Character: Riku
Series: Kingdom Hearts (I, Chain of Memories, and II)
Age: 16
Canon: Kingdom Hearts: the series about the wonderful heart-felt Disney adventures of a boy and his key. Though not the star of the show, Riku's role in the games is far from minor. In Kingdom Hearts I Riku plays the role of the jealous best friend, abandoning the way of good and light in favor of darkness because he thinks Sora's left him and Kairi in favor of newer and shinier friends. In Chain of Memories, with the help of Mickey Mouse he realizes how much of an idiot he was and decides use the darkness as his aid instead of fighting against it. In Kingdom Hearts II he forgets most of this-including Sora-and spends the game lurking around in the shadows wearing all black as he gets in touch with his dark side. Until Sora reminds him what a moron he's being, that is.
As far as personality goes, Riku acts before he thinks, he's always right, except for when he's wrong, and he can be stubborn and cocky as hell. He's got some pretty big issues going on because of the previously mentioned events, but he prefers to not go into those in too much detail with anyone that he doesn't trust. Pretty much the sum total of it is that, for Riku, his own needs are secondary when compared to the happiness of his friends. He will jump in front of deadly attacks and swallow his pride just to make sure his friends don't have to endure hardship because of him.
For Riku, the two most important people in his life are Sora and Kairi. He is best friend-rivals with Sora, and ♥s Kairi tons. He wants to protect both of them so that he doesn't fuck up like he did during KH I.

So gorillas, toucans, and any other sentient creatures of this world, here's a riddle for you. How many worlds do you go through to find a keyblade master? If anyone's got the answer, I'd like to know. 'Cause once again I've found myself in a whole new world with new horizons to pursue. And I've still got sand stuck in my shoes from the last one.
I'll spare you the rest and cut to the chase. I'm looking for two people, one big sap who answers to Sora, and a very special girl named Kairi. King Mickey said they'd be here. Though summer camp doesn't seem like the place to find those two, the King's never been wrong before. I'm not about to start second guessing him because of some weird-looking lake and a couple of swamps.
But I'm beginning to second guess whoever made up this place. This world is by far the weirdest I've encountered. I don't know if you could even call the stuff wandering around here heartless. They look less like heartless and more like-
Squirrels? Where did all the squirrels come from? Look, I didn't ask for a welcoming committee, I just need to find Sora and Kairi. Got that? Sora and Kairi.
...
The squirrels are singing. Off key.
...
Camp Fuck You Die, huh? Thanks, but I think I'll pass. Not that I'm not moved by your less than impressive musical talents, it just doesn't sound like that enticing of an offer. Swamps aren't my thing, and I'm not about to waste my time just because a few 'special' rodents threw together their idea of a welcoming party topped off by some bizarre song about Axel's hips. Lying or not, I'm not asking.
Though you do need someone to take care of those heartle-wait.
Zombies, huh? That sounds like a challenge. I think you just convinced me to stick around a little longer.

Light is your average high school genius. He has straight A’s, the top score on national tests, and the admiration of his classmates and teachers. He has a loving family, a girlfriend on demand, and enough money to buy anything he needs on whim. He also has a little black book -the Death Note- that people would die for.
But not just any random stranger! Light uses his Death Note for justice, killing only criminals and people who catch him at a bad time. That Lind. L Tailor guy, for example? Totally deserved it.

