Characters in Minneapolis, somewhat flexible (6)
I believe the answer is:
lissom
'flexible' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'characters in minneapolis somewhat' is the wordplay.
'characters in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'LISSOM' is hidden within 'minneapolis somewhat'.
(Other definitions for lissom that I've seen before include "'Lithe, supple (6)'" , "Lithe, nimble" , "Supple or agile" , "Lithe and flexible" , "Agile and lithe" .)
