I haven't played WoW too much (I only tried it for like 2 weeks) so I don't understand the WoW references, but I agree with the part about the scions. Some of them are annoying, and some of them are just... there. I don't feel like any of them really have a particular goal right now other than Yshtola, and I have several other problems with that character.

I've mainly taken a stance of neutrality on the OP of this thread (and before anyone says otherwise, you can go back and see that I've made that clear multiple times), but I do agree that it's quite troubling that some would like to label such desires for conventionally attractive characters as 'troubling'. Personally, I'm into conventionally attractive women, and no disrespect to anyone who doesn't fall under this category, but if you're not conventionally attractive, I'm probably not going to find you appealing to look at. Now imagine if someone made a thread asking for more overweight characters and I came into the thread complaining that someone was asking for the type of character they liked. I don't think I'd get the same support.
