I've been threatening a post like this for a long time but you know what, people have made noises that they'd actually want to see it so here we go, I'm doing it. Gird your loins, people:

I WANT CANONMATES

HI I meandered over her via a convoluted route from Taxon's fourth wall and basically...cosigned, all of this. Ozma is a fantastic character and I wish I had the time/energy/courage to give her a shot. Also fwiw the Tin Man cast has p. much agreed she and Dorothy are canon, hurrah attempts at continuity.

BUT YEAH the canon's ridiculously accessible and an easy read and...augh I wish there were more Oz folks around of any stripe, but especially the books :(

HELLO I've played with you before, actually, I played an OC at Taxon for a brief spell a million years ago (not really that long ago but whatevz!!!) Anyway HI you are welcome at all times :3

I used to see people playing from the Gregory Maguire books sometimes, I know somebody playing Liir used to float around, and every so often you see a Galinda or Elphaba from the musical, but other than that it's a pretty dry well. It doesn't help that I've kind of been on hiatus from stuff for the past few years, kind of doing a few slow-moving PSLs and avoiding appcomm stuff and what-have-you, but I'm getting back into it now (You should check out Baedal, it's what all the cool kids are doing, and I will be playing a rebooted AU Dorothy there! bum bum buhhh) and IDK.

It's weird not seeing any real fairy tale/fable/nursery rhyme type stuff around anymore. There used to be oodles! Now just trying to find a half-decent Goblin King is like pulling teeth. It makes me sad :C

Your blog looks nice, even so it would be far better if you’ll be able to use lighter colors too as a professional design. This will make sure that a lot more readers come to check it out.Informative post by the way!
