Character: Ickis
Series: Aaahh!!! Real Monsters
Character Age: Probably a teenager in monster years.
Canon: Monsters aren't born knowing the correct way to scare human beings. Much like we have to go to school to learn how to become productive adults, monsters must go to 'scare school' to learn how to properly terrify. They live in places like garbage dumps and travel around via our plumbing systems and try their best to remain elusive. Ickis is a student at 'Monster Academy' under the flamboyant and harsh teacher known as 'The Gromble'.

The little magenta monster isn't especially scary looking in comparison to many of his peers -- he often gets mistaken for a rabbit by humans due to his long ears, large feet, and small size. Prone to spazzing and a bit of a whiner (with the occasional bouts of quickly deflated arrogance), Ickis nevertheless has had his occasional moments of glory when under extreme pressure. When he is especially frightened or angry, he can inflate himself to a much larger size for the purposes of scaring. This does take a lot of energy though, and he doesn't do it very often.

Well if this wasn't a huge waste of time!

I was desperate! A monster down on his luck! All I asked was for fate to give me an itsy bitsy teenie weenie break and make this assignment easy on me -- but nooooooo! That's just too much to ask! I come here looking to scare a whole camp full of kids and what do I find? They've already GOT monsters! Everywhere! And they're really really really tall and ooooh please don't come towards me, don't come tow -- AHAHAHAHA hiiii again! May I say, sir, that you're looking especially putrid today? I looove the visible innards. They compliment your eyes -- erm, eye. Yes, yes... I know... 'braaaaaaaains'! You want to talk about brains? SURE! I looooove brains! Could talk about 'em all day long! Anything you want! Ahahaaaa please just don't stick me in your mouth again because that was wet and smelled like rotting meat and was not as pleasant as you'd think it would be with those descriptors... NO I'm not a 'bunny'! Erm, I mean if you could please... stop... calling me that Mr. Much-Bigger-Than-Me-Monster, sir? Maybe? I mean unless you REALLY really want to then ...

Eeeee! NOT THE MOUTH NOT THE MOUTH! For the love of garbage not the mouth! Look! Over there! Something fleeing! Something much tastier than me, I'm sure! Hahaha! Don't you think you should... you know... go chase that instea--

Oof! ... being dropped on my head so wasn't on my to-do list today. Ow.

Er, anyway. Don't get me wrong, this place isn't all bad. Lots of muck. Can't complain about the muck content. Could do without the huge snapping things trying to EAT ME at every turn but the atmosphere is nice. If I was on vacation it would be great! But I've got this really imporant assignment due in two da... wait, wait. How long have I been here again? Hmm, if yesterday was Tuesday and the day before that was Monday... uhm carry the seven... minus two...

AAAAH! Today! It was due TODAY! I'm dead when The Gromble gets a hold of me! I'm deader than dead! And he'll probably kill me a second time after the first JUST for the fun of it and--

Calm down, Ickis! Get yourself together! It's not that bad! Hahahaha! You just need to find a toilet! Then you'll be able to find your way back! There's gotta be a toilet around here somewhere, right? Humans loooooove their plumbing... AHA! There! That little house has a symbol on it! I'm pretty sure that means ... YES! TOILETS! Hahaha! THE MIGHTY AND OVERALL BRAVE ICKIS HAS DEFEATED THE HUMAN CAMP! AHAHAHA MINE IS A VICTORIOUS LAUGH! Now just to hop down the hole and...

... squishy. Really. R-really squishy and DARK.

This. Is not. The sewers.

Character: Merryweather Hargreaves
Series: Count Cain
Character Age: 10

Canon:
Count Cain is a Kaori Yuki manga, making it a rather complicated canon with just sliiiiightly psychotic happenings. Set in Victorian times, it centers around the charming and well-off Cain C. Hargreaves: an earl with a penchant for poison and mystery solving, his family issues and his ability to get himself involved in horrifying murderous plots.

