Favorite Fate Character Poll [Possible Spoilers]
CatskillEagle replied to Iron Griffin's topic in Fire Emblem Fates
I think Leo has the most votes of any male, shared or route exclusive? Come on, Takumi.... 4 points away! :) -
Which sibling counterpart do you prefer?
CatskillEagle replied to Dolphin's topic in Fire Emblem Fates
Xander > Ryouma Camilla > Hinoka Leo and Takumi are tied. Little sisters are tied for me. -
http://pastebin.com/Dw3Fr917 Elfie and Marx's support line. One part in their A-support is very haunting if Chills. I personally thought it was a great conclusion.
-
I really didn't know how to feel about Marx and Pieri's support. Putting their S-support aside, I don't understand really why he picked her as a subordinate from the context of the support--she was strong I guess? They seem to have major compatibility issues--Marx is very kind, and Pieri is psychotic-violent. It seems unusual that someone like her would be in his train.

I never find it old, if that means anything. xDD

Hoshidan endgame spoilers -
Yeah I want to know this myself. Edit: Also is class skill inheritance back? For example, if I level Marx/Xander through Paladin and got Aegis, would he pass down Aegis to Siegbert?
-
I wish we could vote for multiple men, I would also vote Leon as well as Lazward and Jakob. Proxy voting. Quit devious...

There's a poll being held on /r/fireemblem right now about your favorite male character, so go ahead and have fun! (No pressure but we gotta rally for our boy): http://vote.pollcode.com/92625248

THIS IS GLORIOUS JUST LISTENED TO THE AUDIO FOR THE FIRST TIME KILL IT KILL IT WITH FIRE

Yes! I provided a rough translation of that convo a couple of pages ago, if you wanted to read it. :)
-
A little off topic, but can anyone point me in the direction of an explanation as to how stat boosters work in Fates? I heard they were quite different this time.
-
Aww, poor thing. Which Support did you read that in? He referenced it in his Siegbert support, I was wondering where else I could read about it. ANOTHER fun fact: According to the Museum in My Castle, Marx has the prettiest handwriting of anyone in the camp. Plus his birthday is October 27th. Mark your calendars! :P

It should also be noted that royals don't really follow the same customs most people do, nor live even remotely the same kind of life. What's proper or not proper is a totally different set of rules, regardless of how we think about it. It was also not uncommon for royal "visitors"/hostages to be betrothed or even married to someone in the family in order to keep the rival country from taking action. If Kamui didn't have to be ambiguous enough to be a self-insert I could see that being a potentially interesting plot development. That's interesting about the practices of Japanese feudal times, as well as the U.S. laws. Ultimately, I don't really care. If they're both happy, and their kids will be fine, then it doesn't bother me that much. They're just fictional characters. xD

I've only seen parts of Nohr route but what I noticed is that Marx seems to be a very strong unit. Marx/Xander has an insane Luck growth (60% growth), which I think contributes to his critical hit rates. On Maurice's Nohr stream, apparently he was a total Crit-monster. Bonus: he and Leon have complementary skills (Marx does extra damage and has extra hit when the enemy has full HP, and Leon does extra damage/has extra hit). However, he does have a speed issue (35% growth), so I AM hoping for a couple of stat-boosters---how do they work in this game?--to buff his speed. Hopefully Siegfried gets an upgrade as well. Regardless, he seemed very viable throughout Maurice's run and was consistently one of the best units. On Hoshido, Kazahana/Hana seemed to have a very OP personal skill. I would definitely use her.

EDIT: Heading into head canon territory here. Spoilers of various sorts below. I marked the most important spoilers but there are some spoilers from the footage shown at Nintendo Treehouse's E3 demonstration. To answer scarlett’s question partially, here’s what I’m thinking with my somewhat limited amount of knowledge. Caveat: I'll have to get confirmation on some details and play the entire game before I form a real opinion. In my view, Marx has always suspected that you weren’t his sibling. First, I’m assuming he would have noticed your manakete ears. Also, you don’t resemble any of your siblings. Even I think Camilla, lacking the blonde hair color, at least resembles the others in her face. I think and Elise share similar eye colors. Moreover, Marx likely remembers how his other siblings entered his life. If my sources are right, Marx was the only child born of the queen of Nohr , while the other children were all born of individual concubines and fostered in the royal household. Marx had to be aware of these concubines and familiar with Garon’s routine as the king was clearly fond of them well into middle age (uck). Even Elise was born from one. Now take Kamui, who doesn’t show up as a baby like the other siblings do. She comes to the castle when Garon returns from war, clearly traumatized and frightened. She presumably doesn’t get any of the same grandeur or celebrations that the other four probably received upon their birth. Not only that, but she is forced into seclusion and confined into a castle, while the other siblings are provided freer roam. Garon also demonstrates an extreme dislike for her, as we saw in the Nintendo Treehouse stream. Marx would have certainly noticed these bizarre behaviors and concluded that something was different about her. She’s not typical Nohrian royalty. He might have decided to care for her like any other sibling, but he would have been conscious that she was different. I think when Garon says in his evil soliloquy during the Treehouse stream that he wants to kill Kamui, Marx says something to the effect of, “I knew it/I suspected this.” He has always had a sense that Kamui represents a kind of threat to Garon, as well as some valuable asset or else he wouldn’t be keeping her around. Of course, he never received confirmation whether she was related or not, so he might have felt uncertain about the matter. When he finds out that she isn't his blood sister, he says literally, "I have peace of mind now." While this sentence does have romantic motivations, it can also be rooted in the idea that his uncertainty has finally been resolved, and what he has suspected all along was confirmed. I also get the impression from their supports and Amie conversations that the two of them have a bit of a history together anyway, but still trying to suss out how this may work.

Also here's a pic of his amie model, just look at that smirk. All the other guys are here as well! Beside Marx, I'm partial to Kaze. :) http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/985/084/854.jpg

No problem everyone! Looking forward to getting a support log here going. :D

We should start posting good Marx supports within this thread so we can find them all in one place! They're kind of scattered over the internet. I'll start! In this post I'll post my Marx and Siegbert conversation as well as the full Marx and Kamui support. Additionally, I have the Marx x Charlotte support. Charlotte's really growing on me in a way I didn't even expect (her design is still terrible, but she's amazingly written). Marx and F!Kamui full C-S support, enjoy! C-A was not translated by me, however. First, thanks to the anon that did those supports. Secondly, thanks scarlett_94 for helping me clean up my S-support and make it sound more romantic. C-support B-support [ A-support REVISED S-SUPPORT Marx x Charlotte Supports (C-S Supports) Marx and Siegbert C-A Supports I did a pretty rough translation and also added some bits to make the dialogue flow and bring out the meaning of what they're saying. C-support: B-support A-support:
-
I think you're right. I translated Siegbert and Marx's support convos and his inferiority complex is very pronounced. He kind of has a tiny meltdown in his B-support. xD My poor son!
-
[deleted, waiting for a better translator as I edit the support].
-
PSA: I'm not reading this thread anymore to avoid spoilers, but I did want to announce that I (very, very roughly) translated the Marx and F!Kamui's S-support. It can be found over at the skin-shipping and Support conversations thread.
-
AWFUL ROUGH TRANSLATION DONE BY MYSELF. I TRIED MY BEST AND HERE WE GO: MARX AND FEMALE KAMUI'S S-SUPPORT.

Thank you!
