Notes: Lives with Obasan at the Fuben Shrine. Obasan is also a still-active demon hunter. Natsumi's big weapon is her "demon squasher" which looks a lot like Skuld's big hammer. She has a Spirit Guide who supposedly helps her named Cornelius, or "Beefy Bob" if you prefer. Her weekly allowance is $40.
Cornelius the Spirit Guide: Known better as "Beefy Bob", Natsumi's spook familiar hangs around making comments, offering ineffectual advice, and occasionally doing something useful despite himself. He is a lecherous old ghost who tries to encourage Natsumi to use her transformation sequence at every opportunity, simply so he can see her naked for that one brief half-second... Natusumi would probably be better off without a spirit guide, but when she's lost or confused she still asks him for advice.
Stuff In Locker: Warp Space Overnight Bag, Timestop Makeup Kit, One-of-a-kind Prom Dress, Spare demon squasher, spare school uniform & gym suit, "Choose your own Seal" flip book, Big illustrated book of demons, holy spooks and naughty spirits (abridged).

Smarts: 6
Bod: 4
RWP: 3
Luck: 5
Driving: 3
Looks: 6
Cool: 6
Bonk: 5
Powers: Girl/Boy/Girl, Three's A Crowd, Swap Shop
Knacks: Weird Science +3, Figure Things Out +2
Traits: Superiority Complex, Practical joker
Notes: Adjuka looks like a short, young girl with pointed ears and horns (a sort of demonic elf). She is the greatest genius in the galaxy! Or so she (he?) thinks (she has a bit of Washu in her). She loves to build new gadgets and try them out on her test subjects (read: fellow students). If chaos ensues, that's okay with her because she kind of enjoys causing chaos. She's likely to come on to anyone, male or female, without regard to whether she's male or female, although a favorite trick of hers is to switch sex roles on her partner (for example, change a boy into a girl, then become a boy). This usually causes panic and chaos but that's okay, Adjuka likes that. She has a bit of Futana Shimeru (Futaba kun-Change) in her, too.
Stuff In Locker: Owns a hyperdimensional hammer and her hypertransdimensional Space Tesseractokoosh.
The Hypertransdimensional Space Tesseractokoosh: This is something Adjuka made from the parts of a Boy/Girl gun, a Duplicator gun, and a Bonk regenerator. It looks and works like Mihoshi's control cube (Tenchi Muyou), ie it normally looks like a white puff ball or koosh, but when massaged correctly turns into a sort of crystal rubik's cube. By turning the cube you can make things happen! Currently the three options are: Boy/girl, Duplicator, and Bonk Regenerator. However, Adjuka's not always as smart as she thinks she is, so when she built it she didn't get everything right. On a roll of 1 when using it, something goes wrong and the effects are randomly determined by the gamemaster. Also, when massaging it from a cube to a koosh or from a koosh to a cube, there is a 50% chance of it accidentally going off. Adjuka has plans to build more options into her invention.

Notes: Uzi believes in conspiracies, and can be very paranoid about it. Her ususual transformation is into a sort of survivalist camoflage/magical girl "3rd World Intergalactic Commando" outfit (you'll have to imagine it for yourself 'cause I can't). She can transform into other costumes as well.
Stuff In Locker: Fairy princess dress, wand and "How To Use Your Magical Girl Powers" book, all unused. A revised Hitch Hiker's Guide "Don't Panic, Be Prepared".

She looks like a young, somewhat feline girl with a long tail (Cat Girl Nuku Nuku, maybe a bit of Catreece from Reality Check). She loves to chase mice. Her 'Dad' is Dr Gakki Kurihara, a top scientist for the J.D.F., working at the Mihoshi Institute of Technology. He loves to dote on his 'daughter'.

Powers: Breath Fire, Filthy Rich, Superspeed (Run Like Heck)
Knacks: Whine and Weedle +1
Traits: Cowardly, Shy, Eats Cars
Notes:Kenney looks a bit like "Kenney" from South Park (kid smothered in a hooded parka) and a bit more like a big ball of fur with two eyes and two feet (in tennies). He is the cowardly son of an alien Emporer. He was sent to earth as part of a student exchange program. When hit on the head he breathes fire automatically. The sound effects for this are "Braack" and "Foosh" (belch & breathe fire).
No one knows what Kenny looks like inside his coat. Or who his parents are. Or even what his real name is. (Kenny's baby picture can befound on page 174 of Abdul Alhazred's Necronomicon, if that's any help.) He occasionally gets hassled by crazy old librarians who've read too much
Lovecraft. :-)
Kenny and Laura were initially both enrolled at Miskatonic Junior High, which oddly enough isn't there anymore...No one ever asks Kenny for his coat. Laura suspects Kenny could do a lot more damage than just breathingfire, if he really put his mind to it, but as Kenny exhibits little evidencethat he has a mind...
