So, I couldn't find it in the fluff...
What exactly is an Argoth?

[Furtuka]

It's the in universe term for the mechs.

[scapheap]

I added Bio and change my character name from Kayla to Kayle.

[Furtuka]

That hometown XD

[Rolepgeek]

Just looking over it, a lot seems changed from Fire Emblem. Things are a lot more hostile towards the players; the skills and such are less beneficial. There's also some HUGE Damage boosts, but much smaller Hit boosts. Relatively, that is; +5 Damage is much higher/better than +10 Hit. Cannons and Muskets just seem like you would never want to use them; a lot heavier than bows, and the slight increase in power is more than compensated by the bow user simply adding their STR. Some things seem like they'd be great and why would you ever not want to have them(Ejectable Armor, Zoom Lens), while others make you question why you would ever have them(Sealed Armor, Spirit).

Also, for the Spider and Zoom Lens, does that mean you can fire up to twice as far away? Or that your range is increased to that? And do they stack?

EDIT: Also, if there are no Trainee classes, and thus no D or E ranks, why have them?

DOUBLEDIT: Some weapon trees/classes just seem poor in comparison to other ones. Claws are objectively worse than Swords, for example, disregarding the special things each of them get. And in most of those cases, swords are better, too!

Hmm... I'll need to look at that I guess.

It's from your regular range, with the outer bounds of said range modified. And yes they do, but the Spider ability is applied after the Len's is.

 

EDIT: Also, if there are no Trainee classes, and thus no D or E ranks, why have them?

That's because I put them in just in case I decide to make more editions in the future.

[Powder Miner]

Claws are also strictly better than fangs.

[Rolepgeek]

Eh...not really. Fangs have a slightly lower Weight, in exchange for a slightly lower Hit value. Silver Fangs and Orichalcum Fangs are significantly better than their Claw counterparts, though. Since it's easier to get more Hit than it is to get more Con, Proficiency Bonus, or Speed, I'd say Fangs tend to be better than Claws. But they're also in the same triangle which makes it difficult to tell.

[Nerjin]

I uh... I edited my thing a while ago. forgot to tell you I think. Is Sacha accepted?

[Furtuka]

By Move at half speed in your personal fault are you referring to a reduction to your speed stat, or your MOV?

[Nerjin]

MOVement. I'm editing the skill to reflect this.

[Furtuka]

Alright, accepted.

5, 8

Dark or Water?

Also is Frollo's voice just suppose to be Sacha being insane?

Spoiler: Kester Utheris/Carsinque (click to show/hide)

Character Name: Kester Utheris
Class: Beast
Skill: Vantage
Argoth Name: Carsinque/Forest Monger/Green Beetle(Latter two are affectionate nicknames)
Argoth Description: Carsinque is smaller than most Argoths, but is still quite strong, boasting six limbs that can function as legs or weapon-arms as necessary. It is painted in splotches and streaks of various shades of green and brown, and is smoothly built as a whole, but seems rough and uneven up close. Carsinque's 'head' looks almost organic, parts of it seem to move inexplicably, and the eye-runes glow with an eerie light...Dirt, trees, and plants cover the Argoth, forming thick patches in many areas, and contributing to his ability to remain undetected in the wilderness, but loosen the armor and weaken the joints.
Affinity: Anima
Personal Skill: Leaps and Bounds: If the Argoth does not attack this round, +1 MOV.
Personal Skill: Camouflage: If the Argoth is on Forest terrain, +15 Evasion
Personal Fault: Loose Armor Plates: If the Argoth has less than 40% HP, -2 DEF.

Bio: Kester was born and raised in Jenma, and grew up exploring the swamps and ruins. When he was drafted into the military, due to his family being unable to pay government debts, he was found to be an excellent scout. When he tried out for piloting an Argoth, he turned out to be even better at that, particularly when the two roles were combined. His reflexes and coordination transfer themselves well to the machine he now pilots, as if it was alive to respond to him. However, he has discipline issues, and the Argoth seems be influencing his personality.

[Furtuka]

Looks good. Though may I request that you change the part about Carsinque being organic to only appearing to be so? It conflicts with the lore at this point in the timeline.

[Rolepgeek]

Sorry, I meant it only seems organic; just typed the wrong thing. And that, you know, there's a lot of roots and shit.
