Fire Emblem - The Crisis of Akaneia

sorry for busting your style if that's what you wanted to do Fantasy it's just that I'd prefer to keep these close to the games for the sake of things going easy.

Fire Emblem - The Crisis of Akaneia

If you have more than one weapon you are free to switch out between the two during battle but you'd need to have the chance to do so otherwise the enemy might stab you in the face.

Fire Emblem - The Crisis of Akaneia

Only works for assassins or classes shown to use more than one weapon just as in the game.

Jiro the Mercenary

Name: Jiro Age: 31 Gender: Male Class: Mercenary Home country: Valm Appearance: Jiro is a medium sized man of thin muscular build. He has hair that reaches down to the end of his neck which is greyish black in color. He has a somewhat handsome face but he isn't considered especially attractive in terms of facial features. He has thin eyebrows that match his hair color. He wears a black leather coat, and a simple white shirt underneath it with a chain mail over his shirt. He wears a pair of standard brown combat boots while traveling or a simple pair of shoes while in a casual environment. He wears two steel shoulder pads and two leg guards with fingerless gloves as well when traveling. He stands at nearly six foot and is a rather imposing figure. He has a rather broad nose and his eyes are dark green which gives him a spooky look at times. His company's signature armband is on the left shoulder. Personality: Jiro is a simple man whom has no problem adjusting to most things in life. He is normally very calm and jovial when he is around people he knows about. However he is also known to be very serious and very blunt when the need arises though he dislikes being completely serious all of the time. He is very protective of his companions Zaku and Isabelle; willing to risk his life to save them both if need be and refuses to let anyone harm them. Though he will make them fight their own battles when he thinks it is better for them to do so. He has disgust for cold weather and prefers warmer climates. He naturally is distrustful of people he doesn't know but he gives most people a chance to prove themselves and it is very unlikely for him to be caught off guard. He is not one to break under any sort of pressure and takes challenges in stride. Despite his age loves to screw around with people but does his best not to do it often and mostly only when he's bored. When in combat he is a deadly individual having no qualms about playing dirty to win though he finds it unsatisfying if he has to play dirty and does indeed enjoy fighting people despite feeling bad about taking another's life. At the end of the day however Jiro is hardly a man of faith like the rest of his party. He practices the basic rights of Naga's worship to not get bothered by priests and he also knows the basic rights to the Plegia worshipers as well but he finds that much more distasteful. He has no interest in holy matters otherwise outside of mild curiosity. In regards to his job he only takes jobs from people whom pay him in advance by at least half and has prided himself in never backing down from a job. Backstory: Jiro was born in the Valm City of Nero's Cross, a small city near the coast but still prospers due to it being a prime trading location between the coast and Chon'sin. His father was a locksmith and a thief by trade earning money by anyone whom would hire him and his mother was a simple merchant whom met his father by chance on a festival and had fallen in love with the rogue. His father despite his profession was very protective and supportive of his son in childhood often bringing him presents while he learned to read from his mother whom loved to teach her son new things. As a young child he wasn't very energetic or curious but he was able to climb really well and put things together easily. His mother encouraged his exploration in the house and even took him for walks with family friends around. His father would really start to take interest in him when he grew old enough to hold a sword and found out that the boy was very talented in that regard. But his mother disliked him practicing with sharp weapons so he was forced to use wooden weapons and even that was pushing it because his mother was very protective of Jiro. He received bumps and bruises but Jiro took it in stride and instantly took a liking to the nature of sword fighting even though it hurt and he was taught many valued lessons by sparring with his dad in his off time. He still continued to help his mother around her stall and later her business when it started to increase in size. Later when his father was caught by the local mayor's aide for stealing from the local bank Jiro was left