Character: Mirai no Trunks Briefs (Future Trunks, often called "Mirai Trunks")
Series: Dragonball Z
Character Age: 20 (born 766 AD in the DBZ universe)
Canon:
Mirai no Trunks, the half-Saiyajin, lavender-haired, blue-eyed son of Bulma Briefs and Vegeta (Toriyama creates his own crack, and he has no real grasp of the concept of "genetics") grew up in a post-apocalyptic world in which two cyborgs, #17 and #18, killed the strongest fighters in the world long ago and now wreak havoc across the Earth for their own enjoyment. Trunks’ mother, Bulma, has constructed a time machine over a period of twenty years, and sends Trunks back in time to give his idol Goku medicine to prevent his heart attack and to warn Goku and the others of the cyborgs three years before the attack so that they can destroy the cyborgs’ creator, Dr. Gero, before he creates #17 and #18.
Instead of heeding Trunks’ advice, however, Goku and Vegeta decide that fighting the cyborgs would be fun and train for the three years rather than take out yet another threat against the Earth before it can occur (their shounen idiocy will kill us all, I swear).
Three years pass, and the cyborgs appear - only it’s not #17 and #18. Basically, the situation is even worse because Saiyajin ≠ common sense, and Trunks shows back up, confused as to why he was still stuck in the cyborgs’ playground. Instead of yelling at the idiots Goku and the others, he stays in the past so that he can train and fight the latest threat, Cell. He also tries to bond with his father, but like most things that involve Vegeta co-operating, it fails.
At one point, Trunks is killed - which sends Vegeta into a frenzy (that does very little against Cell, but it’s the thought that counts) - but is later brought back by the Dragonballs. The Cell Games over, Earth safe, and Son Goku dead because Saiyajin are the stupidest race in the universe assured that his Ice Prince of Shounen Idiocy father, in his own special way, sortakindamaybe loves his son, Trunks heads back to his own time to kill the cyborgs and help slowly restore the Earth back to her pre-cyborg state.
Mirai no Trunks:
As Trunks’ father and all the other Z Senshi were killed in the Great Cyborg War! in the first attack, Trunks was raised by his mother, Bulma, and by Son Gohan, who was his mentor. Gohan taught him how to fight and gave Trunks his sword and it was Gohan’s death at the hands of the cyborgs that drove Trunks to listen to Evanescence and cry become a Super Saiyajin for the first time.
The Trunks from the future is a very polite, kind, and thoughtful young man; in otherwords, a Gohan clone. He’s also a very competent fighter who can fight with a sword, his ki, or his body. He’s quietly confident about his abilities, and while he doesn’t go around bragging about them, he doesn’t minimize them, either.
Whether it be from growing up with Gohan for a father older brother figure or growing up in a post-apocalyptic society fearing for his life everyday, Trunks is a serious, determined young man. His sense of humour, like most overly-polite characters, is often eclipsed by how easily his blushes and stutters. He often puts others before him, such as when his hid the true extent of his power because he didn’t want to shatter the remains of his father’s soul pride.
As I mentioned before, Trunks is very determined, and in many instances, he can best be described as goal-oriented. This is how he deals with enemies, too. His kindness completely evaporates when he decides that you are his enemy, and he doesn’t play with his prey. He has a goal, and that is to cut you up, bitch destroy you, so he is going to do just that.
And he loves his mother. Really, he’s such a nice boy.

Character: Princess Serenity
Series: Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon
Character Age: around 18-19 (age was not given in the series)
Canon:Princess Serenity is the previous incarnation of Usagi Tsukino, who in all other ways is an average teenager. (Well, aside from her being the soldier for love and justice, Sailor Moon.) What little the anime reveals about Princess Serenity is through flashbacks in the first series; the manga had more details but I don't have a clue where I put my books I currently don't have access to them, so I don't have all of the information available.
