''The Spectacular Gargoyles'' was a [[JournalRoleplay roleplaying community]] composed of anonymous fans of the shows of Creator/GregWeisman. Previously located on Website/{{Twitter}}, the [[UsefulNotes/{{Roleplaying}} Roleplay]] expanded rapidly after migrating to question-asking site Formspring/spring.me. Sadly, after OKCUPID purchased Spring.me, and turned it into a dating website, all of the pre-existing accounts were wiped, and so the RP was killed completely.

* PetTheDog: Anansi has a well-deserved reputation for making deals with mortals only to twist them for his own benefit. But when Peter Parker, deep in his grief over Gwen Stacy's death, tries to call in the favor Anansi had offered him with a very ill-advised wish, the trickster does his best to honor the spirit of the wish while also being honest with him about its low likelihood of success, because he genuinely ''likes'' Peter, seeing him as improving the reputation of spiders through his actions as Spider-Man.

Added DiffLines:

* HonorBeforeReason: When the Green Knight is informed of the loophole in Mab's power-stripping spell (see Loophole Abuse below), he refuses to take advantage of it, even though he acknowledges that it would be practical given the dire situation, because he believes very strongly in the inviolability of swearing an oath, and will not make one with the full intention of breaking it right after. Oberon, for his part, understands that this is part of the Knight's nature and sincerely thanks him for his loyalty after Mab is defeated, even if it meant he was unable to contribute his full strength to their cause. (The Lady of the Lake is similarly uncomfortable with the act, though she ultimately decides that the circumstances necessitate it.)


Added DiffLines:

* LoopholeAbuse: For most of the Mab arc, the Children of Oberon are hampered when she casts a spell stripping them of much of their power unless they swear fealty to her. Among a few others, Jareth decides to join her and regains his full powers... but when he later turns against her, he doesn't lose them, causing the heroes to realize that, in her arrogance, Mab made no provision for traitors in her spell. Merlin then magically contacts the scattered Children informing them of this, and most of them proceed to regain their powers simply by swearing their loyalty - as long as they ''mean'' it when they say the words, it doesn't matter if they fully intend to take it back immediately afterward.

It also had a spin-off group that explores a number of [[AlternateUniverse Alternate Universes]], as introduced through [[ComicBook/CaptainAtom Thomeheb's]] [[CoolGate Gateway]].

%%* DeadpanSnarker
%%* FairCop
%%* TheFettered
%%* InterspeciesRomance: With Goliath
%%* KindheartedCatLover
* SecondLove: To Goliath.

%%* SheCleansUpNicely

[[quoteright:145:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/BrooklynPostTimeDancer_1232.jpg]]
Goliath's second-in-command. While once impetuous and a thrill seeker, Brooklyn soon grows into his reluctant role as the secondary leader and [[CharacterDevelopment becomes]] more serious and a skilled tactician.

%%* TheChainsOfCommanding
%%* DeadpanSnarker
%%* NumberTwo
* SlapSlapKiss: His relationship with his mate, Katana.

%%* CuteMonsterGirl
* HappilyMarried: To Broadway; their first egg is in the Manhattan Rookery.

* IAmAMonster: Her fear after having all her darkest aspects and desires brought forth by Demona while she was wearing her HypnoTrinket.
* InTheBlood: After what happened with said HypnoTrinket, Angela doesn't know how much of that was the amulet and how much of that was her.
* MeaningfulName: Just happens to have a karmically opposite name to Demona...
%%* ShesGotLegs
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She and Broadway. Aaaaawwwww.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: To her mother Demona. Her hair and skin tones match daddy Goliath spot-on too.
* WideEyedIdealist: The exact opposite of her mother concerning views on humans.
--->'''Angela''': I was raised by humans. There's no reason we can't all live together in harmony.

!!!Lexington:
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Lexington_8113.JPG]]
A gargoyle with a gift for technology.

%%* BadassBookworm
* BerserkButton: The Pack, due to a huge BrokenPedestal moment.
%%* BewareTheNiceOnes
* BigBrotherInstinct: To Alex Xanatos
* GadgeteerGenius: This is a gargoyle who was born in the 10th century and yet learned how to re-assemble a motorcycle and use a computer (along with other gadgets) in the span of a few months.
%%* ShorterMeansSmarter

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130826002330/http://spring.me/BroadwayGarg Broadway]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Broadway_2453.JPG]]
A BigEater who develops a liking for detective movies and literature.

* DoesntLikeGuns: One of the [[BerserkButton few things]] that'll make him mad.
%%* GentleGiant
%%* GuileHero
* HappilyMarried: To Angela.
%%* StoutStrength
* UglyGuyHotWife: Broadway isn't exactly ugly, but Angela's hotness more than qualifies them for this trope.

!!! Katana

Brooklyn's mate from [[JidaiGeki Edo Period]] Ishimura.

%%* ActionMom
%%* BelligerentSexualTension
* HappilyMarried: To Brooklyn; their final egg is in the Manhattan Rookery.
* JidaiGeki: From the Edo period actually.

!!! Coldstone
[[quoteright:325:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Coldstone_6578.JPG]]
Goliath's rookery brother, created by a combination of science and sorcery when his shattered stone pieces were reanimated and combined with cybernetics.

%%* ArmCannon
%%* HollywoodCyborg
* LivingStatue: Played With. He's more stone-like than the other gargoyles as he's basically made from the dead stone of gargoyles killed in the Wyvern Massacre, given a soul and new body through both science and sorcery. He's thus more of an animated statue than the other members of the Clan, but also less "alive" by comparison (and depending on your point of view).
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: He's essentially an undead cybernetic gargoyle.
%%* SoulJar

!!! Coldfire:
Goliath's rookery sister and Coldstone's mate, a soul trapped within a robotic body.

* GhostInTheMachine: A soul that never properly passed on, given form through a robotic body.
* LoveTriangle: Based in Shakespeare, unsurprisingly.
%%* PhlebotinumRebel
%%* PlayingWithFire
%%* SoulJar

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130820023105/http://spring.me/YoCallmeGnash Nashville/Gnash]]
Brooklyn and Katana's biological son.

* BelligerentSexualTension: With Lunette, before they become mates.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He's probably one of the nicest people in this series, but he doesn't tolerate villains all that well.
%%* CoolBigBro: To Tachi.
%%* DeadpanSnarker
%%* EveryoneLovesBlondes: Lunette.
%%* KidSidekick: Sometimes.
%%* NiceGuy
* SecretKeeper: Knew Spider-Man's secret identity for a year before the rest of the clan and Elisa found out from him after Gwen Stacy died.

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130821100702/http://formspring.me/Egwardo Tachi]]
Brooklyn and Katana's biological daughter.

* SpinOffspring: Kind of. She's the only known Manhattan Clan member who's never been seen in the original show or comics (save as an egg in the last issue of the comic).
* ThemeNaming: After a Japanese blade, just like her mother.

!!! Staghart/Amp
Left with Griff to join the New Camelot Clan but couldn't really find a place there, so he joined up with the Manhattan Clan instead.

%%%* AmbiguouslyGay
* {{Fanboy}}: Of many things, being a self-admitted geek. Though Music/DavidBowie and Creator/JossWhedon are at the top of the list.
* TheMarvelousDeer: Bears resemblance to a white stag

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130825162420/http://spring.me/LittleLunette Lunette]]
A female gargoyle from London, she moved to Manhattan to be with Gnash and pursue acting.

!!! Bronx:
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Bronx_3837.JPG]]
The first gargoyle beast of the Manhattan Clan.

%%* AllAnimalsAreDogs
* BigFriendlyDog: To friends.
** AngryGuardDog: To enemies.
* HappilyMarried: To Boudicca.
* HeroicDog: At least, if we're prepared to relax the definition of 'dog.'
%%* TeamPet

!!! Fu-Dog:
Brooklyn's gargoyle beast originally from the Xanadu Clan.

%%* AllAnimalsAreDogs
* TeamPet: for the Timedancing Family

!!! Boudicca
A gargoyle beast originally from Avalon.

%%* AllAnimalsAreDogs
* HappilyMarried: To Bronx - their first egg is in the Manhattan Rookery.
* TeamPet: formerly for the Avalon Clan.

!! Nightstone Unlimited

[[quoteright:325:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Demona_5641.png]]
!!! Demona/Dominique Destine
Once she was Goliath's great love, now she is his greatest enemy. She will stop at nothing to destroy the human race leaving gargoyles the rulers of the Earth with her ruling the gargoyles. This pretty much makes her almost everyone on this character sheet's enemy... but she is always her own worst enemy.

* TheAloner: Seeing nearly all of the Wyvern Clan slaughtered by the vikings, followed by decades of watching the remnants of her species being slaughtered by the Hunter and his human allies (often through her own fault, though she remains in denial about that), have left her completely, helplessly, maddeningly alone. Centuries of endless pursuit by the Canmore dynasty have made her even more bitter.
* AntiVillain: Demona is actually '''not''' an example of this trope, but a big point is made about how she ''thinks'' she's a clear-cut [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Type III]], when she isn't. If anything, she's a deconstructed type II (this tragic villain is tragic because of her own self-destructive tendencies more than anything, and being sympathetic does ''not'' excuse her crimes).
* TheApprentice: In her youth, to the Archmage.
* ArchEnemy: Goliath, Brooklyn, Elisa, Broadway, Macbeth, Hunter... she practically collects them.
%%* TheAtoner: What Brooklyn has strongly hinted she will be in the far future.
%%* AxCrazy: On occasion.
* BareYourMidriff: In her default outfit.
%%* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Happens to her a lot.
* BeautyIsBad: Very attractive, as well as untrustworthy, vicious, and quite possibly insane.
* BerserkButton: She's got an entire console of berserk buttons, although her hatred of Elisa is probably the newest and most reliable.
* BigBad: She's the most recurring villain of the role play. Although she has shared the title with Mab, the Green Goblin, and Morgana le Fay.
* BoomerangBigot: Played with a twist. She wants to Kill All Humans for nearly wiping out her species, but when she asks Puck to make her not turn to stone during the day (as gargoyles do), he grants her request by making her turn into a human from dawn to dusk every day. Notably, this doesn't stop her — instead, it just lets her find more ways of reaching her goals, since she can now blend in with her "enemies" undetected. She easily takes to human society and tools, such as human sorcery and technology, even before she gained her human transformation curse. She even owns her own freaking company (named Nightstone)! For all of her hatred towards humans, Demona fits in far more with human civilization than she does with her fellow gargoyles.
* CarryABigStick: Her up-close WeaponOfChoice is a mace (though she also wields various laser rifles at range).
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: She has ultimately betrayed just about every group she has ever worked with.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: As Dominique Destine.
* CursedWithAwesome: ''Twice''. First when she's linked to Macbeth so neither can die except at the hand of the other. There is a fairly hefty downside, but still. Then, Puck gives her a parting "gift" of human form during the day. She's angry at first, but it's a big help for her nefarious plans.
%%* CuteLittleFangs
* TheCynic: Demona believes the worst in ''everyone''.
* DarkActionGirl: Evil, seductive, and a very skilled warrior.
%%* DebtDetester
* EmbarrassingNickname: Spider-Man has nicknamed her "Moany."
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She clearly loves her (heroic) daughter Angela — but unfortunately, this just gives her more rationalization for [[KillAllHumans Killing All Humans]].
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Despite having been allies with Macbeth for nearly forty years, she had no trouble whatsoever believing that he would readily betray her and her clan for his own gain. The consequences of her reaction to this were, to say the least, devastating for all involved.
* EvilCounterpart: A pretty extreme example as she's one to [[UpToEleven Goliath, Elisa, and Angela.]]
* EvilMatriarch: She loves Angela so much, she's willing to kill humanity to protect her. Well, she was going to kill humanity ''anyway,'' but she really loves Angela.
* EvilPlan: The total and complete extinction of the human race.
* EvilRedhead: She's evil, and she's a redhead.
* EvilSorceress: Another given; she's evil, and she's a sorceress.
* FaceHeelTurn: In her BackStory.
* FallenHeroine
* FauxAffablyEvil: On the rare occasion that she isn't a walking pile of seething, omnicidal rage.
* FantasticRacism: She utterly despises humanity.
* FauxAffablyEvil: On the rare occasion that she isn't a walking pile of seething, omnicidal rage.
* FemmeFatalons: Not just her gargoyle talons, but even as ''Dominique Destine'', she files her fingernails into sharp points.
* FieryRedhead: As hot-tempered as her hair color implies.
* ForWantOfANail: Most of the main events of the story started because of her including the destruction of the clan at Castle Wyvern, the creation of The Hunter, and of course her own paranoia about humanity itself.
* GreenEyedMonster: She still grudgingly carries feelings for Goliath, but characteristically this just means she tries to [[MurderTheHypotenuse murder any hypotenuses that look Goliath's way]], particularly Elisa Maza.
* HeelFaceTurn: According to Brooklyn, Demona is destined to have one and help save the world for humans and gargoyles alike. But it won't be for another two hundred years.
* HeelRealization: Has these several times, for a BigBad. Unfortunately, she proves herself a grand champion at [[IgnoredEpiphany ignoring them]].
* HeroesWantRedheads: She was Goliath's mate, after all. Averted when her true personality showed.
* HotWitch: She does have magical abilities after all.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: Her strongest belief.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Demona sees herself as the self-proclaimed savior of her race, and that Goliath and those who stand with him will be the death of the race. Never mind the fact that she herself caused the birth of the Hunter, their generations, and indirectly the Quarrymen, whose sole purpose is to destroy they Gargoyles with extreme prejudice. And she had the gall to say Goliath with be the death of all of them? If anything, SHE was the one who nearly caused Gargoyle extinction.
** She claims that Goliath had been corrupted by humanity, yet Demona has, over the years, become more "human" than Goliath ever has.
** In ''Sanctuary'', Demona and Thailog are lovers. Demona accuses Goliath of being jealous and paranoid of their love. In reality, Demona is jealous of Goliath's love with Elisa and is truly paranoiac herself.
* IgnoredEpiphany: Demona lives and breathes this trope. Ignoring the truth behind all the death and destruction she has caused is probably the only way she can continue to function.
%%* ImmortalImmaturity
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Whether the Hunters do it, or the Green Goblin... she always got better.
* {{Jossed}}: Used to often sip wine in her down time. After Creator/GregWeisman revealed that her drink of choice is likely water, she hasn't been seen with a drink since.
* KillAllHumans: Her primary goal in life.
* KnightTemplar: Subverted; she's ''convinced'' herself her cause is noble, but it's really just her lashing out at the world due to all the pain she's brought upon herself.
* LadyMacbeth: She subtly encouraged Erichthonius to attempt to seize the leadership of the New Olympian Clan, and she is also playing Jove and Baron Strucker. Taken to the nadir when the Weird Sisters trapped her and others inside their own magical production of Shakespeare's Macbeth where Demona was cast as Lady Macbeth.
* LivingForeverIsAwesome: There is no deadline for her to exterminate humans. She can keep trying until Doom's Day.
* MagicKnight: She uses her powerful magic and formidable combat skills about evenly.
%%* MamaBear
* ManipulativeBitch: Just ask Angela. Or ask Coco of the London Clan. Or ask Victoria Hand. Or ask Cordelia.
** She pulled this on Angela again, in a very serious fashion. She did regret it afterward, but the beating she took was well deserved.
* MeaningfulName: Her alias "Dominique Destine" literally means "Divine Destiny."
** Also Macbeth gave her the name "Demona" because he said she fought like a demon.
* ModestyBedsheet: Used one in a London hotel suite when she was suddenly woken up naked in bed and ran out on to the balcony, sensing great magic before quickly jetting off to Paris.
* MsFanService: One of the most attractive females in the cast, and not especially shy about it.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: SubvertedTrope. She came close to this but then dismissed it.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Demona the demon.
* NeverLiveItDown: In-Universe. As Dominique Destine, she slept with Tony Stark. Yes, it was to steal his armory, but no one is letting her forget it and Stark wears it as a badge of honor.
* NeverMyFault: Employed in a ''very'' serious fashion. If there is one defining character flaw for Demona, this is it. Most of her troubles and emotional agonies are entirely her fault, and her refusal to admit any responsibility on her part is the basis for her bitterness AND her racism, all of which she formed mostly to avoid the overwhelming guilt she would feel.
* NotSoDifferent: Demona and John Castaway.
* PainfulTransformation: Her shift to human during the day and back again.
* PsychoExGirlfriend: Psycho ex-mate to Goliath, although it's more justified with Thailog.
* RemovedAchillesHeel: Demona doesn't turn into stone during the day, unlike the other gargoyles. During the day she's human.
* RevengeByProxy: "Their descendants shall pay. I will have blood for blood!"
* SecretIdentity: As Dominique Destine, she conceals her true self.
* SexGoddess: She made Erichthonius believe in "happy endings."
%%* SheCleansUpNicely
* ShesGotLegs: Long and uncovered.
%%* HeWhoFightsMonsters
* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: In her human form.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: To Angela.
* TheUnfettered: ''Nothing'' is sacred for Demona, and no-one, with the possible exception of Angela, is not expendable in her quest to eradicate humanity.
* UnholyMatrimony: With Thailog, once upon a time. She had taken Ericthonius as her third mate, and all it took for her to accept his love and loyalty was for him to allow her to commit an atrocity... she has barely given him any thought since his death.
* UsedToBeASweetKid: She ''was'' a NiceGirl, who was constantly mistreated by humanity which resulted in her present state.
%%* TheVamp
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Demona started out this way, before descending to KnightTemplar and finally to revenge-obsessed whacko who only thinks she is in the right because it is what she has been telling herself every night for the last millennium.
* WhenSheSmiles: She actually has a really beautiful genuine smile, which is rarely ever seen because of her [[SlasherSmile malicious nature.]]
* WithUsOrAgainstUs: "If you are not my ally, then you are my enemy."
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Sometimes it's hard not to feel sorry for her.
* WomanScorned: At least from her point of view...
%%* WouldHurtAChild
* YouAreWhatYouHate: Whenever the sun is up, at least.
* YouNeedToGetLaid: According to WordOfGod, it's one of the reasons (in a very long list) why Demona is very bitter.

%%* TheIlluminati: A Thirty-Five.
%%* KarmaHoudini
* LargeHam: He probably gets it from Sevarius, and similarly plays up his performances when he deems the scene appropriate for it. Described by Weisman as "a bit of a performer," the things he says can't necessarily be taken at face value. On the other hand, like Demona, he can be chillingly cold when he wants to be.

* UnholyMatrimony: With Demona until he betrayed her. They're still in a custody battle for Nightstone Unlimited.
* WickedCultured: Took the first name "Alexander" when indirectly posing as a reclusive financial wizard after Alexander the Great, for whom he harbors admiration. He takes this a step further by lounging in a toga.

!!! Montparnasse
An AlternateUniverse counterpart to Broadway.

* KilledOffForReal: By the hammer of John Castaway.

!!! Angelique
An AlternateUniverse counterpart to Angela.

* TheMourningAfter: Was initially mated with Montparnasse, until the Quarrymen brutally murdered him. While she does share Griff's attraction to her, it took a very long time for her to get past the resultant grief (and arguably, she still hasn't completely done so).
** Complicating this is that gargoyles normally mate for life. While it is not unheard of to have a SecondLove, it is certainly frowned upon in most gargoyle cultures.

\n[[folder: Recap]]
''The Spectacular Gargoyles, with its LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters interacting in various permutations, can get a bit confusing for newcomers to follow. Here's a rough list of the [[StoryArc major Story Arcs]] that the [[UsefulNotes/{{Roleplaying}} Roleplay]] has engaged in so far.''