without a father for a time. However before Jiro's dad was sent to jail he had already picked up most if not all of the basics of sword play and became a natural at it quickly. Though he disliked his father's imprisonment he never really begrudged the local police as it was his dad's fault for being a thief. His mother on the other hand was miserable for a time and clung to her son for a time. Jiro's life after that is one he prefers not to talk about but he states that he found another man whom he trained with for sometime before he became a mercenary much to his mother's disapproval. His father got out around this time and congratulated his son for his hard earned talents and stated he was proud of Jiro. As a mercenary he started out serving with a local sellsword group where he earned his keep at the age of ninteen. He would work with the sellswords for a couple years before going solo and earning a name for himself in the local area before branching out and going through Valm taking work where he could get it. He has seen many legends and learned many tricks while doing so. He often worked as a foot soldier as he disliked horses as combat tools seeing them as just another limb to worry about. However his life took a strange turn as around the age of twenty five. On his way to another town he came across a slaughter where a group of men were fighting a caravan and curious he went to check it out. Most of them men were dead by the time he arrived. However he saw one brave young man fighting a great knight and he was clearly tired as the larger man eventually forced him down. But before the final blow was given Jiro saved the boy, for what reason he still doesn't know, and killed the great knight after blocking the blow. Then Jiro heard out the boy whom called himself Zaku and said he was the son of a bard traveling with the group and that his dad died in the battle. Jiro felt bad for the kid and offered him the chance to join him. Zaku didn't even hesitate and joined Jiro. Zaku and Jiro would get along extremely well as the boy spoke little, ate little, and was very polite and well mannered. Jiro hadn't intended to work with a official partner but he found one in the seventeen year old boy. In fact Jiro found that the boy had the works of a skilled myrmidon and took him as an unofficial protege. The two worked for many a lord in both Valm and the nearby land of Akaneia under anyone whom would pay well for both of these men. On the way back to a local Ferox Lord whom has been looking to settle a 'debt to a Plegian Wyvern Rider' they ran into a group of sellswords under attack by a group of shadowy men. They had come across this by taking a short cut across an abandoned castle. Most of the sellswords ran away and Jiro felt disgust in the matter and was about to turn away when Zaku pointed out a strange sight, a young girl in a fancy dress holding a healing stave whom was hiding from the group of men. Jiro decided to get the young girl out of there despite Zaku's protests to leave them and that this was none of their business. However Jiro pointed out that Zaku would be dead if not for that line of thought being tossed aside from Jiro years ago. Jiro saved the young girl and killed the assassins with Zaku in tow cutting a bloody swathe and saving the girl. The girl was shaken but she held her composure surprisingly well. Zaku immediately dismissed the assassins from a lack of skill having been killed by two swords for hire. The girl thanked them and tried to explain herself before Jiro dismissed her saying this was a 'freebie' and that she should be more careful from now on. Zaku was glad to be finally moving on but the girl followed them. Despite Zaku and Jiro flat out ignoring her for two hours she finally wore them down and she explained that she was a runaway from a local lord's hideaway saying that she had taken company in the service of the sellswords before being attacked. She figured that she was now a free agent and asked to join them seeing as they had no cleric on their side and stating that she herself was a cleric with a skill and aptitude for healing people. She also knew a variety of other skills. Zaku objected immediately but Jiro felt a strange sympathy for the young girl whom was no more than sixteen or fifteen at the time and agreed to take her in. Together they would work together and since they were now considered a larger group Jiro declared that they were the Garnet Armband Company after the armbands that Jiro had purchased for them with money given to them by their latest job. Jiro had become a leader much to his own disbelief but was oddly happy that he now had a family of sorts and two years had past since then. Weapons: Steel Sword (Bastard Sword) Items: Elixir

