Rune factory 6 speculation

With RF6 & RFPD being announced I thought I would do some speculation and analysis for the two games.

This one will be just for RF6 with another for PD coming out later, as there is more material to dissect and I have a lot more speculation and theories for that game

Most of this one is rambling and speculation so not much of this will come true... Probably.

The floating city.

This floating city I'm talking about and I think it will be our home in some way shape or form. As in the logos from the previous games, the protagonist house has been symbolised in it.

In rf3, the 3 in the logo is decorated with flowers. This can either be in relation to the town rf3 is based around, Sharance, a flower dominated town. Or the fact that by the end of the game, the Sharance tree is in bloom with flowers.

In rf4, it has a green dragon in the logo, and ventuswill, a green elder dragon, can be found outside of Lest/Frey's room.

In rf5 the SEED logo can be seen on the logo, And Ares/Alice bedroom is above the seed HQ.

So with this in mind, I want to weigher that the sky city / island is where the rf6 protag will be staying. Or that it's the main local of the game. Which is probably more likely.

(side note, this has nothing to do with all of this speculation, but personally the floating city is reminding me of the final fantasy logos, especially ff13's.)

The architecture

On the main building with the halo on it, it has these odd patterns on it.

For me, these remind me of fairy wings. Which is a bit odd for rf standards. As fairies aren't a common race and but are a type of enemy (the common fairy monsters and Ambrosia to name a few) . Perhaps this is supposed to maybe be more for the eleven race?

Though this new rf game will be based in a new continent called Ardonia, so maybe fairies are seen as a race such as dwarfs there? What new races will be introduced in this new continent?

In the video, it's stated that this is the architecture for Ardonia. Which seems to say that Ardonia has biomimicry in most of its architecture. But also it's oddly... Modern, reminding myself of ff again.

What's your thoughts on this?

Also what IS that halo?

Halo / Ring

When I see it I personally think "rune energy", perhaps this game will be more nature themed than the two previous games which had some more "high tech" elements of them. With the wing shaped elements of the building and the "rune energy" (or magic) halo, this is the turn that I think this game will be giving.

Maybe more details will go into what EXACTLY earthmaes are? Perhaps earthmaes are more common in Ardonia?

Though perhaps, it may go in the other direction and Ardonia is more high tech than Norad. Tanks, floating cities, airblimps are well known to the rune factory series so perhaps it's going in a much more modern direction. (More Innocent Life than Rune Factory ig)

Though who knows, again let me know your thoughts and theories! Either as a ask, reblog, comment, DM etc.

6

The six looks like water rippling obviously so maybe it's set in a port town? Or we are living right in the middle of the ocean maybe? It's giving me some RFO vibes personally.

The pattern on the right hand side of the 6 reminds me personally of scales, which reminds me of one thing. Aquaticus, the elder dragon of water and transformation. Though this is a new region we are based in so it's unknown how the elder dragons are perceived there. If Aquaticus is important to this game, perhaps the protag will be able to transform, probably not as majorly as Micah but more of a quick and small anime magic girl esc. transformation.

I can't figure out the pattern on the right hand side of the 6 though it reminds me personally of a horn.

And that's all I have for now, let me know your thoughts! I'll do this again for project dragon soon.

(most of my speculations are probably wrong though lol, as we currently only have a logo to go off of. It's like putting the subtitle of a dragon quest game or the logo for a final fantasy gave and just saying good luck guessing.)

February 3rd : “You did this for me?”

I imagine Micah would have to be really nice to his newlywed wife for a solid year to make up for, you know, considering the fact she was captured by a giant water dragon for like 3 in-game months

Hopefully you’ll be able to keep up with your activity next go-round!

