I'll need to take some time to refresh my mind on Elibe. It's been a bit, as well as what's changed from the time that has past. That's on my end though. As to me posting in this thread, my question: I see that Class isn't a section on the profile, despite, I presume, an implicent relience on the classes. Is something Lordish off limits? I figured even if I could I'd need to ask about it and works things out.
I'm glad you asked this. Class has intentionally been left off the profile template as a requirement. This is because the most recent Fire Emblem games have introduced reclassing, making commitment to one style largely obsolete. Of course, most characters should have a weapon or style that they prefer. (None of that Olcadan business - mastering all weapons and magic is rather god-moddy.)
Additionally, with the release of FE: Awakening, players were able to control a tactician that could use swords AND magic. This ties in perfectly with the plot of Insurrection - magic is banned in Lycia and Etruria, so mages either have to deal with the stigma/get sneaky, or take up a conventional weapon to compensate.
This brings me to your specific question regarding the Lord-type classes. If you're asking to be a marquess of Lycia or the king of Bern, then obviously the answer is no. However, if you wish to play a character of lesser/former nobility, then I would approve that depending on how you present that character in your profile.
