Characters in RISE scenarios

Hi All,
When working with RISE, the scenario block is really useful. Unfortunately, there is a limitation in terms of characters:
- one can only choose from your gallery (diverse, but not really there yet)
- one can't hide the character.
Any way this will change? This would be truly helpful. If diversifying the gallery is too time consuming, maybe at least give the option to hide the character (you can already do that, but just on the text slides, not on the Dialogue ones - and since the learner's character doesn't show up anyway, I think it's better off than having a random character that doesn't represent either sides in there).
Thanks,
Elena

+1 to this.
Our organization (like many) loves Rise as a rapid authoring solution.
Our 2023 vision is to increase our scenario/practical self directed solutions while remaining true to our DEI principles. I would love to see an avatar agnostic solution for the scenario block.
Hi Elena and John,
Both of these suggestions sound like great additions to the functionality of the character library! Currently, using third-party characters and hiding characters aren't options in Rise 360. A request has already been submitted for both of these features. I'm going to add your voices to those requests. If either one makes it onto our feature roadmap, this conversation will be updated.
Thanks for reaching out!
