“Leeched” is a perfectly cromulent word, spellchecker.

(Finally) sitting down and working out Kaytlinne’s timeline and some key stuff, and wondering…

Can animals be Lightforged, or imbued with the Light? Would people, OOC or IC, find that weird/OP?
Long story short, she inhereted her mentors warhorse and, when it came to Legion OOC, I ‘upgrade’ to the shinier Paladin steed that came with the Order Hall, and I thought I could work that into the background heh.

Its so frustrating how few HD armoured horses there are. Kodos got a pretty comprehensive, free update. Wish they’d update the racial mounts to not look Extra Crunchy…

Based on the Draeneis Elekk they can be. I beleive the ones associated with the LF Argus rep state so but id need to double check.

Yeah, looking into them there’s no real mention of the how and requirements, only that it’s something they can do.

So I feel a bit better about Karas (the horse) being on Argus when Kaytlinne was there during Legion, and lightforging being used to save him.
Now he’s just a little bit more glowy :laughing: (He doesn’t fly IC though lol)

Ah yes, the mounts that gave us the lore “Draenei hadn’t thought about using Elekks as war steeds until Turalyon suggested it”.

turalyon the bloody draeneiboo quoting sun tzu to the millenia old war veterans: “when have big elephant. use big elephant to war.” or something

To play devils advocate a moment, it does specifically say The Army Of The Light, not the Draenei.
Which, in canon at least, should be made up of all sorts of species from across the great dark. But, because Blizz and resource limitations and… etc etc. We get shiny Draenei, and one UndreadLord. Yay :grimacing:

The ultimate protag weapon in Fire Emblem Engage is called Willie Glanz

This apparently translates from German to “shining will” but, uh, you shoulda come up with something a bit less :eggplant:

Its the Germans. Need I say more

I don’t believe they can be fully Lightforged as that requires a trial of will that animals can’t pass, but giving them Lightforged barding and training them along those lines would work fine

Now i shouldn’t be pondering if you can force an animal to be Lightbound.

But.

Gods, so tiring how many times I’m saying; “just because you’ll be shot last doesn’t mean you won’t be shot” recently.

It would be deeply unethical and very effective

Unrelated news, there is a strong rumour at the moment that the next Persona project is 4 remastered [along the lines of 3 Reload] and all I can say is no no no no god please no no I do not trust you to not mess up Naoto no no no no no no no

oh.

oh no.

Also Atlus where’s my Digital Devil Saga remaster?!

HUH?!

EDIT: Put Devil Summoner on there too since the 2nd one wasn’t released outside Japan.

EDIT2: Reminder I have a certain Pale Rider to go bully on SMT3, maybe I should actually stream.

It’s only rumour at this point and to Atlus’s credit they did remove the terrible transphobic section that was originally in 3 when they made Reload [one of those ‘ohoho, you thought she was woman but actually man!’ jokes - they made her a cis woman conspiracy theorist for the joke], but to this day people do not seem to understand or get the INTENSE transmasc vibes Naoto gives off

Lmao
just so you know
it reads as :eggplant:-shine in German

Actual translation for “shining will” (which is just super odd tbh): Glänzender/Strahlender Wille

Okay, looked it up
and it’s actually “Wille Glanz” without Elly’s extremely English typo (judging you)
which… is just “will shine”
someone got into the dictionary again and translated random nouns with 0 grammar

And that’s pronounced “will-uh”
not “willy”
silly

It’s the bad translation
