I really want canon haired Soleil but I have no clue who to pair her up with to get pink hair besides the female avatar but I don't think I'll enjoy playing through Conquest/Revelations with a pink haired Kamui. pls help

So after reading the info on how the support conversations actually work... Characters gain support points once per turn if adjacent to each other, and need 240 points to reach A support from 0 points... Which means that if I want to see Bartre x Renault A supp, they have to spend 240 turns next to each other. Given that Renault joints at a point where there's something like 40 turns left before the end of the game in normal gameplay conditions, isnt that a bit excessive? In that case, the support system actually encourages the player to stall their victory and spend turns just...waiting? Or is there something I missed in the support system? I'd like to hear other opinions on this!

Over a long period of mix and matching I think I have finally come up with a decent fire emblem fates pairing list. This list will be based on solely competitive optimization of the children's stat mods and their end classes. I will explain each pairing and state the class I plan on ending the child as. The chosen parent with be on the right while the child's name will be on the left, i.e Kaze!Shigure. Any advice and suggestions are greatly appreciated as I am not 100% sure of these pairings and would like to hear some of your input. Kaze!Shigure - Kaze has been chosen as the father of shigure because of the insane +7 spd and +4 skill mods that Shigure ends with. He does have -1 str and -3 def but the strength isn't that significant and the defense is covered by the insane speed that Shigure will cap at. I will probably end him as either a master ninja or a swordsmaster if he gets a+ in support with hisame. Azura!Midori - Midori is pretty much an identical twin to Shigure stat wise and has pretty much the same reasoning as Shigure, but she will probably be ended as a master ninja since her speed stat amazingly complements the class's naturally high speed stat. She'll also be a possible candidate of the Awakening skill but i'm not sure of which female child I should give it to as of yet. Setsuna!Dywer -N/A Peri!Soleil - N/A Oboro!Sophie - Kagero!Shiro - Makes a great spear master with a +5 str mod, +2 skl and +1 spd, only bad side is -2 def but spear masters are naturally bulky. Mozu!Kiragi - Makes a great sniper with +5 skl, +2 str and +1 def along with the fact that it makes takumi's neg spd mod neutral. Sakura!Asugi - N/A Hana!Selkie - Hana gives selkie the samurai tree along with +3 str, +5 spd and +4 res which makes an exceptional swordsmaster or nine-tails. Drawbacks are the -1 skl and -4 def but it's all mitigated by the beastone and the amazing spd stat. Selena!Hisame - Hinoka!Mitama - N/A Rinkah!Caeldori - Someone had to take the rinkah and the irony lies in rinkah ruining children's perfection. Ending her as subaki's wife is only fitting along with the fact that subaki is the only one that doesn't completely get butchered by rinkah's bad mods. She leaves caeldori with +1 skl and + 6 def with -1 str which is acceptable but the classes she provides are hot garbage, literally! I'll prob marry her to Ignatius for her to get the knight tree and prob end her as a general or great knight so that she can ride Ignatius to victory! Orochi!Rhajat - N/A Charlotte!Siegbert - Charlotte makes this kid a complete savage with +6 str and +2 spd and her -2 def is neutralized by xander's +2 def. Many say that he's good as a paladin while others say to make him a hero, not so sure myself, but boy does he have a lot of great classes to choose from! Felicia!Forrest - N/A Beruka!Ignatius - Apparently best mother for ignatius and I can see why with the +3 skl, +6 def and +1 res. Prob best general in the game. Camilla!Velouria - Great +5 str, +1 spd and +4 def for a wolfssenger and also makes vel have cute purple hair. Effie!Percy - N/A Elise!Ophelia - Ophelia gets +5 mag,+1 spd and +1 res but an unfortunate -2 def. However, the low defense doesn't stop her from becoming a crit machine. She will prob be ended as a witch since witch's have higher speed caps then sorcs. I also am debating whether to use the exalt's brand on her to give her awakening because of the insane possible crit rate I can get her at with the +30 from awakening and +10 from her personal skill, slap on gamble, death blow and a mjolnir and you have a near 100% crit rate. Nyx!Nina - N/A Nina!Kana - Kana has many possible parents and routes so this is the pairing that i'm mostly unsure about. Since my Male Avatar has a +mag boon and -lck bane, I decided to build her as a speedy mage. However, i'm not sure if this is the right way to go since this makes kana a 100% better version of nina and the fact that I can literally make kana into anything I want depending on the parent, which I am unsure of what class I really would need since I have already so many good kids. So I decided to make kana my best mage by giving her nina as her mom. Nina gives her an end total of +7 mag, +8 spd and +5 res. However, she gets -2 skl and -1 def. She also gets -3 lck which is rather unfortunate. The -2 skl is still bugging me but it's worth the sacrifice imo. I debated on givng her ophelia as a mom but the +8 spd is too good to pass up. I mostly want to hear your thoughts on what you would make a +mag/-lck kana and what parent you would give her as well as your thoughts on the other kids parents and end classes as well as suggestions for possible better pairing setups. Also, I used an inheritance planner to see my mods and possible other options so if there are any errors I made please do point them out. For those of you who also plan on optimizing children here is the planner I used https://inheritance-planner.herokuapp.com/ .

