[@Gohan][@Raddum] Yo, thought I'd give you guys a little heads up -- Firion's on the way. Here's what I've got so far (I'll edit in the rest of it as I work on it): [hider=Firion] [center][img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/cf5216b4-4c28-4c36-a726-6d5127f7e30a.jpg[/img] "A future where happiness blooms like a wild rose... That's what I'm fighting for!" [b][s] [/s] Firion[/b] [b][h3][i]Name:[/i][/h3][/b]Firion [b][h3][i]World:[/i][/h3][/b]Final Fantasy II [b][h3][i]Alignment:[/i][/h3][/b]Cosmos [b][h3][i]Appearance:[/i][/h3][/b][hider=Firion][img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/dcc44815-146f-4792-88e7-2fecd7844e39.jpg[/img][/hider][hider=Firion (CG)][img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/eb2194d5-24b1-4e88-80e4-f95145e3930f.jpg[/img][/hider][b][h3][i]Class:[/i][/h3][/b]Weapon Specialist [b][h3][i]Weapon(s):[/i][/h3][/b][url=http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Wild_Rose_(Weapon)]Wild Rose (Sword)[/url] [hider=Wild Rose & Other Weapons][img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/e1e88f8a-5c9b-4245-829f-2b08d7d7a067.png[/img][/hider][b][h3][i]Summon:[/i][/h3][/b]N/A [b][h3][i]Information:[/i][/h3][/b][url=http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Firion/Dissidia]Final Fantasy Wiki: Firion (Dissidia)[/url][b][h3][i]Abilities (Non-Dissidia):[/i][/h3][/b]Despite being known under the class of 'Weapon Specialist', in Firion's own world he was also able to wield magic. Unlike the other incarnations of Firion to have appeared in previous cycles, this version retains that ability beyond just the use of the three primary elemental types of magic (Fire, Blizzard, Thunder) which are wielded using his elemental wand weapons, now learning magic without the aid of these weapons just as he could outside of the cycles. Granted, he has not yet learned - or recalled rather, since coming to this cycle - all of his intended spells, and still uses the wands for spells he wants to converse power with, but he plans use many forms of magic in order to use them to further build upon his 'skilled at all, master of none' status and hopefully optimize himself into something more than he is. His resolve and passion aids the process of developing his talents in master faster, allowing for exceptional growth with only short amounts of experience. He comes from a world where adaptive capabilities allowed one to learn virtually any ability, and this has only become more true for him as time went on. Certain abilities that were dependant on 'EX Mode' in previous incarnations no longer need him to be within it, as he possesses a new higher state of power. {Magic} Though healing magic had always been Maria's favourite, Firion has been developing the use of basic healing magic and has already learned spells such as Esuna (removes negative status effects). He is particularly interested in learning the more advanced and complex types of support/status magic, and through hard work he has remarkably already managed to learn Dispel (removes support magic from the target) and Reflect (deflects spells back at the opponent). These may not be the only magic spells immediately at his disposal, or the only ones he plans on learning. Before entering the present cycle, Firion also knew higher magic - including the fabled Ultima spell - but has since forgotten it upon awakening here. {Blood Weapons} [hider=Firion's 'Blood Weapons'] [img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/29dabc6c-b89e-4aaf-9b27-9c10a51a7733.png[/img][/hider] While the incarnations of Firion in previous cycles required he be in 'EX Mode' in order to access these versions of his weapons, this incarnation is able to activate them naturally; however, doing so takes a toll on him -- unless he finds appropriate weapons to give him these effects, the process of enchanting them in this way is magical in nature and therefore costs magic points like other spells. This power is an embodiment of the passionate hot-blooded spirit of a young man who will sacrifice his very life in order to reach his dreams. This is just one of the abilities that is no longer dependant on 'EX Mode'. [b][h3][i]EX Mode:[/i][/h3][/b]Dreams of Fynn "You could never erase our hopes for the future!" [b][s] [/s] Firion[/b] [hider=The power of a passionate soul][img]https://img.roleplayerguild.com/prod/users/4ffdb906-0ed5-40bd-80b4-28097da9c000.png[/img][/hider] Even though his general appearance remains identical, when he enters 'EX Mode' Firion's colour scheme changes significantly in terms of his clothing. His weapons seemingly come to life, able to levitate and be controlled by the young man's will -- while he is able to exert magic to do this particular ability naturally, in 'EX Mode' this becomes a constant ability without the need to use any energy or effort at all. Wild rose petals now follow both him and his weapons everywhere during this state, and he is able to cause the weapons them to teleport at will - alongside being able to teleport himself to any of their locations - as well as gaining the ability to be duplicated -- subsequently increasing the number of weapons he can wield until he has an entire armoury at his disposal. His overall battle performance increases too, and he also gains a natural healing ability that resembles the Regen magic spell. Though he is significantly drained after using this ability - the extent often determined by how many weapons he created - it easily turns him into a one-man army for its duration. [b][h3][i]EX Burst:[/i][/h3][/b]The Wild Rose Garden "I will not let their struggle be wasted!" [b][s] [/s] Firion[/b] The entire battlefield becomes temporarily engulfed in pocket dimension that alters the world to Firion's vision and causes a garden of wild roses to surround the ground everywhere. As if beckoned by the spirits of all the hopes and dreams of the people of Fynn - given life by Firion's resolve - weapons appear everywhere in the sky and rain down upon all of his enemies for powerful Non-Elemental damage, each hit from the weapons ignoring physical and magical defences and acting as if Dispel was attached to them. This ability will revert Firion back to his normal form upon completion of the power's effects. [b][h3][i]Notes:[/i][/h3][/b]As portrayed in the novel 'Muma no Meikyū' - and hinted at in the game - Firion and Maria are actually in love with each other, and this will be a significant element in his characterization here, though - like the Emperor Mateus in this story - he is only taking ideas from that novel and is not inherently meant to be the same version of Firion in it. [hider=Muma no Meikyū][quote=Final Fantasy Wiki]In the novelization [i]Final Fantasy II Muma no Meikyū[/i], Firion and Maria become a romantic couple at the end.[/quote][/hider] Information from the overall character will be included here for reference material, as this version of Firion has been developed beyond the limits of the original 'Dissidia' games in order to make him more fleshed out and interesting. This incarnation of Firion is from the same world as this cycle's incarnation of Emperor Mateus, making him quite different to the one in previous cycles and possessing a complex nature. He possesses personal touches - like Emperor Mateus - and is a unique version. He possesses the abilities he has in all the different versions of 'Dissidia' - as well as the original game he comes from - but now also possesses new powers.
