Thread name should explain this. Also someone tell a mod to move this if it should be somewhere else, I'm not certain where to post such question threads or if we have a dedicated general Fire Emblem question thread. Anyways, I know some canonical ages for characters - Lyndis is 1815, Eliwood and Hector are 17, Marth is 15-17 depending on the game, Roy is about 16, Tiki is 3k or thereabouts, Myrrh is "1,200 years…roughly" but are there any other characters we have established ages for? Are there any characters you guys have headcanon ages for and would you mind sharing them here for my benefit…I mean, for everyone's benefit? The reason I'm asking is for my writing - making relatively random pairings for characters across various games is surprisingly obnoxious to write, and a better grasp of where characters fit into an age-based list will in theory help me to make the pairings more believable as well as help with my general writing of those characters.

So I'm sure some of you have noticed the fancy Thread detailing high-tier tourney-winner Cipher decks on here. So did I. But what about players who want ideas for casual/cheap/silly decks they can goof around with and are struggling with the all-too-familiar DeckBuilder's Block? That's where posts like this come in, of course! I was digging through my old decklist ideas on my FE Wikia account's Blog Posts, and found myself wondering if someone on here would enjoy checking them out - I mean, I like reading other people's deck ideas, so maybe it works the other way around. Anyways, I put up a quick post asking if that sort of thing was alright, and Kirie said yeah as long as I followed the rules and the like. Quick confession, Kirie: I know I said I'd read the rules before I put this up, but…I haven't read them yet. My apologies for my dishonesty. Moving on, here is an oldie-but-goodie of mine: Whitewing Beatdown! INTRO: This is the first deck I ever built myself, from cards scavenged from the extra bulk of my fellow players. Originally a basic Yuzu MC deck with some N/HN cards and two copies of the S1 3/2 Catria as my heavy-hitters, I eventually purged the lesser cards in favor of more Whitewing cards. Later, Minerva joined the deck after I got beat up by an old Minerva deck of my friend's and decided she'd do great in my Red deck. I still have work I want to do on it to make it better, but for now it's still fun to play. THE LIST: Yuzu - White Cost 1(B03-075N) x3, Red Cost 3/2 Sniper(B04-050HN) x4, Red Cost 3/2 Hero(B04-049HN) x4 <- Main Character Minerva - Red Cost 1(B01-031N) x1, Red Cost 4/3(B01-030R) x4, Red Cost 5/4(B04-036SR) x1 Palla - Red Cost 1(B01-039N) x4, Red Cost 2(B04-026N) x1, Red Cost 3/2 Valentian Falcon Knight(B09-035HN) x1, Red Cost 3/2 Archanean Falcon Knight(B01-038R) x4 Catria - Red Cost 1(B01-041N) x4, Red Cost 2(B04-027N) x1, Red Cost 3/2 Valentian Falcon Knight(B09-036HN) x1, Red Cost 3/2 Archanean Falcon Knight(B01-040R) x4 Est - Red Cost 1(B01-043N) x1, Red Cost 2(B04-028N) x4, Red Cost 3/2 Valentian Falcon Knight(B09-037HN) x1, Red Cost 3/2 Archanean Falcon Knight(B01-042R) x4 Maria - Red Cost 1(B01-033N) x2, Red Cost 3/2(B01-032HN) x1 STRATEGY: This is a very simple deck great for teaching new players with as it has almost nothing complicated to it - you get the Whitewings out, and you Triangle Attack until the other guy loses. So why Yuzu as MC? Truth be told, it was because I built the deck right after Set 4 came out and was trying to make a cheap Red Deck, and Yuzu's Cost 3/2 Hero jumped out at me. For the uninitiated and those too lazy to click the link above and read it for yourself, basically, she gains an extra 10 ATK whenever she's supported by a Sword, Lance, or Axe Unit. This seemed like a great card to use with pretty much any Flier Unit as Yuzu would hit 100 pretty much every time she attacked or was attacked. The Whitewings are fairly simple cards that have a surprisingly rare type of skill - From-Deck Deployment. For whatever reason, Cipher only has like 5 or 6 cards with skills that get anything out of the Deck - off the top of my head I know of the 3 Cost 1 Whitewing cards, Caeda's 4/3, Lyon's 4/3, Michalis' current only card, and Est's Cost 2, though I may have missed one or two. Anyways, all three Cost 1 Whitewing cards have the skill "Pegasus Sister Trio", which allows you to Tap the Whitewing in question and Flip 2 Bonds to Deploy a Cost 2 or lower card of either of her sisters from the Deck. Est's Cost 2, meanwhile, has the skill "Est's Bagpipes" - yes, that is the name, don't ask me why she has bagpipes, maybe it's a mistranslation - which allows you to Tap her and an Ally Palla or Catria to Deploy any Cost 2 or lower Red Flier from the Deck. I have four of the Cost 2 Est because it's arguably a touch more versatile than the Cost 1 cards of all three, but you can of course mix and match based on preference/budget. I only have one Cost 1 Minerva because of availability issues, but she's mostly there as a target for Est's Cost 2 and as discard fodder for the 5/4 Minerva, which is there as a Rally card. The only issue with that in this list is that Yuzu is not a Flier card and is consequently not a valid target for Minerva's Rally buff, and so I'll also be adding a couple alternate lists below for those of you who would like to give this kind of deck a try without using Yuzu. This Post ends here, mostly because SoulWeaver is kind of lazy. He'll come back and Edit most of the rest of the Post within the next two or three days, unless he forgets, in which case someone tag him on here and remind him.