Zaku The Myrmidon

Name: Zaku Age: Twenty Three Gender: Male Class: Myrmidon Home country: Valm Appearance: He wears a light brown hard leather vest when fighting as a way of protecting his body with minimal hindrance to his own movement. He wears his armband around his right arm just tight enough for it not to slide around his arm. Personality: Zaku is a very calm and very collected individual whom is described by those around him as frighteningly polite. Zaku is not one to show his emotions and is normally seen with a very simple smile on his face and or is otherwise seen as dull. He rarely ever takes the prerogative to talk to someone unless he has to and is very much silent as a whole. However he has no qualms with talking with people and can be shockingly charismatic when he wants to be. He is the first one to suggest the more practical option in a matter and isn't afraid to get his hands dirty if no one else chooses it. However he says he is no leader and almost always refuses leadership possessions unless he is directly hired for the role. Despite this he is competent in regards to being in the position where he needs to choose for the group. He also walks along a fine line between telling the truth and lying often blurring the lines when he wants to. He laughs at trying to get along with others and often stays in the shadows reading books and preferring the company of animals to men and women. He refers to Jiro has his direct superior and views Isabelle as a burden and at worst he outright refuses her aid. Though he will still rush to her aid normally. He has no interest in romance though enjoys reading novels about it. He outright loathes any attempts at people to try and get him to attend a religious event or practice the rites. He is not afraid to take the unpopular stance on a matter though he will at times be disgusted with certain choices and outright refuse to let them happen. He has no compassion for those who beg or feel sorry for themselves viewing them as weak willed fools whom should take care of their own problems but doesn't voice this vocally. He will outright mock people however if they try to mock him back. If he is in the fault or he is wrong he has no problem with admitting to this. In combat Zaku is known to be a ferocious machine of death killing people with calculated and deadly slashes of his swords. He is at his 'most human' when he is fighting and views combat as a means to an end and an experience unlike any other. He is outright terrifying with how calm he gets and the simple smile he wears never goes away when he is winning and when he is challenged by another. Though he also outright loathes all kinds of magic he doesn't deny it's usefulness. Backstory: Zaku has outright refused to describe or detail his past merely stating that he is the son of a bard and that is all. He also states that he is from Valm but gives no details from where exactly he was born and if he was raised in a certain city. He also refuses any questions on how he was trained to fight other than that he was trained by a very deadly man. He was saved by Jiro after he personality held off and killed a group of men whom proved to much for all those around him only being overcome from fatigue and when a larger enemy forced him back. He is a close friend of Jiro having been with him for over six years now. When he first joined Jiro he was still young but he was not much different than he was before hand. His skill in sword combat and his ability to overcome even lance wielding enemies solidified him in the mind of his employers as one of the deadliest young men they had even seen. Jiro taught him points that he was lacking making him even more of a threat then he was before. He has taken down enemies much more experienced then him in singles combat. Though he has not made a name for himself Zaku is by no means an ordinary swordsman. Surrounded by an air of mystery he has found himself in the arms of many women all of whom he had rejected almost immediately preferring the singles life to any sort of romance. Jiro and Zaku were hired by many Valm lords including a Dynast at one point on the western coast of Valm. After finding little interesting work in Valm it was Zaku's idea to go find jobs in another land. Zaku distinguished himself by easily defeating a barbarian war chief and a Feroxi knight during his time there. However his life changed when he happened across a young lady named Isabelle when he and his friend Jiro saved her from a group of assassins much to his own protest. Worse yet Jiro agreed to take her in after some time. The group became a company shortly after taking on a name as the Garnet Armbands which Zaku felt was amusing as Jiro had told him that they weren't going to take on a name before meeting Isabelle. The next two years would have Isabelle and Zaku clashing over almost everything as the cheery young girl annoyed the myrmidon to no end. Weapons: Custom made Silver Sword with ornate hand and grip and a silver pommel (Named Sangue Bevitore or Blood Drinker) Items: None

Isabelle The Cleric

Name: Isabelle Age: 18 Gender: Female Class: Cleric Home country: Ylisse Appearance: Isabelle is a young thin girl whom wears a fancy yet elegant robe of green color. She wears her armband around her left leg. She has curly platinum blonde hair that is shortly cut. Her dress is hexed to prevent dirt from clinging to it when in direct sunlight. She has gorgeous, crystal clear blue eyes. She wears a pair of simple shoes and stockings. She has been known to dress in simpler garb at times but prefers to wear her dress at all times. Personality: Isabelle is a cheerful and sarcastic young girl whom has a fondness for romance. Though she has been known to flirt with people it's only with people she knows personally and it is usually in a joking manner. She loves messing with people with off handed jokes and has been known to make light of people while keeping a completely serious tone. She is hardly ever shy and speaks her mind openly only keeping her mouth shut when Jiro tells her too to do or whenever she feels it's not right to. She is also known to be undying loyal to Jiro and Zaku despite the disagreements with the latter. She loves nature and she especially loves nearly all animals no matter how they look except vermin and bugs. She doesn't like blood but she has no problem with it and happily offers her services as a cleric to anyone who asks for it. When upset she hides it away behind jokes. When angered she shuts herself away from others, except Zaku for some odd reason, and when in combat she tends to be straight forward and composed except when she's alone in which case she tends to hide away due to her lack of actual combat prowess more so than any sense of actual cowardice though she has been known to be a coward at times. Backstory: Isabelle like her companion Zaku refuses to answer any questions relating to her life before meeting Jiro but is more open in saying that she was the cleric in training under a lord whom was known to be angry often. He was going to send her to war to fight for Ylisse which caused her to run away from the castle. It was only a week before she met Zaku and Jiro that she ran away from her home. In truth she decided to go with the duo on a whim and to protect herself from harm. She became the heart of the group often chastising them and cleaning their clothes for them despite protests that she wasn't their mother and that she should make them do it. She also makes them food even when Zaku offers to do it saying she doesn't trust them with cooking an egg let alone a whole meal. She has been with them for four and has grown very close to the older gentlemen despite finding them to be brutish at times. Weapons: Mend Staff Items: Vulnerary

