I’d like to make a note that I am probably going to keep the effective range from the games. Otherwise archers would be reaching most of the map, I believe. … Door key. *snicker* … I will note, you'll probably have needed to contend a lot with Jehanna mercenaries. Since, yeah, those lords and caravans you're attacking probably very frequently have the mercenaries of the desert protecting them. … Well, not anymore considering Jehanna is attacking Grado, but before that. … How does he react to Jehanna invading, anyways? While the main troop, King Sion and those, are not mean to citizens of Grado and is only going directly for the Fire Emblem there would be a fair amount of Jehanna guilds that took the option to just raid as they liked and such... Well, anyway. I'll leave that to you.

[hider]Aaaaah, aahahahaahaa-haaaahaahaaaa-hahahaha… I’m looking in your backstory, at the individual that caused your descent to bandithood… Haha… That kind of character! The kind that I utterly despise and would never willingly create under any sort of circumstance for any sort of reason because I am completely disgusted at how such existences could even come to be~! … It doesn’t seem like he dies in your backstory. *puppy eyes* Mind if I have Rioga gut him? And that I can write a long and detailed description of how he goes into great detail to cause the maximum amount of pain and suffering to that bloated obese figure of decay…! He's in my roleplay now, I can do whatever I want with him, now that I finally have such a character in my grasp I can completely torture and splash all his existence all over the walls and make the world DREAD to even DARE to be anything even REMOTELY similar to his kind of character in case they might suffer the same fate…! … … … … Heh. As much as I am appalled to actually have such an individual have any kind of role in this roleplay of mine, even more so if I have to play him, I suppose the pleasure of gutting him might be something I should properly give to my players for maximum enjoyment, I suppose? … Ti-hi…

*the above paragraph was not part of the judgment and should not be considered as such, it was simply PlatinumSkink as a person reacting as a proper person should, the existence of such individuals is OK and you do not need to worry about having offended anyone*

There are two little things I want to bring up. They’re not necessarily anything you need to change anything on, but I want to mention them. I did not imagine Grado to have been a particularly bad place to live. Sure, it would have been damaged from the Earthquake but otherwise recovering nicely, even if Jehanna mercenaries were stealing exp preventing the warriors from actually getting strong. However, your backstory describes the worst kinds of crapsack oppression by nobles against the people. Had Rioga heard of such happening in his empire, he WOULD gut the scum after a trial, he’s the Court Emperor for a reason. Though, you make this sound like a regular thing. I do admit that having to buy the mercenaries of Jehanna to fight monsters would most likely take a bit on the nation’s wealth, so perhaps the people would be somewhat poor, but… Yeah. Rioga is a leader who cares about his people, and he wouldn’t have let such a thing come to pass if he knew of it.

That is to say, it isn’t unacceptable because of this. We’re essentially living on a super-continent, and the Grado Empire is the largest there is and also the hardest to cross. Grado Keep is in the far east, it is possible things have taken a turn for the worse in the western areas, especially over seas or such. The reports could possibly be filled with lies, a secret held from their Emperor by corrupt lords… though, that pretty much changes the way half the nation is built, and it also rather drastically affects the aura of the nation. I mean, I was trying to go for a rather good aura to counter the corrupted aura Grado had in the game, but this kind of reverts that back to how it was with the Emperor just being the exception who is unknowingly ruling over an ailing nation not knowing the troubles going on. … Which honestly makes him a bad Emperor.

I am somewhat aware that I may be blowing things out of proportion with those statements, feel free to explain to me what you had in mind in terms of scale and that sort of thing. It is still perfectly acceptable, some conflict is alright, I just want to know how much this is affecting. I may have to write about this in the Grado portion of the Contents of Magvel post, after all, so the other players know what we’re dealing with.

As for the second thing, you write that you’re the leader of a merry band of bandits. I’m just curious, how are you intending on joining and what are you going to do with your band when you do? I mean, yeah, in Fire Emblem we don’t really have bands joining the team, perhaps two or three at a time as maximum, and I have to assume you do intend to join the party since that’s, well, the idea of this roleplay. Do you have an intention where you want to be placed when the roleplay starts and what development you’re otherwise expecting around that? If you don’t want to share those details with your fellow roleplayers yet, then feel free to provide me the information as a PM to me. I just feel a bit curious to how this is going to work, according to you.[/hider]

Other than that, you have quite the character here. It is quite evident you put quite a bit of writing into this character, too. The source of inspiration is pretty obvious, but eh, no faults in that. XD … Yeah, I could see this being quite the interesting individual to have around. There are no issues character-wise or such. You have spoken of his skill, which does explain the C-rank mastery, and bandit experience does merit Level 4. Yeah, everything checks out. I just want to hear you comment on that which I have mentioned above, first. Alright?

Edit: Also, those cards are pretty nice. How difficult is one to make? I mean, I have 20+ NPCs back here... XD
