Character: Scott McCall
Series: Teen Wolf (TV Series)
Character Age: 16

Canon: Ah, the werewolf. Faster, heightened senses, a pack mentality, and the ability to kick a lot of ass, it makes sense that they would decide to hang out in a small town to do their business. Or maybe not. Yet somehow, small town Beacon Hills has found itself stuck with a werewolf problem. At the center of this is a teenager named Scott McCall. Recently bitten, he wanted the perks of the bite without any of the consequences: first string on the lacrosse team and confidence to land a great girlfriend. But for every good thing to come his way, so does something twice as bad.

Scott’s changed a lot since then. While he’s still sometimes caught up in little teenage things like failing school and having a secret girlfriend, he’s no longer the guy more focused on his selfish interests (his girlfriend and his image) than his best friend and his lycanthropy problem. Several tough situations helped him realize he can’t run from what he is, as it just leads to bad things. Scott’s guilt-filled insight has given him a strong sense of responsibility about everything. Always a touch too earnest, he’s kicked it up by ten notches with his desire to save anyone possible. At heart, Scott is sensitive and genuine to a fault—the fault in this case being that he’s not that smart, because this is the guy who thought bestiary wasn’t a real word, and laughed as he told his best friend that he clearly meant bestiality. Although Scott’s not without his temperamental moments, he’s different from the other, angrier werewolves, choosing to ground himself with love. Unlike just about everyone else, he’s determined to do whatever he can, and he has just enough optimism to make that happen.

Note: In
Teen Wolf, death and dying seem to smell similar to werewolves, so it’s hard to tell them apart.



Sample Post:

Wow, this summer school kind of sucks. I mean, okay, summer school is gonna suck anyway, but this place is weird and kind of like a mortuary. Just ... mostly outside instead of in. It’s kinda like they went out of their way to make us feel terrible for failing half our classes. Sometimes that just happens. Everyone hears horror stories about how summer school is gonna be, but this place really stinks—though, uh, maybe you guys can’t tell. From the looks of it, your ... noses don’t really work like mine. Or ... what was your noses, anyway. I thought for a second that if you didn’t have the nose in place you could smell better, but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t work that way. You need the directed filter, right?

Okay, yeah, so I admit that I don’t really know much either. But hey, stop looking so down. We’re in this together, just a bunch of guys trying to get by and maybe make the right grade. And sure, maybe you guys decided to act like this was your death march, but I hope I can make you feel better about yourselves before tomorrow’s class. I mean, I can ... kinda sense that the death thing is for real, but you’ve still got life in you. I promise.

Just—look, here’s the thing. With all that going on, you’ve gotta stop being so hard on yourselves. You’re not here to get brains, you’ve already got them. So, don’t worry about asking for more—just believe in what you’ve already got. And—okay, yeah, part of the pamphlet for this school said that you’re supposed to stay away from the walking dead if they get too friendly and this school’s name isn’t that encouraging either, but I think it’s some reverse psychology thing to keep you from giving up. They want you to keep going, to prove that you’ll make it out with ... well, at least a passing grade. Which is what we didn’t have before. But just give up on the brains thing, guys. Anyone can see that’s not actually a problem.

Anyway, if you’re still worried, you’ve got me. So, force your chins up even if I bet it’s kinda hard underneath all that make-up. Tomorrow, you’re gonna skip the costumes because you don’t need to act dead or ... I guess intimidating. The truth is, guys, there aren’t any monsters here that you have to worry about. Well, mostly—there’s still the teacher that we’re waiting on. So, trust me: it’ll be okay.

Character: Jun
Series: Heaven's Rock
Character Age: 20

Canon: Sometimes rock stars die young. Two popular bands, Sekitoba of the west and SHADOWS of the east, are each made up of extremely talented musicians but there's an almost bitter rivalry between them. While they're facing off, a Shinigami accidentally blows out the candles of four members- two from each band. These candles are representations of a person’s life; they have life expectancies marked on them and once blown out, the person dies. These four rockers are then taken to the agency to be processed for the afterlife. But none of these young rockstars want to move on, they want to live and keep living and so they are given tasks to complete in order to come back to life. While they do this, they learn how to work together and form a deep bond that brings them together in the end as a band called Heaven's Rock.

Jun was the bassist of SHADOWS and is now the cool bassist of Heaven’s Rock. He's your typical loner rock star who dislikes depending on others and seems to be apathetic towards everything except perhaps his bandmates. When he dies, he cares nothing about coming back to life and walks away from everyone with a sneer on his face. He’s unwilling to help, unwilling to be a part of getting them back to life and his first action is to always ask if people want to fight when they annoy him or are looking for a fight from him. But as the series progresses, we learn that his apathy and his hesitancy towards depending on people comes from being bullied as a child by girls. Because of this he closes himself off from caring about things on an emotional level and because of this he develops a complex where he can't talk to or face women at all. In fact, when faced with one he ends up losing all of his cool and reason. And loner he may be, but he opens up more and realizes that there are things to live for near the end of the series.



