do_it_oocGreetings. My name is Nix and I bring you an androgynous rock n' roll deity!
Just wanted to post a quick little intro notice for Ziggy Stardust. This pretty thing is well along his way in his spiral into decadence. I am starting him from the beginning of the end. The crest of his wave of fame and excess. The canon I'm using includes not just The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, but also bits of Diamond Dogs and Aladdin Sane and the movie version of The Man Who Fell to Earth. (I will be writing a more detailed explanation of his canon in his journal, so I'm sorry to leave it vague here.)
Basically, Ziggy is an alien given mostly-human form. His world was ending and, as part of a group of rebellious youth, he escaped to Earth in hope of finding help or a sanctuary for escape. He found little help and little hope of returning home for his friends. The money and fame he planned to use to help his comrades was soon going to waste on more decadent and self-serving exploits and he has been losing track of his original goals. After all, back home he's little more than common, but here...he's a prophetic, beautiful, rock God.
We're pleased to meet you. Do be kind, won't you?

Date: 2011-10-07 12:09 am (UTC)We've talked this over -- and do still need to work out details? -- but for the edification of others, I've had it as silly headcanon for a while that Pink exists in a universe with a handful of other concept album/rock opera figures, including Ziggy Stardust. Who has been dead for a decent while by Pink's time, so his reaction to his appearance is going to be delightful.
