Well, enemy thieves to kill is perfectly viable. I.e. they steal the shit, we murder them and take it. Happened often in Awakening but the thieves would also often speed off the map with the loot...

That ruins the surprise, though. xD and it means I can't have booby trapped chests.

You don't have to show us what the thief has before we get it... :P

Spoiler: UnseriousConcert (click to show/hide)

1st: Thanks Uxie. ^^^ It's a lot more backstory than I give most of my characters to start with, that's for sure. (The only one I put more into was Henry, and that turned out... disappointing. >.>)

2nd: The Crusader's skill Mission From God (only usable once per map, and it has to be my first action not counting moving I think) allows me to declare one First Class and its promotions and when I attack units of that class, I get WTA. The book says, however, that does not mean they don't get WTA as well, so if I were to declare a lance-using class as my enemy and then attacked them with a sword, we would both get the bonuses of WTA. At least, that's my understanding from the wording.

3rd: The healing skill is most useful in the early game, and it will be useful for Vulneraries all game, but when we get to Concoctions and Elixers it won't matter as much. Also, items tend to have a lot less uses per stack than staves, so it's not nearly as abusable. Finally, picking it up gave me the idea for the first paragraph of her backstory, so it has that going for it. :P



Yeah, thieves are generally an underused class as a whole. Probably because people like combat most and thieves are basically support units. That and if there's a door or chest on the map, they know what they have to do before they get to start fighting. Hopefully we'll get one, if not, eh.

Now that I have a "speaking" mug for Aenbarr in FOE's game, I'll just need to decide which concept of many to pick and work on for this game when I wake up.

Depending on how long it takes until selections are made, I might end up using a character sitting around with a nearly-done mug and which I was considering making into either a Mage Knight - not too likely in this game since we seem to have plenty of magic to toss around - or a Warrior. If I go with the latter I'll end up sorely missing Glowcat's Weighted Blow.

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.
>Yes?
"Could you guys also make a hamburger out of this arm when they cut it off? I wanted to eat it just for the sake of tasting it."
>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

Notice to Bluexdog: As things currently stand it is exceedingly likely your character as he is will not be accepted. 

1st: Thanks Uxie. ^^^ It's a lot more backstory than I give most of my characters to start with, that's for sure. (The only one I put more into was Henry, and that turned out... disappointing. >.>)

1) Now you've put more pressure on me to make sure this game goes well! >_>

2) Yeah, I'll allow it since it's a slightly more versatile version of the vs [First Class and Promotions] trigger and fits a Crusader's theme quite nicely. I'm assuming you mean when the WTA effect is in effect your skill triggers.

3) Hence why I'm letting you use it. :v



@FOE: Character seems fine. On another note...

OH GOD I FORGOT THE WEAPON GROWTH RULE. Do you guys think I should use it, or not? I mean, most games I've seen have had it...



You know, as it stands, there's really two directions I could take the plot. The more "regular" plot, or the SUPER ULTRA MEGA PLOT TWIST plot. Which do you guys think you'd prefer?

The Weapon Growth Rule? Isn't that just giving every character Discipline? If so I'll have to pick a new skill since that's what Ashlyssa has. Not that I would mind getting a free skill... :P

As for plot, I'd rather not discuss it either way. I dun like spoilers. :V

Do whichever one feels appropriate. Maybe decide at the point the plot twist would happen.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

If you did that I could take a different, perhaps more fitting, skill :P. I don't really care one way or another though, do what you want (this applies to both free!discipline and plot).

Announcement: Pseudodiscipline is now in the game. Those of you who took Discipline as a character skill may change it if you wish.

Quote from: Gameplay Changes
-Each character may increase one weapon subcategory that they already have access to by a single increment at level 10 first class, and level 10 promoted class.
