@kyrylys said: Hi! I like this theory, could make sense. I’m sorry but i’m playing Dandelion and i’ll play Nameless but still i don’t know the characters. Is some reference in Nameless of Yuri being a knight? Don’t be this piece assigned to Jihae? I mean, he’s actually a knight (in Grass, he has the title) and ZEN… Yeah he’s Zen the knight. So could yuri be a pawn? Like i said i haven’t played Nameless yet, only Dandelion and Mystic Messenger but i’d like to discuss that poi
Hello! Thank you for taking an interest in this theory!
The reason why I didn’t put Jihae in the knight piece is because I was also taking into account their position as a character as a game character not just their character in the story. Jihae is a character from Dandelion, Cheritz’s first game, and in chess the first piece to make a move are the pawns. The reason why I’m separating Dandelion from Nameless and Mystic Messenger is because there is a specific order to play the latter games. In Dandelion there’s no order, you can start with anyone and you will still end up finding out what “the game” they keep talking about is. Much like in chess, you can start the game with any of the pawns.
In Nameless you have to start with either Yeonho or Lance’s route because the others are locked, once you finish with one of the two’s routes Yuri’s route would be available. You will then have to finish Yuri’s route before you can unlock Tei, and then you will have to finish Tei’s route to get to Red’s.
In Mystic Messenger, Jumin’s and 707′s routes are locked. Yes you can unlock them and start with them if you have enough hourglasses but Cheritz is already suggesting that you play them last by locking their routes up.
Aside from there being a specific order in playing Nameless and Mystic Messenger, the characters in Nameless are quite similar with Mystic Messenger.
You can somehow still fit the Dandelion characters with the match-ups above...
Jieun is like the baby of the bunch, Jiwoo feels out of place among the rest of the group, Jisoo has a feisty personality and constantly bickers with Jihae (and Zen even dressed up as Jisoo lol), Jihae is calm but keeps a storm inside, Jiyeon is the genki character with a dark past. But their similarities aren’t as strong as the ones from Nameless and Mystic Messenger especially with Zen & Yuri, Jumin & Tei, and 707 & Red.
Cheritz is capable of writing different kinds of characters seeing as how different Dandelion characters are from Nameless and Mystic Messenger. So why is it that Nameless and Mystic Messenger have so many characters that have personalities and appearance that are similar with each other? The reason for that, I believe,has something to do with their placement in the game, the Wizard’s chess game.
Even though I matched up Jaehee & Lance, their similarities aren’t as solid as the rest which is why I assigned them as different pieces. The characters that are most similar with each other are Zen & Yuri, Jumin & Tei, and 707 & Red which is why I assigned them to the pieces that come in twos, the knight, the bishop, and the rook.
Hope I answered your question!
