Okay, I kinda get what you're saying. Still. I made a mistake. When I think of creating a second character, I treat them the same as my first character. When I think of secondary characters, I think of (for example in this RP) Wolverine and Prof. X. Yes, they are controlled by someone (the GM) but they don't have a CS and they may be crucial to the plot, but they only occasionally show up. Then they go away. Then maybe show up again. I wasn't thinking. So I will just scrub Tea completely and instead use Leon (my Tiger-man). Tea's too integrated into Aya's past, but Leon has no such attachments and is easier to use as a secondary character.