I don't see a "General Echoes Discussion" thread, so I figured I'd just make a new thread. I really like Palla in Echoes. She suffered as most of the Marthland units, apart from like 5 or so, from Shadow Dragon did in having very little character development, so she was pretty much just slower stronger Catria. As the oldest, I see a lot of myself in her and can sort of relates to the sister dynamic the Whitewings have. I'm also glad that Est gets a lot more development; my like for her was originally mostly from liking the Est archetype in general, but I'm liking her here as well. They went and made Catria a killjoy for whatever reason, though. Although, I guess that's true to life, in my family anyway. Middlish sibling/cousin admonishing younger one without much tact and without regard to timing; Me/elder: eyeroll. My only complaint is I wish they had some more support convos, maybe each sister getting a Valentia buddy to talk to each. Only supporting with their sisters makes them feel more insular. Although that seems the problem with a lot of units, not even supporting with units you'd think they would. Clive and Clair can't support, why?

Thanks to the dataleak, the support lists have been leaked and are right here. Supports are GBA-styled, so they will be occurring in battle and each character is limited to certain characters. In the original Gaiden, you didn't know if characters had a special relationship until the end, and while these endings seem to be in place, they've also added some more relationships between characters. Note: Some characters have 1 support partner total, so I wonder how much they're going to be included in base conversations to make up for this. Personally, I'm most interested in: Mae x anyone, since she's cheeky. Clair x Lukas + Delthea, since I wasn't expecting those. Jesse x Silque (how?) + Saber + Deen Genny x Sonya The Meme Team (you know who) Zeke x Tatiana Celica x Masked Knight I'm surprised there's no Clair x Tobin support, and no Saber x Genny support (but that could be because of their ages)

Background: I am adding 4 new characters to vanilla Fire Emblem 7 and am replacing Citizen characters at (0xCE, 0xD3, 0xD5, and 0xD6 - I don't think these are used characters.). Of course these characters need supports as without them they are empty shells; therefore, I am repointing the Support Convo Availability Editor, Support Compatibility Editor, and the Support Ending Editor. Question on Support Ending Editor: I noticed the Support Ending Editor has slots for Eliwood Mode Ending and Hector Mode Ending and they are separated by two NOT TO BE EDITED. In order to add ending for these 4 characters, do I need to add similar ending to both Eliwood Mode and Hector Mode? When I increase the number of Support Endings Available, do I need to offset the entirety of Hector Mode Endings as well as the NOT TO BE EDITED to squeeze in these character endings for Eliwood Mode? Do I need to insert the new character ending before the two NOT TO BE EDITED? Confirming Steps on Process: Also, I am trying to list out everything that needs to be repointed to get these characters functioning in game. Can anyone think of anything else that needs to be repointed to get these 4 characters working?

Let's try this again... Vote for your favorite support system from Fire Emblem! Whether it's the GBA titles where everyone has to stay next to each other and talk thus wasting a turn or Path of Radiance where the two characters can just go their own way but still support so long as they were deployed on the same map. I'm honestly not sure what kinda of support system the first two games have (if any), but I added them just for the sake of... continuity? I know a few of them, such as said GBA titles, have the exact or close to the same system, so multi-choice is enabled this time around. Or you can just choose the one from the game you like more. :) Personal favorite: Path of Radiance. I like being able to have my units run around away from each other yet still be able to support with one another after the battle (assuming they survive). The supports in this way are a bit more story-oriented, but not by much. Heh, the normal base conversations are probably better, tbh. XD

