I also notice a lot of these characters are not the social types...
Let's change that.

Name: Kenith The Gatherer
Class: Archer
Subclass: Mercenary

Stats:
+ Skill
+ Speed
+ HP

+/- Defence
- Strength
- Magic
- Resistance
- Luck
Recruitment Condition: Clear the map with five or more unmarried (female) units alive.

Starting Equipment: Towering Bow

Profile: A lonely travelling hunter with a dark sense of humor. In contrast to his appearance, Kenith has poor combat skills, instead using his brooding voice and famously large bow to intimidate bandits and discourage conflict. He is, however, very friendly once you gain his trust.
Claims to be searching for a certain "special" someone, however no one knows what that really means.

Preferably, mine would be set in Tellius, as I think that setting is the most interesting, especially the branded subplot.

But you can't reclass in the Tellius games, so I just went with Awakening.

And yes, I will gladly front-line as a Wyvern Rider.

No one likes axes. The axe is the weapon of peasants. Not heroes. We're heroes here. We use swords. Swords, lances and magic.
Whoah there Champ. Axes are amazing, and honestly the best overall weapon type in several of the games. I am all about some axes.

An army of Dark Mages needs a tank? :4dedede:

Cel and Elizabeth (barring Def) as Soldiers will have to do! I know I used Nephenee to tank for the Tellius games, granted she had Ike to leverage that load. We can also reclass Raziek to Wyvern Rider and Esmoire to Soldier if we need more MEAT.

:bluejump:
I actually don't know what the stat spread out for the soldier class is since I haven't played the Tellius games yet. Good in HP, str, def but low in mag, res I assume? No idea on their speed, luck, or skill. This army by the way also needs a name. We should come up with one.

It's ironic you say this because the hero class uses axes. My Donnel be wrecking fools in the beginning to mid game with his axe. He was every bit the zero to hero he promised his mother he would. I'm so proud of him

No way. I spend fifteen minutes on this post just for it to be the last post on the page?
Don't think so. Here it is again.

Halberdiers (promotion of soldier) are basically the Mercenaries of the Lance weapon type.

I think they even get a crit bonus.

Importantly, Nephenee in particular has quite solid defense, averaging 22.2.

So are we gonna do like some forum game with all these Robin-fan FE characters?

Because that would be fun. And it wouldn't be too hard. It would just require a bit of work on our parts.

But we could do it.

Don't mind me, I wanted to do a second character...

Name: Corrick, more famously known as "The Monster of Valm"
Class: Assassin
Subclass: Mercenary/Pirate
Stats: High HP, High Strength, High Skill, High Speed, Low Defense, Low Magic, Low Resistance, Low Luck
Recruitment Conditions: Start of Chapter along with Alith
Starting Equipment: Killing Edge, Killer Bow

Profile: Corrick is complete scum. He is the man responsible behind the infamous massacre that plagued one of the dukedoms of Valm. Eventually, he was caught and brought before the Duke. In a move that surprised everyone in the room, the Duke spared him and let serve a life sentence in prison instead. However, Walhart's plan of conquest soon found its way to the dukedom and in the Duke's final act before his death, he ordered his most skilled Sorceror to plant a curse on Corrick that causes him to protect the Duke's Daughter, Alith, until peace is brought back to the dukedom once more or else he dies should he fail. Corrick was promised freedom and exile into Regna Ferox if he fulfilled the curse. Corrick likes to get into people's heads. Infuriate them yet also manages to intimidate just through his words. Corrick doesn't understand or value other people much at all. However, the more time he spends with Alith the more he finds a semblance of humanity left in him. The one most likely to stab someone else.

Yeesh, I didn't mean for the profile to last that long, but I've always wanted there to be a playable character that's truly not a good person. I guess maybe Walhart falls under that, but even then he still has good intentions.

I also took some freedoms on how curses work in Awakening.

Absolutely. With the highest base damage for their tier and the lowest cost, axes are the most cost-efficient of the weapon triangle.

Yeah. Soldier is like a Soft-Knight. They trade strength and defence for speed and another point of Mov. By virtue, Knight is better for a hard-push style through the map, while Soldier is better for more aggressive play styles since that one extra movement cell adds up by the end of the chapter, and they generally double a lot of their attackers.