What is known is this: Princess Serenity was the daughter and heir of Queen Serenity of the Moon Kingdom, her bodyguards and advisors were the four Inner Senshi (Sailors Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus), and she was in love with Prince Endymion of Earth. According to what little I can recall from the manga, she often sneaked out of the Moon Palace to visit Endymion on Earth, which suggests she can do a fair bit of magic, and she knew enough about sword usage to kill herself with one after Endymion died.
For the purposes of this application, I'm playing her as being around 18-19, and she had met Endymion about a year earlier.
[email sent--and received?--on Mercury's pocket computer, under a protocol and alias that hasn't been seen for a thousand years Mercury doesn't recognize]
Mercury:
By all the gods hold dear, I desperately hope this message reaches you.
I'm not sure what happened, but somehow, while I was transiting between the Moon and the Earth--I know, I know, save the lectures about my recklessness for later--something interfered. I felt something grab me, and it was so sudden and so strong... It was all I could do to maintain my shields while it pulled me far too fast through the atmosphere, and the sudden landing blacked me out for a moment. Only a moment, and my shields were still intact when I regained my senses, so I'm fairly sure nothing got through. Especially when I took a good look at where I was.
I was nowhere near the location Endymion and I planned to rendezvous today.
For one thing, I've never been to this part of Earth before. It's hot, overwhelmingly green and fragrant, and everything, including the air, seems wet and damp. It seems to closely match descriptions I've read about… swamps, I think? It's a good thing I'm wearing that outfit you and Jupiter helped me with for the costume ball--the "Sailor Moon" costume? Endymion wanted to see it after I mentioned the party. And like I said, it's a good thing I wore it during the transition; I don't think my dress would have survived contact with the extremely squishy ground, and the boots are much better for running than my sandals.
Why would I be running? Well… the area I'm in seems to be saturated with magical creatures, foremost of which are undead.
I managed to drive them off (I *really* need to clean this tiara later--ick. And the gloves might be a loss.) and find temporary shelter in one of the trees, although the energy I used for that, as well as the rather rough trip, tired me somewhat. But I'm relatively safe right now, safe enough to try to use this device to contact you. I didn't realize the Earth people had access to our technology--this device seems like a large-scale version of your pocket computer. When I came to, it was beside me, right outside my shields (along with a long, heavy stick--a weapon of some sort?). It certainly works like it, anyway, and I'm somehow connecting to a network--whose, I have no idea--so with any luck you'll be reading this.
If you do receive this message, please respond as soon as you can, and let me know when you and the others will leave the palace. That way I know when to cast a beacon spell so that you could locate me quicker. And the faster you do so, the more time you and the rest of the senshi will have to scold me for being reckless and caught off guard like a novice.
Please, let this message reach you.

Character: Hijiri Toudou
Series: Weiß Kreuz: Glühen
Character Age: ~14; less than 3 in reality [clone]
Canon: Toudou was created in the Z Class laboratories of the prestigious Kowa Academy. He is one of many clones programmed to work as the Z Class demands in spite of the fact that he himself is only in the S Class. Due to his being in charge of the Lifestyle Guidance Council, which keeps track of all the students' brainwaves as they work, he has a great amount of power over the school. He can fire teachers and have other classmates promoted and demoted as he so wishes. He is known as the Führer, and enjoys power. His philosophy on life and the brainwashing at Kowa is simply that no one needs to live who does not have purpose.
Sample Post:
So the Z Class laboratories branch out further than I expected. No matter. Their pitiful defense systems were hardly worth breaking throu---
Animal experimentation, is it? Ha. That's useless. And the concept---who chooses to raise the hormonal levels of primates and change their DNA simply to color them? Ridiculous. It's no small wonder that they haven'trevealed any of this data to the academic boards.
What is this--? Unhand me! You have no right to dare touch the Führer--!
Whatever it is the Academy has planned, they can forget it! I will not permit such---vile creatures to roam the campus. The things they attempted---and on I, the Führer---
I fail to see where this 'plan' is going.
