Character: Ling Yao
Series: Fullmetal Alchemist
Character Age: 15
Canon: Ever thought your childhood decisions were questionable? Well, now you can rest assured in the knowledge that no matter what, a pair of fictional brothers did worse. After all, they tried to resurrect their dead mother -- and lost limbs and an entire body in the process. Determined to recover what was lost, Edward and Alphonse Elric set out on a quest to find the Philosopher's Stone -- an alchemy artifact that could potentially help them restore their bodies. As they search the country far and wide for information on it, the brothers end up entangled in far more than they ever expected, discovering links and connections to the past in the process and eventually saving their country from a large-scale government conspiracy.
A prince from the eastern country of Xing, Ling Yao is one of the many people the two brothers meet along the way. With his own objective to get his hands on the Philosopher's Stone and obtain immortality, Ling is a ruthless opportunist ready to take advantage of everyone and everything to get what he wants -- whether it be the stone in question, information, or food. Although he presents himself as casual and cheerful, goofy and constantly smiling, Ling is actually shifty, cunning, calculating, and overall dangerous. With the dream of seizing the throne for himself and becoming Emperor, he's ambitious, greedy, and incredibly determined. Despite the fact that he's power-hungry, though, Ling's motivations are at heart much more noble than what people would think: after all, everything he does is for the good of his people, who he cares for above anything else.
Sample:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
Mmm? I don't think there's that much to say... I don't really care about this question, so how about it? Let's skip and move to the next one!
Why are you joining our happy community?
There isn't much of a reason, really. I just heard a tale or two about this place and got curious is all. Actually, I wonder if you could help me with a little something? The tales I heard were about "undead people". I've got my own reasons for it, but I'm really interested in finding out more about their nature. Thinking about it, I might need a hand from an insider if I want to find out more … So why not help each other out? I'll finish the rest of this questionnaire for you like you want me to, and you tell me everything you know about them.
Do you think you are good in a crisis? Why?
Huh? What sort of question is this...? Of course I'm good in a crisis, I wouldn't make much of a ruler if I were the kind of person who panics so easily! Besides, even if it's scary enough that you'd call it a crisis, the only way to improve it is to think things through and solve it. Standing around like an idiot isn't going to do a thing.
Have you committed any crimes you were or should have been convicted from?
Hahaha ... what an interesting question! But thinking about it, I guess I technically am a criminal still. I crossed a border illegally and then broke out of jail after I got caught for it, after all.
Do you consider yourself squeamish? Please provide an example.
Squeamish? Not really, no. I'm used to the sight of blood and there isn't much that would gross me out to begin with. I don’t think I’d even be alive today if I were that weak-hearted. Living as a young teen is tough these days, you know!
What would you consider to be your “soul” animal and why? (this is for purely scientific purposes and will not have consequences during your stay at all. Trust us! :))
I'm not sure I believe it's for scientific purposes . . . but if you really want me to say it, I guess it should be fox or snake, right? People keep saying my eyes look shifty and suspicious, there's no way you can shake off the connection. It hurts though, you know! I've seriously ended up self-conscious over them!
Do you have any deep personal traumas you might inexplicably be compelled to share in this questionnaire? Please describe.
Oooh, are you worried for me? How touching! But I'm not really feeling compelled to share anything like that, no. If that's the case for you, though, I won't mind listening at all. Feel free to unleash your doubts or something like that. No need to be shy now, go on! Let’s be friends.
Character: Ice King
Series: Adventure Time
Character Age: Over 1000 years old
Job: Head Appraiser of Princesses
Canon: HE COMES FROM THE LAND OF THE ICE AND SNOW, from the Land of Ooo where the cold winds blow! ICE CROWN OF THE GODS--
Adventure Time is about Finn the human and Jake the dog facing off against the perils of a post-apocalyptic world. A thousand years after the Mushroom War, nuclear fallout has created kingdoms of mutants (who now come in the form of sentient plants, snow, fire, food, rocks, mermaids, and pretty much anything you can think of) and has all but wiped out humanity. It's up to Finn and Jake and their various cohorts to maintain the peace between the kingdoms and its denizens and be totally flippin' awesome.
