Hi! It's me again! : )

1. I saw that in another question that you've answered, you said that
Brooklyn's son(?) would've been named Nashville. Have you ever been there?
(It's my hometown.^_^)

2. I also noticed when you said that you think that Derek would have had
trouble with Goliath and Elisa's relationship. Why?

3. How did you and Gorebash meet?
Thanks for taking time out to answer my questions! Bye!

Hello Greg! I was wondering about the Isle of Avalon again! I was
wondering,

1). why the third race or others call upon Avalon as if it was a person?
Example, when the Magus in Avalon PT3 said: "Mystic Avalon, hear my plea,
fill me with your energy!", the Magus called to it and it responded in the
way a person may respond?

2). Can you say that Avalon is alive and knows the difference between
right
and wrong? I know that you might not understand what im asking but anyway!
Thanks once again!

This is not a question ( my apologies for that ). I just want to thank u
for this great show. I never saw it before ( it's on now ). I leave to see the
next episode, recording every one of them. Thanx, and if u will have a
chance to continue "Gargoyles", do not hesitate. By the way, sins I'm in
US only for one year ( I'm from Russia ) - "Gargoiles" is an internacional
show . I'm leaving in three days, so I have only one more episode to see:
"Reawakening II". Prey for me, I will be without your clan from
now on. Thanx again. Bye.

A thematic question that I've been wondering about for some time. In the
series, many characters were "immortal", including Oberon's Children,
Demona, and Macbeth. Oberon's Children were, for the most part, a petty,
arrogant, and often downright nasty lot, who treated mortals as mere
playthings. Demona was a crazed and ruthless genocidist and Macbeth did
his own share of shady things such as stealing the Scrolls of Merlin and
capturing the gargoyles to use as bait for a Demona-trap. Not to mention,
furthermore, that the "immortal-at-last-Xanatos" of "Future Tense" (even
though it turned out that it wasn't the real Xanatos but an illusion of
Puck's) was far more evil and ruthless than the original Xanatos ever was.
What I'm wondering is: was this intended as a major "moral" of
"Gargoyles"?
That immortality (or rather, physical, bodily immortality) is a corrupting
influence?

A quick question about gargoyle evolution that you might of answered. Ok,
I've noticed that Goliath's clan, the Japanese gargoyles, and the
Guatemalan gargoyles(excluding that snake like guy whose name escapes me) all look
like retiles(the wing structure more than anything), while Griff, Leo and Una
all look like birds(their wings have feathers/ploomage). Then there are people
that say the birds evolved from reptile, or dinosaurus, and Goliath's
little wing fingers look like the ones on a Peradactyle(I have no idea how to
spell it, the flying ones). I can understand how Goliath and Co. might have
missed out on 1,000 years of evolution(not that it would be much), but not
Japan's gargoyles. So I guess London's gargoyles just evolved differently, can you
clear this up for me?? And I guess this is question #2: Are there more
than three gargoyles in London?? Thanks for your time.

makes me so @#^%$ mad!) I'd also like to beg forgiveness if any of these
questions have been asked before. So here we go.

1) How long before the Eyre Building was built did Demona know Xanatos?

2) How long exactly did it take to build the Eyre anyway?(I've heard it
was six months but I find it hard to believe that a skyscraper that big could
be built in that short of time.) And two personal ones:

3) Do you ever get tired of answering our questions?(Sorry I had to ask

the internet for a short time and I'm still learning how to use it.)

Hi! I've enjoyed "Gargoyles" ever since it brightened up TDA's darkest
days in 1994. I do have a few questions which I hope have not yet been asked
here. Here they are:

1) In "Enter Macbeth," Xanatos has October 31 circled on his calendar as
the day he's released from jail. However, in "Double Jeopardy" the computer
date on the log shows Noember 15 and Xanatos is still in jail. Since the most
Xanatos got was a six-month sentence, he couldn't possibly have been in
jail November 15 of any year.

2) Is Jon Castaway one and the same as John Canmore? It's been my theory,
but he looks and sounds quite different.

3) Is Duval, the leader of the Illuminati, immortal? I believe you said
somewhere that he was, but that didn't mean he couldn't die. Huh?

4) If "Timedancer" had been produced, what would have happened to Brooklyn
in the "Gargoyles" series? Would he not be on it as he was time traveling?
And when he returned would he be older than Broadway & Lexington on
"Gargoyles" as well (I know he's already older, but I mean considerably).