!!The Gang War
Demona and Dr. Octopus engage in a Gang War with New York caught in the middle. The gargoyles and Spidey attempt to restore order. This arc ended with Demona escaping to Paris, and Doc Ock getting arrested and sent to Ravencroft.

!!The Search for Merlin
Actually occurred before the Gang War, but it was the Gang War that activated and cemented the Roleplay. Griff, Myth/KingArthur, and Fleur seek out the Crystal Cave, and successfully revive Myth/{{Merlin}}.

!!The Search for the Holy Grail
Nimue leaves Avalon against Oberon's wishes, to explain her motives to Merlin for locking him up in the Crystal Cave. She is then poisoned by an unknown assailant. In order to save her life, King Arthur, Griff, and Fleur begin questing for the Holy Grail, eventually competing against Xanatos and Macbeth for the right to claim the cup.

!!London Clan Exposed
During the Grail arc, the Quarrymen expose the existence of the London Clan, and Demona attempts to wrest power from Una. At around this time the first of the {{Crossover}} characters begin to appear with Loki; a Multiversal traveler who accidentally creates a path that some of the [[ComicBook/CaptainAtom Flashback Clan]] use to cross over. Introduces [[DarthWiki/TheSpectacularOmniverse the Omniverse]] for the first time.

!!The Return of the Green Goblin
Norman Osborn returns, hires the best lawyers he can, and manages to clear himself of all charges of being the Green Goblin, although anyone with a brain can see through him. He quickly schemes to unmask Spidey and discovers he is actually Peter Parker. The two have been playing an unending metaphorical chess game ever since. Goblin also acquires a sample of Peter's DNA and used it to turn an ex-HYDRA agent named Jessica Drew into his own Spider-Woman.

!!PIT
A radical AnimalWrongsGroup called "The People for Interspecies Triumph," led by a zealous gargoyle-worshipping leader appears in Manhattan and performs terrorist attacks on the Quarrymen. The leader, Lacunae Rahdan, becomes mutated with gargoyle DNA by Sevarius and changes her name to Raksha. She then attempts to do the same thing to a large crowd, only for PIT to be defeated and for Raksha to be killed by Demona.

!!The Interview
A minor mini-arc around the beginning of the Mab arc. Travis Marshall interviews Goliath, Zafiro, Una, and Kai.

!!The Rising
Was being built towards even as far back the Grail and Gang War arcs. Morgana le Fey, seeking revenge upon Merlin, teams up with Demona to unleash Queen Mab — the most powerful and dangerous entity that ever existed. Back, before King Arthur was born, Oberon rebelled against his mother, Queen Mab. Joining forces with his bastard son, Merlin and a Time Dancing Brooklyn, Mab was defeated and thanks to blood from all Three Races, Mab was imprisoned and sealed within the Earth's iron core. Demona journeyed to Antarctica, bringing a jar of "Dominique Destine's" blood and she and Morgana spilled their blood within an ancient structure called the Antarctic Dance, and chanted the spell (the Mab poem from Romeo and Juliet), and unleashed Mab. Planning treachery, Demona attempted to imprison Mab within iron chains to enslave her, but failed. Mab seemingly killed Morgana and spared Demona to spread word of her rising. Mab then unleashed her Unseelie Court, composed of some of the most dangerous Eldritch Abominations from mythology: Apophis, Typhon, Balor, Surt, Tiamat, etc... she easily reconquered Avalon and imprisoned Oberon within the Earth's iron core.

The Rising lasted the longest (over several months) with a number of major events occurring. A number of characters died or almost bit the bucket. A large number of main characters went to Avalon, and more characters were introduced in this arc than any other.

The arc came to a climax when Mab came to Manhattan, planning to use the Empire State Building's antenna to create her eternal winter across the face of the Earth, potentially wiping out all life in the process. Merlin and Brooklyn freed Oberon and the Children of Oberon, along with the Manhattan Clan, the Avalon Clan, the London Clan, King Arthur's Knights, and Spider-Man battled her at the Empire State Building. Seeing another opportunity to destroy humanity and Mab, Demona made a failed attempt to take advantage of this by releasing an iron carrier virus and using Prospero's staff to take control of Mab's winter. Finally, Mab was slain when Goliath ran her through with TheSpearOfDestiny... she blew up, seemingly taking the Spear of Destiny with her. As a reward, Oberon declared that gargoyles the world over were immune to the arts of him and his people.

A number of minor things occurred around the end of the arc, including Thomeheb revealing that he had Tinkerer build a gate capable of reaching other universes in order to steal from them.

Three arcs began shortly after the Mab arc ended, at around the same time.

!!The Hobgoblin
The Hobgoblin, a new super-villian has arisen in New York, and had begun stealing from the Green Goblin and threatening the wealthiest—and some of the most corrupt—"People" in the Big Apple. The Hobgoblin also allied himself with Silver Sable in an attempt to rule the underworld, and after many twists, turns, red-herrings and murders, he was finally unmasked as Roderick Kingsley and brought to justice by Spider-Man.

!!Matrix/New Camelot Arc
After Matrix does some amazing things on Avalon while fighting Mab's forces, he's deemed to dangerous to live, so the Redemption Squad is ordered to take him down and destroy him. Dingo and Matrix run away before this can happen, and fall in with Falstaff's gang. This arc is was finished with the HYDRA attack on Paris.

!!The New Olympian Arrive
Terry Chung winds up on New Olympus, and the inhabitants decide that it is time for the world to learn of their existence. This arc is also current.

!!Natsilane's Quest
Raven informs Natsilane that Coyote and Grandmother have gone missing. He and Rory head out on a Quest to find them and find out who's responsible. Ended when Nick, Rory, and Beth Maza confronted Prospero.

!!The Quest of the Magi
King Arthur, Macbeth, and Peredur seek out the Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh of the Magi. This arc ended with Falstaff invading and temporarily taking over New Camelot.

!!The Mystery of Morgana le Fay
On the Winter Solstice, Morgana le Fay, who Mab supposedly killed in front of Oberon and Titania returned mysteriously. This arc ended when Morgana discovered a message left to her by Mab, claiming her as her heir.

!!The Attrition of the New Olympian Clan
Began when Demona arrived on New Olympus, and began sowing seeds of dissent within the ranks of the New Olympian Clan. This arc is not yet finished, but appears to have peaked at the moment, with the New Olympian Second Turning on his leader, and getting banished from the clan for his troubles. The banished second joined up with Jove, who Christens him 'Erichthonius', and who had allied with Demona in a devil's agreement before making his way to Manhattan and formally joining her.

!!The Skull of Ah Pukuh
A unique find from Guatemala, was stolen from it's display at the museum by Black Cat, Nashville and Spider-Man attempted to stop her, but failed for reasons they didn't quite understand. Black Cat delivered it to Demona.

!!The Death of George Stacy
Dr. Octopus has escaped from Ravencroft and assembles the Sinister Six, this time including the New Olympian, Proteus. After several attempts to run Spidey through a gauntlet, they lure Spidey to Times Square, and in the battle between Ock and Spidey, Captain Stacy is killed by falling debris.

!!Wheels within Wheels
Reichsadler arranges for an attack on the 2012 London Olympics, but it's really a ploy to draw the Knights out so that they can be scanned with a stolen New Olympian device that scans each knight for a listing of his powers and weaknesses.

The Chameleon has infiltrated New Camelot.

!!The Weird Macbeth
The Weird Sisters begin meddling again as fate begins sowing its seeds for Erichthonius. Meanwhile, Shakespeare In the Park's production of As You Like It is about to come to a conclusion when Demona makes her way to the play in an attempt to kidnap Macbeth and is spotted and pursued by
the Manhattan Clan. As the play is about to begin, the Weird Sisters appear on stage and slowly entrap people one by one within the play as our heroes, and a couple of villains end up trapped within their own private production of William Shakespeare's Macbeth. Macbeth plays himself, Goliath was chosen and Elisa play Macduff and Lady Macduff, Peter Parker as Banquo, Mary Jane as Seyton, and of course Demona as Lady Macbeth among other characters.

As the play proceeds, Erichthonius and Cordelia attack a charity gala in Bryant Park being hosted by John Castaway where Erichthonius murders Mayor Waters. Once the play concludes, Demona makes a fast escape where it is clear that the incident had a profound affect on her. The next day, Macbeth and Mary Jane meet for coffee where he reveals to her who he really is and the two part as friends.

!!The Hunter's Quarry
At first, Demona is pleased by Erichthonius's actions because humans in every country where gargoyle clans dwell are rioting, and lashing out in fear. Even forcing the Mayan Clan into a deeper part of the Green, where humans cannot reach. Unaware, or willfully ignorant, Demona refuses to notice that backlashes are against /anything/ pro-gargoyle. Cyberbiotics, Xanatos Enterprises, and Gateway Dynamics are all targeted by vandals because of their habit of giving to pro-gargoyle charities. As well as Nightstone Unlimited (Under Thailog's tenure, Demona does not give to charity) After an attack on Demona's Gramercy Park Mansion
by the Redemption, Coldsteel finally convinces Demona that her boytoy has become a liability. Demona makes plans...While at the same time, in London, a group of skinheads sneak into Knight's Spur and get away with smashing Lunette's Ex-Boyfriend Falcor, before the RGDT manages to stop them.

!!Falcor's Wind Ceremony
Lunette, Amp, Gnash, and Lexington return to London for Falcor's wind ceremony...But the clan
leaders are all mysteriously missing all over the world.

!!The Trial of Erichthonius
The Redemption Squad captures Erichthonius and hands him over to Griff, who takes custody of him in the name
of the London, Mayan and Ishimura clans Gargoyle Nation. He then Zeta's to act as overall New Camelot, where the Clan Leaders of the World have secretly gathered. Erichthonius must face a tribunal of the GN's Clan Leaders: Goliath, Coco (Newly Installed Leader of the newly formed London Clan), Kai, The Praetor, Zafiro, Gabriel, Griff (leader of New Camelot's breakaway Clan) and the Xanadu Leader (who is still secretly allied to Demona). Unbeknownst to any of them, Demona secretly planted a tracking device under Ericthonius's skin, and is arranging to have HYDRA attack the trial and abscond with Erichthonius...Thinking that the world can chase HYDRA for a while, while they secretly return Erichthonius to her.

Meanwhile, Brooklyn arranges with Mary and Finella, the co-owners of WVRN News, to spirit away Travis Marshall to cover the events of the trial for the world. Erichthonius is tried before the Tribunal (and the world) and found not only guilty, but that his punishment must be death (to the sorrow of the clan leaders, as before now, Banishment was the highest form of gargoyle punishment, but no other option is viable). Erichthonius, for his last request, asks to speak to Demona one last time only for Demona to ignore him and threaten Goliath with death when the call is made. HYDRA attacks New Camelot, and Erichthonius is killed taking a shot meant for his former leader. His body is taken to New Olympus for the Wind Ceremony, and this act of poetic justice by the hands of Fate, draws the Korean Clan out of hiding, and they seek to join the
Gargoyle Nation.

After Spidey falls asleep, Black Cat collects a DNA sample from him and the jump drive and leaves, meeting up with Tombstone, Glasses and Anton Sevarius at Nightstone Unlimited's new labs where we learn that the entire evening was planned to allow Cat to get close to Spidey and bring the DNA sample. The jump drive contained passwords to bank accounts so she could collect her reasons payment, and then... once Demona stepped out of the shadows, Black Cat recognized her voice as the one she delivered the Skull of Ah Pukuh to back in January, and left before any of them could register the fear and especially the regret. The next day, as Felicia Hardy, she visited Peter Parker at Aunt May's house and the two them agreed to give a relationship a try.

!!Griff's Journey
After the assault on New Camelot, Griff feels that he must confront Reichsadler once and
for doing so were partly selfish, [[IJustWantToBeSpecial wanting all. But not knowing where the HYDRA clone is holed up, he chooses to feel special]] as let Avalon guide his journey.

Since "Back In Black," Peter has moved out of Aunt May's house and into an apartment he shares with Harry Osborn after having a fight with her over Felicia Hardy. After a fight in a department store with the Vulture, Mary Jane Watson confronted Peter over her knowledge that he is Spider-Man. After an uneasy discussion where the two of them revealed things about themselves the other never knew,
their friendship strengthened.

Meanwhile, the Big Man's newest Enforcer, Kaine, a deformed clone of Spider-Man attacked his "father" while on patrol with Black Cat. Afterwards, it was revealed that Kaine's awakening would not have been possible without Black Cat stealing a DNA sample from Peter after their first night together. Spider-Man ended the relationship with Black Cat right then and there. In an effort to make things right with him, Black Cat broke into the old Os Corp building (now owned by Nightstone Unlimited) to steal back any DNA samples they had left... after that, she broke into Nightstone's corporate headquarters and attempted to steal back the Skull of Ah Pukuh from Demona's vault when she was confronted by Demona herself. Black Cat managed to escape with a jump drive and make it back to her apartment, but as soon as she plugged it into her computer, Demona managed to track her down and attack Black Cat, brutally beating her into a coma... the jump drive itself falling into an air conditioning vent. Peter visited the comatose Felicia, sorry over what had happened and then, after a talk with Mary Jane about Felicia and Gwen's death, he re-donned his old red and blue costume.

!!Transitions
After more than a year of preparation, Demona's plans began to culminate when December 21st, 2012 arrived. As all of the pieces fell into place, Thailog emerged from hiding and got into a brief skirmish with Cordelia. Hoping to use Elisa Maza's blood to activate her doomsday spell on humanity, Demona sent Cordelia and Coldsteel to abduct her from her loft, and returned to Nightstone Unlimited with Beth Maza and Mary Jane Watson (who was there to meet up with Lunette to talk theater and acting). As this happened, Spider-Man found and brought the jump drive Black Cat stole from Demona to the Eyrie Building where they accessed New Camelot's Master Matrix and decrypted it, uncovering Demona's plans to amplify the powers of the Skull of Ah Pukuh with the final page from the Grimorum Arcanorum. When the sun finally set on the 21st, on Elisa's call, both the Gargoyles Taskforce and Supervillain Taskforce converged upon the Nightstone Unlimited skyscraper in time for Reichsadler and HYDRA to turn on Demona once they realized she had the means to destroy all of humanity, not just all the humans in the New York area. The Manhattan Clan, Sir Griff, King Arthur, Jade and Turquesa soon arrived, batting their way through hundreds of Thailog Shock Troops, Talon Commandos, and HYDRA soldiers. Brooklyn and Fu-Dog battled their way into the main chamber at the apex of the pyramid first where Brooklyn's Fu-Dog slayed Demona's before Goliath and Elisa finally fought their way in. Upon their arrival, Demona slammed Beth Maza down on to the altar and stabbed her with the ceremonial dagger, spilling her blood onto the skull... it's power pulsed and began to spread and many humans in Manhattan collapsed ill, some died. With victory in her hands, Cordelia went into a trance and destroyed the skull... causing the skull and pyramid's power to feedback in on itself. On her way out, Demona shot Cordelia square in the chest, calling her a disgrace (and finally ending what was Clan Nightstone) before grabbing Mary Jane as a hostage on her way out, and dropping down to the streets... where she was saved by Spider-Man and the two shared their first kiss. Angela also arrived in time to rescue the gravely wounded Cordelia. With the skull destroyed, the pyramid began tearing itself apart, and Coldsteel slammed Beth neck first into a wall, killing her. Staying with his wife as the pyramid collapsed, Natsilane asked Goliath to take care of their kids and Goliath and Elisa escaped the pyramid's collapse, and followed Demona several blocks south before taking her down and finally capturing her. With the power of the pyramid still pulsing, it threatened to destroy all of Manhattan once it exploded... but the day was saved with the timely arrival of Alexander Fox Xanatos, who used all of what Puck taught him to contain the magic of the pyramid, whereby

The helicarrier is evacuated by Maria Hill and some S.H.I.E.L.D. agents as Strucker and Fury do battle one last time. Griff sets off the bomb early causing every HYDRA agent on board including Strucker, Grim Reaper, and Reichsadler to petrify... only Black Widow and Bob Grigori manage to escape before the helicarrier crashes into the ocean. As this happens, Rory unmasks the Chameleon and rescues his real father from a HYDRA base. The next night, Reichsadler transforms back into flesh and blood and escapes from the wreckage of the helicarrier, while Maria Hill is promoted to director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and received a message left by Fury warning her of the Illuminati.

!!Bound By Blood
Cordelia and Kaine attack Hammerhead's chop shop only to be confronted by Demona as they attempt to escape. Demona knocks out Kaine and attempts to murder Cordelia as the clone begs for forgiveness. Angela intervenes, placing herself between Demona and Cordelia. Cordelia doesn't want Angela's help, Angela won't allow Demona to kill Cordelia, and Demona refuses to kill Angela to get to Cordelia. Demona is soon outnumbered when Reichsadler shows up to help his mate, and offers her a place at his side. But Cordelia chooses her own path and rejects Reichsadler, shuns Angela, and realizes that she'll never gain Demona's forgiveness... and leaves with Kaine to find her own path (which is what Reichsadler really wanted for her). Angela and Demona briefly converse, where Demona confesses that Cordelia was a mistake and that she wanted Angela at her side and still does. Angela declares that unless one of them changes for the better, they will never have a relationship. As Angela flies off, Demona ponders upon this.

!!Hail, HYDRA!
Reichsadler and Black Widow gather what remains of HYDRA and unleash the Erlking (and the Wild Hunt) on Washington DC as they break into Secretary of Defense, Dell Rusk's office at the Pentagon to steal his files. But while there, they discover that Dell Rusk is actually the Red Skull whom willingly gives them everything they could ever need to know about S.H.I.E.L.D.. Black Widow flees to New Camelot, where she is placed into a dungeon but reveals that she was on a mission to go deep undercover inside HYDRA. Reichsadler then breaks into the Raft and frees Viper, intending to rule HYDRA with her. But upon being released, she fulfills a promose to the agent assigned to guard her and murders his wife and child before killing him, all while announcing her return to the world, and calling herself: Madame Hydra. Reichsadler soon regrets freeing her, knowing she is a threat to all, including him. Black Widow is soon allowed to walk free inside the castle of New Camelot in exchange for information on Viper.

!!Scorpion
After spending several months living in the Labyrinth, Scorpion encounters the Sinister Six, who he allows to infiltrate the Labyrinth during the day, and take it over. The homeless denizens are forced to flee, save for Al and Shari who are taken hostage. Talon, who is barely conscious when they are brought before Dr. Octopus is unable to respond to the question "which one of you is Talon" to which Paw volunteers, and is killed for it. He then allows the rest to join him, all refuse except for Delilah. Ock gleefully declares themselves the Sinister Seven.

Meanwhile Goliath, Angela, and
Broadway ''is'' are attending a Friends of Humanity event which is then attacked by John Castaway and several Quarrymen. Angela saves Khulan's life, and Castaway is gravely wounded by Goliath before the Quarrymen flee. In thanks, Khulan gives Angela a present, a ruby attached to a choker with Angela then wears. On their way home, Angela lies to Broadway saying she needs to check in on the twins. Instead Angela heads to the Statue of Liberty where she meets, and embraces Demona.

!!Intermission
In the real world, formspring announced they were shutting down and the previous arc was set to be a cliffhanger while they prepared to move to a new home. When the shut down never happened, the players proceeded with small stories such as Peter and Mary Jane seeing Creator/AlanCumming's Macbeth on Broadway; Demona having a secret meeting with Angela in Elisa's loft, not to mention Angela becoming more aggressive and violent when dealing with the street thugs.

