>>10399836Staying in character with Yuul is a balancing act for Ina. She's well-established as a cautious introvert and a bit of a weak-willed wimp (basically a less Oriental, less artistic self-insert), so making progress with her needs to be done in a manner that matches up with her personality and general behavior. Tiara is the de-facto party leader, and Scout is brave to the point of foolhardiness; their in-game personalities can easily soak up the spotlight when they spearhead the task at hand, easily leaving Yuul and Watoto in the dust.
I saw plenty of criticism for Yuul blundering into an undercover role as opposed to taking the initiative and doing it on her own. Her character, both stat-wise and in regards to personality, simply has more glaring limitations than the others, but it gives the party a very genuine sort of balance that I wouldn't trade for another Tiara or Scout any day. Yuul is observant, cautious, and a voice of reason when cool heads are needed (remember she was the only one against outright maiming / killing Sniff). Her shining moments are less prominent than the others, but she serves as a party anchor and details girl. Not a glorious role, but it has its place. I've played the healbot bitch before; it's without glory and thankless, but it keeps the gears going.
To close, I would like to see Yuul's strengths more played up to; a big reason why I'm in favor of the intermission session, where she could put her academic talents to use and drum up some helpful knowledge about the supernatural.