This place is far too disorganized. I suppose it will be up to me to make sure these unruly terrors behave, then? What a task to lay at my feet, and in solitary at that. I suppose I will have to, if only for the Council's sake.

Character: Envy
Series: Fullmetal Alchemist (Manga version… yes, there’s a difference) http://groups.msn.com/FullMetalAlchemist/yourwebpage1.msnw
Character Age: Hundreds of years, but looks about teenage
Canon:
Envy is a homunculus, or human-made person. He is a skilled fighter, can shape-shift, and is very prone to bouts of rage. He also enjoys taking the form of someone his target loves just before killing them. He puts very little worth in human life, To those familiar with the anime, his motivations are different in the manga. Also, a diference lies in how the homunculus came into existance. The suspicioun now is that Father actually created them, not through the means mentioned near the end of the anime. He receives his orders from “Father," and right now, he and the rest of the Homunculus are collecting Alchemists, and are referring to them as the “sacrifices”. Ed is one of these sacrifices, and thus, it is in Envy’s best interest to keep him alive. Another difference is that the big spoiler at the end of the series regarding Envy and Ed does not apply in the manga, at least as far as we know right now.
Sample Post:
[Private] Ugh… This is disgusting. Not only is it filled to the brim with humans, that Fullmetal Pipsqueak is here. Of course, the whole reason that I’m here is because he is. I honestly have no idea what Father is thinking.
According to Father, I’m supposed to keep our important sacrifice from getting himself killed before we need him. I’d prefer just letting him die, him and that slanty-eyes, but I don't want to know what sort of punishment Father would have planned for me...
Once I find some way of getting out of here, I’ll knock out the precious Pipsqueak, relieve him of his automail, and drag him back to Father. Then I’ll go after the Flameing Gay Colonel.
When I get my hands on that little shrimp, first, I'll tear his limbs off, automail and flesh, feed them to Gluttony, then I'll make him watch as I slowly and painfully kill his brother! I think a good old fashioned beating is good enough for that one. Over a period of weeks, of course. Don't want to be too merciful about it. Kyahahahaha!!
... Heheheh... I know exactly what will get me close to the pipsqueak... That pathetic little girl from Lior. Was she an Ishballan? Oh, I don't think it matters, it's been so long since he's seen her the fool wouldn't remember.

Hello? Is anybody there? Please, answer me! I'm really scared, and I don't know what to do! The gorillas have been chasing me all morning, my dress is torn from running through the plants, and my shoe is broken.
The people in my village all paid for me to go to Central to find Ed and thank him for what he did for us, but I think I got off at the wrong stop. When I walked in through the gates, they snapped shut behind me and I can't get them open again. When I turned back around, I saw a duffel bag, a gun, and some people that are missing parts of them were walking my way.
Is there anyone that can help me? Edward? Alphonse?.... Hello?.... Kain?

Character: Souma Isuzu
Series: Fruits basket
Character Age: 18
Canon:
Souma Isuzu ( Rin) is the horse of the Jyunishi and tends to be a bit rebellious. When she was eight or nine, She asked her parents about why they seemed happy so much and this caused the facade to break, resulting in abuse. Hatsuharu stood up for her then. After she was removed from their care, Kagura's mother took her in. Rin suffers from ulcers and we see evidence of this after she gets out of the hospital when Tohru finds her at Shigure's house. Rin seems to have a somewhat close relationship with Shigure and often refers to him as Gure-nii. Her relationship with Haru, however, is one of the few canonical ones in the series. Although she ended it, it is rather evident that she still has an attachment to him.
Her personality can be summed up in three words Bitch with issues. But more in depth : She has a short fuse and it's rather easily apparent from her interactions with Tohru.. She's rather selfish and only cares for those she deems her friends(Kagura Shigure Haru..). Unlike some of the other Jyunishi she avoids those without ties to the actual Jyunishi. Her choice in clothing also reflects this to a degree. She dresses somewhat flamboyantly. She even propositioned Shigure in exchange for information about the curse at one point which demonstrates her willingness to do just about anything to reach her goals.
