Inconsistency API response

[RezkyRizaldi]

When you request to /characters/amber, the response contains

{
  ...
  gender: "Female",
  specialDish: "Outrider's Champion Steak!",
  ...
}

which in the other request it doesn't exists.

And in some endpoints e.g. /characters/keqing or /characters/jean the response contain

{
  outfits: [
    {
      ...
    }
  ]
}

which in the other request isn't present.

And other things like:

• nation key in /characters/aloy has 'Unknown' string value
• birthday key in /characters/traveler(s) is missing
• affilation key in /characters/traveler(s) has 'Not affilated to any Nation' string value

Is it better that if the missing key should be nullable instead of undefined or having an empty string?

I'll look into it! 👍

* `affilation` key in `/characters/traveler`(s) has `'Not affilated to any Nation'` string value

Is it better that if the missing key should be nullable instead of undefined or having an empty string?

These API responses are made for clarity, for example "Not affiliated to any Nation" is still information about the character returning a null-able value here could mean that the affiliation is not known or hasn't been added yet or that there is none so the current output provides more clarity.

I think it's better to make a new key-value for example affiliated with a boolean value or something that can be processed and consumed flexibly.

But it will make a breaking changes for the stucture.
