Description Cliff, Grey, Robin. Unless you go by Qulyf for some reason. And Lovin'. Hey thar, Lovin'.

These guys are from Alm's village, they all decided to follow Alm and join the liberation group. They are all villagers! That means you get to promote them into either a mercenary, soldier, archer, mage, or social knight. And for some reason, the mercenary, after promoting into a swordfighter and then a dark fighter, can loop around and become a villager again. I did not take advantage of that. I made Cliff and Grey into swordfighters and Robin into a social knight, although I only got the first two to the third tier. I was following a walkthrough, so next time I'll mix it up. Cliff would actually make a decent mage (or decent anything really).

I'm getting these three from Fire Emblem: Gaiden all over with at once. Why? They're all largely uninspiring. The majority of their sprites are cut and pasted. Only Cliff shows real personality. It's like Intelligent Systems, in preparation for the second game of their new series, looked through the cast of Ankoku for what could become a recurring archetype;, their eyes passed over Kain and Abel, the red and green knight, and instead settled on Barts, Saji, and Maji. The three copy & pasted ax guys. Did they have to bring all three of them back in the DS remake? Are they distinct persons now?

Wow I've got light coming from all different directions. This is what I'm working with by the way: [link] This was not easy. I spent the most work just constantly tweaking the colors.

I do enjoy looking at that one sprite-dude's totally attractive pink mushroom-haircut thing. Wow.

Also holy crap that dude Leo has like, the exact same hair and armor color as Wendy from FE6. It's uncanny.

Oh man, I know, I look at those somewhat, but I don't like how almost completely different they are from the sprites. I just want to be consistent, and also I don't know what's going on with Silk. But that IS why these guys are all wearing sandals.

Those really aren't much better. They look a bit like hobbits.

Nice job adapting them, though!

Did you design those costumes? They're fabulous.

As for the portraits, I dunno . . . that Force has hair before its time - he's perfectly fashionable for the present day.

SWEET JESUS THOSE SPRITES ARE UGLY. [heaves a rock] I love your drawings, though. They look like anything other than poorly drawn meatheads. My god. My GOD. I cannot unsee it.
