Introduction

I wanted to see if Action 52 has a manual... and it does! So I intend to revise Fire Breathers (Action 52)

Changes to be Made

Here's an excerpt from the Fire Breathers section: "Fire Breathers • It's the last of the dragon wars. You must kill the dragon riders in the midnight skies and bring victory to the kingdom."

So what we can gleam from this is that is there's some kind of war being fought by riding dragons, where player 1 and 2 must kill each other as the wars are nearing their end. Outside of adding this to the collapsible background section of a profile, it does affect a few portions of the page.

General Information

> Legacy

Would be listed as "Country-wide Legacy" for reasons below

> Influence

Would be listed as "Event Influence" due to the Fire Breathers bringing victory to their kingdom

> Species

Would be listed as "Dragon" as they're directly stated to be dragons

> Physiology

Would be listed as "Dragon Physiology" for the reason above

> Occupation

Would be listed as "Military Animal" or something of the like

> Ranking

Would be listed as "Unknown" as it's not clarified how high up in their kingdoms' military they are.

> Status

Would be listed as "Can be Alive or Deceased as the object of the game is to kill the other player, meaning at least one must die.

> Date of Death

Would be listed as "Last Dragon War" or something to that effect

> Alignment 

Would be listed as Unaligned for the Fire Breathers and Lawful Neutral for the riders who are merely participating in a war

> Protection Level/Threat Level

Would be listed as "Metropolitan Protector/Metropolitan threat" due to the Fire Breathers fighting and killing each other to determine the outcome of the kingdoms' 'dragon wars'

> Potential

Would be listed as Potential

  • Type(s) of Potential: Fixed Potential
  • Level of Potential: Fixed
  • Description: Shows no notable potential statements or feats.
  • Limitations: Nothing notable.
> Archetype

Maybe could be listed as Rival? I can't think of a better option as the dragons or their riders have no real defined character or motives, and the point of the game is that the Fire Breathers are meant to be equal matches to each other.

The rest should be pretty self explanatory

Codex Statistics

> Knowledge and Intelligence

Perfect as is, but the intelligence of their riders should be added, being "Unknown Intelligence" and at least "Journeyman Knowledge" as it's not exactly where in their military the riders rank.

Possible Issues

The manual is very poorly written so information from it may not be entirely accurate to the game. However I feel as though this is irrelevant as Action 52 is already such a poorly made game anyway. The manual's claims are also supported by in-game information such as the sprite for the Fire Breathers having some sort of saddle or person riding them and most of the game's maps having fort-like structures.

Conclusion

This is my first revision so let me know if anything needs to be formatted differently.

Action 52 was rushed so badly that I can just believe they wrote what the fuck ever and didn't have time to edit/proof-read so yeah it should be fine to use regardless of the poor writing of the manual.

All of this looks fine, the only thing I'd say for Archetype is Soldier/Rival (you can just add new archetypes that aren't on the page, the page is mainly for just examples).

You should be able to edit it let me know if there's any issues.

Oh, also just leave a wayback archive for the link you used for safety of that website ever randomly dying.

No problem. I always get a wayback link of any important scans. I'll get to editing shortly.

I was unable to get a wayback link, but was able to get an archive.ph link. However, the spam filter would not let me post the link.

Other than that, I've gotten all the content and most categories down. I'll be consulting Alice/LuckyEmile to see what she thinks as afaik she originally wrote the page.

Looks good.
