PLAYER: Bani
CHARACTER: Eliwood
CANON: Fire Emblem: Blazing Blade

AU NAME: Eliwood [Insert Last Name Here]. I'm debating on even keeping Eliwood or not but I'd kind of prefer to. Feel free to throw suggestions at me.
AU AGE: 17
AU OCCUPATION: College Student
BLURB:
*Has lived in Recolle his whole life
*Comes from a known and very well off family of respected politicians who kind of doted on him.
*In college majoring in Psychology with minor in Political Science
*Got bullied a lot as a kid cause he was the quiet shy smart boy who got the best grades and kept to himself mostly, parents probably considered homeschooling him at some point
*Much more introverted and lacking confidence and a backbone than he is in canon. He's a very humble guy in game but here just amp that up to borderline self depreciation. More wary of people than he is canonically and less likely to initiate a conversation but as long as someone else leads it they'll find a compassionate, intelligent, empathetic and patient person.
*Easy teasey target
*Can't fight or defend himself worth beans
*Has probably either donated to or volunteered for several charities on an extremely frequent basis because he wants to still see the good in people, visits places like orphanages regularly because it's sobering and he has a massive soft spot for children (granted he's a sentient soft spot), heavily considering a particular focus on Child Psychology as a result of it, never feels like he can quite do enough for the people who aren't as well off as he has been.
*Seriously though this man is an actual saint for how anti-social he may come off as.
LOOKING FOR:
*Other people from well off families in Recolle?
*People he went to school with either early or currently
*Other people who volunteer
*Someone who will give this man a competitive edge or something
*MORE FIRE EMBLEMS?? ~~especially classic FE like holy hecks~~
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I haven't RPed in a few years and I'm slightly intimidated admittedly but I'm gonna do my best to get back into this with Best FE Lord.

Easy target to tease you say? But yeah Shinn's here is a freshman, so they can probably totally hang after some general classes, since yea he's taking a lot of them for his first quarter.

Very easy to tease. Don't make him angry ~~he might want to cry.~~ But I'm down for them hanging out at some point :> I imagine with those courses Eliwood is probably taking a number of classes too.

Eliwood!

Okay! So I actually am considering apping this newer Lord. But I'm not sure how to have them know one another yet outside of volunteering together. And me apping him is tentative ATM anyway.

What I can offer instead would be a fellow college student in Penelo from FFXII (

mincingminuet) who I already have in teh game. She's a student at Recolle U and is a few years older, but with a friendly streak a mile wide. She's the kind of person who'd stick up for him, and push him. Also give him some real grief for being a total nerd if he needs it.

I'm sure at some point he could come across Chrom through that kind of work. Even if not Chrom though, Penelo sounds like an excellent person for him to be around to whip him into shape too... god knows he'd need it.

porque no los dos? Even if I don't app this dork until next round.

And Pen sure will. And if she doesn't she can introduce him to her big brother Frank Castle or her family friend Gabranth. they'll man him up quick.

...

[TACO PARTY!!!!]

But yes, all of these options are excellent. RIP Eliwood it's time to Make a Man out of You.

HERE HAVE A DIFFERENT SILLY BLUE-HAIRED FRIEND

Kurt here is also a college student from a well-off family (from the entertainment industry rather than politics, though!). He lived in Recolle as a kid, and then he spent his high school years in a mix of homeschooling and private classes while he was starring in a tv show. Now that the show's on hiatus, he's been able to come and attend public college. If it's okay with you, they could have been friends when they were kids before Kurt went away, especially both coming from rich families? Or they can just have met in college, whatever you're down for

(also dat user name)

ALL BLUE HAIRED FRIENDS ARE ACCEPTABLE!! What else is acceptable is Eliwood having a friend at some point during his younger Recolle days since he'd need to have someone around to talk to at least. I imagine they could have met through some sort of High Profile Gathering of Some Sort and hit it off. Then maybe meet up again in college at some point?

~~i take 0 credit for this username joke but it is brillinat~~

Edited 2017-04-11 01:56 (UTC)

GOOD TO HEAR. Good to hear on both counts!! Meeting at ye old high profile gathering sounds legit, as does reuniting in college! Let it be so!

Looking for Fire Emblems??!!

--I admit, I haven't touched the Classic FEs because of the distinct Lack of Casual Mode, but that hasn't stopped my interest in learning as much as I can about the canons without needing to abuse save states. Regarding plotting, I'm not entirely sure what to offer you CR wise since I'm not yet 100% certain I'm apping this round, but Robin is currently assisting with the local library and archival facilities in Recolle.

He also has an interest in psychology. Odds are that they could have run into eachother among the shelves as well, because Robin is likely to just start reading all of the books he's supposed to be organizing.

Fire Emblems, yes.....

and it's okay classic FE is kind of rough with the permadeath.... Fire Emblem Heroes does help a bit there at least. You know exploitative gacha aside. But if you go through with apping Robin I'm pretty sure he'd run into Eliwood studying at some point like that cliche of going for the same book and then ~~You gain an S support~~ you hit it off.

Hey, if it works it works.

aaaah yes more Fire Emblems...!!!!

Minako puts half her life into the volunteer association at Recolle so maybe they've seen each other around? She's double majoring in criminology and psychology too so maybe they have some classes together :3

MINAKO!!!

VOLUNTEER BUDDIES HECK YEAH!!! I'm absolutely sure they'd have ran into eachother in volunteer work if she puts that much time considering he would also put that much time into it.

another person who likes P3P?! /)O uO)/)!!

yes she is a whirlwind of activity who sometimes has trouble taking breaks so he can be her quiet reminder person or something like that! :3 and vice versa she can be the person to prod at him when he needs to get out!

hello!! mafuyu is a year younger than him, but has also lived in recollé all her life, so it's possible they'be known each other from way back! or are friends, in which case she would fight anybody for him. or she could be one of those kids who heckled him in grade school, making him do her homework and stealing the cookie from his lunchbox or something idk