Sample Post:

Che. Did I die again? The last thing I remember is being in Osaka with the others playing for the last group stop in our tour. I swear, if it was another shinigami screwing around with my life I'm going to be pissed. That sort of thing can't happen twice in a row, can it? It's a stupid idea anyway, candles are way too easy to blow out. What if a wind actually comes sweeping on past? Whatever. At least the others aren't here with me so I guess that's a plus. It'll be easier if I have to deal with it on my own. None of that group dynamic is necessary and it'll take a shorter amount of time. Besides, I don’t think any of them can deal with the swamp scene. Even the other dead people here can’t deal with it from the way they’re moaning.

It doesn’t matter. I just need to figure things out, maybe retrace my steps so I can find a way to come back to life again. Do I even get a third chance at life if I died a normal death? Did I even die a normal death? It's going to take more time for the rest of my memories to come back to me if that's the case. That’s what happened the last time. Might as well explore a bit and see what I'm dealing with. Let's see, there's an exhibit for the exotic eight-armed dancer Marcy and a building with a sign right there, 'Center For Untimely Deaths.' Seriously? I think I’ll head for the building, but the shinigami are really running out of ideas on this one if they've set the process facility in a center this time. Or maybe they're trying to make things more legal this way. But I guess that answers the question on whether my death was normal or not.

They must have really screwed things up, though, if the line of dead people is this long. And what’s with this paperwork they want us to fill out? I don’t need to give my full name. I’m a rock star. We don’t have full names. We go by one and that’s how we become legends. Maybe one of these deadbeats can tell me something. Hey, you. I’m looking at this question right now and I don’t get why it’s asking me if I’ve ever turned into a donkey after touching a woman. So you might as well tell me if you know anything about this center and why the process is like this for coming back to life this time. They've obviously changed things around here so things might be different . . . hey, answer my question. Just having your back to me and moaning doesn't tell me anything. You're the useless type, aren't you? That kind of type gets on my nerves. Wanna fight?

I thought so. Tch! You're lucky I don't care enough to beat you senseless. You're annoying, but not that annoying. Maybe I can just listen to my iPod while I wait so I don't have to deal with-- Ahh! E-excuse me, I didn’t know you were a woman. Your eye, even though it’s hanging out of your face looks-- I'm-- I'm . . . going over here-- someone get me out of here now! Why does the afterlife have women in it?! Especially one that won’t stop looking at me! God, if you love me then get me out of here right now and I'll even write a song about you!

“A Little Less Touch Me And A lot More Guys,” how about that for a song title? Good, right? Just help!

Character: Tohsaka Rin
Series: Fate/Stay Night
Character Age: 16

Canon: In the small town of Fuyuki, a magical artefact called the Holy Grail appears on a semi-regular basis, resulting in a battle of attrition between seven magic users and their chosen Servants, heroic spirits from history and mythology. Only one can touch the Holy Grail and have their wish granted, and so naturally the best solution is to go around killing the competition. Fortunately, any good magus is quite okay with sacrificing people for their goals … or at least they should be. Tohsaka Rin, the magical prodigy of this particular version of the Holy Grail War, tries very hard to be the best ruthless magus she can be. Unfortunately, Rin's desire to win the Fifth Grail War are in conflict with her caring about the citizens of Fuyuki and wanting to protect them from the inevitable fallout, placing her in an unenviable position.

Rin aspires towards being coolly aloof and dismissive of her fellow students while effortlessly annihilating them in just about any area. She’s very good at appearing this way to her classmates and teachers, with few believing that the perfect honors student is also a fiercely competitive girl whose aloof comments can cross over from dismissive into irritated or sarcastic commentary on a person’s flaws or the sheer ridiculousness of a situation and hide a very impressive temper. However, the “true” Tohsaka Rin is a far more complicated girl: caught between her self-imposed isolation as the gifted Tohsaka magus who should be able to sacrifice anything to achieve her goal and her own innate sense of fair play and compassion, Rin confuses most people, including herself. While her words may be very pragmatic, Rin’s actions belie the idealism at her core: she would rather protect than destroy.

For the canon familiar: Rin is taken from the Unlimited Blade Works route of the visual novel.