I don't understand this. If a Soldier lacks the defences of a Knight but lacks the dodging abilities of faster units, they don't sound like the kind of units that would be allowed to be aggressive?

Just because they are not as tough as a Knight, that doesn't mean they are not tough. They can still take a hit, and while they are not as nimble as Myrmidons, they still dodge to help with their survivability. If a Mercenary can do the job, so can a Soldier.

Edit - Goes without saying, but of course Mercenaries fare better against axes and Soldiers better against swords.

I didn't know a few seconds of the select screen counted as gameplay. :laugh:

They're pretty quiet for now.
*shrugs* still further proves it's true

Hm, I might go visit the Rayman threads then.

Don't sweat it man, your time'll come. For now just chill and work on yourself; the more awesome you are, the faster it comes.

Worked for me, and I remember being in your shoes.
Okay, I'll try that then, just seems easier said then done. Thanks for the advice though :)


MY LUNGS~..... :joyful:

You don't need to apologise, we tacticans use that joke whenever we can :)

For the reading pleasure of the Robin fans, the first parts of the the first chapter of my novel. Remember how I said a few pages back I was writing a book and one of the protagonist's names was Robin? Here you go:

We sharing crafts?
I'm going to try and make a Ghirahim sprite sheet.
Here's the first idle sprite:
ghirahim sprite.PNG

It's based on sprites made my GregarLink on Deviantart, who made the first Link sprites for SSF2.
How is it for a start?

Name: Edgar
Class: Priest (Sage/War Monk aka my favorite class)
Subclass: Fighter (Warrior/Hero) Knight (General/Great Knight)
Stats: Base and from Awakening
Growths: HP 60% STR 30% MAG 40% SKL 30% SPD 20% LCK 35% DEF 35% RES 45%
Modifiers: STR -1 MAG +1 SKL -1 SPD -1 LCK 0 DEF +2 RES +2
Recruitment Conditions: Neutral. Talk to Chrom and survive the chapter
Starting Equipment: Mend, Vulnerary, Bronze Axe C in Staff D in Axe

Profile: Used to be a soldier in Ylisse but the extremeness of War caused him to take up Clergy instead. Works in a local monastary and is a constant support to the local village. Charming and outgoing, Edgar occasionally boasts about his ability to take beatings. Feels uncomfortable around intense situations.

Most likely to get distracted.

....Wow he sounds like the antithesis to alot of characters here :/

Could we at least get a release date for Mewtwo besides Spring 2015?
Is that so hard? I don't care if they push it back, I just want to know. There's no way he's going to take all the way to May.

I not really the patient type.......
Don't worry. If I'm able to wait 9 years and counting for FF XV, you can wait for the inevitable news this year. Why not start passing the time by making your own unit, which we all started a page or two back?

Yeah, I guess you're right (though I am still waiting for PM pal release)

Um, could you give me a scaffold I might be able to use? I am not really sure where to start.

Oh, we're doing the FE characters thing again. Neato!
Guess it's time to reiterate the one I made way back when. :3

Name: Jona Drakonis
Class: Mercenary
Subclasses: Myrmidon, Tactician
Stats: medium HP, high Strength, medium Magic, high Skill, low Speed, great Luck, medium Defence, low Resistance
Starting skills: Vengeance, Armsthrift
Starting equipment: Iron Blade, Vulnerary

Personality: Very optimistic and friendly, but likes to keep to himself. Likes a good drink. Very determined. Prefers heavy blades over normal swords.
Travels the lands as a Sellsword, looking for a place to call home. Likes to reminisce and share the stories of his journeys, but evades questions about his life before them.
Special: By either reaching a high support level with a certain character or beating a chapter/paralogue, he is revealed to be one of the Branded and gains the unique Starfall skill.

Recruitment: Starts as a neutral character in a bad position with two other NSC Soldiers/possible recruits. Will join if being talked to by lead character(s) or if he survives the battle. If the other characters are NSCs, additional reward is gained from getting them through the chapter, too.

7.8/10. Too many Dark Mages. None of the characters talk to each other.
Let's create supports between our characters then:happysheep:
I say that, but I have no creativity for that right now

As for the dark mages, we shall reclass them all:roll:
