1. Deborah Brischoletti (Dragon Quest V)
I would vote Philia, but NeoCracker would have my hide for his boots if I didn't vote for Deborah. Also, she's actually quite nice when you see past her bossy personality. Though I chose Nera for my first playthrough for the DS Version since I already chose Bianca twice for the SNES Version, the choice that most people are guilted toward. Don't skin me just yet NeoCracker, I've already gotten Zoom on the new playthrough I'm doing where I'm choosing Deborah.

2. Lei Fang (Dead or Alive)
I haven't played any of bracket #2's games.

3. Estellise "Estelle" Sidos Heurassein (Tales of Vesperia)
I haven't played any of bracket #3's games.

4. Faris Scherwiz (Final Fantasy V)
I don't really have much of a choice based on the artwork Ultima Shadow posted.

5. L'arachel (Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones)
Pretty, comedic, yet competent? Yes. Though I like Tana better and think she's be better for Ephriam than L'Arachel.

6. Lenna Charlotte Tycoon (Final Fantasy V)
Lenna, I've actually played the game she's from and her artwork in that link is

7. Blanc Neige (Shining Tears)
I haven't played any of bracket #7's games.

8. Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII)
Sorry Terra, I know I've played your game before but, well, you know.

Out of curiousity, what's the deal for people who want to suggest more characters? Will you take suggestions for the next batch of 128, or will it have to wait until the 3rd tournament? (3rd as in Rydia won the first one, the second one is happening right now, and the 3rd one will start a while after a winner of this 512 character tournament is declared)
