* ''Synopsis'': [[ForWantOfANail What if]] Ramza didn't join Gafgarion's mercenary troupe, and joined the Southern Sky, enemies of the Northern Sky and the Beoulves instead? Events happen at a vicious pace, some faster than others, that still results in the rising conspiracy of the Church and the hero taking up arms to stop it.

* ''Crossover with'': ''LightNovel/SagaOfTanyaTheEvil''

* ''Synopsis'': A story that starts off from the events in Chapter 2 in the main game story, Ramza is a seemingly broken down character letting Gafgarion walk all over him. He starts to befriend Agrias and her knights, and shows a few instances of his [[CrazyAwesome battle genius and vast-class mastery]] to prove [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass he's more than just a regular squire of a mercenary]]. Plot line follows through the main story, but is amplified by deep characterization, awesome fight scenes, and impressive story telling.

* ''Crossover with'': ''LightNovel/YoujoSenki''

* ''Comments'': Although a bit lengthy and only two parts long (possibly dead), this 3rd person fanfic ''really'' helps you get inside Delita's very thick head, and even explains how Delita ended up joining the Shrine Knights to begin with. They do a fairly decent job with the [[PurpleProse Purple Prose]], litter every paragraph with excellent detail, and it is so strikingly accurate and moving it almost seems like it came from the canon developers themselves; not to mention the Ramza/Delita/Ovelia love triangle is approached very nicely. This fic is not only very good for the shippers, but mostly very good for those in wonder as to how Delita did so much of what he, well, did--and ''justifies it while doing it''. One problem I had though was that, oddly enough, the fanfiction is filed under mature, and although that was done probably just for safety, it's seems much more for older teen, especially because the sex is only implied and there is only one close-call; but YMMV on that subject. Either way, I ''highly HIGHLY'' recommend this fanfiction, regardless if you cruise on this ship like I do, or not.

* ''Status'': Ongoing

* ''Status'': Dormant

** ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3250660/1/Heart_of_Gold Heart of Gold]]'' deals with a blossoming romance between Ramza and Agrias, set during the course of the game itself.
** ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3886115/1/Save_the_Queen Save The Queen]]'' begins after the end of the game, with Ramza witnessing Ovelia's murder (or in this case, near-murder) at Delita's hands and dealing with the idea of a queen out for revenge against Delita mucking up his retirement.
** ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4693901/1/Iceman Iceman]]'' is an alternate universe story where instead of Teta, it was Alma who got kidnapped... Leading to Delita being inarguably a WellIntentionedExtremist, Ramza being quite bitter and cynical, and the world as a whole being a little more Crapsack than in-game. It works.

* ''Comments'': The attention to [[GameplayAndStoryIntegration gameplay mechanics]] is only enhanced by how smoothly those elements are used. For hardcore fans of the original series, the fight scenes are [[ShownTheirWork stuffed with references to abilities and job classes]], but linked together so smoothly that they never get in the way. Ramza in particular is monstrous, showcasing just what it would be like to fight someone that has gamed the JobSystem and crossed the border from the JackOfAllStats to LightningBruiser. The characterization is to be commended, managing to insert a lot of personality in characters that didn't get many lines of dialogue in the original without making anything feel out of place.

* ''Comments'': This is, as far as I know, the first FinalFantasyTactics PeggySue fic, and it certainly shows the wounderful potential this genre has. Character-wise, Ramza's [[TimeTravelTenseTrouble past/future]] skills seem to have bled over with the dreams, and, in the most recent chapter, has begun undertaking early Holy Knight training after apparently showing himself to be something of a combat prodigy (a forgotten 20 levels of skill would do that). For those worried that the protagonists have a massive advantage, [[spoiler: [[WordOfGod According to the author]], Ajora also got flash-backed in a subconcious, but has a more understandable motivation than 'bwhahaha-I'm-evil'.]]

** This is another AlternateUniverse story where a simple change results in the game's canon events occurring in a completely different manner, but without the heavy drama and atmosphere of angst and hopelessness that [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4693901/1/Iceman Iceman]] had. Indeed, the story ends up going beyond the scope of where the game ended. The romance is subtle and almost nonexistent at first yet it develops so well that by the time our enterprising couple reaches their RelationshipUpgrade, it feels like they belonged together all along. Plus, BonusPoints for utilizing the less-common but apparently [[FanPreferredCouple popular]] Alma/Izlude pairing, as well as a CrackPairing that might not actually be as crazy as it sounds.
