#why does feh have like 10 special unit types

[real-fire-emblem-takes]

Holy fucking shit this design is awesome, I loudly exclaimed when I first saw the trailer for the new FEH banner bc she looks so so so cool! Very much a Book V inspired outfit I'd say which makes sense given Reginn and Dagr being the first two of the new hero type although I do wonder why they skipped straight to Book V :o Not complaining, just an interesting choice given that I believe III is possibly the most popular? Anyways! Sorry for going off topic I just really wanted to call attention to Marianne bc she looks awesome ^_^

FEH - Finished my 10th project

After having finally acquired enough [Hero Feathers], I decided to finish merging up one of my long-awaited to-be +10s, that's Eir in her New Year alt:

In the end, I've opted for an attack boon, she does get 59 speed plus help from [Spd/Def Rein 3] and she can get two more points from boosts once I take them to +15, but she kind of needs to deal more damage.

I'll now talk about her and what makes of her my favorite OC in the game, as well as next [Heroic Grails] projects plans right below.

So... Why I like Eir?

I consider her my favorite OC and while it's true she's not my all time favorite, best girl, etc. She still sort of feels special.

I remember fondly the time I was watching the [Feh Channel] announcing the [Book III] thematic and setting back in late 2018 or so, I was happy with the new content but when I saw Eir, I fell in love with her design, but around that time, I didn't think I'd grow so interested on her as I'm now, but luckily, that's been changing for the better as the story developed and later on, she got her only alt so far, which I have shown above.

Her gameplay elements didn't have much of special but she still had respectable utility in the original form and our first Mythic Hero ever, but that's what not conquered me, far from it actually.

Over the time, I was charmed by her quiet and solemn personality, she often looks sad... but so is her story, which has its bits of drama but in the end, she stands up to protect her newfound friends in the Order of Heroes, she's shown to have a strong will in the cinematic of [Book III] after finishing it.

And her design sorta reminds me of Idoun too, the real best girl of all time. But anyway, Eir is such a precious girl and I'd like to fully invest in her OG form someday.

I was remembering that, after [Book III], she had little to no interactions in the plot, however, she does appear now and then in [Forging Bonds] dialogues, I specially remember the one with Lena quite fondly, in which she visits a local village to aid the needed, there's an unknown woman who's about to give birth to a child but is sick and either her or the child have to die, but Eir comes up with an idea and brings Midori quickly (they know each other ever since Midori's debut in the game) since Eir knows that she can help with her medicine, she needs the most pure water possible for it and Eir offers to retrieve the needed sample from a spring she passed by while bringing Midori to the place with the sick woman. And they managed to save both in the end, without having to sacrifice either, she then, converses with Lena about the value of life and agrees that life must be cultivated.

She used to believe that, if one experiences incurable pain then death would be a boon, this is because she had a lot more lives but her mother (Hel) fed upon Eir's life force by killing her over and over until she's left with one life. Of course, that made Eir think like that, but in the end, she survives and joins the Order of Heroes under Hel's orders since she had a plan in mind, but Eir warmed to the Heroes and was unable to betray them.

But, in the end, she's quite the well developed character, not someone super detailed but as the story progressed, it was even clearer to me who would be my favorite OC, and that's her.

Build on OG

It's nothing so extraordinary, but here is what I could assemble some time ago, I just gave her [Windsweep 3] from my recently obtained Alm since I know from my alt account that this kind of build does wonders for her as a supportive unit.

Now, it's not final and I'm missing some skills but so far it makes of her a healer of sorts and an area debuffer, it's slightly similar to the build I'm using on her alt, but that one is more offensive oriented.

"Do you have more [Heroic Grails] projects?"

I follow a specific pattern with them unlike New/Special Heroes from the summoning pools (of which there are mine and worked on in disorder, yet trying to cover what I need in my army).

First, I work on a red unit and fully merge it, then do the same with a blue, then a green one and a colorless unit, before repeating the cicle. I try to vary with weapon types but that'll likely not be always possible.

It's unlikely that a new unit will break this pattern, it has to be someone I'm so biased with, otherwise they can be put in wait mode until later.

So, since I just finished a red unit, that means I'll now work on a blue, that blue unit is...

Rinea!

Tell you the truth, I don't remember anymore why I started to work on her, but I'm quite fond of her sweet and calm demeanor.

She's the child of a minor noble house with no so much renown, and the fiance of a knight in service of the "enemy kingdom" in the events of FE15, known as Berkut. They both do love each other, but there's not much of development given to them, specially Rinea who ends up being just a plot device. She's also a passionate dancer, if the chance to dance arises, she happily steps up to take it, this makes up for a few interesting interactions or revelations, like when she had an "audience" out of forest animals to watch her dance.

I was working on her ever since she was announced, but when Brunnya was added, it took me a little self-convincing that the latter would be the blue unit I want to +10, and I did, but this time I'll leave any talk and showcase about her for another post.

Ten finished projects

I strayed from the main topic didn't I?

That's why I try not to talk about another character while I'm covering another topic.

Here's my list of fully merged projects, tried to put them in order of +10ed from memory, but can't guarantee this is exact:

I have a lot of 5★ projects and 3★/4★ ones from the regular pool, plus sometimes I start a new one, which explains why I have so little ever since I started with a serious account after rerolling for good, on Mar/2019 when Idoun and Spring Palla were debutting.

Sophia should soon make it soon since she's +8 but I'd also like to give something to Tailtiu, whose's Resplendent upgrade comes right tomorrow, can't wait. 💜

/ / because i found the site that you can build your character in feh style so i gave it a try for sohrab

i tried to base it on lvl 40 robin/reflet. 

his hp not that high nor that low because someone who poison himself on daily basis kind of...survive a little bit more than normal people.

attack could be a bit lower but idk he still has strength my dudes

speed ...he is hella fast because his motto is to never fight if he can escape. useless battles are useless

defense...not that great because he does not bother to train so yeah.

resistance again high because he is an alchemist who dabbles in shit man. 

weapon is Materialization because he mainly uses swords but can create other weapons if he wills it. 

the assist skill is synthesis; he creates a salve, potion whatever to cure who is next to him. not that high ....like 10~15 points.

his special is summoning blades where he summons all weapons he can for a final strike. i say weapons but mainly dozens of poisoned daggers in your face.

Now to the actual background and stuff.

             A wandering alchemist who strives for knowledge.

Basic:

Name: Sohrab

Age: 19

Class: Alchemist

Weapon: Materialized sword

Poison

Effective against low resistance units

World: Awakening

Type: Infantry unit

A half Ylissean, half Plegian young man. Sohrab embarked on his own journey to travel the world and learn what he could find about Alchemy--the ancient dark magic.

Sohrab is Avatar (Robin/Reflet)’s disciple. However, his own world is parallel to the ‘canon’ world of awakening; making Avatar of Heroes world a different Avatar of his own world. 

(For Sohrab, Avatar of his world should be over 20 years old.)

Being summoned by Summoner, Sohrab protested at first, saying he is not meant to join fights and wars but later on reluctantly accept to help as much as he can because there is no other way to return back to his world. Plus, Askr proved to be an interesting place to study, so why not.
