I'd be really interested in participating, if you'd have me. Stats intrigue me, too.
Couple questions to flesh things out and get the brain juices flowing, though: What's the tone of this RP, as in will it be more happy-go-lucky or grittier? I'm assuming gritty from your premise, but Awakening had its light-hearted moments that mostly outshone the gloom of the story at large (like when Sumia decked Chrom in the face or most of the support conversations). Also, how descriptive will it be and what's its style? I was involved in a more medieval-realism one with Fire Emblem elements like the Laguz and magic, but I've seen some more fantastical ones as well.
