'sup, folken.

(I'm cycling through the most ridiculous Mako icons I have. Because I can. Is it obvious?)

Today's DE has been on the backburner for a while now - but no longer! Courtesy of hey35andholding:

Tag in with the names and canons of characters that you'd like to see in the bar! Feel free to link additional information on wikis or youtube. You never know, there might be a potential apper out there!

Dude, it's not even Wednesday yet! =P

Oh wait I guess if you're on the East Coast of the US or more easternly it has been for an hour or so.

Get some sleep.

[fantasticfireferret]

I know! But I figure this way people who're up uber-early on Wednesday won't have to wait.

WHATEVER, I DO WHAT I WANT. >:(

[kd7sov]

You know who I'd absolutely love to see? Any of Felix's canonmates. Most particularly Sheba, Felix's sister Jenna, and (for great antagonism) Alex.

Unrelated to my own pups, I would also like an Eponymous Clent and/or a Saracen from Fly By Night (and its sequel, Fly Trap).

[bjornwilde]

My daughter loved FLy Trap and I keep meaning to pick up Fly By Night to read.

[jjprobert]

I'd quite like to see pups from The Eagle of the Ninth. (There was a film a couple of years ago, titled The Eagle, that followed the same basic plot as well, either would be cool).

[bjornwilde]

The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series has some great characters, both mythological and historical.

The Kate Daniels series has great characters as well and an even better world.

Dragonriders of Pern anyone?

Alexander/Phobos from Marvel's Secret Warriors could be interesting.

Monroe from Grimm?

[bjornwilde]

Or how about Joanne Walker from C.E. Murphy's Walker Papers? Come on, who can resist a shamanic mechanic from Seattle? Here's a short story of the main characters meeting for the first time but in reverse POV than the first book.

Or anyone from the Mercy Thompson series? The Felix Castor series?

Or how about anyone from Warren Ellis' Planetary?

[katyafeline]

... I could have sworn Monroe was going to be / was actually apped. I was uber-excited. :( Seconding Monroe with all of my geeky Grimm-loving heart.

[shinyhappygoth]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Psychonauts! Razputin Aquato in particular, but, heck, anyone really.

[leeshajoy]

Anyone from Linda Medley's Castle Waiting, particularly Sister Peace.

[jothra]

Oh, I love Castle Waiting!

[innerbrat]

All the Claymores! All of them

The three in bar aren't even the interesting ones. I mean, com'on, don't you want to play a warrior determined to find the shadowy truth of the Organization, or the most badass blind chick since Toph Beifong? Or the only Claymore with facial expressions?

YES YOU DO.

Scanlations are available here. All the officially published English translations are available through Viz Media's ipad app


-----------------

I'm also dying to see anyone at all from Secret Six. Com'on, guys, where's the rush apping of Bane since DKR?

[genarti]

Or Clarice the Tiniest Failiest Claymore! Or -- no, I am stopping now before I list ALL OF THEM.

Which is a lot of them.

[katyafeline]

I'd love a Bear to go with this Katya (or Seymon or Yulia, or or or...) from the Night Watch series. C'mooooooon.

[bjornwilde]

Is Night Watch books as well as a movie?

[misslucyjane]

House elves.

Oh, no, wait, that's what I want in real life.

[bjornwilde]

I help imagining a land war between house elves and the loompas now.

[visible_sariel]

Anybody from Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series, or his Nursery Crime series. We had a Jack Spratt at one point, and it was brilliant! I'd particularly love to see a Friday come in from between Something Rotten and First Among Sequels. Curious, intelligent and quirky kid FTW! Or can you imagine a Jenny in the bar? Or a Melanie Bradshaw? Or a Kaylew, or or or...

Aornis or Acheron Hades would be frankly terrifying, though. Excellent, potentially, but scary as all heck. Especially the former. Brrrrrr.

[snowy_river_man]

I was tempted by TN Miss Havisham for awhile. And the Cat formerly known as Cheshire. :D

I'd love seeing a Friday.

[to_catch_a]

Heist Society is a series of young adult novels about teenagers who pull cons and heists, mostly against bad people.

("Re-stealing, technically. It's like a double negative.")

Someone beside Nick here, who's app I continue to pick at, anyone would be great. There's Katarina, the main character; Hale, her filthy rich not!boyfriend; Uncle Eddie, the head of the family of crooks...

[janisthorn]

Has there ever been an Atreides in this bar? Or indeed, any character from Dune? I wouldn't mind seeing Gurney Halleck.

[aaaaaaaagh_sky]

We did have Paul, briefly. And an Alia, too. Possibly a Ghanima but it's been ages and I don't really remember.

[ladysingsthe]

Some days I really want to app Neal Caffrey ...

