I guess someone has to make sure this doesn't completely die, seeing as how relevant the question is...
1) Rita the Dragon (personal mount)
2)Kyuubigirl (one of the first SL friends and zone fights)
3)Rare Uchiha
4)Kayenta
5)Tommi Senju
6)LightningX
7)Darkshinobi
These are characters, not neccessarily the peoople on the other side of the screen, although that did influence just slightly in my listings. Rita was my own personal creation and I actually have alot of fun RPing both her and Eric together far more than when I'm just RPing Eric.
Kyuubigirl still has that place becuase she was one of my first real zone fights and friends on SL, although she is not as into that as she used to.
Rare has been with both SL and the village for quite awhile now; I remember when he was Fifty Cents in the friend's list. While it is questionable his latest ideas, since his character has alot of power (and not a thing to do with it) and for the most part resembles the Uchiha from the series pretty well, you can tell that Rare's own character probably has some illumination to OOC Fifty... Getting used to Rare threw me off for a bit.
OOCly I can't say I"m all that familiar with Kayenta, but from SLS to SL again, her character has certainly shone quite well, with the personalities of herself and her character very intuned.
Tommi's character was the greatest thing to happen to Konohagakure ever since Gyururu handed him the mantle in SLS. While his eventual OOC decisions are questionable, his character was undoubtably unique in nature. Yeah, plenty of Minato references and potential copycat, but he managed to pull it off rather well till the end, throwing in some "extra" stuff to "customize" the Minato template. Had his two infamous decisions of OOC nature been weighed more heavily... Well, he certainly wouldn't have gotten above Lightning that is for certain!
Lightning, the first eager member of the Shadow Force who gave me the honor of being one of his senpai's... I believe his second senpai including his master, but I absolutely adore the character behind it. Recently conditions haven't been so grand for either of us to shine, but war will eventually return to the shinobi legends realm...
Dark's character recently has been inactive... Very inactive in fact. But his real life is affecting that. His character looked out for the best for Konoha, and tried to help pick up the pieces from Tomi's first dissappearance... Well, RL has been sapping at that, but his character is still awesome.
No, I am not "reviving" this thread! I am trying to make a related post and give a template for others who wanna post, and I'm not sure i have any characters that I hate really.
