Francisco and Brent

Both pirates and they both have support conversations with each other.

According to the character profile, Francisco was involved in a band of pirates in Jagrell and then lived as a fugitive and joins Braxus on Chapter 20.

Brent lived as a carpenter until his village was destroyed by pirates leaving only himself as the survivor. With no other option, he joins a group of pirates who he later finds out were the ones that destroyed his village (he would find this out in the beginning of Chapter 16 where he will be having a conversation with the boss of the pirates).

So then Brent joins Braxus easily as their goals are the same--defeating the pirates.

Some things that I wish to change. As the info on the nations was little back when I made Brent's description, I did not state where his destroyed village was. Let's say that it was in Jagrell and that he lived in Jagrell and only followed the pirates to Rayon to discover the truth.

And to connect Francisco with Brent, I'm proposing a story connecting the two. Let's say that the band of pirates Francisco was with was the same that destroyed Brent's village. And so of course Brent would have a grudge against this guy. But then there is a little problem that comes between this.

The problem being that the pirates that attacked Brent's village were unjust, cruel pirates. But the pirates that Francisco was with were not this bad and were attacked by the army. So what is the solution to this? Time.

Let's say that when Francisco was with these pirates, they were your average pirates and were just and had morals. Then the army comes and attacks these pirates killing their captain (who was a good captain (picture Fargus)) and separating Francisco from them. Then let's say that this other guy (boss on Chapter 16) assumes the leader position and leads the pirates into doing many bad things where they eventually destroy Brent's village.

Then, Brent joins the pirates and stays with them until he learns the truth of what these pirates did to his village and joins Braxus. Ok, so then Braxus kills these pirates and their evil captain in Chapter 16 and move on from there. Then Francisco joins and Brent and him have some in depth conversations where Brent eventually ends up liking Francisco as he learns that Francisco was not part of his village's destruction.

So that's what I am suggesting for a connection between Brent and Francisco. Of course, this story won't be in the main story but it would be read in the support conversations between the two. I'm willing to do the support conversations for these two. I just need to know if what story I got here is good to include.

Edit: Something important that I forgot to mention. The band of pirates needs a name. They can't be some nameless pirates that Brent and Francisco have relation to. The name for the band of pirates is important because, well not the effort of the name chosen but for the name itself as it will be used in the story on Chapter 16 and support conversations, etc.

I find something funny about this. Chapter 16 has to do with pirates, and chapter 16x in FE7 has to do with pirates. Something always about the number 16...Also, I think you should consult Firefly about writing a Francisco support, he gets kinda touchy about other people writing for his character/s.

Well I thought that we really didn't make any personal ownership to the characters but rather they are shared. But if the whole ownership gets in the way, I came up with Brent so one of us is going to have to write it. I don't think there will be a problem though but I will talk to Firefly about this however I won't wait too long for a reply.

I think Firefly might be away. Just look at the other supports made for that character and stay close to those and the personality/story outlined for the character and you should be fine.

The other support with Brent was the character Alice. I don't think there should be any problems making those support conversations.

It's not so much "ownership" as that other people could distort a character's personality, etc. if they were to write for that character. At least, that's the way I see it.
