My ideal first tribe would have 2 adult males 2 adult females and 1 kid. I don't think I want runners though. I want to see how fast they are on their own first. For their outfits and hair I would only choose the villagers with the new outfits and new hairstyles just to see what they look like. Or maybe I'll just choose the first 5 villagers I see just to look at the game. Then once I buy it then I will carefully pick out each tribe member.
