Hey there. I may be interested in working something out with you, I'm about to start college myself, my second to last quarter actually. Woo! Ahem, with fandoms I do pretty much prefer to keep the canons where they are. I'm not big on OCs however, minor OCs who could develop into bigger roles, is something I could be talked into. My comfort (and enjoyment) is developing the already existing characters, plus when both writers know the dynamic, it's more easy/fun to plot together, than to try and help plot for purely made up characters. I've been playing through Fates again myself (I've beaten all three paths twice by now) so I can understand its charm. An issue with the fandom is just the sheer size of characters to select. I mean almost anyone can form a bond with anyone so I'm sure you've put people together I haven't yet and vice versa. I'm sure youtube has all of their conversations but it's just overwhelming. In the best way though. My interest here is tentative but I wanted to at least ya know, I too enjoy a good fantasy with so many characters. I'm not really into Naruto anymore so that might require a lot of convincing. Have you dabbled much in Dragon Age? Some other (not quite fantasy driven) fandoms I may mention: Star Trek, Jessica Jones, Daredevil, Orphan Black, Harry Potter, and/or Sherlock Holmes (not BBC's version).