This isn’t the University of New Orleans.
I came here for a college visit, but somehow the taxi drive mistook UNO for Camp FUD. I can’t say I expected much out of a driver whose only words were “¡para el motivo de vodka!’, but this is goes beyond comprehension. When I asked to see his taxi license, he moaned something unintelligible before handing me some CFOD (Cabbie Friends On Demand?) license. I’m not one to usually complain, but they’re definitely getting a call from me in the near future.
I’m guessing this is movie set, judging by all the actors wandering in zombie suits. While I hate to be a killjoy, couldn’t you watch your extras a little more carefully? I noticed a few squatting around a fire earlier, and judging by their facial expressions, they weren’t up to anything productive, or legal. If you don’t want the headlines tomorrow to read “Entire movie set dies from local mushroom cloud inhalation” then I’d suggest you take this issue to note immediately.
The smoke from the fire left some kind of green stain on my shirt, and I really need to wash it out. I would ask for a shower or water fountain, but if all your plumbing is fixed up to the lake, I’d be better off leaving it as is. Sure, getting your plumbing locally might save you money right now, but what will you do when someone files a lawsuit? You obviously can’t plead ignorance, especially when your water’s the shade of a lime. I understand nobody wants to be the responsible one, but aren't we all adults? I guess health violations are all fun and games until someone catches Hepatitis E.
While my little excursion into the unknown was fun, I’d really like to get back to society and sanity. If it isn’t too bothersome, could someone point me towards the highway? Or would it be easier if I asked for UNO? You know, University of New Orleans?

Character: Alfons Heiderich
Series: Fullmetal Alchemist: The Conqueror of Shamballa
Age: 17
Canon: SPOILER AND HISTORY GEEKERY WARNING
Alfons is a young German, who grew up during World War 1, and is now living in the aftermath of the treaty. This treaty robbed Germany of most of its military might, and thus, by popular opinion, the pride of the nation's people. Many people in Alfons's home of Munich believe that the bureaucrats in Berlin gave up on them, and those fighting the war when they signed that treaty. Thus, Alfons is among those that are working to bring pride back to Germany.
Alfons, a student of Professor Hermann Oberth, met Edward Elric in Romania while they were both studying rocketry. Edward wanted to use the rockets to escape the atmosphere and somehow return to his lost little brother. It wasn't long until they started living together.
The resemblence Alfons bears to Edward's brother was uncanny, though their personalities and abilities varied. Heiderich lacks Elric's combat skill, and his sense of personal and national pride is much stronger, as well as being a fair bit more mature. He is also gravely ill. His overall personality is kind, though he has a fierce temper when he gets set off.
His illness has been brought about by fumes and contaminants via the fuel in the rockets he and his compatriots were building. It seems to be irreversible by any conventional means, and he has devoted his life and energies toward building a rocket system that the world has never seen, and make peopel pay attention, and remember him. His greater maturity comes from this acceptance of his own forthcoming death.
He and his colleagues receive a sponsorship from the Thule Society, a branch organization of the early NAZI party. The date at the end of the movie would be November 8th, 1923. In the end, Alfons discovers the true intentions of the Society's leader. Upon discovering this, Alfons shoves his ambitions to the side, (at this point his illness has taken a turn for the worse, and his days are indeed numbered) and helps Edward to get to his home. Before he goes, he asks Ed to not forget about him. As he is watching him leave, he is shot by one of Eckhart's men and dies.
He will be arriving in camp with his illness,the angst that goes with it and immediately after his death.

I hope Edward made it....
I'm not sure what to make of this small, shiny typewriter. This isn't anything I've seen before, it's really, truly, impressive! I wish I had my tools so I could see how it worked. I think I'm getting the hang of using it, though I'm not sure what this "Ding Dong Song" is supposed to be telling me. It's in English.... but some of this language I've never heard before
Then there was my welcoming party to this place... Those people missing parts must've thought I was one of them because of the blood on me. I'm quite sure I'm not. Though I would like my suspenders back.
This really strange message came up on my screen when I tried to enter in my birthdate. "Your date of birth is too far back for the system to tolerate. You are either experiencing a temporal anomaly, or are one of those cool undying types that are super-powerful and possibly brightly-colored hair. Or you are a lying sack of shit. Please enter (1) for temporal anomaly, (2) for being unable to die, (X) if you're a liar." ... I'm none of those things... I didn't know what I should do. One might be the closest... but I've never heard of anything like that. So I pushed 1. Then it called me a liar again. So I tried 2. It still called me a liar. And when I did the last one, it shut off. I don't know what to do! When I switched it back on, it did the same thing. Then it just stopped. Maybe it got bored, and wanted something else. What a strange personality this thing has. I thought if I gave it something it liked it would behave. It seems to have some sort of artificial intelligence, so I thought it might like something. So I found an apple. It must like them if it's got one on the case. I just set it there and walked away. When I came back a little while later it was gone. So it must have liked it.
I wonder how long I'll be allowed to stay here, because... I shouldn't be here right now...

