what if one was prompting characters from non-animated parts of a light novel series?

I hadn't thought of this, but you have a good point. Minor roles (or later ones) for women might not appear in the anime/manga adaptations. Juunikokuki comes to mind as an example. Though I suspect that if you've already prompted characters like this for this round the mods probably aren't going to weed them out, due to time constraints and the fact that they're pretty easy-going folks. ^_^