If you are a new arrival to the group (as in, you’ve joined during this activity period), then you will automatically pass. Additionally, if you are a new arrival and have made FIVE RP POSTS, then you will get full benefits of the check. If not, your character’s name will have a star next to it, and they will only get 1,000G for passing. This only applies to new arrivals that have been here for a majority of the activity period. If your character has joined in the week of the activity check, they will also be allowed full benefits. This is also applicable for people with hiatuses-- if you get off of hiatus and/or report back in within the week of the activity check, you will also be allowed a pass.

Here are the most recent community updates and announcements!

Rune Factory never did explain the MC's old lives. In RF original, it makes a bit sense as Raguna was mentioned as an earthmate they grabbed randomly to toss into Kardia by the Sechs (?).

But after the original, it makes no sense. Kyle, in RF2, was tasked to seal Fiersome- an existence that some people KNOW sealed in Alvarna. Kyle practically lived in Alvarna without doing anything for almost a decade (assuming he's only getting married in year 2 or 3) before going "Ooooh yeah!" And left his family behind to sacrifice his life for the sake of sealing Fiersome back. Like, literally no one else came looking or checking on him in Alvarna or simply just dropping by to see if the seal is really fixed if they don't care about Kyle that much. Would an earthmate need to rush over and sacrifice his life with deadline in front of his eyes if someone just drop by and ask him about the seal? The council of Earthmate is messed up.

In RF3, it's established that Micah is a guardian of faraway town that left his town in pursuit of the five menace boss monsters that wreck havoc in his town. Midways, he got kidnapped by a manipulative Native Dragon and once again play the game of fate that he didn't intend to do (Much like Raguna, he had his memory wiped). No one ever came up to search for the lost guardian. The ending is also very disturbingly entrapping thanks to Aquaticus. Almost like Aquaticus is UNWILLING to let Micah go and gave him an impossible set of options. "I can give you back your memory and send you home. Or you can stay here." More or less, it's worded like that. Notice something disturbing? Congrats! Aquaticus made it seem like he's giving Micah a choice, when in reality he gave nothing as such.

In RF4, as people already know. Despite having the task to give Rune Sphere to Ventuswill (a task. Reminder of RF2 with Kyle and his "task"). Ventuswill didn't know them nor the sender of that Rune Sphere it seems, or else, she would just send someone to fetch them and help Frey/Lest to get their memory back. No one came to check if the mission's successful. Not even in post arc 2 where everyone knows THAT happened. Almost like the failure or success doesn't really matter to whoever sent Lest/Frey on this mission. I gotta say, if earthmates move in council, the council is either corrupted af or indifferent af.

Amongst the 4 main series (not counting RF5 which I have yet to play), the only one with seemingly clean past of a traveler is Raguna (yeah, there's that theory that he's a Prince, but a LOST prince. He seemed like a traveler. Which means, no one would miss him if he's gone). Kyle was given a 'task' which means he has people waiting for him to report back or at least people who knew he went on a quest. Micah has visions of his childhood, a guardian to his hometown, that means he has friends (and possibly relatives) waiting for him at home. Lest/Frey are the same too like Kyle, someone or some people KNEW of their quests.

Like I know Frey lost her memories after the fall but wouldn't there be at least one person from her old life looking for her? Unless it's cleared up after act 3 it kind pulls me out juuuust a tiny tiny bit. Still absolutely love this game and Arthur.

Rune Factory 10th Anniversary Week – Day 4

Favourite Memory

HAPPY BIRTHDAY  RUNE FACTORY!!

I’d have to say my favourite memory was the final boss of Rune Factory 3 for the first time and saving Sophia, my first love in the game! I’d have focused more on the fight itself but its almost midnight so theres the beast in the bg :’)

Other great memories include: watching the marriages from the other games as a kid, first transforming into a wooly in 3, riding on ventuswills back, realising i could put clothes on people in oceans, first seeing the runies in frontier, LYNETTE-

Margot’s Rune Factory Headcanons #2;

I stumbled across this personal headcanon in notes I’d taken from my last playthrough (on top of all the babble I did about the library's books last week);

#2 - “Grimoire” is a word for the Earthmates who are connected to a Dragon [in this case, Terrable], and thus are able to wield their power.

