The main reason I want to avoid as many canon characters in the FC as possible is because we've done re-enactments in the past with only canon characters, and it... didn't go well. I'm sure you remember that. And if we focus more on fanon characters, people will be more invested in working on this since we'll have even more free reign with personalities, powers, and likewise. I only wanted to save those four Captains because they are game changers that can serve us quite nicely, but all the other characters may have nice aspects to them, but I find it better to keep the canon character count as minimal as possible.

And I'm glad to hear you'll be joining :D You'll make a fantastic addition
