Well, I only looked at the ones that really seemed like badfics. Here's what I found in them that might help:
- They were in the canon world.
- It ripped off a book's entire plot.
- At least two, (if not more), OCs were supposed descendants of canon characters that had none.
- The one canon character that was in the one of the badfics was totally out of character, besides contradicting the laws of science. (She was in the story even though she was supposed to be dead by then.)
- They had modern songs with a few words replaced to fit the timeline.
- Almost every OC had Mary Sue qualities.
- The badfics didn't make any sense half the time.
- There was bad grammar and spelling.
Does that deem the badfics killable? As in, if I ever found some more of these and put them in the Unclaimed Badfics section of PPC's wiki, would another agent kill them?

In that case, I'd say it would depend on a few factors.
Is it in the canon world? -Big deciding factor~.
If it is, does it warp the canon world? Just having it be a mediocre fic with WTF characters in the canon who happen to be related to canons might not be enough.
Does it contradict anything canon? - This is the important thingy, PPC wise I believe. (Boring story is one thing, boring characters another, but when they start breaking things...!~)
Are the OCs plausible as descendants of the characters they're supposed to be related to? - As in for example, no, OC may not be the grandchild of Captain Jack Sparrow via the good captain's MPreg baby. (Captain Jack of Torchwood however is plausibly allowed an MPreg baby since Torchwood canon seems to have an anything goes policy when it comes to sex.)
In short, it's a big question of is this a bad fanfic, or is this a bad original story?
In other words, is the fic actually plac

I'm of the opinion that if they're using a Canon world and claiming to be descendants of a canon character, especially if said character either has no descendants or they're already accounted for, then it's still killable.
I'd either kill if they were Sueishly bad, or recruit. I did so in my second mission when a Sue created two new kids for Aragorn and Arwen so that she could play babysitter. I offed the Sue and recruited the kids, both of which are now happily in the PPC Nursery. (See http://cassie5squared.livejournal.com/13973.html#cutid1 for details)

I still have my jacket from last year, the one with the DMS flashpatch. Remember it? :P I'll fix it up a bit (the patch is starting to come off) and come as an Agent, then. *glee*
And I reckon you could look in local fabric shops... or maybe Google for the pattern or something. If it comes to it, you could always just ad-lib. :P *grins* Ah, yes. The maple syrup. An essential part of the whole thing.

I was reading through some of the spin-offs and looking at some badfics when the thought occurred to me: What do you do about a badfic that has nearly all OCs? I found some with supposed "canon-character-descendants", but despite that fact, the canon characters weren't mentioned. I'm just wondering if the other agents kill it as usual or if they leave it alone. *shrugs*

Welcome to all that wish ot remember our fallen comrades. They would want us to remember them with joy, instead of sorrow. Here`s a glass of *beverage of choice* to them. Now, lets party!
*note* Leto and his wife Jane are open to anyone who want to use them (the owners of the store). Leto is an average modern day human for Canada and Jane is a Dragon from the Rifts universe. Jane can be whatever form she wants to be, she also has a tremendus amount of magical energy.
The staff of the store are minis from the various contunuii. Head of Staff is Smeagul the mini-balrog. He likes shiny things.
I will be posting under the name of Milask for the rest of this thread. So whatever you do with Leto and Jane is canon. Their children (the triplets) are off limits. Anything else goes. (Please, don`t make Jane want to devorse Leto!!!)

This could be a good chance to introduce them, fortunately RPs don't require Permission. I don't think I ever welcomed you, so consider this a welcome post, too. :P

Hello, everyone. As we all know, yesterday was the anniversary of the Mary Sue Invasion which took the lives of 1000+ agents. However, I was too sick, tired, and overall distracted to do much of anything to commemorate the occasion. I don't know if any of you remember my post trying to gether interest in a memorial RP, it was forced off the page by the April Fools' one, heh. Regardless, I am attempting such an RP on the other Board, but before I actually make the post I would like to make sure there are people interested. I know Leto (who suggested the General Store be used), Cassie, Trojie, and Gabriel are interested, are there any others among you? If nobody's gonna be interested, after all, I might as well just write an interlude. :P

Agent Adder is a bit of an animal freak, and does not tolerate the slaying of cute non-humyn animals. Particularly kittens-- *attention is diverted* ADDER! DEUCE! PUT THE FOSSILIZED DUNG DOWN!

Resurrecting ... the CAF Agency! by
on 2009-04-18 03:13:00 UTC

The space smelt vaguely of feathers, straw and disinfectant, and it was dark, and there was a suggestion of rising damp on the nearest wall, but it was perfect. Agent Trojanhorse of the Department of Bad Slash looked around it with an approving smile on her face, and dropped the cardboard box she was carrying. It raised a puff of dust as it landed.
The first thing Trojie pulled from her box was a fluorescent light tube. And a stepladder. Once she had the place properly illuminated, she extracted cleaning products.
Three days later, two concerned figures - one short, blond and male, the other tall, redheaded and female - found her mucking out practically fossilised Hippogriff dung from one of the stalls.
'Trojie?'
The agent in question raised her head. 'Yes?' she asked brightly.
'Are you okay?' asked Pads. 'I haven't seen hide nor hair of you for ages.'
'I'm perfectly fine,' said Trojie. She peered at the stall. 'And it looks like I'm finished, too.'
'Finished?' asked Oscar.
'Yep, finished. All clean.' Trojie looked around the place once more, and smiled. 'The Cute Animal Friend Adoption Agency is once more open for business!'
***
Basically, it seems like the CAF Adoption Agency has been sadly neglected for a long time. Agent Trojie, in the interests of not filling her RC with homeless animals any more than it has already been filled, has volunteered to start it back up again.
So if anyone comes across Cute Animal Friends or miscellaneous minis for continuua who don't already have keepers of lists of minis, feel free to email me at trojanhorseshadowfax AT gmail DOT com and I'll keep track of them. And if you'd like to ADOPT a retrained CAF or need a specific kind of animal for a mission (horses, dogs, etc, perhaps), feel free to get in contact with me and we'll see what I can sort out.

Agent would probably be easier because you can just get a black T-shirt and jeans. Add black circles under your eyes and you're done ^_^
Does anyone know where I could find a pattern for making a fox costume? If I just use one layer of fur-fabric, maybe with a bright red lining if I have time, and an opening up the front, I could make it look like a pelt. Cut the edges ragged, tear out random clumps of fur, splatter red paint and maple syrup on it, and I'm done! (If anyone reading this isn't familiar with the mission in which Agent Laburnum acquires this pelt, odds are they don't want to know about the maple syrup.)