Merryweather is Cain's half-sister, believed to be the daughter of Cain's father and a maid. Considering that she lived as a fortune teller on the streets before Cain took her in, it's little surprise that Merryweather ended up spunky and unafraid of standing up for people she cares for. Being part of the Hargreaves family often places her in danger (getting kidnapped, witnessing murders? Pfft! It happens!), but the 10-year-old copes with it surprisingly well, and continues to be strong because of the devotion between herself and her brother. Merryweather genuinely has a good heart and is sweet and polite unless provoked, but like a child, she can be impatient, naive and bratty. As much as she loves her brother, it doesn't stop her from getting annoyed with him every now and then and making him know exactly how she feels ( i.e. she tops him).

Merryweather is being apped from the end of volume 7 of Godchild. Oscar is someone who takes care of Merryweather when Big Bro's away. He's also topped by her. Permission has been granted for mentioning Cain in the app!

Sample Post:
I know I promised Big Brother not to wander off on my own. Technically, I didn't, because Oscar was with me... except now he's missing and I'm lost. ... Oops? It's not such a big deal, right? It's Big Brother's fault for leaving me at home for so long anyway! And I wasn't even trying to lose Oscar this time.

Hmmmph, I will eventually find my way back! Just give me some time, I can figure this out. Right after Madam Maybelline comes back and I finish my tea. I mean, it's not like I could say no to the old lady, especially since she looked so lonely and sick! She told me that her son got kidnapped by someone called Marcy and got "wanged in the yee". I don't know exactly what that means, but sounds a lot to me like her son abandoned her for his lover... and she doesn't realize it, the poor gentle dame. She's a little odd, but only a heartless person would turn down her invitation! I'm glad I can keep her company for at least awhile, since she looked so happy when I spoke to her. Though I don't know if she understands what I'm saying. When I asked her about her gray complexion, she kept repeating her name, saying (singing?) "It's Maybelline!" over and over again. Maybe she just wants someone to remember her.

I wonder where I am, though. I should have asked Madam Maybelline before she got up to get the tea. Fancy having tea here! It's a little strange, because this place doesn't really have the atmosphere for drinking tea. The surroundings aren't really what I consider pretty and the dancing men in purple are rather... uhm. C-could this be one of those parties Big Brother tells me I'm too young to attend? I-I think I might be beginning to see his point. But! Everyone has their quirks, right? If Madam Maybelline likes it here, I'll have tea with her here!

--oh, she's back with the tea. Thank you very much for the-- ah. Did... did you accidentally use water from the lake, Madam Maybelline? I'm not sure if I'm used to drinking such brightly coloured tea. I might say there's poison, but-- O-oh no, please don't cry, I didn't mean anything bad! How about-- you like singing, don't you? I'll sing you a nursery rhyme that I heard a toucan here singing! You mustn't cry, all right? I'd like to see a smile on your face. I'll start now:

Rub a dub dub,
Three men in a tub,
And who do you think they be?
The pirate, the ninja,
The suit-wearing mafia.
Keep them in, gay all three!

It's got a rather cute tune! Though the rhyming isn't very good. They say that some nursery rhymes actually have hidden meanings, but this one doesn't really make much sense, does it? Sometimes nursery rhymes are like that. I'm glad the three end up happy, though!

Character: Carlos Oliveira
Series: Resident Evil (game canon)
Age: 21

Canon: Resident Evil is that game about ZOMBIEEEES - and the shady conspiracies of Umbrella, the evil corporation responsible for the virus that created them. Said zombie outbreaks started in a later-destroyed town called Raccoon City. In the midst of the chaos of this biohazard outbreak, Umbrella sent in a team called the U.B.C.S., a special forces group with a mission to rescue surviving civilians. Carlos of the Delta team met up with our lovely protagonist and the mutant stalking her through the city.

