  1. Tobin dies fighting Desaix, inspiring Gray to brutally murder him, and Faye falls to Berkut, confessing her love to Alm as she does. Luthier is also killed trying to free Delthea, by Delthea herself, no less. Because of these deaths, Gray becomes much more subdued and depressed, while Delthea does nothing but hone her magic in her free time.

    On Celica’s route, Deen dies by virtue of Sonya just being more plot-important, and Kamui dies fighting against Duma. Boey also dies to Necrodragons, but is soon revived by the sacred spring.

  2. Maybe change Hamilton’s death quote to “Raise a glass to freedom...”, and, if possible, if one tries to discard his personal weapon, have him say “Hey! I am not throwing away My Shot!” and revoke the discard.

  3. Henry/Noire (Parent-Child) C Rank

    Noire: *sniff* *sniffle*

    Henry: Oh, hey, Noire! Why are you crying?

    Noire: *sniff* I'm not. Mother cursed me to have a runny nose for three straight days.

    Henry: Really? Ooh, that's a pretty nasty curse. I'll have to ask her about it sometime!

    Noire: Father!

    Henry: Sorry, sorry. Why'd she curse you, by the way?

    Noire: It's nothing new. *sniffle* Mother is always trying out some new spell or another. Every time she comes up with one, she *sniiiff* uses me as her guinea pig.

    Henry: Well, that's not very nice. Then again, we are Dark Mages...testing hexes on friends and family is traditional!

    Noire: *sniff* Oh...well.

    Henry: Aw, don't worry about that! I got used to not upholding that tradition, seeing as I didn't have any friends or family. Here, I'll take a look at that curse. In the meantime, you can borrow my hanky.

    Noire: Th-thank you... *HOOONK!*

    Henry: Hmm...this particular hex looks to be a lot more complicating than it needs to. Wow, I think Tharja designed it like this just so I couldn't dispel it.

    Noire: Oh...*sniff*

    Henry: Well, might as well try. And a zip, and a zap, and a zoop! ...Feel any better?

    Noire: A-a-CHOO!

    Henry: I'll take that as a no. Don't worry, Noire, I'll go talk to Tharja and sort this all out.

    Noire: Er...are you sure? That never really worked out for you in the future. Every time you talked back, Mother cursed you up to your eyeballs. ...Or sometimes she just cursed your eyeballs, and you cried yourself to sleep.

    Henry: Nya ha! That's kinda funny! Pathetic, sure. But still kinda funny! It's Ok, Noire. You can be sure to depend on me!

    Noire: I sure hope so...

  4. He beats both Jakob and Michele by one point of Defense, and Michele by two points of Speed and one of HP, but besides that...yeah.

    iuzaj8q.jpg

    Jakob scouts ahead behind to reveal a Knight, a Cavalier, and a Ninja, the former of which is promptly one-shotted by Michele.

    bWOpBYL.jpg

    The Cavalier attacks her, taking not insignificant damage in return. 

    i18y0PA.jpg

    He is taken out shortly afterward...

    eWvVuzj.jpg

    ...and his Ninja friend is damaged.

    5m7setw.jpg

    Oh, sorry, did I say "damaged?" By that, I meant brutally murdered. Afterward, we open the chest to find...something. Either 5,000 gold, a Steel Sword, or a Killing Edge; I lost the pictures, so I don't know which treasure was where.

    1yPKWrb.jpg

    Next, we scout out the next corridor and brace for impact.

    SQYRPQX.jpg

    Damage taken is minimal. (Read: nonexistent) On our turn, I have Michele attack this Archer, bringing him below half health.

    P3DkN5O.jpg

    Then, Jakob takes the kill.

    IOlL3f4.jpg

    Also, Michele gets another level from Dual Striking! The HP and Speed are pretty good, and the Magic is helpful for using the Dragonstone, but the enemies haven't really been getting crit rates (even low ones) on her, not to mention the fact that her Bane is once again higher than her Boon.

    9oaqrxi.jpg

    The Samurai proceeds to attack her, dealing zero damage and taken a lot more than zero damage.

    DqojkEa.jpg

    Jakob takes the kill...

    mHrAT6Y.jpg

    ...and Michele moves up to bait out the Ninja.

    hD0LsbA.jpg

    On the next turn, she attacks him but sadly misses.

