CHARACTER
Name: Celty Sturluson
Canon: Durarara!
Timeline: Returning with her memory of her previous visit intact, but she's now gotten to the end of the anime and has the gang war arc behind her. The novels continue the story from there.
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: N/A

Personality: There is an urban legend in Tokyo's district of Ikebukuro known as the "Black Rider". A black motorcycle that goes without lights on and makes odd noises, ridden by someone dressed in black, save for their yellow helmet. Some even refer to this legend as the "Headless Rider", claiming that the person riding the motorcycle is not human.

The truth of the matter is that this is all absolutely true. Celty is a Dullahan who has journeyed over from Ireland in search of her missing head. The motorcycle is actually her horse Shooter, disguised via her powers. In the rare occasions where it takes horse form, it has no head as well (this is more thematic, while hers has gone missing entirely). She has lost her memories of her time before losing her head, not knowing where it is, but having a vague sense of where it may be.

Since coming to Ikebukuro and making various connections there, she has taken on the roll of a courier and has acclimated well to her surroundings. She is also a member of a street gang known as The Dollars. Unable to communicate vocally, she does so by typing messages into her phone and showing it to people. The phone itself is a gift of the scientist whom she lives with, and considers it a treasured possession.

She spends a good deal of time online and in chat rooms. She enjoys watching scary movies and alien autopsy documentaries, but usually winds up scaring herself instead. The only thing she fears more than aliens are traffic cops. She also has a concern that splits her main reason for being in Ikebukuro: On the one hand she wants to get her head back, for fear that she may lose herself without it as she is having trouble remembering what it looked like, but at the same time is not sure who she may become if she got it back and had her memories restored.

CHARACTER
Character Name: Kankri Vantas
Canon: Homestuck
Timeline: At which point in the canon were they taken from?
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: Considering that we have no indication that guardians go to dream bubbles, and even if they did my Dave is taken from before he ever did, there’s no feasible way for them to have met in canon. Ergo, it wouldn’t be out of line to assume that they aren’t going to interact significantly in RC, either.

Personality: Kankri Vantas is a very independent boy. He feels the need to take care of himself and not accept help from anyone. In canon, this is a holdover from the Beforan ideal of “culling.” On Beforus, being off-spectrum would have meant that he was taken in by a troll of a higher caste and practically infantilized. His independence, therefore, comes from a need to individualize his identity, to make himself known.

In a similar vein, Kankri cannot stand being babied. On Beforus, being coddled would have been indicative of his adherence to the problematic nature of the hemospectrum. He reacts almost violently when Porrim does something as seemingly innocuous as move to wipe grubsauce from his face. His vocabulary and general attitude are almost snobbishly intelligent, a marker perhaps of his vehement desire to separate himself as an independent troll and one who does not need to be “culled”. He is quite smart, although he lacks anything resembling common sense. He writes long-winded diatribes for fun, and shares them with anyone who would stand still long enough to listen.

Part and parcel with his intelligence and independence is a haughtiness or self-righteousness that comes with such teenage hubris. He believes that he is the be-all end-all of any debate, and that anyone who argues with or disagrees with him needs to be debated until they relent and admit that they’re wrong. This self-righteous behaviour comes from the type of Tumblr user that he in canon is meant to make fun of, the Social Justice Warrior. On his pet subjects, he believes that he is simply the best there is. Not only is there a way to win an argument, but Kankri will find it by any means necessary. Usually, what actually happens is that his partner gets sick of his circuitous, rambling tl;dr and just walks away. This kind of behavior is what earned him the nickname “The Insufferable” in canon.

Going along with the Social Justice Warrior stereotype, Kankri is ultimately well-intentioned in his essays and diatribes. He wants to educate others on his own enlightened opinion, he is just oblivious as to how much he can come across as a sanctimonious asshole at times. He means well enough. It’s important to note that he is not a satire of the “die cis scum” SJW. His language and tone come across as ultimately respectful, overall, and indeed most of the reason why he is so long-winded and exhausting to talk to is because he goes so far not to step on anyone’s toes with his rambling. Another sign of his good intentions (and also a trademark of the type of SJW that he is meant to parody) are the trigger warnings that he uses and abuses. He warns not only for all potential triggers, but also many things that wouldn’t normally be considered triggering in the slightest. He makes up new, politically-correct terms to replace words he considers “pr96lematic,” in order to avoid being politically incorrect.

While he doesn’t intend to offend anyone, he ultimately has an ego himself, and it blinds him to how his Social Justice whiteknighting can be at least as problematic, if not moreso, than the behaviour of those he is trying to educate. This comes out in how he will ask his debate partner about their triggers in advance and make it clear that if they become triggered, he will stop and make every effort to accommodate them, but if the trigger in question is related to an important point of his debate, he won’t drop it entirely but will just make an effort to tiptoe around the subject and help them through the discussion. He has less empathy than he believes he does, which doesn’t, of course, make him a bad person. If anything, it just makes him a normal, flawed teenage boy. The problems arise because he believes himself to be much more than that. He is incredibly self-absorbed (again, like most teenagers, let alone teenage boys), and he believes that what he has to say is what is in everyone’s best interest.

It’s also important to bring attention to the fact that although they are biologically the same person, Kankri is not the same person as the Signless. Kankri is a socially impotent armchair crusader, essentially, which is excusable given that he is approximately 19 years old, 6 of which the players spent in an unwinnable session chasing their own tails. He tried to be the spiritual leader of his friends, but the major thing that he really lacks is genuine conviction. He could stand around pointing out all of the problems inherent in the system, but other than telling people what not to do or say, there was no real change he could affect. Signless, on the other hand, preserved some of his Seer powers post-Scratch, and he remembered slices of Beforus, which seemed like utopia in comparison to Alternia.

