    In exit the gungeon there is a boss named Low priest, and he is high priest in the past. The low priest was an old apprentice of Cannon until the Kaliber taken the control of Low priest, making he to become just a gun and ghost. Then with the power of kaliber he summoned a army of confirmeds to become the high priest, he taken over the old followers of old king, they together served the old king. But the bullet king come to gungeon and become to the rival of high priest.
    Edit: This goes to lore of bullet king😅

    The high priest could have been a great killithid in his previous life, because it can be infered from the description of the mine flayer that he is not the only great killithid. Also he has blue tentacle like arms similar to the mine flayer.

  • @reworkedusername1136
    @reworkedusername1136 5 років тому +17

    My opinion on the high priest bit, is that the gunslingers ashes, contains a ghost of the gunslinger who still has his guns, and can still shoot. The high priest, has blue limbs, just like the ghost of the gunslinger and ser Emanuel, meaning he is most likely a ghost. This also ties into why he dissolves when he dies. But, the gunslingers ashes description saying the high priest “still remembers” makes me feel like someone tested this art of preserving a soul on him, but it didn’t work, preserving his body with the head of a gun.
    Then on the topic of blue baby having the blue skin like the priest, blue baby is a form of Isaac who suffocated inside of his treasure chest. He turned blue because of the lack of oxygen. I don’t have a reason for the lich having blue skin, but the difference between the high priest and him are pretty big. The priest has a more blue skin while the lich has a greenish-teal color. As mentioned previously, the blue color from the priest matches more closely to the gunslingers ashes’ bullets and the dead version of blockner and ser Emanuel.

    So what I gathered from the Wallmonger's design: A Terraria Reference. 8:29 The whole "made out of corpses" and how the teeth is a reference to Terraria's "Wall of Flesh". this is further established when the Wallmonger is referred to as "The Demon Wall." Not only is the Wall of Flesh from the underworld, but also it keeps the spirits of light and dark at bay, and the Wall of Flesh is summon with a Guide Voodoo Doll, dropped from Voodoo Demons.

    The lore implications of there being human skeletons in the Wallmonger are pretty crazy. Who were the humans? Were there more than the ones who were put in the Wallmonger?

    @dizzydial8081 2 роки тому

    The wallmonger feels like a reference to a monster in d&d called wall of flesh. I think. If it's from something else that d&d incorporated I'm not aware of it. A wall of flesh is an undead monster that is stationary but absorbs any creature it can absorb. After absorption, the creature will appear on the wall. The creatures will recognize old friends and family but because they are now part of the wall, their goal is to lure new victims into the wall.
    With wallmonger, there are both bullets and humans in there. I could be wrong, but this is what I think the wallmonger is.

    @Nevernamed i feel i should mention this due to the looks of no one else mentioning it. when the ashes says "preserved with gun in tact" its going off of the "soul" of the gunslinger who's ashes is in there and his ability to shoot with his guns. its talking about the shot itself not the gun. (sidenote) ashes are a form of preservation still. not preserving the body per-say but preserving the individual.

  • @Stupisms

    You know in Dark Souls 2 there's a boss named Rotten and it's made of corpses and on his left shoulder there's a hollow that seemed to manipulate him
    And if we look at the Wall we see that there's a guy /forgot his name/ that acts just like the hollow in the Rotten fight and maybe he is the one who makes Wall to fight just like in DS2
    Or I'm just overplayed ds2 who knows who knows

    Great video only bad thing about it is that the background gameplay is bad and hard to watch

    that slime from 11:05 is also the slime that spawns in after you kill blobulord

    Isn't that "Floob" Thing a Number Muncher?

    Maybe there is something inside the wall as it has legs and teeth.
