Captain Untouchable

I'm pretty sure I made a bandwagon joke last time we did a slew of these, and you all know how much I like recycling the same jokes over and over, so here we go.
I have quite a few (^_^;) characters, so I'll only be drawing attention to the ones I'm writing as / hoping to write as at the moment. Feel free to weigh in on others though, particularly if you want to see more of them: here (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showpost.php?p=377682) is a full list.
Star Wars
Vansen Tyree - He started out as pretty much a one-dimensional character, but I've done a lot more writing with him lately (and his younger self). Does the new direction I've been taking work, or does it feel like I've saccrificed too much of the concept just to make him more writeable?
Inyos Aamoran - This guy was supposed to be a one-shot for those Montegue Origins threads that I did, but I ended up keeping him around because I had a soft spot for him. Once the current threads with Wyl and s'Il are done though, he's pretty much at a loose end; and he's certainly been a loner until now. He's getting a padawan at the moment; but does anyone have any thoughts on how else I could integrate him better in to the Jedi?
Jaden Luka - This guy feels really flat to me. He feels like Apollo but without the angst and the daddy issues: just a generic pilot who is a bit of an uptight ass at times. What should I do to make him into a bit more of a compelling character?
Amos Iakona - He was created as a concept, and then I had one of those "Balls... what do I do with him now?" situations. He needs to do get his training going properly, and I have one or two half-ideas for him; but as with Inyos, any thoughts on how I could make him less of a lone wolf?
Torrsk Oruo'rel - Another character created for a specific role. However, since we're a little light on aliens around the place, I'd be interested in doing more with him. Should SpecForce's leader and Bothawui's representative be reserved just for mission briefings and political events, or do people want to see him sticking his nose into other stuff? Perhaps providing a politically-themed antagonist for the Wheel?
John Glayde - He also feels pretty flat. He seems to be a character largely defined by his relationships with others, and doesn't (to me, anyway) seem to have much of his own personality. Anything I should do, or should I just concentrate on surrounding him with more people to bounce off?
Regan Altink - Shameless rip-off, yes; but that's what he's there for. Would people prefer to see him develop a little more, or is he best left as a comic relief cliché?
Muridaemus-musculus & Trip - I'm enjoying writing them... but are they fun to read, or just annoying?
Mutants, Unite
Tom Harriman - He's definately had a surge in activity lately, and is a lot more important in the grand scheme of things than I was expecting him to be. Plan A was for him to pursue his vigilante/Orion exploits with a little Treadstone/X-Force on the side (kind of a Wolverine), but now he seems to have wound up as more of a Cyclops. Should he concentrate on Brotherhood-type threats, or mix in some gang stuff? And more broadly speaking, what would you like to see from Treadstone/X-Force as they start fleshing out?
Kat Harriman - I wasn't expecting to play her in the US at all, but now she's here. She seems to alternate between Baby Sister and Brat Sister; I'm not really sure what I'm doing with her, to be honest. Ideas would help!
Hurucan - How does this guy seem to you? Is he evil? Is he insane? Is he a massive electric douchebag?
Orcus - I've only done a couple of posts as him, though he's cameo'd in other threads. Like with Hurucan... how does this guy seem to you?
Heidrich Alderman & Marcus Godfrey - Very new characters without much done yet, but who I'll be writing as a fair bit. First impressions?
