In my opinion, we'll get almost for sure a new character as second Knight, since it's highly possible that Jeanne will just stay human.
About the Rook, I don't know who could become one. I know that many speak about Tiamat, but I think she will sign a contract to be the familiar of someone, since she was introduced to be a powerful candidate as a familiar by the Familiar Master. About pawns, I think that a couple of good candidates could be Elmenhilde and Kiyome Abe. Elmenhilde would be probably worth 2-3 pawns and Kiyome 1 (considering even Issei's power growth). We don't know yet if Issei possesses a mutation piece and that could change many things too. Last edited by Ka-el; 2018-08-14 at 11:37. |

or a mutation piece, but the pieces cannot become mutated before to having reincarnated someone (they can do it only after, according to the growth of the person itself). You can receive only a mutation piece if you're lucky, having more would be unfair to the others.

I don't think Elmenhilde will become a Pawn I would prefer her remain as a vampire. I do agree with Kiyome Abe becoming one of Issei's Pawns.

Lint is already a Brave Saint as it was shown that she was a reincarnated angel in Volume 24 in the Rias vs Vali match.
For Verrine, it said that evil pieces can't work on gods or god-class beings. Verrine being a Super Devil and defeating Mahabali and his team of Asuras along with Balberith just closes off the possibility of her becoming Issei's or anyone's servants. Yes there's Issei but Rias reincarnated him into a devil before he became able to defeat god-class beings. And now we see the affect that is having on Issei's pawn pieces as all of them mutated. |

@Lucidrago It was stated that Evil Pieces can't work on Gods. Evil Pieces can work on God-Class beings because God-Class beings aren't Gods but beings that are God-Class it would just take a King strong enough to use Evil Pieces on them which there are very few you can for example Surtr 2nd.

Being at a level of a god doesn't make you a god. Only if your category is "god" (or buddha) you can't be reincarnated. It's not a matter of power, but of status. |

Elmenhilde will remain a vampire even if she become a devil, she will conserve her traits of vampire. I think she will even because like this she could be able to be under the sun (since if you're powerful sunlight doesn't affect your power), since she is a pure-blood vampire, so she is a nightwalker. It's true that weaknesses remain even if you are reincarnated, but maybe becoming a devil would weaken her vulnerability to it.

@Ka-el I understand reincarnated devils retain they original race traits but I was thinking more along the lines that Elmenhilde already has a long life span but I am thinking about future possible harem members that have short life spans compared to devils that Issei could use his Evil Pieces on to gain a long life span.

I'd prefer it if Issei got all new people for his remaining peices since he got trade the first 4 but supposedly already introduced characters are going to join. I also would prefer it if Tiamat became Issei's familiar over a peerage member.

Well it never said that vampires have shorter life spans than devils so it's just safe to assume that all supernatural species have around the same lifespan. But honestly I don't see Elmenhilde becoming his servant. |
