Sorry,this is a stupid post,but I'm so happy because this is the first time I get an avatar out of MMCafe (not that I don't like MMCafe ones,but I wanted a change) .
Anyway,the girl in my avatar is Niele . She's from a Brazilian HQ called Holy Avenger (no,you didn't read it wrong,the title is really in English,although the story is in Portuguese) . It's a manga-style HQ,but not really a manga . The story happens in a RPG-like world called Arton,and both the story and the world of it are great,very rich in details .
Niele is one of the main characters (although the real main character is another girl,Lisandra) . Niele is an elf and also a mage . She's really funny,happy and (as you have already seen) she doesn't like to wear lots of clothes . However,her past isn't so happy,as we find out in the story ... During the saga,she was killed,but since the Goddess of Magic likes her,she let Niele come back to life . Her favorite quotes are : "Ooooi,zênte !" (it means something like: "Hiiiii,guys !") and "Sou linda,gostosa e adoro ser lembrada disso !" (it's something like :"I'm pretty,I'm hot and I love when people remind me about it !") .
Probably you won't be able to see this HQ,since it's produced only in Brazil . But if you have the chance to read it,do it ! It's amazing ! If you want some images,Holy Avenger official site is : www.holyavenger.com.br (although it's in Portuguese) . If any of you want more info,feel free to post your doubts here !
Thank you all for your attention . See ya !

HQ?
Yes,it's a HQ (or a comic book series,magazine,etc.) . All the characters have manga-like looks (including that sweat behind the head and those funny faces),the story could be for a manga series (you know,lots of action and humour) . However,it's not a manga,because :
1) You read it like any usual magazine (unlike mangas,which you read "from the end to the beginning of it") ;
2) It makes parodies of not only mangas,but also U.S. heroes (although it happened only once or twice) and they use Brazilian slangs ;
3) Unlike in mangas (and like in X-Men magazines),there are two pages of the amgazine dedicated to letters from the readers,and who answers the questions is a character of Holy Avenger,the sweet-hearted centaurian girl Odara) ;
4) There are also 4 or 5 pages dedicated to RPG news and curiosities (since Holy Avenger is produced in the same place than a Brazilian RPG-dedicated magazine,Dragão Brasil) .
So you see,this is actually neither a manga nor a HQ,but a mix of both .
Any other questions,just ask me (but please,do it here;my e-mail is with some problems) .

What do the letters H and Q refer to, and are all HQs modeled after Japanese comics / fan-comics? Even if they are parodying something not Japanese, they may be modeled after Japanese doujinshi or the drawing style might be that anime influcenced look.

Oh,I'm sorry ! I hadn't understood your question before . I don't know what the letters H and Q refer to (can anyone answer this ?),but I know they aren't modeled after Japanese comics . Maybe this is a Brazilian term (but I don't think so),but here we say,for instance,that Spider-Man and X-Men are HQs . Like I said in the end of my post,Holy Avenger is actually a mix of Japanese comics (initially colored,then black-and-white drawing;funny faces,anime-style characters,etc.) and the usual comics (reading from left to right,mailing section,alternate stuff inside the same magazine,etc.) . You may consider it a manga if you want to,though;I don't think calling Holy Avenger a manga would be wrong .
Right,about the scans . Sorry,but I've been absent from here the whole week . I've searched for scans in fansites,but I haven't found anyone so far (plus,my computer doesn't have a scanner for me to scan my magazines) . If that helps,look at my next post in this thread,where I'll explain better the story of HA,post links to the images of the 4 main characters and explain their stories .