    1EH26DY.jpg

    Zqr0A7O.jpg

    YTdN2CN.jpg

    I'm...at a bit of a loss as to what happened here. Rest assured, people attacked, and people were killed.

    1iPP2vz.jpg

    Scout, brace for impact, etc....

    APZky8P.jpg

    Jakob gets a kill...

    Qp4YcqK.jpg

    Michele damages this Ninja...

    2y9a12c.jpg

    Michel moves up while Jakob hides in a corner...

    e8KgUbb.jpg

    Healing...

    JxJojn8.jpg

    Vallite killing...

    sZh3i83.jpg

    Good level-ing...

    rXtIhQ0.jpg

    More killing...

    Now we just have the long trek back to the boss room.

    (One long trek later)

    8cGdjbc.jpg

    OK, we're back! Michele baits out this Oni Savage.

    MgjTB5g.jpg

    Ooh, he gets one-rounded.

    zyuftbq.jpg

    Then, she baits out this Samurai and that Archer.

    RXgnP8e.jpg

    Jakob defeats him, gaining a level.

    qZ9onqH.jpg

    Strength! Very nice!

    OUoQxgP.jpg

    The Archer is also effortlessly one-rounded. Only the boss left!

    Now, the boss doesn't move and has no ranged weapons...you know what that means!

    Q5vqoOv.jpg

    BOSS CHIPPING TIME!

    7AeB5Zu.jpg

    Oh, hey, a crit. Pretty nice; that'll speed things along.

    1asr3CF.jpg

    Another one? I've been getting a lot of low-percentage crits on this map...

    V3Oz5LK.jpg

    ...That's right. Jakob just got three 7% crits in a row.

    IynTVO2.jpg

    Needless to say, the Berserker dies...with magnificence!

    H0v7Dzj.jpg

    He gets a good level from it, too. As if it hadn't been rubbed in the boss's face enough.

    MQVm4Ix.jpg

    With that, the stage is complete.

    "That's them taken care of."

    "Did we really have to go back to get the treasure, Lady Michele?"

    "Every little thing counts, Jakob."

    (Transparent purple figure appears)

    aMuVfxw.jpg

    "Whu- Who are you?"

    "That does not concern you, dragon. It is forbidden for outsiders to explore these lands. I admire your strength, so I will grant you some leeway. However, if you fail to extricate yourself within...let's say, fifteen minutes...well, finding an exit will be the least of your worries."

    "...Michele, there's a pond just outside of this cave; I think I can use my pendant to temporarily open a portal."

    "You think?"

    "She thinks?"

    "Who are you two talking about?"

    "It's our best chance; we need to go, now!"

    (the three run off)

    "Hmph. I'll have to talk to Master Anankos about increasing security around here...that woman seemed familiar, though. Why did it hurt my head to look at her?"

                                                                *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

    "Phew...it worked. We're OK."

    "Speak for yourself, milady! Do you know how much water I got up my nose?! *cough* My throat feels like it's going to curl up in a corner and die."

    "*chuckles* Anyway, there are more pressing matters at hand. We need the forces of both Hoshido and Nohr to defeat Anankos. We'll start recruiting in the former, considering that they're significantly less likely to murder us on sight. All in agreement?"

    (Gunter and Jakob both say "aye")

    "Excellent. Just one more thing...and it's between me and Azura."

    "Azura? Wasn't she that princess that was kidnapped by Hoshido? If you need to talk to her, where is she?"

    "To put it bluntly, old man, she's dead. Long story."

    "Azura...you seemed to recognize that woman. Was she..."

    "Yes...she was. Arete...my mother. How did you know?"

    "You have the same hair. Still, this knowledge...that Anankos can control others..."

    "He can what?!"

    "As far as I know, only the deceased of Vallite ancestry. That's what those transparent purple soldiers are. Of course, I don't know the full extent of his power. We best be wary."

    "Ever wary."

  5. Some supports just leave you with a sense of dissatisfaction. Whether it be hilariously unfitting Parent/Child supports or awkwardly written romance, these conversations definitely need some work. I will be rewriting some supports, especially from the 3DS games, that thought didn't work out very well. Critiques and requests are welcome.

