thanibomb Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I just noticed that despite being in every FE game to date, there are hardly any Pegasus/Falcon Knight bosses. Off the top of my head, the only ones I can think of are Deetva and Pamela of FE4 from the Silesia map (Chapter 4, I think) and that blue haired girl in FE6 when you go Illia. I haven't played FE1-3, 10, and 11, though, so there might be more in those games. Post more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I wonder why? That's like saying there are hardly Valkyrie bosses other than Ursula. Maybe IS is being sexist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I wonder why? That's like saying there are hardly Valkyrie bosses other than Ursula. Maybe IS is being sexist? Maybe >_> they did include only 1 class set for females and you can't have a female pirate, fighter, merc, hunter, Armor knight in FEDS >_>.

Florete Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Maybe IS just doesn't want to promote violence towards women? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thanibomb Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 I wonder why? That's like saying there are hardly Valkyrie bosses other than Ursula. Maybe IS is being sexist? Well, Valkyries change throughout FE history and are mainly in the GBA FEs, so its not that surprising for Ursula to be the only Valkyrie boss. Still, maybe IS is sexist since most of the females are healers/pegasus knights/mages - weak physical offense. :X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thanibomb Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Maybe IS just doesn't want to promote violence towards women? But men and women should be equal! ...Violence towards men and boys is okay? D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Most of the time who it looks like is going to be the final boss isn't. Like: FE4:looks like Alvis but is really Julius FE5:looks like Manfloy but is really Berdo FE6:looks like Zephial but is really Idoun FE7:looks like Nergal but is really a fire dragon FE8:looks like Vigarde but is really Lyon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Maybe IS just doesn't want to promote violence towards women? And yet they make the female characters have some RES but pathetic DEF when most enemies are attacking DEF? If anything, this is promoting the whole "Damsel in distress" thing that girls seem to hate >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalis Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Creepy lady boss of chapter 4 in SnK has an entire army of female fighters, then there's Vaha(lolsuck), Hilda, and Ishtar. Come to think of it, Silesia and Isaac have the more equality between men and women than most countries than in any other of the series...

Lyn is a clear contradiction of this. IS has no excuse for denying females the Armor Knight and Pirate Classes in FEDS.

Meteor Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Generic females need to stay out of battle because generic males don't have friends to fight for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ϲharlie Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Strange FE facts, huh? Here's one: Jeigan, Maisen, and Marcus are all depicted wearing purple armor in their respective games, but their armor takes on a more reddish tone in their artwork.

IS has no excuse for denying females the Armor Knight and Pirate Classes in FEDS. I don't know what you are trying to say. Lyn has pretty good res, doesn't she? FE10 had a grand total of two. One in 3-12 (technically, if you count her as one) and one in 4-1. That's still only 2. Generic females need to stay out of battle because generic males don't have friends to fight for. :( Strange FE facts, huh? Here's one: Jeigan, Maisen, and Marcus are all depicted wearing purple armor in their respective games, but their armor takes on a more reddish tone in their artwork. Interesting! I wouldn't say more equal in social standing, but maybe so in the military. Maybe. The females in Silesia and Illia seem to be more dominant than the males. Queen Rahna also has more power than her husband's brothers... at least to the people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thanibomb Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Rahna is queen her husband's brothers are just behind Levin in succesion to the throne. That's because Levin is the successor to the Holsety. If Queen Rahna had a daughter, things could change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Mecha Death Christ Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 FE5:looks like Manfloy but is really Berdo Huh? Why would you think Manfloy's the last boss in FE5? Lederick's more likely. Ashnard is the only Emperor to ever truly serve as the last boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 It's possible things could change. My point is Rahna's queen Levin's uncles are brothers of the king. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalis Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 That's because Levin is the successor to the Holsety. If Queen Rahna had a daughter, things could change. As long as that daughter had major Holsety, she would take the throne. It has to be the one of direct lineage from Crusader Sety, which is why everyone was looking for Levin.

Dr. Tarrasque Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Moving on... Here's an interesting fact in FESD/FEDS: Bishops are enemies, duelists, guardians of chapter 24x. Sorcerers are just Duelists and guardians of chapter 24x, Gharnef (one of the main bad guys) Sages are only Allies, 2 main characters (Nyna and Gotoh) and a recruitable unit who was forced to fight. You'd think Sorcerers would be the more common magic enemies but wow, bad bishops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