History: Like literally every other Sburb/Sgrub player in Homestuck, Kankri was a meteor baby. He was one of the first group of players of Sgrub, the pre-Scratch troll session. Very little is known about Beforus, the planet that was known in the post-Scratch universe as Alternia, but they had an interesting take on the idea of “culling”. On Alternia, as well as Beforus, those who were off-spectrum as well as lowbloods were culled. However, on Beforus, to be culled meant that you were taken under the guardianship of a highblood and tended to until the end of your shorter lifespan.

Kankri, being a mutantblood and making no real secret of it (he types in #FF0000, and wears a bright red sweater), would have also been taken in by this culture, which is one idea of where his prohibitively verbose social justice loquaciousness comes from. Being “culled” on Beforus, he would have been infantilized and looked down on as little more than a senseless child, no matter how old he really was. His social justice whiteknighting, therefore, can be read as a cry for attention.

Kankri was the Seer of Blood for his session of Sgrub, although it is implied that he never realized his full potential and, thus, never went god tier during the game. Seers, however, are a passive class, good at strategizing, and it has been speculated that the aspect of Blood could represent people or the populace, therefore making the realization of his power to be the ability to foresee how individuals would act in each of different opportunities, and guide situations to suit the best possible outcome.

He appointed himself the “spiritual leader” of the game, and attempted to spread his social justice doctrines among his fellow players and unite them under his philosophies. He also may have had an unrequited crush on the Pyrope of his session, Latula.

Eventually, the pre-Scratch trolls realized that theirs was a dead-end session, but they sat around and did nothing for three sweeps before making the decision to Scratch the session and start over. Since, they have been floating around in dreambubbles and watching the post-Scratch Alternia and its session unfold as it would. Kankri in particular appreciated the message of his post-Scratch incarnation, the Signless, but he found the means by which the Signless spread his message to be “pr96lematic” at best.

His typing quirk is to replace all “o”s with 9s and all “b”s with 6s, in obvious reference to the manacles that bound the Signless to the flogging jut, and also to the cancer symbol which was supposedly derived from said manacles by the devout followers of the Sufferer (much like Christians adopting the cross as their symbol). However, it’s unknown why this is his quirk. Perhaps there was more that he admired about his Post-Scratch incarnation than he lets on, or perhaps the Cancer symbol existed in the pre-Scratch universe in some form as well (although that is less likely, given that Aranea wears a Sufferer pendant and it is implicitly stated that she wears it out of admiration for the Signless’ teachings).

The first time that we meet Kankri is at the beginning of Act 6 Intermission 3. He is seen having cornered Karkat for presumably quite some time now, in the Derse/Prospit clusterfuck dreambubble section of the game. He talks so much that even the normally verbose Karkat has been struck dumb, although that may also have something to do with the mysterious pull that dancestors are implied to have over their post-Scratch counterparts (see: Kanaya being terrified of Porrim). Playing as Meenah (since it’s an interactive flash), you can eavesdrop on the “conversation” between Kankri and Karkat, which consists of reading a lot of bright red text.

There is also the option to “Be Kankri”, but when it is selected as Meenah, he brushes you off with the explanation that he is quite busy lecturing – debating with Karkat right now. If you go through the flash and “Be” Porrim, you can go back and actually talk to Kankri, prompting an argument between the two where Kankri gets quite sassy with her, poking at her concupiscent vacillations and essentially calling her the troll equivalent of a whore. Her concerns about female rights are brushed off in lieu of Kankri’s desire to focus on more “important” topics, which basically means topics that he is actually interested in.

Once again, the option to “Be Kankri” comes up, but once again he turns you away, this time with the suggestion that you try again with someone “a little radder”. This prompts the player to go “be” Latula, and then come back and talk to him. This time, his interaction is completely changed. He is not nearly as self-assured as he was when he was talking to Porrim or Meenah, and he seems totally off his game. This supports the idea that he might have had an unrequited crush on her that both his vow of chastity and her relationship with Mituna Captor prevented. When Latula requests to “Be Kankri,” he blusters and tries to argue for a moment, before finally relenting and letting player control switch to him.

At this point, the player can walk around as the red-sweatered little bitch, and may be tempted to see if it’s programmed so that you can throw him off of the Prospit towers. Such is, unfortunately, not the case, but you can go talk to Porrim again. Upon doing so, Kankri immediately launches into a self-righteous spiel about how rude it was for her to interrupt him while he was speaking with his “disciple”, and he becomes increasingly snippy with her. He outright explodes when she begins to mother him, snarling at her and wiping the grubsauce off of his face on his own because he’s a big boy and can do so.

After talking to Porrim, there’s little else to do with Kankri besides switch player control back to Meenah, after which Kankri becomes irrelevant to the rest of the flash. He appears very briefly in the other two “Meenahquest” flashes as well, although not even as a selectable character. He appears when Meenah is talking to Mituna, and both chides her for being insensitive to Mituna’s needs, but also tells Mituna that his need for a helmet carries unfortunate implications. He then later appears in order to chide Meenah (again), this time for being insensitive to Cronus’ humankin identity. However, it appears that he doesn’t necessarily believe Cronus either, as he makes a very backhanded statement about how terrible it would be if Cronus was lying about his identity to garner sympathy.

His appearance in Meenahquest3 is similarly limited, although he is mentioned at the end by Hussie wherein the joke is explained that he is a parody of terrible social justice bloggers, and that anyone who was asspained by his existence is exactly who he’s a parody of.

