Hi! I need your help, guys! I'm doing a story based off of The Seven Ravens (which is public domain, so if you haven't read it, you can find it very easily on the Internet). A comic, to be precise.
Why do I need your help? Well, I'm coming up with a bunch of Star characters. As in, characters based off of the stars in the sky. I want to base them off of constellations, and I'm having a little bit of trouble deciding which ones to do.
Right now, I have Orion, Andromeda, Ursa Major (the big dipper), Ursa Minor (the little dipper), Capricornus, Draco... and that's it.
So, if you would please list off the first 5 to 10 constellations that come to mind, that would be super! (Don't worry if I already have them on my list.)

I kind of wanted people to list the ones that came into their head without looking any up, that's all. Anyone can find a list of constellations online. That wasn't the point. =P

Between facebook, twitter, and this thread, I think I have a good idea of what constellations people think of first. Thanks, guys!
I'm locking this thread now.
