Definitions by galen deepinglen

goth 

The term originates from a Neo-Classicist during the 1800's, comparing the Romantics to the Goths of old who sacked Rome. The term stuck, though it has been warped over the ages. Nowadays it is a sub-culture that emphasizes the dark, spooky and cynical. The heavy, sorrowful themes stem from the Romantic Movement's emphasis on emotion, drama, and the human condition. This includes the color black, vampires, and the works of Edgar Allen Poe.

So those oh-so-witty definitions of goth as a few Germanic tribes are tragically,tragically right.

Changeling: the Dreaming

One of White Wolf Studio's greatest, and most misunderstood, achievements in pen-and-paper roleplaying games.

Vampire: They're just faeries, what could they do?
Redcap: Mmm... hungry... *CHOMP*
Vampire: AAAH! THE AGG!!!

Death 

The one thing that, being completely relentless and inevitable, you need not worry about.

Death? Why the hell should I care about Death? She get's one shot at me and then I'm in the clear.

Tilly and the Wall 

1. A bunch of beautiful, feisty kids who know alot more about life than most. Possibly a motley of satyr and pooka wilder.

No we won't be scared
No we won't back down
We will sing pretty songs about love
And we will fight if that's what it takes
And we won't back down
No we won't shut our eyes and go to sleep
We will write all over your walls
And we will dance to no music at all
We will do what it takes to get through to you.
-Tilly and the Wall

Existentialism

Life may be pointless. We will die and leave no marking on the world.

But that's no bloody reason to stop trying. In struggle humans are beautiful creatures. We are each our own invention fighting against the waves of Entropy to give our life meaning. And THAT is why life is worth living.

... at least that was always my take on it.
