(So, uh....)

With Jumza and Pride back as actually competent people and Choto probably still around somewhere, do you still want/need my "help", Elric?

Because I'm not going be able to get that practice event done by tonight most like on account of last night having been even worse than I expected that I ended up sleeping most of today.

I'll still be available otherwise pretty much 24/7, at least for the next three weeks.

The more the better, Jumza has school, Pride has a busy schedule, and Choto never volunteered, he was only praising Pride lol.

Don't forget bout us Reks > I will find you! 
-And Good Luck!

Jumza, I'm glad to hear you are still here. Haven't heard from you for a bit now

(In trying to get an actual winning recording of Sweegy Woods still, I'm tempted to ask: Why the hell are Dragons such [powerful] bastards?)

What I really want to ask is something I could have sworn I had asked already though:


"Why was the name of Seymour chosen as Ramza's pseudonym?"


I'm pretty sure I can guess, but I just want to see what the official answer is.

Sorry man, I must've missed this somehow.

First off, because they are fucking DRAGONS 

Second off, The name Duke Seymour as you and most of you know is a disguise put in place by King Delita, however the name itself was something that I'm sure Durbs just pulled out of a hat. (honestly, it always reminded me of the principle from the simpsons, but whatever)

1. Given that there isn't any permanent (?) Brave and Faith alteration, where motivated the decision to have Mediator no longer be a generic class? (At least, I'm relatively sure it isn't anymore even though I haven't opened everything since Bandit basically is Mediator.)

Because Animist > Mediator. I'm a HUGE fan of Blue Magic. In fact the 4 (not from Ivalice) were actually supposed to only have 4 jobs each , all unique to them (using RAD3) and one of Clouds was suppose to be Enemy Skill, which was later loosely adapted into the Animist generic.
(these early ideas were obviously scrapped for the final version)

1. When it comes to the original side-characters, how were Bartholume, Leesha & Olivander conceived?

Like Alma, Bartolume did not exist in the early script, it was not until we went back to fill all plotholes (fucking Raven) that we added Delita, Bart, Alma, Rad, Alicia and Lavian. Due to the story change we had to adapt the story of Duke seymour, as well as the helper that gets them out of the castle, which would be someone on the inside, more of a caretaker of Ramza and Alma themselves.

Leesha and Olivander exist for the same reason as Tesnya. Originally there was no scene written for Bariaus Valley. So I made that one up using the enemy from Dorter, these where nothing more than random unique joining chars originally. Once again, once we went back and redid a good portion of the story, and Delita came into play with his Twin(ees) assassins these characters were given names and a real story.

As for where the names Olivander, Leesha, and Bartolume came from? Idk, probably some random thing Durbs was into that week.

Well, Chapter 2 eventing has started and my eventers have disappeared

Any other takers?

Watching both of these once i finish catching up on The Damned videos, thank you and great job as always fellas

Fucking love the thought of having some Shadow Hearts and Suikoden sprites. However Yuris monster fusions would not be possible in the case of normal battle unfortunately.

You don't have the take screen shots of the palettes
The number under the EVTCHR is the palette. Just keep increasing/decreasing it until you find the desired Palette. 
You can export any EVTCHR with of any of it's Palettes. Or Rather, you can export the same sheet with all the different palettes
separately. Unlike Spritesheet where all the palettes are stored on 1 sheet, the EVTCHR Editor lets you extract all the palettes
of an EVTCHR separately as different files.

Awesome job CONMAN! Thief Zero looks great, Ironman as well

Welcome back, as Celdia mentioned, it's always great to have new (old) spriters/graphic artists joining up. We have some pretty awesome prizes for the current sprite contest as well, so be sure to check it out (also mentioned by Celdia) it might be a good way to hone up on some of those latent skills.
