((I figured I should PROBABLY do this because it will eventually clear up a lot of his behavior as time progresses. This will be edited from time to time with more relevances...Possibly with other avatars as he meets them ( Read more... )

Uhm, would he be Lucifer in any case? :x There's a Lucifer in Sandman lol

XD I'd say it's a very distinct possibility. I have to finish the currently out Young Wizards books. Then I'm going to go chasing all the Sandman books from my library network, since half of them are like 5 or 6 towns away. ^^ I know next to nothing about the Sandman. Besides Jill Thompson's graphic novel retelling of Season of Mists(At Death's Door) and other people's short stories from Sandman: The Book of Dreams.

XD This whole RPG is making me do research into series I'd NEVER have touched otherwise. Well, I might have ended up touching on Sandman eventually...Since I read At Death's Door long before I joined here. ^^

Ahh, okay. It would be sooo interesting to have them meet since Death thinks that she's not a bad thing, not really lol XD

^^ Yeah...It would be interesting to say the least and probably a lot more confusing. XD Until I read up I think he's somewhat a link between Destruction, Despair and Desire in the Sandman world. If that makes any sense at all, which I'm not personally sure if it does. He likes worlds that are lost, both to hope and to his power. He prefers darkness to the light. His chief currency in his business is pain in any of its forms. And to get to the pain and darkness and loss of hope, he often plays with the desires of the Others around him.

And Death being good... My personal opinion is that Death in her Sandman embodiment, is the one Power in his world who created Timeheart--a version of heaven, the one place where what is loved lives forever. According to the whales that would mean the Tenth Lord of the Humours, the Silent Lord during the Whale's Choice. It's not quite clear, but that might mean that she's actually his 'younger brother' that he isn't very fond of--The One's Champion--or possibly another younger sibling. ^^

On the Lone One and Lucifer Morningstar, I would say that they may be aspects of the same thing but they aren't the same person. Lucifer is (probably) the older twin of Michael Demscbrbwbebw (I can never write that correctly) and there's some whole creation Lucifer-Michael-powers etc etc thing that goes along with them.

Perhaps Lucifer is an aspect of the Lone Power that made a different Choice? Or was written a different way, or whatnot. He's of a different destiny, so to speak. They two aren't not the same thing, but they aren't the same thing at the same time, rofl.

As Sandman's Lucifer does things I cannot see the Lone Power doing. For one, the triumvate of hell. Sharing power, and another is that Lucifer's two biggest problems are freedom and pride. In Sandman it almost seems more like freedom than pride, and there is even the scene where he grudgingly says that God did a good job with the sunset ( ... )

Another random comment. Suppose the Lone Power has met Lucifer? 'cuz yes. Random question.
