Abandoned "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" Step(s)

[Bob Schroeck]

---

Crosses burn them, but maybe not holy water.

---

I remember holy water being used in early seasons, but not recently.

---

Oh, and the Norns did not spin any threads of fate.

---

True -- but in the cosmology behind the Walk, all the Triune goddesses are the same set of Three, and thus the Norns are the same people as the Greek Fates, who did spin the lives of mortals and gods. As I said to Logan over in the DWII forum, the various pantheons and attached cultural baggage should be seen as "filters" that make the divine more comprehensible to mortals.

---

And I *believe* there might have been a valkyrie (no, not the jet/robots from macross) named Skuld. Might have been a different Skuld, but still opens up story possibilities.

---

No, it's the same Skuld; she's actually their leader. Undocumented Features has been using this recently, but I've had it in my notes since I discovered it in one of our mythology references a few years back.

---

Oh, and very funny stuff. Very funny.

---

Thanks. Unfortunately one of the reasons I'm not actively pursuing this Step is that I simply cannot be as witty as ten professionally witty people.
