Specifically look at the box to the right, what it promotes from and into varies each game. So this is bound to cause a lot of confusion, we should probably pick a game (9 or 10 due to Laguz I'd suggest) as a base to get our classes off of.If you want a class not from fire emblem we could find a way to work it into another promotion tree.Thoughts?

sacred stones is a fire emblem game lol. the knight class usually can choose between a great night (a armored mounted unit with axe/sword/lance) or a general (a beefier knight with the ability to use all physical weapons including bows)
"In Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, Knights are one of the promotion options of Recruits, and may promote into either Generals or Great Knights"

I would say we use Awakenings classes as the base for all but the non-human units. If people want more specific titles/ranks/classes, they can have them be either a special 3rd tier form or be an alternative promotion class. EX: Dark Mage is usually just Sorcerer and Dark Knight. Its Equivalent in the GBA games is the Shaman, so allow the Sage, Summoner, and Druid as options as well, since they could all be viable forms. Another: Archers > Bow Knight/ Sniper, but maybe also include Bride (Can be used as a distraction or scare tactic instead of just being idiotic as an idea) Ranger (a more Sword/Nature focused mounted unit) and Marksman (Slower fire, more power with a crossbow).

If I was bored enough I could just make a whole spread sheet. It all depends on if we want our characters to start off strong and then have stronger options or start off normal and become strong.

So, I'd like to bring this idea up again. I made the mention in the Interest Check, but since we now have a new person running the show, I feel it's only fair to ask again. A while back I got into one RP and had a Pegasus Archer. Since then, the idea has really grown on me. Would a custom class like that be okay?

I kind of forgot that silver weapons are actually a thing in Fire Emblem, was just thinking for roleplaying purposes instead of actually having it be more effective in combat or whatever. Also, it is tarnished. I just like the idea of at one point being decked out in full shining silver, and now has fallen so low as to not even care to upkeep his equipment.Additionally, he wasn't the leader or anything, and he was already a squire before becoming a recruit, after all, he was recruited right out of the military. I simply mean that after 2 years he had proven himself enough to have gained acceptance and use of the regalia, effectively a full member. Perhaps this rapid rise through the ranks was part of the reason he fell so far and so hard.

That makes sense, thanks for the clarification. Perhaps it could be the equivalent of a steel blade or something of the sort, due to its tarnished nature? Anyway, I'll be sure to start working on the backstory for the so-called evil nation.

Well, here's what I suggest we do. Vincanity's spreadsheet does offer a wide varity of classes(And bring back the distinction between Light, Dark, and Anima magics), including your desired pegasus archer. Therefore, I'm quite happy to just use the spreadsheet as the base for selecting classes, and make additions if they need to be worked into the plot somehow.

Yeah, I made a few options for the Pegasus since it was requested. Twas an interesting time. If needed, I can make 0 and 3 tier spots as well.

That'd be interesting to work out, but that also might be a bit much in the way of work required.

Agreeeed

Also, what should we call the nations? How many would there be? A history? I'd be willing to pitch in some ideas as to this.

All that's been set in stone thus far is the fact that there's an so-called evil nation, although via some brainstorming I've come up with what I feel is a suitable backstory.

Said evil nation is a bit smaller than average, being just one of five nations that are surrounded by a single mountian range. This nation's(For now, let's call it something rather bland, like Vinsenia) one claim to fame is that it holds onto a single item of near-mythic status, an enchanted blade akin to one of the many legends that are scattered around the FE universe. However, the reason that this blade stands out from any others is that it was supposed to glow with rippling power when one who was 'suited to be king' held it.

Needless to say, a new king emerges who can make the sword glow brighter than it has in generations, after the death of the old king and the rumors that the rest of the royal family has stepped aside. He immediately sets out to annex the neighboring countries, and does so with almost ridiculous timing and precision, causing many of the greater nations to suddenly take an interest in this new threat to global balance. Thus, the PC group are hired by a village that's in the bath of Vinsenia's progress to defend them against the rising influx of bandits that flee the marching army.

Cool

Alriiight, I'm liking this so far. I have a vague description of my character. He'd be something like Oscar from PoR and RD. Former knight, now a merc.

Cs was updated on previous page. Any thoughts anyone?

Thinking of making a mage character of some sort, I'll throw the CS together tomorrow after work.

I'm thinking of doing a duo of a Dragon Rider and a Pegasus Knight.

Putting a CS together tomorrow. Also, sent you a PM, Tentacle.

Looks good.
If you have any suggestions for the name or any specfics that you want for the invaded nation aside from a strong flier core, I'd be open to listen.

Speaking of which, I've got a sort of profile for our lovely evil nation, which I'll add to as needed.

Vinsenia: Originally one of five smaller than average countries located in in close proximity of each other, all of them in a very mountainous region of the near the mid west of the continent. It is located in an area especially rich with metals, mostly iron and silver, which are used to arm the exceptionally defensive forces that are stationed in the forts and castle that mark the edges of Vinsenian territory. Most of the working class are merchants and metalworkers, importing much of their foodstuff from their more agricultural neighbors. Until recently, the kingdom had almost no impact in any of the continent's affairs.
Vinsenia's army usually consisted of a large array of heavily armored infantry and archers, with horses being rather useless in the mountains. Spellcasters like mages were considered a rarity and usually were kept in the king's personal guard. Healers, however, while uncommon, were deployed with the standing army.
However, with the ascent of the new king and the absorption of the surrounding nations, the new army has swelled immensely. The largest part and standing force are still the heavy infantry and archers, but the acquisition of new commanders and forces have added a large number of horsemen(Mostly Cavaliers->Great Knights), quite a few fliers(with the vast majority being Wyvern riders), and quite a few addtional forces from various sources(Mages, Fighters, Mercenaries, and Myrmidons)
The usual emblem of a Vinsenian force is a stylized dragon coiling around a sword that points down, painted in white on black.

Other information about Vinsenia: Silver Dragon Knights are an elite unit of the heavy infantry.
The dragon motif is most likely due to the rumor that manaketes or Dragon Laguz once made their home in the mountains.
One of the only two countries in the mountains that holds a legendary item(That is known publicly): The Sword of Kings.
