Fair enough on new characters. The younglings from WAY back in Act 1 are all either dead or went their separate ways across the galaxy, so yeah, new characters from the student body would be nice. I'm struggling on whether to pair Yerbol with a male or female apprentice, the latter being a touch more intriguing to me due to his relationship with Lysa and how that might influence the way he sees her...or that could translate over to a male as well. 

I'll figure it out and get you a post ASAP
