Ranma Saotome:
Main character of series. Turns into a female version
of himself whenever he's splashed with cold water. This effect is reversed by

with cold water. Set up engagement of Ranma and Akane with his best friend,
Soun Tendo.
Akane Tendo:
Fiance of Ranma. Engaged to Ranma against her will. She is
VERY violent, and also somewhat of a Tomboy. Although she always says she hates
Ranma, states he's a jerk, she does seem to care, until Ranma insults her. Then she
promptly smacks him, usually very hard. Akane is also an AWFUL cook.

scheming ways to make a few Yen.

to never have a clue to what is really going on. Once when Ranma was fighting
someone, Ryoga I think, Kasumi stated, "They're such good friends."
Tatawaeki Kuno:
Furinkon High's biggest pervert. Can't make up his mind
between his Pig-tailed Goddes(Ranma in Female form) and Akane Tendo, yearns to date
them both, and is constantly beat up by both. Kuno is known to go around quoting
Shakespeare saying things that make no sense according to the situation. Calls
himself "Blue Thunder."

Psychotic sister to Tatawaeki Kuno. Runs around laughing
psychotically in a leotard lusting after her "Ranma honey."

The Eternal Lost Boy. Ryoga has the worst sense of direction
in the world. He sometimes can't even find the exit to a house, even after being
told where it is. Ryoga longs to be with Akane forever, and hates Ranma for the
things he's done to Akane, mainly treat her badly. He also turns into a little
black Pig named P-Chan by Akane when splashed with cold water.

Cologne is dead set on getting Ranma to marry Shampoo, tricking him many times into
feats nearly impossible, but Ranma always outsmarts her and avoids a wedlock
with Shampoo. Called "Old Ghoul" and "Granny" by Ranma.
Happosai:
Genma and Soun's master. Happosai is said to be the heart of all evil in Japan.
He is a great martial artist who has a nasty habbit of collecting women's
undergarments. Happosai is often called "Old Letch," "Old Goat" and just plain pervert
by a great many people.

Loyal retainer to Tatawaeki Kuno. Sasuke seems to try and take charge of a
situation for Kuno, and always manages to bothc it up, often getting Kuno intead
of his adversary.
Ukyo Kuonji:
Ranma's "cute fiance." She at first wants to kick Ranma's
butt for leaving her behind, when Ranma really had nothing to do with what happened.
She then decides she'd rather date him than kill him. She wields a wicked spatula and is an
excellent cook.
Well, this is all for now. I hope to add more characters soon, and eventually
have graphics of each character.
