Clarification and in Search of Clarity  
After some concern from participants and discussion within Team Mod, we've decided to amend the RPF rule to exclude relatives of famous people who are not famous in their own right. The non-celebrity girlfriends and relatives of actors or politicians, for example, will not be permitted. If one wishes for a similar dynamic, perhaps consider nominating a generic character under Original Works.


Can whoever nominated Sarah Jane Adventures and/or Star Wars: Knights of the Republic comment here? I tried to transfer your pairings into their mother categories, and they... vanished. I can re-enter them manually, if you'd like, but having accidentally vanished them, I can't track down what they were.

Agreed. I think Female Main Character or Female Protagonist is probably the best option. And I sort of have my doubts that they wouldn't use yet another name for her if she appeared in the main series again, especially given that the male main character has three different names in three different adaptations (including "Sakuya Shiomi" in the same musical FeMC is named Kotone Shiomi). I am leery of using Kotone Shiomi as the canonical name because it comes from a piece of side media I doubt most fans are familiar with and would be more confusing to people looking to sign up than Female Main Character. Maybe a fandom shift will happen in that regard, but I doubt it will happen before sign-ups are over.

Atlus really needs to give their characters some freaking default names.
