Character: Timothy Hearst
Series: D Gray Man
Character Age: 9
Canon: So we all know that exorcists are in an eternal struggle against the Earl of the Millennium and his horrible monsters known as akuma. However, fighting akuma isn’t the only thing they do. Sometimes exorcists have to run errands, track down other members, or act as escorts. In one case, Allen and company had to go to Paris in order to bail some of their friends out of jail. They had gotten tangled up in a mess involving a thief, and Allen had to solve the case in order to get them out of jail. But the whole case turned out to be a lot more than they ever expected, as the thief turned out to be a young boy by the name of Timothy.
Timothy is a very mischievous little boy with a penchant for causing trouble. He doesn’t think before he acts, even if he does act like he knows what’s going on. It doesn’t help that he’s too proud to ask for help when he gets into trouble, too. He tries to act responsible like an adult, but before long his childish side shows itself and it’s very clear that he’s got the maturity of someone his age. Timothy also doesn’t pay mind to the consequences for his actions, even when it’s pretty obvious that what he’s doing is wrong. And if he gets caught, he’ll deny having anything to do with what happened. But he does have a soft spot for his friends and family, and he is very loyal to anyone who fits into one of those two groups. He even listens to them sometimes! And he would do anything to protect them, no matter what it was.
Sample Post:
Okay, listen up everyone! I’m the new counselor here, and you all gotta do what I say. You heard me, weird smelly guys over there! See this list right here? I stole- er, I ‘borrowed’ this job list from the director’s office, since I figured you guys wouldn’t believe me. Well see this line here? It says “Timothy Hearst - Local Cuisine Tester.” That means I’m a counselor, and you all gotta listen to me. And for the last time, I didn’t scribble out someone else’s name! They spelled mine wrong, so I had to fix it. And I didn’t change a bunch of the jobs to “Candyman,” it was like that when I found this thing. Candyman is a much better job anyway.
First things first, I found this list of rules lying around. They’re all really stupid rules. Look at this one: “Rule 62: the pool is always closed.” What kind of rule is that? It makes no sense! Why would you even have a pool if you’re just going to keep it closed? But rule 42 is right, cake IS delicious. That one can stay, but most of these rules are dumb so I’m making a new set of rules. From now on, there’s only one rule: if it sounds cool, then do it. This place looks boring, so we need more awesome stuff here.
Speaking of cool things, I was trying to go swimming in the lake, like you do at a summer camp, but then a monster tried to pull me under! I would’ve drowned if it wasn’t for that guy who showed up suddenly. But I don’t get why asking a monster to ‘have a seat’ stops it from grabbing me. But anyway, you gotta get rid of that lake monster. It’s really annoying! And the water is all gross too. I can’t go swimming in water that makes you sick every time you touch it. And when you’re done, you can go ahead and build a rope swing on that tree right there, too. If the lake is gonna be for swimming, then it should have a rope swing too.
Now that I’m thinking about it, this place needs more fun things to do. A rope swing is a good start, but we need more. So from now on, every Friday is “Hide and Seek” day. Everyone has to play, and the winner gets the “most awesome player” award, so you better play or else you’ll lose the game! And today’s Friday, so you better go hide. No, you don’t get 30 minutes to hide, you’ll forget that you’re playing by then! And of course I “only meant well” by making that rule, what are you talking about? Just get back to hiding, I’ll go over by that tree to count- AAAAAAH!
Ow…who the hell puts a hole in the ground like that? This is so stupid… Hey, you up there! Stop hiding and help me out! … Yeah yeah, I know that I fell in a well! Stop calling me “Timmy” and get me out of here!

Character: Kyon
Series: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Character Age: 15-16
Canon: The series follows a girl named Haruhi Suzumiya who finds absolutely no interest in normal people rather, she’s interested in finding time travelers, aliens, and espers. One day, a boy nicknamed Kyon began to converse with her and as she unexpectedly opened up to him, she had thought of an idea of creating the SOS Brigade, a club with the purpose of finding anything dealing with the supernatural. As he was forced to join, a whole new adventure begins in his, Haruhi’s and the three other members of the SOS Brigade’s life.
Kyon is a cynical and sarcastic first year student in North High who is practically the only “normal” person in the SOS Brigade. Quite level-headed and most likely the only one with a logical voice in the group, he often intervenes when it comes to Haruhi’s outrageous ideas and is usually the only one who can dissuade the young girl from continuing some of her plans. Kyon is pretty iffy when it comes to his personal space and would prefer that everyone would respect him by not getting severely close to him, but exceptions do apply at times. Although he receives average grades in school, he can be quite observant and pretty intelligent. Even though he may seem honest to the point where he may be viewed as insensitive, he does have some good points when it comes to his personality.
Sample Post:
Ah, Miss Director, coming here was a huge mistake. Not only is it a mistake, I have a purple gorilla picking through her nose as if she’ll find some marvelous treasure in there and did I mention that she is holding onto my arm like she is giving birth to a monster? No matter how much I attempt to shake her off, her grip tightens with every move I make, so I am forced to sit here with her near this smelly swamp. Although this is just a waste of time on my part, she does protect me from those zombies who keep groaning “brains” as they walk lazily towards my direction. There was a point where one tried to bite my head off, but of course, before I even got the chance to punch the crap out of the zombie with my free arm, Miss Purple Gorilla here saved me. Even though I never really asked to be saved, but at least I don’t have to touch those things.
You know, the moment I arrived to this camp, someone immediately popped into mind, although I doubt she’d be too happy to see something as common as zombies. Well, they’re common in horror movies is what I mean. How did you get so many in one single place, anyway? Did you suddenly just buy this whole entire land and zombies started to sprout out from the ground like flowers? I would question the talking toucans, but they’re kind of leering at me and whispering to each other even though I’m right here. Ah, it doesn’t matter! I just want to go home where I can sleep-in during the weekends and not have to worry about these peculiar beings wanting to take me hostage.
-Why, of course I’m not accusing of you being a kidnapper since you’re not really taking me in as a hostage with your iron grip, Miss Purple Gorilla. I came along with you on my own accord so there’s no reason to really blame you! …But really, when do you plan on letting me go? Are you that lonely to keep clinging onto me? It would be cute with someone else, but you’re honestly hurting me. I think my entire arm fell asleep for the many hours we’ve sat here and I hope you realize that we’re not of the same species, so this type of relationship won’t really work between us. There are other gorillas out there, waiting for you to hold onto them as if Armageddon was on its way, so I would appreciate it if you would just. let. me. GO!-So, you actually did let go once I cleared things up, but why do I sense a malicious atmosphere coming from you?
…On second thought, I don’t want to know. I’m just going to run and hope you don’t chase after me.

