I was searching for the release date of “Red God” and found a bunch of posts about a red rising tv show. The most recent comments were from 2020 and they were all hoping the show would be announced soon. I personally hope the show never happens. I can’t think of a single adaptation that was any good since LOTR. Even hobbit fell short. I’m a big fan of the graphic audio versions of the books so far and I believe this is as far into multi media as any great book should be pushed. This way it gives freedom to add music, sound effects, and choose vocal inflection but stays true to the stories because they still reading the authors words. The casting in the series has been magnificent. I was chilled and moved by the speech given by Ragnar to Mustang at the end of Golden Son. The voice actors really put their souls into it. An under-respected art if you ask me. Speaking of voice actors, in the original (non dramatized versions) of the books Lydia was cast very well in iron gold but for some reason they gave her a “high class” accent in the following books. I didn’t understand the switch. I’m willing to listen to anyone’s input or opinion on this.
What's on your mind?

I'm trying to gather information about the battle of Ceres. All I really know so far is that it happened during the Solar war, the Morning Star was involved, the Annihilo was badly damaged, two Republic destroyers were destroyed and the Republic won eventually. Any more info would be great.
Am I wrong or does this game kind of feel like the books?
Yes, the aliens and all are not totally in the book. but the whole diving out of the ship and the name feels a lot like the book
After talking with my wife I now disagree with my self on this (but don't see how to remove the post) as it would be highly controversial and may seem racist even though the intention would be the opposite.
Having a diverse cast and yet having a distinctive look to each color, makes casting difficult. However, because this is essentially a story of slavery and racism I believe it would resonate better if the casting of colors conformed to racial stereotype and then the TV show or movie would show the Sons of Ares being a group that is trying to shatter these stereotypes.
As such, I think all of the high colors should be cast as white actors and the reds should be black actors but with red hair and eyes. Darrow should definitely be Michael B Jordan and with his transformation to gold he should be made to look white. I think that pinks should be South East Asian to reflect the sex tourism industry of Thailand and Vietnam. Obsidians need to be white because of the clear Viking connection. The rest should be made up of different races as long as each color is consistently cast.
Does anyone know what the Jackal’s staff looks like? A visual of his staff would be cool. It is described as the pyramid of society with a jackal head on top. (Chapter 56 Morning Star)
I was just wondering if somebody rembers, which charakter used to ask his defeted oponents for their favourite author and then recited a poem by that author before he killed them.
What is the source of the term "Tier" and how does the Red Rising wiki community define it? I've been compiling a list of color specific "classes" or professions that "may" be considered tiers but I wasn't sure. For example, I assumed Lurcher was considered a tier for Grays but noticed it wasn't listed on the Gray page. I went to add it but wanted to pose this question first.
It seems like the way it's described on the Gold page is the best, which differentiates between social tiers and official tiers. However, some tiers are a profession and others are more of a title. For instance, a carver/Artificer is more of a profession whereas a Rose or a Stained is more like a certification and all of those are considered "tiers."
Here's a list of classes/tiers/professions that I'm curious if they should be considered "tiers":
PsychoTechs (Green)
HelmBlue (Blue)
ComBlue (Blue)
Lurcher (Gray)
Splinter (Pink)
Helldiver (Red)
Scuggi (Obsidian)
Ascomanni (Obsidian)
I am new to the world of Red Rising, but have listened to the first three books more times than I would like to admit. I am curious, the art on this page and other pages, has any of it been "approved" by the Pierce Brown folks? For instance the color pyramid/symbols on one of the other pages, I am curious if this is just an artistic interpretation, or, something directly from the author and his team.
The community is increasingly active, so little by little we have been updating.
We start with the infoboxes and now it's time for the PORTAL!
Keep in mind that it is new so possibly in the rest of the week some things will be changing.
So if you have suggestions, please leave a comment below.
Greetings to all ...
Good news for the Red Rising community ...
Increasingly Pierce Brown's work is attracting more fans, so the interwiki links of two sister communities have been activated.
The community of hungary and the community of turkey
kizil yukselis and Vörös lázadás respectively.
So help us link our articles with theirs and theirs with ours. Use 'tr: and hu:' at the footer of each of the articles in our community.
This will make this community more complete.
Greetings and thanks for your valuable contributions.

Please read this thread before adding and editing information on the site to get a better understanding of its format. This thread is to help format the Red Rising Wiki more uniformly, even with many different people adding/editing information on here. I will try to update it when necessary.
Double checking - Make sure you don't create pages/categories/characters that have already been created. Check and re-check.
Infoboxes - It's highly recommended that an Infobox be included in each character page, though some characters are quite minor it might not be necessary. Most commonly used Infoboxes are "Infobox character," "Infobox event," and "Infobox novel." There are also infoboxes specifically for the site, for planets, moons, and sectors.
U.S. vs U.K. spelling - It is not mandatory or priority to "correct" the spelling of a word if it's spelled the European way, and vice versa, as both spellings are correct, unless the word is actually misspelled.
Timeline - Information in the Timeline should be minimal. Details of event or character should be inputted into the page of said character/event. Any information inputted may be edited for that reason.
New pages - When creating a new page for a character (who doesn't have a page yet), the character name should be in the first line of the page, and it should be in bold type. The same should go for any other item, location, or event that has a page created for it.
Main page - Can only be edited by administrators of the wiki. If you feel there is something that needs to be added to the main page, please notify me or another administrator. If you wish to be an administrator, please contact me.
References List - References should be listed in 3 parts, the name of the source, the title, and the date of the source. The URL should be linked through the title. Example is "Pierce Brown on Reddit, Dark Age AMA - Bring a Knife to a Fistfight - July 26, 2019" and "A Drawing or Three - Pierce Brown and a tale of Red Rising - February 2014."
I feel like there are quite a few ion* weapon pages, I'm tempted to just create one page "ionWeapons", and list some notable examples, and have the old pages redirect to it. Does that seem like a reasonable thing to do? I don't want to step on anyone's toes.
We put a ban on the Dark Age page for 1 month after the release of the book, and now that the month is over, it is not open to editing, including spoilers.
Okay, so I recently started reading red rising, but I haven’t gotten so far yet (so no spoilers!), but I’m really confused about the whole like universe. So in the beginning of the book, there’s a map; but I don’t get it. Is Agea, Lukos, Valles Marineris and Yorkton cities or what? And what about the institute, what is that? Maybe I’m just stupid, or I haven’t paid enough attention. And then there’s a ‘real’ map where you can see mountains and rivers etc. and the houses like Juno, but where is that? Is it on earth? Thanks, I really hope that someone can help me with this - maybe it’s because I’m reading the book in danish, and it’s bad a translation, who knows?
