Yo! I'm feelin' the itch again and figured I might poll some interest for new characters. This time around, I'd also like to encourage people to suggest characters that aren't on the poll. If you've seen my other like, 8 interest polls you know I have a habit of just doing what I think will be fun regardless of the votes it gets. So if you suggest something I really like, I might just go with it! Also, don't be afraid to actually post telling me your feelings. I'm gauging interest right now, after all. 

Some info on me, for those of us who don't know me super well and might need to know a little to suggest someone.

I like to give my characters diversity of combat methods and personality.
I'm a big fan of magical girls in their many forms, as well as girl power.
I'm a large ham and a large dork. I like playing on absurdism and quirky personalities for humor.
I have been told that passion is the strong point of my writing.

And here's a list of characters I already play, plus an extremely short description of their niche:

• Princess Peach [Mario] (Regal Princess / Loves Everyone / Love Magic Master / Lethal Joke Character / Mom)
• Arle [Madou Monogatari/Puyo Puyo] (Classic Mage / Schoolgirl / Down to earth / Paladin)
• Ashe [Mega Man] (Dork / Archaeologist / Ace Sharpshooter / Bounty hunter / Form Stealer)
• Iris [Pokemon] (Adores fighting and competition / Dragon Obsessed / Faux Princess / Ham)
• Blue [Pokemon] (Flirt / Femme Fatale / Morally Ambiguous Trickster / Espionage)
• Ciel [Mega Man] (Super Genius / Dork / Scientist / Super Supportive / Mom)
• Raffina [Puyo Puyo] (Magical Brawler / Proper Lady / Short Temper / Morally Ambiguous / Schoolgirl)
• Doppelganger Arle [Puyo Puyo] (Classic Dark Mage / Mentally Unwell & Unstable / Slightly psychotic / Recovery Arc)
• Zelda [Twilight Princess] (Magical Swordswoman / Severe Depression / Quiet and moody / Extremely wise)
• Valorie [OC] (Everything is edible if you're brave enough / Dork / Love Magic Student / Morally Ambiguous Megalomaniac)
• Doppelganger Amitie [OC] (An illusion given consciousness and seemingly free will / false memories / struggling to be human)
• Black & White [Pokemon] (Duo Trainer / Truth vs Ideals / Actors)

Now, here are the characters I'm considering:

	Amy Rose! I've played her before and I hear my Amy's pretty good. I keep finding myself somewhat pulled back to her after dropping her. She's got a big heart, she idolizes heroes, she goes fast and she smacks people with a hammer. She was briefly the first stadium champ.
	Bowser is big. STRONK. On the dumber sides of things, vindictive, and has a problem with kidnapping. My Bowser would mostly exist to be a terrifying brute. I'd also probably have him kidnap girls with magical powers for reasons(TM) and do small time villain stuff. On the flip side, he leads what is essentially the life sphere ghetto and struggles to take care of his people.
	Kodomo Dragon! A mouthy brat who rides a dragon-lizard and speaks like a caveman. He is an ignorant jerk and a bully despite his small size. The big difference between him and Bowser is that he's dumber, mouthier, more chauvinistic and easier to beat up. He would be a very disruptive joke character that mostly serves to fight with people and be the butt of jokes.
	Lillie! A novice trainer with a good heart. A little on the weak side, both combat wise and in terms of spiritual strength. But she has room to grow. Her gimmick would be being reserved and open-ended in growth.
	Lyndis! The nomadic warrior of the plains. I'unno. She's always a character I had a fondness for and she's from back when I could actually sit through an entire fire emblem game. Her gimmick would be waking up from a coma and probably struggling with her near death experience and a bit of loneliness.
	Lip from Panel De Pon! She's a flower fairy with a strong sense of justice. A cute that is definitely afraid to fight with the bigger heroes but will do it anyway.

Lillie. Because... well. It's Lillie. And I honestly think out of the dozens of people I've roleplayed with in the last few years, you're one of the only people I think could get her right.

Also Lyn because playing a traumatic character with a strong foundation like Lyn would be an interesting RP situation and I'd love to see that expanded on.

[Coolshaymin]

I did love your Amy and since I play Cream again, she desires to see her return safely too.

Lillie is an excellent character I really desire to see on Li in a good amount... Also my Inner Moon too.

Lyndis is a cool character and you don't really have many... if any true sword fighters and I'd think it would be cool having a continuation of the previous end of her arc.

Lip is... such an obscure charcter I mostly want to see them used just for that.

Bowser and Komodo Dragon would be neat but did not vote for them since I think the others better fit your style and theme.

Bowser I chose because Dad Bowser is the best thing and I'd love to get more of that between him and Jr. Bowser might be a bit of a change in pace for you but maybe that's a good thing

Lillie I chose because....well, Lillie, and I think that it would be a good fit for you

Well I agree that you’ve got Amy’s personality and spirit down. The way Sonic is on Li, this was never an environment that an authentic Amy could thrive in, but you managed to make her work somehow. But if you give serious consideration to aping her again, you need to ask yourself: You dropped her before, What’s going to stop you from dropping her all over again? If you can find the answer, then by all means, go for it!

It would be fascinating to see of your tastes play a macho character like Bowser. But like if you’re going to commit to playing Bowser here, there’s going to need to be more to him than just being the terrifying brute. I mean of course that’s necessary, but he’s got two sons he’s gotta play Dad Bowser to too. But on that note, seeing what you’ve done with Peach and the Magical Girl Society, you have what it takes to really bring the Life Sphere Ghetto to life as something memorable and finally give us all who apped a villain something canon to unite around to beyond bumming around as NPC bosses of threads their players GM. Apping Bowser’s the choice that comes with the most responsibilities, I think.

I’ve been reading your writing for just about 6 years now, and given your tastes and writing style, a lot of things I sense you’re going to wind up doing with Bowser, you’d could be doing way more in-character as Komodo. For all you’ve done for NPCs like him, playing a character like him as a PC is something I’ve never seen you try before. Just from what I’ve seen you do as him in the baseball threads was hilarious. Exploring this sense of humour of yours might wind up being quite funny and maybe even cathartic. I vote for him because it’s an experiment that’s worth trying no matter the result for sake of the curiosity alone.

Lillie is a character that sits just on the other side of the spectrum from Kodomo. She’s a character we Know you can play very well. From her fashion sense, her fragile girliness, the way looks after Nebby, her mommy issues and the strength she finds in her friendship with Selene. She’s got you written all over her. The MGS is what she was missing in her life in Pokemon Sun/Moon. We love Lillie, our characters would love to meet Lillie. She’s all around the “safest” choice for a successful app on this list.

There’s nothing I know about Fire Emblem that I didn’t learn from Smash and from Li, so I’d look forward to learning about Lyndis if you apped her.
Lip is an obscure character deserves the justice I tried to do the Ice Climbers when I apped them. If there was anyone I would trust to breathe life into this flower fairy a life and give her a chance to be made memorable, it would be someone with your resume.

I voted Amy because more Sonic characters. And Amy is at least kind of significant to Shadow, so I had to vote for Amy.

[PSYCH]

Voted Bowser because y’know, Daddy (and you’ve picked him up already so yay), but I’d also like to see your Amy Rose again so I gave her a vote too.
