Character: Lily Evans (Potter)
Fandom: Harry Potter
Character Notes:
History:
Lily Evans was born January 30, 1960 to Muggle parents, at least a couple years younger than her sister, Petunia (who she called “Tuney”). Lily found that she was able to do strange things as a child, and it was when she met a young Severus Snape that he explained that she was able to do such things because she was a witch. He told her that he was a wizard and the pair soon became close friends. Despite their friendship, she was still mad at Snape when he (whether intentionally or not) tapped into his untrained magical skill and caused a branch to snap off and hit Petunia’s shoulder. On her first train ride to Hogwarts, she met James Potter and Sirius Black, quickly finding that she didn’t particularly like either of them for how they were treating Snape.

Not much is known up until her fifth year beyond that she was named Prefect and has been best friends with Sev (as she calls him) and defends him from her friends, especially every time he calls her a Mudblood (she makes excuses for it). Somewhere in March or April of her fifth year, she heard about James saving Snape from going down the passage covered by the Whomping Willow, but she told Snape that she didn’t believe his theory of Lupin being a werewolf, with his illnesses falling on the full moon of every month. A few months later, she was witness to James, Sirius and Snape hexing each other and after Lily’s defense of the latter, him calling her a Mudblood once more. That night was the final straw. He waited for her and threatened to sleep outside the Gryffindor tower entrance if she didn’t come see him, so she did. It was that night that she finally dug into him for his Death Eater friends and made it clear that their friendship was over. In her sixth year, she most likely started getting to know the Marauders better through Remus, her co-Prefect of Gryffindor. By her seventh year, she was the Head Girl and finally gave in and started dating James Potter, the Head Boy. From there, the rest is history. She had finally fallen completely in love with him, they got married sometime between late 1978 and early 1979, and Harry was born July 31st, 1980. On Halloween of 1981, Pettigrew betrayed the Fidelius Charm protecting his friends to Voldemort and soon after James was killed, Lily was also murdered, protecting their son, giving him a strong protection that lasted for years, even when it came to the final battle at Hogwarts.

Personality:
Lily is best described as a bit of a “neutral” justice figure. While she may be biased toward her friends, the division of the four houses doesn’t stop her (a Gryffindor) from sticking up for her friend, Severus Snape (of Slytherin). She seems to have her own strong ideals of what’s good and what’s bad, given her very vocal disapproval of Snape’s Death Eater friends and Potter’s and his friends’ idiotic ways. In a way, she really does live up to her Prefect badge, and the later award of Head Girl. So she does take power seriously and doesn’t appear to abuse it.

She’s very selfless and modest, her future son being noted to have taken on these qualities of hers (despite what Snape may say or think). In addition, she’s a kind and loving individual, but when she gets pissed… it’s not a side most want to be on as her temper flares up.

On another side of things, she sometimes doesn’t like to acknowledge some ugly truths about her friends, such as all her friends have to say about Snape and some of his behaviors that she knows of personally. It might also explain why she denies Snape’s theories of Lupin being a werewolf… until she gets any solid fact for herself, besides that the story was probably what the staff puts out, including Dumbledore, who I assume she probably trusts explicitly within the staff, as he is the Headmaster.

She's got another side, as revealed by Professor Slughorn, who had favored her. Whenever he said she should have been in Slytherin, she would shoot back some cheeky reply, showing that if she was familiar enough and on good terms with a professor, she had no trouble being a smart mouth with them. Lily is also described as being funny, charming and brave. Someone who nearly everyone who knew her, liked her.

Other:
Lily is a very bright witch with a load of talent, enough so that she impressed the Potions Master, Professor Slughorn and became one of his favorite students with her talent for potions.

Her wand is listed as being good for Charms, so it's possible she may have excelled in that class as well.

Additional history: Some time after graduation, she was inducted as a member of the Order of the Phoenix as well as James and his friends and a number of others.

For Dramadramaduck purposes, Lily will be taken from the same point as the current Marauders of the Harry Potter cast, which I believe is between their fourth and fifth year.

First Person (entry type): I just got my book list and welcome back letter to Hogwarts this afternoon. I was surprised to find a small badge tucked in with an additional letter enclosed with the rest. Would you believe I’ve been chosen to be a Prefect? I can’t wait to tell Sev the good news.

Mum and Dad are happy for me, even though I had to explain what it means to be Prefect. I tried to tell Tuney too, but she only gave me a dirty look before walking off to ring her boyfriend. I wish she would have at least said something….

Still, I can’t wait to get back to school and see who the boy Prefect is for Gryffindor. …If it’s Potter or Black, I’ll have a word with McGonagall, see if she can reassign the position to someone more reasonable or tolerable.

