Jotari Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) So playing the story mode of Heroes. We've reached the land of the dead where deceased warriors fight for Hel and were greeted by Ranulf...and all those other laguz who are absolutely alive. If Heroes cared more about it's story then the current banner would have been some kind of "Martyrs of Justice" banner featuring canonically dead characters. This also would have been a good way of retaining a theme yet introducing characters from multiple games at once. Characters that could go on such a banner -Lorenz -OH Hardin -Anyone from Gen 1 of Holy War not in the game (aside from Briggid). -Pelleas -Yen'fey -Rajaion (he's recently come under my eye as a potential cool character, though it's be outright comical if he got in before Ashnard) -Griel (probably never happen due to his seasonal basically being he default appearanc), Rudolf, Byron, basically any lord's father. -Scarlet -Some of those FE6 characters that canonically died between games Athos, Deghensea and the Rainbow Sage would also fit the criteria but they're probably better off being legendaries. What do you think? Would you like a banner that's more integrated with the story mode and/or would you like a banner that pulls characters from multiple games?

Ottservia Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 A small idea I had for a way to integrate banner and story better is by having a second gen awakening or second gen fe4 banner where the whole reason the characters got caught up in all this mess is because they wondered in the world of the dead looking for a way to resurrect their dead parents.

Etrurian emperor Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I'd like me some Zombie Azelle and Lex but I don't think the devs put that much thought into the setting of hell. The zombie brigade will probably be limited to undead versions of characters related to the Askr siblings like their distant ancestors, their daddy and zombie Sharena.

Interdimensional Observer Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Why no Leila? She was incredibly popular last CYL for being Jaffar's scabbard. I'd also like Philia- that Pegasus Knight who served Emmeryn with the granny-white hair and granny haircut who died in the same chapter as Emm's fall to warped-in Risen Snipers in an attempt to save her lady. Why? Because why did she get stuck staying dead when everyone else got the "playable in some way" card in Awakening sans Validar and Walhart's goons? I wanted an Awakening Triangle Attack, and she would've been its third member. 2 hours ago, Jotari said: -Anyone from Gen 1 of Holy War not in the game (aside from Briggid). Edain also survived to the start of Seliph's liberation and is still kicking, if left unseen because no point in making a new profile pic for a character who won't exist in Gen 2 if you got her Subs.

Left out Philia (and her Genealogy inspiration) precisely because of how minor they are. And completely forgot about Leila. Wait Adean's completely alive? I thought she was MiA shortly before the start of the Chapter. Screw that, if she's there the entire time and just comically out of frame then they should have included her along with Finn as playable. Would have given a good book close with the whole game starting with her kidnapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahnya died a more glorious death however, both got felled by archers they didn't know would be their to protect their queen, but at least Philia's end wasn't totally overshadowed by the end of her liege. As for Edain, from SF's old FE4 script: Lester with Rana Lester: “Rana? You’re fighting too!?” Rana: “Yes. I was worried about His Highness.” Lester: “I bet you were. But you be careful out here. Mother would be a wreck if anything happened you.” Rana: “Yes, but do you know what she told me? She said that we are greatly indebted to the people of Isaac and we should do whatever we can to help them.” Lester: “Yeah, we wouldn’t be here now if it weren’t for them. …So where is mother now?” Rana: “She’s working at the convent in Tilnanogue.” Lester: “I see. Rana, we need to do our best out here for mother and our missing father. Someday we’ll be able to return with mother to her hometown of Jungby.” Rana: “I hope so, Lester.” As for Leila, her exact rank on CYL3 was 163, one spot above Peri, and one below Mareeta, who is one spot below Jorge of Tellius's convoy group for some reason. I think that is pretty good for a dead person, they even have unused FE7 stats to go off of for her.

Azure the Scale Tipper Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Yeah, maybe the best for a banner would be: -Turban Hardin (Lance Cavalry) -Scarlet (Axe Flier) -Leila (Colorless/Red Dagger Infantry) -Greil (Axe Infantry) GHB: Lorenz (Lance Armor) Might develop this in the Create a Hero thread.

Fire Emblem Fan Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I could see it, and I don't think I'd mind it! So long as it had characters that are CONFIRMED dead and not characters that are just assumed to be dead. I agree with those saying Leila, Scarelt, Philia, and Lorenz.

Zapp Branniglenn Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I just assumed Veronica was once again captured by Hel and forced to summon Heroes for her army. Although the forces of Hel are supposed to be so formidable because they keep coming back with no contract system releasing them. I'm sure we'll get our answers after the end of Book 3. In a Forging Bonds event where we invade the dreams of the now-summonable OCs. I've been waiting half a year to mack on Alfonse's mother.

Gregster101 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 One banner idea I had for the realm of the dead was like a banner featuring characters from the "evil emperor" archetype. Summonable: -Ashnard (Red Sword Flying) -Rudolf (Blue Lance Cavalry) -Emperor Arvis (Red Tome Infantry) -Vigarde (Green Axe Infantry) What do you guys think?

Humanoid Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) No one truly dies here, so I propose an A-team banner. Fire Emblem already has a Murdock and a Hannibal, but I'm drawing a blank on the other two. Any ideas? Funnily enough, a quick Google brings up the fact that some guy called Bosco voices Gustav, amongst others. Apt. EDIT: And apparently FEH voice actor Sam Riegel voices Face in a recent adaptation. So there are links to all four characters. I love it when a plan comes together. Edited April 12, 2019 by Humanoid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yexin Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) i would actually love a "Revived Heroes" series of banners, featuring characters like Spoiler rajaion, elena, greil, byron, ishtore, rinea, shiharam, elbert, fado and many others Edited April 12, 2019 by Yexin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. Weapon ranks cap at A for unpromoted units. And IIRC, she has this oddity where while her in battle sprite is Female Thief for the scripted battle where Jaffar kills her, yet her map sprite for that scene is Female Assassin.

Awaiting the moment where we have 3 armys on the battlefield and the goal of the map is to protect Veronica from killing herself because the AI movement is dumb (as in the 3. army ally is controlled by the AI).
