NOBLE EMBLEM: THE FIRE EMBLEM SHORTGAME OF POLITICAL INTRIGUE IN RANDOM FANTASY WORLD.

Noble Emblem 1: IC Thread!

In Noble Emblem, 8 players take the roles of guardians and mercenaries hired to ensure the safety of a young noble amidst terrible plot to bring him down and throw the duchy/kingdom/country into chaos.

All PCs:
-Start at First Class, level 1.

Guard PCs:
-Minimum 3, maximum 5.
-Can start with a Support C Rank with one other Guard or the NPC Noble.
-They are of noble/court parentage or from families serving the NPC Noble.
-Start with Iron-grade weapons and a Vulnerary, but no Gold.

Mercenary PCs:
-Number of Mercs depends on number of Guards.
-Can start with a Support C Rank with one other Mercenary. Only one Support pairing allowed in the Merc group.
-They work together for short but undefined period of time (leaving that to Mercs!)
-Start with Iron-grade weapon and 300 Gold; these can be bartered with GM for a different weapon (Slim/Steel) or an item or two.

QUESTION ONE: Wtf Haspen don't you have enough FEFs already?

Well, yes, but see, the other FEFs are major projects that will go for a year or maybe more.

Noble Emblems will go two, three months tops, as the amount of Chapters for them will be between 3 to 5.

QUESTION TWO: Do we have to roll new characters for this?

Yes, absolutely - you cannot use FEF1/FEF2 char for this.

However! You can re-use Noble Emblem character from one story in another! I keep base stats on the sheets, so it's just a matter of erasing level up rolls and resetting inventory, battle stats and supports back to zero.

QUESTION THREE: Any restrictions to poor, Fire Emblem-starved FEF players?

Yes, at least for the first Noble Emblem; only one Guard PC and one Mercenary PC can belong to a user that played both FEF1 and FEF2. This restriction works no matter how long you played; one chapter, or from beginning to the end.
If you played only one of FEFs, you can freely join the 1st Noble Emblem.

QUESTION FOUR: Any changes? What about terrain?

Class Changes and Terrain are the same as in FEF2, which you can see here.

say, reversing that little "teleport" stunt by warping out after grabbing a random person...

Oooooooh.

Yeah, you will avoid death by snake one way or another. Plot armor there v:

Now you have a place where you can post your spoilers with wild abandon :3c

The moment after which Edwin put the Rogue to sleep, the crystal on top of the staff blinked with power for the last time and then cracked.

Staff hit: (30+[{27-9}x5]+25)-(8x2) = 30+80+25-16 = 119, autohit!
Rogue A is asleep!

Sleep (staff) breaks!

Charlotte wounds closed magically.

10+27 = Up to 37HP restored

I just finished the game, as in, got to the Coronation, with desperate flailing and absurb amount of re-loading and let me tell you:


I wish IronyOwl good luck

Miguela will put on old lady's hat and smite the infidels with her halberd-broom?