Third Person: Lily stared down at the journal she had just written in and was shocked to find ink in someone else’s hand surface on the page below what she had written. It looked like a reply. But that couldn’t be right… she was certain her mother had picked this up in a Muggle shop, and books weren’t supposed to write back.
Curiosity getting the better of her, she picked up her quill once more and wrote a reply back. Within minutes, more replies appeared. Lily stared at the paper and began flipping through the pages. Near the back was a whole long list of messages based on different topics. There were even moving pictures, complete with sound! She knew pictures could move in the Wizarding World, but she didn’t know they could make noise! Carefully, she prodded one of the pictures with her quill and it let out a blast of sound. Slamming the book shut as her heart pounded, Lily waited a few minutes before reopening the book and turning to a fresh page. Only three words formed her new message. “What is this thing?”

Character: Henry
Fandom: No More Heroes
Character Notes:
History:
Henry is actually Travis's twin brother. How they were separated is never explained, nor does it mention his real last name, but it can be assumed that since their family was so fucked up anyway, separation was the least of their worries. Henry was raised in Ireland, far far away from where his twin was raised (California). He reveals himself to Travis as an assassin during one of Travis's ranked fights, purposely stealing one of his kills (and was dubbed Sir Henry Mother-fucker for doing so). Ever since then, Travis has been out for his brother's blood, seeing him as an arch rival of sorts, but Henry doesn't really see Travis as much of a threat. In fact, he brazenly duels Travis at the end of the first game, spilling all the facts of his life, like how Sylvia is actually his wife and has a child (named “Jeanne”, which is totally not weird). And that they are indeed twin brothers. The fight results in what seemed like a double homicide.

Which it obviously wasn't, as the second game featured Travis as the main character, and Henry as a playable character.

When we first see Henry in the second installment, he is a lifeless carbonite statue attached to an incredibly phallic machine named “Dr. Letz Shake”, who did this as a means of vengeance continued from the first game (because Henry destroys Dr. Letz Shake in the first game). Henry is rescued by Travis, and is even given a chance to recover from his freezing, though Travis claims that he doesn't really care for Henry's life. These two aren't exactly the type to hug it out and have a reunion, anyway. Ever since Travis got over his desire to kill his rival, Henry formed a mutual respect for his other half, and helps him when he feels he truly needs it. He seems to be keeping a close watch on him, appearing at a certain moment at the last boss fight: The boss, Batt Jr., presented three decapitated heads on silver platters to Travis, one of them being Henry's, and Travis gets super emotional/angry. But just a little while later, Henry bursts into the room, and admonishes Travis for being deceived by such a cheap trick.

As the boss fight progresses to the final (and most ridiculous) stage, Henry merely stands by and watches, not wanting to be involved with such a “travesty.” He claims “to have standards, for fuck's sake.”

Personality:
Henry is the epitome of the cool, strong-willed assassin. His movement is quick, fluid, and professional, using as little energy as possible to execute the killing blow. He's not very showy, but the beauty of his movement is in the simplicity. When he speaks, he's a bit condescending, but he is honest, mature, and over-all a very normal guy... which is weird, considering his job and what he deals with on a day-to-day basis. Being a professional assassin, he shows very little emotion to his targets, wanting nothing more than just to get the job done cleanly. His notable kills include Shinobu's father (this is just an assumption, albeit a very probable one), Letz Shake/Dr. Letz Shake, & Mimmy.

He appears very forgiving to those he cares about, namely Sylvia and Travis, where Sylvia has been running around conducting shady assassin games (and promising Travis sex), and where Travis has wanted to kill him. His reaction to all of these odds are fairly mild, usually sighing heavily and seeming somewhat annoyed at the worst. Henry doesn't even mention Sylvia or their divorce in the second game, but one can only imagine how strangely boring and civil their argument leading to their divorce might have been.

Other:
Henry's most notable physical ability is his speed. When fighting, he can execute extremely powerful moves while covering a huge distance. His athleticism is greater than Travis's, and his movement is less predictable than Travis as well.

First Person (entry type):
Life is just so good to me these days. I mean, all things considered, it's really not that bad. My job is becoming redundant and boring, my wife left me, I have reoccuring nightmares of little girls fused with robotic arms, and I'm still recovering from some nasty burns from a very unfortunate incident with carbonite. At least my brother isn't trying to kill me anymore, aye? Things are looking up.