Right,here it goes :
Main Story :
The story happens in a RPG-based world called Arton .In this world,there are lots of species living : humans,elves,dwarves,orcs,kobolds (small monsters who can be quite dangerous in groups),among others . This world is protected by the Panteão (what means Pantheon),composed by the 20 most powerful gods of Arton . However,not all the gods of the Pantheon are exactly good . There was a rebellion involving Valkaria (Goddess of Ambition),Tillian (God of Craziness) and the Terceiro (Third One,I don't remember what god is he),but they were defeated . Valkaria was turned into a rock (but she's still in the Pantheon) and the other ones were banned from the Pantheon and imprisoned . Then,Sszaas,God of Betrayal,convinced the other gods about the necessity of making the Rubis da Virtude (Virtue Rubys,I guess),each one containing the power of the god or goddess who made it (by the way,two other gods substituted the other two ones,they are : Ragnar/God of Death,and Hyninn/God of Cheat) . But everything was actually a plan from him,who wanted to get the Rubys and destroy them (except his own one),to become the most powerful god of Arton . Unfortunately,after he got all the 20 rubys,he didn't know which one was his own . Then Khalmir,God of Justice,fought Sszaas and (supposedly) destroyed him .
What would happen to these rubys ? Wait and see the Part 2 .

Okay,here it continues :
No one knew where Sszaas had hidden the rubys . Then,one day,they were actually found by a group of adventurers : the necromant Vladislav Tpish,the bard Luigi Sortudo,the sea-elf princess Lenora,the (average) thief Leon Galtran and the Paladin from Jallar . Before this,they fought Sckhar-Sckhantallas,the Red Dragon King (he's a real dragon,but he can also appear as a man) . During the battle,the stupid Paladin of Jallar was killed,but Leon not only stole his treasure,but also accidentally tore an image of Beluhga,the White Dragon Queen and Sckhar's love,enraging him . Later,they fought a snake-woman,Aspis,and got the 21 rubys (yes,I know,no one knows where the 21st. ruby came from) . Vladislav later tried to use the rubys to ressurect the Paladin,and when he did this,the Paladin not only came back to life,but is also the most powerful being in Arton,MORE POWERFUL EVEN THAN THE GODS FROM THE PANTHEON ! He's now the main hero from Arton (not from HA),but his attitudes during the saga show that he may be not so heroic ... Anyway,Sckhar tried to punish his enemies in different ways : Vladislav's daughter,Petra,was affected by an "incident" in his laboratory,and now she can't smell anything (that's why she's the worst cooker in Arton) . Lenora disappeared,and Luigi,who's in love with her,lost part of his happiness . And he offered a great reward from Leon's head,making an average thief becom known as "the best thief in Arton" . Some people,trying to get the reward,killed Karin,Leon's wife and Sandro's (one of the main characters) mother . But the Paladin remained as the most powerful hero from Arton ... untilthe day he was challenged by Mestre Arsenal,main priest from Keenn,God of War . Somehow,Arsenal won,and the rubys got spread in the world,while the Paladin was dead .
What happened then ? Go to Part 3 .

Here I am,writing the Part 3 of the story (cronologically,the info in Part 1 and 2 is just revealed later,while the beginning of the main saga is here),while listening to Christina Aguilera's new song,"Dirrty" . Wow,she's changed a lot ! Also,I read that her video of this song is even more sex-appealing than Britney's "I'm A Slave 4 U" video (considering that Britney appeared being licked by a guy and making those sounds,I just wonder what Christina does in her video...) . Anyway,back to the story :
One day,the druid Lisandra (the main character) started having dreams where the Paladin asks her to reunite the 21 rubys . She also finds his body in Galrasia,the island where only she and some kind monsters and animals live . She then goes to a small city,Malpetrim,where she starts her search . However,some guards kill her "cousin" (a wolf) after it attacks them,and Lisandra is arrested . Later,she escapes from prison with the help of Sandro Galtran,Leon's son,and both find and get the first Virtue Ruby . She then thanks him,and then the story begins : Sandro finds out that there are other rubys and in this search he knows the crazy elf Niele,"the most powerful mage from Arton" . Lisandra also finds Tork,a dwarf troglodyte who is like Lisandra's adoptive father (although he's even younger than her),and he helps her in her journey . These are the 4 main characters,but there are many other ones who are also important,like Anne (sister of a pirate who was Niele's partner,who later joins Sandro and Niele in their journey),Petra (Vladislav's daughter and the worst cooker from Arton,she considers Tork a special person because he's the only one who likes her food) and Tarso (a little and funny skeleton,who strangely seems to have a great power,he was supposedly created by Vladislav and is a kind of bodyguard to Petra) . Other important character is Odara,a centaurian girl : she doesn't appear in many editions as a character of the story,but she's the one who answers the readers' letters .
How is it now ? Let's see : Lisandra isn't a druid anymore (she was abandoned by Allihanna,Goddess of Nature,after she awakened her evil side),and no one knows if she will stop her evil side or surrender to it ... Niele,Sandro,Tork and Anne are searching for her,but their lives are in danger ... and the Paladin shows his evil side and is going to fight Sckhar,who will win ? Let's wait for the answers .
Oh,I'll still post tonight some more info and pictures of Lisandra,Sandro,Niele and Tork .