So I'm curious - would you guys read/contribute to a post or set of posts involving users(including myself) submitting Decklists and Deck ideas and the like? Would such a post/s even be allowed in this section or would we need a new subsection for it? I've done this before elsewhere, so I'd be happy to start with my own ideas if you guys want proof that I'm serious. It'd be preferable if a mod for this section let us know first and foremost if we're allowed to post that kind of thing(and how to do so - one big thread, a thread for each contributor's ideas, or a separate thread for each contribution?) before people start saying they want to see our Decklists or contribute their own, but if you'd be interested, hey, this would be a good place to know I guess! Some quick clarifications as well for anyone who would be interested(assuming it's allowed of course)... This is a Discussion Forum. Someone's gonna tell you your Decklist sucks for X reason. Obviously you shouldn't be posting Decklists if you can't handle someone critiquing/criticizing your ideas. Continuing that note, please try not to be a jerk about other people's Decklists - some people spend lots of time coming up with their Decklists, and telling them their beloved Deck is a pile of (censored) is obviously not cool. At least try to be nice about telling someone they'd lose to two Starter Decks shuffled together. Obviously, we want to keep joke Decklists to a minimum to reduce spam - we would want you to try to be relatively serious. There are of course exceptions, like the fun concept of a 100-card all-Anna Decklist(don't post that though because it's kind of obvious how that would be run), but we don't want to spam this joint with a bunch of "LOL Decklist containing every single card in the first three sets" or comparably ridiculous ideas, both because then people wouldn't be able to find actually serious stuff in the middle of all the LOList junk and because someone would let Eclipse ban me for suggesting the idea in the first place and I'd rather not have that happen please. Anyways, someone tell me if we can do that, and if so let me know if that sounds like a good/fun idea! BTW, I'm not following this Post and won't be notified if you respond unless you either quote me or tag me. Just so you guys know.

please don't kill me if I put this in the wrong category this is only my second Topic I swear So for those of you who don't know me, I'm working on a huge written story involving a group called the Wanderers, made up of characters from across the FE universe and then some. This would be fine and dandy, but every one of them is supposed to take up an alias to prevent…um…stuff…anyways, I'm having difficulty with aliases for several characters. I'm also having difficulty figuring out who I want to recruit from each game - I plan on including about 10 characters from the worlds of all of the games with possible exception of Jugdral for reasons I'd rather not discuss. Yes, yes, I know that means I'm writing around 13 games' worth of story and over 100 characters, please just let me do my thing. So far, I have several Rosters up to halfway, and Fates is pretty close to done, but other than that I'm in the dark, plus the abovementioned issue with renaming everyone. So, of course, the obvious answer was to turn to Serenes for help! If any of you have good ideas for alternate names for any of the characters I mention below, or characters from games you'd like to see interact with people from other games, shout 'em out! Basically, the list is the current Roster. The brackets mark a Unit's Wanderer Name. Any Unit with "[?]" after them means I'm trying to find a good Wanderer Name for them and would appreciate help. Also, any group that doesn't have the game's name in green is probably open to additions, though it may depend. In case you hadn't noticed, some enemy Units are also open to be added, but I'm trying to really limit myself with them so don't flood me with suggestions for villains who should be in. Shadow Dragon Roster: Palla[Avia], Catria[Avis], Est[Avery], Nagi[Avata], Echoes Roster: Kamui[Stian], Deen[Scar], Hestia[Vesta], Genealogy and Thracia 776 Roster: Ayra[Blade], Ishtar[Ishizu], Binding Blade and Hasha no Tsurugi Roster: Narcian[Narcissus], Idunn[Wyrm], Sophia[Shaman], Fae[Dee], Jemmie[Soror], Zeed[Frater], Kilmar[Falcon], Lalum[Beat] Blazing Sword Roster: Lyndis[Caelor], Nils[Bard], Jaffar[Dullahan], Nino[Cai], Ursula[Crow], Farina[Anna] Sacred Stones Roster: Selena[Fidelia], Valter[Huntaire], Marisa[Scarlet], Tellius Roster: None as of now Awakening Roster: Owain[Chosen Shaft of the Demon Bow, Orvar], Tharja[Gulld], Noire[Sombre], Lucina[Andrea], Henry[Reaper], Tiki[Amicus], Fates Roster: Camilla[Thorn], Sakura[Bloom], Selena[Luna], Subaki[Gale], Kagero[Dart], Rhajat[Sillva], Ophelia[Hyperia, Divine Dawnbringer], Layla[Rhythm], Elise[Petal], Nichol[Noctis] Special Cases: Caeldori[Sola](She's from Fates but technically appears as an Awakening character because I take Subaki to Ylisse and marry him to Cordelia to give Severa the ultimate nightmare childhood because apparently I'm really sadistic when she gets involved), Larcei[Star](She also appears as an Awakening character alongside Ulster, who does not join the Wanderers, due to Ayra becoming a Wanderer and marrying Lon'qu), Ka'ri[Klare](Larcei and Ulster's younger sister, who believes herself to be the reincarnation of the Sword Demon, Karel), Reine[Anya](A half-sister of the Nohrian Royalty, based off of the SFS Entry 'Pray to the Dark', who accompanies her siblings), Helen[Krieger](A Pegasus Knight from a currently-undecided land, based off of the character of the same name from the cancelled Fire Emblem Ankoku no Miko) People I'm on the fence about for various reasons: Eirika(Sacred Stones), Anna(Pick a game, any game) Now let's hope this Topic doesn't just die off and get ignored...
