@Sho Minazuki
Welcome. Whiile it may not seem like it at the moment, trust me when I say, things will become very Fire Emblem-y, very fast, once the RP starts.

As for where the nation/country list is, it's still being worked on. Due to me catching a cold, progress on it has been slowed down. Hopefully, both it and the OOC should be ready this coming week though.

@Morgannis
I don't see anyhting wrong with Piper in terms of eother personality or backgorund. However, Monks cannot use Anima tomes, such as Wind, Frost, Thunder or Fire, they're restricted to Light magic. Also, all healing is done with staves or items.

You brought up some good questions though, and I'll answer them as best I can. Do remember that I'm still under the weather currently, so I might not explain things well or clearly.

Questions:
1. Are we using tomes or staves? I didn't really get into fire emblem engage, so I'm basing all of my class knowledge on three houses. If we use tomes, are we going to make it so durability is based off of the certain map/combat situation that we're on?
- As I said above, all healing is done with staves. When it comes to weapon durability, the onlyn things that'll use that are staves and thrown axe/sword/lance weapons. And items, of course. All healing staves will have 10 charge, and all throwable swords/lances/axes will have 5 charges, but the throwables are recoverable during or after combat, if a player wants to send time picking them back up. Players will be (largely) responsabile for keeping track of these numbers themselves, though I'll try to help - and tell you that you're "out of ammo" - if overuse seems to be happening.

2. I wasn't really sure if you wanted to include magic+ skills, or skills that give us a stat advantage?
- Since this RP doesn't raelly rely on stats, thereäs no issue with taking "stat boost" skills. ALl that means is that you'll be slightly stronger/better in whichever category the boost is given. So, for example, if you have the Magic +2 skill, your magic will be a bit more potent than those mages of equal experience/competency as you.

3. Did you want us to learn those later if they are allowed to be included, or can we start with them?
- All I want is that players start off with reasonable and fair skills. DOn't start off with skills/abilities that a character would gain in-game once they hit something like Level 12+ or things that an inexperienced/new/fresh adventurer/mercenary/solider wouldn't have, like the legendary technique of Astra/Sol or Luna... As long as you do that, it's fine. You'll be able to learn more skills/abilities as the RP progresses, so there's no need to worry. By the end, you'll all be grizzeld, ass-kicking behemoths who trample (most) things... Except for all the Elites and Boss enemies... *cough*

I hope that answers your questions.

To the rest of you, sorrry it's taking a bit of time. I'm sadly not going to be able to get the OOC up this weekend as I'd planned - due to illness. But I'll try to get things up and running this coming week, provided nothing major or unexpected comes up.

Thank you again for your patience and interest in this idea. :)

I went ahead and changed her equipment! I completely missed that monks could only use light aspected magic, whoops! 🤭

There's a class I want to make my character, but it's inexplicably gender locked. fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Brawler

I just want to make a woman with big fist weapons. is that ok?

If you don't mind throwing in some healing, War Cleric and Martial Monk are fist fighting classes too.
Although I agree gender-locked classes are kinda dumb.

*looks up both of those* oooh War Cleric is just what I'm looking for! Thank you! Though maybe I'll start her as a healer? Do we have a healer yet?

@Morgannis made a monk named Piper, but having a second healer wouldn't be a bad thing.

I'm working on my dude. Kinda realizing how 'Deus Vult' he kinda is lol.

It's my intention that there'll be no gender-locked classes in this RP. So feel free to make wha'chu want. :)

Jeez, I didn't realize just how many interested people there were for this until I had to send out this all-call.

Anyway, I'm sad to report that I am apparently sick. As my (previous) status implied, I went to the doctors to have myself checked up, on account of not having been feeling well for several days, and for not seeing any improvement (I've actually felt like it's been getting worse). Turns out I have some kind of infection in me ol' bod', and got myself a nice fat presciprtion from medicine to take. Antibiotics, to be specific.

This has led to two very unfortunate circumstances:

1. It's caused my panic anxiety which has for quite some time been alright to resurface. On account of the whole, my brain going: HOLY FAKKEN SHIT, YU MIGHT CROAK! - thing. I know it's not very likely, on account of the doctors finding it and me getting meds for it, but it still makes my subconscious go to all the worst cases and scenarios, which - as you might guess - is kinda putting a lot of strees on my already tired and weary person.

2. Since I've been sick, and will likely continue to be so for at least another week (hopefully the mds will cure that if they take, otherwise I'll have to get stronger stuff if there's no improvement by next week) I've not exactly been making any major headway or progress on the RP. Partly because sick, tired and not able wor think or write very well, and partly because the above.

In addition to this, the next week I was supposed to do a lot of RL things for my eyes. However, as I'm sick, that'll have to be post-poned, which means my schedule is going to get cramped and become very dense, following my (hopeful) recovery.

Ultimately, this has led to me to come to the conclusion that right now probably isn't a good time for me to try and start up and GM an entire RP as elaborate as this. I could tell you that: "Hey, don't worry, I'll be back in shape NEXT week and we can start things up then!" - but given taht I already promised you guys that we'd get stuff up THIS week, and I won't be able to fulfill that, I feel like my credibility would be - to put it mildly - questionable at that point.

I know this'll be disappointing,a nd some of you might not consider joining anything I make in the future - which is completely fair. However, I felt that I should inform and be transparent about this, rather than sit and make up excuses or keep you all in the dark... Or just let the topic drop down into obscurity and never respond to it again in the hopes that you'd all forget about it. I'm rambling, huh? Yeah, my brain feel like mush and I'm a bit dizzy atm... Please forgive any spelling or grammar mistakes I mighta made, or if something doesn't seem cohernet.

Still, I wanna thank everyone who showed interest and were active and invested in this idea. It really was nice to see people who were inspired to participate in this idea of mine Hopefully, all or at least some of us can meet again in either a future RP, or someone else's creation.

• Me confirmed sick
• Unable to launch RP
• CHristmas cancelled
• Big sad

@Xaltwind I know things happen (Things are happening to me as we speak, I'm sick and supposed to head to Rhode Island for a funeral). I hope you feel better, and this ruins nothing. Thank You.

@Xaltwind I hope you feel better soon, and that this doesn't cause anymore issues with getting your eyes worked on! Your plots look fun and engaging, and I'll definitely be on the lookout when you come around for a new RP!

I got laid off yesterday... Shit sucks all over. *hugs everyone*

Tag me for the next one. Please feel better. (Take all the antibiotics please, even after you feel better. Also if you're on daily meds double check with your doc about interactions...) LOL random medical knowledge from someone who's had too many doctors.

@Xaltwind

I'm sorry this is all happening to you like this. Take care of yourself. If you do launch this again, let me know. But there's no rush. Do what you need to.

Hope you get better.

It happens and just focus on getting well.

Focus on recovery first!