Character: Aso Megumi
Series: Kamen Rider Kiva
Character Age: 21
Canon: Kamen Rider Kiva spans two different years, 1986 and 2008. In 1986, Kurenai Otoya and Aso Yuri fight against Fangire, vampire-like monsters that live off of life energy. In 2008, Otoya's son Wataru and Yuri's daughter Megumi continue the same fight. Existing in both times, the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization leads the battle against the monsters, utilizing Fangire Hunters to seek them out. Like her mother in the past, Aso Megumi works as a Fangire Hunter, using her day job as a fashion model for cover.
One of Megumi's greatest talents is the ability to strike fear into the hearts of the timid with her forceful personality and inability to respect personal bubbles. Don't think about hiding! She will find you because without a doubt, she knows what's best for you. Even if you don't think so. With little to no hesitation, she launches herself into people's lives and into fights against Fangire. She refuses to be ignored, scoffs at quitting anything ever, and has more confidence in her pinky finger than most people have in their life. She rewards and re-energizes herself through her love of eating. Her passion and stubbornness may land her in trouble, but often help her persevere when otherwise she might falter.

I know I look terrific despite the several-hour hike through this wonderland known as the most bug-infested, muggiest, and miserable swamp ever. Hey, don't think that I'm complaining. I'm saying that you picked the right person for the photoshoot! And I admire your taste. This dress you picked out for the shoot is very pretty -- No, no, don't touch the clothes I came in. They can stay there! I look good no matter where we are and I smile pretty and you get to take very fashionable photos in a place with unique scenery. And men dressed in purple gorilla suits... A beautiful young woman lost in an unwelcoming land, enchanting the slightly fantastical, yet realistic beasts that make it their home. No doubt that's the theme you're aiming for! Now you want me sitting on this tree branch -
On his back with the others surrounding me? My beauty has captured them and they make themselves my thralls! This is awkward -- No, I'm smiling! See, I'm still smiling. The fur is really realistic. Is this going to be okay? I've heard about overheating in those fur suits -- not that I've ever had to cover myself up like that -- and you're rather warm. Oh, you're used to dealing with the heat since you're a professional at... wearing a gorilla suit. I'll let you be then and do my job. Which is to keep on smiling! Would you like a charming one? A mysterious one? I can do them all. How about this one? I know I'm good. Thank you very much. I can make your clothes look good and smile through anything. Smile, smile, keep on smiling~ Ah, it's tiring smiling like this. I hope lunch is worth it. Miso soup and some rice and --
-- Something's poking me in the back like... Gross. I thought you said he was a professional. Get out of here! What sort of person are you? Rubbing yourself -- OH DISGUSTING. I can't even say it, but I'll let you know what I think! Did you like that? I'm going to do more than kick you where the sun -- Don't try to save him and allow him to limp away! Well, a punch in the face is what you get when you try to stop me. Stop being a crybaby about it. Really, beasts like you don't deserve to live! The rest of you are so shocked. I may have told a little lie because I never thought you were human. I wasn't fooled at all. I knew all of you were monsters when I took this job -- don't give me that look! It's easy to tell when the photographer has to keep putting his arm back on. It's too bad we couldn't have finished the photoshoot, but I'm sure you'll understand because in this world, some things shouldn't exist. And monsters that take advantage of poor, innocent girls would be one of them! God... has...
What are you doing with my clothes? Turn around and prepare to fight, you beast. All of you! Don't follow his lead -- I'm here to rid the world of your existence, not watch you rummage through the things I brought with me! That is not a hat and you're never going to fit into those shorts. For one your head is too big and that's not an attractive pose if you want to make it big. What am I saying? Would you pay attention? I'm supposed to be kicking your ass, not giving you fashion advice!

