Was released in a recent book. You can see it on the Wikia.

What part of Wikia is it on, exactly? Having a bit of a difficult time finding any official character art other than what's already been released.

"I squirm, I struggle, ergo I am. Faced with death, I am finally, truly alive."
All I'm seeing right now are artworks from one of the 4Koma manga.
I wouldn't call them "official art." Someone editing the wikia put them up in place of the character portraits that were initially used. I think the only character pages with "official art" are the pages for the Avatar, the royal siblings, Felicia, and Oboro. Jakob, Felicia, and Gunter have cropped images from the cover arts, and everyone else uses the 4Koma guest art.
Birthright Chapter 13: Another Hope
Well, that opening cutscene with Camilla was rather heavy with the Fanservice... Especially since she seemed to go into Yandere mode right after it. That was weird on several levels. For the battle itself, this map had some really powerful Dragon Vein effects. Hans would've been scary in a straight fight if not for them, I'd imagine. As for the Knights at the north end of the map, I managed to set up a defensive position at the bridges and basically let the foes come to me. And after the fight, Ryoma has now officially joined the party, along with Scarlet the Wyvern Lord. I also got to upgrade my Dawn Armory and Rod Shop.
Reading through the last few pages... you know, if someone really doesn't like the newer games and hates that newbie fans are being brought in, you can take your hate and put it all on me, if you'd like. I'm a newbie. (I'm not a kid, I'm 37)... but I am new to these games having played Awakening and only one side of Fates so far (Conquest). I play on Casual (because I'm too soft-hearted to lose any of my units yet and I have yet to get as good as I would like to be at the strategy). And, you know what? Despite only having familiarity with these newer games, I AM ALREADY DOING FANART AND FAN FICTION. In other words, I'm one of those casual-player upstart stupid newbie fans who has yet to play any of the rest of the series. (And, frankly, despite my love of Super Smash Bros. I had zero interest in the series until a friend insisted that I borrow Awakening from her).
So, yes, I'm one of these scut-fans for you "Older games only! The new games ruin it!" fans to hate. Go ahead, I'll stand for your arrow. After all, I've already done it before in my core-fandom, Legend of Zelda. I'm a fandom-heretic there because despite having played and loved Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, I still have a greater personal like for Twilight Princess for my own highly subjective reasons. Never went along with the rest of the fandom - never will. Don't care.
That said... eh. Conquest - in playing it and seeing the impossible "No casualties in this battle, yay!" stuff despite the use of deadly, deadly spears, swords and arrows? My mind just traveled back to my favorite anime, Trigun, and how the pacifist gunslinger protagonist, Vash, manages to shoot people without killing them even though the kind of heat he's packing should mean that people would be bleeding out in short order from the flesh-wounds if the series had a modicum of realism.
I figure that my Avatar's army is just... non-fatally stabbing the hell out of people in the same way. PLOT-MAGIC!!!!
The enemies only WISH they were dead!
It's... yeah... one of those things I'll let slide in a video game that I wouldn't let slide in a novel.
In which I attempt to be a writer.It reminds me of the early DBZ dub's refusal to acknowledge death, like where Nappa vaporizes an entire city with an energy blast in about two seconds, yet the dub inserts him saying "too bad they all evacuated, huh?"
Or crashing through and destroying a building and then complaining that since it's a Sunday, nobody was in there.
Except in this case it isn't the dub trying to censor anything, it's just the original script trying to whitewash Nohr's invasion of Hoshido since your protagonist chose Nohr.
That's why I compare it to Tri Gun actually - it's not a dub thing, it's the main plot of the story, even in the manga, Trigun Maximum which has blood, gore guts and boobs galore and wouldn't be able to be censored enough if presented to a kid-audience. The main character has a Thou Shall Not Kill vow and does not kill his enemies, yet the guns he uses, if used in real life, would be expected to almost certainly kill people even if they were used for Only a Flesh Wound . Vash gets away with it because he is a super-human who can read trajectories in his head and is a secret genius who only acts like an idiot.
Fates: Conquest doesn't even really have the explanation of people "knowing exactly where to lodge a sword so as not to kill the victim" - It's just sort of "We only beat these people up. Plot-magic!"
Truth be told, this is a large part of why I enjoyed the game. I'm a longtime Trigun-obsessive and a borderline pacifist in real life (don't let my darkfic writing and skull-painting fool you, I'm actually really nice). I really liked that my avatar / Corrin was going out of their way to promote peace and to fight a war with minimal casualties. However, realism - video games are not and I kind of accepted that aspect as "very unrealistic gaming plot-magic."
In which I attempt to be a writer.To be fair, it's actually very hard to kill someone with a blade unless you hit a vital spot; even multiple shallow stab wounds could possibly be non-fatal if medical attention is given quick enough. And in a setting where healing magic exists, that would just make it even harder.
Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!Actually they do kill Hoshidans before and during the war. Just not all the time.
It started with the Nohrian residing Ice Tribe then the Nohrian territory Cheve But Cheve get their due deaths regardless along with Blood Knight Reina and Orochi.

Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.Karx: Sounds to me like you might be cut out to be a speedrunner.
So, Friday's run succeeded, giving me my tenth successful deathless, resetless, Lunatic+ run. And what a run it was! In honour of her birthday, we sent newcomer Susan into the meat grinder. Not only did she put up a good fight, but she finished up on the very first attempt! Events of note are:
- In C2, there's so many Dual Strikes involved that the team totally crushed the first wave of enemies.
- In C3, Susan dodges something like four consecutive attacks.
- In C19, my capture card's software video crashed—but just the video. The audio continued to function without issue, so... I have no idea what that was about.
- In C23, Validar is determined to sandbag, bringing the Hawkeye-Vengeance combo that typically gives me pause. Susan was having none of that shit and just streamrolled him as if it was nothing.
- This run P Bed by about 11 minutes, giving me a sub-9:30 run.

FE: New Mystery Only Feet 7PM PT Sun, Mon, Fri; Umamusume Haru Arima 7PM PT Wed, Thurs: http://www.twitch.tv/kuroitsubasatenshiI've seen a pretty nifty mod with playable human Lilith as a maid.
So many cool mods out there, but I need "custom firmware" to work them. ;_;
At the very least, I'd like to have them playable bosses. Is there a way for someone to say, put Garon on their castle team, and then I could recruit him through there and that won't damage my game/3DS or whatever?
