Galidor - Key Props

Key Props

  • The Map: A circular gray device with two large grips on the sides with finger-shaped grooves and an old TV-set-shaped monitor in the middle that is capable of presenting a three-dimensional globe (acting as the equator) or a radar-like short range tracker. The map is also capable of floating by itself and is capable of plugging into the center console and acting as the guidance system for the egg, as well as showing data for both Earth as well as the Outer Dimension.
  • The Communicator Watch: Self-explantory. Nicholas wears the watch with the face on the inside of his wrist, a character trait provided by actor Ewald.
  • The Journal: The stranger's journal, which was hidden in the Monument of Knowledge on Dreejal-Vin. It contains schematics, diagrams, and diary entries of the Stranger's journey through the Outer Dimension. Nick continues writing in the journal when he receives it. While the book appears to be a regular leather and paper book, it is in fact made out of hyperglinch energy (like the Keyfrags) meaning it can be reconstituted if destroyed, and may also mean it has an inexhaustible supply of paper (not confirmed).
  • The Pack: A three-strapped backpack that Nicholas finds in Arbo. Originally belonged to the Stranger, and was found full of notes, pens, and other "junk."
  • Keyfrags: Parts of the key to Galidor, shards of metal that can be combined into the shape of an egg. They are usually found in a plastic container with fingerprint identifiers to keep them safe. The key is capable of putting itself together (presumably some sort of magnetism) to make sure that it is put together properly.

Famous quotes containing the words key and/or props:

    “Power, in Case’s world, meant corporate power. The zaibatsus, the multinationals ..., had ... attained a kind of immortality. You couldn’t kill a zaibatsu by assassinating a dozen key executives; there were others waiting to step up the ladder; assume the vacated position, access the vast banks of corporate memory.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “I hate cheap pictures. I hate pictures that make people look like they’re not worth much, just to prove a photographer’s point. I hate when they take a picture of someone pickin’ their nose or yawning. It’s so cheap. A lot of it is a big ego trip. You use people as props instead of as people.”
    —Jill Freedman (b. 1939)