5) Where can I obtain a copy of your "Master Plan?"

6) What other Disney shows have you worked on? I know "TaleSpin," and I
think "Darkwing Duck." Any others?

****Blaise walks in.**** Hello again Mr. Weisman. Sorry to ask a second
set of questions before my first set is answered (I strive to avoid that
so I don't bog you down with endless questions), but I have a few things on
my mind that I wanted to get down before I forgot. First of all, I won't ask
about the HOBGOBLIN OF LITTLE MINDS ep because a bunch of other people
have asked about it, and it would be redundant. Next, I can understand
your...disconcertion (?) with revealing suprises (like Merlin's
parentage). That's pretty much why I try my best to avoid asking questions about the
future in GARGOYLES and try to focus on the "Why and wherefore" (or
whatever) of the show (I don't ALWAYS succeed). So, I come to my Q's.
Both are pretty much about the show's evolution from the "comedy" development
into what we have today.

1) First, Elisa Maza: a) When the Archive first came out, you gave a
very nice explanation on why you made the name change from "Elisa Chavez" to
"Elisa Maza." However you never explained why you changed it from the
original "Morgan Reed," or where the surname "Bluestone" appeared in
there, nor why you made those changes. So, why those names and why the changes?
b) In addition to her name, Elisa went through a lot of concept changes
as well: school teacher, firefighter, museum worker (or something), mother,
descendent of Princess Catharine (please excuse my spelling on that),
etc.. Why so many changes and why those particular changes.

2) Now for Xanatos's original: Originally, Xavier was supposed to be a
descendant of the Magus (or whatever his character was called at the
time), and was supposed to be rather petulant; "Captain Hookish." Why the change
from this to the Machavellian, arguably Edmundish villain with no ties to
the Magus today?

3) Now Owen's first, Mr. Owen: An aardvark? What prompted that? I know
that the "comedy" development was a "no-go" and it's all pretty much a
moot point now, but I'm still curious. I mean, I like finding out something's
origins and seeing how it evolved. See you later, and I hope my questions
aren't too much of a bother. Have a nice day! ****Blaise dissolves.****

Hey, Greg. I just wanted to start out by saying that I loved Gargoyles.
Still do. Unfortunately, I'm not in your target age range. But there's at
least one college student who raves about the show regularly. I especially
enjoy the mythology you've weaved into the series. I haven't seen all the
episodes yet, but I plan to eventually.
Now. On to the questions.

1) Here's my stab at the Arthurian survivors. Seven, right? 1) Arthur 2)
Merlin 3) Fisher King 4) Lady of the Lake 5) Morgan le Fay 6) Nimue 7)
Galahad

2) a:You've mentioned that you've tried to get Gargoyles in other media.
I'm curious. If you had the option of using any medium, TV live, film live,
books, comic books, TV animation, film animation, which would you pick?
I'm aware that in real-world terms, you take what you can. But if you had the
choice, which would best fit your story? b: Along similar lines, do you
see parts of the master plan changing depending on which medium you get? I
read a novelization of Batman's Knightfall thread, that said that it changed
some stuff because the different media required different pacing and other
stuff.... Any similar changes for you that you can see? If there are, care
to elaborate on those?

3) Have you even seen all the episodes of TGC? I haven't, myself. Though I
found out I have one on tape.

4) Would Disney allow you to do Gargoyles on another medium anyway? I
thought they owned everything related to Gargoyles...? Do you think they
would have a reason to not let you write a Gargoyles book or something if
you got the opportunity?

Dear Mr.Wiseman
I am a Gargoyle fan ever since watchng gargoyles! maybe before that I
have now started to look into gargoyle history and learn more aboutt hem as I
can even try t get some from the show. I was wondering if the Gargoyles
series would have still been on today would you have the seris branch off into
diffrent direction's?(example TGC Focus on the gargoyles and human's
living together, Gargoyles focus on Elisa's and Goliath's relationship)
Also I was wondering where did you get the main Idea for Gargoyles? cause
heard certian thing's how gargoyles came to be. But I was wondering if any
of the main Idea's that helped you along came from a book. If so what
book?

Anonymous writes...

Hi, Greg! I'm glad I found this one, and to find I'm not the only
Gargoyle-fan in the world (and not the ony one in Germany!). So here are
some questions of me (trying to be short):

1. Not knowing if the ratings went down with the 3rd season or before - if
they were already down in the second season, why DID Disney want a third
season made?

