Now that the clan contest is over (and congratulations, Vashkoda!), I thought that I'd ask you about one of the particular clan-answers.

It seems clear now that you're placing New Camelot in Antarctica. What I'm curious about is: why there? While Antarctica does have some advantages for being the site of Arthur's new home (it's out of the way, and isn't part of any nation-state), it's also one of the most inhospitable places on the planet. Wouldn't the harsh cold be something of a problem for making it Arthur's permanent base of operations (well, the gargoyles there would be able to weather the cold, but it might not be so great for any human members of the court)?

Greg responds...

Keep in mind, the clan and the kingdom is founded in Antarctica sometime between 1996 and (the revised year that was) 2158. I'm not gonna get more specific than that right now, but I will say that a lot can happen in two hundred years. Also, the location is a direct result of various strange alliances in the Garg Universe that I'm also not prepared to discuss right now.

Let me just say that I'm not ignorant of the weather conditions. But I do have something in mind.

Ok.
I just want to know the manhatten clan gargoyles ages. Sorry if im rude, stupid or anything, i just wanna know their ages.

Greg responds...

I don't think you're being rude, stupid or "anything". What generated that?

Anyway, unfortuntately, I don't have that information with me right now. And I'm tired of trusting my memory and getting things wrong. So post the question again, and if I'm at my office, I promise I'll answer it.

Were the ancestors of the London clan the gargoyles whom Arthur was acquainted with during his reign? I assume that they were in Britain already at the time because of Griff's "hatchling riddle" about Excalibur in "Pendragon" (the episode) - not to mention the fact that their presence in Arthur's kingdom would explain those references in the legends to lions, unicorns, and griffons in Arthurian Britain - but I just wanted to make certain.

Greg responds...

Yep.

1. What were the names of the four members of the Guatamalan clan before they were given the pendants? (It's odd that I'd ask you a question that I don't really expect you to have an answer to. Consider it definitive prove that the universe is a silly place.)

2. Will they revert to their old names when they "retire"?
(2b. Am I correct in assuming that, unless they die, they'll eventually pass their pendants on to younger gargoyles?)

Greg responds...

1. They had no names. They're Gargoyles. ;)

2. See above.
