Seriously, the Nameless is one of the coolest things in B&S in my opinion (I mean, he feels like Requiem version of the Emissary of Nexus from Exalted) and after I've made thousands of theories about VII and the strixs, now my brain can't stop thinking about what the Nameless could be.. Because of his aesthetics (shadowy figure with glowing eyes) and his seemingly dislike toward Lancea et Sanctum, I think it is connected to the strixs somehow- so here are few theories my mind made up for him:
a) an evolved strix. When strixs lives long enough and manage not to split itself, it start absorbing other strixs until it turns into an human like form.
b) The Nameless is to the Man what the strixs are to the Beast, hence his control over Theban Sorcery. He is also just the first one- and there are others in the way.
c) Remember that it was said that if a strix use Synthesis over a supernatural being, weird things happen? This is what happen when it use it on a demon. It stopped the Theban Sorcery for seeing it as part of the God Machine's influence, and limits the number of kindred to 4 because for demons 4 is really a magical number.
so, what about your theories?
