Basically, the only cavet I would make about that is that characters who dualclass into something with a different focus can be strong in a role he/she wasn't good at before. However, their effectiveness should not be as effective as someone who has the same class but more levels in it.

Yes. This is what I mean. Sure, people should get a few different specializations, get good at lots of things! But if Pierce got one or two abilities, and suddenly he was as good a supporter as Renny is, then Pierce's new abilities would have to be reevaluated.

Also, we should keep in mind that we should not insist that specialization should be unique, but is ultimately up to the player. Just because Impact and Pierce and Charlotte are leaning toward a certain level of aggressive skills doesn't mean that Renny should be strong-armed into only getting medic related skills just because most of his moves are like that. However the skills should be guided by having a certain pre-resequite classes or its basic power is not arrogantly competing with others, especially those who specialize in that field. Anyhow, redundant specialities can be useful if someone get knocked out or seperated or run out of rage or other such things.

Not sure what you're saying here. If it's just that several characters can (and even should) specialize in the same thing, with similar methods, then you have my full agreement. Though, like I said above, I also agree that, when one character spends a lot of time specializing, then any other characters should have to put in equal time and effort before they get as good as them in that aspect.
Yes, of course RennyxLola remains under my (and Drac's) personal protection. I doubt Matt would try to seduce her away from you, and if Bard made Charlotte try, it'd totally be worth compensating you. ^^

The other reason is basically that I want something minimally cool too as a token of good faith. :3
I'm not happy because Charlotte gets to be leader as part of the agreement as well as gradually being promised promotion to what could very well be supreme command of THE brute squad of the sequel when/if Impact goes for world domination, Pierce gets out of the favor he owe Impact AND promised to be the next leader after Charlotte initial leadership run. Matt and I on the other hand get nothing offered to us for the purpose of the deal while still being told to hope that the deal would ultimately be for the good of us all!

You say you ask for a 'token of good faith'. You say you are not yet satisfied with my motives.
That is a lie.
Greed, Menarker. Greed is what drives you. Not two pages ago, you tell me:

I'll however more or less hold to the agreement. I wasn't in total disagreement as more on concerned on the "fine print" that one player (You) would be more or less deciding the standards of power of techniques.

You seemed... satisfied. You will benefit from Impact no longer leading, from no longer being bound to him, and you know that. Yet, now you tell me that this is not enough. That you want more.
What you ask for is not a token of good faith, Menarker. It is a bribe.
I compromised with Dracorion, because he took his position to begin with, he stood by it. I respect that. He defended his interests consistently. I still think it was a mistake to negotiate with him in the manner that I did. It is a mistake I will not make again.
I will certainly not make the mistake of compromising with you now. Agree to the deal, and I will forget that you made this request and show you... goodwill next time we negotiate. Considering that we will have to negotiate the exact guidelines soon, you will 4LMOST C3RT41NLY B3N3F1T FROM TH1S!

Also, AB, I think I hate you now. Why is Misty even under the table? Is that... a vido camera? Oh lord.
Also, also I'm back, bitches. Posting a plan within the next 5 hours.
