Included are a group called "underrepresented characters;" Asexual, Chromatic, Trans and/or Genderqueer, Characters with Disabilities, Fat, and Older characters. I think it’s a very wonderful idea, but not everyone does. Among the complaints I’ve heard are that KB will be handing out cookies to reward [...]
