Do most people know of the Avalon clan in 2198? If so why don't they know of the Fay?
If not then how did people explain the appearance of an extra gargoyle leader at QFL?

Greg responds...

A select few humans know of the clan, without knowing much about Avalon itself.

1) There any reason why Nick Natsilane Maza is connected to all four of the tricksters? (His Maza family line is part of a tribe closely related to Coyote, Diane's family has roots with a tribe associated with Anansi, the Natsilane family is of course connected to Raven, and Nick has some relation with Owen/Puck)
2) If the answer to 1) is yes, what is that reason?

Greg responds...

I think you're stretching the point.

Diane's association with Anansi is limited to her having met him. And Nick's association with Puck is limited to him having met Owen.

Shortly after Ask Greg stopped allowing questions to be submitted in August 2001, someone brought this news article to the attention of the Station 8 CR:

"Italian professor Severino Antinori ...are set to unveil their plans" (to clone a human)

Full article at: http://www.cnn.com/2001/WORLD/europe/08/06/clone.doctor/index.html

Is it a coincidence... or a prophecy?

Greg responds...

I saw a report about that in the L.A. Times. Weirded me out, I'll tell you.

1) Did you ever have plans for the trickster Loki?
2) If so, what are they?

Greg responds...

As I've mentioned before, I'm on the fence about Loki, as he is a character who has been done to death elsewhere. Same with Thor. They may be dead. But I haven't decided. I haven't found a way into the characters that strikes me as unique enough to justify including them in anything but flashbacks.

Why didn't Odin call on his sons who had survived Ragnarok to help him retrieve his eye?

Greg responds...

Did he need help?

Why did Odin wish to retrieve his eye? Was it because of the frequent usage from the Archmage and Fox?

Greg responds...

It was his. The terms of its exchange had long expired. He wanted it back.

Why didn't Odin retrieve his eye earlier? Like when the eye was in Xanatos or some museum's hands?

Greg responds...

Why didn't he wait longer?

Are gargoyles part of the UN in 2198?

Greg responds...

Define "part".

Why did Earth surrender so easily to the Space-Spawn?
Do we haven any colonies in outer space in 2198? Did they also surrender?

Greg responds...

They were completely overmatched and in crisis. Short-term one could argue they had little choice, particularly since the penalty for merely saying no would have been the complete anhiliation of the planet.

Define "outer space". There were colonies within our solar system. None further out. And yes, they were forced to surrender too.

1.Did Jason, Jon and Robyn receive any training at hunting gargs? Who did they receive it from?
2.Do the Canmore siblings know of Fiona? What do they think of her?
3.Were the similarities between the Canmore siblings and the Phantom (kit walker) intentional? I mean both are from families who are obsessively hunting the Demon/fighting crime for hundreds of years and both have their parents killed when they were young?
4.Who was the Canmore siblings' mother? What happened to her? Is she still alive?

Greg responds...

1. Yes.

1a. The Canmore Clan.

2. Yes.

2a. When?

3. Not particularly.

3a. My familiarity with the Phantom is limited at best, I'm afraid.

4. Not saying at this time.

Why doesn't Anubis look like the Emir when he appeared in the Gathering? What happened?

Greg responds...

The Emir joined his son in death, releasing Anubis.

And by the way, I apologize for that goofy moment in "The Gathering" when it looks like Anubis is laughing.

Where did Banshee go after Cuchullain beat her?

Greg responds...

She stayed in Ireland, while she regrouped -- but keeping well out of Rory's way. Eventually she was dragged to Avalon.

I just noticed that Charles Canmore's Hunter costume was most similar to Jon Canmore's Hunter costume was this symbolic of both men unable to give up the tradition of the hunt while Robyn and Jason it seems were able to give up the hunt? If not why did the two costumes of Charles and Jon resemble each other?

Greg responds...

Each and every Hunter costume is a variation on the original's basic theme.

Some of what you've noticed may be due more to coincidence rather then intent. Otherwise you'd have to ask the costume's designers.

How did the Archmage get the grimorum?
How did he become Malcolm's advisor?
What did he do before becoming Malcolm's advisor?
Why wasn't the Archmage burnt for witchcraft?

Greg responds...

1-3. Not saying now. All part of the Dark Ages tapestry.

4. He was too useful for too long.
