I thought about that!
Kristina Kringle is a great name.
I think I'll go with something a little less on-the-nose for the woman in my story. Likewise no Holly, Carol, Noelle, or anything explicitly Christmas-y.

Hmm...
Voodoo Santa with dreadlocks? Does the machine poke pins in the naughty ones giving them ulcers and arthritis? Sounds fun.

Wait are you writing this? O_O
I'm gonna try! The plotbunny is gnawing at my brain, so hopefully I can figure something out.
Do itttttttt!
Is it going to be a lesbian Santa Claus?
I'm not sure yet. Might have to actually write something before I figure it out.
I had an idea for a Santa story once. I don't remember the details, but basically there's a secret society at the North Pole involved in protecting some kind of magic that they use to grant wishes. Like, serious wishes. It's extremely dangerous magic.
Oh! Now I remember. If a kid witnesses Santa Claus after a certain age, they have to be abducted into the order. And in the story there are lots of sleigh drivers but the main guy is "the" Santa Claus and in the story he's a young guy, maybe 25. The MC is one of the kids who had to be kidnapped because he saw Santa and is a sleigh driver now but he has lots of problems and steals the magic to try to fix his problems...
I remember they used animals other than reindeer to pull sleighs. Arctic foxes and seals and polar bears...
Strange minds do think alike! I was pondering about lesbian characters in fantasy just today.
Love this idea!!!
...Brain. Seriously. When I'm poking at a new baby plotbunny, you really don't need to give me a completely unrelated character. Even if she is pretty cool. I could use more black characters in my stories, but when I'm trying to write about Santa Claus, a pirate is just distraction.
Or IS it...?
Exactly what are you insinuating? XD
Heeeeyyy just don't go and ASSUME a pirate doesn't belong in a Santa story
The pirate totally fits. Sleigh-hijacking, present-stealing pirates!!
