1) How did you choose the character's names?
I am really bad with coming up with creative names. Anyways,
 * The name "Gage" came from one of the main characters of a Halo: Reach machinima titled "Falcon Down".
 * While writing Chapter 3, I created a new character, but I was struggling to name him. Starrystar34 came at the perfect time and asked me, "Can you make a character called Andrew the Sniper Monkey?"
 * Some people have noted that Gary is not a fitting name for a Ninja Monkey. I was too lazy to choose a better name, so I stuck with Gary. Gary is a funny name for a Ninja Monkey anyways...lol.
 * The name Chris was suggested from SW8573, and I felt like using the name for the main character. It's also a reference to Chris from NinjaKiwi.
 * Ryan is my first name, so I was like "Why not use my own name in the fanfic?" :P

2) How old are the characters?
I meant to explain this in Chapter 1, but I forgot. I will do this sometime in Part II.
 * Chris is 16.
 * Gary is 17.
 * Ryan is 18.
 * Andy is 19.
 * Gage is 20.

3) What upgrades do the main characters have?
Of course, the characters will get upgrades as the fanfic progresses.
 * Chris is a 0/0 Dart Monkey. Don't underestimate that!
 * Gary is a 3/2 Ninja Monkey.
 * Ryan is a 3/2 Boomerang Thrower.
 * Andy is a 4/1 Sniper Monkey.
 * Gage is a 2/2 Super Monkey.

4) The prologue...what is its purpose?
The point of the prologue is to show that the majority of the fanfic, or Chris' experiences, is told from a 1st person perspective. Using a journal to achieve this was quite convenient.

Depending on how successful this fanfic is, there may be a sequel. I am planning to have Tony (Chris' son) to be the main character.