By all means, I am not complaining. I'm still alive, and I still get paid to live comfortably for myself. So like I said earlier, it's not all bad, really. I'd like to say it's mostly the job. The job is not quite like how it used to be. There used to be such excitement in getting work, since they used to be so hard to come by. It wasn't commonplace. When you received your job, you relished it, knowing you'd be paid well for it. Now it's just... do this, do that, get a little cash to tide you over until the next big job. There's no fucking love for the work, you know?

Anyway. That's all my bellyaching for the week. I've been meaning to try a new restaurant in midtown. Some Peruvian place. I hear it's worth the walk.

Third Person:
It was bright and sunny for the third time this week.

Henry tugged at his collar and tie, beads of sweat rolling down his neck. He was all for casual dressing, but when he was on the job, he was very particular about his dress code. Always professional. Always clean cut and ready for business. Unfortunately, it also involved wearing a wool vest over his button up shirt, a tie, and a pair of matching wool slacks. His shoes were black, shiny and well polished. It definitely wasn't beach wear and he had to admit... he was dying.

To keep his mind off the sweltering heat, he kept focused on the job at hand. His hand on his Cross Sword, he made his way to an old abandoned warehouse, where his job would take place. Without making so much as a crunching sound on gravel, he infiltrated the building and watched a group of men from the shadows.

There wasn't much to hide behind, but the lighting was so poor, that it didn't make any difference. He waited until their guards were down; they whispered frantically amongst each other, their eyes shooting wary glances at the darkness around them.

Henry tried to ignore the fact that it was hotter inside the warehouse than outside, and drew his weapon. Grabbing an old iron wrench from off a shelf, he hurled it at the light fixture above the men, shattering the bulb and darkening the area.

The men panicked, yelling and rustling about, providing the perfect amount of chaos. A flash of gray, and one man fell to the floor. Another flash, and two more men fell, their bloody heads rolling around on the ground. The last man remained, whimpering fearfully as he searched for the nearest exit. The deafening sound of calm footsteps reverberated through the room, and the man panicked some more, looking over his shoulder to catch a glimpse of his attacker.

“There's nowhere to run,” said Henry quietly, a glowing beam saber in his hands.

The man screamed as the sword plunged through his heart, and gasped his last breath as he lay on the floor. Henry made a gasping sound of his own, wiping the sweat off his brow.

“Ugh, I could really use a cold one.”

Character: Mallorie ‘Mal’ Cobb
Fandom: Inception

Character Notes:

** SPOILERS FOR THE MOVIE INCEPTION **

History:
There’s a world, the world Mal exists in, that has the technology to take any person into another’s dreams and steal away their secrets. Dream-sharing used to be more of a legitimate and legal sort of job. But once the true potential of dream-sharing was unlocked, companies began to use it to steal the ideas of competitors and plot ways to demolish all competition.

But before it all fell apart, Mal was a part of something beautiful. Her father, Miles, had connections to dream-sharing technology and often times shared his skills with his daughter. He taught his daughter how to create worlds in dreams. How to manipulate them into anything of her own desire. How to use the technology for good rather than illegal processes. And once a person began to use the technology, it was hard not to become addicted.

That’s why it was no surprise that one of Mal’s classmates at her father’s architecture lessons became as addicted to the world of dreams as Mal did when Miles showed him what his architecture could do in a dream. Dreams were something that Architects adored when they realized the true potential of accessing your dreams. Of getting in between the perceiving and creating process the mind does when asleep to completely take over the creation and create worlds out of nothing. To create cathedrals and skyscrapers where none stood before and things that could not exist in reality. Pure creation.

Mal and Dominic were the best architects in the school. And they had the added bonus of dream-sharing. They spent hours creating entire worlds in their dreams and making up their own realities until one day, they fell in love. With their true nature and abilities unleashed in dreams and their true selves exposed to the other, it was no surprise how fast and how deeply the two fell in love. And even less of a surprise when Dom proposed to Mal, telling her that he dreamed of them growing old together.

From there the two began to build their life in reality. They had two children, Phillipa and James. And moved to the States where Dom was born and raised to raise their own family. Coming from wealthy families and with abilities like theirs they had no problems acquiring money to build their dream house with the porch that opened up into the beautiful wilderness where the sun always seemed to shine.

Their life was perfect.

And their dreams were just as beautiful.

But their true potential in the dream world had yet to be reached. They tampered in dreams within dreams constantly. But Dom wanted to keep going deeper. To keep going past what they originally built and create more. And Mal followed him down. One level. Two. Three. And then limbo.

Limbo is four dreams into the dream world. But it’s the last level you can reach. Not that you would ever want to leave it.

For most dreams the architects design the world before hand and play with it inside the dream. But when they reached the shores of limbo they encountered nothing. Nothing but their raw subconscious. This world was empty and entirely theirs to build and create.