Sample Post:
This was Akito's idea wasn't it? He's enough of a sadist to enjoy watching us go through something like this. I swear I'm going to make someone pay for this when I get the chance to. Kagura's mother said something about a learning experience. Right. I see now that I should have just ignored her. And that became more apparent the minute I set foot in this camp and caught of whiff of whatever the hell you call that smell. I was having second thoughts. Actually I was having third or fourth thoughts Kagura told me Gure-nii was here but I haven't seen him yet. If she got the name wrong I'm going to yell at her when I see her again. And as for whoever else is here. With the exception of Hatsuharu Stay the hell away from me . You know who you are. Looking in your general direction here, Yuki
So what exactly is the draw of this camp? Because from what I've seen so far I really can't figure it out. I mean most summer camps don't issue shotguns as required materials. Not that I know from personal experience. This place is a hellhole posing as a summer camp. What did I just step in? I'll never get these boots clean damn it. Someone is going to pay for these. They were damned expensive. And does anyone have any bug spray. Preferably instantly lethal so these damn horseflies will leave me alone. And what kind of cabins are these?. I mean has anyone here heard of something called a building code. There's no way in hell these would be considered habitable. I knew this was a mistake the moment I stepped into this so-called camp.

Character: Farneze de Vandimion
Series: Berserk (manga)
Character Age: 18
Canon:
She is the commander of the Knights of the Holy Chain (a
showcase troop of inexperienced pansies whose noble parents don't want
their sons to fight in actual battle), a position she got for being a
noble, female virgin and being deemed unfit for marriage by her father for
being too wild. Farneze is bossy, bitchy, and a fanatical believer of the
church of her world so much, that she is unable to see demonic or magical
creatures (such as fairies) since they
don't belong to her world of belief (zombies work though, they used to be
human). She has an unhealthy obsession with
fire, and she takes pride and pleasure in burning heretics to the stake.
However, she is a pitiful and very lonely girl (despite having a boy
bitch servant that never leaves her side) suffering under
huge pressure, and once her world of belief shatters, she undergoes many
changes. As her servant once says, "Sometimes, she can be really
sweet."
Sample Post:
As soon as I received word on the Black Knight being sighted at
Hahnendorf, I knew we had to act at once. This should be our ultimate
chance to capture him and to bring him and his crimes to justice!, I
thought. After one year of pursuit, finally we have him corned!!
Without hesitation I and my babysitter the vice commander
led the Knights of the Holy Chain along the quickest route to the nearby
city. Our informant told us the Black Knight was staying in a shack by the
edge of town uninvited, I bet, the vermin. We had
to act quickly, as for some reason the Black Knight always starts moving
by nightfall, and we would have gotten there on time hadn't the
path been blocked by a giant horde of sheep. By the time we arrived, the
sky had long turned dark and thus, the criminal had escaped justice once
again. I HATE HIM SO MUCH. At least I had the sheperd
arrested for treason.
So here we were, caught in the middle of nowhere with no leads. The
villagers we asked had seen nothing of the Black Knight. We would have
liked to return home to our warm beds, but I decided it
was better to stay overnight in the area and to continue our search in the
morning. Since it would have been an unnecessary waste of our funds for
all of us to stay at the inn, I ordered my unit to camp under the
open sky which, in retrospect, did look a little like
rain. I heard some of them complain, but I demanded that they all
be silent. Like I always say, if a commander isn't firm with her soldiers,
they will easily lose faith and respect.
But apparently, I have been too soft with them. When I marched past
them towards the inn, someone, someone, had the disgrace to......
trip. me. up. I know they did, my leg armour clunked against metal.
Unfortunately, I was unable to see who the offender was to punish him
appropriately like have him scourge himself in front of me to wash
himself from his grave sin oh I wonder if he was handsome,
since the moment I hit the ground, everything around me started to fade,
and then...... ... I must be dreaming.
