bjornwilde Fun canon things from the Guardians of Childhood series...behind a cut 'cause kind a spoilers. The Man In The Moon and Pitch are survivors of a celestial civilization that existed before Earth had a moon.
Pitch was nearly responsible for destroying said celestial civilization.
The moon is the last remaining celestial vessel from said civilization.
Nicholas was taught magic by a wizard who survived the fall of Atlantis. He later adapts said magic to technology, even going to far as to make portable music players and a mechanical djinn that can do all sorts of things.
Nicholas was an orphan and a wildling. He crawled out of a forest when he was around four and joined a band of Cossacks. He lived with them until his teen years when he decided they were too brutal. I want to research Cossacks to see if there is anything to this or if the author is being lazy. About Cossack brutality I mean, not Nicholas' childhood.
He was then a bandit for many years before stumbling across the wizard's settlement.
The Easter bunny, i.e. E. Aster Bunnymund, lives on Easter Island and is a pooka, which is a race from that celestial civilization I mentioned before. He also time travels and is likely immortal as he was alive during that civilizations time. He's also a lot like a vulcan or Ent until he eats chocolate. He then goes all klingon/Hulk.
Definitely a fun series and I am nearing the end of book two, which means I'll be onto the Tooth Fairy next. Then I need to get my hands on the Sandman story book, which is a picture book. The first three are very quick reads, only being between 3 and 4 hours long in audiobook form. I almost wish they were longer but I am not sure if the wondrous things would translate to a longer story. The shorter story makes them seem much more like fables where anything can happen.
