I also happen to really like Aveline, she strikes me as the moderate voice of reason between the two sides of the debate.

It would be nice if someone else could tank I guess so you don't always have to bring her along. Fenris can off-tank, but he doesn't really have the skillset to be a primary tanker.

A shame that Fenris isn't halfway up the Friend tree yet, but that's very easily done if you're not checking a guide every few seconds to check that he isn't going to disapprove.
