can’t wait to play octopath traveler 🎉🎉🎉

+ combined pic of the full group (i wanted to see what it’d look like because I intended the two path groups to be separate pics at first — please ignore the incorrect height differences LOL) :

Ophilia: Faith can be tainted, and loneliness can destroy the person you were. Mortality should be accepted, and we should live on to honor the deceased. The most important quality to endure loss, and pain, and to truly help yourself and those around you, is kindness. Be kind, be the light others need, and you will find that you’re not lonely anymore yourself

Cyrus: Knowledge can be dangerous, as it can put you, and others in great danger. It shows, though, the path towards a brighter future, so past mistakes are not repeated. This is why it has to be shared, like the beautiful treasure it is, and not stored who knows were. The future can be bright, you’ll make sure of it

Tressa: Life is an adventure, and you will be the hero in your own story. Make beautiful memories, meet people you will remember forever. And also, make yourself worth remembering. Don’t lt the powerful do what they want. Money is important, but not to the expense of other people’s happiness

Olberic: Why are you fighting? What’s the meaning of fighting? What’s your reason to keep standing? Vengeance won’t make you happy, do you know what will? Protecting the ones that helped you to get back on your feet. That’s the only reason you need to keep going

Primrose: Men are awful. To incredible limits. Revenge won’t make you happy, but do you really have another option? Does anything else make you feel alive? Your life is a tragedy, and you’re ready to act… until the curtain is down. Even if that ends up killing you. And maybe, when everything’s over, you’ll be able to start again

Alfyn: Is it morally right to help absolutely everyone in need? What’s the real meaning of being a good person and helping others? What kind of person do you want to be? Would those you love and admire be proud of you?

Therion: Trust is dangerous, and it’s blade has backstabbed you before. You keep your distance, but, if only it was that easy. You are scared of trusting again, of getting closer, and yet, you do. And in the end, it’s worth it

Like, hey, beast that can turn ppl to stone with their eyes? Sounds like a basilisk

But nope you get this eldritch horror

And then there’s this

For my own convenience, I’ve compiled some of the basic information about each region in Orsterra! These are coming from canon game facts, either taken from in-game quests/inquiries or from the JP Octopath website 

We get a lot of kingdom names here and since I can’t read Japanese, spellings vary / spoilers!