Goliath's
Sinister Seven completed the upgrades on the Labyrinth's security, at the same time a Cyberbiotics database was discovered containing a means to mass produce experimental super soldiers. Once Ock decided to kidnap some homeless people to experiment on, Malibu, Burbank, Hollywood, Talon, Claw, Maggie, Shari, Al, Erin, and Benny were mysteriously released from their cells and one by one, took down Ock's henchmen before Malibu confronted Ock himself and lured him into a trap, where he was defeated, and Delilah turned their new security system against the Sinister Six. The Six were then banished, and leadership of the Labyrinth returned to Talon, afterward, Delilah privately thanked Brentwood over the phone for his help, since he hacked into the Labyrinth and opened the cells.

Meanwhile, Thailog Shock Troops captured Dr. Octopus and brought him and his henchmen to Thailog, where he and Ock made a deal to work on Thailog's latest project. After Ock left for his new/old laboratory, Thailog was visited by a gargoyle named Tamora, an Illuminatus of the fourth rank.

!!The Goblin Prince
While on patrol with Goliath, Angela suggests that maybe it would be best for Brooklyn to step down as second-in-command in favor of a younger gargoyle, a thought which Goliath ponders. Around this time, Harry Osborn finds out that Peter Parker is actually Spider-Man and dons his stashed Green Goblin gear and then breaks into Nightstone Unlimited to steal some left over caches of Globulin Green, becoming the new Green Goblin. He finds Mark Allan and ropes him back into supervillainy with a promise to find a cure for his condition, and then wires the apartment that shares with Peter to blow up, hospitalizing Mary Jane. Recognizing the Goblin's explosives, Peter visits Felicia Hardy at Riker's Island (who is doing well in physical therapy) and discovers that Roderick Kingsley is still in custody (or so the world thinks), and tracks down the new Goblin at the refinery where Norman Osborn died, and quickly deduces that it is Harry. Harry vows vengeance and when he has the upper-hand, Harry reveals that he had abducted Aunt May and Mary Jane and locked them in separate rooms across the city, both wired to explode and Spider-Man can only save one of them. But Spidey calls in backup from New Camelot, and Hawkeye rescues Mary Jane while Spidey saves Aunt May. Inspired by Spidey's use of backup, Harry and Molten Man decide to get their own team (allying himself with the Big Man and gaining Cordelia and Kaine as allies). Later that evening, Goliath, Hudson, and Brooklyn meet to discuss the issue of
second-in-command. While once impetuous and a thrill seeker, Brooklyn soon grows into his Although reluctant role as to step down, all agree it might be for the secondary leader best, and [[CharacterDevelopment becomes]] more serious and a skilled tactician.

!!Viper's Venom
In eastern Europe, Viper acquires a nuclear bomb as well as an attempt on her life by S.H.I.E.L.D.. In order to keep both S.H.I.E.L.D. and Reichsadler on a leash, she kidnaps a school bus full of Austrian school children, strapping explosive vests onto them before sending the nuke and all of HYDRA's remaining forces to destroy New York City. On the way there, Reichsadler contacts Griff at New Camelot offering to turn himself over to the Gargoyle Nation for trial if New Camelot and their allies defeat Viper. HYDRA's man in Manhattan, Hammerhead leaks word to his former boss, now enemy, Tombstone about the bomb and Tombstone contacts the Illuminati, who arrange to have it dealt with. The Manhattan Clan again allies with the Knights of Camelot to remain vigilant and watch the waters for HYDRA's arrival, while the US navy and War Machine attempt to defeat HYDRA at sea. Viper arrives in Manhattan ahead of her forces to make final preparations, and that night the HYDRA armada lands, when Reichsadler betrays Viper and orders his vessel to fire on Viper's and those that don't stand with her to stand down. Black Widow abandons the Knights in the battle to be pursued by Clint to Viper's nest where he loses sight of Widow but is captured.

As Viper attempts to arm the bomb at Federal Hall, Reichsadler attacks her, and nearly defeats her before she resorts to trickery, but the intervention of Black Widow,
Goliath and Griff defeat Viper, and stop the bomb. Reichsadler turns himself over to Griff while Widow frees Hawkeye before fleeing; King Arthur and Hawkeye release Viper's hostages and the police capture Viper, and imprison her in the Vault (at Secretary of Defense, Dell Rusk's insistence).

Meanwhile, Bob - Ex-Agent of HYDRA knocks on his cousin, Vinnie's door asking for a place to hide out only to be punched out by Vinnie and handed over to the police... the last remnants of HYDRA as Baron Strucker knew it, finally destroyed.

!!Return to Atlantis
Namor and Dr. Sweet are approached by Champs about acquiring an Orichalcum crystal to power his experimental zeta beam platform. The homesick Namor leaps at the chance to return to the lost city. Accompanied by the New Olympian ambassadors Periclymenus and Arethusa, they arrive in Atlantis only to find the city overrun by the Knight of Vengeance Tiger Shark and his clone troops. Tiger Shark is supported in his coup by General Attuma, a rogue Atlantean warlord and Lady Dorma, an Atlantean noblewoman and old flame of Namor's. After many trials and tribulations, including a stay in the palace dungeons, our heroes eventually succeed in driving out the invaders. Tiger-Shark and Attuma make their escape while Dorma feigns innocence in the conspiracy.

!!Hunt's End
John Castaway's son by Margot Yale is born, named Jackson. After learning of her husband's true identity, Margot demands John promise their son will grow up with a normal childhood, not in the Canmore legacy. John agrees and initiates a plan to destroy the Manhattan Clan once and for all. Upon learning of the birth of their nephew, Jason and Robyn Canmore confront John asking he stop this madness, only to be taken captive. The Quarrymen abduct Tachi and lure the gargoyles into a trap at a hanger owned by Bushido Concepts. Broadway is seriously injured, and Angela (under
Demona's biological daughter. Born magical influence) kills John Castaway. The Quarrymen and raised on Avalon, she joins Goliath in order to see what the world outside is like and to better know her father, Goliath.

!!The Lost Children
Peter Parker returns home to discover Gwen Stacy sitting on his couch. Knowing that this cannot be the real Gwen Stacy, he throws her out of his home, and "Gwen" gives Jill Stacy a scare later when she attempts to return home. "Gwen" turns out to be a clone created by Harry Osborn in an attempt to be reunited with his "one true love." He then releases a clone of Norman Osborn from a pod before suiting up as the Green Goblin and, alongside Cordelia and Molten Man, capturing Spider-Man while Kaine captures Mary Jane and the Gwen clone. Kaine explains to "Norman" that he is not the original and to choose his own identity, not what others would have him be, advice that Cordelia also listens to and heeds. As Harry tortures Peter and prepares to kill him, "Norman" attacks and helps save Peter's life only to be killed by a broken Harry who then breaks down. Kaine releases "Gwen" and Mary Jane as Spidey takes Harry to Ravencroft for help. Molten Man returns home only to be checked into Ravencroft as well by Liz who transfers there to work as a nurse. The "Gwen" clone takes the name of Sarah after realizing she has six months to live and wants to make the most of the time she has.

!!New Scars
At Angela's suggestion, half of the eggs in the rookery are sent with Broadway via skiff to Avalon. Upon arriving on the island, he and Gabriel meet and due to the differences in time, the island still has not recovered from Mab's reign... something
Angela spent months wearing one that brought forth all her darkest aspects, and should have known. As Broadway visits Avalon, Demona uses the Lemurian Arcana to forge a talisman that, once placed her in into body of water, will lure any skiff leaving Avalon to it. Once Broadway leaves, he finds himself at Demona's service. She lied to dockside warehouse where he is captured by her and manipulated her clan; killed John Castaway; the Demon's Talon (unmasking Khulan as their leader). Once visited by Angela in his cell, he realizes what's been going on and even conspired with blames himself.

Demona to steal quickly moves the eggs to her townhouse, and into a rookery she's prepared there. After this, Elisa's worrying about Angela's recent behavior leads her to wonder about the influence her friendship with Khulan may have had, and remembering her early suspicions, she begins investigating the woman and her background, and uncovers nothing but rumors and a closed file on her father (who is rumored to be a terrorist). When she investigates "Lacunae Rahdon's" past, she discovers via a photograph evidence that Khulan is dangerous. She warns Goliath, who tells Angela (who reacts with faux shock) and as they patrol, she leads Goliath into an ambush where he is captured by operatives of the Demon's Talon... who, at Angela's insistence, wound her with a Quarryman hammer so she may easily blame them for Goliath's abduction. She calls for help, and Khulan forgotten, Elisa with the clan focuses on rescuing Goliath from the rookery and take control Quarrymen.

As Goliath comes to, Demona begins torturing him with hi-tech devices provided by Khulan. Angela assumes leadership
of the clan from Goliath.

Angela attacks Demona with all her anger and guilt before throwing her into the East River.

The gargoyles and Cordelia immediately head for Demona's townhouse to recover the eggs, but arrive only after Demona and her Talon have already come and gone, removing all of Demona's weapons, magical tomes and talismans and ONE egg. Broadway and Angela have an awkward and painful reunion as the gargoyles relocate back to the castle and return the eggs to the rookery. A guilt-stricken Angela retreats to the library where she confesses to Brooklyn that she wasn't being controlled, but that she had all of Demona's memories and her own darkest instincts had been brought to the forefront... Brooklyn then tells her that in the future, Demona will help save the world and find true redemption. A struck Angela asks why he's telling her this, and he says it's so she can learn to forgive herself. In uptown Manhattan, Demona moves into Khulan's mansion, and although she has an egg and enough servants to satisfy her every need, she thinks about Angela and what she's done and cries.

As this happens, Thailog plots his master plan to sell immortality to the world, and Hacker and Tamora recruit Sarah Browne into the Illuminati to keep the Quarrymen on the course they've set for them. Cordelia is welcomed by Delilah and Talon into the Labyrinth.

!!Old Wounds

We learn that, since Natsilane and Beth Maza died on December 21st in the Temple of Ah Pukuh, the God of Unnatural Death took their souls captive in the realm of Xibalba rather than allowed them to pass on. As an hour on Earth is 24 in Xibalba, the two Knights were tormented there, not realizing they were dead, for centuries. They unconsciously called out to the other Knights through their dreams, so they headed to Guatemala to investigate, meeting up with the Mayan Clan. Obsidiana turned out to be familiar with Xibalba, having ventured there as a child, and guided Arthur and the Knights to find Nick/Beth. Ah Pukuh and his Lords of Death minions waylaid them, forcing them all to relive their personal regrets and sins.

But Griff, having made personal peace with his own past and - as a
gargoyle - immune to Brooklyn's red, white-haired coloration.

Goliath's rookery brother, created
Third Race magic by Oberon's post-Mab War decrees, managed to break free and broke out the other Knights as well, eventually finding Nick/Beth and freeing them too. But Ah Pukuh revealed his secret weapon - the spirit of the Child of Mab Huitzilopochtli, who was killed by Nick on Avalon and granted a chance at revival if he destroyed the Knights. As a Spirit he was immune to their attacks, but Nick/Beth could fight him off, and were soon joined by the surprise cavalry of ALL the deceased Knights of the Round Table, who had been summoned to aid Arthur by Merlin.

They fought off the Hummingbird, took Nick/Beth's Spirits to join them in the afterlife, and allowed the living Knights to escape... but not before giving Beth's Spirit a brief, last chance to see her children, and thank her sister for taking care of them.

!!Intermission II

Angela starts seeking therapy with Dr. Kafka while Broadway spends his night guarding the eggs in penance until Brooklyn forces him out on patrol. As they glide near the newly rebuilt Nightstone Unlimited skyscraper, they have an encounter with Tamora, who turns out to have had a romantic history with Brooklyn during his time dancing before she joined the Illuminati. After Brooklyn does not hesitate to talk to Katana about this, Broadway and Angela have a heart-to-heart conversation and agree to work through this. Later, Xanatos arranges a vacation for them both up at Xanadu.

Xanatos also arranges Felicia Hardy's freedom and brings her back into his service to serve as a thief for him against his competitors. Meanwhile, Peter Parker and Mary Jane try to find a way for Sarah Stacy to live, and determined that she won't die in six months, Peter calls Dr. Curt Connors.

!!The Moon Knight Rises
Prospero was approached by Isis at Cleopatra's needle, who offered him the Scroll of Thoth in exchange for aiding in resurrecting her husband, Osiris. Isis had spent over a year gathering the various talismans containing Osiris' essence, including the Left Hand of Osiris formerly worn by Baron Strucker, all she required was a mortal sorcerer to invoke Osiris' power. While Prospero intended to halt his daughter's continuing deterioration by using the scroll to create an Avatar of Khonshu... the Egyptian God of Time and the Moon.

Meanwhile, Marc Spector, S.H.I.E.L.D's newest deputy director, conceived a plan to infiltrate New Camelot. All he needed was an opportunity for one of their agents to prove their heroism in front of Arthur. When he learned that Prospero went to Tombstone looking for a volunteer to become Khonshu's Avatar, and the latest super-villain on the Big Man's payroll, it's seemed like just the opportunity Agent Spector had been looking for.

While all this is happening, Prospero nears the end of his patience with his latest apprentice, Quentin Beck AKA Mysterio. Prospero had been hired by Doctor Octopus (after much convincing) to take on Mysterio as pupil. But Mysterio's utter ineptitude at true sorcery, and his tendency to accidentally set fire to Prospero's library, pushed the ageless sorcerer to his limit. After speaking with Doc Ock, Prospero (after much convincing) agrees to give Mysterio one last chance to redeem himself... by assisting in the Avatar ceremony.

Everything came to a head at the next full moon, when Prospero, Dr. Octopus, Mysterio and Shocker gathered for the ritual. Prospero succeeded in transforming Shocker into the Avatar of Khonshu just before either Arthur and his knights or Agents Spector and Coulson can intervene. Dubbing himself Time-Shock, NYC's newest supervillain used his new time manipulation powers to wreck havoc on our heroes. Fortunately, Agent Spector was able to use the Scroll of Thoth and his own eidetic memory to replicate Prospero's spell, transforming himself into the new Avatar of Khonshu.

Unfortunately for Agent Spector, Mysterio inadvertently destroyed the Scroll of Thoth ensuing battle, leaving Marc and Khonshu no way to separate themselves. After Prospero, Octavius and Beck have made their escape, an impressed Arthur wastes little time in dubbing his new ally Sir Marc Spector... The Moon Knight.

Meanwhile, a thousand miles away in the shadow of the Great Pyramid... Osiris lived again.

!!Homecoming

!!Murder on the Oriental Zeta Tube
As the summer production of Shakespeare In the Park comes to an end, Lunette finally performs on stage. While she receives bad reviews she is determined to keep acting. But after her debut performances, Goliath leaves for New Camelot with Delilah, and Cordelia as the Labyrinth Clan has finally decided to join the Gargoyle Nation, and Cordelia is to stand as a witness in Reichsadler's trial. But before leaving, Cordelia is visited by Thailog who speaks his control code which sends her into a trance and he gives her instructions.

Upon arriving, the clones are greeted with suspicion and hostility from the likes of Praetor, the leader of the Pukhan Clan, and the leader of the Xanadu Clan... who is murdered by an unknown assailant later that night. Goliath and Griff immediately mount an investigation which quickly rules out Cordelia, Reichsadler and other suspects. Eventually, the murderer is revealed to be Proteus who snuck into New Camelot weeks ago. Proteus is quickly captured, and in the aftermath it is revealed that he was working with Periclymenus who has recently been inducted into the Illuminati along with the second in command of the Xanadu Clan who was inducted by the Mandarin. Now all the known clans are part of the Gargoyle Nation, and will soon be under the Society's influence.

Shortly after, the Labyrinth Clan is officially inducted into the Gargoyle Nation and Reichsadler is put on trial, showing no remorse for his actions. Cordelia speaks on his behalf, but he is sentenced to life in prison. Afterwards, thanks to a deal made by New Camelot and the Redemption Squad, Reichsadler is recruited into the team, to be judged by Yama as his warden.

Goliath, Delilah and Cordelia return to Manhattan and Cordelia, seemingly in grief over not being able to see Reichsadler one more time flies off, but she falls back into her trance and heads to Nightstone Unlimited where she gives Thailog a capsule with several robotic mosquitoes she used to steal DNA samples from each clan leader. He sends her back to the Labyrinth with no memory of him or their dealings.

!!Intermission III
The next several months were relatively quiet, Sarah Stacy, Mary Jane, and Peter Parker become friends, with Sarah making romantic plays on Peter... ultimately resulting in Mary Jane ending their relationship as Peter begins to see Sarah as a substitute for Gwen, and MJ won't play second fiddle. Around this time, Felicia Hardy is released from prison where she is given experimental enhancements from Xanatos in order to function as the Black Cat again, and sent to be Xanatos's spy inside Nightstone Unlimited, posing as a maintenance worker... as word of Thailog's latest project has 'intrigued' him, meanwhile the audience learns that Petros Xanatos is dying. Thailog purchases the property surrounding Into the Mystic in order to keep an eye on the London Clan.

Viper escapes from prison after being freed by several of her loyal troops, whom Sevarius upgraded into the Serpent Squad, and takes refuge at Khulan Borjigin's home where, much to Demona's lack of interest (as she spirited the egg and herself off to Paris), the Demon's Talon is folded into a resurgent HYDRA.

Meanwhile, Morgana le Fay completes her new army, lays siege to Avalon, defeats and imprisons Titania, claiming the island as her kingdom.

!!Desecration
Dracula contacts to Demona, offering her a small stash of Atlantean crystals in exchange for creating a Praying Vampire that would make Vlad and his vampire spawn nearly invincible. Demona completes the Praying Vampire in a blasphemous ritual involving the massacre of an entire Franciscan monastery. Demona has also secretly implanted a small explosive device in the statue to be used once Vlad has outlived his usefulness to her.

With Bathory, Baron Blood and a reluctant Morbius at his side, Vlad sets his sights on the conquest of Britain. Intending to use the Praying Vampire to transform it into a homeland for his Vampire Nation. Unknown to Vlad, Demona has already contacted Old Pog of the London Clan, warning him of the Vampire Lord's plot and providing him with the detonator for the bomb hidden in the Praying Vampire.

Things come to ahead as the London Clan confronts the Vampire Nation at Carfax Abby. Old Pog and Vlad face off, the veteran gargoyle warrior stabbing the Lord of Vampires through the heart, seemingly to no effect. Only when Vlad attempts to turn Pog, does the London Gargoyle reveal his trump card, the detonator provided by Demona (who was once a friend). As the Praying Vampire is blown to pieces, both gargoyle and vampire begin crumbling into dust.

In the wake of Vlad's true death, Bathory and the remaining vampires flee swearing vengeance and the London Clan return home to prepare Pog's Wind Ceremony. Later, in the now abandoned and desecrated Carfax Abby, the remains of the Praying Vampire begin to regenerate.

Three weeks later, an Axel Asher, an amalgam of both of the originals, emerged from a Zeta Tube and was discovered by Captain Atom. Not long after that, Montmarte was dropped off by the Phoenix, the only member of his clan still extant in this amalgamated universe. Eventually, the two of them came together along with Doctor Stephen Strange Sr. and Doctor Fate. The Mortal and Immortal Sorcerers Supreme came to an accord

of the nicest people in this series, but he doesn't tolerate villains just-recovered Deathstroke, Talia, Silver Sable, and Coldsteel enhanced with a Father Box, attacked Blood's home, stealing the Arcana Myrddin from him as well as forcing Etrigan to emerge. While King Arthur and Sir Griff managed to stop the Avatar's rampage, Klarion and the Enforcers all escaped.

