I know that some of you haven't read the entire Animorphs series or haven't read it at all, but I would like for us to try to do an Animorphs RPG. I'll do a quick summary and character identificatin before we sign up.
Five teenagers, who I will explain later, were given the power to morph into other animals by an alien called an Andalite (a blueish alien with the back of a horse and upper part of a human, only with no mouth, two "stalks" on top with one eye attached, and has fur). When they want to change into an animal, they simply touch them. The original animal is unharmed and becomes quiet during these process. Later on in book 8, they gain another member of the team named Aximili-Esgarrouth Isthill, aka Ax. His spaceship crash-landed on Earth.
The evil is called Yeerks, a slug that crawls into your ear and control you for three days. The only reason why is because they need nourishment and no body they inhabit can give them what they need. The humans that are possessed by the Yeerks are called Controllers. Once the Yeerks need nourishment, they head to the closest area that has what they need and slip from their host. The host is kept in the facility because they would start spitting out stuff about aliens that control you.
The absolute main evil are the Vissers, the top Yeerks of the chain. Visser Three is the main one in the series, taking on the host of an Andalite. Vissers Two and One are unknown.
Here are the main characters of the series:
Jake- becomes the leader of the Animorphs. He is courageous and brave
Cassie- is an animal lover. Knows a lot about animals and is more quiet. Black-skinned
Rachel- the headstrong one.
Tobias- is the more quiet one than Cassie. He accidently overstays the two hour limit and remains a hawk forever. However, he regains the ability through a creature named Elimist. Also, an interesting fact about Tobias is that his father is the Andalite that gave him and the others the morphing power.
Marco- the jokester. He doesn't take things too seriously. Also, his mother is inhabited by Visser One.
I forgot to mention that the morphing power only lets you stay in an animal form for only two hours. Any more and you are stuck. That is the fate of Tobias.
Now... for the sake of our RPG, I am gonna mix things up and take some stuff out. Like, Tobias will be a human and not a hawk. The only cannon couple we are gonna keep are Jake and Cassie. Also, when we start the RPG, Ax will be crash-landing on Earth.
The rest is left up to us. If you need help with the series and the other stuff, look it up on either wikipedia.org or look on Google.