But enough about those lame-os, the Ice King is really where it's at, what-what. Before the Mushroom War, the Ice King was once a man named Simon Petrikov. Simon was studying to become an antiquarian and purchased a jeweled crown from a dock worker in Scandinavia. Though its magical properties gave him ice-related wizard powers and helped him live over a thousand years, the crown buried all of Simon's memories and warped him into a strange, princess-obsessed old coot. Despite his sociopathic and narcissistic tendencies, the Ice King is typically upbeat and cheerful, if not extremely misguided. The Ice King craves affection and companionship above all else, but lacking any sort of social grace or morality, he usually tries to gain these through less than scrupulous ways. He can be extremely dense and delusional at times, not realizing just how much his actions hurt others; in his mind he's always doing the right thing. His warped sense of reality and short fuse can definitely make him dangerous, but overall the Ice King is just a silly old man who can't quite figure out why no one but his penguin minions (the majority of whom are named Gunter) seems to like him.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
Alright, alright, I'm leaving! I--
... Wait, wha--? No one's really asked me that before. I'm so used to everyone telling me to get out of their rooms and punching me in my cheekmeats or something. Well, I'm a totally hot babe called the Ice King. I like candlelit dinners and holding hands, and I'm wicked awesome on the dance floor, baby, oh yeah! Check these sweet moves! Unh!
Why are you joining our happy community?
I sensed you guys were having so much fun over here, so I thought, "I could really use a camp getaway for the summer, too!" And seeing that you've got all these hot mamas here doesn't hurt so much, either. So I used some Wizard magic to pop over here to par-taaaay! Look-- I even brought some floaties and I had Gunter bring along a pack of hot dog buns in case we have a rockin' beach palooza! But before I could shake my groove-thang, you came up to me and started asking me all these questions.
... I bet that means you're really into me, huh? Do you see my eyebrows wriggling? 'Cause that means I'd be interested in getting to know you, too. You wouldn't happen to be of royal blood, would you? A princess, maybe?
No?
Oh.
Well. That's alright, baby, everyone has their faults.
If there was a good dog and a criminal both hanging from a cliff and you could only save one, which would you save and why?
Hmm, that's a tough one. That's not a lot of information to go on. Like, what if the criminal was a sexy lady called Grand Larceny Princess who was just misunderstood and had a really deep personality? And once I waited until she swore to spend the rest of her life with me if I save her, what if she totally thought I was a brave hero and wanted to smother me in smooches and hugs and have a romantic dinner?
Say, where's this cliff, anyway?
Do you have a five year plan in mind?
Wowzers, this is all going so fast! Got a little jealous of cliff-lady, did we? Ho ho!
Well, I thought first we could cuddle a little, let my man-musk get all over you so those other dudes know you're all mine. Then, I was thinking we'd have a nice meal, probably some spaghetti or something. Maybe gazpacho? Then we could do the dishes together, then after a few hours I would propose and you'd start weeping salty tears of joy. And then we'd be married that night, and we'd explore the world together. Then for the other four years and 364 days we'd just settle down and have some adorable, precocious rug rats. I was thinking anywhere between ten and twenty would be a good number. We'll name the first one Chuckie.
Along the way we'd have some lovers' quarrels of course, but we'd work them out once I locked you in a dark and dusty dungeon or threatened to destroy you and all you cared about until you promised to love me again and stay with me for the rest of existence. Then we'd grow old together and die! And our spirits would float up and be together up there in Glob World.
Forever.
Forever.
foreverrrrr.
Whoa, what a crazy echo, huh? Anyway, we should get started. Time's a-wastin', sweetheart!
... Hey, where you goin'? Aww, don't do me like that, baby-girl! I thought we had something special! Please, don't go! I just want you to love me!
If you leave me, I swear I'll track you down to the end of time itself! And kill you!!!
...
Jeez, was it just me, Gunter, or was she coming on way too strong? Yeesh. Be a little less desperate next time, sister, am I right?
Character name: Gaius
Series: Fire Emblem: Awakening
Age: Mid twenties.
Job: Sugar Daddy
Canon: The kingdom of Ylisse's royal treasure is the Fire Emblem, an artifact known to be powerful enough to either destroy or save the world. When other countries seek to claim it for themselves, prince Chrom and his personal elite militia, The Shepherds, act to keep the peace. As if that wasn't enough, things take a turn for the worse when suddenly undead soldiers called "Risen" show up out of nowhere to rain death and destruction upon the lands. The Shepherds, led by Chrom, now fight as an army to protect not only the Fire Emblem, but the fate of the world itself.
