Yusei: Blue Lions

He seems like he’d fit in so well in the class, personality wise, he’s quiet but he’s incredibly smart with a pretty good eye for strategy. He’s extremely kindhearted and loyal to the point where it’s unhealthy and damaging to himself, I feel like Yusei could easily get along with someone like Dimitri because of that.

Unit Class: Holy Knight

Other than the fact that I found it necessary for him to be some kind of mount because of the whole concept of 5ds revolving around the d-wheels, I thought that faith magic was a good fit for him. Going back to the signer dragon’s effects, Victim’s Sanctuary could translate into a once-per-battle spell where Yusei’s able to heal every ally on the map up a high amount but it takes a very heavy toll on him, something like taking a turn or two where he has to “recharge” and is unable to move or attack for two straight turns. It’s something of a last resort to turn to when the battle starts to look dire. He also has access to healing magic to keep his allies and those he holds dear safe. Although he’s someone who is mostly a magic user, he isn’t as good at it as Mercedes or Annette. I’d place him at around Sylvain’s level, better than average but not exceptional at it. At close range I feel like he’d be good with a lance or a bow, both keep him at a decent distance but close enough to the action where he can keep an eye on his allies.

Jack: Black Eagles

He’s arrogant and prideful but is extremely passionate about the people closest to him. Because of this, he’s extremely willing to fight for what he believes in, either with words or fists. If he were to meet Edelgard and she told him about her reasons for wanting to take down the church of seiros, he might be empathetic towards her cause and even might join in.

Unit Class: Great Knight or War Master

I couldn’t decide if I wanted to keep the theme of team 5ds all having their own mounts because, as funny and fitting as I found it, it’s pretty restrictive in the long run. Red Dragon Archfiend’s attack points being the highest out of the signer dragons and it’s effect destroying all monster that hadn’t attacked made me think of Jack being a class that is more reliant on physical attack instead of any sort of magic. I’m leaning more towards War Master because of their high crit rate, usually high strength growths and god awful resistance. Jack himself is pretty reckless but incredibly strong, whether that be physically or emotionally, also adding to Jack being one of those units that hit like an 18-wheeler on the odd occasion that he actually lands a hit. Also!! Like how Yusei has his own spell, I think giving Jack a combat art named after one of his dragon’s attack names would be more fitting. Absolute Powerforce (very metal name) being a better smash that has a base 50% crit rate that gets added to Jack’s own personal rate but it’s also a one- time-use art and it gets Dimitri’s crest side effect of doubling the weapon cost just to balance it out (slightly lmao).

Crow: Golden Deer

Crow is the group’s mama bird, he’s also laid back but is an extremely hard worker. He also has something that the rest of the members don’t have: common sense. I feel like he and Claude would get along really well, both with being laid back and on a deeper level considering they both have faced some kind of oppression in their pasts. I just feel like they’d be besties y’know. Plus crow already has experience with dealing with a rowdy group.

Unit Class: Wyvern Lord

Self-explanatory, he’s the bird guy with the motorcycle that has the wings attached, OF COURSE he’s in the air!! Crow is also very crafty and cunning when he needs to be, especially when it comes down to protecting his friends or getting them what they need. I can’t explain it, but I feel like Crow would be a sword user. Light enough for him to still be agile while also being good at landing hits. He’d have high dexterity but he’d struggle with landing hard hits but he’s fast and very good at denting enemies. I had no idea what Black-Winged Dragon’s effect was until today but I think that a combat art called “Shadow Squall Blast” that slightly boosts his attack and he gains around 50% of the damage that he lands on the enemy, it also lowers the strength and defense of enemies within a small range. I think that it’s somewhat fitting both for Crow’s personality and his monster’s effect.

Aki: Ashen Wolves

At first, I thought about placing Aki and Jack in the Black Eagles but I remembered that there was a fourth class and the more that I thought about it, I figured that Aki would be a very good fit in there. The whole idea that the Ashen Wolves house being for those shunned by people above reminded me of the Arcadia Movement and how Aki only wanted to be accepted by anyone, the people in abyss find solace in their solitude. Aki and Yuri might butt heads from time to time but I feel like she and Hapi could bond over their unwanted powers.

Originally, I thought that Valkyrie would be more fitting but Dark Flier stands out as a class that is extremely good at magic and with Aki’s abilities as a psychic duelist, she’d be extremely adept at using magic. She also uses Black Magic, much like Hapi but she does have some physical strength, using a lance to attack her enemies, it’s far enough to keep a safe distance from enemies but close enough to land a hit if necessary. Her special spell, “Black Rose Gale” is a spell with 2 uses, probably something that takes 50% of the hp of the enemies within a large range or an AOE attack where the enemies that are left with a poison effect. She’s the best and strongest magic user out of the four of them, her resistance is pretty good too but her physical strength and defense is okay at best.