Character: Rolo Lamperouge
Series: Code Geass R2
Character Age: 16
Canon: Set in a world largely ruled by the Holy Britannian Empire, Code Geass is the story of former prince Lelouch who, after being disowned by his father following his mother's death, vows to crush the empire and create a peaceful world for his little sister to live in. He finally gets his chance upon meeting with a mysterious woman named C.C. who gives him the power to control people through his words: Geass. Having the means to finally set his plans into motion, Lelouch sets up a rebel faction under the name of Zero and declares war against Britannia. Although he manages to collect a number of victories, ultimately he is caught. A year later, with his memory completely rewritten, he's living the life of a normal student under the eye of Britannia.
Rolo enters the story as a Britannian spy whose mission is to disguise himself as Lelouch's younger brother in order to monitor him and eventually kill him should he ever regain his memories as Zero. While in disguise Rolo appears as a shy, withdrawn boy who has a hard time socializing; he's quiet, reserved, and is a bit of a doormat: it's easy to drag him along in whatever activity. In reality he isn't exactly as innocent as he might look. Always focused on his mission, Rolo is rather cold and is quick to eliminate any obstacle that stands in his way, even if it means killing. A trained assassin since childhood, he's very good at what he does, especially considering he has the added benefit of his Geass which gives him the ability to stop people's perception of time. Confident in his abilities and worth as a soldier, he can come off as arrogant and cocky at times. Having never known what it's like to have a family, Rolo came to genuinely care for Lelouch during the year he spent posing as his brother, eventually joining his side. In the end, all he wishes for is a brighter future with him.
Sample Post:
Camp Fuck You Die, Louisiana, United States. According to the data Brother sent me, it's been established that the owner of this place is a woman who goes by the name of Elizabeth Sayre. The exact age is unknown and there are no pictures of her available-- furthermore, descriptions of her may vary from person to person... I see, so this woman must be talented in disguising herself. A spy, maybe? At the very least, in order to be able to pull something like this she must have some strong connections. No common person could turn regular plants such as tomatoes into fire-throwing weapons. In addition to that, traps called "Plot Holes" seems to be hidden in the ground; falling into one should be avoided at all costs. It's hard to believe a spy would go through the trouble of setting up a camp like this just to find her lover's murderer, however. Such a thing would be a waste of time, wouldn't it? Either that story is fake, or I still haven't discovered everything I need to know about this.
According to this map, the United States seem to be located in Britannia's territories... Is "Louisiana" a rebel group? It's located in the mainland, so it's not very likely. Plus, I haven't heard of any irregular activities from that place. Interrogating the camp staffers for more information might be the best course of action, and eliminating them before they'll have the chance to contact any others is also necessary. Until then, it's important to be careful about the wild life here.
So far, I have had encounters with creatures that could be called zombies, as well as toucans capable of reading human thoughts and talking directly into someone's mind; taking that into consideration, it's more likely that this is some sort of experiment site after all. It seems that at least the toucans are useful enough to get information out of them, and if they are to be believed, there is also a "Tentacle Monster" hiding in the lake. Things such as monsters don't really exist, do they..? Since it seems the lake is radioactive, it's likely that one of the animals who lived in there has mutated. It's likely that just like the toucans and a number of things here, the Monster has some sort of abilities; something like control over the water, maybe? It doesn't seem believable, but anything should be expected.
Most of these creatures don't look like they're able to organize themselves-- someone must be controlling them. Since they seem to be dangerous, taking care of them is definitely important. However, killing each one of them would take too much time. Considering she must be the one controlling them, finding out where the director is hiding and killing her should be the most efficient method. Still, meeting up with Brother first has higher priority, especially if he risks being experimented on. He should be fine, but his power might not work against those creatures. Especially that tentacle monster; would he be able to fight it by himself?

Character: Acheron "Ash" Parthenopaeus/Apostolos
Series: The Dark Hunters series by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Character Age: Approx. eleven thousand years old, looks 21
Canon: Once upon a time, the Greek God Apollo decided to create his own race, called Apollites, intending for them to be superior to humanity. But when a handful of the Apollites killed his mistress and his son, Apollo cursed them--they can't come out in the sun, they need to drink blood in order to survive, and they will all die on their 27th birthdays. Taking pity on them, another goddess told them that they can survive beyond that birthday: kill humans and take their souls. hey are now known as either Daimons or vampires, and are hunted down by the immortal Dark Hunters, warriors who have sold their souls to Artemis for an act of vengeance against those who caused them to die, and are thereafter bound to protect mankind.
Acheron, better known as Ash, is the mentor and unofficial leader of the Dark Hunters. He is known for his eccentricity and idiosyncrasies, his sarcastic tongue and an intimidating aura. Underneath the many layers of attitude, Ash is a decent and sensitive guy, but he tries not to let that become well-known. He has a lot of secrets, starting with the small but crucial fact that he is not actually a Dark Hunter himself. He's one of the last of the gods of Atlantis, and is said to be the Final Fate, with the powers of ultimate destruction and cursed to end the universe. Fortunately for the universe, Ash has no interest in making innocent people suffer, and isn't terribly keen on ending it.
Besides, if the universe ends right now, he can't play the next Resident Evil game.
Sample Post:
Has anyone ever told you guys that you have a serious undead problem? I haven't seen this many walking, talking former corpses since... yesterday, actually, but at least they were better conversationalists than your guys here. Debatably, in some cases, but "screw you, Ash" still beats the moaning and groaning I'm getting every time I try to make a witty quip. Seriously, they weren't that bad. Like this one: "You guys need to learn to clean up after yourselves when you go out to eat--or didn't anyone ever tell you that a mind is a terrible thing to waste?" I thought it was pretty funny. You know, some people just don't have any sense of humour. ...Look, the point is, it looks like you could use some serious pest control around here. That's where I come in. Zombies aren't my usual gig, but I'm pretty sure I can make an exception for the Braaaaain-less Brigade over here.
First things first. These shotguns you have here? Sorry, but we're not talking about "Night of the Living Dead" here. Unless your boys are different from just about every single non-human creature feature I've ever met, they aren't going to do a damned thing except piss them off. Well, that and give you a head start in running the hell away. That may be the best choice for some of you, especially if your only powers involve sparkling in the sunlight or something else that's equally useless. Personally, I prefer a more hands-on approach to fighting, anyhow. This should work particularly well when their hands happen to be off to the side and about five feet away, like that guy over there. What can I say, I'm a big fan of irony (of the non-Alanis Morisette variety only, if you please). Fending off most things is all about going with what you've got, and it's twice as handy for you if they're handless.
Normally, I'd say that beheading will take care of just about anything, but somehow, I'm not entirely convinced that crossing the line between figuratively and literally losing their heads would mean all that much to a determined zombie. You're probably going to want to go with the "total dismemberment" route. Yeah, I know that it means a little more work, but I think it's worth it when their pieces mean peace for everyone else. Now, I've never actually tried chainsaws myself, but if you want to go the "Army of Darkness" route for your dismembering needs, who's to say it won't work out?
Well, we could sit around talking about survival strategies all day, but in the end, that's not really gonna help much of anything. So instead, why don't we just get straight to work? With any luck, this will all be dealt with in enough time for me to get some serious downtime with my XBox 360. Hey, you didn't think that your boys were the only hordes of the undead I'm after tonight, now did you?