Mild spoilers for FE13 and FE14 ahead Hi all! So I have had a Revelations file planned for a while now, in which I pair couples based on the colours the mother will pass down to her child to get the closest to the official sprites as I can. Official sprites (as used on Twitter) compiled here This poses some immediate challenges. Some children could use the same mother for the closest hairstyle. My choice? The characters with the most hair or the most plot significance (i.e. Heirs of Fates or Awakening references) will get precedence over non-plot relevant children. For example, this would imply that Soleil wins Felicia's hair colour over Miitama as Soleil's hair references Olivia. There are some highly sought after hair colours (i.e. blonde) that we just don't have enough units for or colours that are rare/inaccessible. So I will be using a female Avatar to wed one lucky guy - though I'm undecided on who. This is where you come in! Below is a list of chosen pairings that create near-canon hair colours for the children. Midori - Kaze x Setsuna (closest to green) Asugi - Saizo x Sakura (commonly paired for near-orange hair) Caeldori - Subaki x Selena (implied as Caeldori's 'canon' mother) Siegbert - Xander x Charlotte (Siegbert is an Heir of Fate. Charlotte provides a near ideal blonde.) Soleil - Laslow x Felicia (Priority over Miitama as reference to Awakening) Ophelia - Odin x Elise (provides same shade of hair as Odin) Shiro - Ryoma x Mozu (Mozu's hair is darker and thus closer to Shiro's canon shade than her other contender, Kagero) Rhajat - Hayato x Nyx (Black hair that references Tharja in Awakening) Miitama - Azama x Rinkah (White is closest to her sherbet pink) Kiragi - Takumi x Hana (Closest to Takumi's hair colour) Hisame - Hinata x Kagerou (slightly lighter brown is closest to Hisame after Hana) Dwyer - Jakob x Effie (Silver hair is close to Dwyer's grey) Unsure: Sophie - Silas x Beruka? Selkie - Kaden x Hinoka? Percy - Arthur x ??? Nina - Niles x Azura? Forrest - Leo x ??? Ignatius - Benny x ??? Velouria - Keaton x ??? Please post your feedback and suggestions below! All suggestions for couples will be considered, even the "established" ones! Let's canonize!

Two aspiring writers and friends of mine recently put together a 40 minute review for Fire Emblem Fates Birthright, Conquest and (part of) Revelation, only recently released in the UK. They discuss the new features that help improve the "Awakening" formula, others they aren't so fussed about, and the character writing that made the all important decision so difficult for them. Hope you enjoy! https://youtu.be/-bpqjAsbXEg?t=28m45s

Hey everyone, The other day I was trying to figure out how exactly I wanted to use my Friendship Seals in the most optimal way possible... So I ended up doing a whole lot of research and decided to made a chart with all the characters, their possible A+ supports and the classes and skills they would gain from said supports. Since I thought it would be a waste to keep it to myself, I decided to share it with you all. Here is the result: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1EoYvI1FUNqaHhSd1pzUFJNSmc/view?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-kX2rTu6-3jF-6EDm8T7YXQ In addition to the gained classes and skills, I also listed the support bonuses that would be gained during battle. Keep in mind that for the Guard Stance bonuses, only the bonuses gained through support are listed and not the class and stats specific bonuses. Also, because the support bonuses of the children depend on the parents they are only partially listed. -> Only the inherited part of the father is set. (or the mother in case of Sigure or the male Kana) I think this chart provides a nice overview of several important factors, which can assist you in your final decision of who to give that seal to. Here is a quick recap of the inner workings of the Friendship Seals: Friendship Seals are used between two characters of the same sex that can support with eachother, in order to gain the base class of the supporting unit in question, or a secondary class if the base class is already known to the supported unit. Special classes can not be gained in this way. (but you gain a secondary or tertiary class instead) In contrast to the Partner Seal, the Friendship seal doesn't work in both ways. This means that Unit A can have an A+ support with B, but unit B can have an A+ support with another unit than A. The Avatar is special when it comes to Friendship Seals, since he can't gain an A+ support, but he can gain every unit's (of the same sex) base class instead. Because of this the avatar in not listed in the chart. Special thanks to serenesforest.net for the information needed, and spriters-resource.com for the used sprites. I hope this chart will prove somewhat useful to you guys! Update: My Partner Seal Chart is live now! Click here to see it. P.S. Feel free to point out the mistakes or errors I made, there is bound to be a copy-paste mistake somewhere. I also debated whether or not to post this chart under a new topic or in the "Topic of Marriage, Supports, and Children"-thread. I opted for a new one, let me know if was mistaken in my judgment.

Some characters just rub you the wrong way at first, and you just think they're a simple joke or stereotype. But then they do or say something that makes you see them in a new light. Mine was Arthur. I thought he was the average superhero guy who sucks at his job. I still liked him no problem, but earlier today I was looking through his Support conversations in the Japanese version of the game, and was shocked to discover one of his talks with Effie. To summarize, he asked how was Effie a better retainer than him. She responded something akin to "because Elise was my friend before I was her retainer." The next conversation was a followup answer to Arthur's question, saying that he was "too fickle". He responded by saying that it's simply how he is; he helps people in need, not simply Elise. Effie responded with saying that kind of attitude is just fine. I thought he was doing it simply for the possible fame and accolation, but it was simply because of how much of a good person he is. From what I understand, they flanderized him in the official translation, which is unfortunate. But I'll always respect Arthur for the man he was supposed to be.

