Lances are as easily roleplayed as anything else. Just use some imagination and think outside the box.

I agree on the Druid idea of Aya's, but at the same time I agree with Valter/Avion about sticking to the FE tradition.

Also I agree on the Devotee thing. It is a wee bit confusing. And about the Acolytes, you're right, Acolytes in the real world have always been people who assist the priests by cleansing temples/altars, lighting and replacing candles, carrying incense or holy water and holding a book open when necessary. Often times they are priests in training.

Hmm, this is just my insignificant opinion so feel free to ignore it. I'm just writing out of boredom.

I'd question the promotion of Druid->Necromancer. I know where this idea comes from (Duh FE) but I've always associated Druid to be more of a nature character,
As Dru(oak tree)id would imply. This meddles with the strong FE concept, but maybe replace Druid with Necromancer, and then Final tier Necromancer with Warlock?

Druid
A Celtic priest of two thousand years ago; a person who is a member of the modern re-creation of Druidism
Ancient: From the root “dru-,” meaning “oak tree, firm, strong;” the entire intelligentsia of the Celtic peoples, including doctors
In role-playing games, a druid is a character class that is generally portrayed as using nature-based magical abilities who strive to protect nature from civilized intrusion.

Warlock
An old-English term for oath breaker. Conservative Christians and the media often refer to male Witches/Wiccans as Warlocks
A male sorcerer who practices black magic, that is to say, who manipulates magical energies granted to him by malevolent entities such as demons.
Ok, I'll take this part by part. First, FE tradition doesn't have to be necessarily kept intact if this is just an FE-based roleplaying. I understand that some paths are confusing and maybe contrary to the beliefs of people with those titles on the real world. But just as in real life, you have the option to chose what you want to be, and even f you decided for something, you could change your mind later and do something else. The 3rd tiers are not final or definite, they can and will change in time. And just as you could pick between being good or bad, you have the option of making the character turn down his/her belief or view in order to gain something else. I know it was contradicting for FE makers to make the druid the promoted dark magic user, but in Ekarode, a druid can come from a nature magic user (Mage) or a mystic/witch doctor (Shaman). The druid class will remain a 2nd tier class (it is already a part of the game), but what could change is its 3rd tier.

In regards to the Devotee's would it be possible to change their names? I mean, it a bit confusing. (Where's the male and female signs on a keyboard? :P )
Maybe changing Devotee(F) to Sister? Or Devotee(M) to Acolyte? (And before I'm told, an Acolyte has nothing to do with darkness, undead etc, damn WoW) Maybe even simply Healer?


I know it's a little confusing (I don't think you understand why I wanted the confusion), but that's ok. I think devotee's ok, since it's someone devoted to a cause or belief (not necessarily religious). Also, the ♂ (type 11 while pressing the ALT key and let go) and ♀ (type 12 while pressing the ALT key and let go) symbols are not necessary to be used here, (M) and (F) are ok. Also, acolyte and sister are some of the possible translations for monk and cleric.

Axe Users, I'm rather confused at why a Captain/Pirate adept at water suddenly changes to a mountain bandit? I thought of Corsair and Executioner, Bah maybe even Destoryer, but none of the really appealed to me. I'd think there's a need for another final tier axe class anyway.


A pirate has the option to leave behind his/her sea life and he/she can get berserk (overcomed with fury) for bad things/experiences in his/her life. Yes, I will consider another 3rd tier later.

Other names that come to mind with no clear position are;
Hawk Knight, Gladiator, Marshall, Blade Master, Legion [I considered legionnaire], Centurion, Grenadier, Phalanx, Lancer, Trooper, Crusader, Exorcist, Saviour, Wizard, Warlord, Brawler, Prophet, Prowler, Raider, Vanquisher, Templar, Mystic, Apprentice, Cardinal, Reaver.


The names I marked in bold are the ones I have considered for classes before.
The names in italics are used by other RP forums or don't sound very original (they might still appear).
Marshall might have been Dan's (and every other Army Marshall's) class, but then Dan would have to start with it, since he's already a Marshall since the beginning and will remain Marshall until the end (*may change).
The rest (except the strike-throughed ones) will be considered.

Click the icon to stop it moving or at the bottom of the index page there is a small nearly invisable bit of text saying "mark all forum posts as read" or something along those lines. If you can not see it use ctrl and f to bring up the find box and type "read" into the search box that appears then use the next button in the box to find all instanes of the work and you will see the button.

I made the new post icon (the moving papers) on the front page so everyone could notice if there's a new post or not (to catch your attention). If you already read it and went to see the subforum or clicked the icon, it would stop.
