I have a small question that I wouldn't mind throwing here. Mostly because both alternatives are fine, and for all that I am not opening a vote, I would be intrigued to see yall's opinion on it.
Currently, the distribution of actions looks something like this:
The only two actions I haven't locked in who should perform are the two AotL and the prisoner picking.
Pretend for a moment that there is no dice roll involved, and that the chosen character will succeed. Do you all think Velvet would ask Axe to do it, or Comet?
Or rather, which one could make for a more interesting scene?
To be clear, there will be a dice roll involved. And Axe has better stats to do it. But I can't help but wonder if it would be more interesting for the Comet x Velvet dynamic if she asked him instead.
I'll probably have Axe do it. But the fact I am thinking about it does make me wonder...
