So before you look at the beautiful pic I have prepared, a few notes: You know that I have that headcanon about Eleanora actually being a Divine Dragon? It's here because it makes thinking about this more confusing interesting. Eliwood/Ninian; Roy/Sophia to maximise Dragon-ness. Humans and Dragons are the same species; which is different from actual real life humans. Why? They can canonically produce fertile offspring. In reality, this is only possible if they are the same species due to karyotypes being very strange if different species interbreed. Also, we're assuming having a Dragon form is controlled by one (dominant, if Ninian is a good indication) gene. So the genes we're talking about might not be expressed. So yeah. Elibe only, guys. Trying to factor in other verses is a viable cause of hair-ripping for poor Magyars. Now you have read all that (It wasn't much tbh, Magyars would probably ramble on for an hour) you can look at our lovely work with a single gene about Feathers. Go question our sanity. [spoiler=Here is another pic that calls my (and Magyars') sanity to question.] I hope you had fun in my lecture.

Sophia: Nabata Prophet Sophia is quite the odd duck among the spellcasters in Heroes, possessing a strange stat spread of decent attack, balanced defensive stats, and speed that exceeds only Arden's, with no other units being particularly comparable to her in terms of stats and usage-- for the longest time she was dismissed as having no worthwhile use, with her abysmal speed guaranteeing that nearly anyone could double her and neither defense being quite enough to compensate for that... However, for those that see the potential in the little half-dragon seer, there are indeed hidden strengths that can be played to for excellent results. Much like her FE6 incarnation, she starts with very little to work with and takes a lot of investment, but can be grow up to be pretty strong once you put the work in. Level 40 stats: HP: 36 / 40 / 43 Atk: 30 / 33 / 36 Spd: 16 / 19 / 22 Def: 24 / 28 / 31 Res: 25 / 29 / 32 Total: 156~157 Default skills: Weapon: Fenrir+ Assist: -- Special: Dragon Fang Passive A: Warding Blow 3 Passive B: -- Passive C: Fortify Res 3 Red Robin (Raudrraven & Triangle Adept) General Use, Arena Offense, Chain modes Fenrir Awakened (Keen Raudrwolf + DD stacking) *High Investment* General Use, Arena Offense/Defense Melee Mage (Close Counter) General Use, Arena Offense/Defense

happy birthday to me

Up front I'll go ahead and admit that my case for this theory is admittedly quite weak lol. That said, here's what I know: - Sophia is half-dragon and her dad is a human. Needless to say we know which parent the dragon part came from. - In their sprites, they both have the same (or at least a very similar) shade of lavender hair. By anime logictm, and the fact that no one else (correct me if I'm wrong) has the same shade of hair, this could point to them being related. That said, there are some problems with this theory as well, at least if we assume that Idenn is the mother: - Sophia's supports mention how most of the residents of Nabata village are part-dragon to some degree, so Sophia being a half-breed isn't exactly uncommon or 'special' - Idenn's hair color is more of a silver in her official art (and besides that her hair color could have come from her dad I guess? The purple seems like more of a dragon color though) - apparently it was Zephiel who released Idenn from the shrine of seals, right? (IDK the details that well but this is what it sounds like...?) So if that's the case, it's unlikely that she was out long enough for this to be a realistic possibility - Since Sophia looks hardly any different in Blazing Sword than she does in Binding Blade (about... between 10-20 years difference, IIRC), it's same to assume that she is at least a few hundred years old? So the only way this could be the case is if... uhh... Sophia's dad went to go give her a conjugal visit at the shrine or something, lol. Is it possible that Idenn could have a sister of the same hair color and possibly be like an aunt to Sophia or something? IDK it seems significant to me that Sophia is presented as what she is, and that Idenn appears similar... but hell, maybe it's just a design coincidence and I'm trying to make something out of nothing.

