Ranking all 90 characters in the AA popularity poll by if they deserve to win.

Board 8

70. Aura Blackquill

Is this one a hot take? I dunno. She gets points for having a cool design and being a semi-important character, but nothing else about her really inspires much more than a half-hearted shrug from me. Out of all the characters who are kinda important in this trilogy she just seems like she wouldn't be a very interesting one to revisit. Like, an illustration of her would be totally fine, but it's wasted potential imo.

69. Amara Sigatar Khura'in

I really can't even fathom why she's on this list. (6-5 spoilers) I mean, if we're avoiding spoiler characters, her very presence on this list is pretty much a spoiler, and it would just be strange to give her any kind of art considering this. She's a fine character who has plenty of art potential but she's getting docked major points for this issue. At least we could get some kind of confirmation that she's even fucking alive. Yeah I know she's in the credits roll but come on.

68. Myriam Scuttlebutt

Haha, sure, why not Myriam Scuttlebutt? You only see her outside of her box for a second in the game, and honest to god I don't know if I've ever seen any key art of her at all, so this is kind of a funny option. You could do worse.

67. Little Plum (Plum Kitaki)

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/059f7470.png

I think we're all sleeping on Plum Kitaki just a little bit. You see the way she draws her sword on you with that threatening look? Plum definitely knows how to handle a weapon and she's almost certainly some kind of actual badass. There's potential here! Yeah, yeah, she's a totally nothing side character but she's not the worst totally nothing side character you could pick.

66. Puhray Zeh'lot

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/9/9a8b4662.png

So like, here's the thing about this guy, right? He's apparently a member of Inga's secret police and he's like actually some kind of badass assassin who dresses up as Lady Keera and kills people? Puhray Zeh'lot... maybe kind of actually rules? Yeah yeah he's a goon working for an evil government but I stan a cool crossdressing assassin and we don't get to see much of him so you know, hey! By the way, everyone's talking about Gumshoe being missing and stuff but why is the poll so inconsistent as far as which victims were included? We got this guy and some other victims who never appear or say a line but some other random fuckos are missing, like Candice Arme, Paht Rohl, Archie Buff, etc. Not that any of them matter, it's just weird and it bothers me.