Alrighty then... I am looking to create the ultimate Guard-Stance Support unit for SCIENCE and could use some advice, namely on which character and skill combination would be optimal. I am quite keen on taking advantage of Nohrian Trust, though I am aware that this limits the unit to supporting Avatar or Kana in order to make the most of the unit. So far I have in mind Kaze with Miraculous Save, Lethality, Astra and Aegis (as he can get these regardless of who he S-Supports via his own classes + friendship with Silas) with the last two skills undecided. Now on to the questions at hand... 1: Is there another character I am completely looking over that has a better leap-off point for making into this kind of unit? 2: Who would you guys recommend I marry Kaze / alternative character to grand the best pool of skills without completely gimping the child unit of said pairing? 3: Is it worth using up a skill slot on Replicate for this unit since they are going to be a support-bot anyway. I know that the lead of the Replica would also require Nhorian Trust to make the most of the support - but having 2x Support-bots for a single skill slot seems worth it and would also sidestep the admittedly small weakness of Replica's shared damage (as both units would be Supporting units).

So I'm a bit confused about something. It might be a spoiler, so consider that your warning. Lots of people mention Mikoto's letter to the Hoshidan royal children when Corrin gets an S Support with them as the way we find out they aren't actually related. It's a revelation, a secret finally revealed, and that's how it's treated. ...Except for one thing. In Corrin and Hinoka's B Support, Hinoka says Mikoto tried to talk her out of being a Sky Knight, referring to her as "your mother", as if it were common knowledge that Mikoto is only Corrin's mother. Corrin then says "Oh, she was worried even though you weren't related?", reaffirming the common knowledge point. My question is: was that mentioned at some point in the Birthright story? I don't remember it, yet they treat it as if it were already known. Why'd Nintendo call the Hoshidan siblings your brothers and sisters by blood in the advertising, and then just so casually mention the fact that that isn't true in that support?

So i have one question...i have been hearing that platonic s-supports are back...is that true guys?

Hi everyone! I've treaded on Serene's Forest for a long time, but I just recently made an account and will now make my first post! I need help with my Birthright pairings, I have confidence in some, while others I feel are just leftover characters matched together. Any type of criticism is welcome, as long as it is justified. So let's cut to the chase: MU(Male)xScarlet SakuraxHayato RyomaxKagerou AzuraxKaden SilasxHinoka TakumixOboro (this is where I have low confidence) JakobxOrochi SetsunaxHinata AzamaxHana SaizoxMozu Any and all help is greatly appreciated, and if you took time to look at this and critique it, thank you in advance!

I pre-ordered the special edition of Fates last week. Ever since this game was released in Japan, I have been trying to determine optimal pairings. However, for my first few files, I have no interest at all in 2nd generation units (apart from the extra chapters), yet almost every topic I have found ends up talking about the 2nd gen units. Ignoring the kids and focusing only on the two units (guard stance stat boosts, how quickly they support, etc.), what are the best pairings in Hoshido/Nohr? The pairings I have already determined are the following: Both: Male Corrin x Azura Hoshido: Silas x Hinoka Nohr: Harold x Effie (not entirely sure about this pairing)