A few weeks later, Batman and Batgirl, alongside Angela, Broadway, Lexington, and Guardian, broke up a meeting between Demona, now part of the Light, and Cordelia with Drs. Sevarius and Crane who had developed a new “Fear Plague.” Unfortunately, all escaped in the chaos caused when The Phantasm appeared and blanketed everyone with the Fear Plague via her smoke. At the same time, the new Sinister Sixteen were ordered to cause distractions in New York to keep both the League and the rest of the Manhattan Clan occupied. If the gargoyles had not been immune to the Fear Plague (though they remained carriers until the carrier virus was eliminated), the humans

had been exposed would not have been taken to get help in time back at Wayne Manor...where a “guest” awaited a word with Bruce Wayne...Nerissa.

Nerissa had been a witness to the alteration of reality around her yet was untouched by it herself thanks to not being native. She stood with the group looking to save reality, ostensibly seeking to help, but while the rest continued their attempts to restore things to the way they were, Nerissa instead went on a quest for the Hearts affected by the amalgamation, supposedly to protect them from any further potential damage. She was accompanied by Zatanna and, eventually, the two met Firebrand, another universal outsider like Nerissa, saving him from a foolish attack upon a group of Quarrymen, and convinced him to aid them.

It had been discovered that the Gateways had somehow become resonant with one another – one in Central City, the other in Paris – and the warping between them was the cause of the universal merging. The warping energies were eventually moved to the Watchtower but at great cost...for The Light and their Partner had seen fit to revive Queen Mab, still alive in this new reality and made aware of her demise in the previous one, with the tome stolen from Jason Blood. Determined not to suffer the same fate, Queen Mab infiltrated the merged Gateway Room. Utilizing the warping effects to be in both cities simultaneously, she grew to immense size in both Central City and Paris and destroyed both cities with power equivalent to a nuclear device, killing Barry and Bart Allen along with millions of others as well as throwing Captain Atom forward into 2198.

Even the Watchtower would turn out not to be secure enough as the Enforcers of the Light invaded and took the station (and thus the warp) thanks to the merger of the Zeta Tube systems – Riddler discovered a backdoor through the Gateway Dynamics programming. However, Axel managed to save himself and the just-married Adam Strange by utilizing the warp itself to escape back to Earth. However now, not only were the Light's Enforcers in possession of the Watchtower, they were soon supplemented by the Sinister Sixteen, led by the returned Green Goblin.

The League and their allies, including Tony Stark of the Avengers, began to prepare
for a year before final assault to retake the Watchtower as the Light began to withdraw to Apokolips. Demona, having already failed to convince Angela to come with her and be saved, chose this moment to betray the rest of the clan Light and Elisa found out from him after Gwen Stacy died.

[[quoteright:325:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Demona_5641.png]]
!!! Demona/Dominique Destine
Once she was Goliath's great love, now she is his greatest enemy. She will stop at nothing to destroy the human race leaving gargoyles the rulers of the Earth with her ruling the gargoyles. This pretty much makes her almost everyone on this character sheet's enemy... but she is always her own worst enemy.

* TheAloner: Seeing nearly all of the Wyvern Clan slaughtered by the vikings, followed by decades of watching the remnants of her species being slaughtered by the Hunter and his human allies (often through her own fault, though she remains in denial about that), have left her completely, helplessly, maddeningly alone. Centuries of endless pursuit by the Canmore dynasty have made her even more bitter.
* AntiVillain: Demona is actually '''not''' an example of this trope, but a big point is made about how she ''thinks'' she's a clear-cut [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Type III]], when she isn't. If anything, she's a deconstructed type II (this tragic villain is tragic because of her own self-destructive tendencies more than anything, and being sympathetic does ''not'' excuse her crimes).
* TheApprentice: In her youth, to the Archmage.
* ArchEnemy: Goliath, Brooklyn, Elisa, Broadway, Macbeth, Hunter... she practically collects them.
%%* TheAtoner: What Brooklyn has strongly hinted she will be in the far future.
%%* AxCrazy: On occasion.
* BareYourMidriff: In her default outfit.
%%* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Happens to her a lot.
* BeautyIsBad: Very attractive, as well as untrustworthy, vicious, and quite possibly insane.
* BerserkButton: She's got an entire console of berserk buttons, although her hatred of Elisa is probably the newest and most reliable.
* BigBad: She's the most recurring villain of the role play. Although she has shared the title with Mab, the Green Goblin, and Morgana le Fay.
* BoomerangBigot: Played with a twist. She wants to Kill All Humans for nearly wiping out her species, but when she asks Puck to make her not turn to stone during the day (as gargoyles do), he grants her request by making her turn into a human from dawn to dusk every day. Notably, this doesn't stop her — instead, it just lets her find more ways of reaching her goals, since she can now blend in with her "enemies" undetected. She easily takes to human society and tools, such as human sorcery and technology, even before she gained her human transformation curse. She even owns her own freaking company (named Nightstone)! For all of her hatred towards humans, Demona fits in far more with human civilization than she does with her fellow gargoyles.
* CarryABigStick: Her up-close WeaponOfChoice is a mace (though she also wields various laser rifles at range).
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: She has ultimately betrayed just about every group she has ever worked with.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: As Dominique Destine.
* CursedWithAwesome: ''Twice''. First when she's linked to Macbeth so neither can die except at the hand of the other. There is a fairly hefty downside, but still. Then, Puck gives her a parting "gift" of human form during the day. She's angry at first, but it's a big help for her nefarious plans.
%%* CuteLittleFangs
* TheCynic: Demona believes the worst in ''everyone''.
* DarkActionGirl: Evil, seductive, and a very skilled warrior.
%%* DebtDetester
* EmbarrassingNickname: Spider-Man has nicknamed her "Moany."
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She clearly loves her (heroic) daughter Angela — but unfortunately, this just gives her more rationalization for [[KillAllHumans Killing All Humans]].
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Despite having been allies with Macbeth for nearly forty years, she had no trouble whatsoever believing that he would readily betray her and her clan for his own gain. The consequences of her reaction to this were, to say the least, devastating for all involved.
* EvilCounterpart: A pretty extreme example as she's one to [[UpToEleven Goliath, Elisa, and Angela.]]
* EvilMatriarch: She loves Angela so much, she's willing to kill humanity to protect her. Well, she was going to kill humanity ''anyway,'' but she really loves Angela.
* EvilPlan: The total and complete extinction of the human race.
* EvilRedhead: She's evil, and she's a redhead.
* EvilSorceress: Another given; she's evil, and she's a sorceress.

* FemmeFatalons: Not just her gargoyle talons, but even as ''Dominique Destine'', she files her fingernails into sharp points.
* FieryRedhead: As hot-tempered as her hair color implies.
* ForWantOfANail: Most of the main events of the story started because of her including the destruction of the clan at Castle Wyvern, the creation of The Hunter, and of course her own paranoia about humanity itself.
* GreenEyedMonster: She still grudgingly carries feelings for Goliath, but characteristically this just means she tries to [[MurderTheHypotenuse murder any hypotenuses that look Goliath's way]], particularly Elisa Maza.
* HeelFaceTurn: According to Brooklyn, Demona is destined to have one and help save the world for humans and gargoyles alike. But it won't be for another two hundred years.
* HeelRealization: Has these several times, for a BigBad.
Grimorum once again. Unfortunately, she proves herself a grand champion at [[IgnoredEpiphany ignoring them]].
* HeroesWantRedheads: She
was Goliath's mate, after all. Averted when her true personality showed.
* HotWitch: She does have magical abilities after all.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: Her strongest belief.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Demona sees herself as the self-proclaimed savior of her race, and that Goliath and those who stand
not prepared to deal with him will be the death of the race. Never mind the fact that she herself caused the birth of the Hunter, their generations, and indirectly the Quarrymen, whose sole purpose is to destroy they Gargoyles with extreme prejudice. And she had the gall to say Goliath with be the death of all of them? If anything, SHE was the one Darkseid, who nearly caused Gargoyle extinction.
** She claims that Goliath had been corrupted by humanity, yet Demona has, over the years, become more "human" than Goliath ever has.
** In ''Sanctuary'', Demona and Thailog are lovers. Demona accuses Goliath of being jealous and paranoid of their love. In reality, Demona is jealous of Goliath's love with Elisa and is truly paranoiac herself.
* IgnoredEpiphany: Demona lives and breathes this trope. Ignoring the truth behind all the death and destruction she has caused is probably the only way she can continue to function.
%%* ImmortalImmaturity
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Whether the Hunters do it, or the Green Goblin... she always got better.
* {{Jossed}}: Used to often sip wine in her down time. After Creator/GregWeisman revealed that her drink of choice is likely water, she hasn't been seen with a drink since.
* KillAllHumans: Her primary goal in life.
* KnightTemplar: Subverted; she's ''convinced'' herself her cause is noble, but it's really just her lashing out at the world due to all the pain she's brought upon herself.
* LadyMacbeth: She subtly encouraged Erichthonius to attempt to seize the leadership of the New Olympian Clan, and she is also playing Jove and Baron Strucker. Taken to the nadir when the Weird Sisters trapped her and others inside their own magical production of Shakespeare's Macbeth where Demona was cast as Lady Macbeth.
* LivingForeverIsAwesome: There is no deadline for her to exterminate humans. She can keep trying until Doom's Day.
* MagicKnight: She uses her powerful magic and formidable combat skills about evenly.

** She pulled this on Angela again, in a very serious fashion. She did regret it afterward, but the beating she took was well deserved.
* MeaningfulName: Her alias "Dominique Destine" literally means "Divine Destiny."
** Also Macbeth gave her the name "Demona" because he said she fought like a demon.
* ModestyBedsheet: Used one in a London hotel suite when she was suddenly woken up naked in bed and ran out on to the balcony, sensing great magic before
quickly jetting off set fire to Paris.
* MsFanService: One of
the most attractive females in the cast, skies overhead and not especially shy about it.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: SubvertedTrope. She came close to this but then dismissed it.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Demona the demon.
* NeverLiveItDown: In-Universe. As Dominique Destine, she slept with Tony Stark. Yes, it was to steal his armory, but no one is letting her forget it and Stark wears it as a badge of honor.
* NeverMyFault: Employed in a ''very'' serious fashion. If there is one defining character flaw for Demona, this is it. Most of her troubles and emotional agonies are entirely her fault, and her refusal to admit any responsibility on her part is the basis for her bitterness AND her racism, all of which she formed mostly to avoid the overwhelming guilt she would feel.
* NotSoDifferent: Demona and John Castaway.
* PainfulTransformation: Her shift to human during the day and back again.
* PsychoExGirlfriend: Psycho ex-mate to Goliath, although it's more justified with Thailog.
* RemovedAchillesHeel: Demona doesn't turn into stone during the day, unlike

Zatanna's memories of the show W.I.T.C.H. were restored in the presence of the Hearts and she faced Nerissa

* AmazonChaser: For Fox. You can see them sparring.
* AntiHero: After his sort-of-HeelFaceTurn. He's ''still'' an amoral machiavellian bastard, but one who's willing to at least partially work with the gargoyles rather than always against them and whose PetTheDog relationship with his family is much more pronounced. But he's also still an...

The daughter of Arthur Stacy, and cousin of Gwen. Coming to New York in order to help set her family's affairs in order resulted in her ending up on a Skiff with Griff, a mess of adventures on their own "World Tour," and ultimately her deciding to found the Order of the Guardian in the modern age.

The son of the previous Sorcerer Supreme, currently using the title without fully understanding it and seeking a proper master from which to expand his magical skills.

A clone of Gwen Stacy created by Harry Osborn. With death imminent without periodic visits to Curt Connors, she has since chosen to create her own identity... and moved into the Labyrinth, and befriended Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. This does not work out, as she falls for Peter and he's more attracted to her than he wants to admit, as she reminds him of Gwen. This eventually blows up, as she resents everything about her existence, allowing for Nerissa to transform her into her second Knight of Conquest, Fury the Goblin Knight.

She tried to be her own person, but couldn't escape Gwen's shadow, and Gwen's memories (at least what Harry programmed into her)... she developed feelings for Peter whose attraction to her was as a substitute Gwen. Her genetic code was flawed, death could hit her any time. She moved into the Labyrinth and try as she might, she hated it there. She resented Gwen for not being her, resented Mary Jane, and everything else about her life. Then along came Nerissa.

In modern times she learned [[spoiler:that she was actually Gloriana, the changeling daughter of Oberon and Titania, and was named by Queen Mab as her heir.]] Morgana has formed her own Knights of Vengeance and has slowly been amassing an army.

!!! Countess Erzsébet Báthory
A countess who bathed in the blood of virgins in life, she later willingly became a vampire in order to achieve eternal life.

* BloodBath: She is the TropeMaker, after all.
* LukeIAmYourFather: Since the vampire DNA used to mutate Michael Morbius came from her, she considers herself to be Michael's mother "after a fashion." Michael vehemently disagrees.
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Shares "rules" with Dracula, who is also the one who turned her in the first place.
* VirginSacrifice: All vampires acquire particular "tastes," apparently. This is hers.

!!! Queen La
The Queen of Opar, a lost city in Edgar Rice Burrough's Literature/{{Tarzan}} novels. She joined forces with Morgana with the promise of ruling Africa.

* {{Atlantis}}: Hinted to be Atlantean by birth. The sheer amount of {{Orichalcum}} located in both cities certainly supports this.

!!! Todd "Tiger Shark" Arliss
A former Olympic champion swimmer who willingly allowed himself to be mutated with [[StockNessMonster Loch Ness Monster DNA]] in order to cure his damaged spine.

* AGodAmI: Shades of it, an attitude he shares with regard to fellow superhumans.
* AttentionWhore: Both the reason he became an Olympic-level athlete, and why we willingly turned supervillain when asked. He actually demands that a bystander "get his good side" when robbing a museum.
* HonorAmongThieves: By far the most eager and willing of the mutates produced for Morgana, as he's grateful for the power and the glory.

!!! John Jameson/Colonel Jupiter/Man-Wolf
The son of J. Jonah Jameson and a former astronaut, driven mad by his longing for alien spores that at one point gave him SuperStrength. His desire to get back "the power" enabled Sevarius and Prospero to transform him into a [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent werewolf-like creature]].

%%* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent
* TransformationTrinket: A moon rock held by Prospero.

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130817185818/http://spring.me/SpecMorbius Dr. Michael Morbius, The Living Vampire]]
A Greek grad student whose obsession with curing his own terminal blood illness played right into the hands of Morgana's and Sevarius' plans to tinker with [[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampire DNA]]. Now christened ComicBook/{{Morbius}} the Living Vampire, he's joined Morgana's Knights of Vengeance less because he believes in their goals... and more because he sees no other choice.

* TheAlcoholic: Took the refusal of [[{{Jerkass}} Dr. Warren]] to help him somewhat... badly. In hindsight, probably counts as {{Foreshadowing}}.
* ButtMonkey: Perhaps the only person in the Universe with worse luck than Peter Parker.
* DeadpanSnarker: Since coming into Morgana's employ, nearly all of his dialogue has consisted of this.
* DespairEventHorizon: Reaching this is the reason he joined Morgana. He knows she's probably lying when she promises to "make it stop hurting," but the only alternative he can see is to give up all hope completely.
* {{Fanboy}}: Of Anton Sevarius, initially. Not so much now.
* HealthcareMotivation: The lack of funding for his research into a cure is what brought him to Sevarius in the first place.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Initially refers to [[EvilutionaryBiologist Sevarius]] as his "guardian angel." This... changed.
* InTheBlood: In a remarkably literal example, Michael suffers from β-thalassemia major - an ultimately fatal genetic blood disorder.
* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Has shades of one, mostly because he's had very little success with the legitimate academic establishment. He's nowhere near his [[MadScientist mentor's]] level, though.
** And when he learns that not only himself, but several others were mutated by Sevarius without consent, he is ''furious.'' Not that it did any good at that point.
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: A hybrid of human, vampire bat, and ''actual'' vampire DNA. As a result he lacks many of the more "fantastic" powers of vampires, but he also lacks most of their weaknesses as well.
* ProfessorGuineaPig: Played straight with his intention to test his thalassemia cure on himself. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in that the [[OurVampiresAreDifferent real reason]] he was recruited by Sevarius has little to do with said cure.
* StarvingStudent: Was this pretty much perpetually, before coming to work in Sevarius' lab.

!!! Orochi 2.0
* AdmiringTheAbomination: You get the sense Taro really enjoyed seeing the totally-not-Mechaghidorah creation upon its big reveal.

!!! Hunter/Robyn Canmore
The middle child of the modern-day Canmore siblings, and the former second-in-command of Jason's band of Hunters.

%%* AntiHero
* AwesomeAussie: And damn proud of it, mates!
* TheAtoner: For his time as a mercenary, particularly as a member of the Pack.
* BelligerentSexualTension: With Hunter.
%%* BoxedCrook
* WeaponOfChoice: He's pretty versatile, using everything from guns to bolos with incredible proficiency. But as the resident AwesomeAussie, is there really anything more appropriate than a good ol' BattleBoomerang?

!!! Matrix
A Xanatos Enterprises nano-tech project that developed into a full-blown ArtificialIntelligence. While it was initially created to "pursue order," and judged that it needed to [[ApocalypseHow spread itself across the planet Earth]] in order to do so, Dingo was able to convince it to stop and join forces with him.

* AchillesHeel: While it's one of the most powerful non-magical entities around, it can be disabled completely with an EMP.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "Law and order." Dingo only stopped it initially because his request to pursue "law and order" instead convinced Matrix that its programming parameters were incomplete. As such the AI pursues a greater understanding of the phrase with just as much vigor.
%%* InstantAIJustAddWater
%%* {{Nanomachines}}
* NoSenseOfHumor: Comes with the territory of a mechanical mind. It ''does'' appreciate "musical rhythms," however.
* TheSymbiote: When joining with Dingo in battle, Matrix acts something like this.

!!! Yama
Formerly the Second-in-Command of the Ishimura Clan, he was banished after betraying the Clan by enacting a secret plan with Taro. He will be allowed back only when ''he'' has determined he's earned redemption... and unfortunately, there is no harsher judge of Yama's actions than Yama himself.

* TheAtoner: For betraying his Clan to Taro, as he initially believed that Taro's [[ThemeParkVersion Gargoyles Theme Park]] was the best way to take initiative toward the inevitable [[BrokenMasquerade reveal]] of the Ishimura Clan to the public.
* HonorBeforeReason: Shades of this, especially in his lapsed relationship with his mate Sora; she offered to join him in exile, but he refused to return to her until he found redemption.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: His preferred WeaponOfChoice.
* {{Ronin}}: Has explicitly referred to himself as this.

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130818105616/http://spring.me/FangMutate Fang]]
One of Sevarius' first round of mutates. Initially a homeless man named Fred Sykes, he tried to [[TheCoup wrest control]] of the Labyrinth from Talon, but ended up imprisoned there as a result. After fighting the Redemption Squad on their first real mission, he ended up joining the team.

%%* BoxedCrook
%%* HalfHumanHybrid
* {{Jerkass}}: The vast majority of the time.
** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: This shows up, however, when the subject turns to his old friend Flint Marko. The fact that they still haven't been able to separate "Mud-Thing" frustrates the hell out of Fang.
* ShockAndAwe: Has the ability to fire bolts of electricity from his hands.

[[quoteright:336:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sandman1_6176.jpg]]
!!! Sandman/Flint Marko
A small-time crook transformed into [[ElementalShapeshifter a mass of living sand]] by an [=OsCorp=] experiment. While initially an active supervillain, in it "for the big score," his unwillingness to hurt people led him on the road to something resembling a HeelFaceTurn.