Tl;dr - Raguna could be a Grimoire, and Ethelberd tried to become a Grimoire.

I’ve messed with this thought for several days, so hopefully this makes sense.

Headcanon that the word “Grimoire” has lost a great deal of meaning as time has gone on. Terrable has been sleeping, resting for so very long- in my headcanon, he’s been resting since the day Fiersome was sealed away. Terrable, for the longest time, had the best chance to share his power with Earthmates. Meanwhile, Aquaticus preferred to guide Earthmates instead of lending them power, and Ventuswill has given so much of her own energy to the land that there’s not any power she can spare. Truthfully, however, there hasn’t been anyone to truly wield Terrable’s true power, or any Native Dragon’s power, in generations.

There are some modern day Earthmates who are strong enough to feel Terrable’s presence within the earth. (Headcanon: Doctor Edward is one, as is Ivan, as is Raguna.) Some of those Earthmates have even had strange dreams of communication with Terrable - reminiscent of the dreams in RF:Frontier - but that’s it. (Ivan is one of those few- and the most trusted to the King, mayhaps.)

Nowadays, “Grimoire”’s correct meaning is mainly only used correctly in Norad’s Capitol and Sylphia, among royal researchers, mages, and knights. Even then, the term is used incredibly loosely, and quietly. (Ventuswill isn’t exactly about to spill secrets when she is weak, and the ‘right person’ isn’t around.) Among the rest of the country, the ‘Grimoire is a dragon’ or ‘Grimoire is a mage’ legends have become increasingly popular, ideas that stemmed from two halves of the truth. (The tale has become one of Kardia’s tourism drives; visitors enjoy the small town’s festivals and a chance to get a ye olde photograph at the base of the mountain.)

Meanwhile, the Sechs were on the right track, in having the idea that using an Earthmate would be a good way to get to Terrable… That an Earthmate and the idea of Grimoire were connected…

No one is sure of a Grimoire’s true form because no one is quite sure who a Grimoire will be, not anymore. It’s not often there’s an Earthmate strong enough, a situation dire enough, or an Earthmate with the correct will and drive to handle that power. Those who fit that criteria become the dragon’s messenger, just like those Earthmates of old who worked alongside Terrable to seal away Fiersome, or those who Ventuswill befriended long ago. (And it’s probably a good thing Fiersome doesn’t seem to be able to lend anyone power.) A true Grimoire would be granted powerful magic and stamina, a gift fromthe Dragon themselves, some of their essence in their veins- a force beyond any monster or mage in the mortal plane.

And that’s why Etherlberd was so desperate to get his spell right- first, against Terrable, second, against Ventuswill. He needed to figure out how to wield that power, to become a Grimoire, or something close to it, before someone wielded it against him.

So, to repeat, tl;dr - Raguna essentially = Grimoire, and Ethelberd tried to force himself to become a Grimoire.

And, personally, I’d like to see something where a RF hero actually gets to use that power, instead of the Dragon showing off all on his own. Not that Terrable driving off the Sechs Army wasn’t satisfying, but like. Let the Earthmates have their Thor: Ragnarok moment!

Please note; I haven’t beaten Tides of Destiny yet, so if that happened, I wouldn’t know. Also no spoilers pls I’ve avoided them thus far and would like to continue <3

And again, these are all personal headcanons made for fun, not meant to be hard facts or game lore <3

Activity Check

Two weeks have gone by, and the current activity period has ended! This post will be listing all of the characters who have and haven’t met their post requirements, as well as provide them with their pay and expenses for the last two weeks, so be sure to read this to collect/pay your bank, and to make sure whether or not your character is in danger of being dropped!

