Malleable protagonists are welcome. They must be as close to the default version of that character as possible visually and personality-wise, if such a representation exists. There is a limit of one per each malleable protagonist. Canon characters are not required to recognize a malleable protagonist as "the" protagonist they're familiar with.



In regards to malleable protagonists, what is the game's stance on protagonists that are either a blank slate or a semi-blank slate such as Warriors of Light from FFXIV or Tav/Durge from Baldur's Gate 3? Are these characters also appable?
Short version: yes, all those examples are appable! For both Tav and the Dark Urge of BG3, they're naturally a bit more malleable than most, since neither really has any sort of 'standard' build. (As a sidenote, both Tav and Durge can coexist in the game, as they are considered separate people. BG3 just being special with its two malleable protags....)

For FFXIV, we would ask that player stick as close to Meteor when playing a WoL, as he does exist as something of a default version of the character.