Carlos is a generally laid back, kind hearted guy who doesn't fail to find the time to crack a joke or two despite being in a grave situation (even though he'd insist that foxy ladies loving his accent is a true fact~). He is a professional in the fields of weapons and vehicle operations, and as expected in the U.B.C.S., he's a brave mercenary with a clear mind and a strong sense of justice. He wouldn't think twice before jumping head-first into danger to save someone, occasionally reckless as it proves to be.

Sample Post:

M4A1 Assault Rifle and twenty-six rounds of ammunition: check. HK-P Grenade Launcher and six flame rounds: check. Okay, Carlos Oliveira of the U.B.C.S. Delta Platoon, Company A, reporting to the assigned isolated location in northeastern Louisiana.

You hear that, kids? You're gonna be rescued... once I figure out where the rest of my platoon disappeared to. I might have a fix on their location at coordinates "C-U-L8R-L00ZR," but there's nothing to worry about in the meantime. I'll make sure you all stay safe until they arrive. I've handled these zombies before, so I know what I'm dealing with. If all of you could just--

-- hey, are you people crazy?! What do you mean those things aren't anything to worry about? Try saying that when five of them have got you cornered, one wrong move and you're their next meal, literal finger sandwiches and all. You may have other threats here that are faster and stronger than they are, but that doesn't mean you should let your guards down. Believe me, I've dealt with more than just the un-dead, too.

But it looks like the virus has mutated in this place, and the monsters are starting to work together in organized groups. No matter what they tell you, do not listen to those toucans and do not follow your noses, because the only fruity goodness you're going to get if you do? Is their multicolored beaks pecking your eyes out. And that is not a good and healthy way to start off your day, you're not going to be jumping up and down and shouting hooray. They're speaking in rhyme, now. Great.

But you all still think you can handle it, huh? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt until you can prove it to me. A group of the zombies followed me in, so they should be catching up soon. I'll leave the taking care of them to you. I'll be standing right over here, though, in case you need someone to jump in and play the hero when you get in over your heads.

Character: Nekozawa Umehito
Series: Ouran High School Host Club
Character Age: 18
Canon: Haruhi Fujioka is your average scholarship student in a less-than-average school. Ouran is a place filled with rich kids, family problems and calculating moms, and it’s just Haruhi’s luck that she’s put herself in debt to the school’s host club, causing her to have to disguise herself as a boy in order to pay it back.

Nekozawa is the president of the Black Magic club at Ouran and obsessed with occult. Constantly wearing a black cloak with an eerie smile on his face and speaking in an ominous way (as represented by the eerie font used when he speaks), occasionally referring to Bereznoff instead of himself. Despite his nature, Nekozawa has a gentle and caring side to him, usually reserved for his little sister Kirimi, and is actually is a very handsome blonde under that cloak and wig of his. However, due to his “condition”, bright light harms him, and he will yell, cast curses and call you a murderer if you try to unveil him.

Oh, and also? He wears a cat hand puppet as well. This is Bereznoff. Bereznoff is the ultimate. Bereznoff owns your soul. Do not question Bereznoff.

Sample Post:

Fufufu... How exciting. When I received the invite to the “Camp beyond Frightening and Undermining Dreams”I never expected it to be so through. That isn’t to say, however, that it isn’t pleasing; even Bereznoff thinks so, and he can be quite the judge.

I have to commend you on your skill, Ms. Elizabeth. You must be quite the necromancer to raise and maintain such a large amount of zombies like this. And they’re so well done, too. Oozing and rotting, they even tried to attack me when I borrowed a few limbs... They gave me quite a chase! Perhaps they will be used as a sacrifice in today’s black mass... Maybe not; I’d love to see if they rise up again after collapsing so suddenly; preferably more grotesque than before...

Though, of course, if I continued about delightful this place is I’d likely get distracted, much like the victims nears the lake. There goes another one fufufu~~ If I stay I’d prefer better living accommodations. The cooks are superb, the rumors of Tuesday’s soup are chilling, and the Arts and Crafts hut will serve as the new Black Magic clubroom for now; which I’m sure there are no objections to. Yes? Of course...