    Charlotte/Xander S-Support

     

  6. pPTe159.jpg

    To start off the map, I have Michele enter this corridor...

    gCprs6T.jpg

    ...revealing the enemies. I have her equip the Nohrian Blade I got from Visit Bonuses and move Jakob up next to her.

    8mG0RAj.jpg

    0hzSXzy.jpg

    Thanks to the two, she takes minimal damage.

    abqu1IQ.jpg

    Jakob takes out the Cavalier, getting a level.

    raCZt3d.jpg

    Yes, Jakob. It won't do.

    b7jXzyQ.jpg

    Next, Michele moves up and attacks the Outlaw, gaining yet another good level.

    ieCZCbU.jpg

    Her Boon is now on par with her Bane, everyone!

    YydbGWE.jpg

    On the enemy phase, the Outlaw retreats to the fort while the Fighter attacks Michele, dealing a little damage and taking a lot. Jakob heals his mistress up...

    1mWBJoe.jpg

    ...and provides moral support as she defeats the Fighter.

    I9zy6i4.jpg

    The Outlaw chips some health off of Michele, and Jakob retaliates by stabbing him to death.

    f6Hox3M.jpg

    We spend a turn moving, Jakob reveals the enemies, and Michele moves up with the Nohrian Blade to take their attacks.

    uA5FPno.jpg

    Jakob takes out the weakened Samurai...

    8MP9r9m.jpg

    ...and Michele deals a hefty amount of damage to this Fighter.

    cQ7R7r2.jpg

    9oDCwq9.jpg

    The remaining Vallites are taken out, and Jakob gains a level in the process.

    v1gqiOw.jpg

    Very nice! The extra Strength is very helpful.

    KBOB5fo.jpg

    Next turn, I have Michele heal in the fort and Jakob reveals more enemies.

    FilW8I1.jpg

    I'm...not quite sure what happened on the enemy phase. In my defense, I played this map almost two weeks ago, all right?

    Anyway, Jakob weakens and debuffs this Spear Fighter...

    gDRXhXk.jpg

    ...for Michele to take the kill. I would also like to mention that, with the Dragonstone and Jakob's support, she's practically invincible at this point in the game.

    uEVswC5.jpg

    Come! BREAK YOUR WEAPONS AGAINST ME!

    No, wait, Fates removed durability.

    zjvOZF9.jpg

    Jakob defeats the Fighter, and Michele attacks this Archer subsequently gets attacked by him and his Bow-wielding buddy.

    S8MXtgA.jpg

    She uses the Nohrian Blade this time, and Jakob claims the kill and another good level.

    Gzc700L.jpg

    Another defensively focused level. I'm not complaining, by any means, however.

    lgYYdnP.jpg

    He teams up with Michele to bring the first Archer down to 1 HP...

    wKsJ0DR.jpg

    (Michele gains another level in the process. Everything she needs for this chapter! Well, besides HP)

    iB2HFN8.jpg

    ...and she proceeds to take him out.

    CwBU0z1.jpg

    The dynamic duo defeat the last Vallite in this room. Now...looting time!

    f0KCO8y.jpg

    Quite nice!

    rbZsTQW.jpg

    Cheaper than buying one!

    PSw9t54.jpg

    This should be useful in the near future!

    I have everyone heal up, and Jakob scouts out the next room once again.

    s3m3fAl.jpg

    Good thing we got that Armorslayer!

    xi33C6d.jpg

    Michele wasn't able to move up all the way, but Jakob can deal with this Knight easily enough with her help.

    caagurM.jpg

    I then have him Pair Up with her to assist in her Dragonstone tanking.

    MB1csc8.jpg

    f0vvY27.jpg

    Only the first Vallite attacks us, so Jakob is able to pick him off safely.

    TlgqCyW.jpg

    He gains a level, too! Magic is pretty good for now, but I plan to switch him into Great Knight once I find some units to replace his current roles. (*cough* Mozu *cough* Sakura *cough*)

    TCIvKpN.jpg

    I have Jakob plop Michele into the corridor, only to realize that scouting ahead only works if you Wait there.

    qdRgLnX.jpg

    "Gunter! I should be surprised that you're still alive after falling into the Canyon, but...well, the same happened to us."

    "Hans threw you in, too?"

    "Technically, Ganglari did, but then I was saved by Lillith, but then I jumped in later...it's a long story."

