Hi,

I've added a big part to my Lion's Cove Teasers on my page. (At least, big
compared to what I had up till now ;-)

Here it is:

I just added Lumina and his winged friend to the page (finally!)

Enjoy! Tell me what you think!

shiri ~

a horse named "horse"? pegasus would be what he _is_, and probably fall
under the CW creature category.
Well, the reason I named him pegasus is because I tried other names and, well,
they didn't work. Remember that I said that Lumina & Peg are immortal -
Pegasus might even be the same one from greek mythology.
I will try to find another name, but I was also thinkin' about this pun -
"Asus" in hebrew means "the horse", so it was like saying his name was "Peg
the horse". Only problem is, nobody will get it ;-)

(nice alternative head on lumina, btw! ~ an
excelent example of how changing just one element can create a totally
different character.)

Thanks. The second I got that head from the legoredo fort, I knew there could
be only one use for it in MY world. It just fits so well.

perhaps lumina could name his winged friend so he'd
qualify as a unique character... do i smell another story brewing!?

As I said, I'll try that. But meanwhile I have another storyline with him
brewing (indirectly inspired by Pawel) and he's gonna play a big role there,
so I dunno. Maybe.


IIRC, Pegasus was a specific individual.  In fact, I'm not even sure if there
were any other flying horses in Greek mythology.  AFAIK, only recent works of
fantasy fiction (most notably AD&D) have made him into a specific species
called Pegasi.  'Course, I've got some winged horses I created many a year a
ago (before Dragon wings came out) that I call Pegasi.  ;)

I think you're right...

you are exactly right, jeff! the story of perseus in which pegasus was
born, is my favorite in greek mythos! we could list these as "winged
horses" in the CW creatures section, and let the names fall where they may.
i forsee many people using this type of creature in CW, as i myself have
few. ;-)

I agree -it's better to just give a category.

(...) Shiri, Ma Shlomech, I would've gotten it. ;) By the way, in reference to your reply to my last message, yes, my Hebrew is a little rusty, but also I wasn't sure if you male or female so I figured it would be better to use the masculine form. (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)