2. One concerning your (possible) future work on the spin-offs - where did
you want to take your time for all those things (and possibly even write
more eps of the original Gargoyles)? Or haven't you planned anything for
this case?

3. Just if I'm guessing right - I know that female Gargoyles are fertile
once every 20 years, and I know that Gargoyles mostly die in battle (or at
least get killed somehow before getting old). Am I right that those
females, besides of that 20-year-rhythm, are fertile until they die, even when
dying of age? If not, at what age ends their fertility?

4. You answered one time that Tom had centuries to learn one or two little
spells, like the one for the boat he used. Perhaps it really was not
complicated, because Goliath learned it by hearing Tom cast it. But
couldn't have Tom or one of the Gargoyles living on Avalon learned some more spells
from the Magus (who actually remembered some without the Grimorum)? Or if
casting spells IS that complicated, how could Goliath do it that easy (he
even was able to control the Phoenix Gate - well, control is perhaps the
wrong word, should be something like invoke or use, I guess)?

5. Finally (for now) a question about this wonderful phenomenon named
"time". The past cannot be changed. But when Brooklyn arives 2158 in
TimeDancer, 1996 IS past and cannot be changed. Sure, he returns there
(then - whatever), but having at least partially seen the past, can he
change the future, and so change the past from the 2158-point-of-view?
Thanks for your time both making the show and answering the questions.
Hope the movie will come and Disney will get you back to make us happy again
with new eps. Until next time!

Thanks in advance for putting up with me-- I mean, *us* :)-- and our
endlessly inane questions, Greg!

[1] Do the other London gargs also exhibit heraldic characteristics? And
if you feel like revealing it right now, what sort of fauna would they
have taken after?

[2] We were discussing various eps of TGC in the Comment Room a while
ago. One of the topics that came up was Taurus' shocked reaction to the
meat-packing house in "Seeing Isn't Believing". It amused many of the
commenters, but I felt that it seemed entirely out place and that the TGC
writers simply couldn't resist sticking in that little joke. I'm aware
that you didn't supervise the production of the other 12 episodes, but I'd like
to hear your take on it.

[3] Of course, the question of anthropomorph cannibalism in animation
soon (and perhaps inevitably :P) arose. F'rinstance, examples of Donald Duck
happily munching on roast turkey legs and such are rife throughout various
Disney cartoons. I'm curious to know how this apparent lack of taboo
might apply to "Gargoyles", a much more serious show. Would Taurus necessarily
object to gnawing on a big ol' tasty chunk of top sirloin? And would it
repulse any of the London gargs to eat their respective animal
ounterparts? --I'm guessing unicorns, lions, and griffins aren't too
common around the English countryside, but it's still something to wonder about.
^_^

[4] Are the Guatemalan gargs vegetarians (if they eat anything at all)?

[5] Totally unrelated to the theme I got going here, but oh well: Do you
care to relate any details about the little clocktower-fixing ep idea that
you scrapped after "Hunter's Moon"? I love those little story bits that
you have every now and then!

Anonymous writes...

Hello Mr. Weisman!!

1) Can I call you Greg?

2) I was really in a little weird spell when I watched Hunter's Moon.
Demona, apparently, had been collected artifacts over a course of 500
years. First the Midichi (I probably didn't spell that right) Tablet in Italy and
then the Praying Gargoyle in France and then the CV-1000 and DX stuff in
the 90's. What I'm wondering is, obviously, the CV-1000 and other thing
wouldn't have been developed when Demona started stealing the stuff for her master
plan, and (unless she invented it) she couldn't have expected them to be
developed, so do you have some explanation for that that I missed?

3) How do you do it?!?!? I've watched gargoyles since it first came out.
There might be a single line mentioned in the first ep that comes back to
haunt us in the second season. For instance, in "Temptation" Demona
mentioned that she had watched Humanity evolve, but we didn't learn what
she meant till "City of Stone" or the mentions of Oberon in "The Mirror," it
made me, personally, see Oberon as some non-corporeal, all-seeing being
who created and de-created with the wave of a hand. But then we meet Oberon.
The moment I saw him, even before I heard his name (but I got a few hints from
the "Previously, on Gargoyles .. .") I knew who he was. Just the way you
design the series. You can't miss one episode without missing a huge story
line. How do you plan it like that?

4) Do you think fanfiction is a good idea Thanx for your time, bye-bye for
now!

