The Labyrinth Clan is a clan of gargoyles, and mutates who live amongst the homeless humans in the abandoned Cyberbiotics facility known as the Labyrinth since 1996.
Contents
History
In 1996, Demona staged her own capture in order to steal the genetic material of four members of the Manhattan Clan: Hudson, Brooklyn, Lexington, and Broadway. During this time, Demona attempted to persuade her daughter Angela to join her in her quest against humanity. To accomplish this, Thailog and Demona (working with Anton Sevarius), devised a plan for her to be captured by the Manhattan Clan, and to be kept as a prisoner in the Labyrinth so that she could collect DNA samples from each clan member using robotic mosquitos. After several months, Thailog came to free Demona, who in turn freed Fang, who was a prisoner in the cell beside her, saying that he was annoying, but he may come of some use.
Goliath and Talon tracked Demona and Thailog to an abandoned fun house on Coney Island, whereupon the clones revealed themselves to their prospective genetic donors. After Goliath and his clan were captured, Thailog ordered Demona to kill Angela, a command she refused to fulfill. At this point, Thailog revealed that he suspected that she would betray him and brought to light his gargoyle-human hybrid clone of Demona and Elisa Maza, Delilah. Demona released the Manhattan Clan, and after a struggle, the Manhattan gargoyles defeated their clones. Meanwhile, Demona fought Thailog atop a rollercoaster which caught on fire and collapsed; both appeared to have perished in the crash, but in fact they survived.
As the Manhattan Clan was unsure of what to do with the clones, and did not wish to accept them into their clan, Talon volunteered to take them to the Labyrinth and teach them to think for themselves "and use verbs." ("The Reckoning")
On Halloween of 1996, Thailog returned to the Labyrinth and attempted to take command of the clones as part of his plan to stage a fight with the Manhattan clan and once again extract DNA samples from them. The clones once again fought with their counterparts under Thailog's orders, but in the end they chose for themselves what they wished to do. Delilah, clearly the most articulate and thoughtful of the clones, chose to return to the Labyrinth, and her "brothers", Burbank, Malibu and Hollywood, decided to go with her. Brentwood chose to follow Thailog and left the Clan. ("Masque", "Bash") It seems likely that Delilah will in time become leader of this Clan. Furthermore, there seems to exist a certain animosity between the Labyrinth Clan and the Manhattan Clan. Though not quite enemies, they are not strong allies either. This explains why two clans in such close proximity choose to remain seperate even after many years.
The Labyrinth Clan will come to be the home of other individuals created or mutated through cloning and genetic engineering and they will protect and shelter the homeless, outsiders and misfits that have no where else to go. The Clan will become one of the ten founding clans of the Gargoyle Nation.
By 2198, the Clan will have grown and there will be rumors that cloning still continues there. The leader of the Clan and the Clan's eggs will be kidnapped by the Space-Spawn when they attack Queen Florence Island.
Characteristics
The clones of the Labyrinth Clan are genetic copies of the Manhattan Clan, with the exception of Delilah, and as such share the characteristics of the Manhattan Clan, except color. They also have certain genetic oddities such as white mouths with black teeth (and perhaps bones). Some descendents of this Clan will have small amounts of human DNA in them. The Labyrinth Clan, however, lacks any gargoyle beasts. At some point in the future, the clan will acquire gargoyle beasts, but it is not known how or exactly when.
