Oh, Carim? Easy. She hides it really well, and it was quite difficult to obtain this information. Listen carefully, because I can only say this once. Her age is----dfasdghasdhasdg*(!Q#%#34dg

[THIS MESSAGE HAS BEEN CENSORED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE SAINT CHURCH]

Vivio Testarossa · 2008-11-12, 14:36

Just want to verify:

Nove is number IX, right?

Tempy · 2008-11-12, 15:19

Err... yes. Nove is IX. Nove is Italian for nine. All the Numbers' names based on Italian numbers one through twelve.

DezoPenguin · 2008-11-21, 12:43

I have quite a collection here. Darned story ideas...

1. What is Carim's full, official title within the Belkan Saint Church?

2. Speaking of the Saint Church, do they have a holy symbol of some kind, equivalent to the cross in usuage?

3. In the StrikerS episodes where the forwards are tracking through the sewers after Vivio and the Numbers are following up, does Long Arch have any external means of tracking/surveilling/Area Searching progress through them, or was it pretty much a case of "everybody fan out and use your own eyes and magic"? (It's questions like this that point out to me that I clearly need to watch this series again!).

And...darn it, I forgot #4 (well, technically it was #1) and left my list at work. I'll ask it later. Thank you!

Edit: Got it! 4. Is Vivio's trademark caramel milk a hot drink (like hot cocoa) or a cold drink (like chocolate milk)?

1. I don't recall a proper title, but I remember her being addressed in canon as Knight Carym, which could be used on any knight of good standing. In fanon, we have Cardinal, Paladin and even Lord.

2. The Belka Kreuz, which is also seen in the center of the Belka magic circle.

3. They have sensors and stuff to detect things, it's enough to place dots on the screen, but I they still need eyes on the ground to verify sensor tracks.

4. I believe hot.

Excellent. Perfect, in fact!

Unfortunately not perfect. Ah, well, going to have to find a way to account for that. *sharpens pencil*

Cool; works well in Japanese-style hot coffee vending machines.

Thank you for the answers!

Re: Caramel milk - its not exactly Vivio's "trademark"; rather it's Nanoha's, and that its a Midoriya Cafe specialty. Just so you know.

Evil Rick · 2008-11-25, 12:17

I have a question

Zaphira and Arf, do they belong to some kind of race or tribe that has been mentionated any time on any of the 3 seasons?

Estavali · 2008-11-25, 12:53

No. We only know that they are wolves and that's it. Exact details on which species they belong to (considering that they are animals to begin with, though Zafira might be a bit hard to say, considering he is also a program), where they originated or could be found is pretty much left unsaid.

It is implied that those two belong to the same species, with Zafira's comment about Arf being the same beast as he is in A's, during the battle in the desert world. However, this could also be interpreted as their common status as wolf familiars.

Keroko · 2008-11-25, 13:08

Arf and Zafira are familiars, familiars are created using the corpses of animals (tough I believe they had to have recently died, but I'm not to sure about that).

So basically, if you want to know Arf and Zafira's 'race' the answer would be wolf.

Jimmy C · 2008-11-25, 13:14

They don't need to be dead. For example, Fate did it to save Arf.

Keroko · 2008-11-25, 13:23

So 'near death' counts too... would it be possible for a perfectly healthy creature to be turned into a familiar then?

Jimmy C · 2008-11-25, 13:53

I believe that's the usual procedure actually.

Keroko · 2008-11-25, 14:14

Hmm? I could have sworn that dead creatures were mentioned somewhere though...

Alavon · 2008-11-25, 21:57

Does anyone know if Nanoha have any nieces or nephews? In the first season, Nanoha's brother was a first-year college student. Did he marry Shinobu? Is Suzuka her sister-in-law?

In the MGLN world,No.There is no official information about it.
In the Triangle heart world,Yes.Kyoya would have children in some epilogues.

DezoPenguin · 2008-11-25, 22:41

Military question here:

Do we know if every member of the TSAB military is magically active? Obviously every combat member of the Air Force is, since they replace non-transport planes with flying mages, but do the Ground Forces "grunts" also consist of (presumably low-level, D-ranked or the like?) mages? Or is there a place for the "mundane" in the military (possibly equipped with weapons that do not require a magical operator even though magically-powered, since "normal" weapons are banned)?

I ask this largely because the discussion between Hayate and Genya Nakajima in StrikerS (during the flashback to the airport fire) suggested that being a mage was something that made Hayate special and different among the Ground Forces, not just the fact that she was crazily powerful.

Spoiler for Bad joke you can easily skip over and probably should.:

Evil Rick · 2008-11-25, 23:24

@Keroko and Estavali: Thanks for the answer

I tough that Zaphira and Arf were some kind of "Belkan Beasts" or something like that

Yes, there is. We know this because Genya Nakajima is supposedly a non-mage, and he's commanding the 108th.

Keroko · 2008-11-27, 00:23

Regius too, and I don't believe Amy, Shari, Alto, Lucino and Griffith had any magical powers either.
