RE: Character Math! - McBeefâ„¢ - 07-04-2014

Love the thread Idea.

Nat's sense of duty, honor and purpose could easily come from Chris Lightfellow, protagonist of Suikoden III.

Her crassness and penchant for fucking shit up comes from renegade femshep.

Her fighting style definitely comes from Soul Calibur's Sophitia. Nat uses shields offensively, and gets in close to the opponent. Though she's a bigger fan of armor... and clothes.

RE: Character Math! - Coatleque - 07-04-2014

Alright, I think I have this figured out...

Coatleque is comprised first of Julie Andrews for her absolute politeness and proper manners
[Image: images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTaSZDTzw4HgpwGB17jvaJ..._S3qsjczBQ]

Then Marylin Munster for her obliviousness to what is really going on around her.

And then Clare, from the Claymore series for her... everything else really.

RE: Character Math! - C'kayah Polaali - 07-04-2014

Alright, I'll bite!

For C'kayah, his main motivation in life is to be:

(Giacomo Casanova)

However, real life and his natural talents have conspired to force him to be more like:

While any reasonably attractive woman can turn him into:

Much to his detriment (but the benefit of any conflict-driven RP)

RE: Character Math! - Knight Kat - 07-05-2014

I spent a lot of time thinking about this, and now I have come up with an equation that equals Kiht Jakkya!

[Image: EM0qvA1.jpg]
The voice, fury and passion of Mikasa Ackerman from Attack on Titan.

[Image: D8r72m0.png]
The wisdom, leadership qualities and code of honor of Teyla Emmagan from Stargate Atlantis.

[Image: ApGKE5i.png]
The kindness, relentless compassion for friends and free spirit of Gon Freecss from Hunter X Hunter.

RE: Character Math! - FreelanceWizard - 07-05-2014

The L'yhta equation is simple. Smile

You take this guy's (the Eleventh Doctor) reckless thrill seeking, lack of planning, and ruthlessness in the face of threats...
[Image: Eleventhdoctornew.jpg]

Then combine it with this girl's (Lina Inverse) youthful arrogance, raw power, and appetite for the bombastic use of magic...
[Image: Lina_Inverse.jpg]

And finally toss in this lady's (Leslie Knope) naiveté, unending enthusiasm, and boundless optimism...
[Image: Leslie_Knope_%28played_by_Amy_Poehler%29.png]

She can be a bit trying to get along with. Smile As a wise character once said to her, "Your existence is very much like shouting."

RE: Character Math! - Crisiet - 07-05-2014

This is more difficult than I thought it would be. I remember seeing it on the GW2RP forums waaaay back and thinking the same.

... I'll have to think about this.

RE: Character Math! - TheLastCandle - 07-05-2014

Hibito Yarato, Plainsfolk, can be summed up like this:

Peregrin "Pippin" Took
[Image: 1.jpg]
Young, naïve, and overly enthusiastic almost to the point of obnoxiousness. He truly has no idea what he's getting into. What he lacks in wisdom, he makes up for in courage, but his foolhardiness is going to get him into trouble.

Tenchi Masaki
[Image: tenchi_masaki_of_tenchi_muyo-14157.jpg]
Extremely awkward around females, yet somehow seems to surround himself with them.

Rocky Balboa
[Image: rocky.jpg?w=410]
In a word? Tenacity. He's not strong, and he's fully aware of it, but his mind is made up to achieve his goals. Whatever it takes, he won't give up.

"NOTHIN' IS OVA, JUST GIMME SOMETHIN' TA DRINK."


RE: Character Math! - Crisiet - 07-05-2014

Okay, so...

Levi, Shingeki no Kyojin.

[Image: Levi_in_anime.png]
This might be a little bit obvious. Or I'm overthinking again. They're both dealing with loss and tend to be rude and abrasive. 

Elsa, Frozen.

[Image: tumblr_inline_mrwmfoMPWg1qz4rgp.jpg]
Though I made Cris before Frozen was released, I see similarities between the two, especially in the way they isolate themselves. "Conceal, don't feel." and all that stuff.

Cris hasn't quite moved past that yet, however.


Arcade Gannon, Fallout New Vegas.


[Image: maxresdefault.jpg]
His self-depreciative humour and his tendency to deflect personal questions inspired a lot of Cris' character. In fact, it's why I made Cris blonde. He was originally going to have brown or red hair, lol.

RE: Character Math! - Ridegmuve - 07-08-2014

Well to get Iliette Guillestet, first you get a large bowl and some whiskers and then start by adding a large portion of...

Sanada Yukimura (From Sengoku Basara):
Yukimura is courageous, doesn't back down and fights with not one but two spears at hand, amazing acrobatic skills and amazing strength and rushing the enemy head on. as well as is a dedicated and loyal follower to whomever deserves said loyalty (For Yukimura that would be his lordship Tongue)
[Image: sanada.png]
Then you take two Date Masamunes (Sengoku Basara...again) and start mixing!:
Date Masamune while a leader is cocky and is not openly afraid of anything! Speaking bad engrish lines and the like charges into battlefield not having much thought for anyone else until the deed is done!
[Image: SB4_Date_Masamune.png]
((I may have used "Let's Party!" a few times in a fight Tongue))

Now let it rest for a bit while we gather some spices... Go to your spice rack and grab some of the emotional distance of Effy Stonem... (Skins) (as well as her being Iliette's PB)
[Image: 1366413475953.jpg]
The awkward and sometimes immature romance of Koizumi (Lovely Complex)
[Image: 36357.jpg]
And last but not least the awesome pretend heroics of any shounen hero thinking they are all that!

