being recently awakened from a dark age, the first character that I created is
still sitting on my stereo: Sir Tetsukaze, the Samurai Knight.

Like I said, the first is Sir Tetsukaze, and the most recent is Maxxus
Runetwister, apprentice to Willa the Witch (I'm in the middle of the Fright
Knights series, so sure me :P)

I'm an old-fashioned guy, so my good guys are GOOD, and my bad guys are BAD!!!

Yes: Tetsukaze's keep, that was awarded to him for loyal service by the king.
The actual name is in japanese, but when translated it means "pile of stones"
Which is how Tetsu sees most non-asian castles...

Right now, about a half dozen. Most of them have names and some story behind
them.
6. Which Castle subtheme has the best figs?
Hmmm, tough question. Right now, I'd have to say Fright Knights, if for all the
variation in bodies and faces.
> 7. Is there a type of fig you find easy to make? A type you find difficult?
I don't have much problems putting figs together, but figuring out what works is
sometimes not so easy...
> 8. Have you ever bought a set just for the figs?
Heck yeah! I personally wish that TLC would release big $50 sets of nothing BUT
minifigs!
> 9. Which non-Castle theme is the best source of Castle compatible figs?
Star Wars, without a doubt: Good for capes, hoods, 'glowing' bits, unique heads,
just about everything!

Once I have a good fig put together, their backgrounds and stories just seem to
write themselves. I've never had much of a problem in that area...
