


I pressume it has got to be one of those reason. I think that the key to it will arise when we learn the Original Big Daddies identity. I agree with Everfall over the time line, but I can't shake the feeling that there is some connection between Mark and the First Big Daddy.


Re: Sinclair Solutions did make Plasmids.

Anyway, I've been looking over the archive file containing Lutwidge's Blue Book. A few things in Carmady's report strike me. The comments about Lutwidge mixing several containers together and working on them as if he's either trying to create or searching for an answer.

Going off the above: Seven fold the lock.. as in the secret is in within the Adam, or combining 7 different types of plasmids gives you. I can't remember if Ryans Key to Rapture (the bit in the first one in his office where you sling the key in the machine after killing Ryan) was genetic encoded or not. But, the machine does look like it fills up with Adam.

Yeah, I think that whoever has the gentic key has the Adam filtered to them, that's how Fontaine became all super powered at the end, and I think the genetic key tunes this users DNA to the resurrection vita-chamber things.

I think it's Fontaine, isn't it?

BTW, that reminds me... how did Meltzer get ahold of that audio diary anyway?

 		I feel like it sounded like Macdonagh or Sullivan from Bioshock 1, I always get them confused.

Man - miss a day or two and this place blows up! great posts everyone!

Taking a step back.....

I agree that the Pawn is probably Inman. Having someone in the navy who was in charge of the Vanishing investigation would be an incredibly valuable disciple or Lutwidge.
Also the recent diary entry where Lutwidge comes up with his alias (R. Killian Quain), Inman could fit in I*an.


My iniitial impression is the I*an is a red herring - it's may simply be "Kill Ryan" with the "y" and all the pieces of the capital "R" removed/scribbled out, save the first vertical hash. The scribbles below the "kill" could spell "Andrew" Thoughts?

 		The voice on the recorder is STANGO, and he is reporting to someone at Rapture.

It's the only person who has access to what Lutwidge has been hiding and has been there from the beginning, and I would think it would be Mark's nemesis in this.

This further's my suspicion that he's the Pawn who is now a player. the one Lutwidge warned about.

 		I think the voice is Fontaine. It looks just like the audio diaries that you picked up in Bioshock 1, and the voice sound exactly like him.

When he says "...crashed the gates" I think he is talking about Lutwidge finding Rapture by himself, and wandering into the city.

"He's not even supposed to be here..." as if no one knows how he got there.

I think that Lutwidge may have fueled the fire a little bit when it comes to the war between Ryan and Fontaine. It would be a way for Lutwidge to get his revenge on Ryan.

Just a thought...


That being said, I think that Benny Stango and Fontaine are voice by the same voice actor. Smile

 		I don't think Oakes is Fontaine because Lutwidge says that when he arrives in Raputre, it is quiet and he finds the remains of a party all over, presumably the wreckage from the new year's party that Atlas started his revolution during. Fontaine died in 1958 and became Atlas, so he would already be accounted for during the time that the recording was made.
