Is "DromEd" on there? If not it should be in tier 2 or 3.

thief 2014 should be at the bottom where it shall not be discussed
It's not a chart of quality but how well know this stuff is. The stuff most people know about is "only the tip of the iceberg".

Jenivere, The Maw and Horn of Quintus should definitely be on there, second tier maybe.
Bugbeasts, Craybeasts, spiders, Talismans, Elemental arrows etc could also possibly be there.

how i would love to play a thief fan mission where SHODAN is the final boss from system shock but we got garretts skills to put that a.i. down once and for all,if i can take out the reborn woodsie lord in rotb part 1 series,still cant figure out how to get code in rotb 2 bonus mission where you have to re do the entire final level while the other garrett from another time is doing it,i don't think i ever heard one person completing that super hard ending,if you don't know what i am talking about please message me and i will explain as i feels its the one secret in a fan mission most have no idea about as the 2 series are probably one of the hardest out there,only for the most elite of thief fan mission players,and you better master gorts style of fan mission before tackling it,i am kinda shocked Christine never attempted a cross over in a thief fan mission with shodan

... What exactly does this have to do with the iceberg?
downwinder on 26/4/2022 at 00:36
as one of the most obscure secrets in a fan mission ever,most don't even know about it,i am pretty sure i was first to figure it out/excluding beta tester not sure if they ever figured it out and of course gort who added it of course knows about it
also on another level add how so many thief fan mission authors moved to France=i still trying to unravel the mystery of that
although i should make a board about it also but not sure anyone cares,when it comes down to a massively hard mission series where most will quit before getting there

The primal was used in the Children of Karras
That's actually interesting theory. I always wondering not how Karras children moves but how they know where to moves and how they recognize enemies and allies, decides to attack/flee etc.

Is there actually any solid proof of this theory? According to the wiki, the primal was basically conentrated in glyph magic before it disappeared by activating the final glyph.
After the events of Thief 3 the primal reappeared again, this time in stone form. Because of its corrupting properties and high concentration it corrupted many men influenced too long by its energy, turning them into zombie-like "Freaks".
So how did Karras could had possibly found and used the glyph magic? We know Karras children were steam-driven units, so it is probably plausible to assume a steam engine granted them the ability to move. We further know that in Thief 2 vinyl records were invented by the mechanist, thus granting them the ability to speak.
But we don´t know how the processing of information actually works (and there is also no conclusive theory about the revival of the masked servants from actual corpses).

i hate when people mix thief 2014 with the first 3 thief games :(

It'd be pretty cool if someone posted the explanation or the source for some of these, especially the bottom tiers.
"Fan missions you only see in your dreams"? :D

Well I put it in because despite it's issues (and bad writing) there are interesting things about the game imo, but in terms of the game itself, it's story and it's development. But that is just me.

It was just a suggestion on reddit, wouldn't be an iceberg without a few abstract/silly entries deep down! Also mousing over entries will often show a description I put in, some also are hyperlinks :cheeky:
EDIT: You can do it on the Iceberg's page (
https://icebergcharts.com/i/Thief)
Also also I put at the bottom Constantine's Sword, a mobile game I actually never knew about until very recently!
