History Trivia / SentinelsOfTheMultiverse

* IKnewIt: At least half the forums were convinced that [[spoiler: Grand Warlord Voss]] was the tenth Scion of [=OblivAeon=]. Christopher and Adam had been getting letters about it since the start of the Letters Page podcast.

** Fans thought the relationship between Tachyon and Unity was a bit too fraught with BelligerentSexualTension for them ''not'' to be a couple. WordOfGod shot it down by saying Tachyon already ''has'' a wife, who was both discussed and shown in the promotional comic.

** Another was that the Scholar's Philosopher Stone is an [=OblivAeon=] shard. This, too, was denied by

WordOfGod.

* OneOfUs: Christopher and Adam are at least aware of TVTropes, given that they namedrop several tropes on the Letters Page. They’re also huge comic book nerds and love telling stories which is how they got into this whole card game thing in the first place.

* PromotedFanboy: Played with. Richard Launius originally created Nightmist and the concept that would become Gloomweaver as a fan project, before the team at Greater Than Games took note and invited him to design both in collaboration with them. However, unlike many such Promoted Fanboys, Launius is already an [[TabletopGames/ArkhamHorror accomplished tabletop game designer]].

* DevelopmentGag: The game's creators have said repeatedly that Absolute Zero was heavily reworked from his original conception, going from essentially "Ra with an ice gun instead of a fire staff" to his current design. During the Absolute Zero episode of the Sentinels podcast, Adam and Christopher revealed that, in the fictitious world of Sentinels Comics, there was an unrelated [[TheGoldenAgeofComicBooks Golden Age]] hero named Henry Goodman who took the alias Absolute Zero to fight Nazis with an ice gun and co-founded the original Freedom Four before being forgotten due to a lack of popularity in-universe (and later replaced on the rebooted Freedom Five by the current Absolute Zero, [[PunnyName Ryan Frost]]). Later in the podcast episode, Adam and Christopher state that a reference to the origins of the character.

* AscendedFanon: [[https://greaterthangames.com/forum/topic/wraith-razors-edge-8193 One player's fan fiction]] about the Wraith's final battle with Spite proved popular enough that it inspired one of the video game's [[https://greaterthangames.com/forum/topic/weekly-one-shot-week-9-the-wraith-razors-edge-8513 Weekly One-Shot challenges]].

* WordOfGod: The game's writers are active on its forums and regularly hold Q+A sessions on Twitch during art streams. Between these, they've put out a lot of information about the series, either new tidbits, or confirming fan speculation -- e.g., that Setback and Expatriette are a couple and that Tachyon and The Matriarch are cousins.