Character: Riou
Series: Suikoden II
Character Age: 16
Canon: War can work in funny ways. One minute you're a soldier about to be sent home, next you're on the run for your life. Before you know it, you're the leader of an army on the opposite side to your childhood best friend.
That particular story belongs to Riou. Even though he is almost forced into this awkward position he fights with determination, unwilling to let those who trust in him down, despite his sister Nanami being strongly against it. He often jumps into situations without thinking them through entirely, missing out key details. Though he is naive and somewhat oblivious, his kindness helps him in his duty of recruiting people (or creatures, such as the giant octopus Abizboah) for the army.
Note: Riou is taken from after the good ending of the game.

There you go, good as new! It took a while, but at least we found it. I'm not sure how you managed to lose your head in a tree but-- Someone stole it? I guess that would be upsetting, but try not to fall apart, okay? Wait, why are you angry? Oh, sorry. I can see why that would be insulting seeing as you're... well, not altogether to begin with. I'll make sure to be more careful with what I say.
...Anyway, I think it's about time I went back. My friends will wonder where I am and Nanami will start making a fuss when she finds out I'm gone, so... oh, so you say you need me to help with something else? Some kind of monster in the lake? I’m not really sure what you mean by "noncon", but if it’s that much of a problem for you and you think it's something I can deal with, I'll try to give you a hand. Umm... no, not like that. I'm sorry, you took that the wrong way. My hand doesn’t detach like yours does. So could you um... let go please? That kinda hurts.
Oh wow, so this is the lake? It's so green it's glowing! I've never seen anything like it before. I wonder what makes it that bright? And it's huge too, it'll take a while to find the lake monster in thi- WOAH!
These tentacles are sooo big! Wait, are you Marcy? You remind me of someone... or err... something. Are you related to Abizboah? It's been a while since I last saw him and his family, I'm glad to hear they're doing okay. You know, I was asked to get rid of you, but you don’t seem so bad. Maybe a little, umm... too friendly at first, looking at how you picked me up. Oh, you say you want to "spend some time getting to know each other"? Okay, that's fine with me.

Character: Jowy
Series: Suikoden II
Character Age: 17
Canon: In a land plagued by war after war, two boys find themselves swept right into the middle of a maelstrom of politics and battle. Together they test the meaning of friendship, loyalty, betrayal, and destiny as they fight for all they hold dear.
Jowy is the hero Riou's childhood friend and companion. Whether it's training in martial arts, joining the army, or getting into trouble, they do nearly everything together. Being the adopted son of a noble family, Jowy is typically the more polite and proper one, if occasionally a little bit shy and sheltered. He tends to think things through and keep a level head in difficult situations, and is often planner of the pair. And while the events of the game leave him with his fair share of issues beneath the surface, at heart, Jowy has a kind, gentle nature, and is extremely devoted to his friends, especially Riou.
Note: Jowy is being taken from shortly post-game according, to the good ending.

Where in the world is this...? I didn't think I'd gone very far at all, but I don't remember the woods looking anything like this. And I think I definitely would've noticed if it was this swampy before. Or this smelly. And that lake over there, is that water glowing? That I know I would've noticed. I've a feeling we're not in Harmonia anymore...
Great, guess it looks like I must really be lost, then. I better try to find my way back quickly, before Riou and Nanami start wondering what happened. But which way should I.... Wait, I think I see someone. Thank goodness, maybe they can give me some directions. H-hey, you! Wait up!
Excuse me sir, but could you tell me where I am? I need to find out how to get back to-- wait, what did you say it's called? I really don't think I heard that right, so could you say it again? Something about a "Camp" something.... W-what kind of name is that?? I... you... it's bad enough some people say them, but p-people shouldn't name things with words like that!! What if there were children are around, or a lady? I can't possibly say something like that, even if it really is the name.
Um, well anyway, I guess I should just get going then. My friends are probably worried about me, so I should head back there before it gets any later... Could you tell me the way out from here? It can't be that far, I just got a little lost, so if you could let me know in which direction, at least, I think I can... w-what do you mean I can't leave? I have to! I promised Riou.... there has to be a way! I don't know much about magic barriers, but I've got to try, at least. If it was Riou he'd do the same thing for me, I'm sure.
Thanks for the warning anyway, but I think I'll have to go see for myself. Besides, if it's monsters or things you're worried about, I'll be just fine. Riou's a lot better at that sort of thing than me, but I know how to handle my staff, so I'll be all right. ...huh? What's so funny? Something about my staff...? I don't really get what's so special about that, anyone could do it if they practiced enough. Though I guess I could show you it if you wanted to see... No, I mean it. Look, it's just a quarterstaff, you see? So what was so funny about me using my staff, anyway?

