Which of the power-hungry, bloodthirsty dimwits whose initials start with a C do you prefer, Clout or Caellach?

Caellach, easily!

Both by how they're treated by the narrative (Caellach doesn't have a group of sycophant praising his nonsensical decisions) - Caellach sets to do something, and when things go sour, he assumes and fights (and dies).

Also he oozes that arrogant energy (despite not being much himself!) without the plot having to turn a blind eye to make his arrogance not look like stupidity/ignorance (fodlan is isolationist bcs Rhea promotes isolationism? And it has totally nothing to do with them adopting this stance because Nader raids them every sunday for funises? Ohh, I took 5 years to realise Cyril, Petra and Dedue existed! And if talked to Seteth or Flayn or Rhea herself even once, they would have told me it's not right, and they authorise people practicing other faiths than the Seiros one?).

In a way, I find Caellach much more likeable - for what he is supposed to be lol - than Clout or even Claude.

#anon #replies #Caellach is the cocky merc Barney wishes they could ever emulate #vote Caellach for CYL8 people #I will #I can see Claude's arc being about learning and reconsidering his OG POV #but OG POV is so faulty and easily debunked by even spending one day in GM or in the Alliance that's it imo falls apart #I still don't understand how the first step to create a more peaceful world and peaceful relationships #is to ask Fodlan to open their borders and not to ask Almyra to stop the weekly raids #how can you ask let bygones be bygones if bygones are still happening when we're talking?#character salt #character rant
