Akari Shimazu A human female, 16 years old, born in Tokyo, and was abandoned in the street when she was a child. She was then taken to an orphanage, and soon after, sent to another in America. Stayed until she was fifteen, then moved out and into an apartment in New York, taking a job at a small cafe-type restaurant. She has long wavy black hair, big brown eyes, and is 5 feet tall. Akari is a gentle and caring person, also very quiet most of the time. Not too close with anybody, but is in love with Garr Aileron. He stays with her in her apartment most of the time. Moderately strong - physically and mentally. Not known for crying. She always wears a small silver ring on her left ring finger, with a tiny diamond in the center and an "A" imprinted underneath. She's had it since before she can even remember. This ring has a power, it can heal any wound, but no one knows this except Akari. Often writes poems to describe or express what she feels.

Angel A 17-year old, untrusting girl. She's suspicious of everyone except ~Jeffy, who she's in love with (but won't admit it to others). She had an abusive father, who she left at 14. Don't mention it to her. Step carefully around her, as her moods can shift without warning. She lives by "trust no one" after three years on the LA streets. She's about 5'7", thin, and has long blond hair.

DeGree DeGree is a hybrid between a Protoss probe and an abducted 18-year-old human male. By unknown means (and for unknown reasons) his body was changed to live at a constant 30� F (-1� C). Supremely intelligent, his reasons for coming to WAD-R are also unknown. It is suspected that he just didn't have anywhere else to go. He has developed a crush on Angel, and she appears to be returning his feelings. For some reason he feels normal to her sometimes (usually during a kiss). This is probably due to Protoss psychic manipulation.

F�nix A 28 year old human male with severe paranoia. He is hysterical most of the time, and gets picked on a lot because of his "theories." He always wears a baseball cap coated in aluminum foil, since that's the only substance that blocks out mind-conrol rays. He also is an explosives "expert," insofar as he blows stuff up a lot. Never let him cook. For some reason he tends to survive his explosions relatively unscathed. He has an active dislike of Fenrir (the "Evil Space Communist") and distrusts Garr. Not much is known of his background, as he refuses to reveal anything that the alien spies might find useful. About 5'10" with light brown hair and eyes.

Fenrir Once an advance invasion scout sent by the Zerg Swarm, he was captured by unknown forces (possibly alien) that changed his DNA. The only known effects are additional speed, strenght, intelligence, hearing and sight. He escaped, and now resides with WAD-R, beleiving that the US government changed him, and that by helping WAD-R bring it down, he'll get his revenge. In short, he's a 2m X 5m Zerg Hydraliks that has an ego the size of Saturn. He is wise cracking, and likes to bother newbies (and mainly everybody). Real sweet when he wants to be. There is a picture of him here and a description here.

Garr Aileron
Garr's description novella

Sender Genetically advanced human male, age 16. 6 feet tall, medium build. Escaped from a secret government research facility (Area 51 anybody?) with his 30 foot mech companion. He has black-brown hair, eyes that swirl with the colors of the rainbow (usually hidden behind sunglasses as to not alarm the general populace), wears dark clothing, biker gloves, and usually is always armed with a thermonuclear laser pointer and a laser targeted 45 semiautomatic handgun. More suspicious than Fox Mulder, less crazy than Faenix. Lately he has begun to repair old vehicles, and now has an fully souped up Harley Davidson and Jeep Wrangler. Met WAD-R by chance, (read the story) and lately has been resigned to make fun of Fenrir.

Deceased:

• ~Jeffy: Beyond Unexpected and Drawing the Line
• Seth: Drawing the Line

Code-G: Code-G is a top-secret anti-governmental force that intends on restructuring the government through subversion and undercover operations. They are very close to the Men in Black, but are out to basically help humanity, with their own definition of "help." WAD-R, being one of the few organizations that knows of Code-G's existance (and the only one to survive for any appreciable length of time) is high up on their hit list. Picture. Most, if not all, of Code-G was destroyed by a small thermonuclear bomb F�nix planted in the Statue of Liberty (now the "Crater of Liberty").

El: El is about 50 years old, with dark black hair and blue-gray eyes. He is the leader of Code-G. Cold and calculating, he believes fully in his cause. His methodolical processes have managed to keep Code-G together and in hiding for many years. Some people in Code-G think that he might even have founded it, but he has given no information on this. Very few people know that Code-G even has a leader, and fewer still know about El. For all intents and purposes, any history he has has been erased, with "El" being only a fragment of his original name, Leach. Anyone who learned his old name died shortly thereafter, usually by El's own hand. El is thought to have died when Code-G's main base was destroyed.

