Okay then.

First of all, my bad for not clarifying where exactly everyone's character is in the real world. I hadn't really mentioned it since, dub naming aside, the real world's setting tends to be Japanese, as are the characters (mostly). Plus, I figured any possible IRL interactions could just be handwaved; I'm not focusing on realism here, after all.

Secondly, there's no 'fetishising' of anything going on here. Most of the characters are Japanese, hence, Japanese names.

And thirdly... why does the characters' genders matter? The anime has the cast as very predominantly male, too. Not to mention it has no bearing on the overall plot.

Now please, no more arguing over ethnicity or genders or anything like that. It's incredibly pointless and not at all a good thing to be complaining about.

That line about all the Japanese girls was supposed to be a joke anyway. (Hence the xD at the end...) It was just an observation, and I didn't intend for it to be perceived as complaining.

I'm fine with dropping it. ^^

So yeah, at some point I decided that this was totally going to be how Kaori gets around if/when the action shifts from the VR world to the real world. >.>

Human
Name: Lazlo
Username: 0 (Pronounced: "Nil")
Age: 17
Appearance:

Personality: Have you ever heard the story of the Lion and the Mouse? It's a tale with a heartwarming moral that teaches that mercy brings it's rewards and there is no being so small it cannot help a greater. Lazlo, or Nil as he likes to be known in the Digital World, is a boy that resonates with this teaching. He's an exceptionally empathetic young man that treats people kindly and with respect. In the story, a mouse accidentally wakes a fearsome lion from it's slumber. The lion is enraged and catches the mouse in it's paw. The poor mouse manages to convince the lion that there is no honor in killing him and thus the lion spares the mouse's life. Some time later the lion is caught in a hunter's net, his fate seemingly sealed. That is, until the very same mouse he saved heard his cries for help. The mouse came to the lion's aid and gnawed through the net, freeing the lion. If the lion had never allowed the mouse to keep it's life then he would have lost his. In this respect, Lazlo isn't such a bleeding heart. If you only do good deeds because you expect a reward in return does that still make you a good person? The fact of the matter is, though Lazlo seems kindhearted and sincere he is in fact motivated by selfishness. If he believes there is nothing to gain from you then you will see an entirely different side of him. More so than likeable, more so than generous and much more so than honest, Lazlo is a self-centered, egotistical individual whom only looks out for number one.

I'll have to ask why PlatinumSukamon becomes IceLeomon, since I can't really see any kind of correlation between the two species at all.

I think the line is really clever. Admittedly, it requires some thought though. I think that PSukamon and ILeomon are visually very similar, they're both white and have leather wraps around their arms. Their names, Platinum and Ice are both synonyms of one another in jewelry slang. There's a very popular story called the Lion and the Mouse where a Lion is awoken by a Mouse but decides to spare it's life. That story is referenced in this line, the mouse becomes the lion after going through poo. If you factor into account that the character's name is Nil, meaning zero it's as if the mouse goes from zero to hero.

If you don't like it, I guess I could go for something a little more generic...

I'd also like to point out that my CS isn't finished yet. I just posted it to see if the code was all working fine but then the site crashed for me and I couldn't get back.

All righty then, with that explanation, I suppose I don't really have a reason to reject it. I can't really find any concrete information regarding limitations anyway.

Took a while to finish since I had no idea how to word the personality and I'm still not okay with it, but I don't want to be too late so here she is anyways.

Human:
• Name: Kiva Dunois. Just "Kiva" online.
• Age: 17/17
• Appearance: Whee.
• Personality: A bit rough around the edges, but she's well-meaning and tries to act like a big sister to the others... Even the ones that are older than her. Contrary to her rough and tough appearance and persona, she harbours a secret weakness for cute things.
• Digivice: Something like this.

Digimon
• Species: Fanbeemon
• Nickname: Zabi
• Evolutionary Stages: Pupumon > Puroromon > Fanbeemon > Waspmon > CannonBeemon > TigerVespamon (via Biomerge, if it's okay)
• Other Forms: N/A

... still don't think that line makes the slightest bit of sense. Ice would describe a diamond, and the story doesn't suggest that sort of link at all. Especially not a mouse becoming a lion via becoming a pile of crap beforehand. >_>

What's under that mask, anyway?

I'm going to look past the rude undertones of your post, Rainah. Thanks for your input, though it was certainly unhelpful and served little purpose, I appreciate it all the same. As you can see though, it's been accepted and most importantly, I like it! Even though you clearly don't, so much so you've decided to dedicate your precious time to telling me so.

WhAt'S uNdEr tHe mAsK YOu AsK? A poker face and a devilish smile.

If everyone is super opposed to me having this line then I'd be happy to change it so long as you're all polite about it. I don't really see what the fuss is about though. There are cannon lines that make much less sense and are much less aesthetically pleasing than mine.

True. Although I find this line asthetically pleasing, it's still random. You have:

Yukemibotamon, Nyaromon, Salmon, Gatomon, Angewomon, Magnadramon

A snowball, a cat, a dog, a cat again, an angel, a dragon

And people complain about Pokemon not looking like their evolutionary forms. xD

Not sure why you decided to be passive-aggressive about it.

Going to disagree on the 'aesthetically pleasing' front.

Haha, thanks for the example, Crimson Flame. What is your opinion by the way? Do you think I should change it? I wouldn't mind going for Biyomon - Kokatorimon - Sinduramon - Houhoumon. It's just, Sukamon is my favorite! But Kokatorimon is a close second.

Echoing this. I do not see in what dimension a talking blob of slime is considered "aesthetically pleasing".

Lost Cause and Raineh Daze, I'm just going to ignore you both. Obviously the two of you have a fire in the belly and are just looking to start an argument. I'm not going to give it to you though, hehe. Peace and love. :P

There wouldn't be an argument if you'd listen to valid criticism. You're going from a virus-type vermin to gilded crap... okay, that's apparently in one of the games somewhere, and vermin -> filth makes sense. You're then going 'piece of crap to ice-power vaccine lion' because... they have the same colour. And because of one story containing a lion and a mouse (the same can be said for mice and cats, mice and elephants, mice and dogs, mice and people, mice and birds...)