Bleach - Twilight of Humanity

The pilot of the ship suddenly over a speak and he spoke with a clear masculine voice and prompted everyone on board the ship to sit down in the nearest seat and buckle themselves in as they were landing soon. It wasn't something Terry had expected to happen so soon but it seemed no one else on the jet was willing to bring up a conversation so it was a short trip. "Well then...this is....interesting..." Terry muttered as he wondered why exactly they had so few people on this plane. "I thought there would be more...I guess I was wrong." grumbled the former priest as he waited for the plane to land. As they descended Terry breathed in calmly and looked at the city that was coming into view closer and closer by the second. He never enjoyed flying, being a low income family boy he had little reason to like it. Regardless of his personal thoughts on the matter Terry grinned widely as the pilot of the jet plane called out once more, "Thank you for flying on our plane! Please proceed out of the console and follow the man in the bright blue suit. I hope you enjoyed the flight." The pilot said with a obviously fake sincere tone. Terry got up almost immediately once the plane landed safely and told the plane's attendant that he didn't bring anything with him aside from his clothes and his small travel bag. With that Terry got up and left the plane before going outside and immediately looked out onto the horizon. "I've seen pictures of this place....Isn't this Las Vegas, Nevada? Interesting..." Terry grinned widely as he chuckled deeply. "I may actually need this after all." Terry grasped at his cross and held it steady and tightly. "Oh I am looking forward to meeting whoever this is indeed!" Terry stated to himself as he looked onto the bright city lights around him. In the dark...it was almost like a city of angels....a city of angels bent on sin and vice.... As Terry looked back to the plane and noticed the kid from the plane and the girl were coming out of the plane. "Well I hope you enjoyed the ride lads we have a journey ahead of us I'd be guessin'." Terry said with a calm plainness but tried not to be overly serious. "You know where we are r-" Terry said with a grin as suddenly a long haired blonde boy with dirty clothes, the boy whom was sleeping on the plane behind the girl, threw himself out of the plane's exit entrance like some sort of acrobat (with much less finesse) and landed on the ground with a loud and very audible thump and send a small wave of air blowing around him causing Terry's coat to flap wildly, "Hey! It looks like we're finally on the ground! Yeah man!" said the rowdy young man, Terry estimated by the boy's voice that he was from the western half of Europe and that he was also younger than himself. Maybe fresh out of high school if that. "Man this city looks A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! What do you think old man!?" the boy asked Terry whom looked at the boy with indifference, "I am barely older than you by the looks of it my friend and I don't believe I met you on the plane...who are you?" Terry asked as the boy shrugged, "You didn't meet me because I was asleep. I get really bored when nothing happens and I only wake up when stuff get's exciting." the boy said with a cheerful smile at which Terry raised an eye at, "And your name?" Terry repeated as the boy gave him a big thumbs up displaying his biker gloves with pride, "I'm Lambert Dumont my big friend! I'm here to reply to that message I got personally!" Lambert was a surprisingly mild name for a person this hyper. "It seems things just got a little more livelier Lambert. It is....nice to meet your acquaintance. I'm Terry and I'm from Southern Ireland." Terry introduced himself to Lambert who gripped his hand firmly and gave him a huge huge which made Terry feel like this kid was made of god damn steel, "WELL thanks for being so kind man! I'm not used to people being so nice to me." Lambert said gleefully at which Terry idly patted his back awkwardly.

The group became a company shortly after taking on a name as the Garnet Armbands which Zaku felt was amusing as Jiro had told him that they weren't going to take on a name before meeting Isabelle. The next two years would have Isabelle and Zaku clashing over almost everything as the cheery young girl annoyed the myrmidon to no end.