Strengths/Weaknesses:
Kankri’s main strength lies in his ability to not just turn every discussion back to himself and his own experiences, or to seemingly ignore all social cues that the person in question doesn’t want to be there, but his ability to hold a lecture – sorry, “discussion” for hours without stopping. He also has a fairly extensive vocabulary at his fingertips, and not just comprised of words that he more than likely made up. He has the ability to sound incredibly mature and well-spoken, while also sounding like a sanctimonious douchecanoe. His main weakness is that he does not know when or, likely, how to shut up. Ever. In addition, given his lack of real action toward his pet causes, aside from telling others to check their privilege, he comes across as an impotent armchair crusader. In addition, he would like to think that he has the patience of a saint as one of his strengths, but the truth is that he has a rather short fuse when it comes to being coddled, as evidenced by how quickly he blew up at Porrim in Meenahquest1 when they were alone.

Abilities: High among his list of abilities is his ability to talk for hours on end, seemingly without needing to pause for any reason, including breathing. While it’s uncertain what his abilities as the Seer of Blood entail, from what we’ve seen from the other Seers (Terezi and Rose) the class is one primarily geared toward strategy and toward foreseeing (as the name Seer would imply) possible outcomes and alternate timelines. In addition, little is known about the Blood power, but looking at the actions of the other Blood player (Karkat) it can be surmised that it has to do with unity and kinship among the session players, which would explain why he was never able to go god tier or to really begin to realize his powers until after the scratch.

Relationships to Canon Characters:
Signless: his post-scratch counterpart, while he approved of the Signless’ teachings, he approved less of his means of spreading them.
Karkat: his dancestor, and also attempted “disciple”
Cronus: one of the other Beforus trolls, Kankri is possibly one of the only ones who gives Cronus anything that could even resemble positive attention. While he defends Cronus’ right to identify however he chooses, he also castigates him for the disingenuous nature of lying about his identity for the sake of garnering sympathy.
Aranea: While they have not been shown interacting face to face, from Aranea’s explanation/summary of Kankri it’s understood that she likely feels sorry for him to some degree. This would make sense, given that they both trend toward the loquacious, and understand that it can be frustrating to go ignored and unheard.

CHARACTER
Name: Fix It Felix, Jr.
Canon: Disney’s Wreck It Ralph
Timeline: After the conclusion of the film
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: Not Applicable!

Personality:

Note: There are SPOILERS ahead!

“It’s my job to fix what Ralph has wrecked.”

Felix is the epitome of what gamers would call Lawful Good. He believes in the idea that most people are inherently good, though he’s borne witness to the fact that there are some who are easily driven mad with anger, hate, or jealousy. He’s known for being patient and kind to everyone he meets, and he’s always been willing to lend a helping hand, or, as it stands, golden hammer. To the tenants of the Niceland Apartment building, within the arcade game that bears his name, he’s their hero, and yet, ever humble. No matter how many pies or medals he receives, he has never once let it get to his head.

This simple reputation might lead one to believe that Felix is simple, just these things: wholesome, honest, law-abiding, and everything that his in-game opposition, Wreck It Ralph, is presumably not. But it goes far beyond that. Outside of the general wholesome goodness that Felix represents, he is also brave, heroic, and principled. He can be comical and free in his affections, but ever innocent. The very concept of doing something unkind of deceitful to anyone, even someone who might have wronged him, would not even occur to him.

“You…uh, wouldn’t happen to want to come in and have a slice, would you?”

While the Nicelanders shun Ralph and treat him like the garbage and mud he’s forced to live in, Felix, even if awkwardly, makes an attempt to treat him kindly. He bears no prejudice or ill will towards anyone, and sees it as his duty to correct any messes that Ralph makes.

He willingly leaves his own game and ventures first into the dangerous game world of Hero’s Duty, and then into the sugary sweet world of Sugar Rush to find Ralph, and proves himself to be a capable hero, and quite resourceful when thrust into situations he’s wholly unfamiliar with. Of course, he panicked before getting a hold of himself, so even a hero has his moments of weakness. He’s willing to risk injury to save himself and Sergeant Calhoun when mired in quicksand, and doesn’t even think twice in doing what must be done.

“Jiminy jaminity, look at that high definition! Your face….it’s amazing….”

He’s also a man who wears his heart on his sleeve, as he makes no attempt to hide his growing affection for Sergeant Calhoun, and even compliments her after a rather harrowing escape from quicksand. This does not end well, though, as Calhoun herself has her own tragic backstory to contend with first.

“Then, I met the most dynamite gal – she gives me the honeyglows something awful! But! She rebuffed my affections!”

He doesn’t have to suffer such heartache long – as it stands, he ends up happily married to Calhoun by the close of the film – it’s true that he really can fix anything, and in this case, a broken heart.

“No, I will not, Ralph! You don’t know what it’s like to be rejected and treated like a criminal!”

He has to suffer first heartache and then the frustration and anger of being wrongly imprisoned, and when he is finally reunited with Ralph, we get to see that anger and frustration manifest. He actually refuses to help Ralph at first, purely out of anger. He vents his anger freely after what he’s had to go through, and comes to realize that how he feels, rejected, treated like a criminal, is just how Ralph feels all the time. And he realizes that he and his old foe are not so dissimilar.

“No, I don’t have to do boo – excuse my potty mouth.”

He’s wholesome and a bit quirky in his use of colloquial language – his idea of swearing badly is the word “boo”, for which he apologizes. He’s old-fashioned in a charming way, and a gentleman who always removes his hat in polite company. He’s got a strong sense of responsibility and courage, and a desire to do good anywhere he goes.

CHARACTER
Name: Mike Chilton
Canon: Motorcity
Timeline: After season 1, episode 12 "Fearless"
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: N/A

Personality: Mike Chilton is the calm, amusing 17 year-old leader of the rebel group The Burners. He's very stubborn and would much rather do things his own way than to consider other paths of least resistance. He's courageous and one could say he's very lucky because, despite of all the insanity he gets himself into, he generally keeps things under control.

He's a pretty chill character, and very easy to talk to. He's nice and funny, and gets along with most anybody. Two of the few exceptions would be Abraham Kane, his sworn enemy, and the Duke of Detroit, a sad idiot who thinks his silly limos are anything when compared to Mutt the owner of a large piece of estate in Motorcity. He takes very little seriously, and besides his mission of taking down Kane and protecting Motorcity there's only a handful of things he truly worries about. One of them is the safety of his friends, as he once stated that if anything were to ever happen to any of them he wouldn't know what to do.

The fact that it took Mike so long to realize just how much of a monster Kane was shows that not only he is capable of great, blind trust on other people but also that he is by nature kind-hearted and, to a certain extent, naïve. This betrayal by Kane revealed how much of a rebellious streak he had in him, as he did not hesitate to abandon the system he stood for until then to join the underground city and immediately establish a rebel group dedicated to fighting Kane.

Mike lives by Motorcity's motto: Live fast, live free. His constant need for adventure shows us that he is, in lack of a better term, wired for action. He's always ready to jump into action at any sign of Kane's attacks on Motorcity, which is something that happens often and that Mike enjoys perhaps a little too much. During the tenth episode, the team experiences a few weeks of harmony in Motorcity, and unlike the rest of the Burners who are thankful for the break, Mike is driving himself crazy at the lack of action, and quickly jumps at any opportunity for a 'mission'. His rebellious and impulsive nature more often than not gets him and the rest of the Burners into trouble, since he acts without listening to what others tell him and without thinking of the possible consequences.

Like the rest of the Burners, Mike owns a car, which he uses in his fight against Kane, not only as a means of transportation and escape but also as a weapon. Her name's Mutt and yes, he refers to her as a 'she', and often calls her 'girl'. He's a good driver, albeit a bit reckless and, as expected, enjoys very high speeds and the most extreme pathways. He will take immense pleasure out of driving off broken bridges, jump off cliffs and God knows what else - Chuck could probably make a list of all the insane rides they've been on. Mike's a textbook adrenaline junkie, he loves the feeling of his heart beating faster when making a turn at hundreds of miles per hour, or being in the dead center of a storm - something like that actually happens during the third episode.

Though rash and hot-headed, he's trustworthy and extremely reliable. On many occasions it is shown that no matter how insane his plan, the Burners will follow him wherever. Even Chuck, who has a number of phobias and often suffers from panic attacks yet still manages to sit next to Mike while he's driving, trusts him in the most terrifying situations. Mutt's passenger seat is equipped with a safety eject system but it's not used that often REALLY NOT THAT OFTEN, as Chuck trusts Mike to not get them killed. (That's actually really funny.) On a more personal level rather than as a leader, he is a good friend who can keep a secret, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, and who will do what he can to help his friends with anything at all.

If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: okay so technically Billy is from a marvel verse. Technically Tony is taken from the movie verse and wouldn't even know who Billy is. And for Billy? After certain run ins with Tony and Steve, he has no real desire to approach Iron Man at all. He'd be more interested in Loki (or Thor if we ever get one) given the fact that they weren't jerks to him, and he was going with the code name 'Asgardian' at the start, after all. So yes, Tony isn't one of his favorite people, and Billy isn't even on Tony's radar.

CHARACTER

Canon: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
Timeline: post season 3 episode 2
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: n/a

Personality: Rarity is... well, a rarity (and yes, the pun is completely intended, you're welcome.) At first glance she can be mistaken as a snob, someone who only care for looks and fashion. It's true that fashion is her life, her... passion, if you will. She runs a little boutique in Ponyville and she specializes in making clothing and accessories for the other ponies. It's her dream to one day be a famous fashion designer and to be recognized by her peers of the trade. She loves everything beautiful and is a sucker for jewels and all things shiny.

But that's just a small part of who she is. Underneath the glitz and the glamour is a caring, dutiful and generous friend. There is a reason her element is generosity, after all. There are many ways that show her generosity, one of the stronger moments of this would be in the pilot episode. Upon reaching a violent river then notice the cause of the water's temper is in actuality a tantruming sea serpent, his moustache uneven and this ruining his look. Rarity takes sympathy with him and ends up cutting off her own beautiful tail, weaving it into the ends of the ruined half of his moustache, so he can calm down and accept his look again. Coming from a pony like Rarity (who loathes getting wet/ruining her mane et all) it was a very big deal and showed her strength of character.

Being the type of pony she is she can be seen as fussy. It's one of the reasons why she clashes with fellow pony and friend, Apple Jack, so often. She is very much a priss little pony, polite to a fault and always minding her manners. But that doesn't mean she's weak. The others often believe she cannot take care of herself, but what she lacks in physical abilities she makes up for with force of will and a clever tongue.

