I think additional character entries by route is a good idea. Maybe to start with though we keep it all on one page and see how cluttered things get before we go making whole sub-pages for it.
Let's see, off the top of my head... Grifter: Diana
Spencer: Bam, That one astronomy teacher/club goer, Hal
Chester: Andrew, The Critical Hit owner, Vernon
Dozer: Harvey
Darius: Isaac, Azaghal

I'm currently working on a one-page-only draft. Once It's posted, I'll update and we can talk about if we want to keep it or push it to another page, especially if new characters are added down the line.

Since we seem to be okay with the current setups, we need to clean it up.
- Update Bios
- Find updated and clean character images (CBG seems to post these in png form, and I think that's the best way to take this since characters can no longer take up the center of the screen though that's IMO)
- Sort out cameos, since a good number of the side characters are either friend of Dynewolf, Patreon followers, etc. (Bam and Azahgael are ones that come to mind)

So now that other human characters have been revealed I'm trying to decide if the Token Human trope should apply to protagonist. He's no longer the only human in the cast but he's still the only one on the tennis team which is the group the narrative revolves around. What do other people think?

My point of view completely coincides with yours, ajhale. I believe that this trope still applies to the protagonist mainly because of the main characters/love interests from tennis team and it should be returned back. Thank you very much for this topic)

I was wondering how we're going to be tackling Major Route Specific Characters. Characters that can be seen as the Antagonist of the major routes (Diana, Vernon) and those who can only be seen if you go down a certain route (Harvey, Andrew, Bam).
Initially, I thought that due to their importance to the story, we should put them on their own page that lacks any sort of spoiler markers. The benefit is obvious, more room for characters without making the page a hassle to scroll down plus most people who go there expecting the story won't have to worry about being spoiled for the most part, but I think that would be too disjointed with each other since the cast is smaller on average compared to most.
So what I've considered is making another category under Supporting Cast that has all of these characters categorized in folders depending on what route they play a major role in. That way, the character page stays one and routes can be seen from a character list, much like a wiki does.
Of course, before we do any of that, we would need to define the people in particular who are in this position. I think the current easy way is to say "any character who has been given a canonical name, given/plan to have official artwork and appears/mentioned in more than 2/3 or more scenes." If anyone is interested, I would love to hear a response.
