@Raddum well if your fine starting in a similar position beacuse the first dungeon is for the most part staying similar but it will go more it's own direction as we progress but being an AU Kamoshida seems like a good start and Goro should be the only party member character that really does anything in this story due to having the same antagonist unless someone wants to take over Goro's role im open to changes.
Also that said going to be more like teddie and just not go to the real world often or going to just turn into a normal fox when in the real world?
