IIRC in one of those descriptions it's mentioned that it doesn't have a face; it's been long-since obliterated and I want to say there's further construction inside the opened skull though that might just be my own imagination.

That middle quote, specifically, has stuck with me through the years and across editions. Thanks for digging that up; I couldn't remember if it was from that book or one of the developer q&a's or whatever....

I keep on getting partway into typing a response, and then getting distracted or deciding that enough people have answered to the OP's satisfaction.

Part of it, for me, is that the core has consistently painted an entire world on the brink. On the brink of what? Who knows. But there's a whole delta of rubicons about to get crossed.

There's a lot of tension there is what I'm saying, and the scale of the game and of its characters means that what happens will run a good chance of affecting your game.

Now, I'm not gonna say metaplot...
