[Character Information] Permissions Post: Billy Kaplan / Wiccan
This permissions post is mostly relevant to Superheroes, particularly of Earth, but other, popular and modern-ish geek-culture characters also apply.
EDIT: first, as a role reversal note- if you play a geek-fandom character who would be familiar with Young Avengers or Billy himself, he's been made aware of the fact that he's in comic books in at least one other universe, so fourth-walling on him is okay. However I'd prefer if his future wasn't revealed.
Billy/Wiccan is a fanboy. Probably to the nth degree. He knows a lot about the superheroes of Marvel-616 Earth, their archenemies, whatever could be considered "public information" in regards to heroes, and some unpublicized stuff, too. Additionally, it's been ICly recognized that he's into more geeky stuff, like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and Lord of the Rings, so it's safe to assume he knows a fair bit. It's never indicated that he's into manga and whatnot, so I'm gonna assume he knows the bare minimum, like popular series and video game stuff. There's a lot of potential for what he could know, though, so feel free to give it a try anyway if you want, and I'll look into it and confirm yea or nay. He's like a human encyclopedia of useless information. And as a super hero he has access to the Avengers database, so there's a lot of important info he could potentially be aware of.
Unfortunately, I am not an encyclopedia, just a simple player who lacks his years of obsession. I'm going to try to educate myself via the Marvel Wikia and other Wikias for the popular stuff, as well as reading all the comics I have time for, but it isn't always clear about what can potentially be known by others and what is private. That's where you come in!
If you have a character that Billy might know or know about, fill me in on a few things! I'll keep it in mind during threads. He'll almost certainly keep quiet about things that might upset people (such as telling them they die in the future if a player would rather they not find out, because that could suck), but he can still quietly fanboy about them and say awkward things that make no sense from time to time. Hurray for brainbreaking?
Chronologically I've taken Billy from the year 2011, so he could potentially know anything up to spring of that year. For the Marvel timeline, he's from the Civil War, so comic-relevant stuff up to that point would be known.
So for Superheroes, fill this in, please:

Thank you so much for your help, guys!

Character Canon: PGSM (live-action) Sailor Moon
How popular is it? Sailor Moon is incredibly popular ever since its creation, and has strongly influenced the entire genre. It has many, many versions from the manga, to the anime, to the live-action, to the stage musicals, to a new anime coming in the summer of 2013.
It should be noted the live-action series, which this Ami comes from, is much less known and was not released outside Japan. Unless a strong fan, Billy's more likely to know the anime/manga instead.
What year is it from? This version is from 2003-2004 and set in that time.
Anything I should know about the canon/character?
Pretty basic knowledge about Ami is that she's incredibly smart, the brains of the group, and always wanted to be a doctor. Also, she's quite shy and polite. As Sailor Mercury, her main powers are over water.
Less basic: She has insecurities based around making and keeping friendships, and secretly wishes people saw more about her than just the genius/schoolgirl. She is from a wealthy background, but her parents are divorced; she lived with her mother, a doctor.
Obviously secret: She is Sailor Mercury. If Billy would know the canon, I don't mind him knowing this, but she will be a bit wary of someone who already knows this large secret when she doesn't know much about them.
