Character: Byakko
Series: Yami No Matsuei (Descendants of Darkness)
Age: Ageless! Looks about 20.

Canon: Yami no Matsuei is about Shinigami (gods of death) who are
sent to investigate unnatural deaths or people who aren't dying when they're
supposed to. The GenSouKai arc, where Byakko appears, is about Hisoka going
to try to find a Shikigami- basically, a powerful spiritual creature that a
Shinigami can summon. Wacky hijinks ensue, involving wormholes and cactuses
in cowboy hats.

Byakko is the guardian beast of the west and the Shikigami that Tsuzuki
calls the most- he's also Tsuzuki's friend as well as Shiki. The
youngest(-looking) of the four guardian beasts, he appears in the human
world in the form of a giant white tiger- in the Shikigami world, he appears
as a young man with white hair and a fluffy striped tail.

Byakko is cheerful and bouncy kitty, but like all felines, he can be lazy;
he's known for cutting work by escaping to mountain ranges and napping. His
preferred manner of greeting someone he knows is by jumping on them, and
he'll usually do it immediately after spotting them. He's also somewhat
absentminded and forgetful, and tends not to listen to people when they
protest at something he's doing.

Sample Post:
Oh man, oh man, those wormholes sure are getting out of hand! Where is this,
anyway? I don't remember anywhere being this . . . swampy or glowy or . . .
undead-infested or anything. Unless I just forgot. Not that
it's bad! It's just I really have other places to be, and I'm not sure I
like waking up from a nap with an ownerless set of teeth chewing on my ear.
It's just kind of unnerving, y'know? Especially when they keep trying to
chew after I smash them!

H-Hey! I know it's nice and all, but let's not try to pull or eat my tail.
Byakko's tail is a never food! A never food! I like it better when it's
attached to my body! Hey, don't drool on it, either! And what've you been
eating to make your spit glow? Does that colour even show up
in nature? Sheesh. It'd better not be acid or something!

And while I'm at it, I don't like the looks you trees are giving me! Yeah,
that's right, that 'I-wonder-what-that-big-kitty-tastes-like' look. Staring
at me with your beady little . . . knotholes. I know what you're plotting,
but it won't work! You can't chew on me, you don't even have
mout-

-Oh hey, I. I guess you do have mouths. And teeth! That's very impressive.
But, hey, I have an idea! Let's play the 'don't bite Byakko' game! If you
bite me, you lose. Now, you guys just keep practicing on each other, while I
go over here. And do something else.

Now, which direction was back home again?

Character: Natsumi Hinata (aka 723)
Series: Keroro Gunso (or Sgt. Frog) (wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sgt._Frog)
Age: 14

Canon: Keroro Gunso is about a platoon of froglike aliens from
Planet Keron coming to Earth, only to end up separated, and Keroro winds up
being discovered/captured by the siblings Fuyuki Hinata and Natsumi Hinata
and their mother Aki Hinata, and soon is forced to do chores around the
house while attempting to find his crew. The funny thing is, though, is that
the whole platoon is screwed up in the head one way or another and never
actually get their jobs done.

Natsumi Hinata is the older red-head sibling, always wearing her hair up in
pigtails. While she is very smart and extremely athletic, she is also quite
moody and aggressive, and can be pushy at times. While she can be aggressive
like that, Natsumi does have her soft and gentle side and is very willing to
protect those she cares about. Natsumi is easy to catch onto most things,
and often notices such unusual activities due to living with alien invaders.
While she can cook well and clean fairly decently, she would rather have
somebody else do it so she could spend time playing video games and
generally lazing around. Things such as zombies, lake monsters, and
tentacles-that-want-to-do-naughty-things-to-barely-legal-girls do not faze
her due to, like above, living with alien invaders. However, Natsumi has a
large, large fear of slugs that cause her body to go week, and it's her only
major weakness.

Sample Post:
I can’t believe that stupid frog tricked me.