* AntiVillain: Type I. He's greedy for money, but isn't out to hurt people unless it's in self defense.
* TheAtoner: Joined the Redemption Squad shortly after the Gang War Arc.
%%* BlobMonster
%%* TheBrute
%%* DishingOutDirt

* FusionDance: An accidental one with Hydro-Man, merging them both into the entirely unwanted form of "Mud-Thing." Months later, no solution has been found to separate them.
%%* HiddenHeartOfGold
* NobleDemon: As a supervillain. His focus was entirely on getting rich through theft, not on {{Revenge}} (which he thinks is "for chumps") or killing people.

%%* DragonWithAnAgenda
* EvilIsPetty: Well they're not evil per-se, but they can hold a grudge.
%%* TheFairFolk
* GambitRoulette: Their plan to use Demona, Macbeth and the Archmage to regain control of Avalon would be one, [[SubvertedTrope except that]] the Sisters seem to have some ability to see the future and therefore could predict where their pawns would end up.
* HairColors: The only way to tell them apart. Phoebe has golden hair (and is [[HairOfGoldHeartOfGold the relatively nice one]]), symbolizing Grace, Luna has MysticalWhiteHair and is the most detached, symbolizing Fate, and Seline a EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette who symbolizes Vengeance.
* TheHecateSisters: As a reference to the Maiden/Mother/Crone mythology, they appear in disguises of various ages. Demona sees them as three elderly female gargoyles, Macbeth sees them as three elderly human women, Goliath sees them as three little human girls, etc.
** WordOfGod says that, depending on which sister is in ascendance at the moment, they are the three Graces, the three Fates, or the three Furies, but also that they always have aspects of all three identities.

The Goblin King of ''Film/{{Labyrinth}}'', revealed here to be half-brother to Lord Oberon. They share a father (Literature/TheErlKing), whereas his mother is stated to be [[Literature/TheChroniclesOfNarnia Jadis, the White Witch of Charn]].

* DaddyIssues: Betrayed Oberon because the Erlking promised to make him his heir, an offer he never got from Oberon.

[[quoteright:325:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Mab_484.jpg]]
!!! Queen Mab
The ruler of the Third Race long ago, and the reason why almost none of them have any interest in deposing Lord Oberon. Mother to Oberon, [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Maleficent]], and numerous others, Mab was a GodOfEvil extraordinaire whose reign over Earth was about the worst thing to ever happen to it.

Sealed by her son with help from Merlin and a time-traveling Brooklyn, she was foolishly released by Demona and Morgana le Fay in an attempt to fulfill their own agenda; Mab quickly taught them that EvilIsNotAToy. Releasing all the "Children of Mab" still loyal to her, Mab reformed the [[LegionOfDoom Unseelie Court]] and [[TyrantTakesTheHelm seized back control of Avalon]]. Only by the combined efforts of virtually every character on Earth was her army defeated, and the MadGod slain once and for all.

* BigBad: Universally regarded as the most insanely evil and and powerful being to ever walk the Earth. It took the combined might of the Manhattan, Avalon, and London Clans, King Arthur's followers, The Redemption Squad, plus most of the surviving Third Race to put her down for good. Basically, she's the closest equivalent the [=SpecGargVerse=] has to Morgoth.
%%* TheDreaded
* DreamWeaver: She wasn't called the Nightmare Queen for nothing.
* FightOffTheKryptonite: While she shared the Third Race's natural weakness to iron, she was so obscenely powerful that only ''all the molten iron in the Earth's core'' was enough to do more than slow her down.
%%* GodOfEvil
%%* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen
* KilledOffForReal: Impaled with the Spear of Destiny by Goliath, and her soul was promptly devoured by Ammut. But, as Morgoth did in the works of Creator/JRRTolkien, Mab left quite the legacy.
* LargeHam: Unfortunately, she could definitely back up all the over-the-top EvilLaughter. In spades.
* MadGod: The maddest.
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: In the final battle, she grows from about six inches in height to twelve-feet.
* OrderVersusChaos: Oberon vs. Mab, in a nutshell.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Her preferred form is only about six inches tall.
* SealedEvilInACan: She was imprisoned in the Earth's iron core.
* TakeUpMySword: Her post-mortem message to her granddaughter, Morgana le Fay, amounted to this.
%%* TyrantTakesTheHelm: And it ain't pretty.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Her general response to failure on the part of her followers was to [[InvoluntaryShapeshifting turn the offender]] into something [[BalefulPolymorph harmless and humiliating]].

!!! Apophis
An enormous serpent from Myth/EgyptianMythology, with a fervent desire to consume the sun - or, at minimum, a few [[PowerOfTheSun Sun Gods]].

%%* KilledOffForReal: Be prepared to see this trope a lot in the next few entries; the Unseelie Court did not come out of the Second Mab War in very good shape.
* OmnicidalManiac: Inferred, as his stated life's ambition is to eat the sun.

!!! Balor of the Evil Eye
King of the Fomorians, a race of giants in Myth/IrishMythology, and a sworn enemy of the Dagda.

* BalefulPolymorph: Turned into a wine pouch by Mab [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness for his failures]] and died when he was drunk by Sekhmet.
* KilledOffForReal: See above.

!!! Cethlenn of the Crooked Teeth
Fomorian prophetess and widow of Balor of the Evil Eye.

* TheRemnant: One of the few remaining Mab loyalists still among the living.

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130815165848/http://spring.me/HummingbirdLeft Huitzilopochtli]]
A WarGod of Myth/AztecMythology, and one of the most bloodthirsty members of the Unseelie Court (which is ''really'' saying something).

* BeatStillMyHeart: Given how obsessed he was with the sacrifice of human hearts, that this was his final fate is quite the DeathByIrony.
%%* GodEmperor
%%* HumanSacrifice
* KilledOffForReal: Had his heart carved out with iron weapons by Raven, Coyote, and Natsilane. ''Ouch.''

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130828002300/http://spring.me/TiamatApsu Great Tiamat]]
An enormous serpent in Myth/MesopotamianMythology, with a remarkably ample [[ReallyGetsAround sexual appetite]]. Also the mother of Kingu.

* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Given all her flirting with both Apophis and Nidhoggr, this was certainly her type.
* AnythingThatMoves: ...Not that she had a problem with this, either.
* KilledOffForReal: The first to go, at the hands of Marduk.
%%* OurDragonsAreDifferent

!!! Typhon
The Father of All Monsters and archenemy to the [[Myth/GreekMythology Greek Gods]], Zeus in particular.

* NeverFoundTheBody: The one member of the Unseelie Court who managed to escape capture and/or death. So far, he hasn't turned up again.

Literature/TheErlKing, a terrifying German spirit with a taste for stealing away mortal children. With Mab, he is the father of both Lord Oberon and [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Maleficent]]. With [[Literature/TheChroniclesOfNarnia Jadis, the White Witch of Charn]], he is also father to [[Film/{{Labyrinth}} Jareth the Goblin King]].

%%* TheDragon: To Mab.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: The only one of Mab's army who was truly upset by the loss of his comrades, especially when Griff and the Green Knight finished off the Elf Knight, his own personal [[TheDragon Dragon]].
* {{Hellhound}}: When he doesn't just kill them, he sometimes [[InvoluntaryShapeshifting turns]] mortal children into these.
* HotConsort: At least, Mab seemed to think so.
* LukeYouAreMyFather: Says this to Hermes. Though, as with most things in Mab's BigScrewedUpFamily, this should probably be taken with a grain of salt.
* TheWildHunt: Has the power to compel mortals to partake in this.

!!! Kingu
A god in Myth/MesopotamianMythology, and the son of Tiamat.

* AvengingTheVillain: After Marduk killed his mother, Kingu vowed - and achieved - revenge on the God of the City.
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: As he wields the Tablets of Destiny, he believes these forces to be on his side. It is not until after his death that Kingu realizes his destiny was to fail.
* KilledOffForReal: Like mother, like son.

!!! Cronus
The King of [[OurTitansAreDifferent the Titans]] in Myth/GreekMythology, and father to many of the Olympians.

* TheGrimReaper: Identified with elements of this, being a harvest deity who wields a SinisterScythe.

* KilledOffForReal: See above.

!!! The Elf Knight
A lecherous spirit from the European ballad "Lady Isabel and the Elf Knight." Also identified with the character Literature/{{Bluebeard}}.

* TheBluebeard: In-universe, he would be the TropeMaker. Known for his taste for luring mortal women into his bed, and to their doom shortly thereafter.
* TheDragon: To the Erlking, who was TheDragon to Mab. That's right, the Dragon had a Dragon.
* KilledOffForReal: By the Green Knight, King Arthur, and Sir Griff. Being run through by Excalibur has got to hurt.

!!! Aurgelmir/Ymir
A primeval and horrific being from Myth/NorseMythology, supposedly killed by Odin long ago.

* AnIcePerson: While his profile picture suggests this, it's rather too limiting a description to apply to a creature like Ymir.
* KilledOffForReal: Swallowed up by ''Matrix'', of all things. As nanotechnology had never been used against a Child of Mab before, Ymir had no way of summoning up a countermeasure.

!!! Surt
A [[OurGiantsAreBigger giant]] from the fiery realm of Múspell, whose coming is foretold to be a major component of [[ApocalypseHow Ragnarok]].

* PlayingWithFire: In the same way a hurricane can be described as playing with air.
* KilledOffForReal: Swallowed up by ''Matrix'', of all things. As nanotechnology had never been used against a Child of Mab before, Surt had no way of summoning up a countermeasure.

!!! Nidhoggr
A massive dragon that gnaws at the roots of [[WorldTree Yggdrasil]].

* KilledOffForReal: By Odin and a contingent of Avalonian gargoyles.
* OurDragonsAreDifferent

* AdaptationExpansion: In Gargoyles canon, Erik and Gunther are essentially blank slates. Their player(s) have taken advantage of this to give them rather... interesting characterizations.

!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130825023605/http://spring.me/StoneofDestiny The Stone of Destiny]]
An entity which seems to embody the very idea of "Destiny." The Spirit of Destiny speaks through stones, but in fact there is nothing special about any individual vessel; the Spirit can speak through ''any'' stone on Earth.

Was later featured in ''DarthWiki/TheSpectacularOmniverse''.

* BecauseDestinySaysSo: Literally.
* CosmicKeystone: Single-handedly serves as this for the entire Spectacular Gargoyles Universe. It is one of the few entities powerful enough to deny [[OmnicidalManiac the man in white]] and other threats from the greater Spectacular Omniverse from entering the world it guards.

* NonLinearCharacter: It has spoken the same speech - a BadassBoast incorporating its [[IHaveManyNames many, many names]] - to a number of individuals. But while they may experience the speech years or decades apart, from the Spirit's perspective it is speaking to them simultaneously.

An entity resembling a massive firebird, which conducts an endless StableTimeLoop across all of history - occasionally taking others along for the ride.

* BerserkButton: Go ahead. Say something to the giant blazing firebird about changing history, or any other method of TimeTravel that doesn't result in a StableTimeLoop. [[SchmuckBait I dare ya]].
%%* ThePhoenix:
* StableTimeLoop: It's the only type of TimeTravel that works in the Spectacular Gargoyles Universe, and this is why.

The Green Knight\n\n!!! Grandmother\n\n!!! Tha\n\n!!! How Fear Came\n\n!!! Cobweb\n\n!!! Peaseblossom\n\n!!! Atlantes\n\n!!! Amar\n\n!! Children of Mab\n\n[[quoteright:325:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Mab_484.jpg]]\n!!! Queen Mab\nThe ruler of the Third Race long ago, and the reason why almost none of them have any interest in deposing Lord Oberon. Mother to Oberon, [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Maleficent]], and numerous others, Mab was a GodOfEvil extraordinaire whose reign over Earth was about the worst thing to ever happen to it.\n\nSealed by her son with help from Merlin and a time-traveling Brooklyn, she was foolishly released by Demona and Morgana le Fay in an attempt to fulfill their own agenda; Mab quickly taught them that EvilIsNotAToy. Releasing all the "Children of Mab" still loyal to her, Mab reformed the [[LegionOfDoom Unseelie Court]] and [[TyrantTakesTheHelm seized back control of Avalon]]. Only by the combined efforts of virtually every character on Earth was her army defeated, and the MadGod slain once and for all.\n\n* BigBad: Universally regarded as the most insanely evil and and powerful being to ever walk the Earth. It took the combined might of the Manhattan, Avalon, and London Clans, King Arthur's followers, The Redemption Squad, plus most of the surviving Third Race to put her down for good. Basically, she's the closest equivalent the [=SpecGargVerse=] has to Morgoth.\n%%* TheDreaded\n* DreamWeaver: She wasn't called the Nightmare Queen for nothing.\n* FightOffTheKryptonite: While she shared the Third Race's natural weakness to iron, she was so obscenely powerful that only ''all the molten iron in the Earth's core'' was enough to do more than slow her down.\n%%* GodOfEvil\n%%* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen\n* KilledOffForReal: Impaled with the Spear of Destiny by Goliath, and her soul was promptly devoured by Ammut. But, as Morgoth did in the works of Creator/JRRTolkien, Mab left quite the legacy.\n* LargeHam: Unfortunately, she could definitely back up all the over-the-top EvilLaughter. In spades.\n* MadGod: The maddest.\n* MakeMyMonsterGrow: In the final battle, she grows from about six inches in height to twelve-feet.\n* OrderVersusChaos: Oberon vs. Mab, in a nutshell.\n* PintSizedPowerhouse: Her preferred form is only about six inches tall.\n* SealedEvilInACan: She was imprisoned in the Earth's iron core.\n* TakeUpMySword: Her post-mortem message to her granddaughter, Morgana le Fay, amounted to this.\n%%* TyrantTakesTheHelm: And it ain't pretty.\n* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Her general response to failure on the part of her followers was to [[InvoluntaryShapeshifting turn the offender]] into something [[BalefulPolymorph harmless and humiliating]].\n\n!!! Apophis\nAn enormous serpent from Myth/EgyptianMythology, with a fervent desire to consume the sun - or, at minimum, a few [[PowerOfTheSun Sun Gods]].\n\n%%* KilledOffForReal: Be prepared to see this trope a lot in the next few entries; the Unseelie Court did not come out of the Second Mab War in very good shape.\n* OmnicidalManiac: Inferred, as his stated life's ambition is to eat the sun.\n\n!!! Balor of the Evil Eye\nKing of the Fomorians, a race of giants in Myth/IrishMythology, and a sworn enemy of the Dagda.\n\n* BalefulPolymorph: Turned into a wine pouch by Mab [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness for his failures]] and died when he was drunk by Sekhmet.\n* KilledOffForReal: See above.\n\n!!! Cethlenn of the Crooked Teeth\nFomorian prophetess and widow of Balor of the Evil Eye.\n* FanDisservice: Wears a skimpy shift. Looks like [[http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DLg-CqZ9c2o/UIl9CllDZlI/AAAAAAAAhNw/4K6HgdEnZM0/s1600/500Loogaroo.jpg this.]]\n* TheRemnant: One of the few remaining Mab loyalists still among the living.\n\n!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130815165848/http://spring.me/HummingbirdLeft Huitzilopochtli]]\nA WarGod of Myth/AztecMythology, and one of the most bloodthirsty members of the Unseelie Court (which is ''really'' saying something).\n\n* BeatStillMyHeart: Given how obsessed he was with the sacrifice of human hearts, that this was his final fate is quite the DeathByIrony.\n%%* GodEmperor\n%%* HumanSacrifice\n* KilledOffForReal: Had his heart carved out with iron weapons by Raven, Coyote, and Natsilane. ''Ouch.''\n\n!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130828002300/http://spring.me/TiamatApsu Great Tiamat]]\nAn enormous serpent in Myth/MesopotamianMythology, with a remarkably ample [[ReallyGetsAround sexual appetite]]. Also the mother of Kingu.\n\n* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Given all her flirting with both Apophis and Nidhoggr, this was certainly her type.\n* AnythingThatMoves: ...Not that she had a problem with this, either.\n* KilledOffForReal: The first to go, at the hands of Marduk.\n%%* OurDragonsAreDifferent\n\n!!! Typhon\nThe Father of All Monsters and archenemy to the [[Myth/GreekMythology Greek Gods]], Zeus in particular.\n\n* NeverFoundTheBody: The one member of the Unseelie Court who managed to escape capture and/or death. So far, he hasn't turned up again.\n\n!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130824123811/http://spring.me/Erlkoenig Der Erlkönig/The Alder King]]\nLiterature/TheErlKing, a terrifying German spirit with a taste for stealing away mortal children. With Mab, he is the father of both Lord Oberon and [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Maleficent]]. With [[Literature/TheChroniclesOfNarnia Jadis, the White Witch of Charn]], he is also father to [[Film/{{Labyrinth}} Jareth the Goblin King]].\n\n%%* TheDragon: To Mab.\n* EvenEvilHasStandards: The only one of Mab's army who was truly upset by the loss of his comrades, especially when Griff and the Green Knight finished off the Elf Knight, his own personal [[TheDragon Dragon]].\n* {{Hellhound}}: When he doesn't just kill them, he sometimes [[InvoluntaryShapeshifting turns]] mortal children into these.\n* HotConsort: At least, Mab seemed to think so.\n* LukeYouAreMyFather: Says this to Hermes. Though, as with most things in Mab's BigScrewedUpFamily, this should probably be taken with a grain of salt.\n* TheWildHunt: Has the power to compel mortals to partake in this.\n\n!!! Kingu\nA god in Myth/MesopotamianMythology, and the son of Tiamat.\n\n* AvengingTheVillain: After Marduk killed his mother, Kingu vowed - and achieved - revenge on the God of the City.\n* BecauseDestinySaysSo: As he wields the Tablets of Destiny, he believes these forces to be on his side. It is not until after his death that Kingu realizes his destiny was to fail.\n* KilledOffForReal: Like mother, like son.\n\n!!! Cronus\nThe King of [[OurTitansAreDifferent the Titans]] in Myth/GreekMythology, and father to many of the Olympians.\n\n* TheGrimReaper: Identified with elements of this, being a harvest deity who wields a SinisterScythe.\n* IAmAHumanitarian: Consumed his sons Zeus and Poseidon, killing them. Eating Poseidon was [[KillItThroughItsStomach probably a]] [[EverythingMakesAMushroom bad idea]].\n* KilledOffForReal: See above.\n\n!!! The Elf Knight\nA lecherous spirit from the European ballad "Lady Isabel and the Elf Knight." Also identified with the character Literature/{{Bluebeard}}.\n\n* TheBluebeard: In-universe, he would be the TropeMaker. Known for his taste for luring mortal women into his bed, and to their doom shortly thereafter.\n* TheDragon: To the Erlking, who was TheDragon to Mab. That's right, the Dragon had a Dragon.\n* KilledOffForReal: By the Green Knight, King Arthur, and Sir Griff. Being run through by Excalibur has got to hurt.\n\n!!! Aurgelmir/Ymir\nA primeval and horrific being from Myth/NorseMythology, supposedly killed by Odin long ago.\n\n* AnIcePerson: While his profile picture suggests this, it's rather too limiting a description to apply to a creature like Ymir.\n* KilledOffForReal: Swallowed up by ''Matrix'', of all things. As nanotechnology had never been used against a Child of Mab before, Ymir had no way of summoning up a countermeasure.\n\n!!! Surt\nA [[OurGiantsAreBigger giant]] from the fiery realm of Múspell, whose coming is foretold to be a major component of [[ApocalypseHow Ragnarok]].\n\n* PlayingWithFire: In the same way a hurricane can be described as playing with air.\n* KilledOffForReal: Swallowed up by ''Matrix'', of all things. As nanotechnology had never been used against a Child of Mab before, Surt had no way of summoning up a countermeasure.\n\n!!! Nidhoggr\nA massive dragon that gnaws at the roots of [[WorldTree Yggdrasil]].\n\n* KilledOffForReal: By Odin and a contingent of Avalonian gargoyles.\n* OurDragonsAreDifferent\n\n!!!

