Personally, I'd go for Ebony Armor with a circlet instead of a helmet (obviously) and an enchanted one-handed weapon without a shield. I haven't played Fates yet, so I've probably forgotten parts about Xander's design. Vampire Royal is probably more fitting because of the cape though.

I love The Elder Scrolls, but I can never express how much I likr the games in words. I've only played the main games, so for me it's Morrowind > Skyrim > Oblivion > Daggefall Morrowind is simply amazing in so many ways. Great story, writing and lore, amazing soundtrack, neat graphics, unique world, factions, good designs, fun spells and the game is weird in a good way. To me, it has aged fairly well, and is one of my favourite RPGs for many reasons. Skyrim is easily the one I've spent most time in, though I play it on console because my PC can't run it. I have so many complaints about the game, I can't even begin to list them all. Most of them are related to the guilds, the civil war (I liked the idea, not how it was executed), how some mechanics were simplified and the countless bugs and crashes. Even so, I didn't put 400+ hours into the game without a reason - it's deeply flawed and could be improved in many ways, but I love it despite that. Also, the environments are beautiful. Oblivion was the first one I played, so it has some kind of special place in my heart, I guess. It's the ES game I find the least interesting to play - nothing in the game appeals to me in particular, it feels more generic than the other titles. It hasn't aged very well either. I like it and I think it's a good game, and that's about it. I haven't played Daggerfall that much, but I like the little I have played except for the broken dungeons and somtimes the controls. I especially like the lore and story in this game, it feels very 1990's RPG-ish without being too bland. I've barely played Arena at all, so I can't judge it fairly. I barely made it out of the tutorial dungeon.

If there's a good reason for them to be in the game story-wise, I want them. If they're just shoehorned in for no good reason, I can do without.

I'm fine with them returning, as long as there's an option to turn them off and no cheesy one-liners. Not that I expect them to be removed.

Mist has a really short one before Ike fights Zelgius, IIRC.

Mustafa: "I cannot defy the king, lad. I know him well. He would murder my wife and child to set an example. I will accept the blame for your actions today. Now go!" Sounds more like those who don't obey orders get their families murdered to me.

Out of the handheld Fire Emblem games, Shadow Dragon easily has my favourite soundtrack. The remixes are pretty nice and most of the new songs are great. My favourites are: Fire Emblem Theme Footsteps of Fate Trouble The Time to Act Come, Join Us After the Battle A Hero's Destiny (easily my favourite map theme in the series) The Proud Commander Clash of Two Virtues

I'll pass.

Mist?

Wyvern Riders/Dragon Riders and their promotions for sure. Not only do they fly dragons, they're usually great units as well. I can't think of anything more awesome than that. I also like Heroes, Sages, Mage Knights, Paladins, Generals, Soldiers and most Lords.

I know a Marcus, Oscar, Oliver, Anna, Victor, Henning, Erik, Lena, Julia, Tina, Stefan, Johan, Robin, Leif, Sigrun, Rolf, Maria, Ellen, Elliot, Emil, Isaiya, Rebecca, Tomas, Katarina, Paul, Karel, Noah, Cecilia, Karin, Kris and a Linda. And maybe a few more that I can't remember at the moment.