Character: Yamamoto Takeshi
Series: Reborn!
Age: 15-16ish
Canon: Reborn is about a japanese boy named Tsuna who somehow has been selected to become the next head of the Vongola mafia family. This is not his app.
This app is for the second henchman he unwittingly recruited, Yamamoto Takeshi. Aside from that one time when he was going to throw himself off the roof cuz he was losing his touch at baseball--sports emo uh-- he's an easy going and positive thinking kinda guy. This is possibly due in part that he is oblivious to extremes. After enduring a violent and explosive mafia test to become a henchman, rampant gun use in his general vicinity, and even coming across a dead body lying in the mafia kid's room...still he does not realize he's actually part of the mafia. Dense doesn't even begin to describe it. He thinks the 'mafia' is all merely a game of little Reborn, the tiny toddler mafia member who is training Tsuna for Godfather...hood.
Sample Post:
Whoa, this is some crazy theme park. And a zombie shooting range--that's so clever. I wish Tsuna and Reborn were here, they'd love it. I'll have to bring them on down later on during the next school vacation. Let's see if I can peg one from her- - - ... WOW. Even the splatter is impressive. Talk about creativity. It reminds me of one of those violent video games I've seen some other kids play. I guess that's who this place is made for.
The shooting range is impressive but my favorite attraction so far is the Ever Growing Moss Monster. I haven't figured out yet how it's operated. I'm guessing hydraulics or animatronics though...or maybe a combination of both with the way it moves so easily. But seriously, that is an ingenious way of keeping the wildlife away from the guests. I hafta wonder what it does to the raccoons after it gobbles them up like that. Oh, there goes another one! Poor little guy. The Moss Monster must be a new attraction since the little fellas aren't use to it yet, it looked scared. It's okay, little raccoon! You're just going somewhere safe away from the guests so we don't hurt each other! There has to be a trap door under that thing, or a cage inside of it.
Huh, the guide has finally shown up. I'm still not sure why they picked the purple Minilla Gorilla or whatever outfit for the guides. I must have missed the horror movie about radioactive monkeys. And they don't even respond to the 'Damn dirty ape' line.... I feel just vaguely disappointed by that, although probably not as much as the kid who said it. Poor kid, they took him off somewhere for that so I guess there's a copyright infringement issue. But it looks like me and all the other guests are heading down to some cave now. It must be another attraction. I'm hoping it's a rollercoaster since this place has a lot going for it but is sorely lacking in actual rides.
And...the zombies are eatting the other guests. ... ... ... OH MAN! Hahahaha! The joke is on me! Great one, guys! You got me!

