I love magic in general, especially dark magic and the protagonist characters that use it. :D
Overall, with my general class preference to thieves/assassins/swordmasters, swords and knives also fall onto the list of things I like. :P
I'm in love with Lucia. I don't even care that she's statistically the worst Tellian swordmaster, I'll use her in all of my non-chellenge FE9/FE10 runs. <3
I remember searching for some NepheneexHeather fanart a while back...
So...much...yuri... o_0
In hindsight, I don't know how I couldn't have expected it. XD
Matthew is the sole purpose I got hooked on FE7 and the reason why assassins are my favorite class to have lying around even today. :D
There's just something about characters that put up such a jovial front, even when things get darker and more serious. :P
battle save abuse for +4 level-ups works wonders for pretty much every first-tier unit. When used in conjunction with boss abuse in 1-7 and 1-E to get everyone to second-tier, you'll end up with some pretty sweet powerhouses that can hold their own in the DB's part III battles easily enough.
Even still, their counterparts in the GM's will usually heavily outshine the DB because of the massive level lead. XD