And they did. For 50 years they built their dream world. Full of skyscrapers and modern and old designs and houses in a modern skyscraper with a porch that overlooked the world. For fifty years, the dream had become their reality.

Edited 2010-08-05 03:40 (UTC)

But a dream could never be real. And the thought began to plague at Mal’s mind when she would think of how her perfect world could never be real. So she went deep into her own mind, where she locked away her totem. A top that spun endlessly in a dream. And she set the top down in a safe and locked it away so that it would never spin again. And just like that, her dream world became reality.

Dom was not so easy to convince. He knew they would one day have to awaken, but Mal couldn’t accept that her world wasn’t real. The thought was too deep in her head to change. So Dom went looking for her secret. He went deep into her head until he found that top and he spun it again, locking it in her head again. Only this time, it would never stop spinning.

With the idea that her reality wasn’t real anymore, Mal carefully let Dom lead her to the train tracks outside of their perfect city. She let him lay her down on the tracks next to him. She held his hands tight as they whispered words of encouragement to each other, ignoring the rattling of the tracks. And then-

She woke up.

Something was very wrong, though. And Dom and her both felt it immediately. She couldn’t seem to focus on her world anymore. Everything was so…. Wrong. Something was very wrong.

This wasn’t her real house. Those aren’t her parents. Those children are just projections. This world. It’s not real.

Mal couldn’t make the thought go away. She couldn’t let it go. Everything didn’t feel right anymore. And she never understood why. But all she knew was that she had to die one more time, to wake up one more time and then her and Dom could get back home. They could see their real children again.

But Dom refused to go with her. He refused to take that leap of faith because of the children that weren’t real. So Mal had to take that choice from him. To free him of the thought that those projections were their children. She set in motion a plan. A plan that involved three Sane proclamations by three certified psychiatrists and a letter to her attorney, one that said that her husband was dangerous and threatened to kill her.

Then all she had to do was wait at the hotel on the eve of their anniversary. Sitting on the edge of the balcony as Dom discovered the broken and destroyed room across from her. That’s when he saw her on the balcony. When he begged her to go back inside. But she told him of her plan, of the letter and how she made it look like he killed her so that the only choice he had left to make was the one to be with her because they would never let the man who murdered his wife return to his children.

And with nothing to hold her back anymore, Mal jumped.

Mal didn’t wake up. And Dom never saw her funeral, having to flee the country because of that damned letter.

From then on Mal became nothing more than Dom’s projection of his own guilt. She was a being that sabotaged every job he had so that he was always running from someone somewhere. She was a being locked in his dreams and kept there by him to keep her living. She was a being that plagued his mind and told him pretty nothings of the reality he was missing. If only he’d die. If only he’d come get her.

She would always be waiting for him.

Personality:
“What was she like in real life…?” “… She was lovely.” (pre-canon Mal)

Mal is such a complicated, complex, and simply divine woman that it’s really hard to give her just one trait. Lovely is a term that encompasses so much of Mal, but leaves so much of her unknown.

A further definition of ‘lovely’ would be Mal’s genuine kindness and compassion towards others. She is a woman who always treats others with high regard and dignity, feeling that every human being has their place in the world. And coming from a family that is experienced in dream sharing, she has grown up knowing that there are always two sides to people, and you may be missing an entirety of a person just from what you see in reality.

Her nature is that of someone who is light and carefree when she so desires to be. She can be very teasing and sweet, and chooses to look at matters from a simpler sort of standpoint. But when it comes down to it she is also a woman you would want on your side in a pinch.

Mal is clever. She’s so very receptive of the world and dreams around her that it has shaped her entire personality and designed her to be fast-thinking and always developing what she sees. It is was she studies architecture under her father, a skill that comes in handy in her dreams.

Under pressure, Mal can be cool and calculating. In her head. Her mind can evaluate situations regardless of the circumstances. But sometimes her personality falls a little short of this. She can get overwhelmed and hysterical if people put too much pressure on her in a pinch, but rarely truly violent or angered. If she gets a moment to breath and people are breathing down her neck she can accomplish anything she sets her mind to.

When it comes to her anger she handles it in two ways depending on the situation. Where wit and grace could easily give her the upper hand, she can behave calmly and coolly and generally reacts with a harsh tongue. But if it’s a situation out of her control she will sometimes resort to screaming and yelling if she’s feeling like she’s not being heard. It only takes a breath or two to calm herself before she tries to manipulate people into believing her views of things.

