[Schism]

Meet "Only the Rules Matta" Darby. Since he's a witty British man, he "doesn't care what you think about him" (raises eyebrow quite condescendingly as he entertains the idea). And if he does have an Achilles Heel, you'll only find out about it ten books later.

Now it's your turn.

 

[Madman Starryteller]

Boetica Sain Chanz does not appreciate the multi-galactic superstate the same way other Spherians do. She loves to hijack goods transports and get rich off of the very hard labour of Spherian citizens. When she isn't appropriating valuable items under blade point, she loves to go on vacations at the red seas resorts on the planet Gorom Ville Faulk. She is known as an animal lover and refuses to eat meat from facility slaughter houses. Hunting wild game is more okay for her.

 

[Rigor Mortis]

Big Mac is known to all the other inhabitants of Cillme Sloe as a slovenly, morbidly obese layabout who sits all day with the curtains drawn in the living room of his mother's cottage on the edge of a village nestled in the boglands of Ireland's uninspiring Midlands. By evening, though, in that momentary snap between light and dark, when the creatures of the netherworld step spritely from the shadows to pull at the loose threads in the fabric of reality, Big Mac has been known to fall asleep on his mother's sofa while watching reruns of Love Island, only to waken at 3 am to slouch his way upstairs to bed.

Bora: a powerful vampire that uses his abilities to swindle people. He thinks himself smarter than he is, constantly brags and is a very jolly fellow. He has a pet hawk (it is not tame and will attack him) and talks to himself.

All that blood goes straight to his thighs.

 

[Mogador]

Ge'eil [Geh-heel], a very old, worn down, barely sentient shell of a demon who for the past fifteen years has lived in the ticket disposal bin near the front of the no.29 bus that goes from the town centre to Bellinford estate, somewhere in Hampshire, England.

 

[Trish]

Her name is Sunrise Whistle. Well.... that ain't the name her mama gave her, but who cares what the old lady thinks? With a body like Jessica Rabbit has come to life, and the attitude of Sway (Gone in 60 Seconds for you non-movie youngins), she'll polish the chrome on your bumper and... other things. For an extra fifty bucks she'll even change your oil. Ahem, excuse me, your car's oil. Yeah.

And if you happen to have Eleanor, well... full ride, baby. On the house. As long as you let her drive.

Just don't tell Big Joe she's soliciting outside of the club, okay? He doesn't like it when he doesn't get his cut.

(How'd I do, @Homer Potvin ?)

 

[Naomasa298]

Dave. He's your local, lovable, and reliable drug dealer. He lives in his local supported accommodation (halfway house, I think they call them in the US) with his faithful brown bull mastiff, Ripper, and does his best to make sure his friends and local customers get their deliveries on time and are never left short. He and his group of friends, including Harry the House-Breaker, Mike the Mugger and Mindy the Madam do their best to keep their local community happy, while avoiding Sergeant Gunsmoke who is always trying to ruin their happy fun. Tune in at 8am every Saturday to see more of their whacky adventures!

 

[Lillacmess]

Grettle. She is the blacksmith's daughter on the outskirts of town. She has beautiful sharp features, straight long blonde hair and large honey brown eyes, but strangely pale skin. She loves to hang around near her father's workshop, but is on the fraile side and is unable to assist him. However, as a curious and intelligent young woman she loves asking strangers about their travels.

Often she will offer to walk travelers to the nearby inn a few miles from the smithery. During that time she will try to tempt all manner of the customers, from bulging coin pouches to revealing dresses to test their nature and intentions. If they succumb to temptation and try to hurt or take advantage of her, she then reveals her true nature. She shifts into an powerful albino owl bear, usually tearing the would be wrongdoer to shreds. She plucks out their hearts and returns home to make a powerful medicine from the harvested organ.

Nevertheless, if the traveler did not fail her test, then she bestows upon them some of her special medicine. It is said to ward off death if eaten passing the essence of vitality and life to those who truly deserve a second chance.

 

[Pik]

Tisma, I don't know if I should translate the name of my character. It's the person my main character meets and gets enchanted with when moving to another town. They're passionate and knowledgeable about everything, bravely imagining this new world but their radical views get out of control and have consequences for the regular people who just want to be happy.

 

[Kallisto]

Meet Sarah, the idealist. Sarah is brilliant young woman with a talent for science and heart to help others. She is the perfect person to start to find a cure for the zombie pandemic. But as each cure fails, Sarah crosses more and more ethical lines in determination to find the cure. She stops listening to others. She stops playing by the rules. She begins challenging other researchers. Over time, less and less her mission becomes about curing a horrible disease, and more and more about her being the one to do it.

 

[Rath Darkblade]

*drumroll* Presenting ... Brynja Olafsdottir, a struggling onion-farmer's daughter and wannabe Norse raider in Viking Norway. Brynja loves her parents, but longs to be part of a Viking longship, going on raids and having adventures like her (male) friends in the neighbourhood.

Brynja hates Harald Bjornsson, a wealthy trader's son just down the street. Bjorn is a rich smug sononvabitch and Harald, his son, has his toffee nose in the air 'cos his daddy's rich. So, she's frustrated by circumstance.

One day an English trade ship crashes on the shores of Norway, and everybody dies. But as Bjorn says, they're only stupid foreigners, so who cares?

Brynja grabs her father's shovel and comes down to the beach as soon as she can, in the hope of finding if she can help somebody. She can't. But there's no-one around yet, and she finds a shield and a maille hauberk that more or less fits her.

She can't lug all that stuff through town, or everyone will see and start asking questions. So, she buries it on the beach and strolls back into town, pretending that she just found the shovel.

Later that night, at midnight, when nobody is watching she digs up the stuff and admires it. She already has a spear that she uses to keep the wolves away. Now that she has a hauberk and shield, she can be a Viking warrior.

But Harald the stupid toffee-nosed git tries to ruin everything, and blame her for stealing it. Her reply? You have no proof, so nyah. ;-P

The whole thing blows up, and King Haakon the Good comes down himself to restore order. He orders a trial by combat -- first person to be wounded loses.

Brynja wins, and Good King Haakon declares her a true Viking and invites her on his next trip abroad. Huzzah!

(Sorry, once I started, I couldn't stop. ;-) And yes, it sounds like a cartoon - but all the names are plausible, and there actually was a King Haakon the Good of Norway, so it could happen. I even have a title for this story: "You've Got Maille!")

 

[Madman Starryteller]

Byz Berdott does whatever the heck he wants. Flip a burger? Sure, if he feels like it. Flip ownership of a space castle? Sure, if it's in his weekday plans. Convert a population of singular god followers into a population of multiple-gods followers? Yep, with a little force, conviction, and a smile that will make your aunt worried, he will do it.

 

[Pending]

Zxwyalley (Zx is silent so it's pronounced Wally) hates his name. Unfortunately, he is a mere middle schooler so he is stuck with it. His grandfather's neighbor is a wizard. Said neighbor has also stolen his (deceased) grandfathers identity. He spends a summer up there and gets into all sorts of magical trouble.

Zxwyalley is nervous and shy but gradually opens up to the magical creatures. He likes tinkering and gifts the magical creatures with simple mechanical devices. Except his "grandfather's" cat butler who hates him. In return, he hates the cat and tries to lock it outside.

He appears fairly average with shaggy brown hair and green eyes, but...nah. He's average. His last name is worse than his first, but he never tells anyone what it is. (Including you).
