Someone sell me on one of the last four characters, I want to keep saving but I barely have an opinion on any of them and I like this idea more than picking a number out of red mage's hat.

Lightning redemption project.

She wasn't my character last year, or near the top of my favourites, but I believe in justice. She would have and should have won last year but was eliminated due to a lawyering, a really bad lawyering. The unfairness of what went down really stuck with me; her winning this year would correct that grievous wrong.

Nobody "deserves" to win but this is about as close of a case of "deserves" as I can think of, and I still hope she can do it.

Depending how you feel about her I figure there's three buckets:

-If you like Lightning: great, welcome aboard

-If you're neutral or indifferent to Lightning: a save for Lightning is a save for justice, and redeeming what happened last year (for the character, and for swordz, her loyal backer who's had to put up with so much and who has also been in an alliance with Red Mage up to this point)

-If you hate Lightning: if she wins, swordz will abandon her to main Squall (implied in a previous post). There really isn't anyone else who'll pick up the mantle for her, so poor performances should be a regular occurrence. Your current displeasure at her win will be outweighed by a bounty of schadenfreude in future years... it would be worth it.
