A Pre-Battle Recap: Just where the heck is everybody?

It's Fight O'Clock. Do you know where your characters are?

So, we're just gonna get into a big complicated battle. Our heroes have split into multiple groups to fight multiple opponents in multiple places, and with the time-stop removed, a whole new gaggle of characters are going to reappear right smack in the middle. So, as a reference, let's take stock of where everyone is, before they have the chance to run off and go somewhere else.

Some of this is sheer guesswork. And, as always, if someone does not appear on this, or is placed in the wrong location, understand that I did it on purpose, as I thrill in the suffering of others. Mea culpa.

If it hasn't become obvious, I enjoy lists.