After spending a while here lurking LPs, playing FE when I have time, and occasionally coming out of the woodwork to post here and there, I decided that, since I'm playing all this FE, I may as well share it (and revisit my favorite FE game/mode), but with a bit (lot) of an added challenge (heavily limiting my pool of available characters and forcing myself to use the 2 worst characters in the game). Rules: 1. Only Roy + Female Characters allowed to do combat/heal. Male characters can meatshield early on (I'm not sure it's possible to beat the first few chapters without anyone else at least getting attacked from time to time) and visit villages/recruit/etc. 2. Thieves (Chad/Asthor) allowed, but only to steal/open things (no combat). I must recruit Cath as soon as possible, and once I have her, no more Chad/Asthor 3. Wendy, Sophia and Lilina will be used. Heavily. Wendy's getting the boots. Yup. 4. After I get the preparations menu, Male characters will only be allowed to be deployed for Thief utility or recruitment purposes (and Marcus being deployed as a meatshield on chapter 7 because I don't think it's at all possible otherwise...) 5. Savestates will be used but not abused (no level up rigging, no crit/hit rigging except for with Wendy and Sophia, since I feel like levelling them will be absurdly difficult otherwise, pretty much only used to rescue units from death). 6. All characters will be recruited, all characters will be kept alive (sans Merlinus. He'll die for the cause from time to time). I will, as much as possible, try to get every village/chest/etc. 7. I'm not buying stat boosters at the Chapter 21 secret shop. Everyone maxed out on boots/energy rings/speedwings sort of defies the point of a challenge run I honestly wasn't sure the early-game would be at all possible (especially chapters 4, 5 and 7) with the limited early units, but I played up to and beat 7 (and figured that it's possible enough that I won't end up abandoning this), so here we go! Other chapters I'm worried about are 8x and 11L, but hopefully someone on my team can kill Henning, and my characters aren't total garbage by 11L. After 13, I'm not too scared because I'll have Milady, but my frontlines remain pretty painfully thin...I think Milady, Echidna and Wendy are my only real frontline characters, and that's terrifying... [spoiler=Chapter 1: The Pain Starts Here, aka Roy Solo] Scouring. Heroes kill dragons. Backstory. Zephiel, why do you do this? I always get screwed by RNG in Battle Before Dawn in HHM, and THIS is how you repay me? I should never have saved you :( Marcus > Eliwood. Also, did Harken, Sain and Kent all mysteriously die? Lilina please save me. I need combat units and I need them now. The face of our hero/carry/God Looting inventories for Sword/vulneraries. All non-Roy units can go cower in a corner for all I care. Not shown here, but Roy moves far right to show off his manliness for Lilina. This might be my favorite Roy pose. Now, if only he would dodge 40% Axe hits (Rapier is equipped for the chance of critting back.) Starting off, I'm clearly terrible at taking screenshots. Roy crit here after dodging an axe-hit. So bad at taking screenshots ;_;. Roy uses a vulnerary and taunts all the enemies into attacking him (no other unit will enter battle this chapter!) Stab on EP after dodging things. I suck at taking screenshots, but Roy dodged both axe-hits. He's currently on 17/18 HP (THIS IS IMPORTANT) A very nice defensive level from counterkilling that fighter (and he needs the speed badly).. And then he gets hit by the other fighter (29%) and the archer for 17 damage. REWIND. Vulnerary for 1hp to survive EP. (Also, I'm burning those Rapier charges disturbingly fast...) Re-get level, same EP happens, but that 1HP vulnerary saves Roy. Next 2 turns are just countering and healing. More speed/avoid is always nice? Need some strength soon, though, or the boss-kill will be impossible. Finishes the archer. Aggressive enemies dead, I can breath a sigh of relief! Baiting the fighter and stabbing/dodging. I really can't complain at all about more speed (and 5 stats), but I'm going to be really sad if I have to reset because NO STRENGTH. I remember there's a village, Old Man Marcus is on the case. Redundant Criticals! Sort-of-but-not-completely-redundant critical! Roy moves up. The end is in sight! $$$$$$$$$$$$ (Iron Sword fund) On one hand, he's gotten speed and Luck on every level-up and he's amazing. On the other hand, STRENGTH PLZ I decide to get ALance C because I can. This proves to be a great decision Lagging and learning on the bench confirmed. ROY'S OUR BOY. Let's finish the last scrubs on the map! Wolt and Bors make themselves useful as couriers. This might be the first time they've ever been useful to anybody in FE6 HM. AND THEN THIS HAPPENS. WHY ARE YOU EVEN GETTING SPD/LUK IF YOU CAN'T DODGE THINGS, ROY? (I might have gotten a little overly aggressive. Rewind!) Re-do. Roy still sucks at dodging things, but at least he's alive! I forgive you for all your sins, Roy <3 The Bench Mob chilling. This might take a while (I'm not healing. Would need 2 vulneraries to get out of OHKO range and I just wasn't bothered) Bors delivers some much-needed supplies... ...since Roy somehow managed to break an Iron sword in the first chapter. No save scumming necessary, he just dodged everything (this is a mostly recurring theme). 6 levels, +6 speed. I think I'm in love (but strength pleaseee) So strong with that 6-strength at level 7. S..so fast... though Eliwood, always benched YES PLEASE. I NEED MORE COMBAT UNITS! NO! LOL
