Okay, we should decide on characters for the project. We may not use them all, but let's have them.

Character Name: (Duh, what you wanna call the character)
Graphic: (Use http://www.geocities.jp/kurororo4/looseleaf/ for XP design, and printscreen the results)
Type: (Hero/Villain/NPC. And What role do they have, as in are they a shopkeeper, a cute witch, what?)
Backstory: (Where do they come from, what do they want)
Personality: (Kinda self-explanatory)
Current History: (How does the party meet them. Possibly subject to change)
Powers: (Specific abilities, and also immunities/resistances)
Weaknesses: (For villains this is an actual strategy of defeat, for heroes it's mainly the drawbacks of their powers. NPCs might not have a Powers or Weaknesses section)

-----------------------

Character Name: Ambrosia Brahmin (from Oracle of Tao)
Graphic:
Type: Villain. (Former hero, now an evil shopkeeper)
Backstory: She used to be a hero that saved that universe on a mission from God. But, she kind of got bitter, and a bit crazy, after her journey ended and her boyfriend left her (her bf looks like Cloud Strife).
Personality: Sugar and Ice Personality. Why the heck someone like this is running a tavern adds to the strangeness.
Current History: Recently, she became the manager of a local tavern that sells items and beds. When the party asks her for information, she flips out and decides her former boyfriend has sent them to spy on her, and has a battle with them.
Powers: Sorta like a summoner, except she calls energy rather than actual summons. Her powers are strong but very slow to use (delayed effect). Alexander (light spell), Apollo (defense effect), Chronos (a slow effect), Thanatos (death effect, plus some dark damage), Lilith (dark spell), Four Gods (elemental damage), Michael (physical, plus some light damage), Aiken (does damage based on the same element that controls healing), Tao (yin-yang nonelemental damage to all targets, powerful, so takes several turns to cast)
Weakness: Besides the fact that her casting is slow (and some of it does no damage), she's got pretty low hp, and low defense. This is to make up for the fact that most of her attacks almost kill the party.

Because it's still up in the air about which maker will be use for the layer 1 stuff, I'm holding off from working on my layer 1 character. But for now, here's a random layer 2 kid:
Charles Travis "the pizza boy"

This kid used to get beat up all the time when he was in middle school. Nowadays, despite the "less hostile" company of high school, he still spends a large amount of his time cooped up inside playing video games. He has a part-time job being a delivery boy for Pizza Pavilion and thus is known almost exclusively as "the pizza boy" by his peers. He's used his pizza boy status to sneak into house parties a couple of times but most of them ended with him being tossed out. Despite his attempts, he still doesn't have a girlfriend. He's also interested in model airplanes, soccer, TV (mostly the really old show channel), and his pet goldfish, Sara.
He might appear to be a withdrawn softie at times, but once you get to know him, he can actually get quite talkative and genial; though at times just a little ornery.
Layer 2 stats:
Attack: Medium
Speed: Medium-high
Defense: Medium-low
SP Attack: N/A
SP Defense: Medium-low
HP: Medium-high

Online, he likes to type using "1337 sp34k" and often disregards grammar (especially when time is of the essence). He's usually charges into battle without second thought and thus sometimes lacks in strategy until he's been hit a couple times by the enemy. His weapon of choice is the Morning star (those swingy-spikey ball things) because "it just look c00l with all those spikes and stuff, okay?".
Layer 1 stats:
Attack: Medium
Speed: High
Defense: Medium
SP Attack: Medium-low
SP Defense: Low
HP: Medium-high
