So, something that Sara probably remembers is my silly AU for FE7 involving myths and stuff, and after more than a decade, I kinda wanna look back and revise that stuff. Mostly because I can.
First thing first- Eriwod, the albino magic using ancestor of Eliwood's who looks identical to him. While his background is mostly unchanged- his parents died as a kid, and he ended up falling into the shadows until Durban's intervention, then he began as a mage and ended up part of Roland's army as his Disciple. Once the Scouring was over, he became Pherae's first Marquess.
The changes are the following- he is the first of the line named Eliwood (our Eliwood is the third), and is officially known in Pherae as the "First of The Name", while the rest of the world knows him as the "First of Pherae's Name". (Due to this, Eliwood is often said to be the "Third of The Name/Pherae's Name".) Originally, he died from being poisoned when his son was 13 and he was 45, however since I've created the Observers, he just... pulled an Elimine and became an Observer by the name of Harper. (Oddly enough, in a non-Mythverse version of Elibe, that's exactly what happened to Mieke the tactician, as she becomes the Observer Overseer of the Outrealms, Ada.)
That means he gets a nice blue outfit (since the Observers are based on the Velvet Attendants in the Persona Series), thought not navy blue- this blue works. Also he gets a spiffy hat, because it's part of the uniform. He watches over Elibe to make sure the descendants of the Scouring's heroes doesn't mess up anything... but it's Elibe. Of course there will be messes. Because of the nature of Observers, his weapon is jokingly known as the Ubertome- basically, all magic tomes that exists, that once exist and that shall exist can be found in it. Seeing that, in Mythverse, there was something known as "The Magic of Kings", I'd like to recreate it as the source of all magic, and the Observers are masters of the craft.
Only- the First of The Name was capable of using it even before becoming an Observer, and Pherae was build by practitioners of the Magic of Kings, known as Thaumaturgy. So in Mythverse, Pherae is known for their crazy-ass magic-users who does crazy feats you can't do in ANY Fire Emblem game. Which means that yes, as the Third of The Name, Eliwood CAN use magic, he just doesn't practice it very much. (Mythverse pretty much gives the middle finger to game mechanics.)
...I think that's it for the moment. If there's more thoughts on New!Eriwod, I'll edit!
