Toby and her group. The YPM. Loren. Tom and his parents. Rachel's father. Just to name a few.

Eva. *rings the Obvious Bell*

     Because, you know, she only got an entire book to narrate, where she outlined her origins.

     :p

Melissa. You know that those 3 years took a toll on her.

I would have liked to learn more of Crayak during the Ellemist Chronicles, and to have some evidence that Rachel hangs out with Melissa.

Seeing things from the Visser's point of view.

A segment of the narrative (not necessarily an entire book) narrated by Erek, David, Toby, or one of those other characters already mentioned in this thread would be nice to read.

As it is, I can get fairly good fulfilments of those parameters through fan fiction. (I've read at least one story by each of those characters, two for Toby, my favorite character.)

That was Edriss, so no, Eva didn't. We don't even know if Eva had a job.

Yesss the governor was awesome!

     Does this mean that Ahnuld will make an appearance in the re-release?

     Animorphs save the Governator? :o

In your story, you had Eva as a real estate agent, right?

I really wish Joe Bob Fenestre had become a reaccuring villain. He was such an interesting alternative to the Vissers.
Title: Re: Great Characters You Wish You Could Hear More From!
Post by: Chad32 on March 31, 2011, 03:42:07 PM
I think he made an interesting villain as well.
Title: Re: Great Characters You Wish You Could Hear More From!

Oh yeah, more Joe Bob Fenestre would be incredible. Or even just more mentions of him after #16.

Local campaign manager.

It would have been nice if the Auxiliaries had been introduced into the series earlier, and had actually been developed as characters, rather than just being a Redshirt Army (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RedshirtArmy) . . .

     Taylor, deffinitely. And maybe some narration from those few Andalite traitors, just so we know why they did what they did.
Title: Re: Great Characters You Wish You Could Hear More From!
Post by: Chad32 on March 31, 2011, 08:40:39 PM
I'm only aware of one Andalite traitor. That guy from book 18. I would like to know exactly why he did it, though.

     The second-ranking Andalite in the Arrival.

How about the mystery alien(s) from "The Familiar" featured only in the last few pages of the book in Jake's semi-conscious state?

Not so great characters which I wouldn't want to hear more from...Helmacrons!

Ah, yes. That's right. You know I consider that canon, right? Great job choice. And... sorry for asking this here, Lisa, but - in your story - was Edriss 562's previous host before Eva really Lore David Altman?
Title: Re: Great Characters You Wish You Could Hear More From!
Post by: LisaCharly on April 01, 2011, 12:08:46 AM
I think we heard too much from the Helmacrons! XD

Dogman - no, I had it be another host since I figured it'd make more sense to have Edriss have a few hosts before Eva. If you have any more questions you can PM me, and thank you!

Aftran.  I wish she'd stayed in touch somehow with the Animorphs...if only she'd become a human nothlit and stayed with them!

Who's form would she have taken? I wouldn't expect her to be able to do a frolis maneuver. (did I spell that right?)
Title: Re: Great Characters You Wish You Could Hear More From!
Post by: Myitt on April 01, 2011, 01:28:26 AM
Why wouldn't she be able to picture the forms of the people whose faces and forms she knew, through Cassie?  Frolis maneuver, all the way.

yep agreed, honestly Crayak needs his own book. And not one that cleverly skips over big important things like who the higher power is like the EC did with the Time Matrix.

You can't morph something just by picturing it or remembering what it looks like. You have to touch it and acquire its DNA first. Aftran would have to acquire a bunch of human DNA at once while in her natural slug form.

Post by: Chad32 on April 01, 2011, 01:14:37 PM
You have five samples, just as much as Ax. Unfortunately there would be a greater risk of her being infested. Unless she went to a YPM Yeerk.

Yeah, obviously Aftran would have to touch all of the Animorphs or a few humans and acquire them, then perform the frolis maneuver.
