i am alone in my domestic Amber/Zelkov fortress. you all simply do not understand the sheer potential of a man knitting another man a sweater and the recipient actually knowing how difficult it is and gushing over how it’s even better than his own family’s handiwork. and then Amber invites Zelkov to move into his hamlet. like. i feel like it’s one conversation short of Amber’s mother demanding he make an honest man out of Zelkov.
My prejudgement of the engage cast: Brodia edition
This is as of before I venture into chapter 5, so obviously I don’t actually know ANYTHING about anyone except what I’ve accidentally absorbed through fanart. This is all purely based on their appearance and the vibe. I’ll reblog with what I actually think of them after I’ve finished the game, or have sufficient enough exposure to them \\\٩(๑`^´๑)۶////
(These are still really harsh, no i do not mellow with time and yes I’m an excellent person with first acquaintances how could you guess??)

pathetic little meow meow who’s had a bucket of water dumped on him periodically
I don’t know if I’ve said it before but THE most morally unsound of the entire game but in a nice way (chaotic good style)
war crime is okay if you win the war then threaten anyone who brings it up
Very emotional but doesn’t show it on the outside, probably depressed but that’s his default setting
Depending on your choices in game, he’ll either snap and become a killing machine and like it or turn into a certified Alear malewife
practices his eyeliner while crying in a locked bathroom (bonus points if it’s his parents bathroom)
Has nice parents but acts out like he has a rocky home life
has a brother he doesn’t like
Comes across like he thinks he’s the best but actually he’s insecure

Must be under surveillance 24/7
Smokes weed
Lapis
Tastes like yoghurt if you licked her

I have a massive crush on her and Citrinne, we could be poly 😳❤️
why are her eyebrows above her fringe???
has magic eyebrows
secretly likes to have expensive, nice things but doesn’t want anyone to know because she feels bad about it
judges you but then says she would never
has a massive appetite and will eat anyone wait I mean anything

Citrinne
Knows what she likes and likes what she knows
Is she gay or European? A genius would say why not both
Snobby and upper class but would snap your neck if you told her that
Same vibe as Dorothea
social justice warrior
sarcastic in an intimidating way
wine aunt
Also likes expensive things but is very money conscious
her time is precious but if you were ill she would spend all day and then some caring for you
thinks giving Starbucks gift cards for birthdays makes her a god
Money launders
Diamant
Constantly comes off angry for no reason but only because he isn’t very articulate
Believes in the power of camaraderie and friendship more than the care bears
Seems strict and unfeeling but in reality is SO the opposite

Pretentious bitch

Jade
Also a lesbian
can crush a melon with her thighs
Brodia is the nation of gay women and I’m here for it
Married to her axe because that’s definitely what she wields
the only aspect of her personality is that she likes weapons
Oh and women
Extremely and unapologetically blunt
A vigilante and her opinion is always correct
that’s all I’ve got to say
I take back what I said about Solm potentially being my favourite Nation, these guys are way swaggier (−_−;)
A royal knight of Brodia; Diamant’s retainer. He’s a romanticist who loves the fables and legends of the world and an endlessly bright and pure person. He is extremely fond of alpacas.
Thoughts:
He seems to be pure. For a blonde, his hair isn't that bad and although he also seems to be super loud and potentially obnoxious, I find it overwhelmingly endearing that he loves alpacas. It's such a random quirk but lovely all the same. His outfit is really nice. The black, red and white all seem to play off one another very well.
Looks (Hair): 7/10 - Great length
Looks (Outfit): 8/10 - Black and red is lovely
Looks (Face): 7/10 - He's handsome
Fighting Style Flair: 7/10 - He twirls his lance before doing anything. I love it
Personality (1st Impression): 7/10 - His love for alpacas is cute but him being loud is meh
Class Fit: 8/10 - He likes alpacas, so him being a class with an animal is fitting
