Snatched this character meme from =onnawufei~ At last, something I havent done yet. XD It doesnt say how many you can use of your OCs, but I'm sticking with ten out of consideration for others. Dont wanna be overloaded, ne? Besides, I think 10 is the minimum for this according to the questions, so....

1. Fen
2. Naedri
3. Toushi
4. Cassian
5. Oz
6. Hideko
7. Toshiki (Z)
8. Kenji
9. Tessa
10. Hondou


1. Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would make a better Five Man Band (like a Power Rangers team)? Who would you slot in each position: Leader, Second in Command, Big Guy, Smart Guy, The Chick?

Team A : Fen, Toushi, Oz, Toshiki (Z), Tessa
Team B : Naedri, Cassian, Hideko, Kenji, Hondou

Either one might work actually. Though I think it's funny how they turned out, cus Team A is full of all the whack jobs and Team B has all the mature sensible ones. Give or take one or two members of each. I'll let you guess who they are~

[Team A] Fen would claim leadership, no contest. Toushi would be second. Oz would be the big guy most likely. Z would be the smart guy. and Tessa is the only chick so yeah.
[Team B] Naedri would be leader hands down, cus he's scary. Cassian would be second prolly, though the smart guy Hondou would be his equal in that. Hideko would be the strong guy that kicks ass. And Kenji, being the youngest and cutest, would be the "chick".

2. Gender-swap 2, 8 & 10. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?

Kenji, cus he's still a kid and becoming a girl outta nowhere would screw things up for him. Fen wouldnt be fazed at all, I'm serious. He's also the one who's the most believable at being a girl. Heck, some people think he is already! XD Hondou would have the hardest time with the swap, cus he's so masculine, even pretending to be a girl just wouldnt work.

3. Compare the matchups of 1 & 8 and 5 & 9. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?

Oz and Tessa hands down. Not only are they man and woman which are good in just about any culture, but they're close in age as well. Fen with Kenji is just WRONG on so many levels!

4. Your team is 3, 4 & 9. The mission consists of a social challenge, a mental challenge and a physical challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?

Toushi : Mental
Cassian: Physical
Tessa: Social
That was pretty easy.

5. 7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?

You know, I can see that happening actually. Z commissioning Fen for a job isnt that hard to imagine, and in doing so would make Z Fen's boss. They'd have a fun relationship, I'm sure.

6. 2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 6's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 6 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 6's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?

Totally. They're both antisocial and blunt soft-spoken people. If Naedri became Hideko and Hideko became Naedri, I doubt it would distort much of anything. They'd be more or less the same as they are as themselves.

7. 3 and 5 get three wishes. The catch is that they have to agree on all three wishes before they get the benefits of any of them. What three wishes would they make?

Well, both Toushi and Oz wish people would listen to their advice/opinions more, so that would be the first wish. They also both have someone they want to protect no matter what, so that person's safety would be their second wish. And their third wish would probably be for the stupidity of mortality to improve greatly so less problems would occur in the world.

8. 1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to attack and kill 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any Code vs. Killing has been turned off. Can 4 survive? How?

Unfortunately, against Naedri who already has powers of mind control and other scary skills, plus Fen's unknown abilities, Cassian would prolly die pretty soon after they were brainwashed. He could try and avoid or fight them as much as he wanted to, and it wouldnt really save him. Poor thing~

9. 6, 7, 9 & 10 must help an orphanage full of small and depressed children have a merry Christmas. Who does what, knowing that at the very least the kids will be expecting a visit from Santa?

Hideko drives the transport vehicle, Z dresses as an elf and hands out candy to the kids, Hondou would play the role of Santa and get wishes as well as pass out the gifts, and Tessa would play the role of Mrs. Claus and tells stories to the children. Being orphans themselves despite the fact Hideko has no memory of his past, he and Z can sorta relate to the children on a deep level. And Hondou and Tessa are the ideal parent figures out of all my charas, so they'd fit the important roles for xmas to a tee~

10. 3 and 8 are challenged to circum-navigate the Earth in eighty days or less, using only forms of transportation invented before 1900. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?

Kenji, being a child, would bring in his innocent ideas and with his big brother as his partner, they could totally do it. Their brotherly love wouldnt be an obstacle in their way in the slightest. ^^ That worked out rather well.
