I personally love to assign classpects to fictional characters, particularly ones I have created. I will provide an example with a mercenary character I came up with for a video game. The mercenary is a character that will take any amount of payment, but will fight longer and hold back less if you pay him more. Leumas is the name of an alternate world that the protagonist and the mercenary happened to wind up in at different points in time. His father also ended up dying before he wound up in Leumas, and he could theoretically go back since Leumas and the "human" world aren't connected time-wise. Mercenary: Knight of Breath - A Knight has been speculated to be one who wields their aspect as a weapon. The Mercenary uses his freedom obtained by entering Leumas to work as a killer for hire.
- Knights are also speculated to serve with their aspect. In which case, the Mercenary could be interpreted as using their freedom to serve others by offering to kill for a price.
- Knights are also known for masking their emotions. Dave masks his emotions with irony, Karkat masks his emotions with his constant shoutiness, and Latula masks her emotions with her “game grl” facade. The mercenary does the same, masking his desire to go back and save his father by pretending he’s moved on.

I have also pondered these questions. I have come to the conclusion that Garfield would be a Prince of Space. To quote Dahni, a prince of space would be "violent and pessimistic" and that "They would be very stubborn and set in their ways, unable or even not wanting to change how they do or see things, wrongly believing that if they keep doing it over and over, eventually it will work. "  This comic helps showcase this.

I just read the Knight of Breath classpect analysis, and it says, "They'd have to decide whether to stay on their own as a mercenary, or ground themselves with their friends." Well, then. That about confirms my belief that the Mercenary is a Knight of Breath.

I don't suppose you've met with Amber Cragg's take on the cast of Steven Universe.  [/img]

Trivia fact about that picture: Hussie actually praised it and said they were good title choices. So naturally the Classpecters went nuts to try and use these characters as further reference points for figuring out the system. However softowl, Hussie's then partner said that he'd only seen half of one episode of the show, so these aren't necessarily reliable examples.

I knew he praised them but the rest of that is new and hilarious information!
I personally still think they're pretty perfect though. I've always held that figuring out classpects is only 4 parts analysis and 13 parts instinct. All the comic ever talks about is how esoteric and malleable the titles are.
Maybe to give the topic a little direction, Fire, you could post a list of characters for us to squabble over?
