Oops, I got the dragon info totally wrong mostly because I completely forgot about manaketes. I AM SORRY
Anyway, in regards to weapons, each class has their own weapons that they can use. So for example, Tacticians use swords and tomes, Taguels use beaststones, Cavaliers use swords or spears, etc. Since you made your character a Myrmidon, it's gonna be a good idea to look that up on the wiki. Generally Myrmidons use swords, but like the form says, you can't have anything above C rank (which is like a scale from E to A, E being a really weak weapon and A being 1HKO galore). I think you can look up a list of swords, actually, so just be careful about the ranking and I think last time we chose not to allow Killing Edges.

Oh my gosh Saria that is fascinating! Thank you so much for all your help, I might make a guy character who is a manakete later as I am now obsessed with them. I'll look up more of the lore and look through a list of swords, I tend to be a little bad at doing research so I really, really appreciate all your guys' help and will have to get my boyfriend to buy me this game later, it sounds incredibly cool :)

So why are killing edges banned? Should she have an Erika's Blade or an Eliwood's Blade? Which one would fit her story better? Also what did you think about the rest of my form? :)

Um, killing edges (and killer weapons in general) have super high critical rates, and with a good character that can mean every hit can do up to triple damage. It was decided the likes of those should be banned, since that makes them quite powerful than most other weapons of their rank. Likewise, the spell Mire is banned because of the distance element - in game if you can grab it early, it's almost game breaking as you can kill enemy generals from across the map.
As for the named weapons (as I call them, because they all supposed belong to named characters of other games - in this case, Lord Eliwood of Pherae and Princess Erika of Renais), it was decided that ones like swords don't make sense to use, as the apostrophe denotes ownership, and you can't end up with the sword of a lord/hero/etc who lives in another timeline/world/continent. Spells on the other hand (such as Katarina's Bolt) would be possible as they could be copies of a spell the character created, and thus circulated but still rare, meaning the spells are limited. A common mage won't have them, but someone with connections might.

As for the rest of the form, we're working on getting you feedback! It might take a little while because this com*uter is quite literally the s*awn of the devil, and as you can see, I can't ty*e certain letters on it...

Then she'll probably just have a steel sword, maybe just a nice one. That makes sense on the killer's edge. It would be cool though if her parent's could have had the actual Erika's blade entrusted to them by the Exalt for their service and were planning to give it to her someday so she could find it if she ever returned to her old home, but that's completely up to you guys.
That made me smile that you can't hit the letter 'p' on your computer, my computer is missing the key for the letter 'z' but it works without it, it just makes you slow down trying to push the little thingy the key was placed on. No rush, just excited :)

Waiting on the final say, and soon we'll get your stuff to ya.
In other news, Aegis's form is on the thread now. I made her on a whim, but I think she'll do fine.

I really like her. If you guys find my girl's backstory suitable I think Aegis should be the one to see a poster of her wanted as a bandit, I kind of love drama. Reading her form gave me some ideas of what I failed to put in my own. Kaiko's education is lacking a bit, the bandit's never really saw a reason to make sure she was well-learned and her manners are a bit rusty. I'll edit my form on a few things after I see what you guys think of it.

Haha, Aegis reminds me of Kjelle with Lon'qu hair.

Well I've never roleplayed a gay romance before but I was thinking about making a manakete male to enter into the roleplay a little later.
