BlueLore Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I think if the nohr get a different shapeshifter,then a werewolf is the most likely However it is also possible that kitsune are going to be the only shapeshifters in this game(probably alongside manaketes) and we simply get a kitsune regardless which side we pick.

Belmont Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I rather they not add a shapeshifter to Nohr but if they do it should have a better design than Nishiki. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Uh, the manaketes and Taguel in Awakening aren't really original. Manaketes have been around since the series began and shapeshifters that transformed into other animals were first seen in PoR. But maybe you didn't know that? Still, I'm glad to see more shapeshifters that aren't manaketes! I liked the laguz a lot and I like the Taguel too. I don't like manaketes though (only the dragon laguz when it comes to FE dragons).

Bobobarrel Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I want a brooding bat shapeshifter who wears a mask and fights against the Nohrian criminal underworld. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NekoKnight Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I don't think Nohr needs a shapeshifter but if they had one, a wolf or lion would be appropriate. I want a brooding bat shapeshifter who wears a mask and fights against the Nohrian criminal underworld. It's not the hero Nohr needs right now.

IceBuster573 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I think it's also a possibility that non-manakete transforming characters are exclusive to Hoshido like Ninjas. Just have one of them defect. Nishiki can't be the only warrior of his clan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoshidokoala Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 I think it's also a possibility that non-manakete transforming characters are exclusive to Hoshido like Ninjas. Just have one of them defect. Nishiki can't be the only warrior of his clan. They might even include another Kitsune - perhaps a female one? Idk i'm just guessing atm but I hope so. Plus, they could possibly use Spiritstones? Again just another speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterique Sign Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 What's the closest thing to fox spirits in European folklore? Probably fairies... I like the Bat/Vampire idea someone had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espinosa Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Yeah, a bear would be the most ancient expression to choose from. I imagine there most likely just isn't going to be any Nohr equivalent however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) What's the closest thing to fox spirits in European folklore? Probably fairies...

ColdHeartAndASummerDream Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 What's the closest thing to fox spirits in European folklore? Probably fairies... I like the Bat/Vampire idea someone had Omg,if we get a character that's called "Morgan(a) le Fey" Nohr is seriously the best,like,no competition, like Arthurian legends FTW, though it's unlikely, as it's based off of Rome, maybe demigods then? "Oh gods" would have a whole different meaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I saw this thread, and immediately thought "Werewolf". Seems I'm not the only one. I like the Bat/Vampire idea someone had Another good one as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nym Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I would like to see a coyote because coyotes are very smart just like foxs but they are related to the wolfes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodperson707 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) I would like to see a coyote because coyotes are very smart just like foxs but they are related to the wolfes. possible, but i would say unlikely as coyotes are not native to Europe which nohr appears to be based on.

Jedi Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 elephant Well Elephants were used by the Nanman tribe in China in the Three Kingdoms period! ...But thats not western :P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodperson707 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 ^ well if we count the parts of the mediterranean where war elephants took part in some battles as "western" It could work. But i doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure_skylar Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I really want nohr to have a lycan shapeshifter or werewolves! It will go thematically well with their grim dark setting and contrast with hoshido's kitsune! What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyza Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Werewolves and Vampires fit but I think the whole Kamui being able to change into a dragon thing already cancels out any other options. There were only two options in Awakening as well and that was Manakete and Taguel, so Kitsune and Dragon/Manakete in this one, plus I think Dragons represent European folklore well enough.

Only MU V2 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Uh, the manaketes and Taguel in Awakening aren't really original. Manaketes have been around since the series began and shapeshifters that transformed into other animals were first seen in PoR. But maybe you didn't know that? Still, I'm glad to see more shapeshifters that aren't manaketes! I liked the laguz a lot and I like the Taguel too. I don't like manaketes though (only the dragon laguz when it comes to FE dragons). If you can somehow like Taguel over Manaketes, look up the lore and reconsider. They aren't all girls, nor all little. Most of the playable manaketes were female, but they were also the only female manaketes mentioned (besides Ninian's mother). With Arcanea alone you have Medeus, his two mage dragon underlings and the swaths of manakete toadies, Gotoh (who just stays a human sage) and Xane, whose shifting got screwed up so now he can only turn into other people instead of his divine dragon form, leaving Tiki the only constant Archanean divine manakete. In Elibe, Nils is also an ice (half)manakete,Sophia is half manakete and the major endgame baddies of Roy's generation are a male fire manakete and Idun, the series' first female final boss and mage dragon (formerly a divine dragon). Going on to defend the little girls, Tiki's a fledgling dragon priestess with a caretaker and great power, so she's fine. Archanea saga is just weird. Nowi/Nono is pretty old but actively wants to be the little girl (but can still bring out maturity and wisdom if needed) and Nn/Nah's just the opposite. Myrrh's kinda revered like Tiki, but she comes in near endgame and has to fight her newly Dracozombie'd parental figure while the rest of her race is left as a whisper (also doesn't play up the little girl part that much). Fa....okay, you got me on that one. But still, the 'ketes are just as respectable as the laguz. I don't see any of them topping the deceased Goldoan King's strength (in stats at least, quite debatable in lore), but Grima had some potential.

Knight Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 A vampire or werewolf would be awesome. Maybe a mythical salamander could be one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRTJR Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 My Money is on a Werewolf, with the class name of Werewolf. With his name either being Remus or Talbot. both should be obvious in their origins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