Mal is so easily moved between different states of emotion that its hard to ever really pin her behaviors. Her moods are easy to sense, but her reactions can vary and be so complex that you never see them coming. This is why she is such a beautiful woman.

“That’s quite a subconscious you’ve got on you, Cobb! She’s a real charmer!” “Oh. So I see you’ve met Mrs. Cobb.” (canon Mal)

The Mal of reality and the Mal of Dominic Cobb’s subconscious share similarities and huge differences that make them seem like two different people sometimes.

After Mal’s death she takes on an entirely different personality it seems. Her driving forces in life are not only Dom’s memories of her desires but Dom’s own guilty conscience that devours her entire being.

The Shade of Mal is very similar to Mal in behavior. When she’s not threatened. And when dealing with situations beneficial to her. But when things get beyond her control, when they don’t go according to plan, or if someone invades Dominic’s subconscious unwelcomed, she can turn vicious.

When Mal turns vicious it’s a frightening sight to see. The manipulation used in her former life is now used to twist and distort people’s emotions and wills into things they can’t even trust in. Her violent outbursts can be loud and screaming and uncontrolled, or soft and disturbing and full of threats said with a pretty smile. Mal doesn’t respond well to the questioning of her reality, and she is not afraid to stab or shoot anyone to either kill or cause pain. If it gets her what she wants, she’ll do it without hesitation.

That’s not all the Shade is. The Shade can be much like the real Mal at times. It’s just always wise to play it safe and careful with what you say around Mal. If she feels threatened, her personality will change in an instant and it’s really hard to talk her back down.

Other:
- I’ll be taking Mal from during her time in limbo as a way to work the community into her madness as well.

First Person (entry type):

[The scene opens up to a woman walking into a kitchen/dining room area of what appears to be a very nice and well-kept house. She enters without even noticing the computer at first, taking out a bottle of red wine and pouring herself a small glass. She pauses though as she sees the computer sitting on the kitchen table, eyeing it curiously as she takes a sip of the champagne.

Finally she approaches the table and pulls the chair out, turning the laptop to face her now. Behind her you can see that instead of her porch opening out into a wide green yard, it opens out into nothing with large skyscrapers in the background.

For a moment Mal spends some time skimming through the posts that’s on the community before she starts to smirk a little, laughing slightly at the absurd idea of worldhopping.]

Is this my invention? [She muses with a smile.] Or something my Dom thought up. I don’t remember making this. But I like the idea. Maybe it is both of ours.
If I’m reading this correctly, this is a community for people from different… worlds? Correct? [It’s hard to miss the heavy French accent. Really heavy, with heavy emphasis on the vowels and slight pauses as she thinks to word things correctly.]

But it does beg the question. Does this place exist only because we imagined it?

[She seems to focus on this thought heavily now, drifting off as she sips at her champagne before looking back at the camera.]

Either way. My name is Mallorie Cobb. But please, call me Mal. [She smiles at the video.] And it is lovely to meet all of you.

Third Person:

Salt water lapped at the young woman’s feet as she stared out across the horizon. The horizon of the world she created. So that the sun set on it’s beauty every day and rose again every morning to reveal nothing but the perfection that Mal and Dom had so desired.

It was almost unbearable how perfect their world had become. It was so full of so much that she could hardly believe it had come from only her and Dom and their endless creation. But it had. And it was all theirs. No one else could even imagine the world they had created together. Because nothing else compared to it. It was full of things that shouldn’t exist but did. And full of their memories.

It was wrong to create from memory. They both knew it was a bad move, that creating from memory blurred the lines between reality and the dream. But both were addicted to their own creation that they couldn’t bare to put a stop to any of it. To let those memories crumble and fade when they could exist in their reality.

Because it was real to her. Every bit of it was real to her now. The water that sprayed against her face with the wind’s movements, the sand that buried her feet before crumbling away in the tide. All of it was real.

Even the train that flew past their city every day at sunset.

She turned her back to the ocean now and smiled that soft smile of hers as she saw something else that was real. Or someone else. Her husband. Her beautiful Dom in all his glory approaching her from the city, looking just as happy to see her as she was to see him.

“Were you missing me?” She smirked slightly. As though she didn’t already know the answer.

Dom swept her up in his arms and she kissed him with a delighted laugh.

Oh yes. This was all to real.

Character: Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, a.k.a. Radical Edward, a.k.a. Ed.
Fandom: Cowboy Bebop

Character Notes:
History: MYSTERIOUS HISTORY OF MYSTERIOUSNESS: Ed wandered into an orphanage, wandered out. Presumably spent some time with her father. Then she became a reknowned hacker, able to HACK ANYTHING MWAHAHAHA. Then she got bored, hacked and tricked her way onto the Bebop, and hung out. And hung upside-down. And did cartwheels. And made friends with the dog. And hacked some more stuff. Then she ran into her dad again, and not long afterwards, wandered off the Bebop.

