My first and likely last foray into force users.
Let me know if you have questions.

Why will this be your last foray? Just not a fan of the playstyle? Did Silas accomplish the goals or milestones you set out for your character if any? Did his development surprise you? Anything you wish you had done better or more of?

Armourer seems like a fun spec. Did you enjoy playing him, I thought you did a great job of geeky human teenager

What was your favourite scene i) with Silas and ii) without Silas?

Byron: I'm just not typically a fan of thr force in itself, and the things in Starwars that interest me tend to be the things that aren't Jedi and Sith. Probably one of the reasons why I enjoyed The new Solo movie a lot more then the Last Jedi, even though it had some major flaws.
As for the other questions, I don't really tend to set my haracters goals, I try to let them do their thing and be as organic as I can about it. I think his deleopment was good, he turned out to be a little less geeky then I intended at first? Also a little more accepting abotu things in general. I don't know if I played his emotional strengths and weaknesses well, but then I tried to be a bit more fluid with them and not take him so much at face value.
Armorer is a fun spec! Thoguh it completely lacks parry and reflect, so I had to look at how I might make up for that. I did enjoy playing Silas, being as light hearted as he is, was a good change fo pace. As for Favorite scene? Hrm Hard to say. I liked quite a few of them, volleyball and the fishing trip. Also some of my chats with the npc's and goign into the mountains with Eir was a lot of fun. Zizzy suprising him with a kiss was also pretty entertaining.
On the other side? Hrm, I don't read a lot of threeads other's do. Which is somethign I should rememdy. I liked reading into the Camlen, Xho, Zizzy stuff though.

Silas was a neat take on things. I think he actually came out as a pretty darn good Jedi.
We did enough stuff that I'm not sure I have the usual sorts of questions. Instead... is it too much trouble to provide a list of characters-nicknames-Soulcalibur equivalents?

Zoooombieeeees!
(blame Hatoful for that one, it was his idea

)
I greatly enjoyed Silas, and yeah, he has the right attitude for being a pretty good jedi, I say.
His plans for the future will be to bring Sexy Back for the Jedi Order and give makeovers to all of them?

I'll get you your list a bit later, Hatoful. Just got to work and I have to actually remember where everything is.
Maybe not bring sexy back. But the way most jedi dress in brown with the robes and all. Well one it's boring, and two it separates them from the populace they serve. Which is okay and all when they are doing jedi business, but it's good to be able to be a bit more approachable too. Be able to let your hair down?

Are SIlas and O'vala destined to be derpy together forever?

Is that some sort of marriage proposal?
Well, Silas is probably always going to be a little bit derpy, it's just the way he is. Not sure if Valee will stay derpy though.

I personally envision them as the "best friends that are basically a married couple but never did."

Hm, what makes you say that about Valee?

Well, people can change.

valee might end up less derpy eventually.
Though she should know, Silas is running around kissing other girls.

I don't see any romantic tension between Silas and O'vala. Maybe some sexual, but they seem pretty platonic to me!
Oh Silas. He doesn't tell O'vala anything! (though she can't really complain...)

Since Hatoful asked, and others may be curious.
Ares - Abs - Nightmare
O'vala - Valee - Xianghua
Mir - Napz - Maxi
Zizzy - Meli short for Meliae - Cassandra
Zanja- Di - Taki
Eir - Pixie - Talim
Byron - Cap - Seigfried
Taime - Que - Kilik
Esla - Aina - Amy
Riko - Diz - N/A
Jes - Dimples - Seong Mina
Farissa- Ionee - Ivy
Chirala - Voldo
Murah - Sophitia
Jaric - Astaroth
Ogrus - Mitsurugi
Corvin - Yoshimitsu

Some masters and knights dont have nicknames basically because they didnt come up in game. They are floating around in Silas' head though.

Hello! Thank you for giving me ample opportunities for scenes! Was there anything Silas couldn't make?

Also, I see more Xianghua in O'vala but I guess Tira is very acrobatic.

Honestly it was the Hoop that sold me on Tira for O'vala
O'vala really came off as the type of girl that would try and use a bladed hula hooop as a weapon. Xianguha is more refined, so that's why my first instinct was for her for Esla. Though I suppose Amy could work.
As for makign things? As the rules work Silas can make most things. In my head he is bad with droids though. The making and maintenace of them. Though that's probably going to change.

I didn't even know they made Amy a character in Soul Calibur.

That's probably rather close, actually.

I think she was playable in 4?
She is also the next DLC Character in 6!
I suppose I coudl do Ovala as Xianghua, Esla as Amy, and Drascovina as Tira though.
This could work.

Amy was playable as an unlockable extra character in 3, a more full character in 4 iirc (hated 4). A lot of fan-theories around Viola in 5 actually being Amy.

Yeah, that's what it was! It's been a while since I played sould calibur.
I didn't really play much of 5.
But made some adjustments *nods*