Now we add a dash of all of those things we grabbed into the mixture, we mix it again, put it into the oven and then we get Iliette Guillestet

Why of course Big Grin Effy is an amazing character, as well as very pretty Tongue

RE: Character Math! - Roen - 07-08-2014

I had to think a long time for this!

Okay for Roen:

Olivia Dunham from Fringe, in terms of her quiet voice, her expressions, her tendency to be introspective, and seriousness and devotion to her work. She does not smile often, but when she does it really comes from within. If I had to pick just one character, it would be Olive.

[Image: T7XlNHS.png]

Then there is her stubbornness and a pinch of naivete in how she sticks to her ideals and Oaths. That's Brienne of Tarth.

[Image: X6UOERd.png]

Lastly her tomboyish nature and her youthful innocence. I like Ivy Walker from The Village (anyone watch that movie?) and the look of Bryce Dallas Howard in the picture below is so perfect. (I could have picked Merida from Brave for the same reason, but she is no longer quite as rebellious or carefree since running away)

[Image: 46bc2afa7420550b3539be0fee229c9f189d0ee4.jpg?1173105]

Anelia's look and attitude would be more related to Saber from FATE/Stay Night. Honorable Knight and Kingship, and Absolutism on Justice. 

[Image: e390ea0f25108275c1fcf17ce28109b16d37de02.png?473905]

Mizuho's appearance would be Ryougi Shiki from Kara no Kyoukai  (Garden of Sinners), where she acts coldly toward people, but follows people's orders and do what she can do to keep her promises. A lot of vigilante based emotions and actions.

RE: Character Math! - Aerghwab - 07-25-2014

Well, lemme give this a shot.

Joshamee Gibbs, Pirates of the Caribbean
[Image: OSTGibbsProfile.jpg]
Hwab's loyalty, manner of speaking, and love of drink.

Tai Ho, Suikoden 
[Image: Tai_Ho_SII.gif]
Actually inspired Hwab's general appearance (though Hwab is younger) and shares his love for gambling, fishing, and sailing! Also happens to use a spear in battle, which is Hwab's favored weapon.

Asuma, Naruto
[Image: 1000px-Asuma_Sarutobi.png]
Probably very close to Aerghwab's personality. Outwardly rather laid back. Very blunt and to the point. Prefers not to get involved in things unless necessary. Smokes. ;P

RE: Character Math! - Chika Ito - 07-25-2014

I love this thread! ^^ It was very interesting, and fun, to read through and see the characters that others are composed of. So here is mine;

In order to get Chika Ito there are several components.

Let us begin with her archery skills. She has been training for roughly seventeen years as an Archer. For this we add a pinch of the Green Arrow. There is always room for improvement, and there are times she has an off day, and her accuracy isn't always up to par.
[Image: arrow-tv-show-the-pros-and-cons-of-a-dcc...eight=2248]





Twenty-three years of her life she has trained as a Pugilist, starting with the basic stances and how to hold a weapon at age four. She knows how to use her body in close quarter combat. For this we add a splash of Jason Statham from the Transporter series (or any movie where he kicks ass!) Her close combat fighting style is inspired by him.
[Image: the_transporter_3_movie_image_jason_statham.jpg]


Chika has four children. Twin fraternal boys who are seven, a daughter who is three, and another daughter that is five months old. She is dedicated to her family, and very loyal to them. On top of raising four children she works for the Free Wing Society, and owns 'Sew Beautiful' where she makes things from weaving, and leather working. She is a tough working mother who busts her rear every day to support her family. For this we add two cups Lynette Scavo from 'Desperate Housewives'! Throughout all eight seasons they go through Lynette's home life, and struggling to raise her kids and trying to keep her husband happy, and toward the end of the series she finally goes back to working for a big company.
[Image: lynette-scavo-f%C3%AAte-des-m%C3%A8res.jpg]


Laughter is the best medicine, and she loves making her friends and family smile and laugh. Time to add several tablespoons of Wanda Sykes! Sometimes Chika's humor can be a bit crude, and adult rated, but she still makes people laugh.
[Image: wandasykes_web300.jpg]


For her attitude, when she gets one, and self confidence we add several dashes of Regina Mills from 'Once Upon a Time'. This woman has a lot of spunk, and sass, and when she doesn't get her way she knows how to even the score.
[Image: tumblr_mluvcw7BNf1rf6x0go1_500.jpg]


Chika's sexiness comes from a whole cereal box worth of Eva Longoria! My personal weakness is Latina women, and I cannot resist a beautiful face with caramel skin. 
[Image: 62e301daafd73f3fcb2f271d55fac0fb.jpg]


Time to wrap this up. The base idea, the inspiration for Chika, comes from none other than Yoruichi Shihoin Zanpakuto! Her style, her sass and attitude, her courage, and not to mention intelligence and grace (lets add sexy to the mix too) inspired me to create Chika.
