Author's Note: Someone mentioned that there are quite a few characters floating around… so I thought I would create a character page for everyone's enjoyment! ^_^ Just skip this chapter if you don't feel you need it, mwahaha

Cannon Characters

Sora – Our little ray of sunshine! This is the Sora from Kingdom Hearts. Is he gay with Riku? I haven't decided yet. ^_^ His most notable achievement is catching a fish THIS BIG! (really!)

Riku – Our little ray of… um… something! This is the Riku from Kingdom Hearts. Is he gay with Sora? I'm sure he wants to be… ahah. His most notable achievement is using the Way to Dawn to cut melons. Hey, he didn't have a knife…

World 1833 Characters

Roxas – Completely unrelated to Sora, Roxas is your typical rich high school student… or rather, he was! Until his father decided he needed a bodyguard/courtesan and the rest is history. He's pretty sweet but can also be quite a tough little guy. Only Axel gets to ruffle his hair. Most notable achievement so far is eating an entire tub of Sea Salt ice cream in one go… and not getting sick.

Sora – Completely unrelated to Roxas, but very good friends, Sora is another ray of sunshine! Far less experienced than the KH version, he's also a bit gooier. His hair serves as a mood ring! Everyone wants to protect him, and he tends to arouse the 'awwww' response in people. His most notable achievement so far is receiving the most free drinks of anyone at the World's End Tavern.

Vexen – Roxas dad, he was a cold, rather distant man who nonetheless tried his best to raise his boys right. He probably screwed them up a bit, but what parent doesn't? He loved Saix but never told him… but then, Saix knew. Deceased.

Saix – Vexen's bodyguard, he was very professional but a warm, friendly person. He was friends with Vexen but nothing more… Vexen's personality just wasn't what he wanted in a lover. Lover to Xemnas. Deceased.

Xemnas – Sora's uncle and massive crime lord, Xemnas is also a ruthless bastard. He is also very dangerous, capable of acting audaciously and decisively when the situation calls for it… as Vexen discovered. He did love Saix, in his own way, but love is no protection. Currently alive, well and likely to stay that way. Unfortunately.

Mrs. Mae-Lin – One of the best English teachers… ever. She's a very good person who believes in human rights and is willing to do something about it. Alas, any plans for good deeds in the Twisted World are currently stymied by lack of a portal.

Twisted World Characters

Note: None of these characters were actually born in the Twisted World, but it's the closest thing they have to a home. So yeah.

Axel – Our wonderful pyro! Axel is the man we know and love. He's also intelligent to the point of brilliance and a master of all things linguistic. But don't ask him about math. Even after looking at Roxas' primers, math is his bane. Deeply in love with Roxas. Most notable achievement to date is not setting Sora on fire after the glue incident.

Mongo – Affectionately known as the old monster, Mongo comes from a very strange world on the far end of creation. As such, he's completely immortal and almost unkillable. As penance for an unspeakable sin, he and Kilsera are serving as the angels of second chances… and making quite a lot of money in the process. Hey, good deeds don't have to be free!

Kilsera – Mongo's mate. She could have abandoned him when he needed to begin his penance, but she loves him dearly and she stayed. She's a master of sorcery and oracles, using both to help Mongo on his mission. He doesn't know what he'd do without her.

Ya Tashra – Ye sorcerer supreme! Ya Tashra is the creator of the Twisted World. What does he look like? No one knows. Is he even actually a he? No one knows. Is he a god? A mortal? No one knows! All they do know is that from the shipments to his tower on the top layer, he liked alcohol just fine. His most notable achievement thus far is being the creator of more research papers than the entire faculty of Harvard.

Doctor Rufus Shinra – Scion of the obscenely wealthy Shinra family in his home dimension, Rufus rarely comes home, too busy scouting out the multiverse for both science and profit. He comes from a world where Edwardian fashion is in and speaks with an English accent. Loves danger, sex and alcohol as well as science. It's all about the science! Think Indiana Jones without the whip. And with a lot more jars. His most notable achievement thus far is managing to take out a werewolf with nothing but a flower pot and a silver fork. True story!

Rude, also known as Reno – Rufus bodyguard and general helper. Rude is deeply in love with the good doctor but it would take a team of wild elephants to make him admit it. Rude is actually the same person as Reno on his shadow world, which is why the appearance is a little confusing. He loves danger and loves to fight, and traveling with Rufus means his cravings rarely go unsatisfied for long. His most notable achievement so far is managing to set off the alarms in a sunken temple so he and Rufus were both pursued out by a raging earth elemental and then the temple… hey, I didn't say it was a GOOD achievement now did I?

Froggy – An interesting character, Froggy is helpful, funny and likely to stab you if you make fun of her name. She got her name because of her history… at one point she was a beautiful princess. She spurned the attentions of a powerful wizard because he was fat, balding and twice her age. In a fit of pique, the wizard turned her into a frog and decreed that she would turn back into a maiden when she was given a kiss of true love. Unfortunately, he didn't consider that frogs do not naturally have long life spans. Froggy was about to become a snake's meal when fate in the form of Mongo and Kilsera intervened. Kilsera broke the spell on her in return for her freedom. Froggy has a bit of an attitude, but makes a very good friend. Still hates snakes.

Female Riku – For lack of a better place to put her, she's going here. Completely identical to cannon Riku, which is the source of much of her grief as people keep thinking she's a boy. Desperately in love with Sora, who does not return her feelings. Currently developing feelings for the gooier Sora… how will that turn out? Who knows. Most notable achievement so far is managing to make her dad's VCR explode.

Dark Land Characters

Axel – Supreme cheese of the Dark Land, he is the High Lord and master of all he surveys. He's also Bon-Bon's favorite demon and she likes to ruffle his hair. He sometimes goes by the name of Lea, since he was reunited with his Nobody to make a whole person. If you want to know more about him, read the Dark Land! *shameless plug* He won't be appearing much if at all in this fic.

Marty – Related to Marluxia somehow, but since he knows Marluxia by a different name who knows how? A demon of the hourglass with a great love of plants, he was voluntold to help the good doctor with his work. Axel's exact words were "Bring him back in one piece or don't come back." Marty was not on his good side at the time. But if Marty can pull this one off, he'll be back in favor so watch out! Ambitious demon on the way! Most notable achievement thus far is managing to piss off Axel quite thoroughly without actually dying.

That's all for now. ^_^ I may have missed someone but nothing's perfect. Enjoy!
