Well, historically, LEGO has made very few "evil" minifigs. On that basis, I
would assume that all the male castle minifigs are good and all the female
minifigs are evil. :')

Well, now that I think about, a more interesting question is:
Are most castle minifigs gay? In all of castle there is the Forest Wench, the
Guarded Inn Princess, the queen in the old "Jousting "? set, and the witch.
So, with no women around, what are these knights up to during the night? :')

I know where mine go -- One morning I caught a bunch of drunken mercenaries
over at my wifes' Paradisa setup. From that day on it has been known as
"Cin's shack of sin".

Which brings up a question: What happens to your Lego when you aren't looking?
I know that no lego MOC is safe in our basement - there's about 4 or 5 people
who have MOC's in our basement at any given time, and all of them are ripe
targets for oddball scenes. Two that come to mind:
The Invasion
My wife's castle was sitting there, all innocent, when two of us concoted
about a dozen robots out of various black bits and peices, and invaded. Over
the course of the next few weeks, a pitched battle was fought, but never while
anyone was looking... Eventually the robots were repelled, but not without
several memorable scenes.(1)
Keep a close eye on that ninja!
A friendly little inn, with a couple cozy rooms, a kitchen and a commons
sat, unmolested. Then one day, a ninja wandered past. No one paid it much
attention. A short time later, a rope appeared on the side of the inn. Over
the course of a month, the ninja slowly climbed up the inn, until he was
looking in the open ceiling. Over a few weeks, the rope was slowly lowered
into the inn, but no one paid it much mind. The next thing anyone knew,
everyone was dead, and the ninja was nowhere to be found...For all we know,
he's still out there somewhere, slaughtering oblivous patrons in some other
inn...

Reminds me of the time I left a variety of aquanauts, pirate, and town sets
laying round my student halls of residence. Over the course of a couple
weeks, the pirates monkey managed to abscond up a (real) bonsai tree with
the treasure, and a good collection of silver spears and knifes.
Many pirates were felled attempting to recover their gold, but none could
safely get into the tree, until the day a postman appeared with a sackful of
yellow 1x1 round plates...
Once the monkey was suitably drugged, and swinging from the branches, postie
was able to get away with all the treasure before summoning an ambulance to
recover the wounded.
I know, not at all castle, but Tesco's didn't have any on special ;(

Vigil.
Praying and lashing themselves with chains. They're all very devout. :-)

Make that lashing eah other with chains and it's more like it. Not to
mention all those whips lego supplies us with. Dungeon fun!

well, my castle scenarios have lots of women & babes (about four guys to every
girl) but about half of these chicks are lesbians, so the men are still pretty
restless at night.(could be fun <snicker>) visitors to my site know what kind
of havok WENDY the wolfpack babe brought to wp tower when she moved in, so
maybe a bunch of honeys running around isn't such a good idea.
and i don't know about the rest of the castle crowd, but that dark forest boy
with the pageboy hair... definitely gay.

You know...this is somehow becoming even more bizarre than discussing the sex
lives of cartoon characters. And that takes doing... I'm sorry, I just can't
picture those lil' yellow guys doing the nasty. It's just plain wrong.

Craig, you silly goose...the dark forest 'boy' is really a maiden in disguise.
Her father, a minor Baron, died and upon taking up his father's titles, her
ambitious and greedy brother arranged for her to marry a wealthy and lecherous
Marquis. But the strong-willed girl wasn't going to stand for such a thing, so
on the eve of her wedding day, she disguised herself as a page and escaped into
the forest where she joined the Dark Forest bandits. It's taken a lot of
cunning to preserve her disguise, but so far, the bandits haven't found out.
(Their leader harbors some suspicions - he was a good friend of the girls'
father before he was exiled, and he feels strongly paternal to the girl now and
tries to keep her out of trouble.)

Not to mention the fact that none of the minifigs have any equipment anyway.

Don't forget the Dark Forest girl with the bangs, the princess from the
Mountain Fortress, the maiden from the Maiden's Cart - and do you *really* know
what gender a classic smiley is? Maybe there's long, flowing hair bound up
under the helmets of the Black Falcons...hmm...an elite unit of warrior
women...
But there are lots of witches. Lots and lots of them. I have them coming out
my ears. Maybe the lack of other women is due to a curse from the witches, who
were all upset because they weren't getting any dates on Friday nights. (It's
that one tooth thing, I think). So they made most of the women disappear. But
they still don't get any dates. It's kind of sad, really.
Or maybe the classic-smiley faces are actually hermaphroditic minifigs, who can
take on the role of either gender with the switch fo a wig! There are fish and
frogs who can switch gender based on imbalances in the population...maybe
minifigs are the same?
