Simple Animorphs Questions: Ask questions with one possible answer here!

[agentAK]

That would be a really cool story. Just to show that the Ellimist has been plotting for eons...

[Galladerotom]

Yes I have a question that may seem stupid and has probably been on this forum before: What the heck is "The One" that the yeerks are worshiping?

[Chad32]

A being that assimilates others, and has a hive mind. anything beyond that is speculation or fanfic, because that's all KA gave us on it.

[justanothername]

In Face/Off Part 3, when Tom runs off to the Yeerk chamber, what does Marco say? It sounds like "Hope that's Jake, [garbled audio]." Anyone know?

[Chad32]

Not I.

I wonder if KA ever said why she chose V3's personality for the main villain of the series instead of V1's?

[agentAK]

Makes for a better story. V1 is too good at her job.

Whatever happened to Esplin 9466 The Lessor?

[Chad32]

For all we know, he disappeared. He wasn't a very important character, it seems.

[agentAK]

Yeah, but still. I wanna know.

Kay, I've been trying to figure this out for some time. If the Yeerks are so technologically superior, WHY HAVEN'T THEY FIGURED OUT THE FRICKIN SECURITY CAMERA YET?!? I mean, there have been plenty of times where the Animorphs have morphed in the Pool complex or on a Yeerk ship, so why are there no security cameras?

[Phoenix004]

lol, a very good point Agent. I suppose for places like the Yeerk Pool, they were too arrogant to think that they needed cameras, especially as they have other advanced technology installed, such as killer robots and bio-filters.

As for other locations (eg. The Sharing or other human companies) the Animorphs were simply smart enough to morph before entering the buildings.

i also liked to think that since visser 3 led the charge on earth, the entire military infrastructure was so incompetent that simple tasks like installing effective security were often derailed, misguided or just didn't get done...

[morfowt]

it could also have to do with the fact that, since they thought they were andalites, having security cameras would be useless... cuz they'd just get a tape of an andalite morphing...

Or maybe due to Visser Three's incompetence, the Council slashed his budget!

Is Tobias' last name really Fangor, or is that just speculation?

[Chad32]

Does anyone remember Jake, or anyone else, calline Cassie Cass before the final arc? I remember Cassie saying that Jake doesn't call her Cass anymore. When did he ever?

Is Tobias' last name really Fangor, or is that just speculation?

It's just speculation, as it is never confirmed in the books. The Ellimist erased Loren's memories of Elfangor when she was pregnant with Tobias, so it's unlikely that she would've given him the Fangor last name when he was born (unless of course she changed her last name to 'Fangor' when she was married to Elfangor.)