Graverobber comes from a post-apocalyptic world that fell under attack of an organ failure epidemic that claimed the life of millions. In the midst of this chaos, a company called GeneCo emerges; GeneCo provides organ transplant and financing, although it comes with a risk: those who cannot pay their debt will have their organs revoked by the company’s Repo Men.
With this, a new trend emerged: plastic surgery becomes a fashion statement and many indulge in this to extremes, which can be verified through some of the examples of characters in the movie, such as Amber Sweet or Pavi Largo, daughter and son of the head of GeneCo, Roti Largo.
With all of this, GeneCo also creates Zydrate, a powerful (and addictive) painkiller. Throughout the scenes of the movie, the control of Zydrate usage is heavily mentioned, such as quotes like “Ask a Gentern if Zydrate is right for you.” airing through the city where the story takes place, helping the watcher realize how much of a problem Zydrate use and abuse is in storyverse. This is further proven when it’s acknowledged the existence of a Black Market, grave-robbers sell a cheap version of Zydrate, extracted from the millions of dead bodies that can be found in massive graves and cemeteries around the city.

Graverobber, as his nickname entails, indulges in those less-than-legal acts. He illegally gathers and sells Zydrate, and seems to be quite known in his area, as we can assume by the scenes during “Zydrate Anatomy”.
He goes about his “occupation” with an almost carefree demeanor, despite the fatal risks. We can observe, during “21st Century Cure” how he goes about grave robbing and Zydrate gathering in the most casual manner, despite Shilo’s presence and the nearing officers. He seems almost amused by this, going as far as being purposely loud (such as screaming “graves”) to attract the attention of the armed officers.

Although fitting in this environment, Graverobber has a more philosophical point of view than most of the characters in the show. He seems to be rather critical of the current lifestyle, seeing it as fickle and shallow, as he expresses during “21st Century Cure”. He doesn’t seem to agree with the surgery trend, but that doesn’t keep him from profiting from it and from people’s weaknesses and vices (such as Zydrate addiction). He also criticizes needless grudges, such as the situation between Rotti and Nathan, expressed during “Epitaph”. He presents his views on the inevitability of death and the how certain situations should be deemed unnecessary, leaving the viewer to construct their own critical opinions according to the situations in plot.


Graverobber can then be summarized as a neutral, and certainly self-servicing character. He follows his views as a third party of sorts, mentally distancing himself somewhat from the events around him to form his own opinions, which he is not shy to express.

Despite his critical personality, Graverobber still manages to make some sort of connection with other characters, though they usually seem to imply some sort of gain by his part. For example: his relationship with Amber Sweet, aforementioned daughter of the head of GeneCO, aspiring singer/performer, face of the Zydrate Support Network, as well as, ironically, a Zydrate addict. Although Graverobber shows some obvious animosity towards Amber, during “Zydrate Anatomy”, “Can’t Get It Up If The Girl’s Breathing” (deleted scene) and “At The Opera Tonight” (going as far as hiding in a dumpster to avoid her), he seems to be her recurrent dealer, as well as sexual partner ( hinted through their body language in “Zydrate Anatomy” and further proved during “Can’t Get It Up If The Girl’s Breathing” and “Come Up And Try My New Parts”, both scenes deleted from the original movie.).It goes to show that Graverobber, as much of a critic as he might be, indulges in such situations as sexual gratification and monetary gain, possibly fed by his own bleak view of the frivolity in most things in life.

He might sometimes break this streak (although not by much), as is seen in his interactions with Shilo. Having gotten her caught by GeneCo agents and in the claws of Roti Largo, he still returns to save her and safely get her back home. He, however, takes a detour through alley populated by Zydrate addicts, where the events of “Zydrate Anatomy” take place, but with the purpose of enlightening her on the existence of Zydrate, Amber’s addiction, as well as explain to her Mag’s situation. When the alarms sound, he finally does help Shilo safely escape and find her way home, says his goodbyes with an almost gentleman-like gesture. He might have had his attention peeked by Shilo’s naivety, but it is unclear if his actions were fueled by other motives or not. It is to note, however, his somewhat different demeanor with a more innocent character.

In conclusion. Graverobber is one to not take sides. He forms his own opinions and views, more easily acting as someone else’s unrequited guide than to follow outward influences, although his critical point of view might not allow him to do so. Due to his own self-distancing, his actions might seem a bit odd to other parties, which will end up fueling his own amusement through observing the various reactions. He is an observer, a critic, one who enjoys his pleasures, and neither a leader nor a follower, but one who makes his own path.

CHARACTER
Name: Sgt. Tamora Jean Calhoun
Canon: Wreck-It-Ralph
Timeline: After the film’s plot. [after she is married to Felix]
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: N/A
SPOILERS AHEAD!!


Personality: The first thing you notice about Sgt. Calhoun is her intensity. She is not a laid back woman and she makes that very clear from the moment you meet her. Her tone of voice is always on the aggressive side, while not being full on cruel. Her tone of voice is loud, brash, nearly yelling at some points. Her first words in the film are a condescending pep talk to her soldiers before beginning a battle against the Cy-bugs.

“All right, not listen up because I am only going to say this once. Fear is a four letter word ladies. You want to go pee-pee in your big-boy slacks. Keep it to yourself.”

This theme demonstrates a certain sass about her while still showing her seriousness. She is dedicated to her cause [fighting cy-bugs] and demands anyone under her command to follow that. Her authority is unquestioned in her squad despite the fact that Sgt. Calhoun is by far the smallest human character in her game. Her size doesn’t hurt her much, her word is law in her squad and she gets absolute obedience or else she is not afraid to whack it into someone [example being when she mistook Ralph for Markowski and clocked him with her helmet for disobeying the first rule of Hero’s Duty] The discrepancy in size and her unquestioned control over her soldiers implies she is an unrivaled fighter.