Sample Post:

A magus’ workshop is a reflection of their inner soul, and from what I’ve seen of Elizabeth Sayre’s … well, there’s no other way to put it. It’s ugly. Further, all she can create are inelegant things. I include you in this, Mister Toucan, despite not being able to see you, of course. I understand that you're only doing what you're told, but that hardly excuses Sayre arranging for her familiars to tie up a helpless girl on her arrival. Don’t interrupt me while I’m thinking, a girl’s mind is her inner sanctum and if you absolutely must listen in then you shouldn’t complain about what you see or hear in there. Further, that was not how my capture happened, listen closely as I tell you for the third time what happened.

No, as you already know, I don’t have anything better to do, as you or one of your accomplices have tied me to a chair. How can you forget that? Ah, it’s so embarrassing to be caught in a trap by familiars so stupid! It’s my own fault for not paying attention. I should have known that anyone able to use dimensional magic like she claimed would be world famous! But, as a responsible magus of the Tohsaka line, I had to come and test my skills against her; I couldn’t not after an invitation like that! Unfortunately, as you keep reminding me, I was attacked by gorillas immediately on arriving, gorillas already briefed with what I can do, leaving me in the terrible position of having to sit here in your company, Mister Toucan, with the only thing left for me to do is to test the bonds before I suffocate.

Oh, didn’t I mention that? It’s why I haven’t said anything aloud yet. The gag is too tight and I’m suffocating. Sayre’s going to be really mad if I die like this; after all the effort to capture me, including tying me up to make sure that she could find me, she must really want to see me. So shouldn’t you be checking to make sure I’ll be alive for her to meet? It’s no good trying to read my mind for it, you’ll have to check for yourself. After all, what do you have to be afraid of, aren’t I tied up? ...ah, there you are! Gotcha.

Yes, of course I lied about my hands being tied, as well as the gag being too tight. You should have checked my hands first. Intelligence is very useful, but only if you remember to use it, rather than blindly relying on others to tell you the truth. And stop complaining, I just inflicted a curse on you, and you should only feel sick for a day. It’s your own fault for tying me up, you know, geez. Now tell me. Where is Elizabeth Sayre? If you don’t tell me, then the last time you’ll have flown will be from bird flu.

Character: Hamel
Series: Violinist of Hameln (manga version)
Character Age: 18

Canon: Violinist of Hameln is a mix of epic fantasy and over the top comedy. As evil demons threaten to enslave humanity, a great hero and his friends embark on a journey. They travel to the grim Northern Capital in order to defeat the demon armies and save the world.

The hero in question is Hamel: a virtuous musician, son of the Demon King and a human woman. Armed with a huge violin, he plays magic music to fight demons. Though he calls himself a hero, his personality is hardly heroic. Hamel is arrogant, selfish, rude, and generally a huge bastard. He has no problem using his powers to scam people and abuse them for his own amusement, and even his friends aren't immune to bullying and public humiliation. Deep down, however, Hamel is actually a good guy. His obnoxious attitude makes it hard to believe, and he has troubles opening up to people, but he still cares deeply for his friends. No matter how big of a jerk Hamel is, in the moment of truth he'd do anything for his loved ones.



Sample Post:

Greetings, residents of Camp Fuck You Die! I, the great hero Hamel, have graciously accepted Mrs. Sayre invitation to come and help you with your zombie problem! Don't take it lightly, I had to take a big detour from my heroic quest and the journey was long and hard. Plants tangled my feet and I almost drowned in the swamp… but just when I thought I was completely lost, a lovely toucan showed me the way. He spoke such encouraging words inside my head, it brought tears to my eyes. We became very close. Such a shame that he's gone. What happened? Well, I ate him. I was going without food for a day! Ah, my feathery friend, I shall never forget you. You were so delicious.

Hey, what's with that look?! I don't think you appreciate what I'm doing for you! The humidity here is bad for the strings, but I'm going to save your ass anyway. This place really needs saving. The setting could use some improvement - maybe the ladies can wear their most see-through nightgowns and run around screaming, for fanservice. You need to show some flesh, and I'm not talking about the zombies.

Oh yeah, I was going to save you, wasn't I? Right, I'll play a requiem that will tear those zombies apart and send them back to their graves… wait, what the hell? They aren't supposed to pull themselves back together, that's not fair! Fine, I think I'll make them dance for me instead! Yeah, that's right, assholes, do the cancan! Try to pick up your fucking legs now, hahahaha! Losers!

…Well, that was fun. Those guys are natural. No need to thank me, my job is to please the audience! Oh, and everyone here owes me ten thousands dollars, 'cause great shows like that don't come for free. Here's the bill and don't worry, if you don't have cash I accept checks and credit cards. Don't have that either? No problem, I also accept jewels, kidneys and your firstborn child.