Gaius the thief will do any job you give him, as long as you pay the right price. So naturally, leaving the enemy lines and joining the Shepherds for a bag of candy sounds totally legit... right? At least it is when you've got the mother of all sweet tooths. Because this man loves candy. And sugar. And cakes. Did I say candy? As long as it's sugary, he'll climb mountains to get it. But just because he likes sweets doesn't mean he won't grab the gold too. Gaius usually appears to be rather laid back and calm, but is also clear minded, creative and cunning. Though despite being a thief, he's got his own set of morals which includes not harming people without good reason. And even if he's not too fond of nobles, he won't judge someone right off the bat. He's social and enjoys spending time with people, and is somewhat of a tease, like when he dishes out nicknames just for the heck of it. He's also won't dismiss criticism and uses feedback from people to try and improve his skills.
Sample:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
Name's Gaius, Shepherd in Blue's ...er, Chrom's colourful little army. How about you? You're kinda hairy, for a welcome party. Speaking of party, you wouldn't know where they keep the confectioneries? I need to... line my pockets. If it's free, I'm not one to let an opportunity slip by.
Why are you joining our happy community?
Joining? Hey hey, I might be a sellsword in my free time, but I don't work without compensation. We should discuss the payment plan before there'll be any joining of anything. You say you have a nasty problem with pests— Oi... wait a second, are those Risen? You didn't say anything about that. You gotta raise the stakes if you want me to take care of that little problem for ya. How about I get those chocolate coins on the side and we'll call this a cakewalk?
What is your job here at CFUD? What do you think that means and why are you a valuable asset to this camp?
Sugar Daddy? That's like calling me the Candy Man, and I'm all okay with that if it means I get to supervise everything sugary in this place. I can even be your go-to person for all your confectionery questions and needs! 'Course, only as long as you share your loot. And asset? Any place needs someone who knows his sugar. If you've got an oven, I'll even make my own stuff. Just name your request and I'll name my price.
Do you have any deep personal traumas you might inexplicably be compelled to share in this questionnaire? Please describe.
Yeah? Loving sugar isn't always all sweets and cupcakes. For example gathering honey: you have to be stealthy and not make hasty movements. Trip-ups are so easy, like that time last week, ugh. Those were some hellish bees, I'll tell you. I can show you my bee stings, they're huge. I really thought I was going to die.
—oh, or when those pastries I pilfered got all smashed to crumbles in my pocket. That was the worst. No wait, the worst was when someone bumped into me and made me drop my ice cream. Especially since I didn't even paid for it that time!
If you could get away with committing one crime and suffer absolutely no consequences, what would you do and why?
I'd rob my favourite pastry shop because darn, those are some delicious cakes and I never have enough to go around. BUT. The little old lady running it is really sweet and I couldn't possibly do that to her. Oi, don't look at me like that. Believe it or not, I do have some damn principles.
Would you sample our new shipment of sweets?
What kind of sweets? Candy? Sugar? Cupcakes? Don't hold out on me here, that's just cruel. ...you know what? Whatever it is, as long as it's sweet, bring it. I'll make sure to sample it into next year. Might as well utilize this job title you gave me.
...
...
Ugh, that... was bland. Not to be a downer or anything, but you've got some strange powdery thing going for you with this. Crivens, I'd never thought I'd say this in my entire life, but I'm not a fan. Sure it's sweet an' all but you got to get rid of that taste of flour. Did you make it yourselves? Next time, if you share say... 50% of the end products, I'd be happy to provide expert advice in how to properly administer sugar.
Since sugar is permanently banned, will you use SPLENDA™ as a substitute?
................................. What? I'm sorry, I stopped listening after "sugar is permanently banned". Seriously, don't scare me like that. You almost gave me a heart attack. You think you're a charm pop, frightening people like that don't you?
Wait... you can't be serious— please tell me you're not serious. I won't believe someone would have the heart to deprive a poor man of his daily sugar. That's way to be a lemon-head and burst someone's bubble. No, it's worse. It's like taking candy from a baby. How can you do such a thing and live with yourself?
Character: Hanji Zoe
Series: Shingeki no Kyojin/Attack on Titan
Character Age: Never stated, but definitely an adult
Job: Things That Want To Eat You Specialist
Canon:
For the past hundred years, what was left of humanity had lived safely within the walls that protected their territory from the Titans--giants that once drove mankind to near extinction with their strange desire to consume human beings. While life within the walls had been relatively peaceful, everything changed completely when an extraordinarily large Titan breached the outermost of the walls humanity had been hiding behind for so long. To those that survived the attack it became apparent that mankind needed the Scouting Legion--the branch of the military that deals with Titans often as they brave the world outside the walls--now more than ever.
