Firstly, I'd imagine a lot of people would be elated if we could get some more commonly requested mechanical clones of FGB permarares, like we previously got for QuadForce and Jelly.
Two items in particular come to mind: Grinning Jack and Samukematsuri Oni Mask.
Grinning Jack is possibly the most frequently requested FGB Shield clone. A Wind or Ice Clone would be ideal and beneficial for all parties; short of that, an identical Energy Clone would not be bad, but would be more appreciated by the people who missed out on the original. Elements I recommend avoiding for this clone are Darkness, Light, Earth and Fire.
And a Samukematsuri Oni Mask clone can easily be themed around Legion Shogun, which is an existing seasonal Z-Token package that is effectively an eleclone of the Samukematsuri Weapon, Armor and Shield, but with no equivalent Water Misc. The Legion Shogun Armor is technically a crossover item itself too.
Another neat concept I have in mind is a Water mechanical clone of Limit Buster, which can be fittingly named Muramasa to thematically match the currently in-game Masamune. The names of these two katanas, commonly found in pop culture, are a reference to the names of two renowned historical Japanese swordsmiths. In Japanese legend, Masamune's blades are said to embody inner stillness and spiritual virtue, while Muramasa's blades are said to embody restlessness and wicked bloodlust.
"The often quoted legend about Masamune and his supposed student Muramasa having a competition over the sharpness of their swords should not go unmentioned here. The contest was for each to suspend their blades in a small creek with the cutting edge facing against the current. Muramasa's sword cut everything that passed its way; fish, leaves floating down the river. Highly impressed with his pupil's work, Masamune lowered his sword into the current and waited patiently. Not a leaf was cut, the fish swam right up to it, and the air hissed as it gently blew by the blade. After a while, Muramasa began to scoff at his master for his apparent lack of skill in the making of his sword. Smiling to himself, Masamune pulled up his sword, dried it, and sheathed it."

Lastly, I'd like to voice my support for Lich Necromantress as an Armor, Pet and/or Guest. Gwen definitely comes to mind first as one of the most loyal supporters of AQ, and if I had an AE-related OC (I have no such thing) I'd also be elated if it were added to the game. The sentiment is definitely very understandable and I think if anyone deserved that privilege, it'd be Gwen.
