Muses 'R' Us - Darknight's Muses
Unlike the other (female) members of the Gwethil, Darknight is assisted by a primarially female stable of muses. They, however, prefer the term "harem".
 |
Name : Peter Pevensie
Title : High King of Narnia
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'One At A Time, Ladies'
Favorite Song : (Can't) Stop The Rock by Apollo Four Forty
Appeal to FanGirls : Immeasurable
Quote : “Look, don't just stand there – help me get this thing off my head.”
Owned by : Darknight
Peter is the nominal leader of Darknight's muses, simply because High King outranks (at least on paper) anything else the others can muster. Concerned with basically three things – girls, violence and drink – Peter likes nothing more than to go to the local Hooters with his pals Obi-Wan Kenobi and Boromir and start a ruck. |  | Name : Luthien Tinuviel
Title : Princess of Doriath
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'Real Women Do It With Wolves'
Least likely to want to be mistaken for : Liv Tyler
Quote : “When the Silmarilion says 'enthrall men with dancing', you realize that does involve a pole and $10 bills in my g-string?”
Owned by : Darknight
Described (accurately) by Peter as a “pagan tart”, Luthien has diligently attempted to cast off her prim and proper Elven princess image as swiftly as she has done her clothes. Formerly a lover of Obi-Wan Kenobi (and famed for the infamous statement, “Believe, me girls – there's nothing light about his saber!”) she is now currently “between men” (sometimes literally) after the appearance of Merit Solo (one of Lady Deb's OCs) on the scene. |  | Name : Lara Croft
Title : Duchess of Saint Bridget, Doctor of Archeology
Favorite T-shirt slogan : A long one
Plausibility of figure : Low
Quote : “You're not raiding any tombs looking like that . . .”
Owned by : Darknight
Perhaps the most sensible and level-headed of Darknight's muses (bear in mind, the competition is hardly stellar and she does raid tombs wearing nothing more than a swimsuit and daisy dukes), Dr Croft is always eager to explore strange new tombs and shoot innocent men in suits. She has a huge crush on Daniel Jackson and is eager to show him her meso-American pottery. |  | Name : Xena
Title : Princess of unspecified warriors
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'You're A Naughty Girl – Go To My Room'
Preferred method of carpentry : Tongue and groove
Quote : “Pillow fight and spin the bottle, anyone?”
Owned by : Darknight
Although it has never been confirmed where Xena was born, current evidence is leaning towards the island of Lesbos. Hired because, originally, she said that she knew a lot about the “Saphic arts” and Darknight was working on poetry at the time, it seems as if something was lost in translation – although never quite enough. Xena's reputation as a kick-ass warrior-maiden has obscured the simple truth of the matter – she's basically a ditzy sorority girl with a magical chakram and a penchant for ticking off gods. Not a good combination. |  | Name : Mace Windu
Title : Jedi Master and Council Member
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'I'm With Stupid'
Current mood : Mushroom cloud layin' mother****er, mother****er
Quote : “Get my lightsaber out of the bag . . .”
Owned by : Darknight
Mace Windu is substantially more kick-ass than you are. It is, in fact, theorized that Mace Windu is made entirely of kick-ass. Devoted to peace, civilization and kicking your ass Master Windu is an expert in the ways of the Force and provides significant inspiration for scenes which involve ass-kicking. |  | Name : Admiral Ackbar
Title : Admiral of the Alliance to Restore the Republic
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'IT'S A TRAP!'
What is it? : IT'S A TRAP!
Quote : “IT'S A TRAP!”
Owned by : Darknight
Poor Admiral Ackbar has been assigned to muse duty entirely by accident it seems - all the dear fishman wants to do is relax, write his memoirs, and go fishing. Or whatever fish do - perhaps it's "go humaning". In any case, the good Admiral appears to be suffering from some sort of post-traumatic stress disorder. He maintains, however, that he is not. He maintains that "It's a trap!" |  | Name : Trinity
Title : First-mate of the Nebuchadnezzar
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'Most Guys Think I'm A Guy Until They Notice These'
Drinks soup from a mug because : There is no spoon
Quote : “I'd rather you stopped trying to hit on me and hit me!”
Owned by : Darknight
Hired because of her experience with action / adventure stories with a strong philosophical bent, and also because she is super-hot, Trinity is a formidable and expert muse. She has forged an excellent working-relationship with Mace Windu and has inspired Harry to helpless lust. She spends most of her wages on talcum powder and baby-oil; something which does nothing to take the edge of Harry's desire. |  | Name : Arwen Undomiel
Title : Lady of Imladris, Queen of the Reunited Kingdom
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'Aerosmith'
Parody film title not to mention around her : "The Three-Thousand Year-Old Virgin"
Quote : "If you want him, come and claim him!"