Humans Met on the World Tour\n!!! Eoin Dugan\nFather to Rory Dugan, and the main inspiration for his son to become an international hero.\n\n* PapaWolf: He may not have any superpowers, but when Rory is threatened he tries to hold off the Banshee and an evil Celtic god with an iron poker.\n\n!!! Erik and Gunther Sturluson\n* AdaptationExpansion: In Gargoyles canon, Erik and Gunther are essentially blank slates. Their player(s) have taken advantage of this to give them rather... interesting characterizations.\n%%* ManChild: [[FridgeHorror when you realize]] that if Alex is now 16, then Gunther must be 26 at the very least....\n\n!!! Lydia Duane & Arthur Morwood-Smyth\n\n!!! Master Dawa\n\n!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130819123034/http://spring.me/IshimuraHiroshi Hiroshi Hida]]\nAn officer with the Prefectural Police in Ishimura, Japan.

London Street Thugs\nSome thugs on the streets of London with a bad history of running into the London Clan. Believing anti-gargoyle propaganda from the Quarrymen and others, they once broke into Knight's Spur and murdered Falcor.\n\n%%* GangBangers\n* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Strong xenophobes who want to "keep England pure." \n\n!!! Max Loew\nA descendant of Rabbi Loew, the man who created the [[{{Golem}} Golem of Prague]]. Having awakened the Golem in the modern day, he attempts to guide it on the path of justice and mercy.\n\n* TheConscience: To the Golem.\n* KidWithTheLeash: Has also shown shades of this, as the Golem has grown progressively harder to control.\n\n!!

Xetes\n* GoodWingsEvilWings: One brother is depicted with white wings, the other black. It remains to be seen if this trope will be subverted, inverted, or just flat-out ignored.\n\n!!! Medusa\n%%* LegacyCharacter: If you can't guess what myth her name comes from, you really need to read up on the classics.\n\n!!! Faunus\n* FaunsAndSatyrs: Subverted.

Periclymenus\n%%* TheIlluminati: A Thirty-Six\n%%* VoluntaryShapeshifter\n* WellIntentionedExtremist: In Jove's faction of New Olympus because he honestly believes that the world needs New Olympian leadership.\n\n!!!

Arethusa\n* NatureSpirit: A naiad (freshwater nymph).\n* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Just a Senator trying to adequately address the concerns of her constituency.\n\n!!!

Erichthonius\nThe former second-in-command of the Mount Thanatos Clan, he was seduced by Demona and eventually became her third mate.\n\n* KilledOffForReal: And, after everything he'd done, you still almost felt bad for him.\n* PersonaNonGrata: The former Second of the New Olympian Clan, now banished from that island.\n* UnholyMatrimony: He wanted Demona to love him, and all he had to do was allow his former home and Clan to be attacked by HYDRA for it to happen. An atrocity he could have prevented with a two-minute phone call.\n* VillainousCrush: Inverted. He allied with Demona, and became her new mate.\n* WeaponOfChoice: The Heqat Staff. A traditional weapon among the New Olympian Clan.\n\n!!! Ammut of Mt. Thanatos\nShe's one of two gargoyle beast breeds found on Mt. Thanatos. The Ammut breed guards the temple entrance to the mountain. They are also popular pets with the younger gargoyles.\n\n!!!Sha of Mt. Thanatos\nThe Sha are bred for two specific purposes. To guard the rookery, and to guard the Mt. Thanatos vault.\n\n!! Atlantis\nThe depiction from ''WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'' has been made applicable thanks to the unproduced [[SequelSeries Team Atlantis]] {{Crossover}} episode "The Lost." The overall "canon" of the movie and its spinoff is applicable in BroadStrokes.\n\n!!! Queen Kidagakash\nOriginally seen in the film WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire, she is the Queen of the lost city of Atlantis.\n\n* CanonImmigrant: In a more literal sense thanks to the aforementioned {{crossover}} episode.\n* Really700YearsOld: More like around 8,500 if her husband's calculations are correct. The wonders of [[GreenRocks Orichalcum crystals]].\n\n!!! Milo Thatch\nOriginally seen in the film ''WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'', he is husband to Queen Kidagakash (or as he calls her, Kida).\n\n* CanonImmigrant: See his wife.\n* OlderThanTheyLook: Considering he should be somewhere in his hundreds... this is probably a safe bet.

Other\n!!! [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130825023605/http://spring.me/StoneofDestiny The Stone of Destiny]]\nAn entity which seems to embody the very idea of "Destiny." The Spirit of Destiny speaks through stones, but in fact there is nothing special about any individual vessel; the Spirit can speak through ''any'' stone on Earth. \n\nWas later featured in ''DarthWiki/TheSpectacularOmniverse''.\n\n* BecauseDestinySaysSo: Literally.\n* CosmicKeystone: Single-handedly serves as this for the entire Spectacular Gargoyles Universe. It is one of the few entities powerful enough to deny [[OmnicidalManiac the man in white]] and other threats from the greater Spectacular Omniverse from entering the world it guards.\n%%* IHaveManyNames\n* LivingMacGuffin: In a sense. See above.\n* NonLinearCharacter: It has spoken the same speech - a BadassBoast incorporating its [[IHaveManyNames many, many names]] - to a number of individuals. But while they may experience the speech years or decades apart, from the Spirit's perspective it is speaking to them simultaneously.\n\n!!! The Holy Grail\nA simple wooden cup connected both to the Christian tradition and to the Arthurian lore.\n\n* {{Forgiveness}}: As the Stone is said to be inhabited by the Spirit of Destiny, the Grail is said to house the Spirit of Mercy.\n%% * HolyGrail:\n* LivingMacGuffin: The Grail and the Stone are alike to each other in this way, and unlike anything else in the world they inhabit. What exactly they ''are'' is a question unlikely to ever be answered in full.\n\n!!! The Phoenix\nAn entity resembling a massive firebird, which conducts an endless StableTimeLoop across all of history - occasionally taking others along for the ride.\n\n* BerserkButton: Go ahead. Say something to the giant blazing firebird about changing history, or any other method of TimeTravel that doesn't result in a StableTimeLoop. [[SchmuckBait I dare ya]].\n%%* ThePhoenix:\n* StableTimeLoop: It's the only type of TimeTravel that works in the Spectacular Gargoyles Universe, and this is why.\n\n!!!

[[folder: Recap]]
''The Spectacular Gargoyles, with its LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters interacting in various permutations, can get a bit confusing for newcomers to follow. Here's a rough list of the [[StoryArc major Story Arcs]] that the [[UsefulNotes/{{Roleplaying}} Roleplay]] has engaged in so far.''

!!The Gang War
Demona and Dr. Octopus engage in a Gang War with New York caught in the middle. The gargoyles and Spidey attempt to restore order. This arc ended with Demona escaping to Paris, and Doc Ock getting arrested and sent to Ravencroft.

!!The Search for Merlin
Actually occurred before the Gang War, but it was the Gang War that activated and cemented the Roleplay. Griff, Myth/KingArthur, and Fleur seek out the Crystal Cave, and successfully revive Myth/{{Merlin}}.

!!The Search for the Holy Grail
Nimue leaves Avalon against Oberon's wishes, to explain her motives to Merlin for locking him up in the Crystal Cave. She is then poisoned by an unknown assailant. In order to save her life, King Arthur, Griff, and Fleur begin questing for the Holy Grail, eventually competing against Xanatos and Macbeth for the right to claim the cup.

!!London Clan Exposed
During the Grail arc, the Quarrymen expose the existence of the London Clan, and Demona attempts to wrest power from Una. At around this time the first of the {{Crossover}} characters begin to appear with Loki; a Multiversal traveler who accidentally creates a path that some of the [[ComicBook/CaptainAtom Flashback Clan]] use to cross over. Introduces [[DarthWiki/TheSpectacularOmniverse the Omniverse]] for the first time.

!!The Return of the Green Goblin
Norman Osborn returns, hires the best lawyers he can, and manages to clear himself of all charges of being the Green Goblin, although anyone with a brain can see through him. He quickly schemes to unmask Spidey and discovers he is actually Peter Parker. The two have been playing an unending metaphorical chess game ever since. Goblin also acquires a sample of Peter's DNA and used it to turn an ex-HYDRA agent named Jessica Drew into his own Spider-Woman.

!!PIT
A radical AnimalWrongsGroup called "The People for Interspecies Triumph," led by a zealous gargoyle-worshipping leader appears in Manhattan and performs terrorist attacks on the Quarrymen. The leader, Lacunae Rahdan, becomes mutated with gargoyle DNA by Sevarius and changes her name to Raksha. She then attempts to do the same thing to a large crowd, only for PIT to be defeated and for Raksha to be killed by Demona.

!!The Interview
A minor mini-arc around the beginning of the Mab arc. Travis Marshall interviews Goliath, Zafiro, Una, and Kai.

!!The Rising
Was being built towards even as far back the Grail and Gang War arcs. Morgana le Fey, seeking revenge upon Merlin, teams up with Demona to unleash Queen Mab — the most powerful and dangerous entity that ever existed. Back, before King Arthur was born, Oberon rebelled against his mother, Queen Mab. Joining forces with his bastard son, Merlin and a Time Dancing Brooklyn, Mab was defeated and thanks to blood from all Three Races, Mab was imprisoned and sealed within the Earth's iron core. Demona journeyed to Antarctica, bringing a jar of "Dominique Destine's" blood and she and Morgana spilled their blood within an ancient structure called the Antarctic Dance, and chanted the spell (the Mab poem from Romeo and Juliet), and unleashed Mab. Planning treachery, Demona attempted to imprison Mab within iron chains to enslave her, but failed. Mab seemingly killed Morgana and spared Demona to spread word of her rising. Mab then unleashed her Unseelie Court, composed of some of the most dangerous Eldritch Abominations from mythology: Apophis, Typhon, Balor, Surt, Tiamat, etc... she easily reconquered Avalon and imprisoned Oberon within the Earth's iron core.

The Rising lasted the longest (over several months) with a number of major events occurring. A number of characters died or almost bit the bucket. A large number of main characters went to Avalon, and more characters were introduced in this arc than any other.

The arc came to a climax when Mab came to Manhattan, planning to use the Empire State Building's antenna to create her eternal winter across the face of the Earth, potentially wiping out all life in the process. Merlin and Brooklyn freed Oberon and the Children of Oberon, along with the Manhattan Clan, the Avalon Clan, the London Clan, King Arthur's Knights, and Spider-Man battled her at the Empire State Building. Seeing another opportunity to destroy humanity and Mab, Demona made a failed attempt to take advantage of this by releasing an iron carrier virus and using Prospero's staff to take control of Mab's winter. Finally, Mab was slain when Goliath ran her through with TheSpearOfDestiny... she blew up, seemingly taking the Spear of Destiny with her. As a reward, Oberon declared that gargoyles the world over were immune to the arts of him and his people.

A number of minor things occurred around the end of the arc, including Thomeheb revealing that he had Tinkerer build a gate capable of reaching other universes in order to steal from them.

Three arcs began shortly after the Mab arc ended, at around the same time.

!!The Hobgoblin
The Hobgoblin, a new super-villian has arisen in New York, and had begun stealing from the Green Goblin and threatening the wealthiest—and some of the most corrupt—"People" in the Big Apple. The Hobgoblin also allied himself with Silver Sable in an attempt to rule the underworld, and after many twists, turns, red-herrings and murders, he was finally unmasked as Roderick Kingsley and brought to justice by Spider-Man.

!!Matrix/New Camelot Arc
After Matrix does some amazing things on Avalon while fighting Mab's forces, he's deemed to dangerous to live, so the Redemption Squad is ordered to take him down and destroy him. Dingo and Matrix run away before this can happen, and fall in with Falstaff's gang. This arc is was finished with the HYDRA attack on Paris.

!!The Attrition of the New Olympian Clan
Began when Demona arrived on New Olympus, and began sowing seeds of dissent within the ranks of the New Olympian Clan. This arc is not yet finished, but appears to have peaked at the moment, with the New Olympian Second Turning on his leader, and getting banished from the clan for his troubles. The banished second joined up with Jove, who Christens him 'Erichthonius', and who had allied with Demona in a devil's agreement before making his way to Manhattan and formally joining her.

!!The Skull of Ah Pukuh

After several attempts to run Spidey through a gauntlet, they lure Spidey to Times Square, and in the battle between Ock and Spidey, Captain Stacy is killed by falling debris. As he dies in Spidey's arms, he he reveals that he knew who Peter Parker was all along. Just as Ock is about to finish off Spidey, Officer Jean De Wolff takes him down, and the press labels her a hero cop. As both a reward for her service, and a political move, Mayor Waters has De Wolff promoted straight to lieutenant and placed in charge of a new Supervillain Taskforce.

Stripped of her costume and Spider-Woman title, Jessica and Montmarte escaped, but are chased down by Green Goblin and his Gob Squad, and while some of the gargoyles as well as Blanchefleur try to protect them, the phoenix appears and takes both of them to the future. The Goblin flies into the phoenix but is burned and sees fragments of the near future, a future he believes will be his triumph. This arc led into...

!!The Demon & The Goblin
The Green Goblin and Miles Warren mutated a mercenary named Paul Pierre into the Grey Gargoyle thanks to their studies of Montmarte. They set him loose on a Quarryman rally where he is defeated by Spider-Man and the gargoyles, before turning a few civilians to stone... permanently. The Grey Gargoyle is sent to the Vault, but Demona witnesses this investigates and kidnaps Warren who lures her as well as Coldsteel, Erichthonius and her Fu-Dog into the Green Goblin's trap.

The knights, investigating the mysterious message that sent Arthur to HYDRA island, show up in New Orleans and fight the Wendigo. Eventually, Natsilane takes it down. Hawkeye joins the Knights, and we see that Morgana and her new minions were watching the entire time.

!!The Scorpion Strikes
J. Jonah Jameson hires a Private Investigator, Mac Gargan, to trail Peter Parker. After he's spotted, they visit Miles Warren and hire him to transform Gargan into a superhero to take down and replace Spider-Man.

!!The Lizard, The Wizard, and the Fountain
Dr. Curtis Connors goes missing, and Spidey calls in a favor from the Knights. Griff, Left Bank, Namor, and Hawkeye investigate Curt's disappearance which leads them right into the middle of a magical showdown between Prospero and Calypso, who are grappling over the Fountain of Youth. Worse yet, Calypso has used voodoo to turn Dr. Connors back into the Lizard. Merlin arrives from Atlantis (by way of Avalon) and rescues the Knights from Kraven and Lizard, and Griff calls Spidey in as a reinforcement. Merlin, Prospero, and Calypso tussle over the Fountain with Merlin the eventual winner, while Spidey combines gene-cleanser with Fountain water to restore both Kraven and Lizard to humanity. The arc ends on a twist though, as when Merlin enters the chambers where the Fountain rests, there is a mysterious girl asleep at the bottom of the Fountain.

!!Iron Origins

!!The Trial
After nearly four months of being held in captivity, Goliath was granted a trial. With Margot as the prosecutor weeks of witness and testimony ended when Brendan Quarters testified for Goliath, which moved the court to allow Goliath to speak. Goliath was brought before the court in chains when Demona and her clan, including Angela's clone, Cordelia attacked, meaning to kill him along with everyone in the courtroom. Her plan foiled, Goliath saved everyone's life before surrendering himself to the mercy of the court. He was found to be a sentient being and released where he reunited with his clan after a long absence.

!!The Pyramid of Kawilahpukuh
Directly connected to the Skull of Ah Pukuh arc that is still ongoing. Demona is having Nightstone Unlimited break down a pyramid in the Mayan Clan's territory, to be shipped to New York, and is tired of the Mayan Gargoyle's interference. She calls in a favor from HYDRA who send Reichsadler and Reaper down to join Demona and Cordelia in Guatemala to finish the Mayan Gargoyles off once and for all. Fortunately, help arrives for Zafiro's clan receives help in the form of several Knights of New Camelot: Griff, Beth Maza, Rory Dugan and his Beast, and Doc Sweet. They're able to fend off an attack by the two clones, but Reichsadler escapes with Obsidiana's pendant, shifting everyone's priorities towards catching the HYDRA clone...Leaving Kawilahpukuh to be plundered by Demona...

!!Critical Mass
A particularly huge story that begins when Norman Osborn murders a Daily Bugle reporter named Terri Kidder. As the Bugle and the police investigate, Sally Avril dumps Harry Osborn who then overdoses on drugs and is rushed to the hospital where he is comatose. Norman Osborn confronts his wife, Emily, over her Illuminati membership and the domestic dispute ends with the Green Goblin destroying the apartment building with Emily inside.

Exposed and hunted as the Green Goblin, he goes underground for a week emerging again to break every criminal and supervillain out of Riker's Island. The battle goes badly for Spider-Man, the Manhattan Clan, and the newly revealed to the world Iron Man and New York City is in a fit of panic for a week as the Green Goblin allies with Dr. Octopus and the Sinister Six to fulfill a master plan to cut the city off from the rest of the world and detonate a large scale EMP. As King Arthur and his Knights arrive, along with the Redemption Squad, Macbeth makes a failed assassination attempt on Dominique Destine and every hero carrying an Os Berry (along with Demona) are abducted by the Green Goblin's forces and held captive where he plans a mass execution to prelude his EMP.

Goliath, Spider-Man, Sir Griff, Dingo, Matrix, Hudson, Iron Man, Coldstone and Coldfire are forced to ally with Clan Nightstone and they track the Green Goblin to Madison Square Garden where they defeat the Goblin's forces, although many of them (including the Goblin escape), Hunter and Dingo finally kiss, and Demona allies with her enemies to foil the Goblin's plans. After Demona and Clan Nightstone disappear into the night, Iron Man invites the heroes out for victory shawarma.

!!The Night Gwen Stacy Died
The following day after having his plans foiled, the Green Goblin struck again, and kidnapped Gwen Stacy before Peter could propose to her. The Goblin took her to the Brooklyn Bridge to draw Spider-Man into a trap. In the resulting battle, Gwen was killed. Spider-Man vowed vengeance and began tracking the Goblin. Nashville found out, told the Manhattan Clan and Elisa, who fanned out to try to stop him from making a huge mistake. Spider-Man found the Goblin in an abandoned refinery where the two battled one last time. Spidey nearly killed the Goblin but stopped himself, vowing to see him in prison instead. However, in a twist of fate, the Goblin was killed on the blade of his own glider and impaled through the heart.

Spider-Man fled the scene and afterward the body of Norman Osborn was found by Elisa Maza. Jean De Wolff declared Spider-Man a supervillain in the aftermath, and Os Corp was divided up and sold, with Nightstone Unlimited getting the biggest piece. Emily Osborn was revealed to be alive, abandoning her old life and going underground into the Illuminati for good. At Gwen's funeral, Peter apologized to Gwen's headstone for never telling her he was Spider-Man. Afterwards, he was confronted by Elisa Maza who asked him what happened in that refinery, he told her the truth and she chose to believe him.

!!Wheels within Wheels
Reichsadler arranges for an attack on the 2012 London Olympics, but it's really a ploy to draw the Knights out so that they can be scanned with a stolen New Olympian device that scans each knight for a listing of his powers and weaknesses. Everyone is scanned except for Natsilane and Beth. A week later, at Nick's Bachelor Party, Reichsadler put's this information to use, capturing Rory's father. The male Knights immediately depart for Ireland to rescue him, and are quickly greeted by the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, the result of the genius of Howard Stark and Halcyon Renard. Nick Fury reveals to Rory his connection to his family, through his old war buddy and Rory's grandfather, Dum Dum Dugan. The Knight's rescue Mr. Dugan, and take him back to New Camelot for safe keeping...But things are not what they seem, as Reichsadler and Baron Strucker reveal that they still have Mr. Dugan...Strapped to a New Olympian device that allows someone else's biometrics to read as his if placed under an advanced scanner like the Zeta Tubes, The Master Matrix, or an Osberry. The Chameleon has infiltrated New Camelot.

