At the end of "Mark Of The Panther" was that little spider scurrying away Anansi making an unnoticible escape, or was it just any other spider?
Anansi.
Oops! I spelled Antarctica wrong. My bad. :) [kicks evil typo]
And, well, while I'm at it, let me ask you this. Could Oberon ever punish somebody if he had a very good reason?
If the person he wishes to punish is mortal, can he punish him? Or does his law prevent him from messing with the lives of mortals?
Thank you for your time. :)
If he can come up with an excuse to bend his law he can do it.
How did the Banshee get around Oberon's non-intervention edict when she kidnapped Goliath, Elisa, and Angela, and took them to Cairn na Culainn for interrogation?
Her excuse was she thought they were agents of Oberon. The scent of Avalon was upon them, so she thought she wasn't interfering with mortals. Just with Oberon. Of course, she did this at her own peril. But there was nothing magical preventing her from doing it.
To Duncan Devlin who said: "I don't quite understand the response. From my experience, not ALL things are true."
Let me just paraphrase a sentence of Terry Pratchett: "All things are true, for a given value of 'true' "
Yeah. Exactly.
By the way, thanks for reading the questions. It's very refreshing.
Who's Terry Pratchett?
How does Hydras, Dragons, Harpies, Cerberus and all other mythological animals/creatures fit in the three races?
Some may have been Children of Oberon (or Mab). Others may have been New Olympians or the like. That is half-breeds. Some may have been exagerations of something else all together.
In response to LSZ's many posts: i think what she wants to know is what some of the Faes' personify. Like how the Greek Olympians each personified (though how well is up for grabs) various attributes or crafts; Athena personified wisdom and defensive warfare, Ares war, Appollo truth and the arts. In the Garg's universe, Anubis clearly personifies death.
LSZ, you can correct me if i'm wrong, but i think that's what she means.
I thought that too at first, but then some of LSZ's questions didn't seem to fit that idea. Anyway, I'm not going to run down a list of every mythological being and list "affiliations" or "connections" or whatever it is we're talking about. Use common sense and do a bit of research and nine times out of ten, you'll get the answer without me.
Ok, first of all; most of the Gargoyles villains can be counted as amorals(like Xanatos), grays(Macbeth), insane-sufferers(Demona), and genuinely evil/malicious and remorseless folks like Proteus and perhaps Jackal and Hyena.
All of them can be, to some extent, perhaps with the exception of Macbeth, considered evil or selfishly uncaring. Still, Oberon cannot be considered evil; he is horribly arrogant, but he has his own sense of nobility.
But is Mab evil? Is she Chaos in the dark trickster manner of Raven and presumably Loki? Is she just a more petty version of Oberon? Is she genuinely malicious and nasty ala Hakon and Proteus? Is she gray-but-still-dark like Duval?
So what is Mab?
1) What is her moral worth in comparison to Oberon?
2) What is she compared to the other Gargoyles villain-types?
She's MAD, I tell you, MAD, MAD! BWAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAAAAA
1. LSZ, haven't you learned by now that I REFUSE to QUANTIFY stuff for you?
2. See above.
1) Did Oberon have any help in defeating Mab?
2) Did Oberon use trickery?
1. Yes.
2. Some.
Hmm. Ok, good answer to the iron question, I'll admit. Still, is there any Fae Science in a Gargoyle-Science-esque answer on why iron harms the fae?
I'm not sure I understand the question.
You looking for chemical reactions?
If the humans of (time of Future Gargoyle series) know 'a lot' about the origins of the New Olympians, do they know that the fae are real?
Largely, no.
But again, I'd prefer if everyone held off asking anymore questions about what WAS Gargoyles 2158 until I make the announcement regarding it's revamping. Watch for it at this site.