The Dragon’s Gate Beckons Support C: A Lofty Introduction Erk: Well, here we are at the Dragon’s Gate, Serra… just like you said. Now remind me why you dragged me all the way over here again. Serra: It’s because you’re my escort, every noblewoman needs an escort and protector through this dark and treacherous world, you know? Erk: The world is fine now that Nergal has been defeated, everyone is calming down and peace has returned to the world. But that doesn’t explain to me why you dragged me away from my studies to go “escort” you when you could have just as easily come here yourself. Serra: Boo, you’re so cold. Don’t you want the honor of going sightseeing with such a cute girl at your right hand? And also, she is a noble, so there’s that perk as well. Besides, I introduced you to Lord Eliwood, and you never thanked me for that, so I am going to make you repay me for your ungratefulness! Erk: *Sigh* I admit, you did introduce me to Lord Eliwood. Nevertheless, you can’t force me to repay you for something like that! Your logic is truly astounding. Sorry, but I’d rather be studying my magic now, alone, in my room. Serra: Hey! Get back here! No way your getting out of it now! We are going through the gate together!! Erk: What?! You’re crazy, woman! The realm of the dragons lies beyond there! Serra: True, but we will never know unless we try! ….Plus, I feel like this thing is calling out to me… Now, come on! Loyal servants first! Erk: Oh, Saint Elimine, have mercy… Wait. You say something…? Serra: … Support B: Land of the Unknown Serra: …Erk? Erk: Yes? Serra: I’m not sure how to say this but, I feel a connection with that gate somehow- like someone is calling out to me. I’m scared but I want to go see what lies beyond. Erk: Hmm… Serra: I want you to know that I chose you, not Oswin or Lord Hector but you. You are the studious mage after all, consider this trip a field study if you will. I am a member of House Ostia, so you’d better listen to my orders… it’s coming from me directly. Erk: …Alright, I shall guard you, Serra. I’ll use my knowledge to protect you then. I’m nowhere near as masterful as Lord Pent, but I’ll do my best. This way, I can further my studies. Serra: Thanks, Erk. I knew I could count on you… Shall we go through then? Erk: Yes, lets. Erk and Serra: …….. (Passes through the gate) Serra: Ahh! We’re falling!! Erk: Serra! I’ll hold you on top! Serra: Erk! Be careful! Erk: Urghaa!! Serra: *Pants heavily* Erk! Errrk! Are you okay!? Please be okay- Maribelle: Hey, Chrom. I think I heard a voice from the forest over there. Let’s proceed with caution. Serra: -Come on! Wake up! Maribelle: Oh gods! Someone is down! Chrom: Everything will be alright. I’ll carry your friend back to HQ. Maribelle? Could you patch him up before we take him back? Maribelle: Sure, darling. Serra: I’ve only got you to trust at the moment… Support A: The Meeting with Royalty Chrom: Well, here we are at Ylisses’ very own Shepherds’ Barracks. You may rest up here as long as you see fit. Maribelle: I’ll go fix a bed for your friend. Serra: Thank you so much you two… I don’t know what I’d do without you… I don’t even know where I am! *sniff* Maribelle: Aww, don’t cry. We’ll take good care of you, don’t you worry. In fact, you look a lot like my darling Lissa, so I’ll take especially good care of a delicate flower like you! Chrom: *Ahem!* Maribelle: Oh! Sorry for my rash behavior. Don’t know what came over me… Chrom: Right… Serra: …. Erk: Urgh… Ahhh… Serra: Erk! You’re awake! Chrom: There are better places to take a nap than on the ground, you know. Maribelle: By the gods, Chrom! Do you have to introduce yourself like this to EVERYONE!? Chrom: It’s only the second person, I don’t see a problem, and Robin was just lying there! He also had amnesia. Maribelle: Right, play the amnesia card on me again, you buffoon… Erk: …This place sure is lively. Oh, Serra! Good to see we weren’t separated. Serra: Hello, Erk. Glad to see you’re OK! These wonderful people carried you over to their barracks and are letting us stay here as long as we want. I hope we are not imposing… Maribelle: Oh, not at all! If you ever want someone to talk to, I’m here. Erk: Thanks for the hospitality. Chrom: Well, I got to get back to my duties. I’ll check back on you lat- Frederick: Milord, I have concocted a brilliant idea to raise morale within our ranks. You see, I had an artisan create posters of you for the new recruits, you have a scale in one hand and a sword in the other but I’m sure the main focus here will be seeing you buck naked! Chrom: HUHH!? F-Frederick! You better not follow through with this! Frederick: Too late. The deed is done. It’s in everyone’s tent as we speak. Chrom: By the gods, Frederick…! I HAVE to get rid of those posters before people see them, or else I’ll be made a mockery as the Shepherds’ leader! Frederick: Hahaha! All is for milord. Now if you’ll excuse me, Lady Maribelle, I am going to make way of some rocks in preparation to our march tomorrow. Maribelle: So that’s why he has a pebble fixation… Well, anyway, I guess I should leave you be for now and let you relax. Toodles! Serra: Wait! Maribelle! Maribelle: Yes? Serra: You have a certain aura about you. Are you… royalty? Maribelle: My, if the parasol didn’t give it away, then yes. I am Maribelle, a noblewoman of Ylisse! Pleasure to make your acquaintance darlings. Erk: I’m Erk, I’m learning magic under my Lord Pent in Etruria. Serra: And I’m Serra, a noblewoman of an Etrurian count’s family! Maribelle: Hang on, you say you’re from Etruria? Both of you? Serra: Yes. Erk: That’s right. Mariabelle: That name exists in our history records only. Then you guys are otherworldly fighters from the Outrealms, no less! The warriors of legend! Serra: Outrealms? All we did was enter through the Dragon’s Gate, soon afterwards we fell from the sky and Erk passed out when we landed. Maribelle: Time travel. This has been the case ever since they have arrived. Chrom has also been recruiting strange warriors as of these last handful of weeks since their arrival as well. Erk: Whose arrival? Maribelle: Risen. Detestable, grotesque creatures of the undead. Serra: Eww! You mean, undead bugs!? As in, INSECTS?! Creepy crawlers of the night?! Erk: No, Serra, she means zummies. Maribelle: Not quite. Zombies, dead people who risen from the dead. Serra: Suddenly, that’s not as bad… Anyway, to change the subject from bugs, can I talk to you Maribelle, you know, noble to noble? Maribelle: Sure. We can go to my tent if you like. Serra: Yeah, that’ll be good. I trust you’ll be fine Erk? Erk: Yeah, I got a tome with me. I can study while you are out. Serra: Ok, be safe my protector, I’ll need you later! Support S: Life in a New Light Maribelle: Ah. Here we are. My humble