She approaches her ongoing mission to kill cy-bugs with absolute responsibility, in fact it could be said that she approaches life that way. She never approaches anything half-heartedly. She is in or she is out and either way she is dedicated to her choice 100%.
She insisted to Felix on first meeting that “nothing gets past me” when he came looking for the runaway Ralph. But once she was proven wrong and realized a cy-bug had escaped with Ralph into Sugar Rush, Calhoun went after it without a second thought. It was simply her duty to go after and destroy the bug before it killed a game full of strangers and eventually the whole power strip’s worth of games. She takes her role as a soldier seriously, from referring to Felix as “Civilian” to forbidding him to join her at first on her mission to kill the cy-bug in Sugar Rush.

“Like fun you are, short stack. You die outside your game you don’t regenerate.”

From the get-go in the story she is all-business and never loses sight of her goal. When Ralph was causing a mess in Hero’s Duty disguised as Markowski she continued to interact with the player after getting Ralph back in formation, she never let the game itself come to a halt.

“Markowski! Back in formation!! [to First Person Shooter]... Alright the kitten whispers and tickle fights stop NOW. The entrance to the lab is straight ahead.”

This can also be a bit of a downfall in that Calhoun focuses ONLY on her goal. She gets a bit of tunnel vision. Her journey to find the Cy-Bug in Sugar Rush was her mission and she really didn’t care what happened to Ralph, the other “survivor” in the meantime. This isn’t to say she is a cold person, she is just very focused and disciplined. On the other hand she was hesitant to continue hitting Felix to the point of injury even though it was what she had to do to encourage the Laffy Taffy down so they could escape the Nesquick sand. It took Felix demanding her to hit him, claiming that the arcade was counting on them to get through this and capture the cy-bug. Once he appealed to her she had little problem. She understands that if she fails her duties, it will cost lives as it has before. The game establishes that she lost her would-be husband at the altar on their wedding day to a cy-bug attack. It was the one day she failed to do a perimeter check.

In her brief flashback and in her brief moments being courted by Felix, she is shown to be softer and more vulnerable. She smiles, she has softer light on her, she appears more warm and open to being charmed. [She breaks the stereotypical mold and kisses Felix back at the end too!] We see her on dates with Brad, her would-be husband and she gets “goo goo eyes” for Felix after he lifts her effortlessly from the Nesquick Sand. Calhoun is not a complete hard-core soldier but she had learned the pain of failing those you love. She is very professional and puts her business first but she is very open to having a personal life too.

CHARACTER
Name: Feferi Peixes
Canon: Homestuck
Timeline: After talking to Jade, post-death
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: n/a

Personality: Excitable. Ambitious. A little daft. Even among trolls, Feferi is one of the most unique alien fish-princesses you could meet, and if you do meet one with more spunk and less common sense, then you're quite the unfortunate soul.

As Heiress to the Alternian empire, Feferi lacks all the cruelty and conniving of her predecessor and in their place has a great deal of compassion and a great lack of common sense. If there is one thing that she has going for her, it's that she cares a great deal about her friends, her race, and generally all the living beings around her. Among the many future plans she has for her rule as Empress, many of them center around improving the general quality of life for trollkind. When she dreams, she dreams big, and complete social reform is at the top of her list of Things To-Do. Not only that, but she loves animals, running a sort of makeshift aquatic wildlife refuge out of her undersea castle, where she takes the wildlife she finds and nurses them back to health, regardless of whether they need said nursing.

Optimistic to a fault, Feferi possesses a great deal of confidence. Fretting about the future is not something she is inclined to do. She lives very much in the present, and takes a positive outlook to most situations. Her way of living is to "just do it" if it seems like the right thing to do and there are no obvious downsides to it-- and rarely does she see the downsides to things. This outlook has the unfortunate effect of contributing to a distinct lack of personal space and privacy that, while not malicious, can be off-putting. She will gladly share someone else's feelings in confidence, simply because she fails to realize that they may not want her sharing, when her intention is really just to help. Her heart is usually in the right place, but her head stays floating somewhere in the briny deep.

Despite her royal standing, she is anything but decorous. Her manners and mannerisms are offhand and frank, bordering on rude and even condescending at times, although she is not exactly cruel hearted, and her intentions are generally good. And then there are the fish puns. She makes them frequently, whether or not the situation is particularly appropriate to be making them. Everyday chatter? Of course! Dumping your best friend? Definitely! The faith she places in those around her, while admirable in the face of many of the challenges she comes up against eventually when she does enter Sgrub, can keep her from really analyzing a situation before making a call. Her decisions can be poorly thought out, and she can be blind to the gravity of a situation, unless the evidence to the contrary is laid out plainly for her. Even so, her belligerence in matters pertaining to her friends is not all-consuming. She eventually shows the capacity to sober up and realize when she needs to be serious, but only after a great deal of evidence is presented otherwise. This same recklessness can make her come across as fearless, although she doesn't know what dangers may really lie ahead.

It should be no surprise that with that much ambition, Feferi has a certain sort of... enthusiasm to her demeanor. Which is to say that she is constantly excited. Always and forever. There is absolutely no bounds to her energy, and in fitting with her positive outlook on life, she just finds everything ------EXCITING! And why aren't you excited with her? Even when faced with the destruction of her planet, most of her race, and her parent-type guardian, she still manages to find something to be -EXCIT-----ED about. She finds it difficult to contain herself at times, and the highest point of her excitement is expressed mainly in "glubs" (presumably a unique sound made only by other sea-dwelling trolls, like her) and emphatic additions to her text-speak.

Third Person: (recycled from [community profile] theposthumans application)

Feferi would never get out of the labs if she kept stopping to look at everything. An unending curiosity had overcome her-- after all, this was a new and exicting development! An alternate reality! How novel! But it was nothing new or world-shattering. She wasn’t in the Veil anymore, that was for sure, and this was nothing that they had foreseen. It didn’t occur to her to be concerned about whether her friends were hurt, or how this would affect the timelines. Why bother? For one, she was alright. It was unforeseeable that even if her friends were in the same situation, that they would be any more hurt than they already were!

