Acacia Sgt Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 3 minutes ago, Emperor Hardin said: The notes by Kaga say his mother was killed there, so he possibly was was an outcast? On the other hand, it's stated his father was killed in a political strife at the Millennium Court. Depending on what sort of strife it was, to me it sounds like someone decided to off the entire family; and sent an assassin to Pyrathi.

Some people can be willing to go that far. --- Also, interesting thing I noticed in the Designer's Notes: 他にもいくつかの自由都市や地域がありますので簡単に説明します。 カダインは大賢者ガトーが興したと伝えられる砂漠の魔道都市。 ラーマンは守護神ナーガを祭る古代の神殿 テーベは死の砂漠マーモトードにあるという古の幻の街。 ワーレンは異世界からの貿易船が入る自由(自治)港湾都市。 ノルダはパレス王宮の城下町。 ガルダは辺境の開拓都市。ペラティはアカネイアの流刑地・・等です。 Pyrathi only has that single sentence at the very end. While I know it's... less than stellar, Google Translate gives me this: There are several other free cities and regions, so I will explain them briefly. Kadine is a magical city in the desert that is said to have been established by the great sage Gateau. Rahman is the ancient temple where the guardian god Naga is enshrined. Warren is a free (autonomous) port city where trade vessels from different worlds enter. Nolda is the castle town of Palace Palace. Garda is a frontier development city. Perati is an exile in Akaneania. Well, to start, Warren isn't part of Archanea it seems, apparently. Also... Pyrathi is an exile? What? Someone who can better translate that sentence... go ahead.

I don't know. 流刑地 is where Google Translate got the Exile word... but curiously enough, some other sites I'm looking up put it as "Penal Colony". I mean, sure, it's the Designer's Notes... but still, Pyrathi was originally an Archanean Penal Colony? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, could that mean Archanea originally used it to store criminals, but Mannu, who valued the ruins, allied with them, overthrow Archanea and established his own human/manakete Kingdom? We need a better translation as you said. There's a whole large page of designer's notes that are untranslated.

Acacia Sgt Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Also, one thing to keep in mind, despite the... possible usage of Penal Colony, it's still listed in the "free cities or regions", so that and the translation choice of Exile might mean instead that's it where Archaneans choose to flee to? Like I said, we need someone who can actually translate it. Just now, Emperor Hardin said: You only get one single pirate/berserker in the whole game and he is recruited late in New Mystery of the Emblem. I thought Darros was re-added in Ch12, which isn't late. Though it is close to the mid-point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the prologue chapters and the various gaiden which are extremely easy to obtain, its more like 24 chapters in. And keep in mind, you can only have 1 Berserker until you recruit Darros and even afterwards, you can only have a maximum of 2 Berserkers. 4 minutes ago, omegaxis1 said: That does not change that there are still way too many characters in the game.

So your idea is to add ANOTHER character that will, as a result, need to be in the sequel as well? Even if you exclude the the four maidens in the final chapter, New Mystery has a total of 73 playable characters. That's way too many.

If I did another Shadow Dragon remake, there'd be a recruitable pirate in Pyrath who'd be recruitable by Ogma. I wasn't saying those were questions I have, but questions that I would raise and answer. Thanks for that info, though. I had no idea about his mother having been killed in Pyrathi. That would give him reason to never want to return, which would be an interesting angle: Ogma, unusually for his rather blunt and man-of-few-words character, downright pleads with Marth not to go to Pyrathi, as he fears what could happen to the army and, more importantly, Marth and Caeda, if they go to Pyrathi. When Marth says they have no other choice, he then tells Marth what he needs to do to increase their likelihood of not being attacked on sight from 0% to 0.001%. I like that idea of a Pyrathi pirate that can be recruited by Ogma. I personally would also add a unique boss conversation between Ogma and the manakete that rules the island. Maybe something like this: Boss: "...I know you; you accursed little mongrel, born by outsiders that should never have set foot on our sacred ground! With you gone, I shall finally end your family's stain on Pyrathi!" Ogma: "...For the first time since I came into Lady Caeda's service, this will be personal. This is for my family; goodbye, you crazy old freak." Edited March 10, 2020 by vanguard333 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogma: "...For the first time since I came into Lady Caeda's service, this will be personal. Goodbye, you crazy old freak. This is for my mother." I really like that idea, perhaps the recruitable pirate could've been an old friend of Ogma who tried and failed to protect Ogma's mother, thus he bears some guilt?

Acacia Sgt Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Considering Ogma's father was an Archanean noble, how is he a traitor to Pyrathi in marrying and impregnating a Grustian woman? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Well, we know from village dialogue that random people can come and go, like that Aurelian who unintentionally took Bantu's dragonstone away from him, so that would require Ogma's father to have offended somehow King Mannu, then. You know, the fact he and his wife were in Pyrathi to begin with makes me theorize that perhaps he was some kind of diplomatic envoy, or ambassador? Something like that.

Rather cordial and perhaps even friendly, since Grust was founded by an Archanean. Heck, since Grust began as a simple frontier garrison, Grustians might just be Archanean three-four generations removed.

Born in Pyrathi to a Grustian woman and an Archanean Nobleman. He left the island and ended up a slave-gladiator in an arena, helped a bunch of arena fighters (including Samto if I recall correctly; also something I'd expand upon in an anime adaptation) escape, and then he was rescued by Caeda and ended up in Talys; becoming head of a group of mercenaries that are basically the closest thing Talys has to a military. Wow; that is a lot, yet the games usually focus only on the gladiator part when they bother to talk about his backstory at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
