I played through all of the original story years ago, but I'm doing the meta stuff to redo it. Who is E? I don't remember this character at all, and I know he doesn't pop up in PoF.

External link →We don't find out, at least so far we haven't, and it's not all that likely that he'll be involved any time soon, given that he was mostly centered around Kryta.
It's possible that they had plans to reveal him surrounding some other content, such as the unresolved Krytan throne mystery or the Wizard's tower. It's also possible that they had no intention of ever revealing the character, assuming he/she/whatever has nothing to gain from being revealed, so the players were theorizing who it is all this time for nothing.
While the latter explanation is unsatisfying, it would be a better world building moment - why would somebody who's entire business is being elusive let one of the most infamous people on the planet know who they are? On the other hand, Anet doesn't seem to build mysteries with no intention of resolving them, as some writers like Daniel Handler do, so I'd chock it up to being a shelved story thread.
u/Heartsure I like to think of it as shelved. But yeah, it's been a while.
I'm so happy seeing you post more and more here !
u/DemethValknut Thanks! I try when I can. Things are super busy right now but I'm trying to balance being active/available in ways that make sense.
So here is a question - did you guys ever figure out who E is? Did you ever decide or was it just a plot thread you left danging to explore at some later date?
u/Andulias I know who E is. We've had that planned for many years. Just haven't found a good opportunity to pick that back up and move it forward due to a million reasons. But it's on the list.
Ah, BobbyStEin thinks they know who E is. I understand now :D
But, seriously, as the poster above said it's nice to see you back in the subreddit!
LOL
I'm curious, have there been points when what looked like a good opportunity showed up, but then it had to be removed due to various reasons? Or have the story beats just never really lead in that general direction? Also, betting that's a pretty long list. :p
u/KamuiHyuga Short answer is, yes, there were plans that had to get backburnered for various reasons that I can't go into.
Where is it located with respect to the Table though?
u/blj192 It's next to the salad dressing and breadsticks last I checked...