abode. Serra: Small, but nice. Maribelle: What do you want to talk about? Serra: Well, I want to know how to act more like a noble, since you are one yourself maybe I could get some advice. You know, how do I get loyal vassals to obey my every command! I always force Erk to escort me everywhere so I got that part down but I feel like his loyalty lies with that Priscilla girl, a troubador, instead of me. How do I get him to like me? Maribelle: Hmmm, rambunctious indeed. Perhaps if you would tone that down slightly and do more good deeds like charity work, volunteer for something like a local event, learn proper etiquette, table manners and the like. He then would have eyes all on you. Serra: I see… Haha! Watch yourself, Erk! I am ready to call you my loyal vassal even if it kills me! Maribelle: Gods, how did you become like this anyway? Didn’t your parents ever teach you the first thing about nobility, which is elegance? Serra: …. No…. I never met my parents. In fact, my parents put me in a convent when I was very little. It was a poor one, we were always short on food, we didn’t have warm blankets, the winters were cold with no wood for the fire. I-I was fine, really! I figured things would only get better! It was just a matter of time….. Maribelle: …Oh, darling… Serra: …So, I… I know, someday, that we will have a big reunion over in Lycia! My parents will welcome me back with arms wider than their reach! I just know it… Maribelle: …Serra, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to say such things… But I believe you. One day you’ll reunite with your family and have a big feast all in your name! You got to keep searching and praying for this day to come! Trust me. Serra: *Sniff* …Okay... Maribelle: (Too bad that she ended up like this, she’s got potential to be a great noble, but saying she’s a noble and never had met her family tends to make me believe it was a manner of coping with the dire situation she was in at the convent. So she may not be a noble by blood at all but merely acting as what she believes is one…. Truly a sad tale that came upon me today…) You need anything, Serra, my dear? Serra: No, I’m fine. I’ll head back to Erk. I need to tell him about my past if he is to become my vassal, after all. Maribelle: Well, I don’t want you to go to bed feeling all down in the dumps, so let me offer you some tea. It’s the least I could do. Serra: No, I’m fine, really. Thank you, though. I’ll be okay. Maribelle: I hate to see someone decline an offer of tea so it’s probably not my place to cheer you up. Well, I’ll go leave you two be for the night. Let me show you your own tent so the night is not awkward. Serra: Thanks. I’ll toss in for the night after I go talk to Erk. Good night Maribelle. Maribelle: Good night, darling. May the gods bless you. ………. Serra: Hey, Erk? How’s it going? Is my knight in shining armor feeling better? Erk: You keep flattering me, why? Serra: Because I need to know if my loyal vassal is doing okay! I only got one of you after all. Erk: That’s not it, something is troubling you. You can tell me. Serra: Okay, yeah…I told Maribelle so now is the time to tell you. You see I was raised--- Erk: ….I see…. The thing I don’t get is, why tell me? Serra: How could you be so inhuman about my painful past? Erk: Because I don’t care about your past, I know how you are now. You may actually be of royal descent and you even have a place in House Ostia so you may as well be a noble to from the get-go. So, my point is, you are a noble, you just had to go through a traumatic childhood to get the title. I actually envy you. Serra: Erk… Erk: About becoming your loyal vassal; I’ll do it from time to time. But when all I want is to study, then please let me study. Heck, I’d loved to be walking around with a cute noble if you ask me. Serra: Erk…. I don’t know what to say… Except, thank you for putting my mind at ease. Erk: My duty has been served. Now go get some sleep, you’re going to need the rest for tomorrow when we return to Elibe. I should be fine, so we’ll find a way to return. Serra: So soon? But we just met Maribelle. Erk: Yes, but, this is a military base- they will ask us to join their ranks for their mission. We have our own world to attend to and we don’t know what lies ahead of us if we decide to stay and help here. It’s better to take care of what we know before jumping into something completely blind, you know? We don’t have purpose fighting here. We can thank them accordingly, but we got to do what needs to be done. Serra:…Makes sense. We should say our farewells before we return to Elibe. Good night, my escort. Erk: …Good night, Serra. Epilogue: A Time for Farewells Maribelle: Ah, morning. Today is the day we go march into Plegia and steal back the Fire Emblem to perform the Awakening on Mount Prism. That Validar is one uncouth, underhanded scoundrel- worse than Gangrel if you ask me. Well, it doesn’t hurt to ask Erk and Serra to come join us- we need all the protection and manpower we can get. (Approaches them on the field) Ah! There you are! And Erk, you seem to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed today! Nice to see you made a full recovery. Erk: Your help and hospitality has been much appreciated. Thanks for the help. Maribelle: Oh, it‘s been my pleasure. So, I have a proposal to make- would you two like to become new recruits for Chrom’s Shepherds? I asked Chrom himself if I would do the honors, of course, you can refuse, no hard feelings. Serra: You mean, he can’t ask us himself? Maribelle: Afraid not. He is too embarrassed from those posters to even talk to potential new recruits. It’s quite cute actually. Erk: Hahaha. We would be delighted, but we have our own affairs to be taken account of. Our duty lies over in Elibe to maintain the balance over in our- once again- peaceful land. We can’t abandon it. Serra: Sorry we can’t help you out Maribelle. But, again, thanks for all you’ve done for us. Maribelle: Darling, it was fun. I should be thanking you for clearing my mind full of worry for today’s march into enemy territory. You both filled me with optimism just by our meeting. Serra: Quick question. You say that Chrom has been recruiting “strange warriors” recently, right? So, where do they go if they don’t accept to join you? Maribelle: Back into the Outrealm Gate. It’s not far from here actually, just a few hours trek down south. Erk: Acknowledged. Welp, this is where we part ways. Thanks again for all your help Maribelle. And may Saint Elimine bless you. Serra: Good-bye Maribelle! Thank you so much for helping me realize my true status in life! I’ll never forget you! (Erk and Serra wave good-bye and finally turns and walks away) Maribelle: Man, I always hated good-byes… may the gods bless you, you two.

