Hi, everyone! I'm Vurgles, and it's time for a roster update! I have 10 newcomers to confirm for you. I have a few more I'm considering, but I don't want to confirm in case any better ideas come along. But first, I'd like to make some changes to the returning characters. In particular, I'm replacing Samus and Zelda. Both are too... over-used for these stories. Instead, I'll be using Amy Rose from Sonic and Marinette from Miraculous Ladybug. This also means you're free to suggest other Metroid and Legend of Zelda characters if you want to.

As for the newcomers,

Becky (Nefarious)
Reg (Made in Abyss)
Aisley (Secret of Kells)
Squidward (Spongebob Squarepants)
Engineer (Team Fortress 2)
Susie (Kirby: Planet Robobot)
El Tigre (El Tigre)
Madeline (Celeste)
Bender (Futurama)
Mina Ashido (My Hero Academia)

This leaves 6 characters left to decide. 3 male spots and 3 female spots. I might add a couple spots if I really want some of the characters here, but I don't want t make any promises.

Also, I think I'll be using a World Tour theme for my story, but with fictional worlds instead of real cities. For example, they may go to the world of Pop Star for a Kirby challenge, or the Dragon Ball universe for a DBZ themed challenge. If you have more challenge ideas, let me know and I'll see if I can use them.

That's all I have for now, I hope to see you soon!
