holy smokes you guys, it’s only december 26, and yet everyone has already found their partners! this means i can open up NPC picking a bit early. the teams and their tier scores so far are as follows:
annalise / @dracaelum-faerie + tobias / @drkvoids = 8.5
hop / @no-more-royalty + aesen / @welcome-to-our-domain = 12
lisia / @beehyve + hilda / @unovavalkyrie = 5
will / @psychic-master-will + malva / @fatal-fleur = 8
steven / @ringsreachingout and diantha / @diamontha = 10
may / @horizonboundtrainer and wes / @orresnatcher = 8
paul / @talkaboutpathetic and ash / @kidfrompallet = 11.5
ball guy / @ballguysays and fabien / @imbicilite = 1.5
NPCs will be available to be picked at 4:00 PM PST SATURDAY. this is to give the new pairs a fair chance at deciding what NPCs they will have before the battle; please list a first and second choice in case someone else decides to pick your NPC first. since this is on a first-come first-serve basis, please also send me your requests through the askbox of this blog so i can readily tell who sent what first. any messages before that time about what NPC you and your teammate wish to choose OR any messages sent to me in IMs or over discord about which NPC you choose will be ignored.
two more things in this post. one, check out some of the changes to the NPCs i made. i gave some of them sync move effects (though not all of them), so if this affects your decision you now have some time to reevaluate. and two, when picking an NPC, personality is a factor that i would love to see being played out in the battles themselves. some NPCs might afford a tactical advantage in terms of moves but be incompatible in terms of personality……others may be the opposite. be honest with yourself about how your muses and the NPCs would interact--any ensuing drama or difficulty would be part of the fun! >:3
