Not sure about your other problems but the "All custom characters" group will always be there.
It sounds like you added an NPC that's part of a group that wasn't part of your arc before. If you add one custom guy, and he's part of a group, the group comes with him. I'd suggest working backwards, undoing everything you recently did until the file size drops-- that's when you've found the guy.
Also, check enemies in your arc for their group associations. If you've added someone whose group association is "all custom characters", then you just added all your custom characters to your arc.

Hi there,
First, thanks to any who have ideas as to how to fix this issue.
It's a strange problem. I made an arc, #130465, with custom villains and it runs fine.
However, it's tougher than I intended in parts and I wanted to tweak the underlings backgrounds as well.
When i initially went in and couldnt find any of my custom groups/characters. After several emails w/ customer support most were recovered.
Unfortunately the minions in the group for this arc didn't appear. So I remade them. Now when I look at the arc it's waaaaay oversized-it wasn't before-and the new minions do not appear in the arc at any point-nor do any edits to e.b.'s or avs. In fact no edits seem to stick.
Further, when I run the arc the minions are listed as belonging to the "all custom characters" group-which Ive never named as a group. The original group, that they were built in -the Time Wardens-seems to only exist for the e.b.'s or avs.
Under 'my custom groups' I do have a batch called 'all custom characters' but Im not sure if everyone has that or not. Nor am I sure if deleting it will delete all my characters.
Any constructive help appreciated.
