As I go back and forth between which version of TMNT I want to app from, there's one thing that might make the decision for me, so I'm here to ask!
One of the main differences between the IDW comics turtles and the many other versions is that IDW added a reincarnation component to the backstory; Hamato Yoshi and his four sons were killed back in feudal Japan, and then reincarnated as Splinter and the turtles. Splinter is the only one who remembers much of this, though he's told the others about it; Leonardo has some kind of...fleeting, disconnected images from his past life, mostly of his mother, but doesn't seem to remember much that he can string together coherently.
Is reincarnation too out there to work into this setting? It's probably the only major difference that I really see keeping around if I were to app from IDW (which I'm still not sure I'll do at all, admittedly), so if it's not allowed, that kind of makes the decision for me anyway!
