ROUND 2 FIGHT 3: The French Narrator VS. Jonah Magnus

[sadboi-in-a-sweater]

hi i uhhhhh. Did a thing

Lore!

Info on The French Narrator (Butcher Vanity AU): Physical Description: The French Narrator from Bikini Bottom is a chillingly peculiar figure to behold. With a body seemingly tailored to blend into the depths of the ocean, he stands at an average human height, yet his presence looms large due to the bulky diving gear that envelops him. His copper diving helmet is a stark contrast to his otherwise sleek black wetsuit, which fits snugly and is adorned with a small French flag on one sleeve. The helmet, with its circular, glass window, allows for only the faintest glimpse of his crimson eyes, which pierce through the darkness like twin laser beams. Above this metal cranium, a red bowtie adds an eerie touch of elegance, while a matching beret sits atop, giving him an air of sophistication that starkly contrasts with his heinous deeds. His diving boots are robust and provide him the ability to navigate both land and sea with ease. His build is lanky yet surprisingly strong, which aids in his ability to overpower his unsuspecting victims. Despite the horrors he conceals, his exterior exudes a sense of charm and grace that belies the monster beneath. Personality: Beneath the calm and suave demeanor of the French Narrator lies a cunning and calculating mind. His soothing, yet thickly-accented French voice lulls those around him into a false sense of security, a trait he uses to his advantage as he weaves through the town unnoticed. He is highly intelligent, often speaking in riddles and metaphors that leave the inhabitants of Bikini Bottom intrigued and slightly confused. His charisma is undeniable, making it easy for him to charm his way into the hearts and homes of his unsuspecting prey. However, when it comes to his macabre hobby, he is cold and detached, seeing his victims as nothing more than ingredients for his next gourmet meal. The French Narrator is meticulous and precise in his actions, ensuring that no evidence of his grisly activities remains behind. His ability to think on his feet and adapt to situations makes him a formidable and elusive predator. Background: The origins of the French Narrator's twisted culinary habits are shrouded in mystery. It is rumored that he was once a renowned chef in the highest echelons of French society, who stumbled upon a dark recipe book lost in the annals of time. This book contained the secrets to dishes that could only be made with the flesh of the ocean's most bizarre and intelligent creatures. Driven by an insatiable hunger for gastronomic perfection, he turned his talents from preparing exquisite dishes for the elite to hunting the very beings he used to serve. His descent into madness began when he was exiled from France for his unorthodox culinary practices. He found refuge in the colorful and oblivious world of Bikini Bottom, where he could pursue his dark passions without the prying eyes of his former peers. His introduction to this macabre lifestyle has transformed him into a creature of the deep, lurking in the shadows and waiting for the perfect moment to strike. His background in high society has honed his ability to blend in and manipulate, allowing him to insinuate himself into the lives of the town's inhabitants without suspicion. Despite his gourmet tastes, he has a particular fondness for the simple folk of Bikini Bottom, seeing them as both a challenge to his culinary skills and a means to an end for his twisted appetite.

Okay, I need to know. Anyone else who has listened to the Secret Shanghai audiobooks (because that's how I'm reading them), does it bother you when the narrator doesn't do the accents that characters are supposed to have?

ROUND 1 FIGHT 5: Doc Scratch VS. The French Narrator

[randomnameless]

As sort of expected after browsing the Fodlan games,

At times, the French localised script is different from the eng one, but I've heard this game's eng localisation was discussed a bit so...

I guess as long as there's nothing on the level of Rhage I won't be bothered, granted I'm not over analysing characters and writing serious posts about them yet lol

So far, Ilenia was a badass and would have put Fado to shame, instead of waiting for her execution on her throne, she takes some people with her and launches an attack at the enemy commander to act as a diversion while her son escapes. And then we have a redux of the scene where Finn escapes Leonster castle smuggling his young prince away.

I'm half wondering if not rescuing Scarlett will spare me from jiggle physics because the only other female character I have now definitively doesn't have them, but given how the protag wants to save her...

Alain, on the true and tried fe tradition, beats red units to later recruit them, I can't wait to recruit more people lol.

Non plot wise... The artwork/background/even clothes and armors for the characters are pretty and while I know I'm old, I still don't understand why some devs insist on giving us weird af 3D models when you can still do beautiful and awesome models/graphisms in 2D.

The battalion sort of system makes a frightening amount of sense, and while I know FE is FE so gameplay wise it would have been really complicated to put in place, but I legit can't imagine for hcs or even fics ideas Fodlan now without a similar system lol