Hi I'd like to thank you for answer fan questions. You Rock! All Hail

Magus or Katherine?

died?

A few more questions:

1. I've noticed that one of the questions you seem to be asked most often
was "What did Titania whisper to Fox?" Now, you'll be relieved to know
that I won't ask you what she whispered. What I will ask instead is: Did you
expect to get a lot of questions about what Titania whispered when you (or
whoever else on the production team had that idea) came up with that idea?
And am I correct in the assumption that it was deliberately intended to be
an eternal mystery that would never be answered?

2. You mentioned in your last batch of responses an episode that you'd
planned to make, but never did, entitled "Hobgoblin of Little Minds". Was
that the same as the never-made controversial two-parter that you
mentioned elsewhere?

3. What inspired the concept of gargoyle beasts?

4. What inspired the concept of English gargoyles looking like winged
lions, unicorns, and other heraldic animals?

5. Any particular reason why the production team chose Lexington as the
traitor in "Future Tense"? I can see easily enough the reason for one of
the gargoyles being a traitor - a great way to really shock Goliath and
break him down still further - but what made you choose Lexington over any
of the other members of the clan?

Sorry to be continuously over the head with Demona questions. Anyway,
here's another. At some point, Demona has this genuine revelation that
she is responsible for all the misery in her life, Wyvern, MacBeth, her
thousand years of lonliness. Maybe I'm assuming to much but I take it her
previously stellar sense of self deception will be of no avail to her now. She is
forced to acknowledge the truth. So, with all of this self blame slamming
into her like a train wreck, a very sizeable one at that, what becomes her
new anchor. As I have mentioned in the past, what becomes her new reason
to go on.

1. I read your latest update, and sympathized with your confessed problems
over having given away the fact that Oberon was Merlin's father - and with
the general "letting slip" over this or that element about the series in
general. However, if it makes you feel any better, I'll say that
sometimes your revelations do actually *increase* my interest and hopes that the
series will be revised someday. When you revealed that Duval was the
Fisher King, for example, it actually raised (in my mind) more questions than it
answered. Likewise, when you said that the Illuminati were after the
gargoyles because they know some things, that got me wondering what those
things were (don't worry, I'm not going to ask you about them here), and
made me hope for a revival of the series in some form so that we could
someday learn the answers. At any rate, I'd say that I certainly don't
blame you for choosing to keep silent on these things; I'd do the same in
your shoes.

2. Related to your statements about Merlin: I was interested in the bit
about Oberon being Merlin's dad, since Merlin's legendary parentage (the
son of a non-human being) had long interested me. But one thing I'm curious
about: how much of a Standards and Practices problem do you suppose
Merlin's illegitimacy (which you confirmed in your last update) would have been?
(For that matter, I imagine that a lot of the main elements in the
Arthurian legend - Lancelot and Guinevere, for example - would have been real
Standards and Practices headaches).

3. What, in your opinion, is the population number (in round numbers) of
the Third Race at the time of the Gathering?

1. You said that the Phoenix Gate is caught in some sort of eternal time
loop. Is that one reason for its name? As in - the eternal time loop of
the Gate as a parallel to the legendary Phoenix rising from its own ashes,
both being an eternal cycle?

2. More a comment than a question: I didn't have any problems with the
time loops in "Gargoyles", and in fact, not only understood the ones in "Vows",
"Avalon", and "M.I.A.", but even enjoyed them thoroughly. (I think that
part of the reason for this is that I've been writing a time travel novel
for many years - conceived long before "Gargoyles" ever came out - which
used a similar time loop as its basic concept, so I felt quite at home
with the ones in the series). I just thought that you might like to know that
one person in the audience got them.

3. What metal is Guardian Tom's sword and armor supposed to be made of?
(Obviously not iron).

4. Supposedly, faerie magic won't work on iron. So how was Oberon and
Titania able to work magic on a Xanatos clad in a suit of iron armor in
"The Gathering Part Two" (Oberon sending him hurtling into the battlements, and
Titania paralyzing him alongside Goliath and Puck)?

5. Why did the Weird Sisters get Demona to reveal the changed access code
to Xanatos and Goliath (besides the needs of the plotline)? Unlike their
other interventions (such as stopping Demona and Macbeth from killing each
other), it wasn't necessary for their schemes for the "Reconquest" of Avalon, so
why did they go out of their way to save the city? (That's the main reason
why I was convinced for a long time that their later behavior was all an act,
in fact, until you confirmed that they really were the petty vengeful beings
that they appeared to be in "Avalon" and "Ill Met By Moonlight").

