As I have not openly admitted yet, I am that individual who was also known as Viperfish. I did some fan fiction excerpts several months ago, and have since then been hoping someone would take interest and request some more.
Well, I have hit upon the solution I think would tailor-fit the BB fans on this forum and make for some interesting stories. PM me with a couple of your fave figures, and I will post some stories centered around those characters.

Hey Red, what's your angle with this? Plans, character bios, plotline etc?

[Red Marauder]

Any and all of the above! Anything you want. I have some short stories under the Fan Art and Customs sections (see Brooding Heart and the Rain, An Afternoon of Silence, and Cat in the Catacombs on pages 2 and 3) which are just short narratives without much to go on in the way of plot, but I've also written some technical pieces on the background of Battle Beasts (their synthesis, though I never went into their 'creators', as I'd like to leave that completely to speculation; their armor, weapons, and emblems) and while I've never tried my hand at character bios, I could give it a try. Bios rely a lot more on a rigid plot structure than you would at first think, owing to the need to distinguish each beast by their common sufferances and relationships to each other. Do you place each beast in their seperate camp, all three clans entrenched in a bitter struggle for dominance? That brings everyone back to the same dilema: what's your personal take on Battle Beasts? Did Takara do a good enough job, or do you prefer to spin your own tales? I prefer to spin my own tales, far removed from anything you would recognize of the provided plotlines.

Hmmm, while I personally don't really have a 'favorite' Beast to name for you, might I suggest starting by looking through some of the poles that were posted a while ago and maybe create a story giving background towards the given rivalry?

The poles was a X vs. Y type asking which Beast would win in a one on one combat situation... do you think this would be a good starting point for you?