I am in hiding right now. I am being pursued b-by... victims of the
lastest plague in Breitensee, I assume. The lues have definitely gone to
their heads, since they are unable of intelligent conversation. And they
reek. I must flee the area as soon as possible, I cannot put myself
at risk when I still have my holy mission...... ..... I, I cannot believe
my own men have done this to me?! Why, I ask, do I have an enemy
from above?!...... .... heretics, all of them!! They shall be burned to

Master, I have arrived to the area. The ship shut down completely, and so did the droid that I brought. I explored the area looking for intelligent forms, and when I tried to get back to it a barrier blocked me, I have tried to destroy it by all means possible, but so far my attempts have been unsuccesful.
I will explore the area in depth, I understand this was supposed to be a murder case, though the need of jedi involvement escapes me.
***
I found a camp; A large number of humans seem to be trapped here, I did not reveal myself to them thinking it wise to wait and observe in case there were guards, I didn't notice any; however on my way back I encountered a group of large primates. They appeared to be in heat and mistook me for a mate... I am sure you will find this amusing, master, but it was a distressing experience. I have seen other animals, but after the event with the primates I have decided to avoid them.
I am ashamed to admit this place is making me nervous. It has a way of confusing people, I could swear I saw a formation of rocks move, and a tree slapped my backside; this took me by surprise and before I realized it I had taken out my lightsaber and cut the branch off. I would think the whole incident was caused by the wind if I hadn't seen the branch slowly creep away. I suspect it is following me, I just turned and it was casually leaning against my pack. By now I am compelled to believe it is trying to catch me unaware to slap me again.
***
Explosions coming from the populated area are disturbingly common. It wouldn't be surprising if the population was having trouble with their sense of reality.
I will make my presence known and try to keep you informed on the development of the investigation, but I do not think your answers will reach me.

What is known is this: Princess Serenity was the daughter and heir of Queen Serenity of the Moon Kingdom, her bodyguards and advisors were the four Inner Senshi (Sailors Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus), and she was in love with Prince Endymion of Earth. According to what little I can recall from the manga, she often sneaked out of the Moon Palace to visit Endymion on Earth, which suggests she can do a fair bit of magic, and she knew enough about sword usage to kill herself with one after Endymion died.
For the purposes of this application, I'm playing her as being around 18-19, and she had met Endymion about a year earlier.

Mercury:
By all the gods hold dear, I desperately hope this message reaches you.
I'm not sure what happened, but somehow, while I was transiting between the Moon and the Earth--I know, I know, save the lectures about my recklessness for later--something interfered. I felt something grab me, and it was so sudden and so strong... It was all I could do to maintain my shields while it pulled me far too fast through the atmosphere, and the sudden landing blacked me out for a moment. Only a moment, and my shields were still intact when I regained my senses, so I'm fairly sure nothing got through. Especially when I took a good look at where I was.
I was nowhere near the location Endymion and I planned to rendezvous today.
For one thing, I've never been to this part of Earth before. It's hot, overwhelmingly green and fragrant, and everything, including the air, seems wet and damp. It seems to closely match descriptions I've read about… swamps, I think? It's a good thing I'm wearing that outfit you and Jupiter helped me with for the costume ball--the "Sailor Moon" costume? Endymion wanted to see it after I mentioned the party. And like I said, it's a good thing I wore it during the transition; I don't think my dress would have survived contact with the extremely squishy ground, and the boots are much better for running than my sandals.
Why would I be running? Well… the area I'm in seems to be saturated with magical creatures, foremost of which are undead.
I managed to drive them off (I *really* need to clean this tiara later--ick. And the gloves might be a loss.) and find temporary shelter in one of the trees, although the energy I used for that, as well as the rather rough trip, tired me somewhat. But I'm relatively safe right now, safe enough to try to use this device to contact you. I didn't realize the Earth people had access to our technology--this device seems like a large-scale version of your pocket computer. When I came to, it was beside me, right outside my shields (along with a long, heavy stick--a weapon of some sort?). It certainly works like it, anyway, and I'm somehow connecting to a network--whose, I have no idea--so with any luck you'll be reading this.