Character: Timothy Hearst
Series: D Gray Man
Character Age: 9
Canon: So we all know that exorcists are in an eternal struggle against the Earl of the Millennium and his horrible monsters known as akuma. However, fighting akuma isn’t the only thing they do. Sometimes exorcists have to run errands, track down other members, or act as escorts. In one case, Allen and company had to go to Paris in order to bail some of their friends out of jail. They had gotten tangled up in a mess involving a thief, and Allen had to solve the case in order to get them out of jail. But the whole case turned out to be a lot more than they ever expected, as the thief turned out to be a young boy by the name of Timothy.
Timothy is a very mischievous little boy with a penchant for causing trouble. He doesn’t think before he acts, even if he does act like he knows what’s going on. It doesn’t help that he’s too proud to ask for help when he gets into trouble, too. He tries to act responsible like an adult, but before long his childish side shows itself and it’s very clear that he’s got the maturity of someone his age. Timothy also doesn’t pay mind to the consequences for his actions, even when it’s pretty obvious that what he’s doing is wrong. And if he gets caught, he’ll deny having anything to do with what happened. But he does have a soft spot for his friends and family, and he is very loyal to anyone who fits into one of those two groups. He even listens to them sometimes! And he would do anything to protect them, no matter what it was.

Okay, listen up everyone! I’m the new counselor here, and you all gotta do what I say. You heard me, weird smelly guys over there! See this list right here? I stole- er, I ‘borrowed’ this job list from the director’s office, since I figured you guys wouldn’t believe me. Well see this line here? It says “Timothy Hearst - Local Cuisine Tester.” That means I’m a counselor, and you all gotta listen to me. And for the last time, I didn’t scribble out someone else’s name! They spelled mine wrong, so I had to fix it. And I didn’t change a bunch of the jobs to “Candyman,” it was like that when I found this thing. Candyman is a much better job anyway.
First things first, I found this list of rules lying around. They’re all really stupid rules. Look at this one: “Rule 62: the pool is always closed.” What kind of rule is that? It makes no sense! Why would you even have a pool if you’re just going to keep it closed? But rule 42 is right, cake IS delicious. That one can stay, but most of these rules are dumb so I’m making a new set of rules. From now on, there’s only one rule: if it sounds cool, then do it. This place looks boring, so we need more awesome stuff here.
Speaking of cool things, I was trying to go swimming in the lake, like you do at a summer camp, but then a monster tried to pull me under! I would’ve drowned if it wasn’t for that guy who showed up suddenly. But I don’t get why asking a monster to ‘have a seat’ stops it from grabbing me. But anyway, you gotta get rid of that lake monster. It’s really annoying! And the water is all gross too. I can’t go swimming in water that makes you sick every time you touch it. And when you’re done, you can go ahead and build a rope swing on that tree right there, too. If the lake is gonna be for swimming, then it should have a rope swing too.
Now that I’m thinking about it, this place needs more fun things to do. A rope swing is a good start, but we need more. So from now on, every Friday is “Hide and Seek” day. Everyone has to play, and the winner gets the “most awesome player” award, so you better play or else you’ll lose the game! And today’s Friday, so you better go hide. No, you don’t get 30 minutes to hide, you’ll forget that you’re playing by then! And of course I “only meant well” by making that rule, what are you talking about?

Character: Kyon
Series: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Character Age: 15-16
Canon: The series follows a girl named Haruhi Suzumiya who finds absolutely no interest in normal people rather, she’s interested in finding time travelers, aliens, and espers. One day, a boy nicknamed Kyon began to converse with her and as she unexpectedly opened up to him, she had thought of an idea of creating the SOS Brigade, a club with the purpose of finding anything dealing with the supernatural. As he was forced to join, a whole new adventure begins in his, Haruhi’s and the three other members of the SOS Brigade’s life.
Kyon is a cynical and sarcastic first year student in North High who is practically the only “normal” person in the SOS Brigade. Quite level-headed and most likely the only one with a logical voice in the group, he often intervenes when it comes to Haruhi’s outrageous ideas and is usually the only one who can dissuade the young girl from continuing some of her plans. Kyon is pretty iffy when it comes to his personal space and would prefer that everyone would respect him by not getting severely close to him, but exceptions do apply at times. Although he receives average grades in school, he can be quite observant and pretty intelligent. Even though he may seem honest to the point where he may be viewed as insensitive, he does have some good points when it comes to his personality.

Ah, Miss Director, coming here was a huge mistake. Not only is it a mistake, I have a purple gorilla picking through her nose as if she’ll find some marvelous treasure in there and did I mention that she is holding onto my arm like she is giving birth to a monster? No matter how much I attempt to shake her off, her grip tightens with every move I make, so I am forced to sit here with her near this smelly swamp. Although this is just a waste of time on my part, she does protect me from those zombies who keep groaning “brains” as they walk lazily towards my direction. There was a point where one tried to bite my head off, but of course, before I even got the chance to punch the crap out of the zombie with my free arm, Miss Purple Gorilla here saved me. Even though I never really asked to be saved, but at least I don’t have to touch those things.
You know, the moment I arrived to this camp, someone immediately popped into mind, although I doubt she’d be too happy to see something as common as zombies. Well, they’re common in horror movies is what I mean. How did you get so many in one single place, anyway? Did you suddenly just buy this whole entire land and zombies started to sprout out from the ground like flowers? I would question the talking toucans, but they’re kind of leering at me and whispering to each other even though I’m right here. Ah, it doesn’t matter! I just want to go home where I can sleep-in during the weekends and not have to worry about these peculiar beings wanting to take me hostage.
-Why, of course I’m not accusing of you being a kidnapper since you’re not really taking me in as a hostage with your iron grip, Miss Purple Gorilla. I came along with you on my own accord so there’s no reason to really blame you! …But really, when do you plan on letting me go? Are you that lonely to keep clinging onto me? It would be cute with someone else, but you’re honestly hurting me. I think my entire arm fell asleep for the many hours we’ve sat here and I hope you realize that we’re not of the same species, so this type of relationship won’t really work between us. There are other gorillas out there, waiting for you to hold onto them as if Armageddon was on its way, so I would appreciate it if you would just. let. me. GO!-So, you actually did let go once I cleared things up, but why do I sense a malicious atmosphere coming from you?
…On second thought, I don’t want to know. I’m just going to run and hope you don’t chase after me.