Isabelle The Cleric

Name: Isabelle Age: 18 Gender: Female Class: Cleric Home country: Ylisse Appearance: Isabelle is a young thin girl who wears a fancy yet elegant robe of green color. She wears her armband, strangely enough, around her left leg. She has curly platinum blonde hair that is shortly cut. Her dress is hexed to prevent dirt from clinging to it when in direct sunlight. She has gorgeous, crystal clear blue eyes. She wears a pair of simple shoes and stockings. She has been known to dress in simpler garb at times but prefers to wear her dress at all times. Personality: Isabelle is a cheerful and sarcastic young girl whom has a fondness for romance. Though she has been known to flirt with people it's only with people she knows personally and it is usually in a joking manner. She loves messing with people with off handed jokes and has been known to make light of people while keeping a completely serious tone. She is hardly ever shy and speaks her mind openly only keeping her mouth shut when Jiro tells her too to do or whenever she feels it's not right to. She is also known to be undying loyal to Jiro and Zaku despite the disagreements with the latter. She loves nature and she especially loves nearly all animals no matter how they look except vermin and bugs. She doesn't like blood but she has no problem with it and happily offers her services as a cleric to anyone who asks for it. When upset she hides it away behind jokes. When angered she shuts herself away from others, except Zaku for some odd reason, and when in combat she tends to be straight forward and composed except when she's alone in which case she tends to hide away due to her lack of actual combat prowess more so than any sense of actual cowardice though she has been known to be a coward at times. Backstory: Isabelle like her companion Zaku refuses to answer any questions relating to her life before meeting Jiro but is more open in saying that she was the cleric in training under a lord whom was known to be angry often. He was going to send her to war to fight for Ylisse which caused her to run away from the castle. It was only a week before she met Zaku and Jiro that she ran away from her home. In truth she decided to go with the duo on a whim and to protect herself from harm. She became the heart of the group often chastising them and cleaning their clothes for them despite protests that she wasn't their mother and that she should make them do it. She also makes them food even when Zaku offers to do it saying she doesn't trust them with cooking an egg let alone a whole meal. She has been with them for four and has grown very close to the older gentlemen despite finding them to be brutish at times. Weapons: Mend Staff Items: Vulnerary

Fire Emblem - The Crisis of Akaneia

It has been three years now since the Holy War involving the Plegia Theocracy went to war with the country of Ylisse in a bloody stalemate that saw the shattering of Plegia into different states ruled by high priests or kings. The kingdom of ylisse is slowly starting the progress of reconstructing buildings and villages that were destroyed during the war and go about mourning the loss of life. It had been a hard life for the children especially since then but the new Exalt Emmeryn, a girl of only about twelve years of age, has been throwing all of her efforts behind rebuilding the land despite this however she is still unpopular due in no small part to the Exalted King's failures and of course the aforementioned Holy War. Despite this Emmeryn stands stalwart alongside her advisers in her efforts to rebuild not only Ylisse but bordering Plegian countries as well. However most efforts still are being pooled from debts owed by the Khan of Regna Ferox and the process will take more than just a couple of years to completely fix. Emmeryn however hoping to restore hope to her people has decided to spend a small amount of money to fund a festival to uplift the local peasantry and nobles alike despite protests from her great uncle. The festival will be placed in a small town just south of the capital and all people are welcomed to the festival even Plegians though it was not announced that this was specifically a drawing point. A small group of Pegasus Knights were also dispatched to help keep order alongside some of the soldiers but it seems that they are uninterested in their duty as they have barely gotten involved since the Festival officially started. It is in the afternoon now about 2:50 and the sun is shining down upon the world as if it were blessed by Naga. Monks, mercenaries, merchants, and others have also joined along unexpectedly to add to the peasantry crowding the small town. The mood is somber but still somewhat jovial as people drink and eat food brought from farmers by Emmeryn's own coffers and some of it was donated by a wealthy noble seeking to get in good graces with the Exalt. The Circus was set up at the eastern part of the city in the middle of a small park and were opened almost immediately after they arrived and got set up properly about two hours earlier. Among them is a group of dancers, a wyvern rider whom performs tricks with his steed, and an acrobatic trickster. The western and central parts of the city holds many people as that is where the main setting of the festival is located at with stalls, and artisans selling goods alongside people running various events such as drinking contests. The southern and northern sections of the city are populated by the more rowdy festival goers as the taverns and melees are located there where men of war spar and the young excited children watch mercenaries, and even a few of the Pegasus knights,  fight in duels for the enjoyment of the crowd. It is in the central part of the city where Jiro and Zaku of the Garnet Armbands are strolling around looking at the various stalls much to Zaku's distaste. They had let the third member of their company run around another part of the city at her leisure knowing that she'd come running to find them the moment she inevitably ran into trouble. Jiro had a mug of wine in his hand and was walking next to Zaku as the two men strolled alongside each other walking down the street, "You know drinking is just going to prove problematic Jiro sir why do you always insist on doing this whenever we hit somewhere where there is some sort of event going on?" Zaku commented dourly as he sighed. He was hardly the one for events such as these. Back in Valm he had always chosen to stick to quieter areas where he could hear himself think. Jiro simply continued to smile and took a large gulp of the wine just to spite his friend. "Because it's a freaking party kid you got to live a little! You know at least Isabelle is having fun all your doing is clinging to me like a lost little school boy. What are you afraid you'll be lost in the crowd Zaku?" Jiro said razzing his friend as Zaku chuckled to himself and stuck a sideways glance to his companion, "No I'm more worried that you'll fall in the creek nearby or get yourself into a fight. I'm not going to go back to Valm dragging the fool with me. She'd be the end of me I swear. So yes I am clinging to you because I know you Jiro and I know you like a good fight and being drunk we'll inevitably find that along the way." Zaku said in a casual tone as Jiro belched and laughed, "It's been a couple years now kid I'd have thought you'd have gotten use to Isabelle by now. She's pulled us both out of the fire with that mending skill of hers. If it wasn't for her we'd be covered in more scars than a brigand." Jiro said loudly and patted his friend on the back as onlookers gave them side ways glances. Not one person really spoke up about the duo though...more than likely because one was carrying a two handed iron blade, and the other had a fine looking sword strapped to his hip.

