CANON INFORMATION NIGHT!
The game's pretty big isn't it? With so many characters it's sometimes hard to keep up with everyone's canon and character backgrounds. Not to mention that the apps aren't always placed in the character's journal, and it leaves you wondering how they are, or even where they come from.
WELL WONDER NO MORE! It's time for a canon and character night!
The idea behind this post is primarily an information exchange. Just fill in this form, and think about factoids and things in a list form. Remember, you're trying to sell your character & canon to others, so talk about what makes them unique and fun. With any luck, you'll learn some new things about other people's characters that you can base relationships or friendships on, or even find a new fandom which catches your interest!
Note: Please mark the top of your thread with the canon. This way, other people in your canon can add whatever they want to it, such as their character stuff, and other cool factoids about the canon that they might remember.
You are perfectly fine and more than allowed to ask questions about the fandoms to the other players if you wish as well!

Canon: Kick Ass
Interesting things about the character:
On of the most violent, twisted little girls you will ever meet, whether you read the comic or the movie. Kick ass describes her as "Rambo meets Polly Pocket." At one point (in both mediums) she and Big Daddy have a criminal in a compactor at the junk yard to get information about the big baddie. Even after he tells them, they have the compactor crush him anyway, with Hit girl's reaction: "What a douche."
Has quite a mouth on her, once again, whether its the comic or the movie. Not afraid to drop a few F-bombs at the drop of a hat.
Her training is done by Big Daddy, but the reasons from the movie and the comic are different. In the movie, Big Daddy as a cop refused to be a dirty one, so D'Amico has him framed and sent to jail, and Mindy's mother kills herself in grief. In the comic, that is the story he TELLS Mindy: in actuality, he's just an accountant who wanted a more exciting life, so he lies about this to his daughter and trains her to be a hero fighting crime. In both mediums, he dies: burns to death in the movie, shot rather gruesome like in the back of the head in the comic.
Mindy has kevlar down to her underoos. It's true.
In the big gunning scene, (movie) Mindy has a moment of reflection and fear before bringing out her weapons and going crazy on the bad guys. In the comic? She takes a whiff of cocaine (which her father called condition red) and proceeds to take out men WITH A FLAMETHROWER (she got it on ebay).
Hit Girl is not afraid to let body parts fly. Not even a little.
Hit Girl cares about the ship, if only because it made sure she didn't die. That doesn't mean she likes the idea of risking her life for people she doesn't know. That wound up getting her shot. It sucked.
If she has a partner (Kickass/Ruffnut) she takes their life preservation seriously, but expects them to pull their own weight.
Interesting things about the canon/fandom:
Canon is a little bit "The Watchmen" with a good dose of Frank Miller. The author's intention is essentially showing why being a her in real life gets you killed. The protagonist Dave Lizewski learns this the hard way.
There are several moments of totally nerding it up, in both the comic and the movie.
It's a pretty grim place, whichever medium you read. Even with the movie people get tortured pretty badly, especially Dave at one point.
I stayed away from the comic because of how darn depressing it gets for awhile, but eventually relented and like both mediums now. But the comic is definitely not for the faint at heart.
Its not finished yet: there is a 2 in the works.
Anything else?: BEST THEME EVER.