Furthermore, she was here now, and there wasn't much to be done about that, aside from time manipulation. But she was the Witch of Life, not the Witch of Time. It was what it was, and nothing more.

At some point, she would eventually find her way outside, after more than a fair share of dawdling and awing at the strange and stark environment. Partially distracted by fussing with the new belongings she'd picked up and dragged with her in a bundle in her arms, she noticed first the warmth on her arms, then second the light cast on the ground, and as her gaze traveled upwards--

Sunlight!

She had only seen it once or twice on Alternia. The sunlight was nearly unbearable there, and she had very few reasons to come up to the surface during the day. But it was unmistakable for what it was. A brief moment of precaution gave way to a sense of adventure. One foot sought out the bare ground in front of her, tentatively moving the rest of her body into the light so that her shadow cast across the ground, and for the first time in a long while, she felt what it was like to stand in broad daylight.

It was thrilling and a little bit illicit all at the same time, like she had done something she was not really supposed to. Giggling to no one but herself (and a few glubs escaping of their own accord) Something at the back of her mind was still a little anxious about it, that much was ingrained in her mind, but she wasn't about to let it stop her. Still, she stopped underneath the shade of a nearby tree as she planned her next move. This was all a little new, and frankly a little confusing. More information was in order, naturally. There were strange buildings! And a strange new landscape! And all sorts of wonderful things to discover, she was quite sure! And who knew? Her friends might be here too! Especially if this had anything to do with the game, which she suspected it might. Most strange things in her life tended to have some sort of tie back to Sgrub after all. That was just the status quo, and it had failed to bother her yet. It wasn't about to slow her down.

She failed, however, to fret too very much over the whole ordeal. It wasn't her style, and furthermore, it wasn’t really going to get anything done. Honestly, it was a lot of unnecessary fuss for something that couldn’t be changed; this was the here and now and everything else was the there and then. But there was a subtle difference between not getting worked up and not caring at all. If they were here, undoubtedly her friends would find her, or she would find them, whichever took place first, and in the process of searching she could get the urge to explore out of the way.

That got the prerequisite information-gathering out the way as well. There were very few other things to do when one landed in an irascible and strange alternate universe. This sort of multitasking made a great deal of sense at the moment. With no idea where to start looking for one thing or another, whether it was facts or friends, searching wherever caught her fancy was just about as good a bet as any. She did venture, though, that as far as her peers were concerned, wherever they were-- if they were here—they would probably not be out sunbathing. All the same, the interior of this new landscape intrigued her just as much as the exterior. It was something to keep in mind, a minute bit of focus to the aimless exploration.

There was no need to be intentionally hasty, either. With an attention span that flirted with something new every moment, she didn’t have it in her to linger too long. Everything was interesting, but at the same time none of it enthralling enough (yet) to keep her tethered to one place very long.

Never mind, of course the potential dangers lurking around every corner. She could stand to deal with that if and when the time came.

CHARACTER

Canon: Axis Powers Hetalia
Timeline: In the late 19th century, during the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph I and Elisabeth of Austria. The cultural height of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
If playing another character from the same canon, how will you deal with this?: N/A

Personality:

As stated by Himaruya, Austria was born in 976 AD. This was the year that the Babenburgs came into power and unified the territories under the name that would eventually be Austria. As a child, he was close friends with Switzerland, and often harassed by Hungary and Prussia. Despite always being weak and easily defeated in his youth, he was tenacious and brave, and eventually was able to conquer Hungary and take his place as a growing empire. The great and beautiful Danube River flows through his veins, and the famed Austrian Alps are his backbone. His heart is Vienna, and his soul is the music of the centuries.

Throughout his history, Austria has been a world power of sorts, up into the 20th century when the Austro-Hungarian Empire finally fell. As an Empire, Austria was married to first Spain, by the marriage of Philip and Joanna in 1496, which brought the Spanish Empire under Hapsburg rule. This marriage proved lasting and powerful, and was not dissolved until 1700 when the War of Spanish Succession took place.

This was a political alliance at first, as most of Austria's marriages were, but he and Spain eventually were able to come to an agreement, and were quite a close couple during their long marriage. It would be France that dissolved their marriage, with the French Bourbon dynasty taking over in Spain. This divorce was painful for Austria as a person, and the fighting would eventually lead to the War of Austrian Succession as well, in which Austria lost territory to Prussia, and it would eventually lead itself to the Seven Years' War in which he would lose the Holy Roman Empire as well.

His marriage to Hungary began in 1867, and was tumultuous from the start. Revolts, dissent, and other unpleasant political struggles made the empire weak and unstable. However, it was during the 18th and 19th century that Austria's musical dynasty began. Vienna was the heart of the musical world, and the height of culture. Grand balls, sparkling waltzes by Strauss, the great Viennese Romantics, all soothed Austria's artistic soul. Music was his first mistress before all others, and his greatest love.

CHARACTER
Name: L Lawliet
Canon: Death Note
Timeline: Right as he dies - he will awake in RC living.
Personality: I got this.

Loner. Except for the assistance of Watari, L works alone. It works much better for him this way, as he is not social by nature - but he can have long conversations with someone if needed. He usually only talks business, though. He is very covert, keeping his true identity, his voice, and his face hidden from view - the only way to contact him is through his assistant, Watari. The way he speaks shows that he is intelligent, but he can be a bit blunt and uncaring unless he needs to persuade or manipulate someone, which gives evidence to show he doesn't interact with people all that much.