Phew ! This is finally ending ! Here are some pictures of the "main" characters (since there are actually at least 20 main characters !) :
Lisandra : http://www.holyavenger.com.br/img/elenco/certo/lisandra.jpg
Sandro :

All together and colored :
http://www.holyavenger.com.br/img/download/img-grandes/ja-chegamos.jpg
http://www.holyavenger.com.br/img/download/img-grandes/a-grande-farsa.jpg
Right . Now,some information about them :
1) Lisandra :
Lisandra was a druid who accepted the mission of rescuing the Virtue Rubys (actually,Rubis da Virtude) to Paladin . She first thinks that she's in love with him,but later,we find out that she's being controlled for a powerful spell,that even the real most powerful mages of Arton,Talude and Vectorius,couldn't free her from it . She's a kind and innocent person,and she doesn't want to hurt anyone . However,she recently awakened unconsciously her evil side(because of her obsession about getting the rubys),and when it happens,no one knows what will happen ...
*Fun facts :
- Although Niele is the most popular character,Lisandra is the main character .
- She is the only character who changed her outfit more than once . The one you see her wearing in the images above are her first one (she's nowadays with a third one) .
- Lisandra used to be a druid;however,Allihanna took out her powers when her evil side prefered to kill Camaleão (a morphing villain,disguised then as Sandro) and get his ruby,instead of saving Niele,who was deadly hurt . Niele died in this battle (one of the most touching moments of the saga),but don't worry,she's alive again now (but not with a weak excuse like in Marvel comics ...) .
- How does Lisandra still have power if she's not a druid anymore ? Well,her mother was a nature fairy . Plus,her father is really powerful (although she doesn't know him) . Her father is :
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
Mestre Arsenal
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
*SPOILERS*
- That's it . We're hoping that Lisandra can be saved from her craziness ...
2) Sandro :
Sandro is a thief-wannabe,who tries to be as good thief as his father was . However,Sandro is too STUPID to be a thief ! I'm serious : stupid,silly,unintelligent,call him whatever you want . He has a kind heart,though,and he's a great hero (but an awful thief) . He entered here when he helped Lisandra to get a ruby . Later,he heard that Niele,"the most powerful mage of Arton",had the real ruby (he didn't know there were 20 rubys),so he tried to get it . But he entered in her room when she was naked,using a spell to produce a hot rain (shower ?);Niele got angry because he tried to rob her (she actually didn't even mind that he saw her naked),but after a lot of confusion,both became good friends . Sandro is currently with Niele,Tork and Anne trying to rescue Lisandra ... Will he save her ?
*Fun facts :
- Sandro is in love with Lisandra,but he's so stupid that he didn't realised that (while all the other characters except Lisandra already did) . But while they were apart,a bad guy disguised himself as Sandro and killed Niele,so Lisandra is really wanting to kill Sandro ...
- His father is considered the best thief from Arton,although this isn't true ...
- Niele knows that Sandro likes Lisandra and tries to make them love each other . She also knows that Sandro is shy and likes to kiss him,hug him and doing to him all the things that a girl shouldn't do to a shy guy ...
- Have I already mentioned that he's stupid ? But I still like him .
3) Niele :