Billy Ray (yeah, the guy from Redneck Rampage): A drunken redneck. Extremly dense, almost incapable of communicating with words, droolsa lot. Wears a pair of old worn jeans with suspenders and no shirt. Owns a pickup-truck with a trailer which serves as CWLAH's mobile HQ. Fights with a two-barreled shotgun.

Grand Moff Ogre: A somewhat cunning and mildly brutal WarCraft 2 style ogre. Has two heads, each with its own personality. The head to his right (which is bald and has a bent horn in the forehead) is thoughtful and prefers to sit back and think of a good plan beofre doing anything. The head to the left (bald, with thick black eyebrows), likes to skip the thinking and simply stride to action. Since the left head is more aggressive, it usually wins the many arguments that Grand Moff Ogre has with himself. When Grand Moff Ogre (the whole ogre, not just a head) is angry with something, he usually lets out his emotions by grabbing the object (be it a thing or another CWLAH member) in one of his gigantic fists and repeatedly smash it hard with the other while yelling curses. Has sworn to rule the entire world, and therefore wants WAD-R out of the picture. Is CWLAH's leader. Usually fights with a big mallet in each hand.

Newbie-1-Kenuuuuuuuubie: A guy who is made up of all the prejudices that exists about Internet newbies. Is loud- and foulmouthed, understands nothing, and usually keep annoying people by telling them how superior he is, can act in a rather offensive manner when people don't agree with him. His language is "W4r3Z", which is like the written gibberish that replaces certain letters with numbers or symbols and randomly switches capital and small letters, most people have a hard time understanding what he says, with the exception of Nimrod who thinks Newbie is "133+". Somehow, he uses the powers of the Force from Star Wars, he also wields a lightsaber and dresses like Obi-wan Kenobi.

Nimrod: Your average computer geek. Is very pallid and of a rather delicate frame, has thick untidy red hair as well as thick, untidy glasses, always wears a grey anorak. Whines a lot and is quite a wimp. Always carries a lap-top and a satellite modem with him. His skills with the computer makes him almost as effective as WAD-R as a propaganda spreader, he is the source behind 95 % of all internet rumors. Usually stays behind in battle and hides in the trailer. Feels extremly ill if he is exposed to strong sunlight.

Mecha-Chicken: When Jim James Jeen Jebocksbackberry died, his mind was salvaged by Nimrod and put into a mechanic body made from metal junk and spare parts from various machines. Unfortunately, the material Nimrod had to work with designing options rather limited, a chicken was in fact the closest thing to Jim's old form he could get. The chicken is about two meters tall, has metallic wings (a mechanic prehensile claw is attached to the right one) and a beak made from a borer on a machine used to make mining shafts. His voice is created by a loudspeaker located in the throat, but sometimes it hangs up and turns hsi voice into a clucking stutter (this is very likely to happen when the Chicken is angered). Despite his new body, he still is a fault-finding old man on the inside. Has little or no respect for people who are younger than he (which means all of CWLAH except for Ogre and Pristly) and people who he considers to be out of their minds (which means he doesn't really respect Pristly, either). Like to refer to people hedoesn't like as "mavericks".

Pristly Flowerman: A really old guy who still acts like a clich� hippie. He has long white hair that is thin on the top, wears shades with round red glass, curved outwards jeans and a white shirt or a T-shirt with a psychedelic motive on it. Usually seems to be in a reality of his own. Uses a wooden placard which reads "Peace" as a weapon.

Tahd: Seems to define every single quality that Jim James Jeen considers to be maverick:ish, he is extremly ego-centrical, self-confident, insubordinate and likes to play stupid practical jokes on people. Has a constantly self-righteous expression on his face that any human immediately grows to loathe, that expression has twice its normal effect when he's smiling. Always wants to play the hero and always wants to be in front, will immediately sign up for any mission Grand Moff ogre gives to CWLAH. Fights with a six-shooter revolver.

thugs: Not any really specific characters, just a bunch of random thugs that have been recruited by CWLAH. They are not very bright, but makes up for that by having a lot of muscle power. Are used as CWLAH's front soldiers and fights with whatever weapons they are given (crow bars, machine guns, laser rifles, whatever...). They speak a language even simpler than that of Billy Ray, it consists of only "one vocal one consonant words", "two vocals one consonant words" and "one vocal two consonants words". They usually are killed after some time in CWLAH's service and are replaced by new and identically stupid thugs.
