Magnai the Older's Prospects of Marriage

Yenta? I'm not familiar with that word, care to enlighten me?


Also didn't we get a Hyur/Au Ra couple as well with the whole Ruby Princess tale? I have to find that Side-Quest that tells you about it. I like interracial romance so I don't mind and I want my Hyur WoL to get together with either Yugiri or Y'shtola.

I like how they toned Magnai down from his Genghis khan prototype for obvious reasons. He still does a frighteningly good impersonation at times.

Magnai quote:
“Ahh… war. To wield power, to make men kneel before you. There is no better feeling.”

Genghis khan quote:
“A man's greatest pleasure is to defeat his enemies, to drive them before him, to take from them that which they possessed, to see those whom they cherished in tears, to ride their horses, and to hold their wives and daughters in his arms.”

Magnai and Sadu confirmed?

Q21. Do you have plans to implement quests where Magnai will find his moon?
A21. I was thinking it was Sadu. On the internet, some were saying it may be Cirina, or it may be the Warrior of Light. There may be a quest for Magnai and Sadu. Only the Dawn Father knows.

It's a Yiddish word that means a gossip or a busybody. It's often mistranslated--as I did--as "matchmaker".

Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with interracial relationships. My Xaela WoL has had a thing for Thancred, Aymeric, Estinien, and of course Haurchfant. :( But it makes sense that they're not accepted on Hydaelyn, when the physical differences between races are so pronounced.

No. Let him stay lonely for eternity. "It's cute XD" is not a good reason to give a giant jerk like him a gf. And I'm sure the only reason he's getting this kind of positivity is because of his generic hot guy AuRa looks. Make him a Roe and suddenly interest drops.

I feel like, and I got nothing to back this up, just a feeling, that Sadu IS indeed Magnai's moon lady. and she knows it already, based on the Dotharl's belief in reincarnation.

maybe one of her past lives was the Moon for a different Sun.

anyhow, she knows already, but Magnai doesn't.

Well after thinking about it a bit, if he does not want my WoL then he and Sadu deserve each other. They would annoy each other all day long and if Sadu has a bad day she would just burn his throne down. Could be one interesting romance.
Cirina should not be punished with such a man, she deserves someone better..like Hien. (Yes I ship them.) At least they would treat each other as equals.

Ex-freaking-cuse you? Did you just insinuate that Roes aren't sexy?

*Magnai voice* KNOW YOUR PLACE!

According to one of the other Dotharl, Sadu's previous three past lives were all dudes.

OBJECTION

Based on general player base preference and how Roe are treated in EU/JP, this is where I get my reasoning. Roe are huggable handsome giants but not animu cute. Make him into a person your average cat girl would shirk at and very few care.

If only he could come back as a boy proper without it being creepy for the two. Sadu's "death" would be a good breaking point for Maggie's character.

While his looks might be the reason he's getting so much attention, I can say I was amused by the way that the big, arrogant jerk was given a soft spot like this. As terrible a person as he is, he's lonely and insecure (which probably contributes considerably to his arrogant jerkishness).

I, personally, support the Sadu pairing because she would NOT put up with his arrogance, not for a second. I'd like to see him see his moon in her and come to the realization that commanding her to be his bride in the name of the Dawn Father probably isn't going to cut it.

In short, Sadu is the bride he deserves, not the one he would want. XD