Character: Aoyagi Seimei
Series: Loveless
Age: 17
Canon: [WARNING: very big spoilers for volume 6 of the manga]
Who Seimei is depends on who you ask. To his mother and brother, Seimei was kind and gentle, yet strong; a pillar of support in an otherwise horrifyingly depressing family situation. To Soubi, his former partner/slave, Seimei was infallible and godlike. And to almost everyone else in the series, Seimei was... well, a complete bastard. Before Seimei's pre-series demise, he was one half of the famous and incredibly strong fighting magic duo known as Beloved. However, all good things must come to an end, and at the age of 17, Seimei died--or rather, was murdered by a mysterious organization called the Seven Moons (which he was a part of). Before the death occurred, he ordered Soubi to become the property of his brother Ritsuka--to love him and care for him. And thus the main events of Loveless were set in motion...
And then we find out that the rumours of Seimei's death have been greatly exaggerated. Oops!
The contrasting views of Seimei's personality seem to have come about mainly because the face Seimei presents to the people (or really, person) he loves is not his "true" face. In public, Seimei seems friendly, and the dialogue he uses is very carefully chosen--even when the words themselves are rude, Seimei's tone is very polite and cheerful. However, he makes it known to several people that they are a waste of his time, and treats them with unmistakable disdain. He's also something of a sadist, who claims to love pain (directed at other people, of course), and displays some very clear-cut signs of suffering from mysophobia. To top it all off, Seimei has expressed a dislike of humanity in general.
There's also the implied incestuous feelings for his twelve year old brother, but let's not get into that.
Sample Post:
How incredibly disgusting.
The food, the housing, the people... I would have expected a "camp" the size of a small town to have more in the way of budget, but I suppose it's human nature to be cheap and utterly... repugnant. Yes, that's the word.
Ah, perhaps I should take the time to explain myself, even if there is not much to explain. I have no idea how I got here, why I am here, or even where 'here' really is. If this is the work of the Seven Moons, color me impressed, because this is certainly a step up from their usual incompetence. At any rate, if I am to be living here, no matter how temporary, I will be providing you all with my preferred schedule and dietary preferences. I prefer being my own authority, thank you, so Madame... Director, was it? Don't even bother trying.
So, this is a concentration camp of some sort? A place where the organization places their enemies out of the way? I understand. But what I don't get is that after all the troublesome measures it must have taken to get me here, I was almost denied entry by a group of moaning malcontents. The "talking head" of the group, excuse the pun, did not exactly come with a welcome wagon--what he did come with was several unimaginative associates, all intent on keeping me out of camp, lest I disrupt the entire society located therein. "Well," I said, "Then let me go and stop this nonsense." Of course, it may have been the absence of both sets of ears, but they did not seem to listen, and instead were very keen on rattling off a list of my supposed "charges." And so it seems, through no fault or doing of my own, I have become a target of the largely unknown group "Focus on the Femur-ly," and I honestly don't know if it's just their pronunciation that's off, a representation of their current physical state, or... some sort of misguided attempt to be clever? In any case, their use of language is insulting. Words have power, and when used incorrectly... ah. I suppose you'll all find out soon enough.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am Aoyagi Seimei, and it seems that I'll be a new "camper" here. And please, whatever you do, pay no attention to the disembodied head behind the shrubbery--contrary to what its rambling would have you believe, there is nothing perverse about my familial relationships. I would tell him to be quiet about it and to keep his mind out of the gutter, but...
This place is rather literal, isn't it?

This app is for the second henchman he unwittingly recruited, Yamamoto Takeshi. Aside from that one time when he was going to throw himself off the roof cuz he was losing his touch at baseball--sports emo uh-- he's an easy going and positive thinking kinda guy. This is possibly due in part that he is oblivious to extremes. After enduring a violent and explosive mafia test to become a henchman, rampant gun use in his general vicinity, and even coming across a dead body lying in the mafia kid's room...still he does not realize he's actually part of the mafia. Dense doesn't even begin to describe it. He thinks the 'mafia' is all merely a game of little Reborn, the tiny toddler mafia member who is training Tsuna for Godfather...hood.

Whoa, this is some crazy theme park. And a zombie shooting range--that's so clever. I wish Tsuna and Reborn were here, they'd love it. I'll have to bring them on down later on during the next school vacation. Let's see if I can peg one from her- - - ... WOW. Even the splatter is impressive. Talk about creativity. It reminds me of one of those violent video games I've seen some other kids play. I guess that's who this place is made for.
The shooting range is impressive but my favorite attraction so far is the Ever Growing Moss Monster. I haven't figured out yet how it's operated. I'm guessing hydraulics or animatronics though...or maybe a combination of both with the way it moves so easily. But seriously, that is an ingenious way of keeping the wildlife away from the guests. I hafta wonder what it does to the raccoons after it gobbles them up like that. Oh, there goes another one! Poor little guy. The Moss Monster must be a new attraction since the little fellas aren't use to it yet, it looked scared. It's okay, little raccoon! You're just going somewhere safe away from the guests so we don't hurt each other! There has to be a trap door under that thing, or a cage inside of it.
Huh, the guide has finally shown up. I'm still not sure why they picked the purple Minilla Gorilla or whatever outfit for the guides. I must have missed the horror movie about radioactive monkeys. And they don't even respond to the 'Damn dirty ape' line.... I feel just vaguely disappointed by that, although probably not as much as the kid who said it. Poor kid, they took him off somewhere for that so I guess there's a copyright infringement issue. But it looks like me and all the other guests are heading down to some cave now. It must be another attraction. I'm hoping it's a rollercoaster since this place has a lot going for it but is sorely lacking in actual rides.
And...the zombies are eatting the other guests. ... ... ... OH MAN! Hahahaha! The joke is on me! Great one, guys! You got me!

