Information gathering!

Hey, gang! So, I floated the idea of a mythology comm a little while back, and a couple people pointed out that unless we're actually plotting together, that seems unnecessary. I'm still open to a comm at some point -- but until then, what I really want to do is get some Millicanon settled, and in one central place so that people can reference it easily.

Personally, what I'm interested in is stuff like what So-and-so has been up to for the last few millennia (settled down in Amsterdam? Roaming the world causing havoc? Hunting yaks in the Himalayas? Living in Milliways?) and where in time they are currently -- like, I know Medusa's primarily from the old days, and so is Cerberus, and Eirene's from the 1960s, whereas the Titanoi are from 2008.

Any other Millicanon information you think is important would be super-helpful, too. :)

And I'm more late than anyone else. I'd like to point out that Melpomene isn't really in on the whole sisterly lovin' thing. She doesn't like her sisters very much, particularly since the promiscuous one seduced her old lover, and hasn't talked to them outside of Milliways since maybe the 1800s. She's now in New York, 2008.

Melpomene likes traveling to where the big thoughts are. During the Golden Age, obviously, she was still in Greece. During the Renaissance, she was all over Europe. In the early 1900s, she was in Hollywood.

These days, she lurks in coffeehouses and bars and looks for the poets. The good poets. There aren't many with the passion and understanding, but where they are, Melpomene seizes and inspires.