To pass, your character must have at least FIVE RP POSTS. Music, Money Posts, and Artwork don’t count for activity unless they have an RP component to them. If your character hasn’t met the post requirement, then they will fail. If they fail the subsequent check, then that character will be dropped from the Masterlist. Failed characters do not get the money bonuses from the Activity Check. Instead, they will only be awarded 500G and whatever expenses that applies to them (rent, commuter’s pass). Hopefully you’ll be able to keep up with your activity next go-round!

If you are a new arrival to the group (as in, you’ve joined during this activity period), then you will automatically pass. Additionally, if you are a new arrival and have made FIVE RP POSTS, then you will get full benefits of the check. If not, your character’s name will have a star next to it, and they will only get 1,000G for passing. This only applies to new arrivals that have been here for a majority of the activity period. If your character has joined in the week of the activity check, they will also be allowed full benefits. This also applies for people with hiatuses-- if you get off of hiatus and report back in within the week of the activity check, you will also be allowed a pass.

Here are the most recent community updates and announcements!

Please be sure to read the results below, and -- if you’ve passed -- apply these money changes to your bank account (via a money update post tagged as #pi:money and #pi:activity) according to which ones apply to your specific character.

The next Activity Check will be on Saturday, May 13th!

Activity Check

Two weeks have gone by, and the current activity period has ended! This post will be listing all of the characters who have and haven’t met their post requirements, as well as provide them with their pay and expenses for the last two weeks, so be sure to read this to collect/pay your bank, and to make sure whether or not your character is in danger of being dropped!

To pass, your character must have at least FIVE RP POSTS. Music, Money Posts, and Artwork don’t count for activity unless they have an RP component to them. If your character hasn’t met the post requirement, then they will fail. If they fail the subsequent check, then that character will be dropped from the Masterlist. Failed characters do not get the money bonuses from the Activity Check. Instead, they will only be awarded 500G and whatever expenses that applies to them (rent, commuter’s pass). Hopefully you’ll be able to keep up with your activity next go-round!

If you are a new arrival to the group (as in, you’ve joined during this activity period), then you will automatically pass. Additionally, if you are a new arrival and have made FIVE RP POSTS, then you will get full benefits of the check. If not, your character’s name will have a star next to it, and they will only get 1,000G for passing. This only applies to new arrivals that have been here for a majority of the activity period. If your character has joined in the week of the activity check, they will also be allowed full benefits. This also applies for people with hiatuses-- if you get off of hiatus and report back in within the week of the activity check, you will also be allowed a pass.

Activity Check

Two weeks have gone by, and the current activity period has ended! This post will be listing all of the characters who have and haven’t met their post requirements, as well as provide them with their pay and expenses for the last two weeks, so be sure to read this to collect/pay your bank, and to make sure whether or not your character is in danger of being dropped!

To pass, your character must have at least FIVE RP POSTS. Music, Money Posts, and Artwork don’t count for activity unless they have an RP component to them. If your character hasn’t met the post requirement, then they will fail. If they fail the subsequent check, then that character will be dropped from the Masterlist. Failed characters do not get the money bonuses from the Activity Check. Instead, they will only be awarded 500G and whatever expenses that applies to them (rent, commuter’s pass). Hopefully you’ll be able to keep up with your activity next go-round!

If you are a new arrival to the group (as in, you’ve joined during this activity period), then you will automatically pass. Additionally, if you are a new arrival and have made FIVE RP POSTS, then you will get full benefits of the check. If not, your character’s name will have a star next to it, and they will only get 1,000G for passing. This only applies to new arrivals that have been here for a majority of the activity period. If your character has joined in the week of the activity check, they will also be allowed full benefits. This also applies for people with hiatuses-- if you get off of hiatus and report back in within the week of the activity check, you will also be allowed a pass.

Here are the most recent community updates and announcements!

Please be sure to read the results below, and -- if you’ve passed -- apply these money changes to your bank account (via a money update post tagged as #pi:money and #pi:activity) according to which ones apply to your specific character.

The next Activity Check will be on Saturday, March 18th!