“Go to this summer camp, Natsumi-dono! This is the best summer camp around,
Natsumi-dono! Despite its name it’s really good, Natsumi-dono! There’s no
zombies there, Natsumi-dono! Come on, take a break, Natsumi-dono! I promise
to do all my chores!” Pff. Yeah right. He’s probably just sitting around
making his little Gundam models while the dishes just sit around unwashed.
Knowing Fuyuki and Mama, they’re just going to let the stupid frog take over
the planet even though he’s too lazy to actually, you know, do
so. Without I, Natsumi Hinata, Earth is helpless. I’m the only one
I know who even cares about our planet’s fate!

So, why did I, the only one who is against the invasion and the only one who
puts it to a halt (besides their own procrastination), get convinced to even
come here? I don't think anybody here would be that
entertaining anyway. Probably just a bunch of lunatics, because
that's definanatly what I need. More lunatics in my life.

It’s a lot less pretty than I was expecting. Plus, when I was on my way
here, zombies were trying to get at my brain the whole time, dead
fish fell on me about an hour ago, a beaver tore off my skirt and
ran with it, and I could have sworn there was a toucan throwing parts
of dead cow at me! And this is supposed to be good experience
for me! I don’t quite count a “good experience” as one where there’s -no-
bus to take you to your destination, and you wind up loosing an item of
clothing because of some animal. Sheesh.

You’ll rue the day I come back from “Camp Fuck You Die” (what a bitter
name), you stupid freeloading alien. Remember when I told you that “you’d
think hell would be too good of a place after I was finished with you”, a
long, long time ago? Yeah. Well, when I get back home, hell will be a
better place than even heaven. In elementary school they didn’t call me
Devil Summer for nothing. You’ll see.

But for now...where's a place where I can take a bath?

Character: Tenma Tsukamoto
Series: School Rumble
Age: 16

Canon: Tenma, for the most part, is a typical high-school student,
and an eternal optimist. She has friends, does her best in school, and of
course, has a crush. This is where the "typical" falls out and the "manic"
takes its place. Tsukamoto is head-over-heels in love with her classmate,
Oji Karasuma (more commonly referred to as 'Karasuma-kun' by Tenma). Upon
finding out he was going to transfer out of school, Tenma attempted to write
out a letter confessing her feelings. However, it ended up as a long scroll
saying, "Don't go! Please don't leave!" over and over again. Naturally, she
forgot to sign her name. Regardless though, it worked, and Karasuma managed
to stay another year.

This is just the beginning of many failed attempts, awkward situations, and
downright silly scenarios Tenma finds herself in, thanks to her debilitating
crush. She's dressed up like a kappa to emulate Karasuma's unique rain gear
and disguised herself as a nurse in hopes of getting Karasuma's data on
health inspection day.

In the simplest of terms, Tenma is a cute ditz. Despite her somewhat
telekinetic ability (she bent a spoon in the first OVA), she is prone to
flailing, dorking out, and just all out spazzing, especially when it comes
to screwing up her chances with Karasuma. All her attempts thus far have
ended in failure as a result.

Sample Post:
What kind of 100 Yen shop is this?

Well, that was the first thing I thought anyway. I mean, I walked in the
door, my foot caught the doorframe, and I fell. My eyes closed due to the
impact, and when I opened them, there was a unicorn right in my face. I
mean, a unicorn! So, I reacted the way anybody would: I grabbed the horn
and tugged really hard. You have to make sure they're real, you know! Well,
evidently it was a rude gesture because I soon found myself flying in the
air and hitting the ground. Where did that unicorn learn Karate, I wonder...
Anyway, next thing I know, I'm on my back, looking up at a sign that reads
"CAMP FUCK YOU DIE". Not the most friendly of names, but there was a sign at
least, and for whoever did that, it's appreciated. Really! Because, at least
I know where I am. Granted, I can't figure out how to leave. and I'm
guessing that skeleton a few feet away is a good indication of what would
happen if I tried. Oh, it moved. Never mind then...

Of course, I guess all this trails to one question: Why was I going into a
100 Yen shop?

I was... ok, I was following my crush, Karasuma-kun. I wasn't stalking him
or anything, I mean, I didn't follow him home. I almost did once,
accidentally, but that's not the point! I heard he was going to buy his
dinner there. I don't know what kind of meal you can make from the 100 Yen
shop, but I was willing to find out. Even if it was spiced natto, I would
have eaten it for him, really! That's just how much I love him...

So yeah, I fell into the door, found myself here, and... ok, I admit, for a
second, I thought that they were doing some summer promotional thing to gain
sales, but why would they drag so much dirt, rock, and bird poop inside?
Glowing bird poop, at that? Oh, and the fact that my foot was no longer on
the outside of the doorframe was a good indicator I wasn't in Japan anymore.

Why would Karasuma-kun be in a place like this? I mean, there's a sign in
the window of one of the cabins, looking like it's written in blood,
reading, "Begone. This is not for your brains." What the heck does that
mean?! I even tried to drink a little bit of that lake water. The moment my
fingers started to burn, I realized that was ill-advised. It still burns,
but I have no bandages... Gah, I'm so hungry! Maybe I could make some curry
out of that zombie over there...

Character: Nuriko (Chou Ryuuen)
Series: Fushigi Yuugi
Age: 18

Canon: Fushigi Yuugi is a harem shoujo series that follows the adventures of Yuuki Miaka, a girl who is magically transported into another world inside a book where she becomes the Priestess of Suzaku, whom according to an old legend, will save the land of Kounan. So basically, she's Yuuri, except with tits.

Nuriko is one of the Seven Celestial Warriors destined to protect the Priestess and as one of the Suzaku Seven, he has been gifted with super strength. At the beginning of the series 'she' is introduced as one of the maidens in the court's harem, but shortly after, we learn that he is in reality a man; in his own words, "someone who has abandoned the path of manhood for the sake of love." He is deeply in love with the Emperor, but the real reason why he started crossdressing and acting like a girl is to keep the memory of his deceased sister alive.

He is the type of person who shows concern and affection via yelling and physical violence. The words sarcastic, bitchy, narcissistic and prone to jealousy can't even begin to describe him, and because of this, he generally comes off as immature and shallow. However, in reality he is very caring, brave, selfless, and understanding. Thus, eventually becoming an older brother-figure to more than one of his friends.

PS: Nuriko is currently ded of beast man clawz, and Taiitsukun is an old woman, creator of the world in which FY takes place.

My~, isn't this an interesting turn of events! Honestly, I never imagined the afterlife would be so... peculiar.

Of course, I consider I've already had more than enough of wild animals trying to eat me alive, but I cannot say I don't appreciate the warm welcome I received. Why, really, it was so therapeutic to knock the hell out of those lewd creatures! Mmh, I wonder if you could make a boa out of that fur. I'm sure that shade of purple would go beautifully with my hair. ♥

Is it right of me to assume that this is some kind of waiting room for souls, I wonder? Because after all, the name of this place is a bit misleading. Also, the weather sure isn't warm enough for Hell and even though the stench certain swamps emit is more than a little impossible to stand, I always assumed Heaven would have a better ventilation system. Then again, Taiitsukun has always been cheap when it comes to certain things...

Ah, but where are my manners? My name is Nuriko and it is a pleasure to meet you all~ I don't know how long I will be staying here, but now that I've made it clear that YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO COME WITHIN TEN FEET OF ME, I hope we can all get along! Speaking of which, I have a couple of questions and I was wondering if you could answer them for me~?

First! Who does this hand belong to? I accidentally tore it off the one of you who thought it'd be funny to chew on my hair, but it's really difficult to tell since you're all... well, missing limbs here and there.

Second! Your skin problem, is it contagious? One moan for yes, two for no, and prepare to get hit by a tree if your answer is not the latter.

Third. Why is the moon smiling at me like that?

And fourth, exactly who do I need to see to find our more about the attractions mentioned in this brochure? I'm particularly interested in the, ah-- 'genderswitch', see~. ♥

Character: Atobe Keigo
Series: Prince of Tennis
Age: 14

Canon: Prince of the tennis is
shounen series about a young, obnoxiously talented boy
named Ryoma who became the pillar of his school's
tennis team and helped take them to the Nationals.

Captain of Hyoutei's 200 member Tennis Team, Atobe
Keigo is a national-level player who flaunts his skill
whenever he can. Be in awe of his prowess. Yes, he is
a diva. And he has the talent and skill to back up all
of his confidence. He's self-centered, arrogant,
charismatic, and spoiled. His family is ridiculously
wealthy, and he's used to an extravagant lifestyle.
He's used to being waited on and to being able to have
anything he wants, either because of wealth or because
of his talent. He enjoys being idolized. He also has a
habit of wearing outfits that are actually quite GAY
GAY GAAAY, including silk shirts, leather pants,
animal print, and frills. Really, the only character
who rivals his Gay would be the notorious Mizuki.

Sample Post:
Mm, Camp Fuck You Die, be in awe of my ---

Is this really it? Sure, I admit I was expecting some
natural charm, maybe a quaint American bungalow, but
peace corps goes Land of the Dead? Are there National
Geographic photographers running around as well?

This simply won't do.

I shudder as I say this, for how can anyone
compare this soft glowing skin to rotting
flesh, but I don't need such lows beneath the
pedestal Ore-sama rests upon. Compare me to a summer's
day, not to poor sir Yorick. The zombies' presence
offends all my senses.

Now, about the gorillas. Let me first preface the next
few statements with: I do realize that we live
in a society where High Fashion is still shunned by
unfortunate and fashionless plebians who feel the need
to aggressively enforce a fur-free clothing world. Put
the red paint down, you wouldn't want to pay
for cleaning this attire, and I do have a
shotgun.

Before stepping into your charming little hovel of rot
and nature, I had never considered such a purple could
go with my complextion. (I usually leave purple to
that St. Rudolph boy who can't understand that not
every purple will do. Pity.) However, as unfortunate
and emotionally traumatizing as it was to be that
close to the beast, that truly is a stunning>
shade of purple.

Please calm yourselves, ape enthusiasts, I won't have
your precious purple gorillas killed for my humble yet
awe-inspiring sense of fashion. I don't need that much
purple and can you imagine Ore-sama with furry purple
slacks? No. Only one must die: the short young one,
with the hat. I am quite certain he muttered "you've
got lots more to work on" at me. You, petulant one,
have the great honor of becoming my new winter coat.
Who's your monkey king now?

Character: Kinomoto Sakura
Series: Cardcaptor Sakura
Age: 11 (she's taken from the end of the Sakura Cards arc)

Canon: On first appearance, Kinomoto Sakura appears to be a normal elementary school student. She's vivacious, cheerful, optimistic, terrified of ghosts, alternates between adoring and disliking her older brother Toya, and dislikes mathematics. And really, who can blame her on the last one? However, after she opened a book in her father's library and released magical (Clow) cards into the world, Sakura took on the role of Cardcaptor - someone who has to collect all of the cards in order to avert a disaster. Although Sakura has faced some very strange obstacles, due to her tenacity and the support of her friends and allies - including Syaoran who, at one point, was her rival - Sakura was able to capture the cards and is now the Mistress of the Clow. Aided by her guardians Yue and Kerberos ("Kero-chan"), Sakura now protects her home town from magical dangers.

Sample Post:
Stupid Toya got us lost! I told him he should have let me use the map, but he said that he could see better because he was taller. It's not true! But then he went to ask for directions and he's been gone for so long ... it's all his fault anyway! If he had let me have the map then we'd be at the bus stop already. Now I'm really lost and the road's gone somehow. I didn't think I wandered that far away ... and I didn't think that gorillas lived in Japan. My teacher told me they lived in Africa - maybe they're lost too?

I'll find the road soon though! I tried doubling back, but I kept getting turned around to where I was before. I know, because the tree's still charred from when the fire-breathing duckling got a little excited after I petted it. It was so cute until then, all fluffy and a little scowly - I called it Syaoran. I don't think he'd mind, the duckling looked just like him! But, I keep getting turned around. It's like a maze. In fact, it's almost as if it's a Clow C- Kero-chan said I had all of them. So it can't be. It must be something else though, something magical ...oh! There's a sign!

"Temple of Marcy: All Viewers Will Require An Accompanying Adult And Must Don Waterwangs For Their Own Protection". Hoe? I think they meant 'waterwings' - I should let them know that they misspelled it. I don't think it matters that I haven't got an adult here with me yet. It looks really interesting and it'll teach me stuff too! Dad told us about how there were people who worshipped things in water; it must be like that. I'll just leave a note in my rollerblades so that people know where I've gone, put the waterwings on and have a look! Everything will absolutely be all right, I'm sure of it!
