: *gets dragged into the booth* For the last time, sis! I already said a trillion times I don’t wanna host in a battle where either of my waifus could die! : *gets dragged into the booth* For the last time, sis! I already said a trillion times I don’t wanna host in a battle where either of my waifus could die!

: *sighs in annoyance* Seriously bro, get ahold of yourself. We have to do this, you know. We discussed about this for hours already! So get your butt on the host booth!

: … *sighs deeply in defeat* Fine, I’ll play along. For now…

: Great! Now, where were we… Aha!







: When the present time is in need of saving, you know someone has to step in and help.

: Whether this said hero comes from the future or the past, the time travelling hero goes to the present with one mission in mind; to save the world beyond their era.

: And these two brave ladies are just that, and are about to go head to head in a battle beyond the boundaries of time itself!

: Lucina, the future princess of Ylisse and my absolutely adorable waifu!

: *ahem* And Frederica, the Millennium Girl from a thousand years in the past!

: Who’s also another one of my waifus by the way! I have no idea why Eden finds so much joy in killing off my waifus…

: Hmph! Whatever, just go on with the script!

: Yeesh, talk about unattractive. That’s why she’s always been single!

*SLAP*

: Ow! Y-yeah, that’s just my high-maintenance sister Eden… Oh, and I’m Apex, just in case you already forgot!

--





Full Name: Lucina



Origin: Fire Emblem: Awakening



Age: Likely around 20 years old



Sex: Female



Height: Likely around 5'5(?)

Weight: Unknown



Classification: Human, Lord, Great Lord, Princess of Ylisse, "Marth", Time traveler, Daughter of Chrom, Wielder of Falchion



THEME:









: Lucina is the daughter of Chrom, who in turn is the king of Ylisse. This meant that from the day she was born, she was already destined to become the successor of Chrom.

: Proof of Lucina’s royal blood is in her left eye, the mark of Naga, also known as the Brand of the Exalt. It’s pretty cool to be honest, having your birthmark in your freakin’ eye of all places!

: One could say Lucina had a fairly normal childhood, except for the fact that she is royalty, so her early life did have perks. She was the next ruler of Ylisse, so of course she has special treatment.

: But then lo and behold, the Grimleal! These fanatical cultists wish to revive their “lord and savior” Grima so that he can rule the world. Guess what? They actually succeeded.

: With the world torn and in ruin, Lucina knew she had to save her beloved kingdom. So, while completely disregarding quantum physics, she leapt through time to save Ylisse and the entire world from utter annihilation.

: All while wearing a badass mask and calling herself “Marth”!





FEATS

- Saved Chrom and Lissa from Risen twice

- Easily defeated Lon'qu in a battle to determine a champion

-- Lon'qu is master swordsman, as described by Basilio

- Helped protect Emmeryn during an assassination attempt

- Is roughly equals with her father, Chrom

- Helped defeat Walhart

- Helped Robin, Chrom and the Shepherds defeat Grima

- In another timeline, she passed the Awakening by Tiki' hands, and defeated Grima

-- In this timeline, Grima had killed Naga

: Lucina is capable of various feats, and she is a pivotal member in Robin’s army. So much for kidnapping princesses.

: Stereotyping princesses as helpless damsels in distress is so eighties.

: Indeed, Apex. Lucina was able to save her father and aunt two times from the Risen-

: -Who are basically Fire Emblem style zombies!

: … And she was even able to defeat Grima in the Bad Future DLC. Granted, Grima was weakened, but that was still impressive. In fact, Lucina is said to be very skilled that she is roughly comparable to her own father!

: Talk about a princess destroying another castle instead of being trapped in one. Hehe.





PHYSICALITY AND ATTRIBUTES

STRENGTH AND ATTACK POTENCY



- Scaling to Fire Emblem Fates characters, should be around Multi-city block in AP

- Blocked a blow from a well-built Risen wielding an Axe from behind

- Can deflect Chrom's strikes and match Chrom's strikes

- Can physically keep up with Risen, well-trained soldiers, etc.

- Casually destroyed a wall during training



DURABILITY AND ENDURANCE



- Scaling to Fire Emblem Fates characters, should be around Multi-city block in Dura

- Can tank hits from Risen, Wyvern Riders, Paladins, etc.