Those that join the Scouting Legion are signing up for an incredibly high-risk occupation, and Hanji Zoe is one of the few to survive long enough to become a squad leader. While many fight Titans fueled by pure hatred, Hanji finds them fascinating and wants to learn more about them. Her research excites her greatly, and she even grows strangely attached to the Titans she experiments on. However, while she may cry over having to inflict pain on her test subjects, she's still part of a group that specializes in killing Titans and takes humanity's safety very seriously. Though usually friendly, eccentric, and a bit of a rambler, she knows how to calm down and take a situation seriously.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
My name is Hanji Zoe. I'm a squad leader for the Scouting Legion, and I primarily focus my efforts on researching the Titans we fight. We've come so far in our knowledge of the Titans, yet when it comes down to it? There's still much we have to learn. You'd wonder how their limbs can support their weight, but we've found them to be surprisingly lightweight, which just raises a number of other questions. And while we've never been able to establish communication with them in any of our tests, is it really impossible? I certainly have my theories and I've run into a lot of interesting things in my work, and--
Oh, I guess this is turning into more than a few words...sorry about that!
Why are you joining our happy community?
To research the unusual creatures here, apparently. I don't really appreciate being pulled from my work on the Titans, but I do have to admit that what you have here is pretty interesting. Say, is anyone around here studying them? I'd love to see what they've found and contribute what I can if I'm going to be here...I wonder if they can communicate any better than the Titans I've worked with? I'd really like to see something like that! Getting to hold a real conversation with one of them or one of the Titans is probably one of the most exciting things that could happen to me...!
...But I bet it'd be pretty embarrassing to establish communication with one only to find out it didn't like the name I'd given it. I'll have to make sure to be careful about that kind of thing in the future...yeah, I'd better put some thought into the kinds of names they might like to have...
Do you think you are good in a crisis? Why?
I do. It's part of my job, after all...I mean, I could hardly handle my position within the Scouting Legion if I wasn't. I'm not overly serious like Corporal Levi, but I'm good at keeping a level head in a crisis situation, I think.
What if the crisis involved the end of the world? Please explain.
I don't think you realize the kind of pressure the Scouting Legion is under. If we can't keep the Titan threat under control, then humanity could very well be wiped out. Maybe the Titans will survive on beyond us, but I'd personally say the consequences of our failure would be close enough to the end of the world.
Do you consider yourself squeamish? Please provide an example.
Definitely not. I wouldn't be able to do my job at all--and I certainly wouldn't be able to conduct my research--if I were. I don't really enjoy performing the tests that involve harming the Titans we capture, but it's not because of that kind of thing. I just hate having to see the pain I'm putting them through! It's horribly cruel, especially since they don't even know why I'm hurting them and they can't even seem to properly express their feelings on the matter...

You say you have a nasty problem with pests— Oi... wait a second, are those Risen? You didn't say anything about that. You gotta raise the stakes if you want me to take care of that little problem for ya. How about I get those chocolate coins on the side and we'll call this a cakewalk?
What is your job here at CFUD? What do you think that means and why are you a valuable asset to this camp?
Sugar Daddy? That's like calling me the Candy Man, and I'm all okay with that if it means I get to supervise everything sugary in this place. I can even be your go-to person for all your confectionery questions and needs! 'Course, only as long as you share your loot. And asset? Any place needs someone who knows his sugar. If you've got an oven, I'll even make my own stuff. Just name your request and I'll name my price.
Do you have any deep personal traumas you might inexplicably be compelled to share in this questionnaire? Please describe.
Yeah? Loving sugar isn't always all sweets and cupcakes. For example gathering honey: you have to be stealthy and not make hasty movements. Trip-ups are so easy, like that time last week, ugh. Those were some hellish bees, I'll tell you. I can show you my bee stings, they're huge. I really thought I was going to die.
—oh, or when those pastries I pilfered got all smashed to crumbles in my pocket. That was the worst. No wait, the worst was when someone bumped into me and made me drop my ice cream. Especially since I didn't even paid for it that time!
If you could get away with committing one crime and suffer absolutely no consequences, what would you do and why?
I'd rob my favourite pastry shop because darn, those are some delicious cakes and I never have enough to go around. BUT. The little old lady running it is really sweet and I couldn't possibly do that to her. Oi, don't look at me like that. Believe it or not, I do have some damn principles.
