Awesome! And yeah, I think the taming could be some kind of animal that they either pick or, later, tame themselves. Maybe. I don't know, heeheh. As far as the riders go, I think that we could use some kind of bike like this:

But it would be somewhat customizable, like they could shift the colours and upgrade it and the like with the right skill or money to have somebody else do it.

I don't see anything wrong with having the Mechanic myself, really I have no preference at all, so if you just wanna do the fantasy side, feel free. Feel free to take whichever you like. ^_^ I'm a little more interested in how far along we think they should be in the game when they meet - high-level, mid-level, or complete newbies? And how long has the game been out? Are they veterans of the game, or, again, newbies?

These are things we can keep discussing as we go too, once we get our characters out.