Personality: Insane. Genius level insanity. She's a kid, but she can hack into pretty much anything. "Pretty much" meaning that there was never anything in the show she wasn't able to eventually work her way into. She also has a real head for technology in general, knowing the specifics of a VCR when they had been obsolete for hundreds of years (or something like that). She's an amazing strategist. She gave the best chess player in the universe a real run for his money before ultimately losing. Barely. But she's insane. She doesn't walk anywhere, she gallops, runs, cartwheels, walks on her hands, or saunters. But she never just walks. She also can't wear shoes or socks. Like. Is physically incapable of walking while wearing socks. She constantly speaks in the third person, but slips into first person occasionally. She'll eat anything. She's kind of like a little creature. Acts on instinct, doesn't give a single thought as to what anyone else thinks. She thinks it, she does it. No hesitation.

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO INTERNET PEOPLE AND HOW ARE YOU TODAY? IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY EDWARD WILL MAKE YOU HAPPY! With THIS. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FkW2D5n8Ns) That makes EVERYONE happy.

Third Person: The weather today was horrible. Edward stared out the hatch of the Bebop at the rain falling on the planet's surface, morose beyond all reasoning. Ein the corgi lay next to her, and, mirroring her emotion, whined plaintively every now and then.

After a while, Ed started to sigh. It was long, drawn-out, and over dramatic. But, as she stared at the seemingly endless rain, it was entirely called for. After all, what was landing for but to get out and stretch your legs? Run around the cities... find interesting things to do...

But there wasn't a whole lot you could do outside when it was raining.

Unless...

Edward, who had been slumping over the railing, suddenly sat bolt upright.

"EIN EIN EIN EIN EIN!" she shrieked. "PUDDLES!"

Girl and dog leaped up, practically hovering in midair for a moment before dashing off outside.

Not a minute later, they could be found jumping in the biggest puddles to make as large a splash as they possibly could, the dog barking happily, and Ed bursting with mad laughter.

Current Characters: N/A.

Character: Zed
Fandom: Wild Arms
Character Notes:

Zed is a Metal Demon, which means he sides generally with the bad guys -- not to mention, of course he also happens to be about 1000 years old. But it is most likely that he's spent most of that time in hibernation with the Quarter Knights, meaning he doesn't act like his age. As a side note, the Quarters Knights and Zeikfried are the other important Metal Demons who, in the game, are the antagonists, trying to revive Mother. Who, as the name implies, is the real leader of the Metal Demon race.

Zed is considered to be just a lackey of some sort underneath the Quarter Knights -- who don't take him seriously -- much to his disappointment. I'm taking him from sometime in the middle of Wild Arms, before the *spoilers* Generator Gate explodes.

Zed holds a large amount of crappy-ass bad-luck, ironically because of his sword.

Zed exhibits many characteristics that make those who face him in battle mentally facepalm, and thus he is not taken very seriously at times for very good reasons. Not only does he go out of the way to say how 'awesome' he is when he speaks to the main characters, but he also has a habit of making 'cool' dynamic entries. Needless to say, if a person has just met Zed they would hardly believe that he is a demon at all. Or even just roll their eyes if he claims he is 'very evil' or something of the sort.

Well it would be clear that he is quite egotistical -- to the point where it is borderline ridiculous. He easily extracts praises about himself from his mouth, as well as having a habit of bragging about himself a lot. Hence, you will see a lot of arrogance and cockiness eminent from him like a duck flying in the night sky. Being very noticeable, I mean.

Zed happens to lack a good amount of common sense. Which can result to some frustrating, wall banging, or confusion whenever anyone has the pleasure of interacting with him.

That fact, and that he isn't actually interested much in chaos and destruction compared to like every other Metal Demon that ever existed makes him stick out like a sore thumb. His first appearance ironically has him pop up on a ship from outta nowhere, saying two people kissing in public is immoral -- during what appears to be a wedding. Clearly, this is a sign he has good morals. Yeah.

Also, Zed aspires to be the coolest guy ever!

First Person (entry type):

Heheheh...

Prepare to be amazed by the super great, cool...Zed! And guess who that happens to be? Me! Yes, me!

Just by hearing my voice, you should be honored to bask in such a glorious moment! It is one of those things that would happen once in a lifetime! I mean, being able to talk with me.

Ahem! Greetings all humans and all other beings, I am what you call a fearsome, strong, evil Metal Demon. That's right, you should be afraid!