Post who you're planning to pair together, whether it be for the sake of cute couples, or for that god-tier baby. Here are my full Hoshido plans. spoilers for huge post:

I already posted this in the Awakening forum, but I was informed that it would be better here. For those of you who don't know, LEGO Ideas is an online feature where you can post your own ideas for LEGO products (as long as it doesn't break any of LEGO's rules), and if the idea receives 10,000 votes, it can be made into a LEGO product! A few days ago, I submitted an idea based on the Premonition chapter of Fire Emblem Awakening. Included is the Fire Emblem, the dragon's table, Chrom, Validar, and Robin (comes with male and female versions). Here's a link to the site; when you get to the site, click the support button on the right to vote (you will need a LEGO ID though, but it is simple to make one). https://ideas.lego.com/projects/121131 You can also comment on the product on the site. Getting 10,000 supporters is mainly a question of advertising, so please tell others you know who would be willing to support this. Update (December 20, 2015): It is currently sitting at 14 supports, and it has been almost a month since anyone supported. Please support this LEGO Ideas project.

Hi. I recently started an account on Serenes Forest. As such, I'm not sure if I'm posting this topic in the correct forum for something like this, but as it is the Awakening forum, I think it would go here. Yesterday Lego approved an idea I submitted on LEGO Ideas based on the premonition chapter of Awakening. If I get 10,000 votes within the time limit and Lego then reviews the idea and gets permission from Nintendo, it will be made into a LEGO product! Please support this Lego idea on Lego Ideas. The idea is called Fire Emblem Awakening: Premonition. Update (Dec. 20, 2015): It currently has 14 supports and it has been almost a month since anyone supported. I am in the process of making more projects based on fire emblem, but please continue to support this one.

I was bored so I made a support planning sheet for FE8. It automatically correlates data to duplicate cells (ie Rennac/Dozla to Dozla/Rennac), so you should only edit what's above the black boxes. It also sums the values of each row on the right side so you can make sure no unit has more than 5 support conversations planned. I'll link the version in my google drive, so you'll have to save a copy to your own before you can edit. Doesn't support the "A B C" system that FE uses, so just pretend 1 = C, 2 = B, 3 = A. Hope it's of some use to someone. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15_NpGXOYhPkKw6-vpBJNJQVdIdOEE85fdnxQj1R3K8s/edit?usp=sharing

