We have 47 named people hanging around Vale itself at the moment. That does not include named people we haven't seen (which bumps it up to something like 55), and does not include people who we know are in other countries/kingdoms/elsewhere at the moment (which bumps it up to 60ish). I really don't think we need more characters until they go to other countries.

When they travel to other countries, then yes more characters are good. But at the moment, for the purpose of defending Vale against Cinder, the White Fang, and the Grimm, we do not need more characters except maybe a few teachers (like, five at most including the ones from the other schools) or a few older Huntsmen.
