    I must admit whilst I was a little unsure about seeing him so soon after EW in 6.1, this recent patch made me really glad he was around. His a great straight man, both in regards to humour but more importantly explaining lore stuff. He very much feels like the ‘buddy/best friend’ to the WoL now. I admit, as someone who played Dragoon in ARR I do have a soft spot for the fact this one-off job ‘villain’ became a major MSQ character.

    Like I know he joined us, but I feel more-so as a Collaborator, or just someone who is officially joining our fight as a Mutual/Lending us aid.
    Likely I forgot, but I dont think he Joined the Organization/the Group and identifies as a Joined Member of The Scions of the Seventh Dawn

    All I know is I hope we get our next party member in 6.2 and I don't want them to be another scion. We need new characters, not immortal ones that stick around forever. Bonus points if we somehow manage to get rid of Y'shtola before 7.0 and get a better postergirl than her.

    I'll be waiting.

    When we do get new characters, I hope they are well written and not just a Checklist character to cater to some old school cast.
    Im more interested in that then some random Charming Thief.

    Fordola would be more interesting then some Balthier or Locke clone archetype. Or some revival of old Thancred.

    Agreed. Nostalgia can be a powerful tool, but it can also flood and dilute what makes the game great if they are not careful.

    I like the Scions because they've been around for a long time and I've seen them develop and shared experiences with them.

    We can get additional characters to drive immediate plots and maybe even join us in the long run, but the Scions are my character's dependable friends and I'm happy for them to stay that way.

    I think that Zero is a decent enough substitute for Fordola. They're similar enough, just with different color palettes. We need better written and attractive men in this cast. At this point adding Fordola to the cast would contribute little if anything.

    The male characters in this game have been extremely lacking lately, gone are the days of Ardbert, Hien, etc and now all we're left with is...Estinien and Vrtra. Neither of which are exactly impressive, with Estinien's ponytail and Vrtra's face looking way too young.

    I think I'll link this thread for inspiration.

    Per the supplementary short stories and word of god, Estinien is/has always been lazy when it comes to taking care of his hair. Its 1000% in character that his solution to being hot but not wanting to take off his armor was to simply pull it up off his neck lol