I would like to address the issue about my cabin. The ones I room with are less of a problem, since I’m sure they will become followers of the darkness soon, but I would like to request the rooms to be less... pink. Perhaps you have misunderstood the usage of the dark arts in my club, because we do not classify pink as “another kind of evil”, as some of the residents seem to claim. However, a more urgent matter would be the amount of mirrors that have been placed near the windows reflecting a large amount of sunlight in. I’m aware that you are quite fond of the dead and killing the story about your spouse, for instance, is very curious indeed...~ though I’ve found that practicing the dark arts is preferable to do while alive rather than dead.

How would I know that, you ask? Bereznoff has his ways fufufu...

Character: Mokona Modoki
Series: Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRONiCLE
Character Age: Unknown

Canon: So what happens when CLAMP decides they want to recycle old characters? A series like Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRONiCLE happens, that's what! Tsubasa is about Sakura, the princess of Clow Country. Her memories have been scattered across numerous worlds in the form of feathers, and it's up to her, Syaoran, Kurogane, and Fay to find them before an evil wizard can fulfill his deepest wish. With magic, world-jumping, and more crossovers than you can shake a stick at, Tsubasa has a little bit of something for everyone.

But how do they do this "world-jumping", you ask? Well, that's where the white meat-bun comes in: Mokona is a small, bunny-like creature who was given to the group at the beginning of their journey so that they'd be able to cross worlds. But that's not all it can do; without it around, nobody would be able to understand each other, nor would they be able to find Sakura's feathers. Because you see, that's Mokona's most important ability: to sense if a feather is nearby. Friendly, energetic, and just downright cute, Mokona is an important part of the group. While playful and viewing the world like a child (though it's far from innocent), when it comes to its friends, Mokona will become serious if need be and do anything to help them.

As for what exactly it is . . . well. "Mokona is Mokona."

Sample Post:
Uwahhh~ This world is so interesting! Mokona's only been here for a little while and has already run into all sorts of funny things! You see, you see, the minute Mokona arrived, Mokona was greeted by a welcoming party! And they were very happy to see Mokona! But then they wanted Mokona to do things that weren't very easy to understand . . . and then they tried to grab Mokona! They said they needed a new fur hat to go with their new fashion line. So Mokona said KYAAA~ and had to leave! But Mokona thinks their suits were very pretty~

And now Mokona has run into someone just like Mokona! You say "kupo" a lot, so can Mokona call you Kupo? Yay! Mokona made a friend on this world! Kupo looks so lonely, so lonely~ standing over here all by himself. But it's such a nice day, even if it smells kind of funny . . . so Mokona thinks Kupo and Mokona should go on an adventure! Don't worry, it'll be a safe adventure! Mokona doesn't like dangerous things very much~ and Kupo can meet Mokona's friends too! Because you see, that's what the adventure is all about~ Kupo will come? Horray!

Okay, Mokona thinks we should go this way! It's hard to tell because it's very faint, but Mokona thinks she can sense her friends . . . wahhhh -- ! Mokona's arm doesn't bend that way~! Kupo doesn't have to tug so hard! Is everything okay? Kupo looked very scared for a moment! All Mokona can see is more people with pretty outfits . . .

Eh? Mokona doesn't understand. Kupo doesn't like dresses? Dresses can be very pretty! Mokona sometimes wears dresses -- uwah, don't talk so fast, Mokona can't understand you! Slow down, slow down~ . . . ehhh? Kupo says they're very dangerous? Uwahh~ Kupo's so nice for warning Mokona about them! Mokona will very careful in the future! We don't have to go that way if Kupo doesn't want to! We can go this way instead, it looks much better anyway~ Oh, oh, and the lake over there looks so pretty with that green glow! Let's go over there!

But Mokona still wants to know what's wrong with dresses . . .
