What is Bopen
So recently I was thinking about Bopen, and I was trying to figure out what he actually was, and it occurred to me that Bopen is likely a believer. We know he is not an actual ageless from what Phineas says in the animation when he looks at Bopen's bones. The other thing to note is that their is definitely a book about Bopen, because in the fall Dundinborough we see the book about Bopen read, and this also tells us that the book was in the room where Bopen first appeared. I think all of this combined means that believer. Let me know what you guys think of this idea, and what I might be wrong about.

I think he's the fanbase's avatar of malice and inclination towards seeing death and destruction
1. When Deadbones character in the skeleton king (can't remember her name, the Gorgan) tried to sense his mind, she felt nothing. This means the body isn't inhabited directly.
2. He 'survived' a failed death roll. Rob has made it clear he doesn't bend this rule, if you fail a death roll, you are dead unless you have some ability, and they often come with a sin, though not always. The way it was described to me, it made me think that the spirit basically decided to make a new body, from the bones of the person who defeated him.
I could be wrong however this seems like the best fit, some sort of spirit, maybe divine, though that is hard to guess. I will say one more thing. I think that the new grand paladin has thought of a way to defeat Bopen, it is ready to go to open war with all ageless, and go on the offensive, it has an idea about what Bopen really is, quote "What killed Virgo was no mere ageless, what killed Virgo, was a god" it knows what it is fighting
That is possible, my biggest problem with that is I feel he wants meta stuff to be, well us
I agree, in a way...I just had a thought that could add to my theory, the grand paladin, is basically a holder of the light, and it is transferred using final gift, is it possible Bopen is the holder of the dark? And when he 'dies' it chooses and inhabits a new target?
Wait....when did Bopen say he saw Bruce's death?
just rewatched the Purge and your right Bopen says a friend told him about what happened to Bruce not that he saw it
Could Bopen's ring contain (or be) a hypothetical "greater shard of perversion", which could have multiple uses? If so, destroying the ring shouldn't immediately kill Bopen but instead leave him with 1 last life, at which point he would probably go into hiding.
Think he might be a bootleg believer the uses bones instead of books
1: Susurflame, we know it survived in the bottom of the dragon gold, so is it not possible that a dwarf king hearing of this weapon decided to try and get his hand on it and resmith it? And I don't think anything show den of devils happening after the fall. It also goes a way to explaining Bopens power, he has the soul of a divine dragon in his sword, or maybe he is Virugna, angry for being killed?
2. Junkyosha the weapon that killed Bruce Wilikers, the divine light. A weapon powerful enough to kill divines...does it not make sense that this weapon was somehow found by the dwarf king and made into a weapon?
Fall of dundenburow is one of the earliest canonical campaigns, Bopen is not wielding sursurflame. Not all dreamweaver visions are true so that could just be a fake vision. Junkyosha is still in that hands of ghostblade for all we know. There is a timeline somewhere it’s very useful to look at before trying to create theories
May I ask how we know that? How we know dundenburow is early? If there is a way I apologise but I couldn't think of anything. Ghost blade lost the weapon to Quintara, she took it I believe, and beyond that it has been quite a while since then lorewise, and if Quintara did have it, who knows what she did with it
Wait I’m dumb I thinking about something else not dundenborough
i don’t think quintara took the blade, but I definitely can’t belive a dwarf king turned Junkyosha into a weaker weapon especially not when simply touching the weap9n would kill you if you were not worthy so I doubt a smith could get away with touching it to reforge it in the first place.
Okay, so my ideas are okay? Good as I think particularly with Junkyosha I am onto something.
Bopen's blade most likely isn't Junkyosha either, since why would Quintara give a Dwarven King such a blade? Plus, nothing actually said she took it so why would Ghostblade give the sword to a Dwarven King? Bopen's blade is most likely forged from his black ring (and gold, although we know the gold part) in the story told to young Prince Phineas.
