Expanding on FF6Fanatics idea... I was thinking something a little less controlled, but only to an extent...

Ok, so we define the espers by their elements, then when you select Fuse from the menu, it will automatically semi-randomly select one of X number of attacks based on that esper's group. I figure, in order to keep true to her themes, there should be some give-and-take with the abilities. For each esper, i suggest we use one of each of the following:
  1. A "Backfire" - a weak attack that includes some kind of negative effect on Iris/the party
  2. a normal attack - an average attack, nothing really special
  3. a strong attack - a good attack on-par with mid-range spells
  4. an "Overflow" - a massive attack that includes some kind of negative effect on Iris/the party.
  5. a summon - the actual summon spell of the epser
we can tweak the odds for early balancing, but I'd suggest after her WoR subquest, the odds are changed and the "backfire" attack removed entirely.

If we create one of each of these kinds of attacks for each element (including non-elemental but maybe excluding poison?)... we can populate each esper's set of attacks based on some combination of those attacks. so this would give us ~40 abilities that get mix-and-matched throughout the espers, however keeping each esper more-or-less unique.

I am expanding commands/attacks, so we can fit the full set of abilities we want Iris to mix-and-match with. But we can also reuse some existing abilities (like adding in the summons). For a startup animation, unless someone wants to build a brand new one from scratch, id suggest the summon animation with a different palette.

Thoughts?
