Welcome
Hello, all! Since I've started questing for a muse-inspired senshi, I've been hoping to find others who'd like to do something similar and for the characters to form an Order-aligned team. I'm planning to corrupt Mneme into the Dark Mirror Court. So ideas?
Keep in mind:

Terpsichore (Τερψιχόρη), muse of dance and choral poetry - emblem (lyre): Terpsichore was the protector of dance; she invented dances, the harp and education.