[He pauses to hear if there would be any voices that expressed fear and awe. But not for long.]

He will certainly be impressed now, and there's no way they wouldn't be able to not praise me now for my brilliance!

[Cue laughter of some sort.]

Third Person:

At Bad Guy's HQ:

"Hmph! No one recognizes my talent, of the one and only great and amazing Zed!"

The green-haired male stomped out of the room at the conclusion of what could only be a very evil meeting. He kicked some piece of rubble or trash that happened to be in the way of his feet as he continued on his way, his attitude very much now at like that of a angry child's. Of course, he was totally hate that kind of comparison.

Either way, it was hard for him not to get mad whenever he had thought about the -- in his mind -- disastrous conclusion of the meeting. Sure, it wasn't as important as the others, but the Quarter Knights still attended for maybe just for show. Either way, he was certainly ignored when he tried to venture outloud a great idea. Heck, he didn't even get a chance to voice much of it when he was instantaneously shot down by a certain boisterous bone-headed idiot. Something about his 'input would only involve holes' or something.

And then, suddenly an idea!

"Ha! I got it! Now, with this plan there's no way I'll fail!"

Then he ran forward excitingly down the hall, and then slipped on that rubbish he kicked, face falling into the ground first. What a spectacular fall!

Current Characters: None

Character: Vegeta
Fandom: DragonBall Z
Character Notes:

History: Prince Vegeta is a Saiyan. The son of King Vegeta, ruler of the Saiyan's homeplanet of the same name (Vegeta). Since infancy, Vegeta had more power inside him than any of the other Saiyans, including his own father. At a young age, his father trained him to use this power and taught him how to be ruthless and decisive. However, King Vegeta soon had to give his son over to Freeza, leader of the Planet Brokers empire, who had also sensed Vegeta's potential and didn't want it to be used against him. Soonafter, Freeza killed King Vegeta and blew up the Saiyan planet. Vegeta was one of four Saiyans left alive. Freeza raised Vegeta to be a warrior for him for the remainder of his childhood.

Over the years, Vegeta came to resent Freeza. Harboring suspisions that Freeza destroyed the Saiyan race, he hoped to become stronger so that he could kill and overthrow Freeza. So when he heard about the dragon balls on Earth, he seized his chance to seek them out so that he could wish for eternal life and unlimited power. He and his Saiyan partner Nappa went to Earth and killed most of it's defending fighters in order to find the dragon balls. But then the surviving Saiyan Kakarrot, who was raised on Earth as "Son Goku", arrived on the battlefield and easily desposed of Nappa. Vegeta then fought Goku himself and though he overpowered him at first, Goku was able to beat him with help from his friends Krillin and Yajorobe, and his son Gohan. But wanting another chance to fight him and beat him fairly, Goku let Vegeta escape in his spacepod. Vegeta has promised that he will get stronger and he will have revenge....

Personality: Being the prince of Saiyans and one of the strongest fighters in the universe, Vegeta is very proud and egocentric. He prides himself in being an elite warrior and hates being overpowered by anyone. Thus why he's resentful towards "Kakarrot" and his Earthling friends for defeating him. Vegeta has a very evil heart; he was raised to be merciless and cruel and he revels in killing and destruction. He knows when to be cunning and level-headed, but when angered his rage will not stop. As a saiyan, he always gets stronger after every battle and hungers for more power.

First Person (entry type):

Ggghhh....Kakarrot and his worthless Earthling allies think they've beaten me. But they have not; they'll soon see that they've only awakened more power and rage inside me! Raditz and Nappa fell because they were weak. I am not. I've lived through all that I've been put through and shall emerge as the greatest warrior in the entire universe!

But to make sure of that, I'll need to become immmortal. For that I shall collect all seven dragon balls on Planet Namek. I'm sure the fools on one of Freeza's planets will help me recover...and they'll die regretting it once I've unleashed my greater power. Then I'll head to Namek, get the dragon balls, and gain eternal life! I shall become indestructable and make Freeza, Kakarrot, and the whole galaxy kneel before me!

Third Person:

Vegeta had finished his training on one of the many planets owned by Freeza. The training had been intense, but Vegeta had barely sweated one drop by the time it was over. The young Saiyan prince exited the training room. And waiting for him outside the training room was Cui, one of his chief rivals in Freeza's forces.

"You were in there for far too long, Vegeta." the fish faced alien said "I'd expect you to be quite worn out." "Using my power? Wear me out?" Vegeta scoffed "Cui, your expectations are far too high."