Character: Aso Megumi
Series: Kamen Rider Kiva
Character Age: 21
Canon: Kamen Rider Kiva spans two different years, 1986 and 2008. In 1986, Kurenai Otoya and Aso Yuri fight against Fangire, vampire-like monsters that live off of life energy. In 2008, Otoya's son Wataru and Yuri's daughter Megumi continue the same fight. Existing in both times, the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization leads the battle against the monsters, utilizing Fangire Hunters to seek them out. Like her mother in the past, Aso Megumi works as a Fangire Hunter, using her day job as a fashion model for cover.
One of Megumi's greatest talents is the ability to strike fear into the hearts of the timid with her forceful personality and inability to respect personal bubbles. Don't think about hiding! She will find you because without a doubt, she knows what's best for you. Even if you don't think so. With little to no hesitation, she launches herself into people's lives and into fights against Fangire. She refuses to be ignored, scoffs at quitting anything ever, and has more confidence in her pinky finger than most people have in their life. She rewards and re-energizes herself through her love of eating. Her passion and stubbornness may land her in trouble, but often help her persevere when otherwise she might falter.

I know I look terrific despite the several-hour hike through this wonderland known as the most bug-infested, muggiest, and miserable swamp ever. Hey, don't think that I'm complaining. I'm saying that you picked the right person for the photoshoot! And I admire your taste. This dress you picked out for the shoot is very pretty -- No, no, don't touch the clothes I came in. They can stay there! I look good no matter where we are and I smile pretty and you get to take very fashionable photos in a place with unique scenery. And men dressed in purple gorilla suits... A beautiful young woman lost in an unwelcoming land, enchanting the slightly fantastical, yet realistic beasts that make it their home. No doubt that's the theme you're aiming for! Now you want me sitting on this tree branch -
On his back with the others surrounding me? My beauty has captured them and they make themselves my thralls! This is awkward -- No, I'm smiling! See, I'm still smiling. The fur is really realistic. Is this going to be okay? I've heard about overheating in those fur suits -- not that I've ever had to cover myself up like that -- and you're rather warm. Oh, you're used to dealing with the heat since you're a professional at... wearing a gorilla suit. I'll let you be then and do my job. Which is to keep on smiling! Would you like a charming one? A mysterious one? I can do them all. How about this one? I know I'm good. Thank you very much. I can make your clothes look good and smile through anything. Smile, smile, keep on smiling~ Ah, it's tiring smiling like this. I hope lunch is worth it. Miso soup and some rice and --
-- Something's poking me in the back like... Gross. I thought you said he was a professional. Get out of here! What sort of person are you? Rubbing yourself -- OH DISGUSTING. I can't even say it, but I'll let you know what I think! Did you like that? I'm going to do more than kick you where the sun -- Don't try to save him and allow him to limp away! Well, a punch in the face is what you get when you try to stop me. Stop being a crybaby about it. Really, beasts like you don't deserve to live! The rest of you are so shocked. I may have told a little lie because I never thought you were human. I wasn't fooled at all. I knew all of you were monsters when I took this job -- don't give me that look! It's easy to tell when the photographer has to keep putting his arm back on. It's too bad we couldn't have finished the photoshoot, but I'm sure you'll understand because in this world, some things shouldn't exist. And monsters that take advantage of poor, innocent girls would be one of them! God... has...
What are you doing with my clothes? Turn around and prepare to fight, you beast. All of you! Don't follow his lead -- I'm here to rid the world of your existence, not watch you rummage through the things I brought with me! That is not a hat and you're never going to fit into those shorts. For one your head is too big and that's not an attractive pose if you want to make it big. What am I saying? Would you pay attention? I'm supposed to be kicking your ass, not giving you fashion advice!