Character: Aoyagi Seimei
Series: Loveless
Age: 17
Canon: [WARNING: very big spoilers for volume 6 of the manga]
Who Seimei is depends on who you ask. To his mother and brother, Seimei was kind and gentle, yet strong; a pillar of support in an otherwise horrifyingly depressing family situation. To Soubi, his former partner/slave, Seimei was infallible and godlike. And to almost everyone else in the series, Seimei was... well, a complete bastard. Before Seimei's pre-series demise, he was one half of the famous and incredibly strong fighting magic duo known as Beloved. However, all good things must come to an end, and at the age of 17, Seimei died--or rather, was murdered by a mysterious organization called the Seven Moons (which he was a part of). Before the death occurred, he ordered Soubi to become the property of his brother Ritsuka--to love him and care for him. And thus the main events of Loveless were set in motion...
And then we find out that the rumours of Seimei's death have been greatly exaggerated. Oops!
The contrasting views of Seimei's personality seem to have come about mainly because the face Seimei presents to the people (or really, person) he loves is not his "true" face. In public, Seimei seems friendly, and the dialogue he uses is very carefully chosen--even when the words themselves are rude, Seimei's tone is very polite and cheerful. However, he makes it known to several people that they are a waste of his time, and treats them with unmistakable disdain. He's also something of a sadist, who claims to love pain (directed at other people, of course), and displays some very clear-cut signs of suffering from mysophobia. To top it all off, Seimei has expressed a dislike of humanity in general.
There's also the implied incestuous feelings for his twelve year old brother, but let's not get into that.

How incredibly disgusting.
The food, the housing, the people... I would have expected a "camp" the size of a small town to have more in the way of budget, but I suppose it's human nature to be cheap and utterly... repugnant. Yes, that's the word.
Ah, perhaps I should take the time to explain myself, even if there is not much to explain. I have no idea how I got here, why I am here, or even where 'here' really is. If this is the work of the Seven Moons, color me impressed, because this is certainly a step up from their usual incompetence. At any rate, if I am to be living here, no matter how temporary, I will be providing you all with my preferred schedule and dietary preferences. I prefer being my own authority, thank you, so Madame... Director, was it? Don't even bother trying.
So, this is a concentration camp of some sort? A place where the organization places their enemies out of the way? I understand. But what I don't get is that after all the troublesome measures it must have taken to get me here, I was almost denied entry by a group of moaning malcontents. The "talking head" of the group, excuse the pun, did not exactly come with a welcome wagon--what he did come with was several unimaginative associates, all intent on keeping me out of camp, lest I disrupt the entire society located therein. "Well," I said, "Then let me go and stop this nonsense." Of course, it may have been the absence of both sets of ears, but they did not seem to listen, and instead were very keen on rattling off a list of my supposed "charges." And so it seems, through no fault or doing of my own, I have become a target of the largely unknown group "Focus on the Femur-ly," and I honestly don't know if it's just their pronunciation that's off, a representation of their current physical state, or... some sort of misguided attempt to be clever? In any case, their use of language is insulting. Words have power, and when used incorrectly... ah. I suppose you'll all find out soon enough.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am Aoyagi Seimei, and it seems that I'll be a new "camper" here. And please, whatever you do, pay no attention to the disembodied head behind the shrubbery--contrary to what its rambling would have you believe, there is nothing perverse about my familial relationships. I would tell him to be quiet about it and to keep his mind out of the gutter, but...
This place is rather literal, isn't it?
