do we need any prior knowledge to the game in order to post?

 

[Bluemage]

Original Characters

Oh yeah. There will be original characters...but I'm hoping there won't be a lot of them...at least not until we get all of the positions filled anyway...

 

[Bluemage]

do we need any prior knowledge to the game in order to post?

No. not really. I haven't set up the actual thread for this yet though.
If you want a basic set up of character relationships I can do a quick rundown of that.

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

I was interested in Collette, and I'll do some research but if you want to help me out that'd be awesome =)

 

[VickyCummings]

wow you actually going through with this, like I said I called Sheena, so you useing the plot I suggested then or one of your own. Like I said if you want to hash out a plot don't be afraid to sent me a private message.

Evil doesn't stand a chance. Had to say that.

oh btw if anyone wants to know more about Symphonia depending on what the actual plot is, I'll be more than willing to help to explain.

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

I guess you can count me in then ^_^

 

[VickyCummings]

wow just read your first set up post, so I'm assuming we are all meeting by the mana tree for the seven year anerversy then?

 

[Bluemage]

I was interested in Collette, and I'll do some research but if you want to help me out that'd be awesome =)

Collette is Lloyd and Genis's best friend since childhood. She was raised believing that she is the daughter of an angel, and I forget at the moment if the people she lives with are actually her parents or not. She seems to develop a crush on Lloyd throughout the game, and the two of them discuss at one point going out on a quest to collect the Ex-Spheres (which are a power granting item, sort of like the Materia in Final Fantasy 7. The Ex-Spheres are made out of people. They grant strength bonuses and other different bonuses depending on enhancements that yo put into them throughout the rest of the game)
She is a bit clumsy (though you can decide not to have her be clumsy if you want, remember, this takes place 7 years after the game ends) but her clumsiness often results in good things happening to her. She was viewed as a hero by the people in her hometown because they thought that she was the one destined to save the world of Sylverant. She her sense of touch and her voice on her quest of regeneration, resulting in her speaking by spelling out words in Lloyd's palm.
She was granted angel wings, though I think at one point or another those vanished because of the key crest (the thing that allows people to control their ex spheres) that Lloyd made for her.
She, Genis, and Lloyd were all in the same class being taught by Raine at the start of the game. She also loves dogs...like it's crazy how much she loves dogs.

She uses simple magic stuff, like summoning a "pow hammer" which is just a red hammer that jumps at stuff and then vanishes after a minimal amount of damage, but also does more high-tech magic like angel feathers (shoots pink feathers at opponents, does good damage) and Judgment, and that sort of thing (and Holy song, which I'm not sure what it does really but is a team boosting skill, so whatever.)

Lloyd has an oversized blue dog monster thing named Noish, or something along those lines, though I think in one of the side quests it becomes something different.

Yggdrasill planned to use her as a vessel to resurrect Martel, his dead sister, and that was pretty much the entire idea behind the quest of regeneration.

I think that pretty much sums up everything there is to know about Collette's character.

 

[TearsoftheWorld]

cool, hopefully my posts can do her justice then.

 

[Bluemage]

wow just read your first set up post, so I'm assuming we are all meeting by the mana tree for the seven year anerversy then?

If you want to. My idea with setting it up so that everyone had things that they could be doing instead of going to the anniversary was so that if you decided that you didn't want to join in at that point, or that you wanted to do something else you could. For example, if Collette and Lloyd want to do their Ex-Sphere quest instead of going ot the Anniversary then they can do that. Eventually I think everyone will run into everyone else anyway, because we'll all end up reaching for a common goal.

 

[VickyCummings]

nah I decided to visit the tree instead, but I think our thread is going to go a bit slow in the begaining unitl we get more people signed up.

 

[Bluemage]

nah I decided to visit the tree instead, but I think our thread is going to go a bit slow in the begaining unitl we get more people signed up.

Yeah, and that's the other reason I set almost everyone up with something that they could do alone, so that if we get too bored we can move along with it and have those people join later, and we'll just run into them. So when people are all like "Well...I would join, but I have absolutely no idea what's going on." I can respond with, "That's alright. Your character has been secluded from the group doing ___, so they wouldn't know what is going on either. Already you fit the character perfectly."

 

[VickyCummings]

hey where you get some of the pics, like Llyod's, Genis's even though its upside down, Collete's, Kratos's, Raine's, Sheena's and Persea's they all look great. Zelo's and Regals just look like game shots.

 

[Bluemage]

The ones for Zelos, Regal, and Martel are all just gameshots. The rest all came from a site that I found when I put one of the searches in to google. I don't even remember which search it was, but it returned this pace with a whole gallery.

 

[VickyCummings]

heh I never looked at the Mithos, Yuan or Martel pics, now I must.

 

[poohlive]

This does look awesome. I was wondering if I could play Regal. He sounds very interesting.

 

[Bluemage]

Hurrah for someone who wants to play Regal. I forget the name of the company that he runs, but I think it has something to do with the theme park in Altimira (which is basically where the company headquarters are located)

What else would you need to know about him...the girl who he had fallen for was named Alecia I think, and she had transformed into a wicked cool looking monster as a result of an Ex-sphere without a key crest I think. In any case, he killed her in self defense. There is a memorial to her on the top of the office tower thing.
He's a good cook and on a side quest ended up meeting the wonder chef. (And speaking of that...I wonder if I should post the wonder chef as a character...hmmm...)

I'm sure Vicky will know more about Regal than I do. I never really looked at his character very closely.

 

[VickyCummings]

Regal's company name is Lezerano Company, think its a minig company, or atleast part of its operations. After killing his wife, he turned himself in. Then the Pope of Tethe'alla offered him his freedom if he were succesfull in killing Sylverant's Chosen, Collete. After being defeated twice in two seperate attempts to kill Collete, He joins the group after learning that Persea (the sister of his wife, Alicia) was traveling with the group.

Just a quick look into more of his history
