DW5 is happening in my OMB universe. There are some very important things people should know. I don't establish this in OMB because I didn't need to, but you people are nitpicky enough that I feel I should.
1) For the 376428747th time, OMB is based off the OAVs, NOT the manga. I steal bits from the manga, but not everything. The Lord of Terror arc WILL NOT HAPPEN. So if I haven't mentioned it yet in OMB, I'm not going to use it yet or (just as likely) I haven't seen it yet.
(I'm WAY behind on my manga.)
2) Also please remember that the OMB celestial situation is much different from the OMG one. All the major religious pantheons exist. (The Judeo/Christian/Islamic one exists as presented in In Nomine.)
3) OMB Ch 11 is the last chapter, and ends in the Mara intro arc (based off the manga story). DW5 happens shortly after that.
4) Don't confuse the mythological familial relationships with current ones. For example, in Norse mythology the Norns are not Vanir, in OMB they are. In Norse mythology the Norns are not sisters to Thor, in OMB they are.
5) In Norse mythology Vanir and Aesir define race, in OMB they define role. The Norns are Vanir, Paradox is Aesir.
6) The mythology gives you a picture of what a deity/demon was ONCE, not like they are now. Example: Indra in Hindu mythos of Vedic times was a supreme god (and four armed and red). Of Brahamanic times, he was rather cowardly and deceitful. In OMB, he looks like a surfer with an attitude like Walker Texas Ranger.
7) I haven't seen these stories yet, but I think I've managed to fix this one. In the Norse mythos, Hild is one of the Valkyrie. In the manga, she's Hel. For ease of use I'm saying its her current use-name, like Belldandy vs Verthidandy.
These notes are subject to change based on the whims of me and Bob.