Niele is known as "the most powerful mage from Arton",but this is not true . She doesn't know how to do a single magic spell;however,although she didn't know it,one of Sszaas'eye is in her staff,and that's why she does such great spells . I've mentioned the main info about Niele,before;however,I didn't explain why her past isn't so happy as her . It's because A Grande Aliança Goblinóide ("The Great Goblin Alliance"),a great army of orcs,goblins and other monsters dominated the Elf Reign (where she lived),killed lots of elves and kidnapped her cousin,princess Tanya . Niele could do nothing to stop it,and as the humans and even the Paladin refused to help her,she just watched defenseless her people being killed . The surviving elves also blamed her as the responsible for it . Niele was killed in the saga as previously said,and her soul went to the Realm of Wynna,Goddess of Magic,but as Niele saw that her friends needed her,she asked to come back to life,Wynna didn't like the idea,but she let Niele ressurect . Will she die again ?
*Fun facts :
- Another nice quote from Niele is : "Sua maga elfa favorita tá de volta !" ("Your favorite elf mage is back !") .
- In the 13th. issue (if I'm not mistaken),Niele and Lisandra went to a clothes shop,and they appear dressed as Street Fighters (Lisandra=Chun-Li,Niele=R.Mika),Slayers (Lisandra=Lina,Niele=Naga),Pokémon (Lisandra=Misty,Niele=Jessie),Magical Knights of RayEarth (Lisandra=Anne,Niele=Marine) ... just comical ! Niele also appeared in other edition as Serena Tsukino (before transforming into Sailor Moon) .
- Niele's clothes (or the lack of them) show that she's HA sex-symbol,but as you read the saga,you just get so used to it that it looks a common suit ... Weird ... She's more a funny character than a real sex-symbol .
- Niele had a partner,the pirate James K.,but he didn't like her very much (he was always in a bad mood) . He's currently missing,but his sister Anne is still here .
- Oh,and she's very,VERY crazy ! That's why I like her !
4) Tork :
Tork is a dwarf troglodyte,and the most intelligent of the team (he's not very intelligent,but who couldn't be smarter than Lisandra,Niele and Sandro ?) . Tork likes to get drunk in taverns (especially the Taverna do Macaco Empalhado,or "Palliated Monkey Tavern"),then he gets in fights and use his stinky gas to knock out opponents,then he's arrested . That's his life . He raised Lisandra when she was a child (though he is actually younger than her) . Like Niele,Tork has a sad past : a belief said that a dwarf troglodyte brings bad luck,so his parents abandoned him when he was born . He was then hired by an army to fight an evil sea-elf . He won,but left this job and started acting as a mercenary . He didn't want Lisandra to meet the humans (which he considers bad guys),but later accepts to join her on her quest . During it,they are separated from each other,he gets blind,he gets his vision back,he gets a new suit ... many things happen to Tork . Nowadays,he was transformed temporarily into a dragon by Niele and he,Niele,Sandro and Anne are trying to help Lisandra,who's now becoming evil . What will happen to Tork ?
*Fun facts :
- Tork is a blood-lover troglodyte . He loves to kill his opponents,but when sweet girls like Lisandra and Petra are next to him,he becomes more paternal-like .
- He also likes to say bad words . Actually,thanks to him,Lisandra's first words were bad,innapropriate words ...
- Tork feels disgusted every time he sees human women's breasts,yelling "Mamíferos nojentos !" ("Disgusting Mammals !") . So,working with Niele isn't exactly a pleasure to him ... Also,a curiosity : Lisandra,Sandro,Niele and Tork never appeared the 4 of them together in the same place . This will probably happen next month,when he will have to fight Lisandra ...
- Tork isn't a life model,but like the other characters,he's nice anyway .
And that's it . I bet these are my longest posts here since I came to this Board . Sorry for taking your time,and I hope you apreciate them !
I can be any person in the world...Maybe I'm this person right in front of you...or not!
