::: I favor the notion of B2, which keeps Griffin as the enemy, but this time an enemy with a solid motivation, not just being a jerk (Oni 1's Griffin) or just a maniac (Oni 1's Muro). He knows that humanity can benefit from the Chrysalis in the short run but also feels strongly that giving everyone the Chrysalis will be opening Pandora's Box as the things develop inside people, so he fights to keep them out of the public's hands. This also places him in the anti-authoritarian* position, as a rogue or guerilla, which is quite interesting to imagine. | ::: I favor the notion of B2, which keeps Griffin as the enemy, but this time an enemy with a solid motivation, not just being a jerk (Oni 1's Griffin) or just a maniac (Oni 1's Muro).

:::*When I say anti-authoritarian, that's only if the governments are giving Chrysalises to people. If the gov'ts decide that it's too dangerous to go the Daodan route, then Griffin won't have to fight the gov't, only the black market Chrysalis peddlers. That simply makes him anti-Syndicate, as he has always been. Then again, even though the gov'ts would probably refuse to give them to ordinary citizens because of the risks of having a revolt by an Imago-stage populace, they might give Chrysalises to key officials to guarantee their health if the situation is dire enough that using ACCs and breathing masks won't suffice to keep someone healthy. In that case, we're indeed back to a situation where Griffin has to fight to keep the Chrysalises out of the hands of politicians. | :::<nowiki>*</nowiki>When I say anti-authoritarian, that's only if the governments are giving Chrysalises to people.