[artful_forger]

I say you go with that feeling.

After all, who wouldn't want to be me?

[ladyoflorien]

I was just talking about this subject with someone a few days ago.

There needs to be a Templeton the Rat in Milliways. So he could be cranky and sarcastic and get mistaken for a waitrat all the time.

(The problem with characters I want to see in the game is inevitably I end up with their voices in my head, so I'm actively not thinking about it. Heh. Any character[s] from any/all of my canons would naturally be lovely, though.)

[ever_lovin]

I see your Templeton and raise you a Justin from The Secret of NIMH.

[minkhollow]

Canonmates I particularly want: Just about anyone from Villains By Necessity* or Warehouse 13.**

*Any of the other five... protagonists, especially. I dare say Mizzamir would require a lot of coordination just by the nature of things, but he could make for some interesting plot tiems.

**Particularly HG, esp. as I'm about to get to AUing what canon did to her. And if I can find a good, consistent Jack, I will app Rebecca; it's just that she won't budge without him.

People that would be awesome to have: Douglas Fargo (why no I'm not a biased Claudia/Fargo shipper WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT), Chris Knight from Real Genius (or Mitch, or Jordan, or Ick, or Lazlo...), someone from the Giver 'verse (though I imagine that would take a LOT of planning), any of the Holroyd clan from Bell Book and Candle.

--OH ALSO ST TRINIAN'S
IF YOU DO IT I MAY BE TEMPTED TO APP BEVERLY

[seat_five_girl]

~Until the end/St. Trinian's!~

[12goingon113]

One of the reasons I picked up Aang was so that I could play through The Promise as well as The Search. Sure would be swell to see some of his contemporaries kicking around.
*cough*
So...that'd be my selfish reason for wanting Gaang era pups in Bar.

[bjornwilde]

In that alternate universe where I did nothing but play, I would love to run a Promise Iroh. = ]

[snowy_river_man]

Squirrel Girl!

I'd love to see more SotL characters for my own selfish reasons. Jon, Roger, etc.

*thinks*

Carter and Sadie Kane. Piper, Hazel, Nico and Frank from Heroes of Olympus.

Anyone from The Night Circus and Holly Black's Curse Workers series.

Flavia de Luce, Toby Daye, Tiffany Aching. I'm sure I will think of a ton more when I hit post. :)

[alexiscartwheel]

Saw the words "Squirrel Girl" before I saw the account name, yet somehow I sensed who posted this XD

And I'll second Toby! I've thought about apping her, but obviously that has not happened.

[aberration]

I was going to say this before the DE where I said I planned to play Marceline, but - Adventure Time characters! I'm just sort of surprised that I don't think we've had them before, but I think they'd be fun in the bar. (Though I suppose someone like Flame Princess might pose logistical problems... like how to not set everything on fire...) Spoilers for the season finale: And as of the most recent episode, we even have a definitive multiverse. Milliways could have been one of those spinning light things!

[leeshajoy]

I'm still waffling on trying out Lumpy Space Princess. Mostly because I already have one temperamental teenage princess who talks funny on my roster.

[ceitfianna]

Any characters from either the Heir or the Seven Realms Series, there are ones I could play in both but the voices haven't taken up residence, but everyone go read the books.

I would love to see classic mystery characters like Inspector Alleyn, Tommy and Tuppence, Hastings, Miss Lemon, they're so wonderful.

More characters from X-Men: First Class, our Erik's currently on a hiatus but its Marvel and we have the best Marvel cast.

Someone from the Magids or Chrestomanci; Millie, Christopher Chant, Conrad, Rupert, Nick. These are all characters I love but that have never taken up residence in my head.

That's all I've got at the moment, might have more later. I don't have my books and dvds, so can't look through them all.

[bjornwilde]

I actually have a journal for Michael Sanders (joininthechants) though I think I liked the character more for having a sorcerer than the book. Not that Chrestomanci wasn't a good book!

[alexiscartwheel]

Let's see...

I'd love to have some more Downton Abbey canon-mates. Anna or the other Crawley sisters would be especially good for Mary to play against. Or dear Cousin Matthew XD

Heather already mentioned Toby Daye, which would be fantastic, because I love her world. Also Tybalt because KING OF CATS.

The Aeslin mice from the Incryptid series. They'd probably end up worshipping Mike or something.

Stiles from Teen Wolf. Or the lacrosse coach. Or Derek "Oh Look He's Lurking Behind You" Hale. Or anyone from Teen Wolf. What? Don't look at me like that.

[mjolnir_retriever]

...Oh my god, the Aeslin mice in the bar. *starry-eyed*

[inlovewithwords]

...Predictably, any Alerans. Really. Any of them.
