Quote from: techmaster-glitch on May 02, 2007, 12:46:51 AMYeah, I imagine that pretty much all the Creature Races would have multipel representatives, representing all the factions/clans/ect. from all the races, and I think that the representatives themselves would be pretty high up, which is why I think that (for the Cubi at least) ALL the clan leades would be preseant as their own representative.

Non-voting advisors, perhaps.  I seriously doubt that the rest of the council would allow a hundred clan members to each get a vote.  It might fly with some of the other races that have clans, but some races, like the undead, who (probably?) have only one seat would surely block any effort to do that.

Hmm, good point. Maybe only the most prominant and powerful clan leaders?

Two members is still going to give them twice the power of a race that doesn't have any clans.

Yeah it would have to be ones of very powerful clans, other smaller ones probably have their own council setup to send someone to speak for them as a whole. If Cyra's clan is really powerful they probably have(had?) their own representative. Abel though, since his clan barely exists has no representative.

Thats why I also said factions/ect. I'm sure EVERY race, EVEN the Undead, have different groups with differing agendas, hell most Undead are really the good people who sometimes even re-commit suicide cuz they don't want to eat someone else alive, but I'm sure there exist sickos that do. I think I could safely say that thos two groups would NOT want the same representative.

I was about to say Mab has some important relation to that guy, but 32984623859265932 people did before me. Oh well.

So the undead have two representatives?  One for 99.44% of the race, and one for the other 0.56%?  I don't think that that would go over too well.

I'm sticking to one voting seat per race, and perhaps that seat is divided up equally or proportionally between the different factions.

What the hell is Albanion doing there?

Lets see... fae that was playing a role, apparently helpful, nice, part and reason the creature-being council exists...

Erm... What. Is. He. Doing. There?

I'll just go recheck the info about faes in demo 101 again.
Yeah, what's Albanion doing there?  Fortunately, the "present" Albanion seems to have Beings' best interest in mind.  He doesn't seem quite as flighty as Mab, but a bit moreso than Azlan.

My best guess is that he wanted to talk to Mab about goings-on in the Fae kingdom, but stopped to watch the little being and the half-demon talk.

Also, Demo 101 says he's in the Being/Creature council, not the Creature Council, and whoever that is in 336 is most definitely not a horse.(Amber's drawing styles haven't changed THAT much.)

Then the problem becomes what makes a 'group'?  No two beings ever think exactly a like and are therefore going to be considered a "different group."  There is also the fact that the council exist specifically to repesent groups found in Furrae.  So the issue would go from seperating wigs to seperanting the hairs on said wigs, defeating the whole "cutting down" process that forces a council of some sort to exist in any democratic medium.
The fate of the world always rests in the hands of an idiot.  You should start treating me better.

Where has Mab dissapeared to? Oo

When last seen, she was on Jyrras' left. Albanion is on his right. I'd say that means the Fae are facing each other. And enjoying watching the drama unfold...

Forgetting about Albanion for a moment, my initial thought was that Mab had shapeshifted...

I'm wondering, actually... Is Mab now going to be Queen of the Fae? Or would that be far too obvious?


Nah. Too obvious.

Dancing Queen? Or perhaps just Queen of the Desert? Or, in Mabs' case, Dessert?

also the Fae in #366 has three fingers and a thumb whereas Albanion has hooves... therefore only finger-like things and a thumb

Ah, but aren't the gemstones on both the silhouette and Albanion's foreheads the same? The image in the Demonology 101 profile for the Fae is pretty similar to the Albanion we see in the comic, with a few minor discrepanices that is.

maybe, maybe... perhaps that is a clan///guild///family marking though... Mab has one too. As so little is known about Fae i guess i cant prove anything  :animesweat   

I don't know it could be Albanion the finger thing just really threw me.

I find it odd that the fae has one white hand and one black hand

Not really. It's quite common for horses and other hoofed animals to have hooves of different colors, usually based on the color of the leg above it. White marked legs have white or pink hooves, and dark legs black, grey or even reddish brown hooves. Sometimes you even have hooves that are more than one color at once; in fact, Appaloosas have striped hooves...

...but I won't bore you anymore. ^.^

Just on the whole fae thing, where on earth IS Azlan these days? I imagine being bullied into putting up shelves and getting the lawn mowed, but he's got to be appearing sometime soon with his happy-go-lucky tragic stylings.

Oh dear.

If you read the earlier posts, he's listed in the Fae entry on Demo 101. Albanion, I think it was...
