An Intro to Sir Ember
Nov. 7th, 2021 05:56 pmWho is Sir November Nighte?
The Hero of the Realm, duh!
No, but really.
Okay, so the basic idea here is that somebody (or somebodies) in the October Daye universe are writing parodied versions of Toby's adventures and her friends - or rather, about the adventures of Sir November Nighte, Faerie Knight.
Everything else beyond that is up to you. Are you writing in-universe fanfiction on Ao3, or is your idea of somebody sneakily publishing a book about Toby with the names changed? Is your writer somebody Toby knows closely, or maybe someone from a kingdom over who only heard rumours of Sir Daye? Anything goes!
If you want to write your own:
Below you'll find some of the names and details we crowdsourced, but absolutely feel free to come up with different names for everyone and everything. You probably want to keep Toby's - I mean, Sir Ember's name, but other than that, anything is free game.
If you post your work on ao3, please tag with "Ember Nighte Universe (October Daye)" in the ADITIONAL TAGS field to make it easier for people to find works playing with this concept!
(Also, if you're in the October Daye Discord, feel free to request the "Sir Ember's Entourage" role to be pinged for any future works in this universe!)
Optional name suggestions:
