Character: Ashikawa Mitsuru
Series: Brave Story
Character Age: 11
Canon: Despite the fact that he’s originally from modern Japan, Mitsuru spends most of his canon in a world known as “Vision," where he is abducted into the plot of an rpg granted the powers of a mage and sets out to demand a wish from the Goddess of Fate. Brave Story, at its heart, is a tale about realizing that getting what you want isn’t worth hurting others; Mitsuru, evidently, never read this public service announcement. He spends the length of his canon obsessed with his goal and is willing to do some truly horrific things in order to accomplish it.
Although young, Mitsuru is remarkably level-headed, composed, and well-spoken for his age- provided you stay the hell away from his crazy buttons. He faces physical threats unflinchingly, keeps his calm in dangerous situations, and lies easily; when he needs to be charming for the sake of his quest, he manages it well, but beyond that he has a tendency to slip into the casually insulting. Somewhere deep down, there’s a little boy who just wants his sister back, but he’s gotten a bit lost in that old saying about the end and the means.
Note: Mitsuru is being apped before he reaches the capital of the Ilda Empire at the end of his canon. Among his spells is some quite powerful ice magic.
Sample App:
Is that the best you can do? With a city named Camp Fuck You Die, you could stand to put a bit more effort into the "die" part. Calling for brains and lunging slow-motion for my foot- where there isn’t actually, you realize, a brain- doesn’t even make it all the way to threatening. So let me say it again, for the last time: I’m looking for the capital, and I’m in a hurry. Why yes, it is getting colder; good of you to notice. If you'd like, it can continue; I've heard the best way to keep meat from going bad is to freeze it. Shall we try?
Ah. Perhaps you don’t need those brains as badly as you’d thought. Quickly, then- let’s hear it. This way? Something relevant to my interests? …I see. And why, precisely, is a bush relevant to my interests?
…you may want to finish laughing after you’ve answered me. No, just pointing at the bush again won’t help. I see the little white boxes hanging on it, but why I ought to check them isn't nearly so obvious. Check them for what? If you would just tell me- ah. I see. With the sign half-hidden by leaves, it’s little wonder I missed it. “Partaking in this bush will lead to an exciting awareness of yourself and your body, allowing YOU to discover a whole new world- every turn a surprise, with new horizons to pursue. Learn about yourself in order to move forward with your personal desires!” Very well. My desire at the moment is to reach the capital; there's someone important I'm looking for. How should I proceed?
…showy, but useless. How practical is a spell that does nothing but add words to a sign? At least the boxes seem to serve some purpose now- “yes," “no," and “put it in." Strange choices, but a way to respond, in any case. I suppose it's worth a try. “Do you like your dinner fraught with mystery?” Does anyone? Of course not. Now I believe I asked about- hm. A new one. “Do you enjoy stimulating lakeside activities?” How does "Do you...?" answer my question? I fail to see- well. It responds quickly, at least. “Do you need a fabulous opportunity to show off those dresses you’ve always wanted to try on?” Of course not. This is getting a bit-
“Congratulations, you’ve completed the CFUD Personality Bush! You are the Ice Princess, and your heart is encased in a wall of frozen water that runs so deep it could sink the Titanic. Everything you touch freezes fast, shattering into a million tiny shards of bitterness, likely due to a past full of emo and wo-”
--for you? The freezing and shattering can be arranged.

Character: Jiroubou
Series: Naruto
Character Age: 14, Rly.
Canon: Ninja here, ninja there, ninja everywhere. Thus is the
Naruto universe, where it seems like at least 95% of the population is
skilled in the ways of…well, ninja. Said ninja are split into various
alliances and villages, which themselves are scattered throughout the
'Naruverse' world.
Jiroubou is a member of Sound village, one of the newer villages in
the Naruto world. He is the South Gate of the four cardinal guards
that protect the village leader, Orochimaru. As with his other three
comrades, he is experienced in barrier techniques; though he uses a
more physical fighting style to make use of his enormous strength.
During the series' "Sasuke Retrieval Arc", he was defeated in battle
by a fatal blow to the chest.
As a person, Jiroubou is seen as a traditionalist, most noted by his
constant scolding of the only female guard, Tayuya, on her dirty
language and unladylike behavior. What may be a bit of an inferiority
complex is evident, as any sort of insult to him is answered with
either a disapproving pout or (in the case of an opponent) outright
anger.

Entry 1 of ???
If you're reading this, you're probably in the same situation I am;
hopelessly lost in this hellhole of a swamp. If you're reading this,
you've also decided to ignore the 10 or so pages full of "Kilroy was
here" and "André the Giant has a posse" before this one. I can only
wonder how many people picked this up this old journal before I did.
In a last attempt to - for once - do something of worth, I'll leave
behind bits of information that may be helpful to whoever finds this
page. By the time I'm done, I'll probably have died of starvation or
something. So if you find a pile of bones or a corpse or a ghost next
to this journal…try not to touch it or anything. It's proper to leave
a body in peace, not go poking it with a stick or something.
Rule #1 of wherever this is: Do not eat anything.
Anything. Everything I've encountered here can
and will make you...well, it's a little hard to explain. Let's just
say it involves extreme abuse of limeriks and some very bad
dancing. Which only supports the idea that I'll starve to death long
before any predator gets to me, but that's another story.
If you can find a dry spot you could sautee the moss, though. Wouldn't
be that bad if you could add vinegar and perha
Shit, excuse the mud on the page. I just found something else that I
need to mention. Look out for pitfalls. If you don't, you will end up
in some very nasty swamp water. And you will be tasting said swamp
water for…what, three days? That's just how potent this bile is. On
the same note; birds. They'll try to distract you with insults while
you walk, and if they succeed you'll end up in a pitfall. Haven't
found anything that will make them leave; tried scolding them a bit,
but that only made them laugh harder and start throwing insults about
my mother (she is NOT so fat that people jog around her for
exercise!). Apparently they just don't care about proper…birdlike
behavior or something. What happened to sitting on tree branches and
singing instead of, say, trying to fly down my shirt? It's violating
AND improper! And I don't care what they say; I do NOT have
"moobs". Rrg, if I could catch a few I'd have them grilled for that.
I ended up tossing stones at them and they scattered for a few minutes
before coming back. Guess you could try that if they don't listen to
you.
As for other dangers, there's also…zombies. Twenty of them, about
seven meters away. Already spotted me. Trying to run for it, they're
chasing. Muttering to each other. "Side of sautéed moss would go
well". Are they really supposed to run this fa
I'll continue later. Right now I think I'll hide in this pitfall for -
oh, say - the rest of the night.

Character: Mizuki Ashiya
Series: Hanazakari no Kimitachi e
Character Age: 17
Canon: So one day, while watching the news, you fall in love with a hunky athlete but oh no, the Pacific Ocean is between you. What's a stalker fan to do? Catch a plane and crossdress to get into his all boys school obviously. It's this train of thought that lands Mizuki Ashiya in middle of Osaka Gakuen where she turns straight guys gay, has awkward midnight cuddle sessions and maybe, just maybe, lands her man with the help of convoluted shoujo plot.
Mizuki is the kind of girl who is maybe too compulsive for her own good. She doesn't really think things through but with determination and constant belief in the best of people she always finds her way. She spends most of her day hiding her oh so secret gender identity in the most manly ways (and failing at it) but always leaves just enough time to help her friends when they're in trouble. Mizuki is moved deeply by the strength of people and will fight to the bitter end to help them realize their dreams.
Sample Post:
Oh no, I'm going to be late for class! I took too long convincing those squirrels I couldn't be their bride and now everyone's going to make fun of me for sleeping in. I explained to them that I'm a boy but they just kept chanting "Trap bride! Trap bride!"
Now I'm lost in some forest and I don't remember the way back. I could follow the signs I'm seeing to the Drag King Gender Merry-Go-Round but even if they knew the way the signs say I would have to take a "long ride" with them first. Oh, what am I going to do? This place is probably full of weird animals and bugs and....No! I have to think positive! I WILL make it to school on time! I will be there before everyone and laugh when they enter the class! Nothing can stop-
Hey, are you all right? You look kinda sad. Of course I can stay here with you until you feel better. What can I do to help? Oh, don't feel bad about that! I'm not the brains of the class either but I bet we can do just fine if we try. Come on, we can walk together. Do you know the way? Ok, we can follow the lake until we find people.
Huh, a tentacle monster? Those really exist? We should probably stay away from it. Those things are always attacking schoolgirls and...uh I mean, not that us manly schoolboys need to worry about that stuff! Haha, yeah no big deal for us! Oh god. Huh, this one likes boys? Woo, I was worried for a minute there. I mean uh, bad. Yeah bad! Why isn't it attacking me? Uh, it's probably tired. Yeah, hahaha, it's tired. A girl? Nonono, Hear my manly voice? I couldn't be a girl.
Come on lake monster! He's starting to wonder! You only have to do it once. Touch me at least. Something! You...what?......Fine, I'll bring the rest of the dorm back with me next time. Just do it! Oh look, there it goes.
I-Iyaaaaaaaaan Wait, do guys go Iyaaan? That's probably really girly!

Character: Hanabishi Recca
Series: Flame of Recca
Age: 16
Canon: Flame of Recca is the story of Hanabishi Recca, a teenager with an obsession for ninjas and a dream to become one. What Recca doesn’t know is that his love for ninjas is due to his birth origin. Born 400 years ago as the son of Oka, leader of the hidden ninja clan, Hokage, Recca was thrown into the present time by his mother in order to avoid being killed during a sudden attack on his village. Now living in the present as the son of a fireworks manufacturer, Recca must learn to control the flame inherited at birth in order to protect his master, Sakoshita Yanagi from those planning to hurt her and find a way to remove the curse of immortality from his mother.
Protecting his master from enemies he never thought he would face and finding a cure for his mother’s immortality curse puts a huge burden on Recca, but that doesn‘t stop him from being his normal usual self. He’s still the loyal, determined, fearless, and occasionally slightly perverted Recca that his friends know. He can also be cocky and confident, but he gets the job done. He loves to fight and uses his ninja skills and fireworks taken from his father to win against his opponents.
Sample Post:
Okay! Creepy, smelly people with an equally creepy, smelly groan, there is something I want to know! WHY THE FUCK AM I HERE?! I was sleeping peacefully in my bed, at home, IN JAPAN! Then I wake up and find myself half way across the world! One of you guys explain to me right now how why I’m here!
Ooooh. I see. You guys just randomly decided to ship your body parts to some random country, to some random home and kidnap some random person, just for fun. And the idea was thought up randomly? Hahaha-YOU’RE ALL DEAD! Oh wait. You guys already are. Damn. Fine. Just take me to your exit and I’ll forgive you all.
…huh? There is no exit? I can’t leave? But there has to be an exit! I mean, if there is an entrance to this place, there must be exit. Entrance and Exit go together like peanut butter and jelly. One can’t be without the other. SO THERE HAS TO BE EXIT!
What? I can leave? Really?! Don’t scare me like that then! Sheesh. You guys almost had me there. Haha. Now, take me to your exit. What do you mean there is no exit? You just told me I could leave and-barrier? There is a barrier blocking the exit. And there is about 300+ people trapped here?! Where is this barrier? I’m going to destroy it and save everyone that is trapped here, wherever here is. And when Princess finds out about this, she’ll be mad, but happy that I saved so many lives.
Oho! So this is the infamous barrier that has so many people trapped here. PREPARE YOURSELF BARRIER! FOR YOU HAVE MET YOUR MAKER! I, HANABISHI RECCA, A HOKAGE NINJA, WILL BREAK YOU INTO MILLIONS OF PIECES AND FREE THE INNOCENTS YOU HAVE TRAPPED HERE! YOUR REIGN OF TERROR ENDS NOW! EAT FIREBALLS! What’s so funny?
Holy crap! Hothothothot! I see you’re really strong, Barrier. You managed to repel my fireballs. I can see why you have 300+ people here and none have managed to escape yet. But I’m not giving up. You’re going down! I’m going to fight fire with fire. Not literally though. I think. Behold! I can make a barrier too! So, scared now?
