[LNHY/ACRA] The Daily Super Short-Short Story #63 [Long, again]

[Saxon Brenton]

[Martin unearths a lot of freaky cool stuff on Nephilim]
 
Okay, I hadn't been aware of a lot of that.  I like to browse
mythology, because you get some really cool references (the
'St. Christopher as a dog-head' is one of them) but I find that 
I just don't have time to follow up on all references <pouts>.
 
Like Eagle said, Nephilim turn up in a lot of places, not least
of all in fanatasy with wildly erratic backgrounds and natures.
(of which my use of them in DSSSStory hasn't helped :-p
 
I had been aware of Nephilim at the back of my mind, had that
memory jogged by their use in the background of the In Nomine 
RPG, & did a minimal bit of reaquainting myself with them so that
my use would be at least tangetally related to the real thing. 
Of course, if I had have known all that I might have been 
tempted to *use* some of it, and then Jamas would have started
yelling at me about dropping doctral disserations into my 
stories again... (Yes, I'm weak-willed in that regard).
