4: What Happened To Dorcas




I spot one flying unit and one axe unit, just like in vanilla FE7, but something about this bothers me...



"Screenshots that make no sense but would totally make sense" count: 2.



Hector and a wyvern rider are bullying a pirate: screenshots that are never going to make any sense whatsoever count... uh, it's a randomizer, I'm not keeping score.



It is, at least, still a "little lady"!

"Unless they have red hair. ... Jaffar, you may want to step back a little..."



Priscilla! Is a pirate! An axe locked unit with three con!



The hand axe didn't weigh Hector down. It weighs Priscilla down. Kind of a lot. In fact, it weighs her down to the point where her effective speed is negative. After three speed levels, she'll have an effective speed of 1.

Although the infinite use hand axe is a good weapon and 9 def is good, I'm not sure she's viable as a long-term unit.



Migal is more interesting. Is it too late to exchange Priscilla for him...? At least he has con!



And this, but A, it has 2 might, and B, we have no cavalry anyway.



And there's a bunch of other people here, too. That's a Lyn lord and a merc under the defeat enemy box, but they're not terribly interesting compared to...



...this guy. The "emblem" weapons aren't normally available in vanilla, but they are part of the randomizer and this one's kind of awful - obnoxious on enemies, but too weak to be really useful if we get some for playable units.



The pirate above him has a devil axe. Have fun with that, buddy...



The Hector lord has an iron axe. It's good to know my Hector will have a decent weapon to swing around once we can buy these.

The other enemies aren't worth showing off; nothing new or interesting either in terms of stats or equipment.



I weakened the closest nomad with Jaffar so we could get Priscilla some action. The lady isn't so little after all... And her damage isn't bad, it's just. Speed.



Tee hee!



Nega-Rebecca dies. Meanwhile, Ninian goes and visits the village for



DORCAS

Geez and this tome is really good, too - that +5 speed is going to have him doubling everything, he has the aid to rescue people, he has 8 mov... Guys, Dorcas is good! He is good!



Let's try him out.



Suck it nega-Hector!



And suck it nomad! This cloak is hella yella.



As long as it doesn't do damage, getting doubled is fine.



Jaffar got the Devil Axe guy and



decided that since his first level was good, this one might as well be garbage. This is not ok. I am not ok with this. I am in fact the opposite of ok with this, Jaffar.



One of these guys will always go for the house on top - it doesn't matter if they're still a brigand, any enemy can destroy villages if they're programmed for it - and normally you'd send Florina to visit it before he gets there. We can't do that because no one can cross peaks. But with the ludicrous movement ranges in this party, if we can get someone past this Lyn, we can get in the myrm's attack range!



Huh, she moved on her own. I won't complain!



The rest of the party deals with her while Jaffar saves the house.



Ehhh it's okay I guess. At least compared to Jaffar's attempt earlier...



There we go!

I swear the rewards are random! But this was 2k on my first run as well, so I'm guessing it's only actual items. As such, I wouldn't have been too upset if the house had been destroyed, but it's certainly still better not to have it happen.



Because now, Ninian has a regular sword! That's actually pretty nice - +3 might from vanilla, though it's one point heavier than it used to be, and still weighs her down.



Speaking of swords, the Mani Katti is a super cool and good weapon, especially since we saw it also grants +5 speed(!). I hope I get a decent Lyn lord at some point!



Well then, only the boss left. Fortunately, even though he's a flier, he just sits there.



"You're clearly outmatched. You can't even reach me from there! Do you really want to just sit there while I throw an infinite number of hand axes at you until you die? Because I will."



I fed him to Dorcas in the end, though.

Dorcas is good, guys!!



Maybe in another life, Prissy...



Your hair isn't red so she's not interested.



Jaffar knows what he's getting into, but he's too polite to complain.



It may be just as well. What could we call ourselves that begins with Ninian? Nerds?

Anyway, with that the chapter is over. Next up on Ninian's Bizarre Randomizer:



It begins.