Cui gave a frusterated growl. "You think you're unharmable, don't you, Vegeta?" he snapped "Well I'm gonna let you know that my power level is still higher than yours and it's only going to get higher once I'm done with my training."

Vegeta faced Cui directly and gave a defiant glare "Your power is only stronger because Freeza lets you train under special conditions! But I, as a Saiyan, was born with the capacity for power far greater than yours and I have to train vigurously by myself and do some actual work in order to improve! So you just continue to take it easy, Cui. It only makes you more inferior!" With this, Vegeta turned his back on Cui and walked away.

"The fools working for Freeza" Vegeta thought to himself as he headed for the launchpad. "They think their strength can equal or surpass that of a Saiyans'." He knew that Freeza's power far surpassed his own and there were some who worked under Freeza who had more power and experience than he. But to him, none of it mattered. Ever since he was born, Vegeta could feel an energy within him that pulsed like a heartbeat and kept getting stronger after each time he fought. That, Vegeta felt, was more than his power; it was his destiny. He would ascend to a level that no other Saiyan could; a Super Saiyan. And he would be in complete control of the great power and would use it to destroy Freeza and his entire empire. Then he would take over and become known as the supreme master of the universe. A psychotic grin spread across Vegeta's face just thinking about it.

But until then, he'd have to keep following Freeza's orders. So he climbed inside his spacepod and flew off into space. It's coordinates were set for the next planet that he would conquer...

Current Characters:

Character: Treize Khushrenada.
Fandom: Gundam Wing
Character Notes:

Treize outwardly displays traits of being cold, keeping generally to himself, as he speaks rarely to others, and showing quite the reserved manner in doing so in that respect or in the fact that he doesn't allow himself to be easily governed by his emotions. Then there is his adoration for war.

There is that he shows cases where it is obvious that he values the concepts of the ancient honor and chivalry variety -- that which he shows where he insists on a one-on-one battle duel. When I say one-on-one battle I mean get out of the mech and fight sword-to-sword instead. Ironically, this part of himself collides with that part which makes him quite ruthless when he's shooting for his goals -- as he will show large amounts of exceptional cruelty to make sure he is successful in his endeavors. Even so, he continues to think of such moral ideas as something he would be able to still adhere to...at least when he's not being ambitious.

Treize is a very talented man, who is superb at strategy, being a tactician and such -- which indicates a good amount of intelligence and have some sort of slyness on his part.

What Treize does keep hidden from view is his incredible amount of loyalty to the lucky few he considers to be his friends. He even is able to fall in love, something he himself does not seem to be aware of. Even more out there is that he dislikes bringing harm to people, and is guilty over the deaths of those he has caused -- which he expresses to Wufei, as he is able to remember every person who has died by his hand. What exactly does this mean? It means that he is quite a mess on the inside, and that may be the reason why he allowed himself to be killed by Wufei. But, you could say it shows another degree of selfishness on his part.

I am taking him after he builds Epyon, a Gundam capable of standing up to even Gundam Zero.

First Person (entry type):

[Voice]

Now, what is this?

...

[A pause, and a distinct "click" is heard as he shuts off the voice recorder. Then, a few minutes later:]

How interesting, this appears to be some sort of social community of some sort. I wonder, who exactly came up with such an idea? Either way, it does appear to provide some sort of amusement if one has some free time on their hands -- especially considering some of what has been said on a certain number of these entries.

[Perchance an amused chuckle? Because here is one.]

But I guess at least a number of you would venture who exactly it was that speaks these words.

Greetings, those in many "worlds" or elsewhere, I am Treize Khushrenada.

Third Person:

Tap, tap, tap.

The sound of water dripping as a single drop -- the sound it would probably register as to one who was a being smaller and inferior to the likes of a human being; no, more specifically perhaps an insect. It could also be the sound of blood dripping at a certain pace, onto another surface; like the sound of rain. Simply put, it was quite one of the many thoughts to occupy him during when he was working on finishing this wonderful piece of machinery known as a Gundam. Quite frankly, it was obvious that when he was placed into house arrest that he would have such time on his hands to further his plans. To him, it was almost as if there wasn't a roadblock in his path -- because honestly there wasn't. There was not anything that could stop him from achieving what he wanted, especially if he put his mind to it.

Except maybe death.

A thin smile raised his lips just a tad at this.

A bead of sweat dripped from his forehead, causing him to wipe it with a the sleeve of his white shirt. It was time to take a short break, he reasoned. Then, once his feet were touching the ground again, he walked up to one of the shades from the windows and pulled the cloth aside -- the blinding of the sudden shine from outside cast aside his doubt.

"What a beautiful light."

Treize muttered to himself, for a reason more than one.
