QUESTION MEME KINDA!!!


Except mostly I have a hankering to sort characters into Sabra teams/nations.


If you didn't play/stalk Sabra, there were 17 regular teams (plus one special enforcement team split three ways). Each team tended to have a general personality you can reads about here.

Those sixteen teams were also the basis of the sixteen nations of the world's history. (ICly it's the reverse of that: the old nations were the basis of the teams.) You can see info on the nations here. Basically every nation was it's own super special snowflake, from the Steampunk Atheist Bibliocracy, to ~Crystal Towers~ full of sketchy political intrigue, nomadic desert mages, crazy swamp jerks, THERE ARE MANY OPTIONS.

ANYWAY IF YOU COMMENT HERE I will sort your character(s) into teams and/or nations at your preference. (Normally a team and nation would have the same answer buuuuut)

Also I will then ask you a question I guess. I just want to do some Sabra sorting y'all.

[pencilpremonition]

Oh god this is kind of awesome. Sabra me!

[maho_shoujoker]

OK FOR TEAMS RIGHT OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD I wanna say Vulpecula, because they tend to have her kind of awful luck, also without knowing the character too well, I think she would have been pretty suited for their style of disgruntled codependence. Cygnus would also be a good choice, because they tend to be of kind of dubious morality? But also they tended to be really competent in some venue, so she might have developed inferiority feelings there. She also may have done well in Canis, which was a sort of noble but hard-luck team, that liked to deal heavily in morality. Also there were a lot of mind-power people there, so they might have been well suited to help her out.

AS FOR OLD SABRA, I ttttthiiiiink I want to stick with Cygnus, where she probably would have been horribly taken advantage of by the ruing class :'D

[maho_shoujoker]

Oh and question-wise. Show me one of your favorite threads you've ever had with Becca, in Thusia or otherwise!

[larcenous]

BOO :(

[maho_shoujoker]

YOU CAN ALSO ASK ME OTHER QUESTIONS!!

[oi_theoi]

You should totes sort the gods too, js

[maho_shoujoker]

SURE!! As Gods (where they were most worshiped) or as humanized characters?

[moonineclipse]

Zel we know about.

Any thoughts on Melisan? And Leedin, if you like.

[thevineintervention]

I DO NOT KNOW MELISAN WELL but the intrigue and identity fuckery screams Cygnus to me. You can correct me if I'm wrong though.

Leedin as a god probably would have been most respected in Canis, Ursa, Delphinus, other highly organized but still reverent nations. AS A CHARACTER I imagine she would be an Ophiuchus dedicated to Kolotha, probably originally from Ursa.

[brokenbird]

Sort my three!

[thevineintervention]

GOSH WHERE COULD RED GO I DON'T EVEN KNOW!!!


And IIRC Ahito is a disgruntled healer? I GUESS THAT IS LACERTA. I don't know Ahito at all. :|a


Tim I thiiiiink. Hmm. Team-wise he would have been a good fit for a few places. I feeeeeel like probably Vulp would have been the right choice? For disgruntled jokers who are also horribly damaged. Yeah I think that's the right choice. Old Sabra Tim was probably a Vulp that wandered away from his clan at a young age, dicked around the countryside for a while, maybe hooked up to punch crime with a disgruntled Ophiuchus!Bruce??? And then got kidnapped by some SKETCH AS FUCK LEPUS CULTISTS. Bad times.

ACCURATE?

[freelancetogoodhome]

Sabra me for Diarmuid and Senji. Oh, and Tare, I guess.

[thevineintervention]

I DON'T REALLY KNOW SENJI AT ALL. What's his deal? Likes to hit things, awkward around girls? I would probably put him on Pyxis.

Diarmuid goes straight to Canis. Tries hard to be a noble decent upstanding warrior, gets shit on constantly anyway for no particular reason. The harder he tries to be honorable, the more he gets shit on. CANIS. The only reason I wouldn't put him in old Canis automatically is that I'm not sure they necessarily have a night structure. Corvus maybe?

Actually, come to think of it, he could have fit really well on Corvus as well, since that's sort of. Super Loyal Minion team. But I think maybe we wouldn't put him on Corvus because he would have been too happy there. |D GO SUFFER WITH THE TEAM FULL OF DECENT PEOPLE.

Tare. Hmm, Tare is hard to place. While flowers and courtship say Lacerta, they are also a little . . . explicit. So maybe more like Pavo, which is very big on aesthetics? Cygnus too. :|a Hmm. She's probably respected in a very sort of formalized way in Delphinus as well.

