Sofia Fuegonasus as Final Career?

After my first playthrough of the Trail of Treachery, it got me thinking, on reddit I saw a post about Sofia possibly being Sienna’s final career.

Now I don’t think a Necromancer would be anything but dead if Saltzpyre had a say, and since this mission has Sofia talking, she couldn’t also be an active player character on that mission, but I can’t help but think that this latest update is somehow related to the final career for Sienna.

they have already said that path of treachery is to set up the stage for sienna’s 4th career

I didn’t know that, but could Sofia somehow redeem herself and become the final career?

didnt aqshy confirm that siennas last career would not be a different person?

It isn’t only Saltzpyre who hates necromancers. I think that Kruber also have an aversion to necromancers so a necromancer on the team seems as unlikely as a vampire.

Oh, I didn’t know that either. I don’t really watch much of the dev streams or such.

Oh, I kinda know it couldn’t be a necromancer, but I was wondering if somehow Sofia would be involved, but that seems unlikely given what Aqshy may have said and considering she is an antagonist voiced at the end of ToT. Would be weird if she was a playable character in the group while also defiling Oleysa’s tower.

Perhaps Sienna’s final career will be Master Vigilant after all; would make sense with her having to hunt Sofia. That’s what I’m leaning towards.

Do we have a source for this? There is nowadays a significant amount of information I simply don’t follow (Reddit, Discord, Streams).

I would appreciate it. Especially since it would shut down that route (which I would favour).

Concerning the OP: From the information I followed, we just know that Fatshark wanted to bring out some content to set-up the stage for Sienna’s fourth career. Unless we assume Fatshark having more surprises in their sharktank, I think ToT is this one.
For now, we know for sure that something happened with Engels Tower with another mage trying to take control over it. So whatever happens in that finale will be the stage setting like:

  • U5 fighting (but not killing?) Sofia giving Sienna the conviction to change her lift to a more righteous/religious approach or getting revenge on Sofia/fighting her to the bitter end. The last scenario would nicely open up Undead as enemies although a “single” necromancer would be unusually low-scale for the U5. So there might be some team ups in store.
  • Something going horribly wrong in some kind of map final, blasting Sienna in different spheres of Wind.

Hm, I started of with “we know” and that wrote a lot of speculation :stuck_out_tongue:

maybe it will help :wink:

If the final map is something that changes Sienna, then how would things progress if someone was playing that map with her new career? Careers are always non-specific to the mission.

I suppose that in the event someone has the DLC career active, it changes the context of the mission by manipulating a few dialogue lines. That’d go nicely with the Master Vigilant idea since Sienna wouldn’t necessarily have to be a Master Vigilant to bring Sofia to justice, but it’d make it all the more relevant if it was an option.

@Max93 There’s not much to go on on that Steam Q&A. The only thing I could glean from that Steam forum was that Aqshy indicated the final career most likely not Gold Wizard. A lot of the comments haven’t brought up anything new.

Still Sienna then, I’m almost certain it must be master vigilant.

Master vigilant does not feel like its a Sienna thing at all, something related to Myrmidia stands out as much more likely if considering her personality thus far. Master vigilant? A mage witch hunter working for the imperial government being all cloak&daggers with a passion for rooting out evils of the world, real or by them perceived? Nah. ’

Nope, if considering Sienna, who often gets heated when talking justice and equality, like how the empire treats its commoners fairly poorly often, then the sunny goddess who has that in her portfolio is a likely winner.

Fire is her personality though. It’s difficult to imagine her in a priestly role; or at least that seems atypical of what I’ve read about warrior priestesses of Myrmidia. One thing that has been confirmed about Sienna’s final career is that it will involve magic, is that allowed into priesthoods of myrmidia within the rules of Warhammer?

She is gonna be an ice wizard and her variation on the “invisibility” carreer skill will be freezing enemies so they can’t attack you ore something like that.

We don’t need a sneak Sienna

And Ice Sienna isn’t lorefull

Maybe a shadow sienna? like once her sister is killed/beaten oleysha invite sienna to stay in her tower and teach her some agic that mesh shadow and fire into an ash based style of magic^^

honnestly I’m not sure if aqushy line was to be taken as an info and not just a joke so I’m still keeping hope for the sister.

Thanks! So Reddit it was. Usually not there.

Well, technically … it could still be that Sienna’s mind somehow gets transferred into Sofia’s body. She would look like Sienna, be named Sienna and have magic powers. :stuck_out_tongue:

And then we could discuss if magic in Warhammer is tied to the mind or the vessel the mind is in. Or the combination of both.

Nah, I will stay with my original guess: Maiden of the Blazing Sun
Just so that I can say I told ya! Well, chance is still there. We will know next year.

Sadly I lost where I read that, but there were thing about Magistre form other orders being kidnapped and then reappearing later as Magister of the Order of Light, who often deal with Spirits

So I would say Mind.

Likewise, possessed people can still use magic, so maybe both ?.

But still, I’ll stay a staunch supporter of Avatar/Daughter of Aqshy as last career (Embodiment of Aqshy pls)

If i am not mistaken then Myrmidia is a Sun Goddess ontop everything else, or she has that for a symbol plus a whole knighthood with that + flames as their livery.

Doesnt she have a miracle that´s explicitly fire related as well?

Well… as much or less as (sorta) retconning Krubsi to be a GK, turning Keri into a spellcaster (or a Dark Elf for that matter… or a high elf) or any of the other inexcplicable changes in carreer.
It would kinda make sense. I mean, ice magic is reserved for the Ice Witches of Kislev, but if Kruber can somehow become enough Bretonian to be a GK, Sienna can become an Ice Witch. Would explain that her new carreer would be “cool”, and the new map being set in a snowy landscape / Kislev and Olesya wanting us to… uh… save her magic tower I guess.
