This week on the fifty-fourth level of The RPG Cave, Garret and Ryan talk about their favorite support characters in RPGs!
Clearing the Dungeon
Reading From the Sacred Texts
- Our favorite RPG support charactersTheMuff1nMon - Since I'm in a Fire Emblem mood - I have to shoutout the support and best Golden Deer - Marianne. Such a sweet character with a much deeper, darker complex backstory. And as I usually do - a shoutout for a Tales character and I'm going to go with Mint from Tales of Phantasia - the quintessential healer. She literally can't do damage but is always there to heal the party, provide debuffs or even freeze time to support the team. Awesome design, awesome character.
Blaze Knight - Gotta give my shout out to Narsha of Shining Force: Resurrection of the Dark Dragon for GBA and Reyson from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. The former was a character added to the GBA remake that is all about support, she has access to the Attack Spell which boosts your allies attacks, full party heal in Aura, and increased movement speeds in Step spell. The latter is a rare Heron who in his beast form can grant an additional turn to up to 4 party members, plus he flies for easily placement in battle.
Ngachacha @ngachacha - Huge shout out to Sharla from Xenoblade Chronicles who literally shoots her party members with healing rounds to restore health. But my personal favorite is definitely Aerith from Final Fantasy 7 Remake! Using Arcane Ward to cast spells twice is ridiculously OP!
Jennsen R’lyeh(Nick) @JennsenVT - Vivi from FFIX
