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 ;-)

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.

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.

I think you're right...

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. (...) (25 years ago, 31-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)
