Consider me interested. The only Final Fantasy game I've played is Type 0, so forgive me if some of the conventions are lost on me.
Inquiry time! Firstly, considering we're operating under the assumption our characters are already acquainted, are you encouraging us to collaborate while creating them?
Secondly, are there any restrictions you want to impose in terms of character design or capabilities? (Preferences, maybe? Like, is there anything in particular you'd like to see? Anything you'd rather we avoid?)
