I don't understand the question. Are you asking if player 2 can dodge player one's attack? If so unless there are circumstances limiting player 2 they certainly can dodge.
It depends I suppose on how we want the story to develop. We can settle on central characters and focus on their story. I will use Skume and an additional cast depending on the story.
I was thinking we can blend your character history with the Dreamers and create a series of stories that delve into the backgrounds and further characters involved.
