I feel that this whole Erdrick info just feels weirdly incomplete, its just confusing to say if its being used as a leakbait or being an actual leak. The arguments from Tansut and Verge seem to cover different things of the character, and I just think that the whole situation seems a bit complex and simple at the same time to say something securely on the matter regarding the leakbait status.
-For the complex part, my wonder is that if Erdrick was being used as a leakbait, why mention him together with the Luminary on the first place? It makes the argument a little bit more complicated when they can just mention one of them to one group and the other to other groups to make more confusion and prevent leaks, or alternatively you can make a simpler one by saying its Erdrick plus the other protagonists as alts.
-For the simple part, if SE wanted to use a DQ character as leakbait, why don't use other popular MC of DQ as well? The protagonists from I, V and VIII are also relatively well known characters, and considering its SE that we're talking about, its difficult to imagine that the list is quite small when they could add Bravely Default and TWEWY to the mix.
At the moment, I'm leaning on Erdrick due Tansut seemingly having SE connections, but thats about it. There is nothing concrete and the only thing we can do at the moment is just wait on it.
PP also has a Fighter spirit and appears in the mural as well right? That would possibly mean that the DLC characters are given a lot more planning beforehand.