If you do receive this message, please respond as soon as you can, and let me know when you and the others will leave the palace. That way I know when to cast a beacon spell so that you could locate me quicker. And the faster you do so, the more time you and the rest of the senshi will have to scold me for being reckless and caught off guard like a novice.
Please, let this message reach you.

Character: Hijiri Toudou
Series: Weiß Kreuz: Glühen
Character Age: ~14; less than 3 in reality [clone]
Canon: Toudou was created in the Z Class laboratories of the prestigious Kowa Academy. He is one of many clones programmed to work as the Z Class demands in spite of the fact that he himself is only in the S Class. Due to his being in charge of the Lifestyle Guidance Council, which keeps track of all the students' brainwaves as they work, he has a great amount of power over the school. He can fire teachers and have other classmates promoted and demoted as he so wishes. He is known as the Führer, and enjoys power. His philosophy on life and the brainwashing at Kowa is simply that no one needs to live who does not have purpose.
Sample Post:
So the Z Class laboratories branch out further than I expected. No matter. Their pitiful defense systems were hardly worth breaking throu---
Animal experimentation, is it? Ha. That's useless. And the concept---who chooses to raise the hormonal levels of primates and change their DNA simply to color them? Ridiculous. It's no small wonder that they haven'trevealed any of this data to the academic boards.
What is this--? Unhand me! You have no right to dare touch the Führer--!
Whatever it is the Academy has planned, they can forget it! I will not permit such---vile creatures to roam the campus. The things they attempted---and on I, the Führer---
I fail to see where this 'plan' is going.
This place is far too disorganized. I suppose it will be up to me to make sure these unruly terrors behave, then? What a task to lay at my feet, and in solitary at that. I suppose I will have to, if only for the Council's sake.
---Again with the apes? The fedoras are hardly a nice touch. The poor humor is astounding. Am I to honestly believe that this... camp is the cause of this mutation? You have taken me for a fool. They wouldn't dare touch me again, so call off your freakish apes before--

Character: Envy
Series: Fullmetal Alchemist (Manga version… yes, there’s a difference) http://groups.msn.com/FullMetalAlchemist/yourwebpage1.msnw
Character Age: Hundreds of years, but looks about teenage
Canon:
Envy is a homunculus, or human-made person. He is a skilled fighter, can shape-shift, and is very prone to bouts of rage. He also enjoys taking the form of someone his target loves just before killing them. He puts very little worth in human life, To those familiar with the anime, his motivations are different in the manga. Also, a diference lies in how the homunculus came into existance. The suspicioun now is that Father actually created them, not through the means mentioned near the end of the anime. He receives his orders from “Father," and right now, he and the rest of the Homunculus are collecting Alchemists, and are referring to them as the “sacrifices”. Ed is one of these sacrifices, and thus, it is in Envy’s best interest to keep him alive. Another difference is that the big spoiler at the end of the series regarding Envy and Ed does not apply in the manga, at least as far as we know right now.
Sample Post:
[Private] Ugh… This is disgusting. Not only is it filled to the brim with humans, that Fullmetal Pipsqueak is here. Of course, the whole reason that I’m here is because he is. I honestly have no idea what Father is thinking.
According to Father, I’m supposed to keep our important sacrifice from getting himself killed before we need him. I’d prefer just letting him die, him and that slanty-eyes, but I don't want to know what sort of punishment Father would have planned for me...
Once I find some way of getting out of here, I’ll knock out the precious Pipsqueak, relieve him of his automail, and drag him back to Father. Then I’ll go after the Flameing Gay Colonel.
When I get my hands on that little shrimp, first, I'll tear his limbs off, automail and flesh, feed them to Gluttony, then I'll make him watch as I slowly and painfully kill his brother! I think a good old fashioned beating is good enough for that one. Over a period of weeks, of course. Don't want to be too merciful about it. Kyahahahaha!!