Owned by : Darknight
Arwen is a late addition to Darknight's stable of muses, and was originally hired simply on a temporary basis to help with The Lay of Arwen Undomiel. However, she has proven to be a thoroughly conscientious, professional and intelligent muse, advising on a number of different projects with her customary aplomb. Luthien appears to hate her with a passion, calling her a "Third Age wannabe" and "cheap knock-off". Arwen is flawlessly polite in return, but such cutting courtesy can sometimes be little less than a slap in the face. Perhaps owing to her facial similarity to Betsy Ross, the girlfriend of his bodyguard's fellow Avenger Bruce Banner, Tony Stark and Arwen have become firm friends. |  | Name : "Little" Red Riding Hood
Title : Metaphorical representation of sexual innocence in Fairytales
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'My, What Big Goodies I Have'
Likes : Woodcutters with big choppers
Quote : "Who's afraid of the big bad 'Hood?"
Owned by : Darknight
Red, as she likes to be called, ain't so little any more. She's all grown up - "In all the right places," as Peter Pevensie says. Having been left a large inheritance by her Grandmother (who, it seems, survived being cut out of the Big Bad Wolf's stomach only to tragically die while choking on a cookie) she lives in a 10,000 sq ft gingerbread mansion in the middle of the forest. She spends her nights as a vigilante, working out her childhood traumas by hunting wolves so that no other little girls will ever be afraid to walk to their grandmothers' houses. She's been seen talking with Carl about developing some "wonderful toys" for her - she appears to be paying in baked-goods and favors that only a friar (not a monk) can accept. Periodically, she turns up at Darknight's house, bearing goodies and distracting the other muses. |  |
Name : Anthony "Tony" Stark
Title : CEO of Stark Industries and Ironman
Favorite T-shirt slogan : ' O '
Theme Song : Hammer And Tongs by Klaus Badelt
Whatever you can do : He can do in a cave, with a box of scraps
Quote : “Ironman? Oh, he's my bodyguard. Yeah, my bodyguard - they'll believe that.”
Owned by : Darknight
Hired as a result of the other guys in Darknight's stable of muses wanting "another dude around here - one with some cash who won't keep us on a small allowance like Lara". Having said all that, the girls didn't voice too many objections. Tony, as he prefers to be called, spends his time advising on technical details, scientific accuracy and financial matters. Periodically, he disappears for long stretches of time which just happen to coincide with the appearance of his bodyguard Ironman. |  | Name : The Knight Industries Two-Thousand (KITT)
Title : Automotive Sentient Mainframe Artificial Intelligence
Favorite T-shirt slogan : Whatever is written on the tied-off ones April and Bonnie wear
Likes : Vivaldi, Chess, Penzoil
Quote : "My sensors indicate that the excrement has indeed encountered the rotating ventilation device, Michael"
Owned by : Darknight
Although not the first AI with wheels to be assigned to muse duty, KITT is certainly one of the more intelligent and thoughtful muses. Possessed of a dry wit, an encyclopedic knowledge of many different subjects and a incredible zero-to-sixty time, KITT is a vital addition to the Gwethil's muses - not merely because it means that people who can't drive can get where they are going without too much difficulty. |  | Name : Ziva David
Title : NCIS Special Agent
Favorite T-shirt slogan : 'Institutionalized'
Theme Song : That's The Way It Is by Celine Dion
God struck a man dead for touching the Ark of the Covenant : So you might want to reconsider that hand's destination
Quote : "I am looking your horsey gift right in the mouth, Tony!"
Owned by : Darknight
Hired in the wake of a massive Netflix-marathon of watching the whole of season 6 of NCIS, Officer David brings her own particular blend of enthusiasm, beauty, brains and brawn to the group. Not to mention bagels and lox. It's a bit like krav maga, only with more cream-cheese and capers, and less abject violence. Ziva has proven to be a highly-competent muse, advising on international politics, intelligence services and combat. She has been seen (and heard) sparing with Hauptmann Wardenclyffe - it is unclear how much of this has a theological cause and how much is geo-political. He generally takes a while to recognize her. |  | Name : Persephone
Title : Co-owner of Club Hell, Exile, digital vampire, Mother of the Matrix
Favorite T-shirt slogan : None; who would be insane enough to cover up perfection?
Running her program : Is the reason your CPU is overheating
Quote : "She'll do it. If she has to, she'll kill every one of us. She's in love."
Owned by : Darknight
Perhaps considered an inevitable addition to his stable of Muses, Persephone nevertheless took a while to be employed by Darknight. Beautiful, seductive, manipulative and deliciously bitter, Persephone's skill at engineering (and reverse-engineering) relationships, assignations and recriminations is second to none. Most of the time, she just watches with coffee-dark eyes and shivers as raw emotion slithers around her wounded heart and soothes it. Her and Trinity have a tolerable working relationship, although Persephone's constant demands for kisses are wearing to almost everyone. Persephone herself is happy with her role as Muse, advising on personal interaction and growing (in her own words) "fat and happy" as she gorges herself on the complex buffet of emotions the Gwethil, their muses and OCs create. |