6. How does Owen explain that stone hand of his to people (other than
those in on the secret like Xanatos) whom he meets with? I can safely assume
that very few people would believe him if he said that it got that way due to
dipping it into a magic cauldron :)

7. Was the Cauldron of Life partly inspired by the magical cauldrons of
Celtic mythology?

8. You mentioned that the general public wouldn't have realized (at least,
not for quite a long while) that the gargoyles were sentient beings. When
the New Olympians showed up, would the humans have similarly had problems
understanding that Taurus and Co. were sentient beings?

Hi Greg. I have a few questions about the world of 2158 that I was
wondering if you could answer.

1) How are things around the world politically? 1a) Are there still things
like arms races between countries (like we are seeing right now in Asia)?
1b) Are most countries working together in the UN (or something like the
UN)? 1c) Would you say for the most part, there is world peace?

2) Does the human population know about the fae? Or have they kept
themselves a secret?

3) Are the fae still on Avalon with Oberon?

4) How far do you see space travel to have advanced?

5) Is Demona still in charge of Nightstone? For that matter, does
Nightstone even still exist?

6) This isn't about 2158, but I wanted to ask anyway. During the
Gathering, Oberon called for his children. Now the question is, would his children
be only pure fae or would they include those beings who had a single parent
that was fae, or just anyone that had any fae blood in them?

First off, Greg,thanks for producing the best animated series I have ever
seen. More thanks to all the other Gargoyles fans for keeping this show
alive. Now, on to the questions:

1) How affected would gargoyles be to disease,whether from humans or
among their own kind?

2) We know that humans and fays can reproduce, but what about humans and
gargoyles? Would thatbe possible, or would the genetic differences be too
great?

3)Did you have any future plans for the mutates and clones?

4)What about the New Olympians?

5)If Disney had given you free rein over the show after Season 2, how long
could you (or would you) have kept the show going?

6)Did you have any major problems with the Disney censors over
"inappropriate" content?

Had her plans suceeded, would Demona's "Hunter's Moon" virus have had any
effect on Delilah?

I have a question regarding the episode "Eye of the Beholder." When Fox
wore the Eye of Odin, it changed her into the werewolf(or is it
werefox?)creature. Was this simply meant to be a representation of the
huntress/predator side of her nature, or was it in some way a
manifestation of the kind of power she could have wielded had she been taught to use her
magic as she grew up? I ask this because most of the Children of Oberon we
saw in the series demonstrated an ability to change their shape, and of
the people we saw put on the Eye( Goliath, Fox, and the Archmage), only Fox
was turned into shapeshifter. Goliath and the Archmage only changed into a new
form when they first put the Eye on, and then that form was maintained
until the Eye was removed.

1. In "Vows" and "Revelations", the Illuminati symbol is a pyramid with an
eye on top - that symbol also happens to appear on the back of the
one-dollar-bill. Is there (in the Gargoyles Universe) some ominous
connection here?

2. In "Her Brother's Keeper", Xanatos had an upstate retreat called
Xanadu. Was the name taken from Coleridge's "Kublai Khan", or from "Citizen Kane"?

3. Why wasn't Lexington as upset about Angela choosing Broadway as
Brooklyn was? Was it because he was already developing a close friendship with
Alex, or because Brooklyn's more inclined to wallowing in self-pity? (Actually,
I think that it's a combination of the two, but I'd like to know what your
take on this is).

4. Your general disappointment with "The Goliath Chronicles" is well-known
(and an attitude shared by most Gargoyles fans) - but, did the new
production team do anything in the 12 episodes following "The Journey"
that you did think worked rather well or approved of? You did mention in your
last response that you rather liked the "Thailog's death" scene they did
in "Genesis Undone".

One more question. Since you mentioned in your last batch of responses
that King Arthur and Griff would visit the South Pole in the course of their
search for Merlin - what effect would the six-month day/six-month night at
the Poles have on a gargoyle's biological clock?

1) My thoughts on the Camelot Seven: Arthur, Merlin, the Lady of the Lake
are the gimmes... others I'd guess would be Perceval (due to other hints
you've dropped), Galahad, Morgana le Fay, and Nimue.

