Sometimes I feel like the old witch (oldest witch in the lilim) in Stardust, which everyone probably does some times. I don't resemble her, but I have a certain affinity for her. The way her character is free and uncontrolled, and how her power eventually dwindles out until she's pathetic, and so human. Also, the fact that she's part of the lilim, so she's association with Lilith, Adam's first wife, and the story of (the misunderstood) lilith, which had a huge impact on women who follow or who's family did follow the Christian tradition. I feel sorry for the old witch in Stardust, she's a misunderstood character, within her world, and maby in ours. Personally, I could never identify myself as one of Neil Gaiman's characters. Maby Yvaine from Stardust, or Rose Walker from Sandman, but only sometimes. Maura Art

Well... unfortunately for me, so far I haven't had a chance to read any of Gaiman's novels except American Gods. So I have no idea if I'm anything like those characters. As for the Sandman... well, I'm definitely not Delirium, Desire, Despair, or Destiny. I suppose, in some ways, I am like Dream- female nonetheless, I am too determined and particular about my responsibilities to be Destruction, which aren't my only Dream-like mannerisms. (hmm, despite my username of undreamed, but oh well.) However... I have learned to adapt to change and I'm not so moody and morose. But I'm not cheerful enough to be Death...

I WAS most like Dream, Morpheus, locked within the prison of my life, maintaing my function as it demanded. I would not allow myself to change and I burned myself out completely, clinging to a past that no longer mattered or cared how hard I clung to it.
Then i read Sandman and realized where i was going wrong, the similarity was truly uncanny.
Now I'm like that guy, I think he was in one of the Death mini's, and I don't think he was named, just one of the many background characters that Neil made so cool, the one that bragged about seeing all the right movies, reading all the right books, knowing all the right people, you know that Precocious Bore that has too much of nothing to say.
But then I'm also like young MiracleMan, waking up in a world that has changed so much, and I've no idea what's real and what's in my head, and I can't seem to get a footing in this new world, it moves constantly and shifts, always falling and rising and changing-maybe Delirium?

On another board, i learned that Kid Mircleman apparently commited various, large-scale Angelus-style tortures? *shudders* *hides from the BatJedi* *realizes that if Batman with Jedi training wants to find you, there's really no point in hiding* *buys a ysalamri*

lon, I believe he's referring to a different story arc. I can't explain without spoilers, but you're reffering to the Golden Age story, he seems to be reffering to the Silver Age story