    89ELBIp.jpg

    Now, Gunter may be terrible as a unit, but his Personal Skill and Pair Up bonuses make him a great Support partner for the Avatar in the early chapters of Revelation. Also in the two Pre-Choice maps he appears in.

    ...Also that one chapter of Conquest.

    NSzN9za.jpg

    Now, we could charge in and take out the boss now...

    I0Ugdiu.jpg

    ...but then we'd miss out on all the yummy experience and loot!

  7. Rezzy

    ---------------

    A cool girl with kind of bad drawing skills.

    I've wanted to be an author for as long as I can remember.

    I'm not very good with them at all. Of course, having children is a moot-ish point since I have no plans to get married, ever.

    ...I liked Sonic Forces, does that count? I admit it has the worst gameplay of any Boost Sonic game, but the story has more effort put into it than Generations.

    I don't like Fortnite, because A. I don't like shooters in general; B. I find it to be extremely overrated. I also hate Bayonetta for religious reasons.

    ProfImpossible

    ---------------------------

    Tell Sega to maybe stop making original games.

    US governmental practices.

    What makes regular toast crunch? Heat, good sir! How have you gotten a teaching degree and not know this?

    Purple Mage

    ----------------------

    It looks really cool, so far!

    Ooh, my memory is a bit rusty on this...the one with the mechanicl dragon head?

    ...Percybeth?

    Yes, but I don't know how good it is.

    No fried chicken.

  8. What are some of your funniest moments involving the Mess Hall? A personal favorite of mine: I was having Elise make yogurt, and she got the "bad meal" message ("Why does the stupid salt have to look so much like the stupid sugar?"). The result: Supersweet Yogurt.

    ...Why were you going to put salt on yogurt, Elise?

  9. (Michele is having a nightmare)

    "You will pay for this, Nohrian!"

    "I have nothing to say to you. If you truly wish to fight...you die here."

    "No! Don't-"

    *clash*

    "Michele..."

    "Oh, wonderful. My guilt over losing Azura has personified itself within my subconscious, now."

    "...Michele, it's really me."

    "...How? Didn't you...you know, die?"

    "I'm...not sure myself. It may have something to do with my amulet. All I know is that when I died, I couldn't go on to...wherever. I had to stay here, somewhere between life and death."

    "That doesn't sound pleasant."

    "It's not. Still, it was said that the bearer of the Pendant of the Water-that's what it's named, by the way-is called for a purpose, and nothing shall impend them of it...not even death."

    "Are you still able to explain to us what you know about the situation?"

    "I...can. But to do so, you need to be in a safe place."

    "Where?"

    "Within the Bottomless Canyon. All you need to do is ju-"

    (Michele wakes up)

    "Blast. I hate it when that happens. Let's just hope she was going to say 'jump'..."

    Several minutes later...

    "Milady, are you sure this is a good idea? Jumping into the canyon..."

    Aqxja7S.jpg

    "It's not to hide, Jakob. Azura told me she could tell us what she knows after we jump in."

    "Isn't Azura dead?"

    "Well, yes, but...long story. My only worry is that I misunderstood what Azura means."

    hOOA1p9.jpg

    "Oh, there you are, Azura. Were you here the whole time?"

    "Don't blame yourself. Ghosts are hard to notice."

    "Pardon me, milady, but who are you talking to?"

    "I'm talking to Azura. Can't you...oh, you probably can't see her, right?"

    "Well, I see no one except you, so, yes; I cannot see 'her.'"

    "I see. Anyway, we can deal with that later. For know, we need to jump into the canyon."

    (Michele jumps into the canyon)

    "Lady Michele! ...oh, well." 

    (Jakob follows her)

    JuXwqfy.jpg

    "No; they call it the Bottomless Canyon for a reason. Instead of a Bottom, it holds a portal to another kingdom. This one."

    EP7XtPB.jpg

    eX3J7Hr.jpg

    "Just as I suspected!"

    "You do realize that I'm getting severely left out of the loop, here, right?"

    "Sorry, Jakob. I'll explain everything once I learn it."

    "Learn what?"

    "Everything."

    "It's not safe to discuss this out in the open. Follow me, I know a safe place."

    Later...

    "So, Azura, first question: why have I never heard of this 'Valla?'"