... Heheheh... I know exactly what will get me close to the pipsqueak... That pathetic little girl from Lior. Was she an Ishballan? Oh, I don't think it matters, it's been so long since he's seen her the fool wouldn't remember.
*shifts into Rose*
[/Private]
Hello? Is anybody there? Please, answer me! I'm really scared, and I don't know what to do! The gorillas have been chasing me all morning, my dress is torn from running through the plants, and my shoe is broken.
The people in my village all paid for me to go to Central to find Ed and thank him for what he did for us, but I think I got off at the wrong stop. When I walked in through the gates, they snapped shut behind me and I can't get them open again. When I turned back around, I saw a duffel bag, a gun, and some people that are missing parts of them were walking my way.
Is there anyone that can help me? Edward? Alphonse?.... Hello?.... Kain?

Character: Souma Isuzu
Series: Fruits basket
Character Age: 18
Canon:
Souma Isuzu ( Rin) is the horse of the Jyunishi and tends to be a bit rebellious. When she was eight or nine, She asked her parents about why they seemed happy so much and this caused the facade to break, resulting in abuse. Hatsuharu stood up for her then. After she was removed from their care, Kagura's mother took her in. Rin suffers from ulcers and we see evidence of this after she gets out of the hospital when Tohru finds her at Shigure's house. Rin seems to have a somewhat close relationship with Shigure and often refers to him as Gure-nii. Her relationship with Haru, however, is one of the few canonical ones in the series. Although she ended it, it is rather evident that she still has an attachment to him.
Her personality can be summed up in three words Bitch with issues. But more in depth : She has a short fuse and it's rather easily apparent from her interactions with Tohru.. She's rather selfish and only cares for those she deems her friends(Kagura Shigure Haru..). Unlike some of the other Jyunishi she avoids those without ties to the actual Jyunishi. Her choice in clothing also reflects this to a degree. She dresses somewhat flamboyantly. She even propositioned Shigure in exchange for information about the curse at one point which demonstrates her willingness to do just about anything to reach her goals.
Sample Post:
This was Akito's idea wasn't it? He's enough of a sadist to enjoy watching us go through something like this. I swear I'm going to make someone pay for this when I get the chance to. Kagura's mother said something about a learning experience. Right. I see now that I should have just ignored her. And that became more apparent the minute I set foot in this camp and caught of whiff of whatever the hell you call that smell. I was having second thoughts. Actually I was having third or fourth thoughts Kagura told me Gure-nii was here but I haven't seen him yet. If she got the name wrong I'm going to yell at her when I see her again. And as for whoever else is here. With the exception of Hatsuharu Stay the hell away from me . You know who you are. Looking in your general direction here, Yuki
So what exactly is the draw of this camp? Because from what I've seen so far I really can't figure it out. I mean most summer camps don't issue shotguns as required materials. Not that I know from personal experience. This place is a hellhole posing as a summer camp. What did I just step in? I'll never get these boots clean damn it. Someone is going to pay for these. They were damned expensive. And does anyone have any bug spray. Preferably instantly lethal so these damn horseflies will leave me alone. And what kind of cabins are these?. I mean has anyone here heard of something called a building code. There's no way in hell these would be considered habitable. I knew this was a mistake the moment I stepped into this so-called camp.

Character: Farneze de Vandimion
Series: Berserk (manga)
Character Age: 18
Canon:
She is the commander of the Knights of the Holy Chain (a
showcase troop of inexperienced pansies whose noble parents don't want
their sons to fight in actual battle), a position she got for being a
noble, female virgin and being deemed unfit for marriage by her father for
being too wild. Farneze is bossy, bitchy, and a fanatical believer of the
church of her world so much, that she is unable to see demonic or magical
creatures (such as fairies) since they
don't belong to her world of belief (zombies work though, they used to be
human). She has an unhealthy obsession with
fire, and she takes pride and pleasure in burning heretics to the stake.
