rpanons | [D] Reading an actual book

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

Hm. I guess that poses the question of how much book canon they're using for movie canon. On one hand, they're clearly meant to be two separate things. On the other hand, separate doesn't mean they're throwing their arms up in the air and chucking book canon entirely. Since thinking about it, you could argue that Father Time's thing could make Tooth's schtick redundant since they'd both probably deal in memories (among other things.)

So, thinking way too hard about this, there's probably actually one of two ways to go about coming up with a list of spirits:

1. Figure out major holidays, pull spirits from there.
2. Figure out concepts/values held across humanity (hope, inspiration, wonder, etc.) and then assign spirits to those concepts/values.

I think the values thing only really applies to official Guardians, so unless we get some info from somewhere saying the Groundhog and Leprechaun and such also represent those sort of things then the second method is probably just making things unnecessarily difficult.

And no need to just restrict it to Holidays! Given Tooth, Sandy, Pitch, Jack and MiM are all not tied to a specific holiday. It's definitely a good way to come up with some, like the Halloween ones mentioned above, but not a necessary requirement either! One could certainly come up with figures for holidays without an existing persona, but otherwise any character of myth seems to be fair game.
