6	** Scardigne was originally supposed to be [[spoiler:a 100% original, 100% male character complete with his own Farian-flared Incorruptus, referred to in the book as [[https://lparchive.org/White-Knight-Chronicles-I-II/Update%2060/257-OGScardigne.jpg the “God of War,”]] (seen at the end of this update) which you would retrieve from a place known as Ences Temple, which itself was also DummiedOut of the game]]. Why [[spoiler:it became Kara instead]] is unknown, nor is there a reason why [[spoiler:she couldn’t have the God of War herself, seeing as how she took everything else associated with Scardigne, other than it was an idea that came about at a later stage in the duology’s development and was axed because it countermanded the game lore’s “Five Knights and only five Knights” commandment]].
