A princess who when forced to chose between marrying the handsome farm boy and the prince, marries the prince.

A Don who when his kinfolk are killed in a hit sends word to the police(Omerta only applies to unimportant gangsters after all).

A ninja who does not wear a ridiculous white kimono while on the job but simply dresses like a traveller to mix in. What the heck did you think he was going to do, announce it to everyone?

A bartender who is utterly incompetent at mixing but pretends he has invented a new drink thereby. He is not a knowledge broker but the cops ask him questions to make him feel important.

A bookie who is kind and generous toward clients. If they are to obviously profligate he simply freezes their credit rather then having them beat up.

An orphanage tender who is kind and thoughtful to the children. When an Adopter comes around they always give a hug before leaving. And usually pay them a call to say hello regularly after that.
