Will we be introduced to the more "main" characters soon? As in, those that have to be in the party for the sake of the plot. XD I'll need to keep them on my suspicion list, nyahahaha.

A new character:

Tyvetti is a trapper by trade, who has seen a little more of the world, and is wiser in its ways, than Dashiell. The two join up in a time of need and become good friends. Tyvetti firmly believes any kind of power has a corrupting influence, and applauds those who put the needs of others ahead of their own. But Tyvetti has a secret that, if it got out, would surely lead to his demise, and perhaps Dashiell's as well.

Oooh, a character with a secret.

Just out of curiosity, how many playable characters are expected at this point?

Ohh, sounds interesting as usual. This is one character I believe won't betray Dashiell. XD

There will be 16 PCs in all, but the most you will have in your party at any time is 9, if you make all the correct decisions. It's likely only 4 will participate in battles.

Several characters will be optional, either by choice, or as a consequence of your actions. Some of them will tag along with you for a while, then leave, only to rejoin later.

9, huh? O: Awesome, this is the first time we can have more than 8 people in the party in an Amaranth RPG.

This game sounds like fun. Malua and the other characters seem to be interesting so far and I like the idea of having multiple opportunities to have them join.

16? OMG, this will be awesome.

Wow, 16 playable characters? I must say, so far, in my opinion, the best part of this game is the replayable aspect. Really excited for this game. I wonder if the leveling mechanic is going to be the same as Av 3 where the whole party gets the experience, but it wouldn't bother me if it isn't because of the different combinations available in replaying it.

Here's a new character

Rumina left her home town of Dunken, a mining colony, and moved to Merivale when her brother was arrested and thrown into prison. She's a herbalist, and if you find the right plants and she has the recipes, she'll be able to make potions for you - very useful if you're a long way from the nearest shop.

Hmm, a herbalist. I wonder if we can get a sidequest to save her brother...

I misread Dunken as "Drunken" ^_^;;;;

I wonder what her bro was put in jail for.

Oooh, a potion maker character - I wonder if you'll be able to do alchemy or something like in TLO.

Quote:

Haha, same here!

mining colony???
kind of a village eh?


OOH!!! i just had a side quest idea....

New character:

On your travels, you will encounter a mute girl, who starts to follow you around. With no indication of who she is, or what she wants from you, do you let her come along? One thing becomes clear - she knows how to fight, and has some pretty neat tricks up her sleeve. But can she be trusted?

Since she can't tell you her name, you get to give her one

Sounds like a potential woobie. I approve. XD

I like mysterious mute characters. This game gets more awesome-sounding all the time.

Both new characters sound inte resting. I like the idea of an herbalist who can travel with the group. The mute girl may be able to speak with actions

The mute girl interests me the most so far.
