I've been calling her 'Romlariel' internally because Romleski designed her game mechanics, but the lawyers wouldn't let us use that name because they thought it was too close to Ariel, and Creative believes Nami to be a better choice ;p I agree with them of course, but trolling Classick is part of my job.

I assure you that Creative was wrong and it is your moral imperative to make them acutely aware of this fact.

(And its not okay to be similar to Disney characters, but One Piece is fine?)
