This question is for any of the authors who care to answer - what is your favorite Whateley story arc?
Do you mean ones we didn't write ourselves?

I'll leave that up to the respondent(s). I suppose that depending on which hat you're wearing at a given moment (creator vs collaborator vs consumer), the selection might be different. I also suppose that it might be difficult to pick just one arc, given the massive archive that's accumulated over the decades.

Well, my favourite one that I wrote 'As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted'.
My favourite other story is the Imp series by Morpheus, because its basically fun and insane

Serious and angsty, Buffallo Girl by Elrod.
Wanting to be amused, anything with Imp.
Action oriented, Eldritch is always good.
For my own work. Its easy, Making A Noise In The World is the only completed arc I have.

Most stories by Starwolf, I found his world building engaging and developed interesting plots.
Character?
Imp, there’s just something about crazy. Plus she reminds me of an art teacher I had in high school.
Least favourite is my own work, I am my own worst critic.

I'm going to be a little self-serving and say the GEO Arc which I introduced to the Universe and which numerous authors have included in their work in one way or another. It's going to (finally) get some camera time here in the near (relatively) future, now that the Gen 1 timeline has moved into range of the Spring of Year 2. You'll finally know the reason behind the much hinted at lack of MMORPG industry in Gen 2... and learn how it is that GEO does what it does... and why.
My favorite Arc introduced by others? I really enjoy the Combat Finals vignettes. They're not really an 'arc' in the traditional sense, but I love the way we've shown off this one aspect of the Universe in a way that reveals numerous characters who might otherwise just be in the background.
Fate guard you, and may the Light brighten your Way.

I think it's no surprise that I might be a fan of the Fabulous Imp and her growing family, but I also enjoyed Kettlekorn's "Dance of the Suzie Q Fairy" as a literal "What if?" story. In Gen 2, I've enjoyed Wasamon's "Keeping Cool" / "Quantum Suicides" arc.
Domo's "How Far" and JG's "Book of Darwin" are still gut punches, but if our heroes are so much more capable then so too shall be our demons.
As a "collaborator", let's just say that I think you'll be surprised how some characters manage to interact.

Probably a weird way to answer this but the characters (and therefore stories) I found easiest to write / write against were Fey, Jade and Tabby Cat as the way they had already been written meant I already felt I knew these characters.
Oh and Aquerna, but everybody likes Aquerna.

I found Miasma easier to write than Aquerna.
Maybe that says something about me.