    "You see, Valla's existence has been a strictly-kept secret for centuries. No one is permitted to speak of it to outsiders."

    "How do they enforce this rule?"

    "Magically. One cannot say 'Valla' while not within its borders."

    qDZjVQ5.jpg

    "Ah, so the curse can be circumvented by simply not using the word 'Valla!'"

    "..."

    "Azura?"

    "Why didn't I think of that?..Anyway, back to the explanation."

    1R7d3y3.jpg

    "At one point he was a good ruler: wise and just. As an ancient dragon, all knew he would one day succumb to madness, he himself most of all. He cast a curse on himself; one that would kill him when he eventually went insane. While the citizens were sad to lose their king, they knew it was for the best. But then, a terrible tragedy happened..."

    "Somehow, the curse was lifted, and Anankos's madness quickened. He laid waste to much of Valla, and those who survived lived in fear...I was three when it happened. Me and my mother, Queen Arete, were only able to escape because of the Pendant of the Waters."

    "Hold up, Azura. Are you saying...your mother was the queen of Valla?"

    "Her mother was the queen of Valla?!"

    "...Yes. I consider you trustworthy enough to know this."

    "I see. Thank you for telling me, Azura."

    "You're welcome. Now, where was I? Ah, yes, Anankos."

    1XC4Dbq.jpg

    b3Y6RZt.jpg

    "Do you have any questions?"

    "Well, I do have one question: what happened to your mother?"

    "...One day, I went back to our quarters to find her missing. She left her amulet, and a note which said she was going to confront someone, and that she may not come back...she never did."

    "Azura...I'm so sorry...I'm so, so, sorry."

    "Ahem. Lady Michele? Lady Azura? If you'll allow me, I do have a question: what are we going to do about all these soldiers!?"

    "Vallite troops! Jakob, prepare for battle!"

    (Well, the update certainly arrived earlier than expected! Today's pre-battle segment is quite long, and the battle itself is MUCH longer, so I'm going to start splitting these updates into pre-battle and battle, except for the paralogues.)

  10. Some FE: Heroes, but not much else.

    I've played the LEGO games, but I haven't seen the movies. They seem pretty cool to me, though.

    ...I honestly can't think of anything.

    Does the Bible count? Either "The Little Princess" or the "Lord of the Rings."

    Syndrome is an amazing villain.

  11. All of Awakening, Blazing Sword, and Conquest; almost all of Revelation; about half of Sacred Stones, Echoes, and Radiant Dawn.

    As I said above, the charming cast of characters, awesome supports, and an Avatar that isn't really dumb.

    No.

    History is a very fun topic, when taught properly. Early American history is my favorite, for...reasons...

    What I'm saying is I'm Hamilton Trash.

    I used to when I was younger. I grew out of it, eventually. Moving to a much cooler area with no nearby parks or sidewalks probably helped speed up that process.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Through this Tvtropes page: KilledMidSentence. "Summon Bigger Fish" is a classic favorite.

    I do, in fact! My favorite is probably this one.

    Eh...

    I haven't played on trampolines that much, but I've had a good experience with them.

    Oh wow this is so cool I'm getting super hyped

    wait ice climbers are back

  12. Smash Bros!

    Sadly, nothing springs to mind. Order of the Stick, I suppose.

    I'm not sure, to be honest. Of course, I don't have good money, so...

    I feel that Batman is one of those characters that's great when written write, but awful when written poorly. There isn't a lot of middle ground with him.

    There are several contenders for this. I think it's a toss-up between the time a dreampt how Ronald Reagan and a Man in Black were trying to erase my memory, and I escaped by floating on an umbrella and the time I dreamt about a Phineas and Ferb episode in which Tharja takes over a hospital, drags us all along, and proceeds to do nothing of interest until the end.

  13. I've read all the books and seen all the movies, and I quite like it.

    Hmm...I think I'll go with Coup.

    More flashy, definitely.

    Lugh, I suppose, because of our similar age. I could shows him some good books and introduce him to pizza, I guess.

    So, a word of warning about the Xbox 1 you plan to get...first, setting it up is really long and difficult. Second, Sonic Generations won't be available for it NOW, but it will be in some five months. Oh, and Ridley is in the new Smash Bros.
