When I had to drop Aya, I was gonna replace her with Tea, who is basically a tech-tank-blaster (who I would've weakened) except for two things. 1: The story I built her around required Aya. While I could've changed it, it would've felt like taking away a piece of the character. And 2: I missed RPing with Steve. Besides, I wanted a character WITHOUT a traumatic past that left them psychologically scarred... even though Steve does have a myriad of psychological issues, they're all defense mechanisms to deal with his aggression (Denial, Regression, Reactive Formation, Projection, and Rationalization... even though no one probably cares), as opposed to a straight up mood disorder/dissociation.