Character: Rolo Lamperouge
Series: Code Geass R2
Character Age: 16
Canon: Set in a world largely ruled by the Holy Britannian Empire, Code Geass is the story of former prince Lelouch who, after being disowned by his father following his mother's death, vows to crush the empire and create a peaceful world for his little sister to live in. He finally gets his chance upon meeting with a mysterious woman named C.C. who gives him the power to control people through his words: Geass. Having the means to finally set his plans into motion, Lelouch sets up a rebel faction under the name of Zero and declares war against Britannia. Although he manages to collect a number of victories, ultimately he is caught. A year later, with his memory completely rewritten, he's living the life of a normal student under the eye of Britannia.
Rolo enters the story as a Britannian spy whose mission is to disguise himself as Lelouch's younger brother in order to monitor him and eventually kill him should he ever regain his memories as Zero. While in disguise Rolo appears as a shy, withdrawn boy who has a hard time socializing; he's quiet, reserved, and is a bit of a doormat: it's easy to drag him along in whatever activity. In reality he isn't exactly as innocent as he might look. Always focused on his mission, Rolo is rather cold and is quick to eliminate any obstacle that stands in his way, even if it means killing. A trained assassin since childhood, he's very good at what he does, especially considering he has the added benefit of his Geass which gives him the ability to stop people's perception of time. Confident in his abilities and worth as a soldier, he can come off as arrogant and cocky at times. Having never known what it's like to have a family, Rolo came to genuinely care for Lelouch during the year he spent posing as his brother, eventually joining his side. In the end, all he wishes for is a brighter future with him.
Sample Post:
Camp Fuck You Die, Louisiana, United States. According to the data Brother sent me, it's been established that the owner of this place is a woman who goes by the name of Elizabeth Sayre. The exact age is unknown and there are no pictures of her available-- furthermore, descriptions of her may vary from person to person... I see, so this woman must be talented in disguising herself. A spy, maybe? At the very least, in order to be able to pull something like this she must have some strong connections. No common person could turn regular plants such as tomatoes into fire-throwing weapons. In addition to that, traps called "Plot Holes" seems to be hidden in the ground; falling into one should be avoided at all costs. It's hard to believe a spy would go through the trouble of setting up a camp like this just to find her lover's murderer, however. Such a thing would be a waste of time, wouldn't it? Either that story is fake, or I still haven't discovered everything I need to know about this.
According to this map, the United States seem to be located in Britannia's territories... Is "Louisiana" a rebel group? It's located in the mainland, so it's not very likely. Plus, I haven't heard of any irregular activities from that place. Interrogating the camp staffers for more information might be the best course of action, and eliminating them before they'll have the chance to contact any others is also necessary. Until then, it's important to be careful about the wild life here.
So far, I have had encounters with creatures that could be called zombies, as well as toucans capable of reading human thoughts and talking directly into someone's mind; taking that into consideration, it's more likely that this is some sort of experiment site after all. It seems that at least the toucans are useful enough to get information out of them, and if they are to be believed, there is also a "Tentacle Monster" hiding in the lake. Things such as monsters don't really exist, do they..? Since it seems the lake is radioactive, it's likely that one of the animals who lived in there has mutated. It's likely that just like the toucans and a number of things here, the Monster has some sort of abilities; something like control over the water, maybe? It doesn't seem believable, but anything should be expected.
Most of these creatures don't look like they're able to organize themselves-- someone must be controlling them. Since they seem to be dangerous, taking care of them is definitely important. However, killing each one of them would take too much time. Considering she must be the one controlling them, finding out where the director is hiding and killing her should be the most efficient method. Still, meeting up with Brother first has higher priority, especially if he risks being experimented on. He should be fine, but his power might not work against those creatures. Especially that tentacle monster; would he be able to fight it by himself?

Character: Acheron "Ash" Parthenopaeus/Apostolos
Series: The Dark Hunters series by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Character Age: Approx. eleven thousand years old, looks 21
Canon: Once upon a time, the Greek God Apollo decided to create his own race, called Apollites, intending for them to be superior to humanity. But when a handful of the Apollites killed his mistress and his son, Apollo cursed them--they can't come out in the sun, they need to drink blood in order to survive, and they will all die on their 27th birthdays. Taking pity on them, another goddess told them that they can survive beyond that birthday: kill humans and take their souls. hey are now known as either Daimons or vampires, and are hunted down by the immortal Dark Hunters, warriors who have sold their souls to Artemis for an act of vengeance against those who caused them to die, and are thereafter bound to protect mankind.
Acheron, better known as Ash, is the mentor and unofficial leader of the Dark Hunters. He is known for his eccentricity and idiosyncrasies, his sarcastic tongue and an intimidating aura. Underneath the many layers of attitude, Ash is a decent and sensitive guy, but he tries not to let that become well-known. He has a lot of secrets, starting with the small but crucial fact that he is not actually a Dark Hunter himself. He's one of the last of the gods of Atlantis, and is said to be the Final Fate, with the powers of ultimate destruction and cursed to end the universe. Fortunately for the universe, Ash has no interest in making innocent people suffer, and isn't terribly keen on ending it.
Besides, if the universe ends right now, he can't play the next Resident Evil game.

Has anyone ever told you guys that you have a serious undead problem? I haven't seen this many walking, talking former corpses since... yesterday, actually, but at least they were better conversationalists than your guys here. Debatably, in some cases, but "screw you, Ash" still beats the moaning and groaning I'm getting every time I try to make a witty quip. Seriously, they weren't that bad. Like this one: "You guys need to learn to clean up after yourselves when you go out to eat--or didn't anyone ever tell you that a mind is a terrible thing to waste?" I thought it was pretty funny. You know, some people just don't have any sense of humour. ...Look, the point is, it looks like you could use some serious pest control around here. That's where I come in. Zombies aren't my usual gig, but I'm pretty sure I can make an exception for the Braaaaain-less Brigade over here.
First things first. These shotguns you have here? Sorry, but we're not talking about "Night of the Living Dead" here. Unless your boys are different from just about every single non-human creature feature I've ever met, they aren't going to do a damned thing except piss them off. Well, that and give you a head start in running the hell away. That may be the best choice for some of you, especially if your only powers involve sparkling in the sunlight or something else that's equally useless. Personally, I prefer a more hands-on approach to fighting, anyhow. This should work particularly well when their hands happen to be off to the side and about five feet away, like that guy over there. What can I say, I'm a big fan of irony (of the non-Alanis Morisette variety only, if you please). Fending off most things is all about going with what you've got, and it's twice as handy for you if they're handless.
Normally, I'd say that beheading will take care of just about anything, but somehow, I'm not entirely convinced that crossing the line between figuratively and literally losing their heads would mean all that much to a determined zombie. You're probably going to want to go with the "total dismemberment" route. Yeah, I know that it means a little more work, but I think it's worth it when their pieces mean peace for everyone else. Now, I've never actually tried chainsaws myself, but if you want to go the "Army of Darkness" route for your dismembering needs, who's to say it won't work out?
Well, we could sit around talking about survival strategies all day, but in the end, that's not really gonna help much of anything. So instead, why don't we just get straight to work? With any luck, this will all be dealt with in enough time for me to get some serious downtime with my XBox 360. Hey, you didn't think that your boys were the only hordes of the undead I'm after tonight, now did you?

