So who exactly are
Jewel, anyway?
If you're a fan of Jem, then you'll already
know who the Misfits and the Holograms are. Jewel's world is simply a follow-on
from the eighties world of the cartoon - the next generation of young rock
stars. Jewel are Elizabeth Santiago (Copper), Aurora Stapleton (Topaz),
Nancy Pelligrini (Goldie) and Sylvina Martescu (Sylva), and the fanfiction
on this site follows them through the trials and tribulations of the music
business in 21st century Los Angeles.
So how is Jewelfic
relevant to the original series, then?
Simple. It's probably safe to say that Jewelfictions
are simply tales from the Misfits' future.
Set the scene. It's twenty odd years after
the separation of the Misfits. Pizzazz and Jetta now co-run Misfit Music.
Stormer, married with twin girls, lives in Washington DC with her husband,
and Roxy is based out in Philadelphia, though she takes active interest
in Stormer's family's problems.
And there are plenty of those.
Stormer's daughter Sylvina is impetuous and
out of control, and it's Roxy's idea to send her to Los Angeles to find out
what the her dream career in the music business is all about. There she
is teamed up with Jetta's daughter Nancy, who resents the association from
the off.
Raya is no longer in music, for after the
suicide of rock diva Jem and the subsequent unrest in the Hologram camp,
she dabbles in acting, and launches a successful career with the help of
her film director husband, Esteban. Her daughter, Elizabeth, is spotted by
a talent scout, and soon the idea of Jewel is formed.
But things do not go smoothly. Pizzazz's
estranged daughter Emily is on the scene, wanting to cause as much trouble
for her mother's company as she can, and in the midst of the melee is the
future of the Starlight Foundation, Starlight Music itself, and one rather
senile computer...
So are all the stories
just about Jewel?
No. There is a big variety. Though the stories
are set in the future and Jewel are the stars, there are other important
characters too, all of whom can be met on the character biography pages.
Some stories tie in closely to the characters of the past, others focus more
on the lives and fortunes of the Jewelfic girls and the people around them.
You can pick and choose what you want to read, though the stories follow
on for the most part in sequence.
Jewelfic is also twinned closely with Gemma
Dawn's Teenangel Outsider fiction, and you might see one or two of her characters
making cameo appearances in my stories - likewise mine might appear in
hers. To save you confusion as to who created who, I have made character
biographies on my page solely for those characters I created. Gemma's characters
have biographies on the Teenangel Outsider website.
