So, I can’t upload images yet (I’m still not allowed to yet), so I just decided to describe my project here just for fun. This will just be a text topic for now, and I might upload screenshots of what I’m doing once I can upload images.
So, my project is called Fire Emblem: Descendants. It’s basically a what-if scenario of what would happen if Chrom delivered the final blow to Grima in Awakening. The story takes place roughly a thousand years after Awakening, and it follows a young girl named Marissa (I know there’s already a Sacred Stones character named Marisa, but I liked the name, and there’s other FE characters with identical names) who is a descendant of Chrom, as well as Marth and Lucina. Ylisse is now in ruins, now that the Fell Dragon had been resurrected, and the Exalt and Queen had been murdered by Grima 17 years prior. Marissa, who was a newborn at the time, is living in an orphanage with her childhood friends, Leah, Calvin, and Allen (all descendants of some of Marth’s allies), unaware of her true identity as the Princess of Ylisse, but once she eventually does find out, she must go on a journey to reclaim Ylisse with Marth (and eventually Chrom and Lucina) by her side as she looks for other descendants of heroes from the past.
I haven’t finished the story yet, and some of the characters, I’m still deciding on a couple of Ancestor characters for. I’ve also been toying around with the (kinda bizarre) idea of adding Itsuki Aoi and Touma Akagi from Tokyo Mirage Sessions as Ancestor characters, but never have written a scene or implemented them in my prototype, as I can’t find portraits for any of the TMS characters.
As you can probably tell, this project is FAR from finished, but I wanted to share it and see what other people think about it. I do realize it’s pretty similar to Engage, but I’m trying my best to separate the concept from the concept of Engage. So far, I have succeeded a little bit, but it still needs A LOT of work.
So, what do you guys think so far?
