I can see that....(Incendly, In the game I'm playing now, all the characters
are named after Ranma characters, Save Cyan who's Mamoru, And Umaro Who Wendago

Hmmm, this is Intresting...well, I just can't see Ranma as locke, or Akane
as Celes, because I couldn't see Ranma sneaking around, or Akane being
Delacte enought to do hlf the stuff that Celes does....
(I have her as Nabiki...heh, and then that Charscter I created was Locke,
but thats becasue he is Locke..

	But I want to keep the relationship intact!  Besides none of the Ranma 
character is capable of magical ability to start with, so I figure a little 
bending on personality wouldn't hurt.  As for Ranma, I never consider Locke to 
be a thief.  Indeed, he is a treausre hunter!  Also, if Akane has been brought 
up as a genetically engineered magitek knight like Celes does I'm sure she could 
do the same thing.  

	Ukyou = Rachel

But then she dies! Couldn't we make Her Akane?

	That's what I had in mind in the beginning too.  However, I'm convinced 
that Locke loves Celes more than Rachel, so therefore my Ranma equivalent 
characters should be the same.  Ranma may feel responsibity and friendship for 
Ukyou, but he really loves Akane in his heart.

I still thing Kuno would make a better Edger, but Mousses waepons do fit...

	Well, Kunou can't be multiple character at once, otherwise I would have 
let him be Edgar.

	Shampoo = Terra

Terra seemed rather gentle and Kind, So that's why I thought of Kasumi as
her, but Ukyo would work better (I'm sorry, but Shampoo cannot make it as
one of those people....)

	I don't think Shampoo is that bad.  Certainly not on my favorite 
character list, but not on the hate-list either.  She has a lot in common with 
Terra too.  Abnormal hair color, amazing fighting ability, confused, and 
indecisive.

	I still have yet to decide what the roles of Kunou should be.  He fits 
Edgar's Woman-loves-me personality but also somewhat fits Cyan's medieval
style. 

I can see him as Cyan...

	Only if there are two Kunous the problem would be a lot easier...

The roles of Ranma & Akane were simple:  Locke and Celes were the only
couple.  
Ugh....you ruined my favorert 2 charcters form the Game....same thing with
Terra...

	Hey!  Celes is my favorite character, and I think it serves her justice 
for Akane to be her.  Ranma and Locke fits together very well, too.  Locke has 
always been tormented by his mistakes because of what happened to Rachel.  
Similarly, Ranma's tormented by his multiple fiancess.  As for Terra, Kasumi 
simply won't work.  Terra could be gentle like Kasumi, but then how could Kasumi 
be half-esper and half-human?  Not to mentions the hair color, too!  Terra has 
green hair, so Shampooo's purple hair fits her too (they're both weird hair 
colors).  

Shampoo...Right...

Thanks to piccolo (I think) for giving me this idea.  If anyone has any
idea for 
possible character please let me know!

How about The Princapal as Kefka? Hmmm... Happy as Shadow?
Kurumi as Relm...or amybe Hinako-sensei..., Genma as Strago...?
Hmmm...

	I've Kodachi for Kefka right now.  I scrambled her name and it is now 
Koichad.  I don't know about Shadow because no one from Ranmaverse really fits 
his personality.  Anyone got an idea for Setzer?  That's where I'm really stuck. 
Gambler King comes into mind, but I just have a hard time picturing Gambler King 
proposing to (insert who you think Celes would be, for me it is Akane) that 
whether she want to be his wife.