- Can stand in lava in an active volcano and only take a bit of damage (Chapter 18: Sibling Blades)

- Can tank magical blasts

-- Blasts of fire, wind and electricity included

- Tanked a near full power attack from Grima, implying she has high durability

-- Barely lived, but still notable

SPEED AND REFLEXES



- Her father could react to lightning, so this likely scales to Lucina, who is at equal to if not superior to Chrom

- Can dodge magical lightning like Bolting, and can react to arrows in mid-flight

- Can keep up with Wyverns, Griffons, Pegasi and Horses

MASTER SWORDSWOMAN



- Defeated Lon'qu with ease

- In supports, implied to be superior to her father

MILITARY LEADER



- In the Bad Future DLC, Lucina leads the other child characters as a capable leader

: In terms of strength, Lucina may look like a twig, but she’s one tough tree stump. She’s strong enough to break a wall; by accident! And when scaling to Fates characters, she gets Multi-City block levels of power!



: And that’s not all. She is also strong enough to physically keep up with much larger and bulkier warriors such as the Risen, and even her own father Chrom.

: Heck, Lucina’s even tougher than a brick too! She can survive being hit by swords, axes, spears, magic blasts and even freakin’ lava!

: Despite having little to no armor, Lucina has tanked some pretty hard hits. Even attacks from Grima, who is well known to be Continent level, cannot put her down for good.

: But because of her armorless features, she is pretty darn fast. She is quick enough to keep pace with pegasi, wyverns and mounted soldiers! She is even quick enough to react to lightning-based magic attacks and the like!

: We shouldn’t count out her swordwomanship. She’s extremely good in the ways of the blade, and she has bested Lon’qu, who is described as a master swordsman.

: And to bring up the DLC again. She has shown that she van be a great military leader, leading the children characters against the reign of Grima in said DLC! Man, she really IS of royal blood!

WEAPONS AND EQUIPMENT







RAPIER

- Uses: 35

- Power: 5

- Accuracy: 90%

- Crit chance: 10%

- Extra effective on beasts and armored units







FALCHION

- Uses: Infinite

- Power: 12

- Accuracy: 80%

- Crit Chance: 5%

- Extra effective against dragon riders- dragon-based or evil dragon units

- Can be used to heal 20 HP (A full quarter of Lucina's health), at any time

: Lucina’s most basic weapons are her rapier and Falchion. Her rapier is perfect for stabby jobs, and is very effective on heavily armored units… As well as against beasts.

: … Why? I do not see the connection between beasts and rapiers. Any other weapon would fare just as well against a beast.

: Whatever. It’s not like her opponent is wearing armor! Moving on to the Falchion, if you may?

: Right. Unlike her rapier, which has limited uses, the Parallel Falchion can be used indefinitely. It is forged with Naga’s tooth, and is said to wield dragon-slaying properties.

: It’s also useful in the sense that it can heal her wounds! Unlike these flaming swords, they just burn me instead of healing me!

*Apex juggles his flaming swords, but Eden performs a water spell and extinguishes the flaming blades*

: Hey! What gives!?

: … If you keep juggling those blades, you’ll burn the place down! Stop being clumsy!

: But I spent 100,000 G on that…

: But that’s not all. We’ll be giving Lucina her Exalted Falchion and Fire Emblem, like in the DLC story. So technically, a composite Lucina.

: … Geez, not even a sorry…? Whatever, fine then…





EXALTED FALCHION



- Uses: Infinite

- Power: 15

- Accuracy: 80%

- Crit Chance: 10%

- Used in the Bad Future DLC

- Awakened by Tiki

- Defeated a weakened Grima in one hit

-- This gives Lucina Country to Continent level AP with Exalted Falchion

- Extra effective against dragon riders- dragon-based and evil dragon units

- Can be used to heal 20 HP (A full quarter of Lucina's health), at any time





FIRE EMBLEM: SHIELD OF SEALS



- Legendary Artifact of Ylisse

- Forged by Naga to protect humanity from earth dragons

- Allows Lucina to awaken Parallel Falchion

: Now this is what we’re talking about! By “awakening” her Falchion, she can attain the blade’s strongest form; The Exalted Falchion!

: And it now glows red! How cool is that!

: Aside from glowing, the Exalted Falchion basically turns on Lucina to God Mode. With it, she slew Grima in a single hit. The power boost given by the Exalted Falchion is enormous.

: And the Fire Emblem helps her out too! How cool is that, huh? It is needed to awaken her true power as she wakes her blade! And she can use it as a shield too, I guess.



SKILLS AND ABILITIES







DUAL STRIKE+

- Increases the chance of attacking twice





CHARM

- All allies within a 3 square radius and this skill's wielder get a 5% support bonus for accuracy and avoid





AETHER

- As a Lord, Lucina has, roughly, a 14% chance of activating this skill

-- As Great lord, 22% chance of activating this skill

- Hits twice, the first hit using Sol (Recover HP equal to half the damage dealt to the enemy. If the target has less HP than the MT of the weapon, the user will heal from half of the target's remaining HP.) and the second hit using Luna (Halves enemy's Defense and Resistance)

: Now on to her skillset. Actually, the only thing of note here is Aether.

: Aether is awesome in the sense that it’s actually using two skills at once! Sol drains HP, then Luna halves the enemy’s defenses before striking!

: We could also consider Dual Strike+, but really Lucina can attack more than two times in any given time.

: But that’s not all. She can even get another upgrade! That’s right, I’m talking about a sweet new upgrade from Lord; Great Lord!









CLASS CHANGES

- Triggered by a Master Seal

- Changes from a Lord into a Great Lord

- All stats get a significant upgrade

-- Speed and Skill stats get the biggest buffs

- Gives her the Rightful King Skill









RIGHTFUL KING

- Increases the Activation rate for certain skills by 10%

-- Only skill that Lucina has that will be affected by this is Aether

: Now THIS is what we’re talking about! As a Great Lord, Lucina’s stats skyrocket! She basically becomes stronger, tougher, smarter, more skilled and faster!

: It even gives her the new skill “Rightful King”, which increases the chances of triggering Aether. Which if you may recall, is a VERY useful skill. Definitely handy.

: Oh, and since we’re using composite Lucina, might as well add in some Smash while we’re at it!







SMASH BROS. MOVESET

Shield Breaker

- Thrusts her weapon forward

- Can shatter Smash shields

- Can be charged

Dancing Blade

- Unleashes a sword combo

- Can be followed up with several more strikes

- Opens into a variety of different combos

Dolphin Slash

- Swipes upwards

- User rises high into the air

- Pretty good vertical recovery

Counter

- Guards for a second, if struck, will counter with a stronger attack

Final Smash: Critical Hit

- Dashes forward and strikes the foe

- Incredibly powerful, can OHKO most foes (Smash Mechanics)

- Hits all opponents in the users path

: With her Smash moveset, it is apparent that Lucina is a deadly force in close combat. She can easily pull off sword combos and even counter attacks with incredible precision, given the right timing!

: Her Final Smash “Critical Hit” is pretty nifty too. Basically does immense damage to anyone who stands in her way!

: Now that we’ve covered all of that, it’s time to address her weaknesses.





WEAKNESSES



- Despite her impressive durability, not much armor

-- Unless you count her shield when she turns into a Great Lord that is

- Abilities are somewhat situational

- Other weapons aside from Falchion have limited uses

- Not as great of a tactician as Robin

- No ranged options

: As with everyone else, Lucina has a couple of drawbacks.

: First of all, she lacks decent long range skills. In a fight against a master of long ranged combat, this may prove to be hard.

: Yeah, and her Aether skill is left up to chance. Lucina cannot willingly activate it. Very much luck-based, if I say so myself.

: But despite these flaws, Lucina has proven time and time again that she is able to accomplish great things.

: Yep. That’s how amazing my waifu is!





"I prayed to the Hero-King for a small part of the strength he used to save the world. But I need that subterfuge no longer. I choose to fight as Lucina now. The name that reminds me of the strength in the man and woman who chose it." - Lucina, when talking about her name

--





Full Name: Frederica "Ricky" Irving



Origin: Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millenniumm Girl



Age: 1018 years old chronologically, 18 years old physically



Sex: Female



Height: Unknown, probably around 4'11" based on her age and build



Weight: Unknown, probably around 47 kilograms based on her age and build



Classification: Human, Scientist of the Yggdrasil Project, Gunner, Explorer



THEME:





: In the Etrian Odyssey universe, there lies an incredibly massive tree. Well to be more precise, incredibly massive trees.

: You’d think that this world is your classic medieval fantasy world… NOPE!

: 1000 years ago, the world of Etrian Odyssey was incredibly similar to real world Earth. And in this Earth, the world was incredibly polluted, and it just wasn’t getting any better.

: So a team of scientist decided to take it upon themselves to save the world from filth. Their solution? Create 7 ginormous, filth absorbing trees.

: This team of scientist would be known as the “Yggdrasil Project”, and they were able to save the world from utter annihilation due to heavy pollution.

: But the heavy pollution took its toll on the poor trees. Their cores have absorbed so much pollution that they mutated into beings that look like Cthulhu’s relatives.

: Anticipating this, the team made several failsafes. I won’t go into detail for all of them, but one of them is the use of Gungnir, a weapon so powerful it can completely wipe out an Yggdrasil tree… And the surrounding lands.

: And so, Frederica Irving volunteered to undergo cold sleep so that she could use the weapon in the far future and save the world. So essentially, she traveled through time and into the future. Nice.





FEATS

- Survived cold sleep for 1000 years

- With her team members, explored the entire labyrinth of Yggdrasil

- Defeats various monsters and creatures

- Navigates entire labyrinths with her teammates

- Defeated Etreant, who was powerful enough to create a serum strong enough to damage and weaken the Yggdrasil Core/Primevil

- Defeated the 3 Elemental Dragons (Great Dragon, Blizzard King and Storm Emperor), and the Storm Emperor is a being strong enough to destroy one of the six wards of the city-sized High Lagaard in Etrian Odyssey 2, specifically the West Ward

- Stopped M.I.K.E. from activating Gungnir, which would have destroyed the entire Yggdrasil labyrinth and its surroundings lands

- Saved the world with her teammates from the Primevil, who is powerful enough to destroy the entire Yggdrasil Labyrinth and even the whole world

: Ricky has pulled off some pretty intense feats, with most of them having help from her four other guildmates.

: She has defeated various monsters, explored the entire Yggdrasil labyrinth, defeated the powerful Etreant, and she even succeeded in her task in destroying the Yggdrasil Core, or the Primevil.

: Yeah, she’s still got some more trees to deal with, but hey at least she’s destroyed one already without resorting to nuking the entire damn continent!





PHYSICALITY AND ATTRIBUTES

SUPERHUMAN PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS



- Is faster and tougher than the average human

- Performed superhuman feats such as dodging lightning bolts and gunfire

STRENGTH AND ATTACK POTENCY



- Should be around Multi-Continent level in AP for defeating Primeval

- Admittedly her weakest point in a physical sense

-- She has a hard time wielding a longsword as shown in the intro cinematic of the game

--- AP-wise however, she's much stronger

- Strong enough to dual wield pistols

- The Gunner class has top-notch attack with their firearms

-- Same cannot be said without their guns

- Strong enough to defeat Etreant, M.I.K.E. and Primevil

DURABILITY AND ENDURANCE



- Should be around Multi-Continent level in AP for defeating Primeval

- The Gunner class has mediocre defenses

- Tough enough to survive attacks from powerful bosses such as Etreant, M.I.K.E., the 3 Elemental Dragons and a weakened Primevil

-- Later, when Primevil was restored to its full power, could also survive its attacks

- Can survive various attacks, from elemental attacks to cannon fire from futuristic tanks

SPEED AND REFLEXES



- One of the better stats of the Gunner class

-- In fact, Gunner is the second fastest class in Etrian Odyssey 2 next to the Survivalist, and Gunners are also slightly more durable

- With Action Boost, can attack and use skills twice in a row

- Can dodge bullets, cannon fire and other elemental attacks

- Dodged the Wyvern’s lightning breath attack

EXPERT MARKSWOMAN



- As a Gunner, is an expert in the use of firearms

- Is skilled enough to dual wield pistols

-- While in game she uses only one pistol, she is shown in official art to be able to dual wield pistols

- Has a wide range of Gunner skills

- Able to imbue fire, electricity and ice energy into her bullets

INTELLIGENCE AND SKILL



- Should be smarter than an average human, seeing as she was a scientist before during her days as a member of the Yggdrasil Project

- Perfectly capable of operating the complicated machines in Gladsheim

: Ricky isn’t really the strongest person in a physical sense… But Attack Potency-wise, she can damage even Multi-Continental enemies!



: She has a hard time lifting a longsword in the intro cutscene, though this may be due to the fact that she isn’t the right class suited to wield such a weapon.

: However, she more than makes up to this with her speed and reflexes. As a Gunner, she has insane speed!