[maho_shoujoker]

ALSO YOU SHOULD GIVE ME A FIRST IMPRESSION FROM DIARMUID ON MY DIRTY HIPPY :3c

[familiarized]

RIN AND PANTSLESS!SABER AND SHORTKIDU :O

[maho_shoujoker]

Rin on a team, depends on a timeframe specifically but I think she would have been Pyxis or Cygnus. She does have a lot of PUNCH INNA FACE!!! to her, but on the other hand she might be a little too . . . refined and competent for Pyxis. So she can go on Onee-Sama Team. Old Sabra prrrobably still Cygnus, yeah. I mean they were the sketchy nobility who built cities out of crystal that seems a pretty solid fit!!

Girlgamesh on a team I feel really would have had to be Lepus because that's the only team balls-out enough to deal with Emperor Nero. I mean yeah I guess she is red and punches people but no. She would have had fun on team of yandere psychos that would have supported her pantslessness as much as possible. Also: built-in minions. Yeah she's hella Lepus. Old Sabra wise, probably same deal, or maybe Lynx because they love conquering shit.

Tallkidu team-wise would have been one of those nice characters that could have fit well in probably like almost half the teams. Since he can be a good stabilizer, he could have gone to somewhere with other characters of similar personalities (probably Canis for nobility, or Pyxis for violence), but I could also see how he would have done well as a balance on a more volatile team. Some part of me really wants to say Orion? Obviously Lacerta would have cuddled him constantly too. Or Cetus probably could have used SOME voice of reason at some point. Why not this loli beastman?

Old Sabra it depends on how you were going to do the backstory. If he was still a clay doll the gods made he probably could have gone anywhere. There were beastmen made by Surgeon wandering around Orion, so he could have been one of them as well! Yeah in fact regardless of backstory I feel like Orions probably the right place. Lots of wilderness and fighting and a harsh environment, but also a lot of earnestness and loyalty.

So is playing pantless Saber everything you dreamed of and more?

[canihelpyou]

SORT MINE except Persephone and Mami already kinda were...

[maho_shoujoker]

MUPPET GOES ON LEPUS. HILARITY ENSUES.

[flashofbrilliance]

Sabra me for Izumi and Minato?

[thevineintervention]

UH I DON'T REALLY KNOW IZUMI but I guess maybe Ursa because he is a bear-fucker?? And Minato goes to Canis because noble and shounen and totally fucked.

Y/N??

[autorejoin]

Hit me baby.

[thevineintervention]

UHM, let's see just on Sabra teams I think Lacerta would not have been a BAD choice. Though if it was when Kira was on Orion obviously CEPHEUS FOR GREAT LULZ. Cetus could have also worked for the never make good choices ever option.


OLD SABRA either he is 500% Lacertan and just "yup, plant guy" or he was from uninvolved country and got TOTALLY FUCKED, like maybe got involved in some nasty business with a Lepus doctor working for the Cygnus monarch and now he accidentally his body totally Lacerta.


UHM UHM tell me something Aerta and Katou should do

[pyxising]

DO TEMPEST.

[thevineintervention]

I AM!!! not sure.

Team wise, half-breed means Lacerta or Ursa. I could also see her fitting in well on Canis, because Formally Trained Mage. Buuuut the kind of Unsafe Edge makes me lean towards Ursa, who I think team wise tended towards Danger much more than either of those others.


YOU SHOULD RAMBLE AT ME ABOUT HERB ACKSTORY SO I CAN DO THIS A LITTLE BETTER.

[unwieldyfate]

SABER GOES WHERE?? You can do SHIKI too if you think he would have ended up not in Del.

[thevineintervention]

WELL I ALREADY PUT LANCER ON CANIS, though she would also fit pretty well. Also she's blue. But I think also she would fit well on Lynx, because that is a good LEADERSHIP!!1! team, and I think she would have had fun dealing with Lelouche doing his Lelouche thing. (Haha and if she went on Lynx we would put Lancer on Corvus so that he could still be in Knights with her). I COULD ALSO SEE HER ON DELPHINUS because srs bssssss


Uhm uhm as for SHIKI, I think I would have said Pyxis actually, or even Hydra. Kinda depending on the era of each of those teams.

SO SABER WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ARCHER'S MASTER? CLEARLY SHE IS LEGIT AND COMPETENT.
