Oh and I've played the video games, so you don't have to worry about walking me through the general mechanics. I'm just not well-versed in the stat/growth distribution process for creating a character.
Well Druids can heal. But we don't have many Axes, and the Hero gets axes. Although only a D rank if you go Mercernary.

You can either make them, or ask someone to make them. The people typically willing to make others sprites are, Water_and_wind (Highest quality) Penguinator, Me, Sairyu, maybe Herp.

Do you know how to assign your stats?

Okay only three errors, and one is because I think I mentioned it somewhere else

Your final hp should not be doubled. For that you take your hp (Of 24 in your case) and then multiply the 80 growth you have by 20. Which is 16. Then you add your promotion bonus of 4, in total that is 44

Your Strength is too high. Remember that at tier 1 everything but Hp and Luck caps at 20

And the error that is partly my fault. Your axe rank starts at A in my game. And you promoted from Fighter so you start off with a sword rank of C

Alrighty, edited my post to reflect your response. Is everything in line now? Also just a few more questions: How do I decide promotion bonuses, or what are they if they're fixed? And what weapons/items should I have?

--@Sairyu Cool, thanks!

Promotion Bonuses: http://serenesforest.net/fe8/promotion.htm
Stat Caps: http://serenesforest.net/fe8/class_cap.htm

Weapons and items are purchased and distributed by the lord from a set gold sum. So, lets say that that sum is 25 000 gold and that there are 10 characters; the lord has to buy equipment and items for all 10 characters using that 25 000 gold.

Cool, cool. Could someone please make a sprite of Helius? From what I could gather, the general idea is to apply a color palette to an existing character.

Helius would basically be Zies (third post here) with black hair and a gold/purple template. Let me know if there's any other info you need. Thanks!

Do you need one more character? I can fill that slot. And I'll do Lu "cockcroach head" Bu's portrait as well.

And, are skill activation rates based on the promoted level only or the sum of the unpromoted and promoted levels?

One more question, what items and weapons are available to be bought?

OK, so I narrowed down that I could use Sairyu's Domni pic for a base, whiten the hair, blacken the clothes, and remove neck frills for a close enough pic for Bold, but every time I try adding a tophat, it seems to wreck the whole thing :/
Still no luck tracking down a map sprite. May have to go with basic sage 'til I can find one.

We can always use more character.

Anything besides traditional monster stuff.

The following post will remain unedited.

----------

Selected Lords to participate in this weekend's draft:
  • Illven {seeded}
  • GrassyGnoll
  • Ascaloth
Herpestidae is removed from the pool because he was already selected as the playing Lord for Illven's map.

I will now roll for pick order. Highest goes first and can veto for second pick. In case of tied numbers, the second rolls for the relevant players will be compared.

The draft system that I'll be using can be found on post #77

Illven: (1d100)[87], (1d100)[76]
GrassyGnoll: (1d100)[21], (1d100)[31]
Ascaloth: (1d100)[70], (1d100)[11]

Picks will commence on Friday.

You pick first, then Ascaloth, then GrassyGnoll.

You can choose to pick second though (Ascaloth gets bumped up to first pick)

So I get two picks and one ban, if I get it correct? And can I pick my own characters?

@Ascaloth
Yup, you get two [2] picks and one [1] ban and can pick any of the listed (approved) characters.

I'd say wait 'till Friday to pick though, or else we don't have enough characters to do a full draft, haha.

Edit: I'm not going to reveal my maps until Friday anyways (mainly because I haven't finished translating all of them to the computer).

Edit: Also that was a realllyyy fast first pick there Illven. I made a small edit to the draft process to:
Quote:
Originally Posted by draft round 1

L3: 2 picks - 1 ban
L1: 1 pick - 1 ban
// end of first round of drafts: maps revealed
Otherwise, L1 wasn't getting a ban.

So, Lu will be getting the ban at the end of the first draft phase.

You can pick now, it's just that if someone submits a character that you really want to pick after the fact then... I guess you can't pick/ban them. Also I won't start the second round of drafts until Friday.

All characters on the list are draft-able. Illven's running his map separately from this. Also, I don't know exactly which characters were chosen, so there's that.



Edit: By the way, Illven, how many characters got picked for that map?

Ah well then, that's no issue.

My picks are Kong (mine) since he's pretty much made to work in concert with Guan, and Ion Eccidio (Sairyu) just because.

I am going... to ban... I dunno.

Oh whatever, I'll ban Selim (Herpestidae).
