Festive
Gerlando
Fetzen
Lurking Krog
KumbarisWould certainly be worth trying.
I wonder what kind of weird thing I could be.

Appearance:
Name: Brody Jackson
Age: 16
Nationality: British
Noble Arm Name & Appearance: Le Bouclier - Spartan Shield
Noble Arm Rank: D
Noble Arm Abilities:
Sentinel By striking his shield to the ground, Brody can place a protective shell around himself or an ally. This shell can block all damage of a single attack, but is destroyed simultaneously. Only one Sentinel shell can exist at a time.
Phalanx Le Bouclier can absorb strikes hitting it, and then release them back. This requires touch, however.
Personality: Kindly, sensitive, foolish
*Likes: Personal space, metalworking
*Dislikes: Doing laundry, music
Fears: Dark
Bio: Brody Jackson was born to an average middle class family in Yorkshire, England. His life has been as normal as a person in a world of Noble Arms can be. He went to school, did some part time jobs on the side and surfed the net. He did at one point pick up metalworking as an art hobby.
Brody had mostly drifted through his life, with little lifelong goals in sight besides metalworking. Everything changed when he was looking for some scrap metal to work with. At the scrapyard he pulled out a wrong piece of metal and the unstable pile of scrap fell on top of him. Scared, Brody put his arms above his face. However, he wasn't crushed, but instead found to his surprise an ancient Greek shield attached to his left arm. Brody gave a push, and suddenly all the scrap on top of him just flew off, like exploded.
After some time of emergency calls, questionings and surprises, it became obvious that Brody had gotten himself a Noble Arm, one taking the form of a shield. Although Brody had no real interest in fighting and just wanted to return to normal life, as drifty as it was, It was decided that Brody would need training in his Arm before he could decide his future. And so it was that Brody Jackson ended up in Trinidad, with a shield in his arm and an uncertainty of future in his mind.
*Current Goal: Find some sort of calling in life, preferably before he graduates.
Student Rank: 748
That should do it.
@Chiro, Can you resize the pictures, and put Brody's picture under 'Apperance:'?
Otherwise acceptable, though.
Okay.
How is a picture resized?
Took a while, but I finally managed to finish my character sheet. Hope you like it:

Might try this as well. Already have an idea or two regarding the subjects, whatever they might be.
I also have a link (which may or may not be the same link Jerkchicken has) to The Colors of the Sky 2 - Kappa's and Oni's magical adventure - supplement, which adds some American, or at least Western story elements. The Henge (and Mononoke) available there are Kodama, Western Fox, Witch's Cat, Raccoon, Sheep, Tsukumogami and Magical Girl (who, like Witches, have male counterparts).
The authors sure have a wide repertoire available.

The Colors of the Sky-supplement also has mouse, wolf, horse (or rather pony), fish, and for those wanting to play humans, witch.
But if we're going to add possums and the like, we probably should go without rules, though the books are good guidelines for how characters may act. Besides facts, looking for associated folklore and popular culture on possums would probably be helpful in developing the personality traits and skills of the character.
Although a little personal twist in character shouldn't hurt too much. I was thinking that my character is a dog, who spends his days with the family's littlest ones watching Paw Patrol (or whatever this world's equivalent to it is) and other pre-school edutainment shows. As such when he transforms, his "clothes" are like those of a superhero, and his actions take heavy inspiration from the shows the children watch. He sings, uses catchphrases, quotes and in general acts over the top. He may grow out of it, or go in his own direction, depending on where the story goes.

Sounds like a fun concept to try. In fact I might have a possible character concept already.
As for the setting, how about an Americasian place, like in Big Hero 6 or Ace Attorney or Yo-Kai Watch or... Well, you get the idea. Basically we're in America, but everything is comically Japanese (e.g. We eat "donuts", when they're really onigiri).
