About a certain harbinger (contains heavy spoilers for AQ v6.3)
Please do not read this if you have not completed Acts 7 and 8 of the Nod-Krai Archon Quest! IMO the quest was very good so take your time through them and don't spoil it for yourself!
That was your spoiler warning!
A LOT of Sandrone glazing ahead. I'll be bouncing and doing tricks on it.
I cannot tell you how much Sandrone has grown on me ever since the beginning of v6.0 and her death actually made me stand up and gasp in utter shock. Like, I actually wanted to punch my monitor where Dottore's ugly ass mug was. Alongside Ineffa and Aino, Sandrone unexpectedly became a character I grew incredibly attached to her personality and her dynamics with the other characters.
As someone who didn't do the Narzissenkreuz Ordo world quest, all I knew of Sandrone before entering Nod-Krai was that she created all the Katherynes. I didn't have much of an opinion of her, but it was over for me when she flat out threatened the Traveler and Paimon at the commission table. God I love how sassy she is? And she's a bad bitch? I already love her but I was not prepared for how compelling she becomes.
Sandrone exhudes so much main character energy while remaining conceited and lowkey humble. She is a genius, yet her daily motivations are so mundane, her ambitions are so ordinary, and she just has so much humanity with how she struggles with aspects of life we all struggle with. She's a genius, but also doesn't know everything. She tries to choose the best option given her own intellect and the information available. It doesn't matter that Sandrone is so smart; life happens to her just like it does to you and me. She grieves the loss of Alain and Renee. She mourns that other Harbingers are gone. She's sad that friends are no longer there for her tea parties, but we go on and make the best of our lives nonetheless.
I'm destined to fall for the Marionette agenda from the beginning, since my favorite trope is exploring humanity and how we keep going in spite of hardship using only what we are given.
And this isn't including her interaction with others! Sandrone's snappy and rude because she's a genius, but she is never condescending or mocking. Be it conflicted morals with Wanderer or tsundere way of caring for Columbina, I always felt like Sandrone flows off of other playable characters so well.
Please Hoyo make Sandrone playable with all of her sass and loveliness please

For that specific cutscene only. She then proceeds to turn into the most uninspiring annoyed tsundere trope.
I can't believe that Alain was the guy who made her