: Using this speed, Ricky can dodge the Wyvern’s lightning breath, bullets, and even cannon fire from a futuristic tank named Gimle.

: As for her durability, well she can tank hits from the Yggdrasil Core. Who can destroy the entire Yggdrasil if it wanted to, and is around Multi-Continent level! Then again, the Gunner class doesn’t really have the best defense…

: She again makes up for this with her skill in firearms. She can use a variety of Gunner skills, which we will focus on later.





WEAPONS AND EQUIPMENT

AGNEYASTRA

- Strongest gun in the game available to the Gunner Class

- Increases ATK by 201, TP by 25, and ups the power of Force Boost

DRAGOON MAIL

LIGHTNING GAGE



- Strongest Armwear that is exclusive to the Gunner Class

- Increases DEF by 43, AGI by 3, and increases resistance to Electric-based attacks





GRIMOIRE STONES



- Stones that hold skills

-- Can be used to get skills a Gunner wouldn’t normally have

- Can even get skills from monsters and other classes

-- This include OP status effect skills from bosses

: As a Gunner, Ricky’s main choice of weapons are pistols. She can use these guns to amazing effects!

: Such as but not limited to; Imbuing with elemental energy, firing massively powerful shots, binding an enemy’s limbs and even healing. Yes, she can shoot herself to heal herself with Medic Bullet.

: So, Persona 3 style? Huh, no wonder why both these games are made by ATLUS.

: She also has some armor and armwear, and we chose the strongest ones you can get in the games.

: But what’s really cool is her Grimoire Stones! These stones are capable of harnessing skills she normally can’t have! You know that annoying AOE status effect skill? You can get it too and kill your FOEs! Damn those FOEs...!

: With Grimoire Stones, Ricky can further enhance her versatility. She can even get Grimoire Stones in battle, meaning she could potentially gain more based on her opponent’s skills.

: Annnd speaking of versatility, let us take a look at her skill set, shall we?

: She even has a powerful close range skill known as Point Blank, where she reduces the range of her skills, but increase their accuracy and damage. That’s gotta hurt!

: And since the Gunner class is from Etrian Odyssey 2, we decided to give Ricky the updated skill list AND the Gunner’s Force Boost Skills!

FORCE BOOST SKILLS

Action Boost

- For 3 turns, Gun skills will be used twice in a row, although the second usage will be weaker.

Supreme Bolt

- Powerful stab attack to 1 enemy, high chance to stun. Unusable if her arms are bound.

: And she can fully “break” her Force Boost by using “Supreme Bolt”, an extremely powerful stab attack to one enemy that has a high chance to stun when hit. She can’t use it however if her arms are somehow unavailable.

: In order to activate her Force Boost, Ricky has deal and take a lot of damage. Meaning she won’t be bustin’ out this trump card until a later time in the actual fight, where she has sustained enough damage and/or dealt enough damage to her opponent.

: With all of these in mind, it’s time to consider her weaknesses.





WEAKNESSES

- Is relatively inexperienced in combat, due to being a scientist originally

-- Has also been asleep for 1000 years

- Is weak in a physical sense (Like punching and lifting), and has mediocre defenses

-- In fact, some of her skills (Most especially the “Charged” skills) lower her already mediocre defenses

- Useless without her guns, or if her arms are bound

- Lost to Arianna from Etrian Odyssey Untold 2 as Yuji Himukai’s (The artist of the Etrian series) ultimate waifu

: …

: … What? Why are you staring at my face so much?

: Why did you add that last weakness?

: Well duh, it’s true! I love Ricky more than Arianna, yet the artist loves Arianna more!

: I don’t even… *sighs* Whatever. Anyways, Ricky has a couple of shortcomings that stop her from being the perfect fighter.

: Well first of all, she isn’t as experience as her opponent is. Also, she shares the same trait as her opponent; mediocre defenses due to lack of armor.

: Mitigated by the fact that they both survived powerful blows from their respective villains.

: Also, Ricky pretty much too reliant on her guns. Could spell bad news if she runs out of TP or she gets disarmed. But regardless, she’s still Ricky and is still another one of my many waifus.

: But if you’re not careful, she’ll turn you into 1000 years old worth of history.





"Our mission was to destroy the core... But not just that. We were doing it to save lives.” - Ricky, when speaking to M.I.K.E.



--

: So there, the prelude ends here!

: Stay tuned for when the actual battle gets released. See ya till then!