!!The Weird Macbeth
The Weird Sisters begin meddling again as fate begins sowing its seeds for Erichthonius. Meanwhile, Shakespeare In the Park's production of As You Like It is about to come to a conclusion when Demona makes her way to the play in an attempt to kidnap Macbeth and is spotted and pursued by the Manhattan Clan. As the play is about to begin, the Weird Sisters appear on stage and slowly entrap people one by one within the play as our heroes, and a couple of villains end up trapped within their own private production of William Shakespeare's Macbeth. Macbeth plays himself, Goliath and Elisa play Macduff and Lady Macduff, Peter Parker as Banquo, Mary Jane as Seyton, and of course Demona as Lady Macbeth among other characters.

As the play proceeds, Erichthonius and Cordelia attack a charity gala in Bryant Park being hosted by John Castaway where Erichthonius murders Mayor Waters. Once the play concludes, Demona makes a fast escape where it is clear that the incident had a profound affect on her. The next day, Macbeth and Mary Jane meet for coffee where he reveals to her who he really is and the two part as friends.

!!The Hunter's Quarry
At first, Demona is pleased by Erichthonius's actions because humans in every country where gargoyle clans dwell are rioting, and lashing out in fear. Even forcing the Mayan Clan into a deeper part of the Green, where humans cannot reach. Unaware, or willfully ignorant, Demona refuses to notice that backlashes are against /anything/ pro-gargoyle. Cyberbiotics, Xanatos Enterprises, and Gateway Dynamics are all targeted by vandals because of their habit of giving to pro-gargoyle charities. As well as Nightstone Unlimited (Under Thailog's tenure, Demona does not give to charity) After an attack on Demona's Gramercy Park Mansion by the Redemption, Coldsteel finally convinces Demona that her boytoy has become a liability. Demona makes plans...While at the same time, in London, a group of skinheads sneak into Knight's Spur and get away with smashing Lunette's Ex-Boyfriend Falcor, before the RGDT manages to stop them.

!!Falcor's Wind Ceremony
Lunette, Amp, Gnash, and Lexington return to London for Falcor's wind ceremony...But the clan leaders are all mysteriously missing all over the world.

!!The Trial of Erichthonius
The Redemption Squad captures Erichthonius and hands him over to Griff, who takes custody of him in the name of the Gargoyle Nation. He then Zeta's to New Camelot, where the Clan Leaders of the World have secretly gathered. Erichthonius must face a tribunal of the GN's Clan Leaders: Goliath, Coco (Newly Installed Leader of the London Clan), Kai, The Praetor, Zafiro, Gabriel, Griff (leader of New Camelot's breakaway Clan) and the Xanadu Leader (who is still secretly allied to Demona). Unbeknownst to any of them, Demona secretly planted a tracking device under Ericthonius's skin, and is arranging to have HYDRA attack the trial and abscond with Erichthonius...Thinking that the world can chase HYDRA for a while, while they secretly return Erichthonius to her.

Meanwhile, Brooklyn arranges with Mary and Finella, the co-owners of WVRN News, to spirit away Travis Marshall to cover the events of the trial for the world. Erichthonius is tried before the Tribunal (and the world) and found not only guilty, but that his punishment must be death (to the sorrow of the clan leaders, as before now, Banishment was the highest form of gargoyle punishment, but no other option is viable). Erichthonius, for his last request, asks to speak to Demona one last time only for Demona to ignore him and threaten Goliath with death when the call is made. HYDRA attacks New Camelot, and Erichthonius is killed taking a shot meant for his former leader. His body is taken to New Olympus for the Wind Ceremony, and this act of poetic justice by the hands of Fate, draws the Korean Clan out of hiding, and they seek to join the Gargoyle Nation.

Meanwhile, in Scotland, word of Falcor's death has reached the Loch Ness Clan, whose leader chooses to make a journey south, to seek out the London Clan, and make contact at last. Reichsadler makes his way to Manhattan, having offered his life as forfeit to Demona, but Demona spares his life in exchange for a favor to come later.

!!The Jewel Cracks

After a break in at Shrewstone Inc, Nerissa was released from her jeweled prison, and while running on magical fumes to maintain her youth, she began working for Prospero as an assistant while he set her up with an identity and taught her about this universe's Earth. Eventually she started a romantic relationship with a woman she met in a pub named Cassandra.

!!Back In Black
Shortly after the death of Gwen Stacy, Spider-Man donned a new black costume and became a little more aggressive in his pursuit of criminals and supervillains. Meanwhile, the Black Cat breaks into Tombstone's headquarters and steals a jump drive supposedly containing specs for the Ultra-Pack. As she escapes, she is pursued by the Enforcers and runs into Spider-Man before being cornered by the Enforcers and Cordelia, who has been loaned out as extra muscle to the Big Man. Cordelia and the Enforcers chase Spidey and Black Cat into the sewers where they come upon the stoned Thug being guarded by Malibu. Black Cat has a chance to escape but helps Spidey protect Thug and when the rest of the Labyrinth Clan arrives, Cordelia and the Enforcers retreat. Spidey and Black Cat make it back to the surface, kiss, and Cat seems to promise to turn over a new leaf, the two of them then break into a hotel suite, unmask and get intimate. After Spidey falls asleep, Black Cat collects a DNA sample from him and the jump drive and leaves, meeting up with Tombstone, Glasses and Anton Sevarius at Nightstone Unlimited's new labs where we learn that the entire evening was planned to allow Cat to get close to Spidey and bring the DNA sample. The jump drive contained passwords to bank accounts so she could collect her payment, and then... once Demona stepped out of the shadows, Black Cat recognized her voice as the one she delivered the Skull of Ah Pukuh to back in January, and left before any of them could register the fear and especially the regret. The next day, as Felicia Hardy, she visited Peter Parker at Aunt May's house and the two them agreed to give a relationship a try.

!!Griff's Journey
After the assault on New Camelot, Griff feels that he must confront Reichsadler once and for all. But not knowing where the HYDRA clone is holed up, he chooses to let Avalon guide his journey. Taking Left Bank with him, his first stop is France, where he comes into possession of the magic sword Durenal. Following that, he finds himself in Manhattan just in time to save Jill Stacy from Elizabeth Bathory. They escape to Avalon where Princess Katherine and Tom make here a second Guardian. They then find themselves in Prague, where Griff teams up with Max Loew and the Golem to fight Tomas Brod and the Hobgoblin. Max has begun to lose control of the Golem, and has started using Renard's spell to become the Golem...They succeed in dispatching Brod, but Hobgoblin get's away...And has begun franchising Super-Villains. From Prague; Griff, Left Bank, and Jill find themselves in Loch Ness, where they are joined by Jill's father (The head of the Royal Gargoyle Defense Team) and Vinnie Grigori to put a halt to Morgana's cloning operations in the Loch. Jill makes Vinnie the third Guardian, and they depart with him to Avalon. Which then takes them to Florida where they discover Merlin's absence.

!!Back In Red & Blue
Since "Back In Black," Peter has moved out of Aunt May's house and into an apartment he shares with Harry Osborn after having a fight with her over Felicia Hardy. After a fight in a department store with the Vulture, Mary Jane Watson confronted Peter over her knowledge that he is Spider-Man. After an uneasy discussion where the two of them revealed things about themselves the other never knew, their friendship strengthened.

Meanwhile, the Big Man's newest Enforcer, Kaine, a deformed clone of Spider-Man attacked his "father" while on patrol with Black Cat. Afterwards, it was revealed that Kaine's awakening would not have been possible without Black Cat stealing a DNA sample from Peter after their first night together. Spider-Man ended the relationship with Black Cat right then and there. In an effort to make things right with him, Black Cat broke into the old Os Corp building (now owned by Nightstone Unlimited) to steal back any DNA samples they had left... after that, she broke into Nightstone's corporate headquarters and attempted to steal back the Skull of Ah Pukuh from Demona's vault when she was confronted by Demona herself. Black Cat managed to escape with a jump drive and make it back to her apartment, but as soon as she plugged it into her computer, Demona managed to track her down and attack Black Cat, brutally beating her into a coma... the jump drive itself falling into an air conditioning vent. Peter visited the comatose Felicia, sorry over what had happened and then, after a talk with Mary Jane about Felicia and Gwen's death, he re-donned his old red and blue costume.

!!Transitions
After more than a year of preparation, Demona's plans began to culminate when December 21st, 2012 arrived. As all of the pieces fell into place, Thailog emerged from hiding and got into a brief skirmish with Cordelia. Hoping to use Elisa Maza's blood to activate her doomsday spell on humanity, Demona sent Cordelia and Coldsteel to abduct her from her loft, and returned to Nightstone Unlimited with Beth Maza and Mary Jane Watson (who was there to meet up with Lunette to talk theater and acting). As this happened, Spider-Man found and brought the jump drive Black Cat stole from Demona to the Eyrie Building where they accessed New Camelot's Master Matrix and decrypted it, uncovering Demona's plans to amplify the powers of the Skull of Ah Pukuh with the final page from the Grimorum Arcanorum. When the sun finally set on the 21st, on Elisa's call, both the Gargoyles Taskforce and Supervillain Taskforce converged upon the Nightstone Unlimited skyscraper in time for Reichsadler and HYDRA to turn on Demona once they realized she had the means to destroy all of humanity, not just all the humans in the New York area. The Manhattan Clan, Sir Griff, King Arthur, Jade and Turquesa soon arrived, batting their way through hundreds of Thailog Shock Troops, Talon Commandos, and HYDRA soldiers. Brooklyn and Fu-Dog battled their way into the main chamber at the apex of the pyramid first where Brooklyn's Fu-Dog slayed Demona's before Goliath and Elisa finally fought their way in. Upon their arrival, Demona slammed Beth Maza down on to the altar and stabbed her with the ceremonial dagger, spilling her blood onto the skull... it's power pulsed and began to spread and many humans in Manhattan collapsed ill, some died. With victory in her hands, Cordelia went into a trance and destroyed the skull... causing the skull and pyramid's power to feedback in on itself. On her way out, Demona shot Cordelia square in the chest, calling her a disgrace (and finally ending what was Clan Nightstone) before grabbing Mary Jane as a hostage on her way out, and dropping down to the streets... where she was saved by Spider-Man and the two shared their first kiss. Angela also arrived in time to rescue the gravely wounded Cordelia. With the skull destroyed, the pyramid began tearing itself apart, and Coldsteel slammed Beth neck first into a wall, killing her. Staying with his wife as the pyramid collapsed, Natsilane asked Goliath to take care of their kids and Goliath and Elisa escaped the pyramid's collapse, and followed Demona several blocks south before taking her down and finally capturing her. With the power of the pyramid still pulsing, it threatened to destroy all of Manhattan once it exploded... but the day was saved with the timely arrival of Alexander Fox Xanatos, who used all of what Puck taught him to contain the magic of the pyramid, whereby only the Nightstone Unlimited skyscraper was destroyed. The surviving HYDRAs were captured by the police as well as Victoria Hand (charged with aiding and abetting in kidnapping, murder and terrorism) and Demona herself, brought back by Elisa in chains. The gargoyles returned back to the castle with Elisa to mourn the loss of Beth and Nick, while Thailog revealed to Brentwood that when he created Cordelia, he programmed a code word into her brain to force her to obey him and he was the reason she destroyed the skull when she did. Cordelia herself was brought by Angela to Dr. Sato to save her life, before being turned over to the authorities. Demona herself was shackled and loaded into an armored police van for delivery to the Vault, but the police in charge of the van delivered her to Khulan Borjigin aka Jade, the new leader of the People for Interspecies Triumph (who have infiltrated the city's government and infrastructure), who released Demona and promised themselves to serve her cause... and renamed themselves The Demon's Talon.

Demona made off with the Lemurian Arcana (an Atlantean spell book), Hobgoblin made off with the Coward's Sword, the Mandarin bought the Djinn ring, all the while a silent auction was going on for a large Medusa bomb. Just as the Redemption Squad was about to raid the auction, Prospero suddenly started auctioning off captured Children of Oberon.

!!Intermission
In the real world, formspring announced they were shutting down and the previous arc was set to be a cliffhanger while they prepared to move to a new home. When the shut down never happened, the players proceeded with small stories such as Peter and Mary Jane seeing Creator/AlanCumming's Macbeth on Broadway; Demona having a secret meeting with Angela in Elisa's loft, not to mention Angela becoming more aggressive and violent when dealing with the street thugs.

!!Scorpion II
After several weeks, Dr. Octopus and his Sinister Seven completed the upgrades on the Labyrinth's security, at the same time a Cyberbiotics database was discovered containing a means to mass produce experimental super soldiers.

!!The Goblin Prince
While on patrol with Goliath, Angela suggests that maybe it would be best for Brooklyn to step down as second-in-command in favor of a younger gargoyle, a thought which Goliath ponders. Around this time, Harry Osborn finds out that Peter Parker is actually Spider-Man and dons his stashed Green Goblin gear and then breaks into Nightstone Unlimited to steal some left over caches of Globulin Green, becoming the new Green Goblin. He finds Mark Allan and ropes him back into supervillainy with a promise to find a cure for his condition, and then wires the apartment that shares with Peter to blow up, hospitalizing Mary Jane. Recognizing the Goblin's explosives, Peter visits Felicia Hardy at Riker's Island (who is doing well in physical therapy) and discovers that Roderick Kingsley is still in custody (or so the world thinks), and tracks down the new Goblin at the refinery where Norman Osborn died, and quickly deduces that it is Harry. Harry vows vengeance and when he has the upper-hand, Harry reveals that he had abducted Aunt May and Mary Jane and locked them in separate rooms across the city, both wired to explode and Spider-Man can only save one of them. But Spidey calls in backup from New Camelot, and Hawkeye rescues Mary Jane while Spidey saves Aunt May. Inspired by Spidey's use of backup, Harry and Molten Man decide to get their own team (allying himself with the Big Man and gaining Cordelia and Kaine as allies). Later that evening, Goliath, Hudson, and Brooklyn meet to discuss the issue of second-in-command. Although reluctant to step down, all agree it might be for the best, and decide Angela should be the new second. Having spied on the meeting, Angela is wickedly delighted, as is Demona.

!!Viper's Venom
In eastern Europe, Viper acquires a nuclear bomb as well as an attempt on her life by S.H.I.E.L.D.. In order to keep both S.H.I.E.L.D. and Reichsadler on a leash, she kidnaps a school bus full of Austrian school children, strapping explosive vests onto them before sending the nuke and all of HYDRA's remaining forces to destroy New York City. On the way there, Reichsadler contacts Griff at New Camelot offering to turn himself over to the Gargoyle Nation for trial if New Camelot and their allies defeat Viper. HYDRA's man in Manhattan, Hammerhead leaks word to his former boss, now enemy, Tombstone about the bomb and Tombstone contacts the Illuminati, who arrange to have it dealt with. The Manhattan Clan again allies with the Knights of Camelot to remain vigilant and watch the waters for HYDRA's arrival, while the US navy and War Machine attempt to defeat HYDRA at sea. Viper arrives in Manhattan ahead of her forces to make final preparations, and that night the HYDRA armada lands, when Reichsadler betrays Viper and orders his vessel to fire on Viper's and those that don't stand with her to stand down. Black Widow abandons the Knights in the battle to be pursued by Clint to Viper's nest where he loses sight of Widow but is captured.

As Viper attempts to arm the bomb at Federal Hall, Reichsadler attacks her, and nearly defeats her before she resorts to trickery, but the intervention of Black Widow, Goliath and Griff defeat Viper, and stop the bomb. Reichsadler turns himself over to Griff while Widow frees Hawkeye before fleeing; King Arthur and Hawkeye release Viper's hostages and the police capture Viper, and imprison her in the Vault (at Secretary of Defense, Dell Rusk's insistence).

Peter Parker returns home to discover Gwen Stacy sitting on his couch. Knowing that this cannot be the real Gwen Stacy, he throws her out of his home, and "Gwen" gives Jill Stacy a scare later when she attempts to return home. "Gwen" turns out to be a clone created by Harry Osborn in an attempt to be reunited with his "one true love." He then releases a clone of Norman Osborn from a pod before suiting up as the Green Goblin and, alongside Cordelia and Molten Man, capturing Spider-Man while Kaine captures Mary Jane and the Gwen clone. Kaine explains to "Norman" that he is not the original and to choose his own identity, not what others would have him be, advice that Cordelia also listens to and heeds.

Kaine releases "Gwen" and Mary Jane as Spidey takes Harry to Ravencroft for help. Molten Man returns home only to be checked into Ravencroft as well by Liz who transfers there to work as a nurse. The "Gwen" clone takes the name of Sarah after realizing she has six months to live and wants to make the most of the time she has.

!!New Scars
At Angela's suggestion, half of the eggs in the rookery are sent with Broadway via skiff to Avalon. Upon arriving on the island, he and Gabriel meet and due to the differences in time, the island still has not recovered from Mab's reign... something Angela should have known. As Broadway visits Avalon, Demona uses the Lemurian Arcana to forge a talisman that, once placed into body of water, will lure any skiff leaving Avalon to it. Once Broadway leaves, he finds himself at Demona's dockside warehouse where he is captured by her and the Demon's Talon (unmasking Khulan as their leader). Once visited by Angela in his cell, he realizes what's been going on and blames himself.

Demona quickly moves the eggs to her townhouse, and into a rookery she's prepared there. After this, Elisa's worrying about Angela's recent behavior leads her to wonder about the influence her friendship with Khulan may have had, and remembering her early suspicions, she begins investigating the woman and her background, and uncovers nothing but rumors and a closed file on her father (who is rumored to be a terrorist). When she investigates "Lacunae Rahdon's" past, she discovers via a photograph evidence that Khulan is dangerous. She warns Goliath, who tells Angela (who reacts with faux shock) and as they patrol, she leads Goliath into an ambush where he is captured by operatives of the Demon's Talon... who, at Angela's insistence, wound her with a Quarryman hammer so she may easily blame them for Goliath's abduction. She calls for help, and Khulan forgotten, Elisa with the clan focuses on rescuing Goliath from the Quarrymen.

As Goliath comes to, Demona begins torturing him with hi-tech devices provided by Khulan. Angela assumes leadership of the clan and vows to find Goliath. The next evening, growing bored of the hi-tech devices, Demona performs a more physical and mental torture, but still Goliath doesn't break; as Angela and the clan raid Quarrymen buildings. The next day, Elisa confronts Fleance and demands to know where Goliath is, but Fleance denies having him, and insinuates the existence of a pro-gargoyle cult that controls both the People for Interspecies Triumph and the Friends of Humanity. After comparing notes with Jill Stacy of the Order of the Guardian (and thanks to Vinnie's own investigating), Elisa determines that it was Khulan who took Goliath.

That night, Angela orders the clan to watch for Quarrymen activity before a midnight raid on the brownstore to kidnap the infant Jackson Castaway; the clan protests but Angela's decision is final. As the clan flies off, Elisa calls to warn Angela about Khulan... and Angela already plots against Elisa. But before Elisa can leave her apartment, she is confronted by Cordelia who tells Elisa that Demona has been controlling Angela for months, and that she wants to help save her and defeat Demona. Patching the Manhattan Clan into a call, they plot a means of defeating Demona, and Cordelia pretends to capture Elisa to bring as tribute to Demona, and begs for a chance to rejoin her. Elisa tries to take Demona out, but is spotted... the rest of the clan bursts in and battles Demona's army, who while skilled are outmatched. Gnash and Fu-Dog free Broadway and Boudicca and they immediately begin tracking the eggs. Elisa frees Goliath, and as Demona and Angela are nearly cornered, Cordelia rips the ruby choker from Angela's neck, freeing her. Angela attacks Demona with all her anger and guilt before throwing her into the East River.

