Having Peebs from the Apokolips of the LMBverse most certainly gives you more guidelines as to what his origin could be, but then making it something similar gives you more freedom. For me, I like the freedom of working with a race and world that have no analogue in any other fictional universe. I also like the distinction between the LMBverse and the DCU.

quote: Invisible Brainiac I agree with Cobie, don't worry too much about it. There are plenty of ways to get your creations to fit in with the LMB verse I'm sure your additions will be welcomed, and I don't think you're changing anyone else's creations right?
Most of it's just background information that sits in my notes, stuff pertaining to Emily's family that wouldn't come up in normal roleplaying or fanfiction. I share it occasionally with collaberators/friends because it's interesting.
A part of it is simply geography. My other character, Question Lad comes from this place called Nasger which I based on the Portuguese Empire. I just wonder where it would be in the context of the LMBverse (other than far).
Cool, sounds like you've put a lot of thought into it. Looks like it'll be a very interesting read.

We've had a couple jokers spam our wiki by either inserting gibberish and links into existing pages or creating a new one with no real point. I've blocked both IPs and blanked the new article.

Just place the following tag on the bottom:
[[Category:Legion World locations]]

Actually though... looking at the article, it might be better categorized as:
[[Category:Legion World institutions]]
which is a subcategory of "Locations"

I have simplified Emily's origin so it makes more sense to both myself and the readers. It also makes it easier for me to use her former boyfriends in future stories.

I knocked out 5 of the 11, and will probably finish the others up over the weekend. I had forgotten how fun the Wiki was!

Great contribution, Ex! It's so nice to have legitimate articles added to it. So much of my time with it of late has been deleting vandalism and banning vandals.

I've been toying with having a category on the wiki "LGBT characters". Of course in the 31st Century LMB-verse a person's sexual orientation or identity is fairly irrelevant, but open inclusion has been one of the hallmarks of this group since a time when it did matter. What do people think?

Not sure what you mean by "category on the wiki".
While we can hope and assume orientation isn't an issue in the 31st century, I don't think biology will have changed so much that most people won't have a distinct preference, to whatever degree.
In a time when it's not considered a sensitive subject, why wouldn't it automatically be included in any database that includes things like gender, favorite color, date of membership, and planet of origin? It's just one more bit of public knowledge of the Legionnaire.

The LMB Wiki, the subject of this thread, is dedicated to the characters and continuity created on Legion World and its predecessor forums, the Legion of Message Board Posters.
As in any wiki, the articles are grouped into categories. For example, the entry for my character, Rockhopper Lad includes the following categories:
Legion of Message Board Posters members Legion World residents Pyngwyn Colonies of Planet Hyustyn
He would also be included in a category "LGBT characters".