Arrogant. L has an ego on him, apparent in the way he's collected a few of his aliases. Two of them, Deneuve and Elraldo Coil, were taken from the second and third most famous and brilliant detectives as 'trophies' for defeating them intellectually when solving cases. L is also very childish and hates to lose, as he stated when comparing himself to Kira. He will likely not admit that he makes mistakes until they've been made - however, he would recover gracefully by such a fall from using the information gained from the blunder to collect further information, if possible. He may also later claim that it was part of his plan to mess up - and with that blank face, you can never tell if he means it or not.

Wammy. The only person that L trusts is one Quillsh Wammy, founder of Wammy's House for the Intellectually Gifted of England. Wammy, or Watari as others know him, provided orphans L Lawliet, Nate River, and Mihael Keel with a home. He is L's caretaker and guide, and is the only one with any way to directly contact him. L rigged the information system with all of the Kira case files so that, if he or Watari were to die, all of the data would be erased permanently. Without Mr. Wammy, none of L's work would be possible, and while he doesn't often show it, it was this man whom L went to for comfort for a nightmare about his own death in the anime.

Liar. L does not always tell the truth, and may leave pieces of information out if he feels it is necessary, no matter who he's working with. In his mind, the only people that require full information in a case are himself and Watari - while others are important, they are only pawns. L may also claim that he belives something has a low possibility when he is almost certain of it, especially when, but not limited to, times when people he doesn't trust or overly put faith in are nearby. L is a brilliant manipulator; he will decieve to get the advantage. This is shown when he keeps information from the police and the public about the broadcast he has inmate Lind L. Tailor make, calling it 'worldwide', when in reality, Tailor was posing as L, and the broadcast was only made in the Kanto region of Japan.

Intellect. L relies on logic, deductive reasoning, probability, skepticism, and experience to solve his cases. He's a genius, and a born tactition. While L's methods are unorthodox, and likely produced by a train of thought only he can keep up with, he gets the job done. These methods may not exactly fit into everyone's moral code, either; L will do anything to get a job done, which circles back to his ego and arrogance, pride. He only takes cases that he is interested in. In part of the Kira Case, L was willing to sacrifice the lives of multiple death row inmates just to test and see if the "13 Day" rule of the notebook was false or not. Some of his ideas are radical and insane, but there is, after all, a fine line between genius and insanity.

Eccentric. All geniuses must be ecccentric, and L is no exception. He sits hunched over, rarely sleeps, eats nothing but sweets, and doesn't care about his appearance, since he isn't seen often anyway. He claims that he eats so many sweets, yet remains underweight because using his brain so much burns all of his calories, so he doesn't need exercise. He claims to sit and walk hunched over because, if he doesn't, his analytical abilities will drop 40%; I believe that this is just because he is used to it, and other positions might make him uncomfortable. He also holds things very carefully, with as minimum contact as he possibly can. This likely comes from years of handling evidence, and also not wanting to leave any trace of himself behind.

Tedious. When going over a case, L takes time to listen and observe, absorbing every detail possible to come to the most logical and provable conclusion. He is always listening for hidden meanings within context, implications, reasons to suspect. As a strategist, it is not uncommon for him to be seeming to waste time, when in reality he is just waiting for something he believes will happen. He can use this tactic to test a suspect's patience, and to provide himself with stalling time (and thus thinking time). He waited for weeks on end to try and get a confession out of imprisoned Misa Amane and Light Yagami.

CHARACTER
Name: Henry Mills
Canon: Once Upon A Time
Timeline: Season 2 Episode 8 - Into the Deep

Personality:A lot of Henry's personality traits have been descended from what we know of his mother and his grandparents. The selflessness, putting other needs in front of his own and the faith that his actions are for the right reasons. Ever since Mary Margaret gave him the Once Upon a Time book, he has been claiming the entire populous of Storybrooke was under the curse described in the book and he spends all of time and energy trying to find a way to break it.

Despite his actions having bad consequences, he does what needs to be done to achieve his goals and doesn't care about the cost to himself. He steals Mary Margaret's credit card to find Emma and then to get to Boston and bring her back to Storybrooke. He misses days of school to make her understand about the curse and try and get her to help him break it. And he eats the cursed apple turnover just to make Emma believe he is real. All of which he does selflessly in the faith that what he is doing will have the results he hopes for.

After the curse is broken, he continues to have faith that Emma and Mary Margaret are safe and looking after each other in the Fairytale Land even if he needs a little convincing from David. Despite his outward appearance of bravery, he is still just a child and needs the reassurance and love of his family to help him get through rough spots - which there have been many both before the curse and after. He also has faith in Regina that she can change and be good, and this faith in her is just as important to her as it is to him.

The thing Henry wants most of all, is to be a hero. And he gets this chance when he can use his sleeping curse to get messages to Emma and Mary Margaret in the Fairytale Land. But this comes at the price of using magic given to him by Gold and he also sees Regina use magic. This magic is something he is very wary of as he has only seen the bad side to magic through the curse and the other acts Regina does after the curse is broken. This is why he asks Regina to promise not to use magic.

Henry's want to be a hero is dampened, however, by everyone around him treating him like a child. He may be one on the outside but he is strong and brave on the inside which he wants to show. Sadly, there is a fine line between bravery and stupidity and it almost gets himself killed not long after Emma decides to stay. He goes into the mine and gets trapped trying to find proof that his book is real. He believes that if people treated him more as an adult, then this might not have happened.

All in all, Henry may just be a child but he is very courageous and selfless and willing to do what is necessary to prove this and help anyone in trouble, especially those he loves.
