Three problems with that theory.
1. Someone pointed out that the...one interactive prologue thing had something important with the name "angel.something"
2. There are far, far more common affectations. Like "hon," "darling," "sweetie."
3. That's pretty dull.
Does that prologue-y thing still exist someplace?
Yes. The question is...where?
Right here you silly peoples

Thank you! I was late to the party, and it isn't linked in the OP so far as I can see.

Also I suck at this. Music's groovy though.

No. We shall not let Al get the ring. He will use it for his own evil machinations. The last thing we need is for this to become a vampire love story...
He thinks this isn't already a vampire love story!

The prologue isn't posted on the front page because the passwords haven't been revealed, I think.

A grey soul star border? Something about Riltia?

Also, who wants to start some speculating about the meaning of Betweenford's name?

So far we just have:
Between
Ford: A place where a body of water is shallow enough to cross, or a verb meaning to cross at a ford
Angel: From the blue woman, and the flash page's title, seeing as he's one of two characters in it, we can pretty solidly link it to him.

A strange jumble of words, but it likely is a large hint concerning who and what he is.
So we could read it as:
1. Angel between crossings.
2. The crossing between angels.
3. Angels cross between.
4. Between an angel and a body of water.
5. Between bodies of water relating to angels?

And so on. It's late, and I'm likely incoherent, so if this post is stupid I'll change it in the morning.

Perhaps its how the mod does it. He does it with passion and...a touch of his own work ;P

The file name for the Soul star border is called Astral_Influx, and is blue when it is by itself. But it turns white when it is in loading screen form.

I doubt it. It's much like the loading animation from Homestuck, I think. We shouldn't give everything plot importance.

I think we should also consider where we first found him--when we "broke" the game by going up on the first level. There's also no proof that Floe was referring to BF as an angel, as opposed to using a nickname or affectation, and no proof that she was right if she was calling him an angel.
Betweenford probably usually sticks to guarding the ways to get from zone to zone--lining up staircases, maintaining teleporters, stuff like that.

Actually, we went down. It should've lead to DL2, but we ended up in between rooms.

This is the Warrens of Oric the Awesome, where a throwaway comment made by somebody at the first page turns into a major plot point of the story.

To reiterate, the actual Soul Star sprite contained within the flash is blue....
