Hi Greg! I promise I'll try to ask fewer questions this time. 1) Why did
Owen freak out when Anastasia mentioned that she had remarried her first
husband? 2) What did Titania do to provoke Oberon into exiling everyone
from Avalon? 3) What were the exact terms of the exile? 4) Just how upset
is Owen/Puck about being eternally banished from Avalon? 5) Does Owen ever
accidentally hurt himself with that stone arm? Like maybe turning over in
bed and whacking himself in the forehead? 6) How much time passed between
"Ill Met By Moonlight" and "The Gathering"? 7) Why did Owen return to help
Xanatos in "The Gathering"? 8) Does Owen just have one tie, or does he have
lots of identical ties? (I like pointless questions. Sue me.) 9) If Puck is
only allowed to use his powers when teaching or protecting Alex, how did he
change back into Owen at the end of "The Gathering"? 10) Could you please
try to clear up the whole Owen/Puck thing? (*sigh* Let me try to clarify
that. People have lots of different ideas about the exact nature of
Owen/Puck, like just how separate they are, (or if the term "they" would
even appliy to "them")... Ack! I don't think I can explain what I mean any
better without breaking the rules! I really hope you understand what I
mean.) Would you believe that I actually came in here to ask *one*
question? Sheesh... Anyway, thanks!
Greg responds...
1) He knew her first husband was Oberon.
2) I'm not revealing that right now.
3) I'm not sure how exact a guy Oberon was (or is). Basically, it was get
out there and live among the mortals 'til I gather you back. Which I
probably won't do for about 1000 years.
4) It's a real blow. He didn't want to go back now, but that's not the same
as being banished from your home forever.
5) Owen is much too competent for that. Don't you agree?
6) Not too much. Ask me again when I've done the whole timeline thing.
7) Basically, he cared too much not to.
8) He has a few ties, but he favors a certain style.
9) That's his "non-powered" form. The one he's stuck with when he isn't
teaching or protecting Alex.
10) I think I've answered this a lot, so I'd recommend checking the
archives for a more complete answer. Basically, Owen is one of Puck's many
identities. A persona Puck created. Owen is, however, a persona that Puck
has a lot invested in. They ARE one guy though. I hope that answers your
question. I don't really think it's that confusing. Are you sure you're not
over-thinking it? It's pretty much what Puck said it was in "The Gathering,
Part II." (GDW / 12-24-97)