Character: Riou
Series: Suikoden II
Character Age: 16
Canon: War can work in funny ways. One minute you're a soldier about to be sent home, next you're on the run for your life. Before you know it, you're the leader of an army on the opposite side to your childhood best friend.
That particular story belongs to Riou. Even though he is almost forced into this awkward position he fights with determination, unwilling to let those who trust in him down, despite his sister Nanami being strongly against it. He often jumps into situations without thinking them through entirely, missing out key details. Though he is naive and somewhat oblivious, his kindness helps him in his duty of recruiting people (or creatures, such as the giant octopus Abizboah) for the army.
Note: Riou is taken from after the good ending of the game.

There you go, good as new! It took a while, but at least we found it. I'm not sure how you managed to lose your head in a tree but-- Someone stole it? I guess that would be upsetting, but try not to fall apart, okay? Wait, why are you angry? Oh, sorry. I can see why that would be insulting seeing as you're... well, not altogether to begin with. I'll make sure to be more careful with what I say.
...Anyway, I think it's about time I went back. My friends will wonder where I am and Nanami will start making a fuss when she finds out I'm gone, so... oh, so you say you need me to help with something else? Some kind of monster in the lake? I’m not really sure what you mean by "noncon", but if it’s that much of a problem for you and you think it's something I can deal with, I'll try to give you a hand. Umm... no, not like that. I'm sorry, you took that the wrong way. My hand doesn’t detach like yours does. So could you um... let go please? That kinda hurts.
Oh wow, so this is the lake? It's so green it's glowing! I've never seen anything like it before. I wonder what makes it that bright? And it's huge too, it'll take a while to find the lake monster in thi- WOAH!
These tentacles are sooo big! Wait, are you Marcy? You remind me of someone... or err... something. Are you related to Abizboah? It's been a while since I last saw him and his family, I'm glad to hear they're doing okay. You know, I was asked to get rid of you, but you don’t seem so bad. Maybe a little, umm... too friendly at first, looking at how you picked me up. Oh, you say you want to "spend some time getting to know each other"? Okay, that's fine with me. A sleepover sounds fun too. Should we go?

Character: Jowy
Series: Suikoden II
Character Age: 17
Canon: In a land plagued by war after war, two boys find themselves swept right into the middle of a maelstrom of politics and battle. Together they test the meaning of friendship, loyalty, betrayal, and destiny as they fight for all they hold dear.
Jowy is the hero Riou's childhood friend and companion. Whether it's training in martial arts, joining the army, or getting into trouble, they do nearly everything together. Being the adopted son of a noble family, Jowy is typically the more polite and proper one, if occasionally a little bit shy and sheltered. He tends to think things through and keep a level head in difficult situations, and is often planner of the pair. And while the events of the game leave him with his fair share of issues beneath the surface, at heart, Jowy has a kind, gentle nature, and is extremely devoted to his friends, especially Riou.
Note: Jowy is being taken from shortly post-game according, to the good ending.

Where in the world is this...? I didn't think I'd gone very far at all, but I don't remember the woods looking anything like this. And I think I definitely would've noticed if it was this swampy before. Or this smelly. And that lake over there, is that water glowing? That I know I would've noticed. I've a feeling we're not in Harmonia anymore...
Great, guess it looks like I must really be lost, then. I better try to find my way back quickly, before Riou and Nanami start wondering what happened. But which way should I.... Wait, I think I see someone. Thank goodness, maybe they can give me some directions. H-hey, you! Wait up!
Excuse me sir, but could you tell me where I am? I need to find out how to get back to-- wait, what did you say it's called? I really don't think I heard that right, so could you say it again? Something about a "Camp" something.... W-what kind of name is that?? I... you... it's bad enough some people say them, but p-people shouldn't name things with words like that!! What if there were children are around, or a lady? I can't possibly say something like that, even if it really is the name.
Um, well anyway, I guess I should just get going then. My friends are probably worried about me, so I should head back there before it gets any later... Could you tell me the way out from here? It can't be that far, I just got a little lost, so if you could let me know in which direction, at least, I think I can... w-what do you mean I can't leave? I have to! I promised Riou.... there has to be a way! I don't know much about magic barriers, but I've got to try, at least. If it was Riou he'd do the same thing for me, I'm sure.
Thanks for the warning anyway, but I think I'll have to go see for myself. Besides, if it's monsters or things you're worried about, I'll be just fine. Riou's a lot better at that sort of thing than me, but I know how to handle my staff, so I'll be all right. ...huh? What's so funny? Something about my staff...? I don't really get what's so special about that, anyone could do it if they practiced enough. Though I guess I could show you it if you wanted to see... No, I mean it. Look, it's just a quarterstaff, you see? So what was so funny about me using my staff, anyway?
