So you think that Havik is ultra-powered ATM? Like, capable of taking on Kotal and Johnny at the same time powered?

Well, we know of the Blood Demon, corrupting and controlling people through the cursed Kamidaggers. Maybe it needs a host, and so Havik is trying to find a host for it, convincing people (in this case, Reiko) that he can make them a Blood GOD! But in reality, he will just get possessed by this entity.

An alternative is that Havik is finding the perfect sacrifice so he can become one with the Blood Demon himself.

It's entirely possible that there's no such thing as a Blood God and Havik is just playing Reiko for a fool.

But Shawn just straight up said that Havik is the Blood Demon. Did you mean Blood God?

No, because as said, I think it's the same thing. Just two names for it. I don't think there is an actual Blood GOD, but that it is just something Havik calls it to make it seem more appealing to Reiko.

But Havik is the blood demon, so if it's the same thing, you're still saying he's the blood god? And he wants to possess Reiko?

The blood demon that you're trying to say is inside of the Kamidogu is Havik. He's the red text bubbles that's been in people's heads. He was the one telling Sub-Zero that "the time of the blood god is coming!" The "blood demon" term has always been referring to Havik, nothing inside of the Kamidogu.

I guess we need to see what happens in the comic to be sure what's what and who's who. If Havik already is the Blood Demon, as you say, then I wonder how he got that power to manipulate people through the Kamidaggers. That's not something he could do before.
 
What's with all the confusion? I thought it was blatantly obvious, lol.

Havik is not the blood god, but he has corrupted the blood magic and is the demon that Raiden has been referring to.

See, Raiden performed a ritual to make the kamidaggers (I'm stealing this, [MENTION=18134]Yellow Ledbetter[/MENTION]) work as keys for the hiding place of Shinnok's amulet. Havik, wanting something to do with Shinnok's amulet, took note of Raiden's ritual (which involved a blood sacrifice) and corrupted the magic surrounding it. After this, Havik was able to influence people through the daggers.

The blood god is something else entirely. It's whatever Kotal gained his temporary power from. It may even be a vacant title.

How do we know he couldn't before? We have no idea what kind of spells and stuff he knows.

Also the fact that the Kamidogu have been completely changed from what they were before shows we really don't know what characters can and can't do anymore.

Well, change of words then - He didn't do it before.

Well, though it wasn't clear until [MENTION=18507]Harpoon[/MENTION] told me, I think it makes sense, but I still think that's all a construction of our knowledge. I mean, that is true, but wasn't that well told.

:laugh: about Kamidaggers, I can be the Silver Surfer of this expression, because it's so awesome, I like saying that. But Galactus is [MENTION=18258]Zolag[/MENTION]!

Now, you lifted something important.

Kotal Kahn offered his blood to become, temporarily, the Blood God. He did that on pure blood magic, no corruption.

But Raiden's ritual, the one the Elder Gods perfomed, is not that simple. He was clear that the blood of a god is needed.

So, I really don't have idea how Havik is possessing people, I don't even think this is an innate ability.

And, seriously, to possess Raiden? He is using some very powerful thing to do that. Considering the blood magic is from the One Being, it's like Havik is dealing with itself.

But let's assume Havik wants The Amulet. He still needs a god to access the ultimate Kamidogu. I wonder...how?
 
I just thought about something in regards to the whole Havik/Blood Demon thing, if Havik is using the blood magic to control people, doesn't that make him a hypocrite, I mean in his previous bios its stated that he will destroy anyone who seeks to control others, but then what is he doing now, controlling people, I mean I understand that it will lead to more chaos, but it still goes against his code ya know

And he's been pulling the wool over Reiko's eyes for months, if not years, with a very meticulous, non-chaotic plan that took plenty of organization. It's far from clear what his motives are and what his personality really is. (And don't you say "Chaos" and "Crazy!" Don't you do it!)

Hopefully NRS will figure him out one day.

The way I always saw him was a guy who was usually in the background, who was neither Good nor Evil, who slightly influenced people to be chaotic without outright commanding, his personality, what little their was, always seemed layed back, he usually just went with the flow.
 
So Print Issue #5 which releases on April 8th is going to contain the Digital Issue that comes out on the 12th.

I will be going to my Comic Shop again that day, I wanna read early!