However, she is a pitiful and very lonely girl (despite having a boy
bitch servant that never leaves her side) suffering under
huge pressure, and once her world of belief shatters, she undergoes many
changes. As her servant once says, "Sometimes, she can be really
sweet."
Sample Post:
As soon as I received word on the Black Knight being sighted at
Hahnendorf, I knew we had to act at once. This should be our ultimate
chance to capture him and to bring him and his crimes to justice!, I
thought. After one year of pursuit, finally we have him corned!!
Without hesitation I and my babysitter the vice commander
led the Knights of the Holy Chain along the quickest route to the nearby
city. Our informant told us the Black Knight was staying in a shack by the
edge of town uninvited, I bet, the vermin. We had
to act quickly, as for some reason the Black Knight always starts moving
by nightfall, and we would have gotten there on time hadn't the
path been blocked by a giant horde of sheep. By the time we arrived, the
sky had long turned dark and thus, the criminal had escaped justice once
again. I HATE HIM SO MUCH. At least I had the sheperd
arrested for treason.
So here we were, caught in the middle of nowhere with no leads. The
villagers we asked had seen nothing of the Black Knight. We would have
liked to return home to our warm beds, but I decided it
was better to stay overnight in the area and to continue our search in the
morning. Since it would have been an unnecessary waste of our funds for
all of us to stay at the inn, I ordered my unit to camp under the
open sky which, in retrospect, did look a little like
rain. I heard some of them complain, but I demanded that they all
be silent. Like I always say, if a commander isn't firm with her soldiers,
they will easily lose faith and respect.
But apparently, I have been too soft with them. When I marched past
them towards the inn, someone, someone, had the disgrace to......
trip. me. up. I know they did, my leg armour clunked against metal.
Unfortunately, I was unable to see who the offender was to punish him
appropriately like have him scourge himself in front of me to wash
himself from his grave sin oh I wonder if he was handsome,
since the moment I hit the ground, everything around me started to fade,
and then...... ... I must be dreaming.
I am in hiding right now. I am being pursued b-by... victims of the
lastest plague in Breitensee, I assume. The lues have definitely gone to
their heads, since they are unable of intelligent conversation. And they
reek. I must flee the area as soon as possible, I cannot put myself
at risk when I still have my holy mission...... ..... I, I cannot believe
my own men have done this to me?! Why, I ask, do I have an enemy
from above?!...... .... heretics, all of them!! They shall be burned to

Master, I have arrived to the area. The ship shut down completely, and so did the droid that I brought. I explored the area looking for intelligent forms, and when I tried to get back to it a barrier blocked me, I have tried to destroy it by all means possible, but so far my attempts have been unsuccesful.
I will explore the area in depth, I understand this was supposed to be a murder case, though the need of jedi involvement escapes me.
***
I found a camp; A large number of humans seem to be trapped here, I did not reveal myself to them thinking it wise to wait and observe in case there were guards, I didn't notice any; however on my way back I encountered a group of large primates. They appeared to be in heat and mistook me for a mate... I am sure you will find this amusing, master, but it was a distressing experience. I have seen other animals, but after the event with the primates I have decided to avoid them.
I am ashamed to admit this place is making me nervous. It has a way of confusing people, I could swear I saw a formation of rocks move, and a tree slapped my backside; this took me by surprise and before I realized it I had taken out my lightsaber and cut the branch off. I would think the whole incident was caused by the wind if I hadn't seen the branch slowly creep away. I suspect it is following me, I just turned and it was casually leaning against my pack. By now I am compelled to believe it is trying to catch me unaware to slap me again.
***
Explosions coming from the populated area are disturbingly common. It wouldn't be surprising if the population was having trouble with their sense of reality.
I will make my presence known and try to keep you informed on the development of the investigation, but I do not think your answers will reach me.
May the force be with you.
