Kay. This is all the characters I need. At least for a very long time.
If you have more ideas, suggest them as stories to use with the characters we already have.
Also if you want to, you can write a "guest" story and I'll put it in the book and give you credit.

Why do most of you keep posting people between 17-25, thats not usually when people die. Just saying.

Well take my eighty year old for instance. He's dying in a completely natural and boring way. Same might happen to my sixty year old, I didn't specify. The point is, these people aren't exactly exiting to write about. You might be able to give them a pleasent background story and stuff like that, but it's the same principle as why almost all these people are going to hell - normal people just aren't interesting enough. Have you ever read a book that went "Charlie was born. He went to school. He got decent grades. He got a job as a photocopier repair man. He retired fifty years later and died some time after that."? I doubt it - books like that sell few copies.
