mythological figures we'd like to see

[dpara]

From the giant monster class;
Cthulhu, the better Cloverfield Monster , uh Godzilla ..in case Harry ever goes to Japan.

The usual suspects Athena, Kali, Lucifer & Hades (sry no Loki I can't get over that stupid Marvel helmet, he's tainted XD).

Tiamat & Marduk to me Babylonian sounds pretty cool, with maybe remaining idols as story hooks.

In general I would to see more mystical/mythical places/(stupidly risky exploring) in the NN, the various hells/heavens, I guess any of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mythological_places would make me happy.

Peter Pan.. ..that came so out of left field... so I am gonna pick the tooth fairy ( I think she is winter XD .. or even Mab herself XD XD )

[Ms Duck]

in pre monthesitic abrahmaic religion the wg had a wife (Asherah, who if she showed up in the DF would be mother summer) and an arch enemy.. tehom/ tehob, the darkness upon the deep.

sooooooooooo whose up for a dragon the size of egypt?

[wizard nelson]

in most of the versions ive read, lancelot's dead as a doornail. Are you thinking of the wandering Jew?

and its just a total WAG.. but in the 'romantic' versions arthur is taken to avalon by his three sisters..one of whom is Mab.

Apollo.

[wizard nelson]

Apollo.

thats likely the erlking, hunting having replaced war in some respects. apollo? sun? summer? summer king? erlking?

[Arjan]

Don't feed the duck!

The number of theories and long post alredy eat too much of my time for you to motivate her.

Sorry. Feeding ducks is a traditional thing to do for small children where I live.

[Paladino]

Ok, I'd like to see The Curupira (but a more original version not the current "good guy" one), he probally fit well as a more darker member of summer...

I doubt anyone will know who this one knows without googling..

[rekshek]

Gandalf, because in some parallel universe he is real darnit, and he is >>>> Merlin!

Tyr, Freya, Heimdall Prometheus.

[Second Aristh]

A bit more of the Greek pantheon (the Furies would be nice assassins for Zeus )
The Rakshasas that keep getting mentioned!!
How about Puck?  ([WAG] he should be a wyldfae that changes loyalties depending on his master; Puck=Jack Frost if he's Winter or Puck=Robin Goodfellow if he's Summer [/WAG] )

[Cruness]

Apollo has Sun, Light, intellect, prophecy, and truth among others. Primarily my exposure to Apollo has been as a god of wisdom enlightenment and intellect. The Greek god of of war was Ares.  If he has appeared as one of the immortals I would bet he got rolled into Odin, but I don't see the Erlking as a fit at all.

[Socratov]

oeh! I thought of a funny one: The Morrigan, 3 for the price of 1 

(and they are rumored to battle Medb a.k.a. Maeve, so the way is clear)

[GrandPanjandrum]

Themis...the Goddess of Justice.   She's the chick with the sword and the scales wearing a blindfold.  Considering there are statues of her in just about every government building, every law office, and topping stationary everywhere, and she is recognized as well as known throughout the world...she'd be S-T-R-O-N-G.  She'd, also, be merciless.

[Electric MacButters]

Gandalf, because in some parallel universe he is real darnit, and he is >>>> Merlin!

Tyr, Freya, Heimdall Prometheus.

Personally, I'm pretty sure Heimdall has been in almost every book.  He was/is the watcher, guardian of the bifrost bridge and first line of defense against the invasion of Asgard (and there is a nagging thought in the back of my head that he was only supposed to speak when sounding a warning, but I may well be wrong).  Now who do we know that rarely speaks, has preternatural healing, jokes with Odin, and was called 'the observer' by his enemies? 

I suspect Loki is currently chained in the depths of demonreach; and that he is an outsider who teamed up with Odin to try and pull a long con to bring down the gates (he who walks beside, maybe?)
