Savo Time to go to Hell

Member Seen 1 day ago

I mean, I sort of have an idea for what route I might have in store with him, whether it be swords, axes, or magic, but for now here's what I have set up. Someone who has and lacks an identity. There's no amnesia, but there is some mystery involving the circumstances behind his bloodline. May or may not come up, yet will probably play a role in his growth.

Also, I'm still in the midst of working on the backstory, but I primarily want to know what tweaking I might need to make to the ability and possibly anything else. Also, I get the feeling that there are plenty of people with Cosmic so far, plus I'm between rolling with Astral or Cosmic for my pc so that might be subject to change.




"Sorry lass, but I'm livin' life on my own terms!"

Profile
Name: Einar
Gender: Male
Age: 21

Personality:
You would be hard pressed to find someone more self-assured and even more prideful than the most rich nobles and skillful knights beyond the fringes of the empire than this wandering Mercenary. Einar wears his confidence on his sleeve and makes sure to display it in full force with his haughty, boastful nature that is less befitting of his position than anything else. Adding onto this, he's blunt when he wants to be and quite courteous when he find it to either be beneficial or if he wants to get into the skirt of a lady. All in all, he can just be a straight up asshole at times.

This doesn't mean his completely cruel or daft, as Einar is a man who life the way he wishes. He'll boast about what he can do the best, sure, but he isn't the type to try and one-up someone unless its a contest. If anything, he'll show more of a natural curiosity towards any sort of subject, whether it be the fine arts, magic, or politics just to name a few examples. Einar has a passion for learning about new things almost all the time, finding that to be a fulfilling life. To follow that curiosity is his tendency to mull over and analyze anything he learns or observes as well.

Most of all, due to his lifestyle, he is also extremely greedy and can have a bit of a habit of hoarding useless knickknacks at times that he states he'll try to sell for a pretty penny. To add insult to injury, for everything else he analyzes, he is poor in sense when it comes to managing his own gold. More often than not, he'll tend to spend too much gold at times, sometimes leaving him impoverished and unable to afford a room at the inn or even a bowl of gruel.

Backstory:
Einar, strangely enough, is an amalgamation of the different nations embodying the continent, whether it be a constant desire to learn and collect information like those from Dinas Afaraon, a fighting style similar to those of the knights in Reynes, and even having the physical build of a Themysciran but the face of a Lothian. However, all these traits and features were unified under the reality that Einar himself doesn't have a home to return to. The closest thing he can call a home are the roads he traverses and the inns he sleeps in.

Even the circumstances revolving around his birth are a peculiar anomaly, as a band of mercenary's found the wee babe at their camp in the morning, swaddled in the midst of their campsite. As far as they knew, no sane traveler would of traveled along the forested path they had carved for themselves in secret through the Lothian Empire, much less follow them up the mountains. Furthermore, the closest town was days away and their two lookouts patrolling the camp at night noted that they saw no one enter the site.

It was quite strange, bizarre even for these turns of events, even going so far as to baffle them all for days on end about this whole situation. However, the one thing they absolutely didn't consider was leaving the baby for dead; they were professionals, but they even had standards when it came to human life. However, very few considered keeping the child around, opting to find the next town and not only look for a job there, but to ensure this kid found a proper family. Ironically enough, this group of mercenaries, known as the Ravencrest Company, would come to be his family for the next fifteen years.

@Sho Minazuki Sure! Would you say the main issue is the stat increases or the mount aspect? I would prefer to do something like keep the mount aspect and drop the stat increase to like, 2 at most but you're right, most of the combat would be mounted so if the connection to being mounted is the issue I can think up something else!

@Sho Minazuki Looks rad. I liked the GBA Fire Emblem games a lot but never played the other. Is the Lord spot still open or does your character take that? I'm interested in a somewhat morally-ambiguous lord who uses dark magic.

@Yankee The combination more or less. I'd say the best approach is to tone down the bonuses. Sticking with Sunbeam seems to be in character to her so you need only change the bonuses.

@Savo Pretty good. You may need to pm me the details of his birth though. Still, everything else is filled out just fine.

Only thing is the ability is a bit too difficult to do. The increased evasion is fine, there's no numeric for it, just an influencer, but the active portion is the main problem. Please keep it simple. I don't currently have ideas you may consider but this and needing to know your backstory is really all that's needed.

@Spike Lord spot is for additional Lords. The character Alnard doesn't count for the player lord spot. If you want to discuss it I'm willing because the spot does require some specifics.

I will say the system when I set out to make a Fire Emblem RP was heavily based off of the GBA games, but 3H had a great system I saw was well suited to accentuating individual growth, and then this RP's system was born.

@Bloodwolf 2 You can only start with one talent, so pick between Sword and Bow. Just a note, having a Talent doesn't mean it's the only weapon you can use, you can use others, but it will simply be suboptimal.

The ability Invisible Hunter is still an issue. There's no stealth system in this RP, so really based on that description, you could technically score a critical hit every time you fight anything besides mages and beasts.

My suggestion would be to make you get an increased chance to critically strike when hiding in any terrain. If you do this, you don't need to have the condition that only mages and beasts can detect you, you can get that bonus so long as you're using terrain.

@Bloodwolf 2 Looks good. I'd say probably save the picture and upload it to imgur for your appearance. Pinterest is kinda iffy to use for display.

Also maybe some formatting to make it look nice.

Otherwise, I think it's ready to put into the characters section.

@itano123 You're only really missing your personal ability, but everything else checks out. Let me know when you've gotten to that.

More has been added to the Camp System page. Be sure to read

Dance is an ability, not a talent. You'd more or less be training her sword or magic skills in this case.

@Sho Minazuki I've changed the ability to a simple DEX+2 while mounted on Sunbeam. Is that alright?

Got a minor issue, Imgure won't let me use the site on my phone and my laptop has recently lost its anti-virus protection so I'd rather not go online until I get it sorted.i've done a bit of formatting as well making a lot of the title bold.

If you go to safe sites, lack of anti-virus isn't a problem. It's only a problem if you're browsing. If you're in and out it's not a big deal.

Problem is just using pinterest won't let you imbed the image onto the forum, so if you find some other way to do it, you may. So long as it's a more convenient link.

Everything else is fine though, you can add that to the character tab, just be sure to fix the image up when you can.

I would recommend imgur cause it's easy upload and get link without needing to sign up or anything so it's very convenient!

Also NUOOOOOOOOO I didn't think about that, oh well I mean dancer unit is mostly only good for the dance ability, magic was just for added support utility. I RP for character interactions
