OOC: Pascal, I just checked the Wikipedia entry on minor characters in the books. Tom's dead, so I won't use him. Darn, I forgot that.
OK, here goes. I'm going to do my heroes first, then a villain.
Name: Mike Batson (comic book reference! Batson is the real last name for
Captain Marvel's secret identity)
Side: Humans
Age: 16
Hair: Red with a touch of blonde
Race: African-American (in the books, IIRC, the characters were all different races.)
Description: Mike is probably going to be the most mature member of the cast. He is a devout Catholic, in fact his uncle, who is his guardian, is a deacon. (His parents were killed at an early age) They have several Bibles in their house. Mike is an avid comic book fan, thanks to the fact that his cousin (available for play btw!) has a job in a local shop. When he meets the Andalite, he becomes worried, but accepts the task before him with a responsibility that can be compared to Spider-man's (Spider-man and Captain Marvel are his favorite characters). He also tries to teach the Andalite what he knows of Christianity, believing that God created the Andalites as well. He has a pet Rotweiller named Ace, after Batman's dog (remember Batman Beyond?). He is an excellent guitar player and often records himself for a youtube channel. (his channel's RedCheese777)
Rogret-Frugan-Westonili
Race: Andalite
Description: Rogret (or Rog to the humans) is a female Andalite who comes to Earth upon hearing of a Yeerk invasion. She meets the humans purely by chance, but unlike the previous invasion, she doesn't die. Instead she stays on, using a human form for cover. She is even allowed to stay with Mike's family! She is a good friend of Ax (from the books) and has his journals, which he used to record all his experiences. She uses these to learn how to coexist with the humans. Her human form is the same gender as herself and has the following description:
Hair: black
Eyes: Green
Skin: light tan
Age: appears to be 20, but in Andalite years, she may be older.
The villain will show up later.
And it's later, so here's our villain:
George Reynolds
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Blue
Skin: Caucasian
Age: 35
George has the Controller Stall-4577 inside him and is a man with a not-so-impeccable past. He once ran a shady campaign for governor and thinks that cooperating with the Yeerks will get him the power he craves.
