In Response To: Common Plot Elements (poena.dare #CP#g)

: Augmented Hero
: The Hero has special abilities, known or unknown, that set him apart
: from others. - X X X - - X X

I think #1 and #2 are inconsistent with regards to the Myth world... Who would you name as the Hero? Unlike other Bungie games, the player is not a character in the world.

: Good AI Bad AI Multiple AI personalities competing for the hero's
: attention. - X X X - - - X

This is too specific... I would change this to "Serves several factions" or similar, which would not change the result.

: Assimilated Friends Friends or allies are turned against you. -
: X X X X X - X

Again, this is too specific... By "assimilated" you probably mean that some characters which were once your friends are now your enemies, with few other obvious changes. In which case Oni could be added to the list, and Halo removed (the Flood undergo some fairly obvious changes, and you are never fighting plain humans (unless you count the crazy guy on 343GS...)). The assimilated civilians are "unchanged" enough to fit in my new definition.

New categories:
-Lone hero: You by far the strongest fighter of your faction (Pathways (because everyone else is dead), M1,M2,MI,Oni,Halo)
