Yes. And Ion from tales of the abyss.
I'm biased for Elise since I know her better than Ion
and I've been procrastinating on my Abyss game oops
Buuuut go for whoever you feel the most inspiration/ideas for
That's my biggest problem. They're about even in the ideas department.
Picking muses based on that makes it easier to plot with and tag, imo
Shinki. In both cases. Elise has the bonus of castmates, which are always nice.
I'm voting Elise if we're voting here o/
Mostly because Sora's adopted into the Nohr family by default and I'm super biased because of that
Ion has the benefit of being really different from the other character I play there already. So there'd be no overlap. Also his app is mostly done.
Elise would be coming in off of her Birthright death, so that'd be pleasant.
Not that Ion's death is cheerful.
using canon deaths is beautiful
It's so much easier than trying to make one up.

that's what I said
You can only app one per cycle though.
Ion would have at least one castmate if the Jade apped.
which would have more potential in-game setting?
seguecop: I don't know. I've been going over in my head but I'm still not sure.
They keep coming up about even.
which would have more trouble with their current situation, giving them a longer arc and more to explore?
Hmm, I hadn't thought about it that way...
Yeah. Outside of ideas, I like going into games with new characters if I have an idea for their character arc
Something to aim for between events
That's a good idea. I'm gonna think on that for a while.
Okay, I'm going with Elise.
I might still app Ion in the next round though.
But Elise seems like she'd have more to do right away.
I think she'll be a lot of fun. I almost hope she gets paired with a god who will be really annoyed by her bouncy personality.