Introduction: I purchased a 3DS and awakening a couple of weeks ago and decided I would like to start a save file using pairings that made the most sense to me based on the support conversations between characters. I don't mean which characters seem to have the best "romance" but which characters are related due to coincidences in their support conversations. I'm sure most of you have heard of pairing characters such as Lissa and Lon'Qu based on the fact that Lon'Qu shields arrows for both Lissa and Owain. Using evidence like this I wanted to start a topic where people who are interested could help others in finding these kind of relations between characters. The goal is to conduct a positive and helpful conversation between members and to eventually pair every child bearing lady with a husband that makes sense for her and her child. For example I'll be starting out with a pairing I just discovered this morning. Evidence for Chrom x Oliva: Obviously Chrom and Sumia are heavily pushed by the game as a couple, but their supports are generic, and Cynthia doesn't seem to have any dialogue which would push her as being Chrom's daughter. As I was figuring out who to pair with who I was having trouble with Olivia. I read through the majority of her conversations and well as Inigo's conversations looking for a coincidence or something I could use that pairs him with one father. I found a couple of interesting things: The first thing I found is in Inigo and his Father's C-Rank support conversation, regardless of who that may be, Inigo's father says "Lucina's so driven and serious... It's strange you don't have any of that purpose." I found it odd that any of Inigo's parents bar Chrom and The Avatar (MU) would compare Inigo to Lucina, because for the exception of the two listed above any other potential father wouldn't know Lucina well enough to compare her to Inigo. There are several reasons why Chrom makes more sense as Inigo's father than The Avatar (MU). It wouldn't make sense for The Avatar (MU) to have two children because it creates a "plot hole", which I'll detail later. In addition it makes more sense for Chrom to compare the two because many newer or inexperienced parents, like Chrom, compare their children. This makes sense considering Chrom has just become a father to two children. Further relating Chrom and Inigo is in Olivia's B-Rank support conversation with Inigo and Olivia's S-Rank support conversation with Chrom: Doesn't that seem like a weird and seemingly random thing for her to do? I did some digging and the only other conversation to include barrels is Olivia's S-Rank support conversation with Chrom. It's not really evidence but it's a funny coincidence none the less. Evidence for Lissa x Lon'Qu: I'm sure most of you have heard of the famous Lissa and Lon'Qu pairings. If you haven't heard why these two make sense paired together, basically it is based on the fact that in Lon'Qu and Lissa's A-Rank support conversation Lon'Qu protects Lissa from an assassination attempt by blocking an arrow for her. In Lon'Qu and Owain's B-Rank support conversation Lon'Qu protects Owain by blocking an arrow for him as well. Owain also says that that's how Lon'Qu died in his timeline. Lon'Qu fathering Owain would also make perfect sense as to why Owain starts as a myrmidon and is skilled in swordplay. Evidence for Tharja x Gaius: I thought finding a pair for Tharja was going to be difficult because of her Avatar obsession but I actually found this one by accident while reading some of Noire's supports with her potential fathers. It's mentioned that Noire loves sweets in three different conversations. The Avatar and Noire's A-Rank support conversation: Owain and Noire's C-Rank support conversation: and Yarne and Noire's B-Rank support conversation: Why does Noire like sweets? Her father is Gaius of course! As an added bonus Tharja only mentions the Avatar once in Tharja and Gaius's C-Rank support conversation when she asks him to swipe a strand of the Avatar's hair. After Gaius declines, Tharja shifts her attention to trying to curse Gaius instead. In Gaius and Noire's A-Rank support conversation Gaius steals Tharja's tools, which would be easy for Gaius to do considering he's a thief. Pairings so far: (Work in Progress) Chrom x Olivia - Lucina + Inigo Lissa x Lon'Qu - Owain Tharja x Gaius - Noire In Closing (To Be Continued...) I will be adding more later and I can't wait to see what others can find. Together we may be able to piece together the puzzle that is Fire Emblem Awakening. Feel free to add to or critique my pairings and it's encouraged to come up with your own. Disclaimer: This topic is purely for fun for members like myself who like to find little bits and pieces of hinting from Intelligent Systems. These pairings are in no way implied, considered, or stated to be "canon pairings" or "optimal pairings." Again these pairings are only for fun!

Just perfect.

So i've been replaying FE9 recently with the intent to carry the save into FE10. So whilst playing I decided to look into things a little deeper like trying to get as many A rank supports as possible I cant see a way to get all of them as there isn't enough maps/space to take characters along in the last 3rd of the game as an example if you wanted A rank support between Tanith and Reyson you have to take them both along for every map once they become available. This got me thinking into how many I could theoretically get in a single playthrough. It also made me wonder if there were any working AR codes or other ways to edit the support values. After spending 2 days searching and trying different things and trying to puzzle out the most efficient way I decided to attempt to hex edit the values but after not hex editing for a long time I've basically forgotten how to or even how to go about finding how or where the support values are stored for FE9, so I was wondering if anyone had any information or just tips to find where the correct bytes are in the save or if they aren't stored in the save where they are located. Oh and I am using the NTSC version if that makes any difference.

I am modding my Fire Emblem 7 game for an enhanced experienced. I added a few difficult maps as well as 4 new characters to recruit. Otherwise, the game remains pretty much the same. Because of the added characters, I had to rejigger some of the supports conversations. This is where I am having problems. I have noticed that certain support conversations (the textual part) will not load during battle. Basically the characters trigger the support, the support successfully increases in rank; however, the text is missing entirely. I noticed this happening with several character such as Sain and Kent's support, which I didn't think I touched. I also confirmed that Lyn and Kent's support triggered normally as well as Lyn and Florina. At this point, I am not sure what the problem is or where it is happening. I am wondering if anyone ran into a similar issue and could point me in the right direction. Thanks!
