Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

That's two people who posted it in the wrong place first. Eh, acceptable enough. Nice image! XD

... An image that I have in my folder here immediately went through my mind when I read of this... "Sir Wilhelm the White"... Did you have to theme him after a color...? Because this image so totally fit my mental projection...

Hider

Unfortunately he wasn't "Wilhelm the Purple". XD

Hm. I am raising my eyebrow a little bit at how great you're making Wilhelm sound, even in the second paragraph. He's sounding like he's THE man of Grado, pretty much, with bards praising him and him leading entire armies against hordes and such. I was kind of intending that to be Rioga, but to a smaller scale than this. Remember, monsters are few enough in number that normal villages still exist relatively safely with but a standard wall. While protection is in order, there are few groups of monsters large enough to be deemed a major hero by defeating. As well, Grado's supposed to be rather weakened, this guy sounds like he's got everything handled by himself. But, seeing how he apparently had enough mercenaries under his command that they could defeat him, suppose mercenaries of Jehanna actually comprised most of that army. Not that armies does much use when the majority of your enemies are spread out like that. Oh, well. It is fine, I just want to point it out. I'll decide myself how much of it is overblown.

Eh, otherwise, there wasn't very much data on the guy himself, so there's not that much to argue about. Other than the fact that... Gosh, he has such a normal-sounding name in a world filled with fantasy-names...! XD ... Kevin is accepted~!

Just curious: what are the rules for class promotion in this RP?

@Lightning Fast

I am going to try to stick with both game-logic and roleplay logic on that one. Let's say that the classes are, like, different styles of fighting. When you've trained one into your body, it will stick that way unless you take some SERIOUS effort into changing it to something else, which is something we won't be having the time to do with the war waging as it is. A promotion is therefore a natural evolution of said classes, which simply makes sense to do in order to grow stronger after a while. I am going to force you to use promotional items, however, and I WILL be remembering the internal levels in case someone feels like promoting on level 10 and another waits to level 20. Assume the Guiding Ring unlocks the magical power within a magician needed to promote, a Knight's Crest might include the necessary armor upgrade, Hero Crest probably has something with the physical body to do, the Elysian Whip... ... ... ... ... What's up with the Elysian Whip, really? Do they whip the poor beast to promote? Geesh. In any case. We're not there yet, but that's roughly that which I had in mind, nothing I've applied to the game yet, though. I'd like it to make sense in-character, as well.

Question, what do stairs mean on the map? Are they considered exits? Can characters stand on them?

@Draconfound

The stairs lead to various places within the castle. A character can stand on them, but a unit coming up from the stairs will naturally not be blocked from ever appearing just because someone is standing in the way. Assume the character is standing by the side of one. I implore you not to go down them, it would become so troublesome for me to try to get the appropriate maps.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Nightmare Bunny It was my own fault, really. OF COURSE you'd all spout suggestions when I said something like that, and of course I'd get even more unsure reading your respective options!

I made her a Soldier after posting that, because why not. Then you came with those varied suggestions. And then I was like "I don't know what I'll make her!". And now she's posted in the Frelian NPC section, for anyone to read, under the class ???. I can now decide later. And that contrast to that character trait of Rafaela's was... slightly accidental. I just felt like it at the time. Those that have mentioned relationships with Natalia, feel free to check and make sure it checks out.

Now to more important things; Getting this party started.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

I... really shouldn't have said anything. XD

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Harbringer Thank you.

I hope nobody minds not being unique in their choice of class when we come to the NPCs, because sincerely, you guys have covered the majority of them already. I just want to create Natalia before I start and then I ran into "What class do I make her to make her feel unique? All classes are, like, taken! ... And I am not giving her an axe!" ... Sensibly, as a princess of Frelia, she would be a Pegasus rider... ... ... But there are no less than six Pegasus riding characters already...! XD

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Harbringer It doesn't necessarily mean either dumb nor dyslexic. Possibly inattentive, but eh~! Thank you for making them~!

RPGC #1 Conversation Thread

Wow. I applaud you, @PlatinumSkink, for getting all your reviews done so fast.

@RomanAria

Sat most of the day to do it.

@PlatinumSkink I'm impressed, and thank you for the review! No offense taken here.

@Kirah

You're welcome~

And, @PlatinumSkink, no offence taken at all. I entered this more for improving my writing than to win, and the only way to do that is to get negative or constructive feedback :P People IRL tend to give me too much positive feedback which really doesn't help when I know in the grand scheme of things I'm not that good a writer -.- So really I'm more saying thank you for the review, even though negative (though my reaction might have been worse if I was in a less neutral/emotionless mood but still, thanks)

@FernStone

Heh. You're welcome.

In particular, Platinum I noticed you may have sugarcoated (from what I can tell) your opinion on some of mine. No need for it, bring it on!! XD

@Henzukaya

I have no idea which one is yours (or any of the previous two's either for that matter). If you'd like me to read it again and see what I say, PM which one it is. I mean, if it is clear I didn't like it, then it is probably not one of the two I'm thinking of voting between, anyway.

His, him. The main character is male. (This is in Go West).
Do you have any feedback on how to make that more obvious?

@Jozarin

... Wait, what? It was a guy? ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Huh. Perhaps "My father threw me out today. His own son." or something to that degree. ... Not sure what this changes with the entry, though.

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Harbringer Nicely done.

Wasn't Ret's level... *checks* 3?
Just like Griswal's is 4.

@Lightning Fast Got it~ I'll get something going, then~

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

... I intended to get this started tonight, but it is 2 AM, I won't be writing anything of good quality tonight. I will go to rest. Tomorrow... tomorrow. Haha. Everyone who can, identify that your positions and information are accurate. Tell me if you'd like any changes. Honestly, are you going to be positioned just outside and miss the delivery of the mission? ... Eh, everyone just outside can eavesdrop, meaning you three. Haha.

... I've now replaced all the bouts of information under those I could with the screens Harbringer made. ... How does it look? XD ... Any inaccuracies should be reported to him, like how Griswal is a level off. ... I saved how it looked before I did that before I replaced it all, just in case. Hahaha.

So, I guess I'll start with holding a little speech, not like any of you can answer me with any speed while I am typing the conversation that needs to happen... Haha...

Oh, and The Hanged Man's character will be hanging out on the second map, he requested if it was possible to have a side-quest, which has the little issue he's alone in the side-quest, and he's playing a Trainee-class alone no less, but I suppose I can whip something up to deal with that... Haha...

Fire Emblem: A Blinding Light

@Harbringer ... Lesse. We seem to have three new characters, although only two with images, hahaha. Last one isn't drawn yet. I guess I'd need those... Haha... And possibly the NPCs present in the battle, if you want to...

Everyone outside the Throne Room will be green until recruited. Unless they're red or purple. Player characters can change at will, though, as soon as they decide to join the bandwagon. Haha.
