I Got The Top 4.47% On This English Vocabulary Test

Thinking about the world for this Xenoblade idea. Initially I was thinking of an island world (either in a normal ocean or sky islands) but that could get too similar to Alrest. Then it hit me, cave world. People live underground in these giant cave systems. You can have funky glowing crystals and wildlife, lakes, lava caves, icy caves, weird magnetism stuff like Pokemon's Chargestone Cave, super dark areas, ruins, mines, there's plenty of variety for these caves. There's also the whole "why the fuck is everyone underground what's going on on the surface". Were they forced to go underground, and if so was it because of some natural disaster or the actions of other people? Is it dangerous on the surface? Do the cave dwellers even know the world above even exists? Lot that can be done here.

Haven't done much on the characters yet since I'd like to get the whole situation with the cave world and the surface first. Will probably have a starting trio like Shulk/Reyn/Fiora and Noah/Lanz/Eunie, trio of childhood friends. Mentor figure is also likely, might have a kid join the group, and of course there's got to be a Nopon in the group but I'm not sure what they'd do. 5-7 is the range for permanent party members in Xenoblade games so I don't want to get too carried away.

Aside from humans and Nopon (they are everywhere), there's probably other new races but I don't have any ideas yet. Another thing is that while the numbered games lean towards British accents with some American and Australian accents thrown in and X has mostly American accents, I'd like to think that the cast of this game would have their own accent(s) to help signify that this is it's own universe. Not sure what accent they'd have, I am unfortunately a dumb American.

when you think of Legendary Pokemon, which mon do you think of as the definitive, quintessential example of what a Legendary Pokemon is? Not necessarily even your favourite, but the one that feels most emblematic of Legendary Pokemon?

Explanation under the cut

So I chose these franchises because I've noticed that a lot of FE blogs are at least a fan of one of these other franchises, so wanted to have a sample size of which franchise is the most popular with FE fans.

Also I am not including Pokemon cause it's the most popular franchise on earth.

Bravely Default Community

The upcoming remaster of the first game is making me all nostalgic and had me wondering if there was a community for the series here. I couldn't find one, so I made one!

Another Lao supporter here, he's around for a good chunk of the games. Everyone else is only around for a chapter or two at best, I'm pretty sure Alvis is only present for one fight. Lao is also just a really good character, I'd say more I don't want to spoil things since most people haven't played X. A lot of people have played 1 though, so spoilers under the cut for that game.

Get Fiora OUTTA HERE SHE COMES BACK AND STAYS FOR THE REST OF THE GAME. I know in gameplay Homs Fiora is considered a separate character from Mecha Fiora, but it doesn't feel right saying she's a temporary party member when she isn't actually gone for the whole game.
