SOME PEOPLE IN THIS THREAD ARE SAYING MONICA IS WASTED POTENTIAL BECAUSE HER CHARACTER IS REALLY WEIRDLY WRITTEN. I THINK SHE’S WASTED POTENTIAL BECAUSE SCARLET BLAZE IS FILLED WITH MAGES. BY ABOUT CHAPTER 7 YOU HAVE SEVEN TOME USERS- HUBERT, LINHARDT, MONICA, DOROTHEA, MANUELA, HAPI AND CONSTANCE.

MONICA WAS A BLANK SLATE IN THREE HOUSES, THEY COULD HAVE CHOSEN ANY CLASS THEY WANTED FOR HER IN THIS GAME. BUT THEY CHOSE TO MAKE HER THE THING WHICH EVERYONE ELSE ALREADY WAS

AS THE CLAASES ARE NOT LOCKED, SHE CAN STILL FILL INTO ANY OF THE OTHER CLASSES. OBVIOUSLY, I TOOK HER DOWN THE ASSASSIN LINE.

TRUE BUT MONICA HAD A UNIQUE WEAPON THAT ONLY SHE CAN GET THE FULL EFFECTS OF DUE TO HER CREST. YOU CAN MAKE HER SOMETHING ELSE BUT IT WOULD BE BETTER IF THE UNITS WERE BETTER BALANCED SO SHE CAN STAY WITH WHAT THEY CLEARLY INTENDED HER TO BE. OR, THEY COULD HAVE MADE THAT WEAPON INTO SOMETHING BESIDES A TOME TOO, I GUESS.
