Anacybele Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Just now, Othin said: FE does like its green-haired pegasus knights, huh. Seems so, but not all of them look so close to Palla. Could add Elincia to this list too though, she's also got green hair and rides a Pegasus, even if she's a special case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Ooh, this is a fun one! I want to vote Ranulf as one half of this. He figured out who the Black Knight is before anyone else and his intuition is pretty great. But who would be a great partner for him? I WOULD say Ike, but I feel like he'd just be more of a sidekick in this case. He never really struck me as someone who has any form of detective skills. But he is pretty smart despite how sheltered his upbringing seemed to be, so who knows. And Ranulf can leave with Ike at the end of RD, so...yeah, why not I guess? Ranulf and Ike!

LoneStar Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Detective Duo huh? Big brain Alfonse definitely has to be one. I'm not sure who else I should pick maybe Veronica I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercakete Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Detectives? Er... That's kind of out of left field... Hmmm Volke? I mean, he kind of has a similar job to a private investigator, right? Maybe one of the ninjas? No, they're more spies and assassins than detectives. There are plenty of tacticians, too, but that's a different skill set. I'm a bit stumped on this one; it doesn't really fit FE. Hmm Seth? And a tagalong Franz, maybe? I mean, Seth did figure out the whole Orson thing. That'd be cute, I guess. The trouble is that this really sounds like a cosplay + "humoring not-actually-smart people"Â situation. Like Fae or something, thinking she's super smart and "solving a mystery" of who ate the cookies or whatever. "Detective" is just a bit too specific, you know? Hmmm... Golly. This is tough.

Icelerate Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Volke and Bastian are the best choice. Easily. But Lucia and Geoffrey work too and I prefer them as characters. Wow Crimea has the best detectives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Emblem Fan Posted April 12, 2020 Author Share Posted April 12, 2020 I'm a bit late, heh. The Most Brilliant Detective Duo, huh? Honestly, Matthew and Leila are the very first two characters that came to mind. But, at the same time, I...kinda wanna vote for Brom and Nephenee, purely because I feel like this'll be my last chance to vote for Brom. On the other hand, let's face it, Brom and Nephenee don't really do a lot of detective work, eh? Still, it might be a fun theme, just because. This is a tough one for me.

Mercakete Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 @Fire Emblem Fan I thought of Matthew and Leila, too, but their job isn't to do the deducing. Their job is to observe and report. So, upon further inspection, I ruled them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tybrosion Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 If anyone wants an option for a meme vote, then Kaden and Selkie because of their Forging Bonds story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Bro Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 This one is tough... there's Matthew and Leila but are they the best if one of them failed their detective mission? Lucia and Bastian are good picks but they aren't really favourites of mine. I like them just fine but... I dunno, I'll have to think on this.

Mercakete Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Urgh, if I'm going to go with just "brilliant" then I'd probably vote for Soren and Lute. They could make for a fun duo unit. But as detectives? I mean, they probably could, but it's not like that's their niche. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jave Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I'm going for the "Lead Detective that over analyses everything but misses out the obvious" and the "Sidekick that thinks more rationally and points out the obvious" archetype. So my vote was for Lute & Artur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenomata Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Anyone who knows where the fuck to find Kellam has my vote. ...but for reals, who came up with these...? Like teachers made sense cause we did have a few obvious teachers (even played as one), but dancing duo is a little out there when most games didn't even have dancing scenes. Villains you can't hate could go either way. Detective duo though...? Edited April 12, 2020 by Xenomata Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 7 hours ago, Anacybele said: Why are there two Pallas? And why the heck is Finn there? The common denominator between them is their legwear- really tall boots, and the majority don't wear tights or pants. Technically, you could expand this artwork to contain: Melady, Clarine, lgrene, Juno, Shanna, Thea, Louise, Fiora, Farina, Florina, Vaida, Leila, L'Arachel, Vanessa, Tana, Amelia, Eirika, PoR Marcia, Mia, Lyre, Katarina, Norne, Cordelia, Flavia, Cherche, Sumia, Sully, Hinoka, Tsubasa, and Eleonora. And maybe some more I missed, with a few more on top of that if you included those with tights or pants too- as they partly did here. But, the fan who drew/commissioned this was a Kaga diehard who wasn't so interested or outright antipathetic in any game to come after he left. Despite more than triple the games, Finn appears to be the only man to copy this feminine fashion. So either he's daring, oblivious, or too concerned about defending his young liege and daughter to worry about what others think of his style- thats hu-manly there! -But lets not make a serious prolonged FE gender critique from this.   --- To be on topic... Yeah, I see the cases for Lucia, Ranulf, Bastian, and Volke, and Matthew and Leila too. But don't forget Micaiah and the Herons! *In a court room* Defendant Li R. Mann: "I'm innocent, I was visiting my friend's place on the rainy night before the murder happened!" Leanne: "&!%@$# )(:"{{ ...Lies!" Reyson: "We see the depths of your heart, the shadows you've been cast upon it say everything!" Defendant: "My heart only cries at your accusations!" Micaiah: "How the anger swells in you at our revealing of the truth. You and your friend rode in the darkness with a single-minded obsession to see her strangled to death with your own hands! The evidence Sir Bastian has gathered corroborates our powers- the injuries on her body do not correspond to a hanging as you framed it to be!" Defendant: "DAMN YOU TO HELL!"  ...On a more serious note, Lyn can track humans, maybe she has a place in forensics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tybrosion Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Oh and just for the record, I didn't vote for Kaden and Selkie myself but instead went with something even dumber: Spoiler Marty and Gonzalez because I felt like shit posting again. But hey, at least I'm repping characters that aren't in the game, right? Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRay Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 This is a strange duo question. I am going to go with Miriel and Laurent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You actually remember this game's writing? Another good idea is Sanaki with either Sephiran, Sigrun or even Tormod. Sanaki investigated the slave trade in PoR and in RD she investigated the Begnion's oppression of Daein along with attempting to investigate the Senate when it comes to the Serenes Massacre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercakete Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Oh man why didn't I think of it before?! Alfonse and Bruno! Bruno is literally investigating stuff right now, and Alfonse...well, he's proven himself time and again. They might fit best. I do like the Artur and Lute idea; thought of it myself earlier. Kind of would like to see Seth and Clive, too; they have these sorts of "figuring stuff out" brains too. Ena is also an awesome candidate. Maybe Ena and Nasir, who worked together already to find what happened to Rajaion? ... Now I have too many options again. @Xenomata XD I keep forgetting that guy exists....seriously. @Interdimensional Observer XD Oh man that parody... Edit: Ah, the Miriel/Laurent thing is a good option, too. Shoot. Edited April 12, 2020 by Mercakete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jotari Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 11 hours ago, Mercakete said: @Jotari Foreshortening, not foreshadowing. Foreshortening is an artistic term for making something appear closer or further from the viewer. It involves layering objects (in this case, for example, his foot is in front of his calf which is in front of his thigh) and shortening or lengthening lines in addition to changing the sizes of objects in relation to how close or far away it is from the viewer. Artistic perspective. Oh. Haha. Misread. You're right, it is a nice boot, though I feel like the depth on his shoulders is a bit off. But eh, it was only a rough sketch to begin with.

Xenomata Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Actually ya know what? Kellam actually makes a great detective cause Kellam would literally be at the scene of the crime as it plays out!