Fire Emblem - The Crisis of Akaneia

It has been three years since the holy war brought forth by the father of Emmeyn, The Exalt King Norman of the Kingdom of Ylisse, came to an end and the countries of Ylisse and Plegia begin the slow process of rehabilitation. King Norman was killed by a enemy sniper named Kyle whom was a renown hero among the Plegian faithful. What happened to the man is unknown but his actions were what would cause the war to come to an end. Emmeryn, at the beckoning of her advisers and her great uncle General Neal of Ylisse, decided to open up peace talks with the exhausted Plegians and managed to dictate a state of peace between the two nations. While Ylisse pulled back it's armies from the withered husk called Plegia, Emmeryn would work to restore peace in the nation and most of her people blame her unjustly for Norman's religious zeal that spurred him to war. The people have been drastically reduced in number as many did not come home from the campaign unleashed by the late Exalt. However thanks to contacts in Regna Ferox they are starting to rebuild and life is starting to return to some shambled state of order despite the brigands whom travel from place to place to pillage the commoners. Plegia would be divided into four different nations all claiming to be the true Plegia however they are no currently in the midst of fighting one another more so they are trying to rebuild properly after losing so many people too the war. Plegia's people suffer from food shortages and lack of clean water but due to the merchant princes of Valm they are able to negotiate contracts to keep their dying economy stable. Regna Ferox itself has been under the control of Khan Nicholas whom rules it with a firm but progressive fist from his castle in the middle of Ferox. He keep the lords in check and bandits are a rare sight in the land as Ferox has made a large profit from staying neutral or selling themselves off as soldiers in the war. They are in no hurry to annex the broken lands of Plegia and Ylisse and are content to quarrel among themselves as they tend to. It is now where our story takes place. In the country of Ylisse a harvest festival is happening just south of the capital of the kingdom. Many peasants are gathering here to forget the hardships of the years gone by and look forward to an new tomorrow. It was by the grace of Emmeryn that this festival was made and she insists that all those who can make it should do so but she will not be able to come herself stating that the land is too unstable to leave the capital. The city in which we make our start possible is a rather fairly sized city one cannot call it huge not small but it's population is a friendly group and much to the surprise of the locals the festival has attracted many people and different groups including a group of traveling monks and circus performers.

You need to at least be in a noble family that has some standing in Ylisse, Ferox, Valm, or the shattered remains of Plegia.