The gargoyles and Cordelia immediately head for Demona's townhouse to recover the eggs, but arrive only after Demona and her Talon have already come and gone, removing all of Demona's weapons, magical tomes and talismans and ONE egg. Broadway and Angela have an awkward and painful reunion as the gargoyles relocate back to the castle and return the eggs to the rookery. A guilt-stricken Angela retreats to the library where she confesses to Brooklyn that she wasn't being controlled, but that she had all of Demona's memories and her own darkest instincts had been brought to the forefront... Brooklyn then tells her that in the future, Demona will help save the world and find true redemption. A struck Angela asks why he's telling her this, and he says it's so she can learn to forgive herself. In uptown Manhattan, Demona moves into Khulan's mansion, and although she has an egg and enough servants to satisfy her every need, she thinks about Angela and what she's done and cries.

As this happens, Thailog plots his master plan to sell immortality to the world, and Hacker and Tamora recruit Sarah Browne into the Illuminati to keep the Quarrymen on the course they've set for them. Cordelia is welcomed by Delilah and Talon into the Labyrinth.

!!Old Wounds

We learn that, since Natsilane and Beth Maza died on December 21st in the Temple of Ah Pukuh, the God of Unnatural Death took their souls captive in the realm of Xibalba rather than allowed them to pass on. As an hour on Earth is 24 in Xibalba, the two Knights were tormented there, not realizing they were dead, for centuries. They unconsciously called out to the other Knights through their dreams, so they headed to Guatemala to investigate, meeting up with the Mayan Clan. Obsidiana turned out to be familiar with Xibalba, having ventured there as a child, and guided Arthur and the Knights to find Nick/Beth. Ah Pukuh and his Lords of Death minions waylaid them, forcing them all to relive their personal regrets and sins.

But Griff, having made personal peace with his own past and - as a gargoyle - immune to Third Race magic by Oberon's post-Mab War decrees, managed to break free and broke out the other Knights as well, eventually finding Nick/Beth and freeing them too. But Ah Pukuh revealed his secret weapon - the spirit of the Child of Mab Huitzilopochtli, who was killed by Nick on Avalon and granted a chance at revival if he destroyed the Knights. As a Spirit he was immune to their attacks, but Nick/Beth could fight him off, and were soon joined by the surprise cavalry of ALL the deceased Knights of the Round Table, who had been summoned to aid Arthur by Merlin.

They fought off the Hummingbird, took Nick/Beth's Spirits to join them in the afterlife, and allowed the living Knights to escape... but not before giving Beth's Spirit a brief, last chance to see her children, and thank her sister for taking care of them.

!!Intermission II

Angela starts seeking therapy with Dr. Kafka while Broadway spends his night guarding the eggs in penance until Brooklyn forces him out on patrol. As they glide near the newly rebuilt Nightstone Unlimited skyscraper, they have an encounter with Tamora, who turns out to have had a romantic history with Brooklyn during his time dancing before she joined the Illuminati. After Brooklyn does not hesitate to talk to Katana about this, Broadway and Angela have a heart-to-heart conversation and agree to work through this. Later, Xanatos arranges a vacation for them both up at Xanadu.

Xanatos also arranges Felicia Hardy's freedom and brings her back into his service to serve as a thief for him against his competitors. Meanwhile, Peter Parker and Mary Jane try to find a way for Sarah Stacy to live, and determined that she won't die in six months, Peter calls Dr. Curt Connors.

!!The Moon Knight Rises
Prospero was approached by Isis at Cleopatra's needle, who offered him the Scroll of Thoth in exchange for aiding in resurrecting her husband, Osiris. Isis had spent over a year gathering the various talismans containing Osiris' essence, including the Left Hand of Osiris formerly worn by Baron Strucker, all she required was a mortal sorcerer to invoke Osiris' power. While Prospero intended to halt his daughter's continuing deterioration by using the scroll to create an Avatar of Khonshu... the Egyptian God of Time and the Moon.

Meanwhile, Marc Spector, S.H.I.E.L.D's newest deputy director, conceived a plan to infiltrate New Camelot. All he needed was an opportunity for one of their agents to prove their heroism in front of Arthur. When he learned that Prospero went to Tombstone looking for a volunteer to become Khonshu's Avatar, and the latest super-villain on the Big Man's payroll, it's seemed like just the opportunity Agent Spector had been looking for.

While all this is happening, Prospero nears the end of his patience with his latest apprentice, Quentin Beck AKA Mysterio. Prospero had been hired by Doctor Octopus (after much convincing) to take on Mysterio as pupil. But Mysterio's utter ineptitude at true sorcery, and his tendency to accidentally set fire to Prospero's library, pushed the ageless sorcerer to his limit. After speaking with Doc Ock, Prospero (after much convincing) agrees to give Mysterio one last chance to redeem himself... by assisting in the Avatar ceremony.

Everything came to a head at the next full moon, when Prospero, Dr. Octopus, Mysterio and Shocker gathered for the ritual. Prospero succeeded in transforming Shocker into the Avatar of Khonshu just before either Arthur and his knights or Agents Spector and Coulson can intervene. Dubbing himself Time-Shock, NYC's newest supervillain used his new time manipulation powers to wreck havoc on our heroes. Fortunately, Agent Spector was able to use the Scroll of Thoth and his own eidetic memory to replicate Prospero's spell, transforming himself into the new Avatar of Khonshu.

Unfortunately for Agent Spector, Mysterio inadvertently destroyed the Scroll of Thoth ensuing battle, leaving Marc and Khonshu no way to separate themselves. After Prospero, Octavius and Beck have made their escape, an impressed Arthur wastes little time in dubbing his new ally Sir Marc Spector... The Moon Knight.

Meanwhile, a thousand miles away in the shadow of the Great Pyramid... Osiris lived again.

!!Homecoming

!!Murder on the Oriental Zeta Tube
As the summer production of Shakespeare In the Park comes to an end, Lunette finally performs on stage. While she receives bad reviews she is determined to keep acting. But after her debut performances, Goliath leaves for New Camelot with Delilah, and Cordelia as the Labyrinth Clan has finally decided to join the Gargoyle Nation, and Cordelia is to stand as a witness in Reichsadler's trial. But before leaving, Cordelia is visited by Thailog who speaks his control code which sends her into a trance and he gives her instructions.

Upon arriving, the clones are greeted with suspicion and hostility from the likes of Praetor, the leader of the Pukhan Clan, and the leader of the Xanadu Clan... who is murdered by an unknown assailant later that night. Goliath and Griff immediately mount an investigation which quickly rules out Cordelia, Reichsadler and other suspects. Eventually, the murderer is revealed to be Proteus who snuck into New Camelot weeks ago. Proteus is quickly captured, and in the aftermath it is revealed that he was working with Periclymenus who has recently been inducted into the Illuminati along with the second in command of the Xanadu Clan who was inducted by the Mandarin. Now all the known clans are part of the Gargoyle Nation, and will soon be under the Society's influence.

Shortly after, the Labyrinth Clan is officially inducted into the Gargoyle Nation and Reichsadler is put on trial, showing no remorse for his actions. Cordelia speaks on his behalf, but he is sentenced to life in prison. Afterwards, thanks to a deal made by New Camelot and the Redemption Squad, Reichsadler is recruited into the team, to be judged by Yama as his warden.

Goliath, Delilah and Cordelia return to Manhattan and Cordelia, seemingly in grief over not being able to see Reichsadler one more time flies off, but she falls back into her trance and heads to Nightstone Unlimited where she gives Thailog a capsule with several robotic mosquitoes she used to steal DNA samples from each clan leader. He sends her back to the Labyrinth with no memory of him or their dealings.

!!Intermission III
The next several months were relatively quiet, Sarah Stacy, Mary Jane, and Peter Parker become friends, with Sarah making romantic plays on Peter... ultimately resulting in Mary Jane ending their relationship as Peter begins to see Sarah as a substitute for Gwen, and MJ won't play second fiddle. Around this time, Felicia Hardy is released from prison where she is given experimental enhancements from Xanatos in order to function as the Black Cat again, and sent to be Xanatos's spy inside Nightstone Unlimited, posing as a maintenance worker... as word of Thailog's latest project has 'intrigued' him, meanwhile the audience learns that Petros Xanatos is dying. Thailog purchases the property surrounding Into the Mystic in order to keep an eye on the London Clan.

Viper escapes from prison after being freed by several of her loyal troops, whom Sevarius upgraded into the Serpent Squad, and takes refuge at Khulan Borjigin's home where, much to Demona's lack of interest (as she spirited the egg and herself off to Paris), the Demon's Talon is folded into a resurgent HYDRA.

Meanwhile, Morgana le Fay completes her new army, lays siege to Avalon, defeats and imprisons Titania, claiming the island as her kingdom.

!!Desecration
Dracula contacts to Demona, offering her a small stash of Atlantean crystals in exchange for creating a Praying Vampire that would make Vlad and his vampire spawn nearly invincible. Demona completes the Praying Vampire in a blasphemous ritual involving the massacre of an entire Franciscan monastery. Demona has also secretly implanted a small explosive device in the statue to be used once Vlad has outlived his usefulness to her.

With Bathory, Baron Blood and a reluctant Morbius at his side, Vlad sets his sights on the conquest of Britain. Intending to use the Praying Vampire to transform it into a homeland for his Vampire Nation. Unknown to Vlad, Demona has already contacted Old Pog of the London Clan, warning him of the Vampire Lord's plot and providing him with the detonator for the bomb hidden in the Praying Vampire.

Things come to ahead as the London Clan confronts the Vampire Nation at Carfax Abby. Old Pog and Vlad face off, the veteran gargoyle warrior stabbing the Lord of Vampires through the heart, seemingly to no effect. Only when Vlad attempts to turn Pog, does the London Gargoyle reveal his trump card, the detonator provided by Demona (who was once a friend). As the Praying Vampire is blown to pieces, both gargoyle and vampire begin crumbling into dust.

In the wake of Vlad's true death, Bathory and the remaining vampires flee swearing vengeance and the London Clan return home to prepare Pog's Wind Ceremony. Later, in the now abandoned and desecrated Carfax Abby, the remains of the Praying Vampire begin to regenerate.

!!Recruited
As July Fourth came to a close, Axel Asher stepped into a Zeta Tube...and so did Axel Asher. The combination of the “same” person on two worlds, connected by Thomeheb's Gateway, traveling at the same time had unexpected effects...namely, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ggu7lSMXOnM these]]. A new reality, fused between the [=SpecGargsVerse=] and Earth-16 was created, removing most alien characters from being present and merging disparate points in time from the various series. Some who had died were alive again, and others who hadn't died yet suddenly already were.

Three weeks later, an Axel Asher, an amalgam of both of the originals, emerged from a Zeta Tube and was discovered by Captain Atom. Not long after that, Montmarte was dropped off by the Phoenix, the only member of his clan still extant in this amalgamated universe. Eventually, the two of them came together along with Doctor Stephen Strange Sr. and Doctor Fate. The Mortal and Immortal Sorcerers Supreme came to an accord and combined forces, releasing Zatara from his duties and becoming Doctor Strangefate, another composite being with memories of multiple realities. As all this was going on, Alanna and Adam Strange returned from space with dire news; an invasion had taken place, devastating Rann. The invaders were known only...as the Space-Spawn.

After Axel pointed out the differences in time as well as the disappearances to members of the League and the Team (problems which had to be continually reminded about as most people's minds tended to forget), allies were gathered to deal with the problem...namely, that this new universe was unstable and likely to collapse soon. Indeed, the Light were already planning for such an inevitability with their Partner, Darkseid. As the Light pursued the course of maintaining the status quo, the League and Axel's group began to search for the cause of these problems.

While these major concerns were being dealt with, “life as usual” continued on for this merged reality. King Arthur and Griff continued their search for Merlin and new allies, coming into contact with the former Knight Jason Blood, still bound to Merlin's demonic half-brother Etrigan. Klarion alongside the Light's Enforcers, consisting of the just-recovered Deathstroke, Talia, Silver Sable, and Coldsteel enhanced with a Father Box, attacked Blood's home, stealing the Arcana Myrddin from him as well as forcing Etrigan to emerge. While King Arthur and Sir Griff managed to stop the Avatar's rampage, Klarion and the Enforcers all escaped.

A few weeks later, Batman and Batgirl, alongside Angela, Broadway, Lexington, and Guardian, broke up a meeting between Demona, now part of the Light, and Cordelia with Drs. Sevarius and Crane who had developed a new “Fear Plague.” Unfortunately, all escaped in the chaos caused when The Phantasm appeared and blanketed everyone with the Fear Plague via her smoke. At the same time, the new Sinister Sixteen were ordered to cause distractions in New York to keep both the League and the rest of the Manhattan Clan occupied. If the gargoyles had not been immune to the Fear Plague (though they remained carriers until the carrier virus was eliminated), the humans that had been exposed would not have been taken to get help in time back at Wayne Manor...where a “guest” awaited a word with Bruce Wayne...Nerissa.

Nerissa had been a witness to the alteration of reality around her yet was untouched by it herself thanks to not being native. She stood with the group looking to save reality, ostensibly seeking to help, but while the rest continued their attempts to restore things to the way they were, Nerissa instead went on a quest for the Hearts affected by the amalgamation, supposedly to protect them from any further potential damage. She was accompanied by Zatanna and, eventually, the two met Firebrand, another universal outsider like Nerissa, saving him from a foolish attack upon a group of Quarrymen, and convinced him to aid them.

It had been discovered that the Gateways had somehow become resonant with one another – one in Central City, the other in Paris – and the warping between them was the cause of the universal merging. The warping energies were eventually moved to the Watchtower but at great cost...for The Light and their Partner had seen fit to revive Queen Mab, still alive in this new reality and made aware of her demise in the previous one, with the tome stolen from Jason Blood. Determined not to suffer the same fate, Queen Mab infiltrated the merged Gateway Room. Utilizing the warping effects to be in both cities simultaneously, she grew to immense size in both Central City and Paris and destroyed both cities with power equivalent to a nuclear device, killing Barry and Bart Allen along with millions of others as well as throwing Captain Atom forward into 2198.

Even the Watchtower would turn out not to be secure enough as the Enforcers of the Light invaded and took the station (and thus the warp) thanks to the merger of the Zeta Tube systems – Riddler discovered a backdoor through the Gateway Dynamics programming. However, Axel managed to save himself and the just-married Adam Strange by utilizing the warp itself to escape back to Earth. However now, not only were the Light's Enforcers in possession of the Watchtower, they were soon supplemented by the Sinister Sixteen, led by the returned Green Goblin.

The League and their allies, including Tony Stark of the Avengers, began to prepare for a final assault to retake the Watchtower as the Light began to withdraw to Apokolips. Demona, having already failed to convince Angela to come with her and be saved, chose this moment to betray the rest of the Light and use the stone by night spell from the Grimorum once again. Unfortunately, she was not prepared to deal with Darkseid, who quickly set fire to the skies overhead and released the other members of the Light. As it turned out, the others were also prepared for this betrayal. Queen Bee had enthralled Macbeth some time ago and, thanks to her pheromonal powers, the two immortals killed one another. It was also around this time that the universe began its final collapse and Nerissa discovered a strange island in the Caribbean Sea – an amalgam of Avalon and Brigadoon, the mystical isles from each world, and the location of the merged Hearts.

Zatanna's memories of the show W.I.T.C.H. were restored in the presence of the Hearts and she faced Nerissa before the former Guardian could absorb the two Hearts into her seal, eventually emerging triumphant thanks to a well-timed spell allowing for the return of Superboy and Miss Martian. In the meantime, the League, Team, and other allies began their assault, though the universal decay caused strange alterations to many of them. The Alpha Squad led the charge with a massive strike force of Cybots supplied by Halcyon Renard himself and space vehicles provided by Iron Man. The Beta Squad came through the Zeta Tubes after control was retaken by The Atom using a systems override. As the tide turned, it became clear that these two groups were merely distractions from the real attempt – Omega Squad, consisting of Tigress, Spider-Man (now officially a Team member, having admitted his secret identity to Aunt May), Broadway, Angela, Lexington, Batgirl, Axel Asher, Adam Strange, Montmarte, Brooklyn, Bronx, Fu-Dog, and Wolf, heading surreptitiously for the warp.

It was at this point that Queen Mab reappeared on the Watchtower, growing to a more significant size than when she had killed Bumblebee earlier. However, this time she was confronted by Strangefate. The combined powers of Nabu and Stephen Strange proved to be a match for the mad queen as the Green Goblin fled to confront Omega Squad and Boom Tubes opened throughout the Watchtower, disgorging a legion of Parademons. Still, the various "distractions" continued to fight on against the new opposition along with any remaining members of the Pumpkinheads, Thailog Shock Troops, Talon Commandos, the Sinister Sixteen, and the Light's Enforcers. Black Canary herself was so impressed by the actions of King Arthur and his Knights (now including the Shining and Black Knights) in the fight that she told the King to consider themselves all League, come what may.

The Goblin presented the corpses of Macbeth and Demona to Angela, causing some of Omega to split off to chase after him. In the end, Angela kept herself from killing Osborn in cold blood, but the cost was terrible – Goliath himself was slain as the Goblin escaped via Boom Tube. In the meantime, Dr. Strangefate managed to trap Queen Mab in a crystal prison after a lengthy magical battle that very nearly killed his mortal half. And finally, the rest of Omega Squad reached the warp...only to find it secured by a huge number of Parademons and the Joker himself. Joker immediately killed Artemis and went after the rest, looking forward to the ultimate cosmic joke of Oblivion.

In the end, the Phantasm saved the group, appearing out of nowhere and impaling the Joker upon her scythe. As Andrea Beaumont and the just-arrived Bruce Wayne looked at one another for a brief moment, Axel Asher, now committed to his role as “The Access,” jumped into the warp holding a magical item prepared in advance by Dr. Strangefate...the Ambre Jeune Perdu. Montmarte and Brooklyn each took the other's hand and managed to “summon” the Phoenix to surround the warp and The Access while Adam Strange activated a special program for the Zeta Tubes – all stations were activated by enhanced Zeta beams simultaneously. With the Phoenix covering time and the Zeta beams covering space, The Access drew the last remaining shard of the physical Gateways and split the Ambre Jeune Perdu in two, restoring the universes to their intended forms (though not without some problems remaining). In the last gasps of the merged reality, the Spectre makes its vengeance known to both The Green Goblin, consigning him back to the death he suffered, and Queen Mab, transforming her into an ant that is killed by a colony that considers her an invader.

On October 25th, in two re-separated universes, Demona awakens in her chateau, Barbara Gordon misses someone she can't recall, Lexington misses someone he CAN recall, Artemis Crock wakes up from a nightmare next to Wally West, and Elisa Maza celebrates an important anniversary alongside her beloved Goliath while the Batman searches for a now-missing Robin, the young Jason Todd...

* YearOutsideHourInside: Interestingly done...since everything takes place more or less in real time, when the characters go to Avalon, they spend a lot of time there. The sun rises there, and the gargoyles spend two weeks (from a real world perspective) in stone sleep. Spidey is there too, and when he get's back he ends up in trouble with Aunt May ''and'' Gwen due to it being almost a month later.