2) You've said that, in TimeDancer, Brooklyn 'never really gets ahold of
[the Phoenix Gate]'. So, then, how do his timedancing travels work, if he
doesn't physically carry the Gate? Or did I misunderstand what you said
and he *does* carry the Gate? 3) Another TimeDancer question: Is there an
average length for one of Brooklyn's stays in a given time and place, or
does it vary widely (i.e., a few seconds to months or years)? Thanks in
advance.

Very fast:

1) From ep 1, Captain of the Guard said inhabitants of Wyvern were, ". . .
not my people." Care to elaborate?

2) You've probably been deluged with Merlin stuff since that mini-series,
so more straw for the camel's back: Didja notice the uncanny resemblance of
Frik to Puck? Yowza.

3) Finally, my ideas for the Camelot Seven: Art, Merlin, the Lady of the
Lake, Guenivere, Morgan LeFay (pleeeeeeese), Lancelot, and Mordred, on the
basis that Oberon doesn't count. Thank you for your time

Hi Greg! Which gargoyles story would you have most wanted to bring to
life but never got the chance to do? In other words, if someone came up to you
and gave you the chance to make one more episode (and let's assume here
that any background info needed to understand that episode would be provided,
so that it doesn't have to directly follow the eps of the last season), what
would that episode be? Since this is a broad question, let me ask it in
more specific chunks (unless you want to describe the whole ep, which I
wouldn't mind at all).
1) Which characters would it center around?
2) Which spinoff would it be in (i.e. Dark Ages, TimeDancer, etc.)
3) What would the main plot points be? *note: if you have no specific answers
for any of the above Q's, could you at least provide us with a general idea of
the one story you'd most like to create? Thanks!

First off, I have to tell you that I really appreciated the recaps in the
beginning of each episode. I only saw gargoyles every saturday, and thus
the continuity got completely screwed, and episodes were shown in a random
order. Plus, I was rather disappointed with the flying steel monsters in
"Awakenings" and the way the trio was portrayed in "Thrill of the Hunt" so
the show didn't hook me immediately. (I did like Part 1 and 2 of
awakenings) However, watching "Eye of the Storm" one morning got me completely hooked,
and soon I was scrambling to recover what I had been missing. (I still
have yet to see "The Mirror", "The Price", "Turf", and "City of Stone Pt 1."
Since all most of my questions have been asked for mine will be rather
brief.

1. Thailog seems to hold a lot of anger towards Angela, is this because
of Goliath's seeming acceptance of her and Goliath's rejection of him?

2. Did Thailog create any clones of Bronx? I would think that he would be
most inclined to have servants that were not intelligent enough to outgrow
their programming (and thus turn on him).

3. Did Thailog Clone more than one copy of each gargoyle?

4. My guesses for those still alive from the Arthurian period? Arthur,
Merlin, Lady of the Lake (thanks for the gimmes) Lancelot, The Green
Knight, Morgana la Fay, and taking a shot in the dark... mmm... Galahad?

****Blaise crashes through the door.**** Sorry, I'll fix that. Well,
first I wanted to say that I agree with you; the Broadway/Angela relationship
was not rushed. Next, I have a question:

1) When you went through all the Shakespeare plays, you listed MERCHANT OF
VENICE as problematic. Care to expand on that? I ask this because I had
the pleasure of portraying Shylock (an excellent character, in my opinion)
in a production of that play, and I am interested to hear what others
think of it.

2) My second question deals with the Arthurian guessing game (all my ideas
have already been listed, but I'll do them anyway); Are the survivors
Arthur, Merlin, the Lady of the Lake, Percival (sp?), Nimue, Morgan la
Fey, and Bedivere? (NOTE: I would have put "Blaise" on that list, but he is
not as famous or wide-spread a character of Arthurian legends as the rest of
them are) Well, that's about it. Oh, BTW, you're explanation on Hudson's
accent was great. It really makes a lot of sense to me why you did it
that way. Have a nice day! ****Blaise fixes the door on his way out.****

Hi there, hope things are OK with you. 1) My vote for the seven
'Arthurians' would be Arthur, Merlin, Guenever, Nimue, Gawain, Morgan le Fay and
Mordred. I left out Launcelot as I think it would make for better stories without,
but I can't say why due to the rules. Fame ? Glory ? as it's 'Ask Greg'
not 'Tell Greg' I suppose I'd better try a question ummm..... 2) I thought
that the portrayal of Anubis was great and very thought provoking, did you have
any plans to use any of the ancient Egyptian myths or make use of the Gods
and Goddesses ?
