Fire Emblem on Forums: Seven Wishes of Hanako Saihara

"...Hey, Satoshi."
"Yeah?"
"I need you to promise me something."
"....don't give me such a strange look, Hanako. It feels like you're going to ask me something really serious."
"Satoshi, I'm serious."
"....okay, okay. I'll listen. What is it?"
"If everything changes, even if we move away from each other, even if I die....we won't ever stop being friends, will we?"
"...."
"D-don't stare at me like that! I'm being serious, Satoshi!"
"You're okay, right? It's just..."
"What do you mean by that?"
"....well, Hanako, we've known each other for so long, but....you're not the type to get so emotional. You always kinda tease me about it, you know."
"I'm just....it worries me, you know. I care about you guys more than you know. I don't want to lose what we have. This, you, our friends....this summer has been the greatest of my entire life. Tonight, under the stars....it just made me realise we don't have a lot of time in the world. So, Satoshi, I want you to promise me. No matter what happens, no matter if we all move away or grow apart or whatever....you won't let me go."
"...."
"Satoshi?"
"...you never had to worry about that, you know. Family means nobody left behind. But....if it would make you feel better, I promise you this, Hanako; as long as I live...I will always carry you with me, even if you disappear or move far away."
".....and I won't let you go, either. Thank you. I....really needed that, tonight."
....
That night feels so long ago, and yet it was two years ago. I....it's been so long. The promise I made that day....as long as I live, I'll keep it.

It's been two years, Saihara Hanako, and yet I still miss you.

I've been out of FEF for a long time, so let me know if I missed something obvious.



The thespian class seems a bit nuts (thief lockpicking, performer refreshing, and most crucially, the ability to take on the other ally's roles) but it should be fun to play and it fits well with the modern setting.

Thespians don't actually get access to refreshes (they can use performances to buff, but specifically don't have the ability to refresh turns). Lockpicking was just the natural result of them being a thief class (since making them a Perform class would have necessitated them getting a refresh, which would've been insanely busted).

I'm happy for that to be the case, makes a lot of sense (and frees them up from the tediousness of having to always refresh allies instead of doing their own thing). But, you might want to update the PDF in this case, as this is what it says:

Quote
Act:
The Thespian can refresh and/or use a Performance item on an ally within 2 spaces

damn

EDIT: I did check the text and it does also specifically say after that that refreshes are not possible with Thespians, but I have edited the text to clear that up.

I have some basic ideas for Minato ready, and I'll work on an actual sheet when I get the time.


"Of course, Satoshi, I'll be there if you need me."

Don't worry too much about the one mistake, Smoke Mirrors. Your character was memorable for all the demonology and story writing.

I’m running a game/mechanics test called Fate/Mechanics Test. Feel free to check it out.

First Review

Alllllriighty. Let's see what we got here. Next review will be on the 25th of September. We'll be reviewing you for both story and mechanical stuff.

notquitethere/Kaya Hawa
-snip-
Story-wise, a little thin. I'll be wanting a little more than that. A few things you might want to think about:
- What was his relation to Hanako and Satoshi?
- How did he react to the whole thing?
- What was his role in the friend group?
- What's he been up to in the two years since Hanako's death?
- What was he like two years ago? And now?
 Give both me and your fellow players something to work with. Some of the other bios provide a decent example of what I'm looking for with regards to biographies.

Mechanically....
- Your Character Skill section is wrong. Those are your Class Skills, which are not unique to your character but belong to the class you selected (aka, Thespian). You need to select a Character Skill from the approrpriate sections (i.e. Luna, Colossus, Charisma, etc.). Also, Act does not provide refreshes.
- Your Personal Fault and first Personal Skill are invalid. While I list Talk as a separate "action" of sorts, in reality it's just a formal way of saying "you can roleplay your way through some parts of the fight and if you do it well, I will reward you with EXP and items". As such, you cannot have Personal Faults or Skills based on Talk.
- Your second Personal Skill needs to be changed entirely, as this would stack a RIDICULOUS amount.

IcyTea31/Fujiwara Takeshi
-snip-
Leaving this for now. It's clearly unfinished, so I won't bother you too hard this time around.

Smoke and Mirrors/Minato Date
-snip-
Good to go, barring any numerical errors I might have missed (which I'll handle when I get to selection.)

SeriousConcentrate/Takeo Nagase
-snip-
Good to go.

TricMagic/?
-snip-
Leaving this for now.

SirAston/Kogen Mochizuki
-snip-
Story-wise, the only thing I would say is that Kogen would have to already have been in Iwatodai when she receives the call. Otherwise, you're good.

Mechanically, her PF would almost never trigger before Promotion. Please change this.

Gaterhyme/Ran Sasagawa
-snip-
Good to go.

Second Review

Anyone we've already cleared will be excluded from this, so we'll be reviewing a bit less. Next review will be on the 1st of October, shortly before selection. We'll be reviewing you for both story and mechanical stuff.

notquitethere/Kaya Hawa
-snip-
Good to go.

IcyTea31/Fujiwara Takeshi
-snip-
Finish this.

TricMagic/?
-snip-
Finish this.

SirAston/Kogen Mochizuki
-snip-
Good to go.

ctsun/Yayoi Shichimiya
-snip-
Good to go.
