Alright, balance/design pass is done. Should give people some more options, hopefully I didn't make any mistakes anywhere since I'm a bit tired. If you've got any questions just say so here.
Edit: Also, letters are done (at least until/if I get a response from DDR).

Dark_Hunter-Angelic_Tears it's definitely possible to get the Froslass into your team if she actually wants it. There's nothing stopping that from happening--she has something over Nyx's head and what's he going to do, try to murder a potential recruit in front of Neo? On the character herself though I don't really feel very strongly about her. A lot of the mission had substance to a certain extent but there wasn't a lot really shown of the characters. Part of this is symptomatic of Nyx just being a huge a*****e, part of this is a result of the Froslass's more passive nature (or at least actions). If she has an interesting personality beyond that then, sure, otherwise from where I'm sitting she doesn't seem like a terribly interesting addition to the team. If you want somebody to just mess with Nyx a bit, then Lux would do that job fine unless you specifically want somebody to be a little more mean-spirited about it. I can't see her interactions really drawing much out of the team like the rest would, at least based on what I've been shown. If you just want her to "know things" and mess with Nyx, you could just as easily leave her where she is (since I think you plan to make her reoccuring) as having her pop up from time-to-time would enhance the nature of the character. It really depends on how much she's hiding behind the demure presentation she gave Nyx. If there's something substantial behind her that can either stand independently or as a part of the team then sure. Otherwise, just leave her where she is and continue to use her to mess with Nyx for giggles.

Cysic X Since you asked it's definitely possible to get the Froslass into your team if she actually wants it. There's nothing stopping that from happening--she has something over Nyx's head and what's he going to do, try to murder a potential recruit in front of Neo? On the character herself though I don't really feel very strongly about her. A lot of the mission had substance to a certain extent but there wasn't a lot really shown of the characters.

If there's something substantial behind her that can either stand independently or as a part of the team then sure. Otherwise, just leave her where she is and continue to use her to mess with Nyx for giggles. Yeah, that's about the sort of thing I was thinking. The trouble with Nyx is he's not the type to have any sort of meaningful interaction with a person, particularly when he's in as terrible of a mood as he was through that mission. Combine it with the fact that the Froslass is deliberately being distant because when she tried to be straight with Nyx he threatened to incinerate her, and you get for a very surface-level view of a character. Fortunately it's not all bad, seeing as her primary purposes here were to keep Nyx from getting killed and to reveal a bit more about his peculiar past, but that's probably the thing that makes it difficult to form any sort of opinion on her. That being said, since we're still in the early stages of that particular arc, her constant presence would probably be a bit premature, especially since she wouldn't be able to act like herself with Nyx around at all times (she's typically not aloof and irksome, unless you're not fond of her particular set of interests). At any rate, her personality is "there" and "interesting" but I definitely agree that she doesn't seem like she'd add anything of particular note to the Team at this point in time. How she'll function in the future I'm not sure, except to the extent of shedding light on particular details of Nyx's story, but I think she's probably best outside of the Team itself for now. A part of it also is that I just needed to hear that from someone else--it's very difficult for me to break my trend of always taking a recruit, no matter what.

Fortunately it's not all bad, seeing as her primary purposes here were to keep Nyx from getting killed and to reveal a bit more about his peculiar past, but that's probably the thing that makes it difficult to form any sort of opinion on her. Yeah, this is the body of the problem for me in giving a meaningful opinion. In the mission she was aloof, distant, at most a little bit playful. I don't know anything about the character, her limited set of interactions prevents her from displaying a real personality and that makes it super hard for me to give a valid opinion. If her core personality is very different to her displayed personality then there might be some value in putting her in the team but at the moment it looks like she would just be stuck on the exterior edge of every team interaction. In a different team that might work but I'm not sure it would work with Essence. Dark_Hunter-Angelic_Tears That being said, since we're still in the early stages of that particular arc, her constant presence would probably be a bit premature, especially since she wouldn't be able to act like herself with Nyx around at all times (she's typically not aloof and irksome, unless you're not fond of her particular set of interests).

How she'll function in the future I'm not sure, except to the extent of shedding light on particular details of Nyx's story, but I think she's probably best outside of the Team itself for now. I'm sure she does, I just obviously can't see it (it hasn't been displayed or implied) so I can't really suggest much there. In the end what I'm saying is that "From my position, I don't see her being a good choice. Your position is different and it may change your opinion." Of course, it doesn't necessarily do so--so leaving her out in the cold (guffaw) might still seem the ideal choice. Dark_Hunter-Angelic_Tears A part of it also is that I just needed to hear that from someone else--it's very difficult for me to break my trend of always taking a recruit, no matter what. That's what the alternate systems are for. o 3o

Auras are up everyone! I've tagged those you whose characters I'm lacking auras for in this post (at least those of you who participated in the last chapter), and if you could get those to me I'd be glad to put your teams and characters up on the list as well!

*dances in with an awkward limp*
Heeeeyyyyyyyy! I've been missing for a few days, sorry. Hehe. I kind of, sorta, maybe, actually got hit by a car. While on my motorcycle. I'm fine and should be posting again soon... I was just.... Excited to have a legitimate excuse this time?

1) Every excuse you've given has been legitimate, in case there was any doubt; please don't feel like you have to get hit by a car in order to justify being away. xD 2) I hope you're doing alright. Please take whatever time you need to recover, getting hit by a car on a motorcycle is an intense thing.

I'm glad you're okay, but I'm still a little worried. Take care of yourself, and take the time you need, okay?
I agree with Darky- it's okay to have real life get in the way of being in an internet RP. We understand.

Ugh, sorry! I thought I had dropped a thing here about going to California last week, but apparently I didn't. I'll write up my recruitment post from chapter 3 sometime this weekend and I'll look at the auras now.

It's all good, as long as you're stickin' around. I also really need to do those auras, I really do

It's quite alright. We're just glad to still have you with us! Do your auras.But also I wanted to let you know I'll probably put off the Erinn/Serrin RP until after next chapter since it's not necessary to Erinn's personal development before then (but we can put it before or after that chronologically speaking whichever you like), so that I can go ahead and do Killian's (the Golurk's) RP which will be relevant before then.

Mostly I'm just contemplating colours. For some characters, this is very easy. For others, this is very hard. Also that's fine. It's a little disappointing (I was looking forward to it) but it's fine. Killian's stuff takes precedence in terms of "well it needs to be done for PLOT" which is alright. You always take care of the important stuff first, etc.