Would you sample our new shipment of sweets?
What kind of sweets? Candy? Sugar? Cupcakes? Don't hold out on me here, that's just cruel. ...you know what? Whatever it is, as long as it's sweet, bring it. I'll make sure to sample it into next year. Might as well utilize this job title you gave me.
...

Ugh, that... was bland. Not to be a downer or anything, but you've got some strange powdery thing going for you with this. Crivens, I'd never thought I'd say this in my entire life, but I'm not a fan. Sure it's sweet an' all but you got to get rid of that taste of flour. Did you make it yourselves? Next time, if you share say... 50% of the end products, I'd be happy to provide expert advice in how to properly administer sugar.
Since sugar is permanently banned, will you use SPLENDA™ as a substitute?
................................. What? I'm sorry, I stopped listening after "sugar is permanently banned". Seriously, don't scare me like that. You almost gave me a heart attack. You think you're a charm pop, frightening people like that don't you?
Wait... you can't be serious— please tell me you're not serious. I won't believe someone would have the heart to deprive a poor man of his daily sugar. That's way to be a lemon-head and burst someone's bubble. No, it's worse. It's like taking candy from a baby. How can you do such a thing and live with yourself?

Canon:
For the past hundred years, what was left of humanity had lived safely within the walls that protected their territory from the Titans--giants that once drove mankind to near extinction with their strange desire to consume human beings. While life within the walls had been relatively peaceful, everything changed completely when an extraordinarily large Titan breached the outermost of the walls humanity had been hiding behind for so long. To those that survived the attack it became apparent that mankind needed the Scouting Legion--the branch of the military that deals with Titans often as they brave the world outside the walls--now more than ever.
Those that join the Scouting Legion are signing up for an incredibly high-risk occupation, and Hanji Zoe is one of the few to survive long enough to become a squad leader. While many fight Titans fueled by pure hatred, Hanji finds them fascinating and wants to learn more about them. Her research excites her greatly, and she even grows strangely attached to the Titans she experiments on. However, while she may cry over having to inflict pain on her test subjects, she's still part of a group that specializes in killing Titans and takes humanity's safety very seriously. Though usually friendly, eccentric, and a bit of a rambler, she knows how to calm down and take a situation seriously.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
My name is Hanji Zoe. I'm a squad leader for the Scouting Legion, and I primarily focus my efforts on researching the Titans we fight. We've come so far in our knowledge of the Titans, yet when it comes down to it? There's still much we have to learn. You'd wonder how their limbs can support their weight, but we've found them to be surprisingly lightweight, which just raises a number of other questions. And while we've never been able to establish communication with them in any of our tests, is it really impossible? I certainly have my theories and I've run into a lot of interesting things in my work, and--
Oh, I guess this is turning into more than a few words...sorry about that!
Why are you joining our happy community?
To research the unusual creatures here, apparently. I don't really appreciate being pulled from my work on the Titans, but I do have to admit that what you have here is pretty interesting. Say, is anyone around here studying them? I'd love to see what they've found and contribute what I can if I'm going to be here...I wonder if they can communicate any better than the Titans I've worked with? I'd really like to see something like that! Getting to hold a real conversation with one of them or one of the Titans is probably one of the most exciting things that could happen to me...!
...But I bet it'd be pretty embarrassing to establish communication with one only to find out it didn't like the name I'd given it. I'll have to make sure to be careful about that kind of thing in the future...yeah, I'd better put some thought into the kinds of names they might like to have...
Do you think you are good in a crisis? Why?
I do. It's part of my job, after all...I mean, I could hardly handle my position within the Scouting Legion if I wasn't. I'm not overly serious like Corporal Levi, but I'm good at keeping a level head in a crisis situation, I think.
What if the crisis involved the end of the world? Please explain.
I don't think you realize the kind of pressure the Scouting Legion is under. If we can't keep the Titan threat under control, then humanity could very well be wiped out. Maybe the Titans will survive on beyond us, but I'd personally say the consequences of our failure would be close enough to the end of the world.
Do you consider yourself squeamish? Please provide an example.
Definitely not. I wouldn't be able to do my job at all--and I certainly wouldn't be able to conduct my research--if I were. I don't really enjoy performing the tests that involve harming the Titans we capture, but it's not because of that kind of thing. I just hate having to see the pain I'm putting them through! It's horribly cruel, especially since they don't even know why I'm hurting them and they can't even seem to properly express their feelings on the matter...
