Mercy "executions" | Forums

[Goat_of_Vermund]

As Vakris said, I had this idea because this Hope team. In real warfare, people mostly captured each other for ransoms, kiliing someone was very counterproductive, you received nothing, and if you were captured, they had no reason to keep you alive. It is also killing and wasting a potentially useful combatant if your disagreement is just out from profession, and you might be allies in the future (for example, Ayu and the Orochi who had no name because nobody bothered and therefore used Orochi as a name, which in itself destroys any chance for the campaign to be taken seriosly, take this as the name please did spare Seijuro, which helped their war against Apollyon, or Holden decided to spare the just as lazily named Warden).

I wonder if there would be some heroes that would be antagonistic towards mercy, capturing or knocking out the enemy. You know the real killers.

Would it be fair to say that it would be:

Conqueror
Black Prior
Hitokiri

Am I missing someone?

Jormungandr is at least as much an ahole as the three you mentioned. I wanted to include Hitokiri among the examples: she swings the axe, stops it just inches from the neck, then kicks/knocks out the target cold.
I don't think everyone from a warrior order is the same, even if they have morales. For example, while Black Priors might be Apollyion's loyalists, in the new trailer, there is at least one on the "Hope team" when they place them on the field, and I consider my priors kinda decent persons too. Stone, the Conqueror from the campaign, is also a quite decent person. Hitokiris might look monsters, but they are still alive, which wouldn't be the case if all of them were, nobody keeps monsters around. The easiest example about it is placing Daubeny and your typical Warden beside each others, I don't think your hero's behaviour is decided by what weapons they are wielding. You may unlock all the respectful emotes, the swift and non-brutal executions, and you will look like someone who kills because you have to. You might unlock the silly ones, which communicates you don't take life too seriously, and don't think Honor is about showing off your badass skills. You also can unlock a full black outfit, a creepy Hitokiri mask, Yato's patricide as an execution, some mist emotes, edgewalk consistently, and you have your typical monster as Hitokiri.

This is quite an interesting an fun topic, I like to discuss this a bit more!

I picked those heroes as your average Conq, BP and Hito. Why?

-Conq's were criminals first and foremost. Although they worked their way up because of their skill.

-BP, like you said, were corrupted knights serving Apollyon.

- Hitokiri were executioners, the takers of life. It is speculated that they aren't fully human anymore.

I can def see why you pick Jorm to joing these ranks. He is a paragon for the end of the world as we know it.
