A Few Character/Other Types of Questions (Patreon)

Hello all. Tis the 9th of April and I am about a fourth of the way through ATP, but more importantly (at least in conjunction with this post), Making Waves is also finished and off to my first MW beta reader. As such, I thought this an appropriate time to pose a few questions once more. Only one or two of these are really important questions, they are mostly opinion questions or requests for help in slotting correct character A into plot concept B, with a smattering of questions about minor plot points.  But I would appreciate your opinions on them regardless. 

First I suppose should be the two questions I have about Patreon.:

1. I have been reading the little exit survey lines for several months now, and while I can’t do anything about the two most major reasons (never intended to stay, financial situation changed) people give for leaving, one caught my eye: I am unsatisfied with the patreon services. So I am asking if any of you can think of ways that I could be using this page better than I am.

2. Secondly, I was wondering if people would like to see me go back to the two stories on fanfic two stories on here format? Specifically with MW and Bhaalson Remodel or perhaps my Sword, Bow and Horse. I have to admit I would really like to play around with Tonks and Harry getting to know one another, and then heading out into the world of BW, and I would rather like to show Ranma the-no-longer-a-virgin LOL.  And MW, well we’re about to get into some of the more interesting stuff, with the whole Edolas arc coming up while my world building continues in the background. Or, would people like to keep the current format of only one patreon work a month, but put it up for a separate vote? That is, a vote only for the patreon only work every month. {note, I would reserve the right to end such during multi-chapter arcs, regardless of the story in question – cliffhangers are evil and should not be left to hang for too long}

Now on to specific questions.

SW questions: 

1. I am looking for two Male Jedi masters to add to the younglings when they are shipped into the Ruusan temple to offset Fay and Lily – yes the Jedi would see it like that. I would like one human, one nonhuman. I have an idea for one of them, the short looking, very elderly alien master who was an expert on the criminal underworld, but I can’t remember his name. 

2. Given his importance to canon, despite how I’ve utterly sidelined him in this fic, do I need to show what Anakin’s been up to, and how he’s grown in the next chapter of Horse?

3. This is for both fics really. I would like to know the name of some Clone Wars era Confederate admirals, I know only two beyond Grevious. These would be throw away disposable characters just so you know LOL. Competence is not a necessary talent here LOL.

FILFY questions (questions for GDHWOM will start to matter after the next chapter):

1. I’d like everyone’s opinions on Le Fay and Arthur as characters. I have plans for them long term, I am just wondering what people think about them, and if they enjoy them as I’ve portrayed them. And were any of their other family members ever introduced in canon?

2. Ophis. Is she an evil dragon woman who simply believes her ends justify all means making her a villain, or a spoiled little girl who needs to learn other people matter? I personally can’t really make up my mind.

3. After Yasaka who, among the ladies already showing interest, should be the next to jump on the Staff of Potter? At this point, it is just a matter of deciding which would be the next, and if that would cause the remaining any angst, a question I’m struggling with.

ATP: easily the most important of the questions here in terms of plot this is a really long term question, as in three chapters down the line. But it’s one that came to me recently:

1. Apocalypse. Is he obsessed enough about proving mutants are stronger than humanity that he would ignore the threats from space and the fact humanity is slowing drawing together against them? Or… should I do something that no one else has ever done, and bring him in as more of an anti-hero, like Doom and have him see this new threat as the real war of survival of the fittest?

Making Waves questions:

1. What should happen to Anna (Edolas Lisanna) during the Edolas arc? Should break up with Natsu and go back to her siblings and guild, or stay with Natsu and break their hearts? Or should all three just never get the chance to join the arc at all so she’s never tempted?

2. This is for fans of the canon: The Wizard Saints. Are they really the chumps I remember from watching Hyperion or whatever his name was school them, or should I show them as being strong before that moment? 

3. Are Natsu and Gray interesting enough characters that I need to show their growth in the future after Ranma returns from his latest trip?

So yeah, simple questions this time around, nothing major to really argue for or against. But again, I would just like everyone’s opinions and help to figure out these questions.
