I'm glad that everyone is being so civil about all of this, makes my life easier, as well as everyone's life too. So, we have good cases for both sides, and if doesn't trouble either party involved, I would like to see concepts for second characters. They don't have to be fully fleshed out, just a bare bones idea of what the character is and does as a hero. Enough to give us an idea of how they'd work in this RP. However if you don't want to shard, that's fine. I want to try and keep a calm environment without forcing anyone to do anything as long as it doesn't conflict with the rules previously established.
