| | Overarching mythologies: Prophecy/Predetermination — A good deal of Alias revolves around the prophecies of Milo Rambaldi. We are first introduced to a prophecy about a woman who will "render the greatest power unto utter desolation." Later, as Sloane completes part of the Rambaldi prophecy we learn that he has received his own prophetic message. The Rambaldi storyline seemed to come to a close with the conclusion of Elena Derevko's endgame at the end of season four, but the fifth season introduced its own "prophet" (also in pursuit of Rambaldi) in the form of the mysterious organization known as Prophet Five, which ended up being a reference to Rambaldi and the final part of his endgame, immortality, which had been set up in the first season (though this was only one part of his plan. The first part was world peace, which Elena Derevko perverted and attempted in Season 4). | | Solved mysteries: | | Unsolved mysteries: | Most addictive qualities:
