[[folder: The Lords]]

!!Chrom (Krom)
[[quoteright:264:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/264px-Krom_Artwork_5306.jpg]]
The first and foremost main character of the game, Chrom is the Prince of the Halidom of Ylisse is and a descendant of the Holy King who defeated the Fell Dragon Grima. Although royalty, he serves as Captain of the Shepherds, a local vigilante force, to keep his country at peace, and when suspicious activity is happening in the enemy nation of Plegia, he decides to investigate. He wields his nation's treasured sword, the Binding Blade "[[CoolSword Falchion]]". He may seem unsociable at first glance, but bursts into enthusiasm whenever anything interesting happens. Breaks the most things during army practice. His birthday is May 27th.

->'''Class:''' Lord
->'''Voiced by:''' TomokazuSugita (Japanese), MatthewMercer (English)
----
* AccidentalPervert: In their B support, Chrom walks in on a female Avatar naked.
* ActionDad: To [[spoiler:Lucina]]. Also possibly to Male Morgan, Cynthia, Brady, Kjelle and Inigo.
* {{Badass}}: Being a ''FireEmblem'' Lord, this was pretty much a given:
** BadassNormal
** BadassBaritone: He has a surprisingly deep voice for his build.
** BadassCape
** BadassFamily: If you marry the right characters, he gets to be ThePatriarch of one of the biggest [[BadassFamily Badass Families]] in video game history.
** BadassGrandpa: If the Avatar marries any of his children, he becomes Morgan's grandfather. [[spoiler:Although due to TimeTravel, he's still very young]].
** BadassInCharge
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with Sumia, Maribelle, Sully, Olivia, or Female Avatar. And the boost he gets is pretty impressive.
* BigBrotherMentor: To Lissa.
* BirthmarkOfDestiny: The Mark of Naga on his shoulder.
* CoolSword: He wields the [[FireEmblemAkaneia Falchion]]
** Plus BladeOnAStick after promotion.
* FutureMeScaresMe: PlayedForLaughs if he's Cynthia's father, and she reveals Future Chrom's pet name for her was "pega-pony-princess".
* TheHero
* [[spoiler:TheHeroDies]]: SpoilerOpening
** [[spoiler:FakingTheDead: [[SuperDickery How things work out in the main game.]]]] "I'm changing fate!"
* [[spoiler:HeroicBSOD]]: [[spoiler:Suffers one in the aftermath of Emmeryn's death. It takes the Avatar and all the other characters' words of encouragement to snap him out of it.]]
* HeroicLineage
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Though he catches on quick and corrects his mistake, when [[spoiler: Lucina]] asks to train with him he tells her it would be pointless as there's nothing he could possibly teach her. [[spoiler: The realization being that he's dead in her future, so she's not so much really asking to train but to spend time with her father again with what little common ground they have.]]
* MrFanservice: In Japan most female players pair their female Avatar with him, and looks like female Western gamers plan to do the same. That's gotta mean something. [[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/fe/kakusei_bk/kekka/index.html He also took first place in the male character poll]] (link contains spoilers). Oh, and naturally he gets a swimsuit scene in the DLC.
* TheNicknamer
* OlderAndWiser [=/=] OlderThanTheyLook: Chrom most notably looks more like an adult than a teenager. Time will tell if he's the first ''Emblem'' lord who's all grown up since Sigurd or whether it's just down to the art style.
* OneManArmy: Another given for ''FireEmblem'' Lords.
* RoyalRapier
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething
* ScrewDestiny: His first sample clip on the official site is him saying "I'm changing fate". Contrast [[YouCantFightFate Validar's line]].
* SleevesAreForWimps: He appears to wear them after he promotes, though.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: [[ConanTheBarbarian Crom]], Krom, and Chrome are all valid interpretations of the male lead's name.
** And in the end, it turned out the official answer was "none of the above", as Nintendo of America romanized it as "Chrom".
* WarriorPrince
* WeaponTwirling: Part of his VictoryPose.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair

!!Avatar (My Unit) (default: Robin [Rufure])
[[quoteright:303:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/FE_A_Avatar_9133.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:303:Two examples of the possible looks the Avatar can get, one for each gender.]]
Another main hero of the game, whose identity and name is crafted by you - the player. You collapsed one day in the middle of nowhere for no apparent reason. Although you have no memories to speak of, it's clear that you're an expert tactician. You're extremely charismatic and can bond with almost everybody. The army's greatest enigma. [[spoiler:You are Validar's child and a vessel required for the resurrection of the Fell Dragon. Your mother was a member of the Grimleal, but she betrayed the cult and took you, when you were an infant, away to safety. Grima's arrival from the future caused you to lose your memory when you first met Chrom.]]

->'''Class:''' Tactician
->'''Male voiced by:''' YoshimasaHosoya or TohruOokawa (Japanese), DavidVincent, Brandon Karrer, or ChristopherCoreySmith (English)
->'''Female voiced by:''' MiyukiSawashiro (Japanese), MichelleRuff or WendeeLee (English)
----
* AGodIAmNot: [[spoiler:According to Validar near the end of the game, you could have been a god but you chose to be with your companions instead.]]
* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler:Your biological father conceived you specifically to become the host of a EldritchAbomination. Fortunately, your biological mother betrayed the cult and smuggled both of you out the country.]]
* AccidentalPervert: Inverted in a Female Avatar's A support with Chrom, where she walks in on a naked Chrom.
** She also does it to Gaius and Say'ri.
* TheAce: His/her ability to master a huge number of classes in the game, support with every character and be the TheStrategist of the the force simultaneously lands the Avatar quite firmly in this trope.
* ActionGirl: When she's a girl, [[CaptainObvious obviously]].
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: There are three different builds per gender to choose from: adult, late teen... and this. Which leads to {{Shotacon}} and {{Lolicon}} when the supports come into play... However, the localization does not have any "deep" or "childish" voices to choose from, which makes it closer to a young teen, like Ricken.
* AmnesiacHero: Lissa lampshades this to which Fredrick calls BS on the whole EasyAmnesia.
* [[spoiler:AntiChrist: The Avatar is the ChosenOne that will become the vessel for Grima, this universe's equivalent of Satan in the BadFuture. Which leads to...]]
** [[spoiler:AntiAntiChrist]]
* [[spoiler:ApocalypseMaiden: The world goes to hell if Avatar gets possessed by Grima. In the BadFuture, the possession is successful. In the present, they manage to successfully avert this fate for the Avatar. Alas, Grima has a backup plan...]]
* AudienceSurrogate: ''Obviously''.
* {{Badass}}: Pretty much goes without speaking.
** BadassAbnormal: Being able to change into any class not restricted by gender or exclusivity.
** BadassBookWorm[=/=]GeniusBruiser: You are the vigilante group's tactician.
** BadassLongcoat: wears a black coat/duster with a hood.
** BadassPrincess: If a Female Avatar marries Chrom.
** BadassBystander: The prologue sees your amnesiac avatar as anything but helpless. Being able to fight with swords and sorcery along with knowledge of battlefield tactics and awareness.
** BadassLonghair: Some of the hair options in character creation.
* BashBrothers: A Male Avatar and Chrom are very much this.
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any playable unit of the opposite sex.
* {{Bishonen}}: Very definitely an option for a Male Avatar.
* BornWinner: [[spoiler:As revealed by Validar, the Avatar was bred to become the vessel for Grima.]]
* CanonWelding: [[spoiler: In the Lyn DLC, Lyn speculates that that Mark/The Tactician from [[FireEmblemElibe Blazing Sword]] and the Avatar are indeed one and the same. The Avatar can confirm or deny her.]]
* CharacterCustomization
* ChickMagnet[=/=]DudeMagnet: The Avatar is confirmed to be able to hook up with ANY of the playable characters, provided they're of the opposite gender.
* CrazyPrepared: In Chapter 23, [[spoiler: it's revealed that the Avatar knew Basilio was alive and was using him as a secret agent to perform tasks that the Avatar couldn't do without being noticed, due to Validar's spies being everywhere. This includes ''replacing the stones on the Fire Emblem with fakes'', just in case Validar actually managed to get hold of it.]]
* [[spoiler:DemonicPossession: In the SpoilerOpening.]]
* DeadpanSnarker: He/she has his/her moments.
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:While [[TheChosenOne Chrom]] only has the ability to seal away the [[EldritchAbomination Fell Dragon Grima]] for a thousand years, Grima will still come back a millennium later because [[OnlyICanKillHim only Grima can kill himself]]. You and Grima however are both [[{{Synchronization}} one in the same with both of your souls being connected to one another]]. This [[LoopholeAbuse loophole]] allows you to kill the otherwise [[NoManOfWomanBorn unkillable]] Grima at [[HeroicSacrifice the cost of]] [[DeaderThanDead you basically being erased from existence!]]]]
* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: Male Avatar can hook up with Tiki, who's a PersonOfMassDestruction that her mother Naga had to put her into DeepSleep to prevent her from degenerating into madness like all the other dragons. Her power is so tremendous that if she goes wild, the world will be destroyed.
** It's also possible to pair them up with the [=SpotPass=] characters, including [[spoiler: Gangrel and ''Walhart.'']]
** Considering how Robin [[spoiler: is the avatar of Grima, he/she arguably is this towards any of his/her potential pairings.]]
* [[spoiler:DisneyDeath: At the end of the game.]]
* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire
** BlowYouAway
** ShockAndAwe: Seems to prefer this, given that s/he starts with a Thunder tome and uses them in cutscenes.
* EliteTweak: The Avatar isn't a guaranteed GameBreaker like in the previous game, as the [[TheStrategist Tactician]] class starts out with stats and growth rates slightly weaker than the [[HeroUnit Lord]] class. However, branching into different classes will allow you to learn their skills and equip them when you class change back. This can eventually lead to the Avatar becoming one of the most powerful units in the army.
* [[spoiler:[[EnemyWithout Hero Without]]: Grima's]]
* FeaturelessProtagonist: The Game let's you choose your name, face, build, gender, birthday, and voice. The cut-scenes show your avatar hooded.
* FutureMeScaresMe: Not surprising considering he/she [[spoiler: becomes an EldritchAbomination]]
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration[=/=]LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In the Prologue chapter, the Avatar states that they can see things like the enemies strengths, weaknesses and weapons. Just like the player can.
* HelloInsertNameHere
** GenderBlenderName: In the English version at least, the default appears to be Robin, a name that could be male or female.
* GrandTheftMe: In an AlternateTimeline, Grima possesses your body and creates a BadFuture.
* GuileHero: The Avatar is the only person in the game that has support conversations with every recruitable character in the game.
* HeroicMime: Strangely enough, you're given the ''option'' to make them one (in the Japanese version at least). Other players' Avatars recruited from Streetpass are also this by default, at least during dialogue, (They do get VoiceGrunting in combat as usual) presumably so they don't overshadow the "main" Avatar in story importance.
* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice:]] [[spoiler:It's possible for the Avatar to pull one of these in the endgame, so as to ensure that Grima is permanently killed. The Avatar isn't actually dead though and seems to return fairly soon.]]
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Male Avatar and Chrom with A support.
* InstantExpert: Avatar has access to nearly all classes and skills.
* InTheHood: In some the CG cut scenes, no doubt due to the number of variations in his/her appearance presenting a logistical nightmare otherwise. In others, like what looks like the first one, things are shown from his/her perspective to avoid looking at him/her at all.
* IOweYouMyLife: The Avatar very much has this towards Chrom. A Male Avatar expresses it very well in their A support.
-->'''Male Avatar''': I'll save you like you saved me. So, let me help you. I'll bet on those bonds you made.
* [[spoiler:[[HydePlaysJekyll Jekyll Plays Hyde]]: In the main game.]]
* LauncherOfAThousandShips: '''In-universe!''' He/she can marry ''anyone.'' (Except Morgan, of course.)
** HoYay[=/=]LesYay: The Avatar can support everyone of the same gender as well, and some of them don't change for the Avatar's gender... [=Tharja/FemAvatar=] stands out especially.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaEu4kAWhQQ "Id (Serenity)"]], which gets many variations, most notably a TriumphantReprise [[spoiler: as the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4QTEzsCRIE Final Chapter theme.]]]]
* LethalChef[=/=]SupremeChef: Avatar varies between the two wildly. In particular, the non-human members of the army seem to think s/he's the best chef ever.
* MagicKnight: Is able to wield [[CoolSword swords]] and magic.
** Through reclassing however, the Avatar can access any weapon type. However, they may or may not be a Magic Knight depending on what you reclass into.
* MarkOfTheBeast: On the back of his/her hand. [[spoiler: Yes, it is related to [[BiggerBad Grima]].]]
* ManchurianAgent: [[spoiler:In the BadFuture timeline. Luckily you came CrazyPrepared in your timeline.]]
* MeaningfulName: In addition to simply referring to an entity that represents the player, in Hindu mythology, an Avatar is a terrenal manifestation of a deity. [[spoiler:In the BadFuture, your body gets [[GrandTheftMe hijacked]] and becomes the Avatar of the Fell Dragon Grima.]]
* MissionControl: His/her role within the army. He/she is, however, also a certified {{Badass}} in combat.
* NoodleIncident: In a support conversation with Gaius, he/she tells him an embarrassing secret involving a cow.
* OneManArmy: Can potentially become this if you got the time. The Avatar has to the ability the class change into any non-exclusive class and learn their skills. With the right skill setups, you can [[OneHitKill one-shot]] enemies and dodge enemies like a [[BulletTime bullet timer]].
* ShipperOnDeck: Since the Avatar determines who gets placed where, paired up, etc. he/she ultimately decides who ends up with who.
* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Or at least an {{Expy}} of Chess, in their supports with Virion. Though given they're the army's strategist it's pretty understandable.
* StatusBuff: The Avatar learns two of these in the Tactician and Grandmaster classes.
* {{Superdickery}}: The opening Prelude sees you stabbing Chrom with a bolt of lighting followed by an EvilLaugh.
* SupportingProtagonist: The story is seen from his/her perspective and its GameOver if he/she ever goes down.
* TheStrategist: Both his/her starting class and role within the army. S/he's also a tactician though.
* ThisLoserIsYou: Completely inverted. Not only does the Avatar have a special class and is the first true MagicKnight since Judgral, but he/she can also get paired with any playable character of the opposite gender (including [[TheHero Chrom]] and Sumia), and even have kids. Way to go, stud!
* [[spoiler:TimeTravelRomance: S/He's the only first generation character that can marry characters from the future]].
* TomatoInTheMirror
* [[spoiler:TookALevelInBadass: And how!]]
* WarriorTherapist: Some of the support conversations you have with your team members.
* WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou: Like all the Lords, it's GameOver if you ever get taken out.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Any Color Hair]]: There are 20 different possible hair colors for the character. Of course, unrealistic colors are the most common.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Female Avatar as a Grandmaster appears to have some.

!!"Marth" [[spoiler: Lucina]]
[[quoteright:290:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/290px-MaskedMarth_6383.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:290:[[hottip:Click to see Marth without the mask.:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Lucina_290_5192.jpg]]]]
A masked swordsman who claims to be the Hero-King of ages long past. He wields another Falchion, a blade once thought unique, and appears during Chrom's hour of need. Whether he's truly the Hero-King or simply an impersonator is a mystery. [[spoiler: ''[[SamusIsAGirl She]]'' is actually [[LukeYouAreMyFather Chrom's daughter]] from the future. A kind princess with a strong sense of justice, who believes that saving the world is her mission. In her era, the world was devastated by the reawakened Grima and, by Naga's guidance, she travelled to the past to stop Grima. She loves her father dearly and is always worrying over him. Has the weirdest sense of humor.]]

->'''Class:''' Lord
->'''Voiced by:''' YuuKobayashi (Japanese), [[spoiler:LauraBailey]] (English)
----
* [[spoiler: ActionGirl]]
* AntiHero: Type 3. [[spoiler: Is actually a type 2 once she stops impersonating Marth]]
* {{Badass}}
** [[spoiler: BadassAdorable: Lucina brings this trope to a whole new level in a series that was already packed with this particular type of badass. In the battlefield she's tough as they come - she easily enters the Top 5 of most badass female characters ''in the entire series''. Outside of it, though, she totally gets the "D'AAAW!" effect.]]
** BadassCape
** [[spoiler: BadassLongHair]]
** [[spoiler: BadassPrincess]]
** [[spoiler: FutureBadass: Who would have thought that adorable 2-year-old baby girl would grow into such a tough-as-nails badass?]]
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with [[spoiler:Male Avatar and any male second generation character]].
* [[spoiler: {{Bifauxnen}}: And a surprising reveal at that.]]
* [[spoiler: BirthmarkOfDestiny: The Mark of Naga on her left eye.]]
* CharClone
* [[spoiler: CompressedHair]]
* [[spoiler: CoolBigSis: To her possible siblings.]]
* CoolSword: Wields the [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAkaneia Falchion]] as well, initially thought to be a separate sword to the one Chrom uses -- which stumps everyone, since it's supposed to be one of a kind. [[spoiler:It really is, as "Marth's" Falchion is actually the same sword, brought back from the future.]]
** [[spoiler:Plus BladeOnAStick after promotion.]]
* CrossdressingVoices: [[spoiler:Subverted.]]
* [[spoiler: CryCute: A teary reunion with her father.]]
* FirstEpisodeSpoiler: We find out surprisingly early (Chapter 6) that... [[spoiler: [[SamusIsAGirl "He" is actually a "she"]] and ''she'' is from the future.]] But the biggest reveal doesn't come until much later...
* [[spoiler: ImpossiblyTackyClothes: The dresses she keeps picking out for her mother in her supports -although off screen are implied to be this.]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: Goes into one when the main game catches up with the interlude.]]
* HiddenDepths: [[spoiler: Surprisingly, she is somewhat more bumbling than your normal ActionGirl, if supports are anything to go with.]]
* [[spoiler: KidFromTheFuture]]
* [[spoiler: KillTheOnesYouLove: At one point, she sees herself forced to try this with the Avatar in order to avoid [[BiggerBad Grima]]'s return. If it's a Male Avatar who is her husband, or a Female Avatar who is her mother, the scene gets [[TearJerker REALLY intense]].]]
* [[spoiler: KissingCousins: She can marry Owain, who is Lissa's son. This is narrowly averted in the English version where they are listed as Companions instead of Husband and Wife]].
* [[spoiler: LadyOfWar]]
* [[spoiler: LukeYouAreMyFather]]
* MindScrew: [[spoiler: Being a time traveler and, on top of that, in a time when she's been born already (although still a baby), we get some of this in her support conversations with her possible mothers.]]
* MundaneUtility: [[spoiler:She doesn't do it herself, but she gets REALLY mad during her B support with her sibling when she catches him/her using the Falchion ''[[MundaneMadeAwesome to cut fruit]]''!]]
* MysteriousProtector
* [[spoiler:NotSoAboveItAll: Her C support with her possible siblings has her scolding him/her for making fuss over a bug, but when she sees the bug herself, she screams like a girl.]]
* OneManArmy: [[spoiler:Well... "One-WOMAN army", actually...]] One of the most powerful characters in the entire game.
* TheOtherDarrin: "Marth" is YuuKobayashi instead of HikaruMidorikawa. [[spoiler: This is your first clue to her true identity, therefore subverting it.]]
* [[spoiler: RapunzelHair: Her hair is actually a little bit ''more'' than waist-long, which makes her CompressedHair ''really'' impressive.]]
** [[spoiler: [[AllThereInTheManual Artbook]] [[WordOfGod of God]] explains this. The top layers of her hair are cut to neck length while the rest is longer and tucked into the back of her shirt until TheReveal.]]
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: [[spoiler:Just not the royal she claims to be at first...]]
* [[spoiler: SamusIsAGirl]]
* [[spoiler:SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong]]
* [[spoiler:SheIsAllGrownUp: Played backwards. The game seems to imply that some male characters, like Basilio, are REALLY looking forward for present-day-Lucina to hit 18 now that they see the future-Lucina is quite a looker. [[MayDecemberRomance How that would work out]]... [[{{Squick}} is another matter entirely]].]]
* ShroudedInMyth
* {{Superdickery}}: Marth and Chrom fight early on in the Ferox arena as part of a CombatByChampion contest. Naturally, early trailers played this up to make Marth look like an antagonist.
* [[spoiler:SweetPollyOliver]]: [[spoiler: Played with, notably why [[CannotTalkToWomen Lon'qu]] who otherwise never lost a single fight for Basilio lost so easily.]]
* [[spoiler: TimeTravelRomance: She can get married with Male Avatar.]]
* WakeUpCallBoss: On the higher difficulties, Marth's stats when fought in Chapter 4 are considerably higher than any prior boss, and they're armed with a very strong weapon. Now is about the point where you need to make use of the Pair Up system, or be prepared for this guy to destroy you.
* WalkingSpoiler: Why has this character most of his tropes covered by spoiler tags? [[spoiler:[[FirstEpisodeSpoiler Because behind the mask, "he" is Chrom's daughter from the future!]]]]
* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Giant Bugs?]]
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair

[[folder: First Generation Characters]]

!!Lissa (Liz)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Liz_891.jpg]]
Chrom's sister and the Princess of the Halidom of Ylisse. She is a Shepherd and a staff-wielding Cleric. Her commoner-like mannerisms, while seemingly out of place for royalty, make her easily approachable and likable. Although she appears to be naive of worldly goings-ons and sometimes acts like a spoiled princess, she is kind deep inside. The girl most likely to snort. Her birthday is March 6th.

->'''Class:''' Cleric
->'''Voiced by:''' KanaAsumi (Japanese), KateHiggins (English)
----
* ActionGirl: After promoting.
* AnimeHair
* {{Badass}}: Again, after promoting.
** BadassAdorable
** BadassPrincess
* BattleBallgown
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* [[BigBrotherWorship Big Sister Worship]]: She idolizes Emmeryn and desires to be a ProperLady just like her.
* BirthmarkOfDestiny: The Mark of Naga... supposedly. [[spoiler:It turns out she doesn't have one, and it was implied that she feared that she's a bastard child until her son was born with the mark.]]
* BodyguardCrush: If paired with Lon'qu or Frederick. In Frederick's supports, she mentions that he was her first crush.
* GenkiGirl
* LethalChef: Her "rainbow" filling pie caused Kellam to faint.
* MagikarpPower: If she promotes to Sage she can become one of the most powerful magic users in the entire game. Sure, it doesn't look as unique as the [[MemeticMutation NUNSWITHAXES]] thing, but still she kicks some ass.
* ManicPixieDreamGirl: Her supports with Frederick pretty much revolve around butting into his routine and then getting him to loosen up a bit.
* NaiveNewcomer
* NiceHat: ''Buttons.''
* HeroicLineage
* ThePrankster: Gets into pranking with Male Avatar in their supports.
* RomanticTwoGirlFriendship: With Maribelle.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething
* SpoiledSweet
* {{Tomboy}}
* WhiteMagicianGirl
** AnAxeToGrind: Unbelieveably, she can be an ''axe-wielder'' if you promote her to War Cleric!
*** CombatMedic
*** GirlWithPsychoWeapon
*** MagicKnight
*** MusclesAreMeaningless: The only explanation as to HOW she's able to even carry an axe, given her figure. However her strength growth is shown to be rather low.
** RedMage: If you promote her to Sage, she can use tomes along with staves instead.
* UptownGirl: If paired with Donnel.

!!Frederick
[[quoteright:228:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Frederick_6978.jpg]]
A knight serving the Halidom of Ylisse. He supports Chrom as his deputy in the Shepherds and is very serious about his duty. Calm and collected, Frederick prefers guiding others, but he demands the utmost effort in even trivial matters, and often ends up making things more complicated. The fondest of starting campfires. His birthday is August 26.

->'''Class:''' Great Knight
->'''Voiced by:''' DaisukeOno (Japanese), KyleHebert (English)
----
* AffectionateNickname: Chrom and Lissa deem him "Frederick the Wary". The male Avatar also calls him "Fredericson" and the female one "Freddy-Bear" in their supports.
* {{Badass}}: One of the biggest in the game, and that's saying something:
** BadassInANiceSuit: Wears a suit underneath his armor. WordOfGod said his suit was based off [[BattleButler a butler's]]. It was lampshaded in his support with Maribelle.
** CulturedWarrior
** FourStarBadass
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BladeOnAStick: Unlike most Great Knights, Frederick specializes in Lances instead of Axes, though he can still use them and Swords as well.
* CrutchCharacter: Though of the Oifey archetype, meaning he remains viable well past the early stages of the game. The pair up system makes him very useful without stealing too much XP from your low level characters.
* DoesNotLikeSpam: He hates wild game meat, especially bear meat.
* [[FirstGirlWins First Guy Wins]]: If you have him paired up with Lissa.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Not with his enemies, nor his allies, as his trainees can vouch for.
* TheLancer
* TheMentor: He prefers to guide others.
* NervesOfSteel: Lampshaded by Avatar regarding the jokes he gets from Chrom and Lissa. Although he claims to get all out of his system when there aren't people looking.
* NotSoAboveItAll: His supports with Avatar reveal that he [[spoiler:can't stand bear meat himself, despite chiding Lissa for refusing to eat it]].
** Also, his supports with Henry reveals that [[spoiler:he doesn't actually like training as much as people thinks he does]].
* NumberTwo: He's Chrom's second in command.
* OfficerAndAGentleman
* OneManArmy: Just like other Jagen characters, he gets to be this at the beginning of the game. Although thanks to the game's new class-change system, he still can maintain the status if the player plays it right.
* TheSpartanWay: His way of training his troops. Although instead of being a DrillSergeantNasty, he always keeps smiling while being polite...which his trainees find even [[OhCrap MORE scary]].
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Just like other characters, he got a odd alternate spelling in the [=NoJ=] stuff, in this case, "Fredrick" (no second "e").
* StopHelpingMe: Frederick's attempts to help someone sometimes backfire horribly. Of particular note is his C support with Chrom, where he tries to raise troop morale by sticking posters of Chrom '''naked''' in every tent.
* UndyingLoyalty: To the Ylisse Royal Family.
* VeteranInstructor
* {{Workaholic}}: Frederick takes his duties as a knight ''very'' seriously, to the point that some of his support conversations imply he doesn't even know how to relax.

!!Sully (Soiree)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sully_FE_A_4403.jpg]]
A female knight who serves the Shepherds. She prizes combat and has a daring, strong-willed personality, along with a rather foul mouth. She ends up having more bearing than the average guy which causes her to have lots of female fans. She's known as "The Woman to End All Men", and gets headaches dealing with mounds of fan mail. The worst cook in the army. Her birthday is December 5th.

->'''Class:''' Cavalier
->'''Voiced by:''' Momoko Ohara (Japanese), Amanda C. Miller (English)
----
* ActionGirl
* AmazonChaser: She manages to pull this off.
* {{Badass}}:
** BadassNormal
** BadassPrincess: If she marries Chrom.
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Basilio [[spoiler:and the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BladeOnAStick: Focuses on lances more than [[CoolSword swords]].
** Can gain [[AnAxeToGrind axes]] as well if she promotes to Great Knight.
* BlueOniRedOni: The Red Oni to Stahl's Blue.
* {{Bokukko}}: Also the first ever female member of the [[RedOniBlueOni Red Knight/Green Knight duo]].
* BoyishShortHair
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Chrom.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer
* FieryRedhead
* HotBlooded
* LethalChef
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The masculine girl to Stahl's feminine boy.
* OneOfTheBoys: Lampshaded during some of her supports.
* ShesGotLegs: Virion describes her as having shapely legs.
* SirSwearsALot: Good luck finding a scene she's in where she doesn't swear at least once. Her in-game description even describes her as being foul-mouthed.
* TalkToTheFist
* {{Tomboy}}
* TomboyishName: Her localized name, obviously (at least in English). Specially considering that gamers usually think of another character from [[{{Uncharted}} another famous video game series]] when they hear that name.

!!Virion (Viole/Viaur)
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Viaur_Artwork_730.jpg]]
A noble from a nation in Valm that was conquered by Walhart. Many would dismiss him as a braggart or a buffoon, but he has the skill to back up his boasts. He's apparently in search of a bride and, as such, asks out any and everyone in his path. Spends the most time in front of the mirror. His birthday is December 10th.

* LadykillerInLove: If paired.
* LargeHam: Especially when he's around women.
* TheFightingNarcissist
* PyrrhicVictory: The reason why, despite being a skilled tactician, he never tries to take the Avatar's role. He gets too many of his men killed achieving any specific objective, as opposed to the Avatar's (and likely the player's) reluctance to sacrifice so much as a single unit.
* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Though, shockingly to everyone, his strategy is that of TheCombatPragmatist.

* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire: Starts with a Fire tome.
** BlowYouAway

* BattleCouple: She can be paired with Male Avatar, Chrom, Frederick, Gaius, and Henry.
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* BeYourself: In her A rank support conversion, Male Avatar said that she's fine the way she is and need not to emulate and behave like the heroines in the novels that she reads. This however leads her to believe that [[ComicallyMissingThePoint the next novel she reads should be about a heroine who's as clumsy and plain as she is.]]
* BladeOnAStick: She even gets Lancefaire as a Falcon Knight.
* CuteBookworm: Her support with Avatar shows she LOVES to read novels. Although in her case it's more for evading herself from her "klutzy" reality.
** CanonWelding: One of the books she reads is called "[[spoiler:The Genealogy of the Holy War]]". The English version hilariously changed this to the "[[spoiler:Ribald Tales of the Faith War]]" instead.
* {{Dojikko}}[=/=]TheKlutz: She gets better later in the game, though. Specially after she gets married.
* DorkKnight
* GoodIsNotDumb
* GoodIsNotSoft
* {{Escapism}}: The reason why reading is one of her hobbies is because of she can pretend to be the protagonist of the novel instead of her usual clumsy self.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Event though she's arguably one of the best Pegasus Knights in the game, she still has a severe inferiority complex due to her klutziness, that makes her trip every three steps.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Cordelia.
* MagicKnight: A flying version if promoted to Dark Flier. Is a flying CombatMedic version instead if promoted to Falcon Knight.
* OfficialCouple: With Chrom, unless the player gives him a higher support level with another girl[[spoiler: or keeps him from supporting with the girls until after chapter 11]].

An armored knight who serves the Shepherds. He wears a blank face and doesn't talk much.

The tallest person at the table. His birthday is June 24th.

* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Sumia, Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* ButtMonkey: His first appearance in an issue of Famitsu was spent demonstrating different ''death quotes'' between classic and casual mode. Poor guy.
* DoubleWeapon: His starting Javelin, which he's shown with in his official art.
* TheGenericGuy: In fact, he's so generic to the point of his family barely knows he exist. He also capable of pulling some serious StealthHiBye even though he's the largest person in the army.
* FailedASpotCheck: Seriously, he wears that much armor and ''still'' barely gets noticed! In fact, it's so bad that despite being the tallest person at the table according to his bio, for ages the rest of the army was baffled by an extra cup at the table, and assumed the place was haunted!
* ImpossiblyCoolClothes: For a certain value of "cool", but certainly "impossible".
* MightyGlacier
* NiceGuy
* TheQuietOne: Literally. One of the reasons most people don't realize his presence is that he doesn't say anything nor makes any sounds (despite wearing that bulky armor everywhere!) when entering a room.
** People probably mistake him as a mannequin in a decorative display armor back at the Shepherd's HQ.

None of those classes have lances as an option, meaning he has to discard his lance rank altogether.

* JokeItem: Seen fighting with a Wooden Stick. Really. (Looks more like a log.)
* LightningBruiser: He will '''always''' become one of these.

** And unlike many other cases in the series, this is actually built into his character too. The sidequest you get him in focuses on him overcoming his fears of being useless. Heck, ''getting him to level up at least once'' is how you recruit him.
* OlderThanTheyLook: In a support, Donny claims to be the same age as Lissa.
* ShoutOut: He'll shout "Let's [[LarryTheCableGuy get 'er done]]!" in battle sometimes.

A swordsman from Regna Ferox, located to the north of Ylisse. His skill with the sword is undeniable, and he has even been endorsed by Khan Basilio himself, but he is usually pretty cold and indifferent. The very sight of a woman, however, gets him incredibly flustered, and he'll likely flee if approached by one. The best at peeling vegetables. His birthday is October 10th.

** UnusualEars
* MeaningfulName[=/=]StealthPun: ''Literature/TheVelveteenRabbit''.
* MsFanservice: She is already getting declared this, though she's also the LastOfTheirKind and so has a bit more depth than that.
** InnocentFanserviceGirl: Shows up in supports occasionally, due to ValuesDissonance between human and Taugel culture. For example, in a support with Stahl she sees nothing wrong with cleaning fruit off his face by licking it off.
* Really700YearsOld: Her B Support with the Avatar implies she met the [[FireEmblemTellius Laguz]] at one point, but doesn't see much of them now. Given the presence of [[spoiler: Priam]] confirms Awakening takes place many generations after Ike's games, she's most likely a lot older than she looks, though not to the extent of the dragons.

* {{Fanservice}}: Gets a swimsuit scene in the "Summer of Bonds" DLC chapter.
* HouseHusband
* HurricaneOfPuns: All of his Japanese battle quotes use the word, "amai." This word means both sweet (as in taste, since he loves candy) and also describes someone who isn't trying very hard (so, it's used a lot in taunts which mean something like "Is that all?" or "You should've tried harder!") His English ones are in a similar mold, with lines like "What a cupcake!" and "Like candy from a babe!"

** He's also one for [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the Heavy]], since both of them are imposing bruisers with a limited grasp on English, but are much smarter than they look.
* EloquentInMyNativeTongue
* FaceOfAThug: He's a pretty friendly guy, but his appearance often leads to... misunderstandings. See NotWhatItLooksLike below.
* FieryRedhead
* FunnyForeigner: Implied to be this, which explains his broken English.
-->'''Gregor:''' Is just, how you say, flatulence? No, wait. ...Flippery? ...Flatness? ...Gregor does not remember. Is that word when people say lies to make other person feel better.
* GeniusBruiser: While big and muscular, Gregor is shown to be pretty intelligent. He claims that if you aren't smart, then you can't survive as mercenary. He also has knowledge about health and diseases.
* GentleGiant
* HulkSpeak: Which, again, does nothing to help his case.
* HuskyRusskie
* MayDecemberRomance: Most of his pairings due to the young age of the cast.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: He's first seen chasing after Nowi after the latter has run away from him. Due to FaceOfAThug above, Chrom instantly assumes he's just a bad guy attacking her. Of course, ItMakesSenseInContext.
* StayFrosty: One of his support quotes.
* [[StupidSexyFlanders Stupid Sexy Gregor]]: In his B Support Conversation with Male Avatar. Male Avatar claims he's been having weird dreams about Gregor after drinking one of his health drinks where he dreamt that he was sleeping with his head on Gregor's lap. Ever since then he's been afraid to go to bed. [[spoiler:Turns out, Male Avatar had contracted some kind of disease after been bitten by an insect.]]

!!Libra (Riviera/Libera)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Riviera_FE13_Artwork_1577.jpg]]
A priest of Ylisse with a calm and composed nature. Constantly mistaken for a female because of his beautiful face. He tends to pay attention to the tiniest details. Prays to god more than anybody in the army, and has the scabbiest knees. He's... kinda become infamous based on the trailers. His birthday is July 1st.

* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Sumia, Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* CombatMedic
* CrossDressingVoices: Voiced by a woman in both dubs.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: As a child his [[ParentalAbandonment parents abandoned]] him because they believed he was under DemonicPossession and he wandered his life bitter and alone until he joined the priesthood.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: And ''sounds'' like one too!
* EvenTheGuysWantHim[=/=]StupidSexyFlanders: Even after he tells Virion he's a man, Virion continues to flatter him for his looks and tells Libra he's "like a rose". Libra thinks he's funny, but Virion has to remind himself that Libra's still a dude.
-->'''Virion:''' Oh...even though I saw his pure male side...[[ItsOkayIfItsYou he still moves me]].
* {{Expy}}: An androgynous Monk who is often mistaken for a girl? [[FireEmblemElibe Now where have I heard that before...]] But this time it's even more convincing due to the addition of voice acting.
* MagicKnight

* VocalDissonance: As mentioned above, he has a ''very'' feminine voice.

!!Tharja (Sallya)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Sallya_Artwork_3154.jpg]]
A sorceress from Plegia. She puts the "dark" in dark mage and has a cruel and fiercely jealous nature. She doesn't really care about the feud between Plegia and Ylisse and is often chanting suspicious curses when she's alone. She openly stalks the Avatar (aka you - the player), whose one true love she claims to be. Has the nicest body in the army, and thinks the darkest thoughts. Her birthday is April 2nd.

* ActionGirl
* BadPowersGoodPeople: In her support with Donnel she more or less ridicules him, and his hometown, for believing in this, wondering how it hasn't been burned down yet. In the following support however it turns out the entire group became incredibly ill and she was the one to cure them, by aiming a curse at the illness. [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain She orders him to never let anyone know it was her.]]
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Her 0-1 stat-up quote when leveling up is "You'd better not hold this against me...", which appears to be addressed at the player themself. Doubles as TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou given her [[CuteAndPsycho nature.]]
* CreepyGood: Joins Chrom's party for a somewhat egotistical reason, openly stalks the Avatar, proficient in curses, possesses extreme jealousy[[spoiler:, uses her daughter as a guinea pig for said curses and neglects her]]... she is definitely this.
* {{Curse}}: As her description states, she enjoys practicing these when left to her own devices.
* CycleOfRevenge: Her reason for leaving Plegia and joining Ylisse is that she has no interest in being drawn into Plegia's feud with Ylisse. This isn't because she thinks vengeance is wrong, but because she herself has no personal grudge against Ylisse and doesn't like the fact that she's fighting because of other people's need for revenge.
* [[DarkIsEvil Dark Is Bad]]: Pretty much the same case as Henry. [[spoiler:Tharja is aware of how dangerous a curse can be, however, and Present!Tharja speculates that Future!Tharja didn't teach her daughter any of her curses for this reason.]]
** [[spoiler:ParentalNeglect: How much is uncertain, but Future!Tharja is revealed to have had shades of this, having neglected Noire somewhat to study more methods of destroying enemies.]]
*** [[spoiler: Present!Tharja's supports with Noire however, indicate that Future!Tharja did care about Noire quite a lot despite this.]]
** [[spoiler:[[AbusiveParents Abusive Parent]]: Future!Tharja practiced using curses on Noire, and so does the Present!Tharja as well. Noire's father eventually takes the tools she uses for cursing to try to stop her from doing so.]]
* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire
** BlowYouAway
** ShockAndAwe: Comes with an Elthunder tome.
** CastingAShadow: Since Dark Mage and Sorcerer have access to BlackMagic.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: A ''very'' well-hidden one, mind.
** HeroicComedicSociopath
* LadyOfBlackMagic
* LiesToChildren: She ''tries'' to lie to [[Really700YearsOld Nowi]] by saying her parents are in "far away place". When it doesn't work, [[SandInMyEyes she just goes along with Nowi's poor attempt to not crying]].
* MsFanservice: Acknowledge in-universe. And of course she gets a swimsuit scene in the DLC.
* NotSoStoic: Listen to her two voice clips on the official site. The first is her sounding like a typical LadyOfBlackMagic, the second is her laughing gleefully.
** CuteButPsycho[=/=]BloodKnight: She laughs when using her ''Vengeance'' skill.
** {{Yandere}}: During her Confession, she says "I love you... If you dare... to betray my feelings... I won't forgive you. At this point, it's too late... to think about escaping me..." Of course, this made her a FetishFuelStationAttendant to many fans [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer not just guys either]].
*** This troper got an alternate line during Tharja's confession: "I can't believe you made me love you!....of course, if you back out now, I'll murder you in your sleep."
*** The official site reveals that Tharja has (heavily implied to be erotic) dreams about Avatar after Tharja falls in love with him/her. Tharja also expects Avatar to live up to the promise that the ''dream'' of him/her made.
* PunchClockHero: Unusual for recruitable dark magic users in Fire Emblem history. Never-the-less, she is far more interested in pursuing her own interests than fighting for a cause, which is what allows her to be recruited.
* RedMage: In an unusual way. Her Dark Mage and Sorcerer classes combine standard magic with... BlackMagic!
** MagicKnight: Becomes a mounted version if promoted to Dark Knight, but that means she is no longer a RedMage.
* SingleTargetSexuality[=/=]IfItsYouItsOkay: Her StalkerWithACrush relationship towards the Avatar doesn't change regardless of their gender.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS
* StalkerWithACrush: Her relationship with the Avatar to begin with. Even if he marries her, she keeps some elements of this with him.
* StrangeGirl
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her outfit doesn't leave much to the imagination, though her portrait happens to have her tome and arms blocking most of her outfit.

!!Anna
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/koi_anna_8151.jpg]]
A mysterious traveling merchant. As one would expect from a merchant, she's a friendly and polite smooth-talker. She loves gold and rich customers. She's actually one of many, many identical siblings that include her, Outrealm guide Anna and traveling merchant Anna. Has the fattest nest egg of the army. Her birthday is June 11th.

----
* ActionGirl
* BattleCouple: Possibly with Male Avatar if S Support is achieved.
* ChristmasCake
* DerailingLoveInterests: Averted. She's a romance option for the Avatar, which led to doubts about her relationship with Jake. As it turns out, however, this is a different Anna entirely, so it's all cool.
* DidYouJustScamCthulhu: Attempted in her support conversation with Tiki. She tries to exploit the Valmese people's worship of the "Voice of the Divine Dragon" and said dragon's innocent nature to get rich quick... and almost gets eaten once Tiki figures it out. She would have gotten away with it if she had just kept her mouth shut.
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: She has a miniature teddy bear ''attached to the hilt of her sword''.
* HurricaneOfPuns: In a similar manner to Gaius and his sweets, the majority of her battle quotes are related to her profession.
* MagicKnight: However, her offensive magic comes from magic-casting weapons.
** CombatMedic
** CoolSword
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: Combines with StrongFamilyResemblance and NamesTheSame akin to [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Nurse Joy, Officer Jenny, and Don George]]. When confronted by the fact that there are those Annas running around the Other World Gate to the other FireEmblem time periods, she says that they are her sisters. So far, there are about 7 different Annas not including this one by looking at their stats.
* MemeticHandGesture: Resting her index finger on her face, like her sisters.
* MoneyFetish: She ''loves'' money above all else. [[spoiler: Even when she confesses to the Avatar she'll mention how he'll be number two to gold and money.]]

* CoolSword
* LastGirlWins: UpToEleven if paired with Chrom. She joins in ''the very chapter'' Chrom is forced to marry someone, meaning you have to pretty much keep them glued to eachother the entire mission, and keep him away from ''any'' other girl up to that point (or make sure all of his other potential love interests are already paired up with other men), in order to pair them.
** StrangledByTheRedString: If you manage to pull this off, they'll be married ''before they even have a chance to support!''
* MagicDance
* MagikarpPower: Her stat growths as a Swordmaster point to this. She'll end up maxing (or nearly maxing) skill and speed and will get ''surprisingly'' high strength(for someone who starts as a Dancer).
** TruthInTelevision: Professional dancers in real life are very skilled, generally are in great shape, and can be incredibly strong depending on their focus.
* RoseHairedGirl
* ShrinkingViolet: Not excessively so, but Olivia is quite shy. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] with her title in the WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue during the ending credits: [[ShapedLikeItself Shrinking Violet]].

!!Cherche (Serge)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Serge_2754.png]]
A Wyvern Rider who serves Duke Virion's family. She's a domestic woman, who's good at cooking and sewing, but her wyvern partner Minerva is absolutely vicious. Her aesthetic sense is bizarre and she calls bugs and monsters "cute". Of all the people in the army, she's the scariest person to anger. Her birthday is October 17th.

* ActionGirl
* AnAxeToGrind
** Can gain [[BladeOnAStick Lances]] if promoted to Wyvern Lord.

* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BewareTheNiceOnes: As her profile says, she's the scariest to anger of all people in the army. Considering said army includes a {{Yandere}} and a thousand year old dragon who almost ''ate'' someone who got on her bad side, that's ''really'' saying something.
* BodyguardCrush: If paired with Virion.
* ChristmasCake
* DragonRider
* FieryRedhead: Subverted, as she usually very calm and tranquil unless you get into her bad side.
* NightmareFetishist: She generally dotes on her wyvern like she's a puppy dog and often reacts in surprise when Minerva almost attacked other people. Her standard reaction to anything abnormal is a soft, dreamy "Cute...".

!!Henry
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Henri_FE13_Artwork_1050.jpg]]
A sorcerer from Plegia who always wears a smile on his face. He's unusually cheerful for a sorcerer, but also incredibly cruel, having no qualms about cursing or killing people. Has the lowest blood pressure among his comrades. His birthday is November 13th.

->'''Class:''' Dark Mage

----
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BoardingSchoolOfHorrors: Was raised in WizardingSchool version one so his [[ParentalNeglect parents wouldn't have to take care of him]]. Implied to be why he turned out so... unhinged.
* BloodKnight: He joins Chrom because he loves war.
-->'''Henry''': Heck, I always obey orders! Well, except for the stupid ones like "dont fight the enemy." If someone tried to tell me that, I'd cut'em in half and feed them to the crows!
* BodyHorror: His event tile and level up quotes reveal he's quite enthusiastic about this potentially happening to ''him!''
* ComedicSociopathy: Henry really gets a kick out of schadenfreude.
* CreepyGood: Like Tharja, he is definitely this, what with being a BloodKnight, being unecessarily cruel, practicing curses, and doing it all with a smile!
* {{Curse}}: His supports with Sumia indicate that he's also a practitioner.
* [[DarkIsEvil Dark Is Bad]]: While not actually evil, Henry is more malicious then the other main characters.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Non-villanious example, he joins because he ''somehow'' knows he'll be able to fight more if he's with Chrom's party than with Plegia.
* DissonantSerenity: It takes a special kind of insanity to be smiling whilst telling the person you hope includes you in his army that if he doesn't want you he can just kill you on the spot.
** DissonantLaughter: Hell, his ''death cry'' is a laugh, though noticeably weaker than his usual cackles.
* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire: Comes with an Elfire tome.
** BlowYouAway
** ShockAndAwe
** CastingAShadow: Since Dark Mage and Sorcerer have access to BlackMagic.
* EyesAlwaysShut: Even during his Confession! He's like [[FireEmblemTellius Oscar]] that way, though there's one of his portrait (panicked) that has him opened his eyes. [[spoiler:They're black.]]
* FreakyFridayFlip: Uses magic to do this with Sumia in their supports.
* HeroicComedicSociopath: His more unhinged tendencies are mostly played for ([[GallowsHumor dark]]) laughs.
* {{Keet}}: A somewhat creepy example.
* {{Irony}}: He was born on the 13th, and appears in chapter 13, the number typically associated with bad luck and misfortune. However, he has pretty good Luck and November 13th is World Kindness Day.
** Also, [[spoiler:he used to be one of Gangrel's subordinates, but was incapacitated before he could go head to head with the party. His and Ricken's supports touch upon this]].
* NightmareFetishist: See BodyHorror for one. And his response when asked about his dreams?
-->''"I want to die a horrible, bloody death that's completely painless. ...I don't like ouchies."''
* ThePollyanna: Revealed in supports. An interesting example though, as he is quite unhinged.
* PetTheDog: Suprisingly when Olivia thinks she is going to stop him from [[MercyKill mercy killing]] an injured puppy in their C support, he calls her crazy because [[HeroesLoveDogs he loves dogs]]. He seems to have a soft spot for animals in general, actually.
* PunchClockHero: Similiar to Tharja. Though, he joins because he figured he'll last longer with them than against them.
* PureIsNotGood: Tharja says that his power derives from his purity. He is kinda crazy.
* RedMage: In an unusual way. His Dark Mage and Sorcerer classes combine standard magic with... BlackMagic!
** MagicKnight: Becomes a mounted version if promoted to Dark Knight, but that means he is no longer a RedMage.
* StepfordSmiler: Again, revealed in support conversations. Interestingly, rather than trying to hide his problems through his smile, he seems to have deluded himself into believing that he is genuinely a cheerful and happy person. Two layers of it, in fact! (He's masquerading as a Type C, but deep down he's really a Type A.)
* RavensAndCrows: He comes to the map where he can be recruited with an entire flock of them. Tharja's support implies that they are his pagan that protect his identity from everyone prior that.
* TheUnsmile: His "angry" portrait.
* WhiteHairedPrettyBoy

Maribelle's son from the future. He appears menacing and strong, but lacks any fighting talent and has poor reflexes to boot. The scar on his face was caused by a violin string. He's a crybaby who cries over the smallest things. Often mistaken for a bandit by his comrades. His birthday is Feburary 22nd.

* HiddenDepths: His hobbies include chess, brewing tea, and playing violin.
* {{Irony}}: In her generic conversations with other party members, Maribelle jokes that she wants to become a big, hairy barbarian. Her son definately ''looks'' like one.

Sully's daughter, She seems just as tomboyish (if not more so) as her mother but has a kind heart and is protective of others weaker than her. Loves sparring, and if she sees someone who has ability and skill she will challenge him or her no matter whom. Hates people who look down on her because of her gender.

* KnightInShiningArmor
* LethalChef: Like mother, like daughter. Her C rank support with her father has her poisoning her father, then the entire army; though he reassures her that she's not as bad as her mother.

Sumia's daughter, she's optimistic, cheerful and brimming with energy. Due to her admiration of cool heroes, she diligently studies dramatic entrances. However, being as clumsy as her mother, her entrances are often dramatic for the wrong reasons. Famous for her nonsensical sleep-talking. Her birthday is May 14th.

Cordelia's daughter, she developed an impudent personality because of her inferiority complex from being compared to her "perfect" mother.

->'''Class:''' Mercenary
->'''Voiced by:''' Saori Seto (Japanese), JulieAnnTaylor (English)
----
* ActionGirl
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Most of her insecurity is from being compared with her mother. After all, if her talented mother ends up dead, what chance does she have? Hell, the reason why she's a mercenary and not a pegasus knight is so she doesn't have to be compared with Cordelia and sets up her own standard.
* BrattyTeenageDaughter: Seems to be one of these at first blush, but it turns out she's [[InadequateInheritor got a]] [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex lot of]] [[OrphansOrdeal reasons]] to be distrustful and snide to the adults around her.

** Can gain either an [[AnAxeToGrind Axe]] (Hero) or [[BowAndSwordInAccord Bow]] ([[HorseArcher Bow Knight]]) depending her promotion.

[[caption-width-right:250:Morgan as a Male (Left) and Female (Right)]]
The son or daughter of the Avatar (aka you - the player), they are always the opposite gender of you. Because he/she has almost no memories of his or her life in the future, nobody knows what timeline they're from. Unique in that he/she is the only possible ''Third'' Generation character. Possesses a childish enthusiasm and is quick to play along with others. His/her dream is to become a tactician like you. He/She moves around the most within the army.

->'''Class:''' Same as other parent, Tactician if other parent was Lord, Dancer, or [[spoiler:Conqueror]], [[spoiler:Sorcerer in Future of Despair Chapter 1 (Male Morgan), Wyvern Lord in Chapter 2 (Female Morgan)]]
->'''Male Morgan voiced by:''' YoshimasaHosoya (Japanese), ToddHaberkorn (under Todd Stone) (English)
->'''Female Morgan voiced by:''' MiyukiSawashiro (Japanese), Nicole Karrer (English)
----
* [[spoiler:AmnesiacDissonance: Taking the Future of Despair DLC into account, it is likely that this may be the case. There is no specific event where the Morgan you recruit remembers anything, though.]]
* [[spoiler:BossBattle: The first DLC Chapter of the Future of Despair arc features the male version of Morgan as it's boss! Chapter 2 features female Morgan instead.]]
** [[spoiler:SkippableBoss: If you talk to him[=/=]her with Avatar of either gender. Talking to him[=/=]her with the opposite gender Avatar will yield a longer dialogue.]]
** [[spoiler:RedMage: Male Morgan as a boss mixes normal magic with BlackMagic as a Sorcerer.]]
** [[spoiler:DragonRider: Female Morgan as a boss uses [[AnAxeToGrind axes]] as a Wyvern Lord.]]
* BrainyBaby[=/=]ChildProdigy: Depending on whom Avatar marries, it's possible that Morgan lost his/her parents when s/he was very young, no more than two or three years old. This doesn't stop him/her from remembering ''studying strategy and tactics'' with Avatar.
* CanonWelding[=/=]ContinuityNod: In the Japanese version, he/she shares the tactician from [[FireEmblemElibe the 7th game's]] default name: Mark. They're not the same, but the name itself is possibly a bit of MythologyGag.
* ChickMagnet[=/=]DudeMagnet: Notable in that they sometimes perform romantic gestures before the S support.
* CloudCuckooLander
* EasyAmnesia
* GenderBlenderName: In the West, his/her name is Morgan, which can be used on both males and females.
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: SwordAndSorcerer version, at least thematically in their official art. Male Morgan holds a sword, Female Morgan holds a magic tome. Whether or not they become fighters or spellcasters is completely up to you. [[spoiler:Inverted as bosses in the Future of Despair DLC chapters: Male Morgan is the spellcaster, and Female Morgan is the fighter.]]
* HalfHumanHybrid: A female Morgan if the Avatar is paired with Nowi, Panne, or Tiki.
* MotorMouth
* NoodleIncident: [[spoiler: Don't think you're getting ANY information on Morgan's past.]]
** [[spoiler:May have been lessened with the Future of Despair DLC, the first and second chapter's of it respectively features the male and female version of Morgan as a '''''boss'''''!]]
* OneManArmy[=/=][[OneManArmy One-Woman Army]]: To the point of being a possible GameBreaker. Actually, a certain version of Female Morgan is arguably the most powerful unit of the entire game. [[note]]To be precise, a Female Morgan as the daughter of the Male Avatar and Lucina. Child characters benefit from the skills and growth rates of their parents, and when Morgan is a Third Generation Character, he/she benefits ''twofold''. Apply that to Lucina, who is the most powerful Second Generation Character (specially if her mother is Olivia or Sumia), and then add the Avatar, another OneManArmy... Yeah. Saying that girl is going to pack a punch is pretty much a HUGE understatement.[[/note]]
* StealthPun: Their birthday is Children's Day in Japan.
* UndyingLoyalty: To the Avatar. [[spoiler:When the Avatar's body possessed by Grima in any conclusion of the BadFuture, s/he continues to loyally serve Grima even though s/he has to kill his/her friends.]]
** MommasBoy[=/=]DaddysGirl: Pretty much the only thing that s/he remembers is the Avatar, and clearly more attached with the Avatar than the other members of their family. [[spoiler:Becomes full-blown [[DaddysLittleVillain Mommy's/Daddy's Little Villain]] in Future of Despair DLC.]]
* [[spoiler: UnexpectedCharacter: The Male and Female Morgans being the boss of Future of Despair Chapter 1 and 2 respectively came completely out of the left field.]]

Panne's son from the future. He's timid and extremely cowardly. Afraid of the extinction of the Taguel race, he's reluctant to fight on the front lines, but will put himself in danger for his friends. Has the loudest voice in the army. His birthday is March 14th.

* RescueRomance: If paired with Nah. Notably the rescue occurs ''during'' a support conversation.

* SkunkStripe: A rather strange case. He has his mother's very dark brown apart from this, but the stripe is based his father's hair color.
* VoluntaryShapeshifter
* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: In a support with Nah, he seems to think this of his [[KillerRabbit transformation]], at least compared to [[InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons hers.]] He later ends up proving himself wrong though.

* IllGirl: Her supports with Brady have her reveal that she's anemic.
* MoodSwinger: To the point of pseudo SplitPersonality.
* PossessionImpliesMastery: She doesn't seem to have a prior experience in fighting and just coincidentally found a bow near her. Suddenly, she's a level 10 Archer.
* WellDoneDaughterGirl: Her supports with her mother has her seeking approval from her, as Tharja in the future was apparently very cold towards Noire.
* {{Yandere}}: Inherited a bit of this from her mother, as her S Support with Inigo has her shooting arrows at him to "protect him from other unwanted ladies".

Nowi's daughter from the future. In stark contrast to her mother, she is remarkably mature for her age and adept at keeping her feelings in check -- including those about her odd name. Despite being a child, she sometimes questions the intentions of others. Has the nicest teeth. Her birthday is March 29th.

* HalfHumanHybrid: Her father will be human no matter what, though it doesn't really affect anything.
* PunnyName: When paired with her mother's - 'nah' is [[CaptainObvious of course]] a colloquialism for 'no'.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: In the Japanese version, her katakana can be confused for 'Soso'. Many called her that until it was realized that 'Nn' was the name that's strangely intended.

* [[spoiler:MotiveDecay: His reason for desiring a war in the first place: Walhart's conquerance of the continent of Valm caused Plegia's memories of Ylisse's destruction to come to the surface, causing Gangrel to start his own unification plan that involved uniting Plegia, Ferox, and Ylisse under himself, so that they could stand up to the Valmese Empire.

[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Inverse_9855.jpg]]
Gangrel's subordinate. A cunning vixen who leverages her "assets" to lead men to their ruin. She is actually the servant of Validar, as Validar supposedly saved her life in the past. [[spoiler:In the fifth [=SpotPass=] chapter, it is revealed that Validar saving her life is a lie. In reality, he murdered Aversa's parents and brainwashed her to be his servant. She joins Chrom's army afterwards if she survives and fights for atonement, ever since she discovered she had been used by Validar. Bathes longer than anyone else in the army.]]

In the Outrealm, specifically the Champions of Yore DLC, an Aversa which hails from another world has gotten her hands on the Einherjar from Old Hubba, and Chrom has to help him get them back from her.

** [[spoiler:MarshmallowHell: Pretty much smothers male Avatar in said cleavage in her confession.]]

* [[spoiler:DarkAndTroubledPast: Revealed in her [=SpotPass=] recruitment chapter. She was once just a normal girl with a power so unique that Validar killed her parents and brainwashed her into believing that he saved her so that she could become his servant.]]

* MagicKnight: One uses [[BladeOnAStick lances]] and [[BlackMagic dark magic]].
** RedMage: Can use normal magic as well.
* [[spoiler:RecurringBoss: But you only fight her twice, one being a late-game chapter, and one being the penultimate chapter before the final chapter. In her [=SpotPass=] Chapter, she is instead just an NPC unit with mirrors of your characters + a mirror of her serving as the opponents.]]

->'''Class''': Berserker
----
* AFatherToHisMen: Is willing to allow a soldier to retreat when he finds that he can't fight anymore because of Emmeryn's words, and apologizes when said soldier is motivated to fight again upon hearing why '''he''' won't retreat. He also [[spoiler:gave candy to Henry as he resembled his son, which you can find out about in Henry's and Ricken's support with each other]].
* AntiVillain: [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Type I and IV.]]
* BadassBeard
* [[spoiler:FaceDeathWithDignity]]: [[spoiler:When defeated, he commends Chrom and his group, and [[LastRequest asks them to spare his men]].]]
* FaceOfAThug: Despite his rough appearance and the savage reputation of Berserkers, Mustafa is one of the more honorable generals of Plegia.
* [[IWillPunishYourFriendForYourFailure I Will Hurt Your Family If You Don't Fight]]: The reason why he doesn't retreat himself is that Gangrel will go for his wife and kids should he do so.
* MartialPacifist: According to his in-game bio.
* MauveShirt: One of the more memorable ones due to his visibly honorable characteristics for a soldier from Plegia and because the map where he's fought on has [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MfvY1S-j67k this music]] constantly playing.
* NobleDemon: Is from Plegia, but is visibly one of the more honorable ones, and was touched by Emmeryn's words [[spoiler:before she willingly sacrificed herself]] so he attempts to subdue Chrom and his group as painlessly as possible once it's clear that they won't willingly go with him. Quite a surprise given his [[TheBerserker class]].
* PetTheDog: Telling Chrom and his group that he will not kill them if they willingly go with him may not look like this at first as this is right after [[spoiler:Emmeryn's sacrifice]], but he did mean it. He was also willing to allow any soldiers who didn't want to fight anymore to retreat, and in excerpts from the official ''Awakening'' site, it is revealed that [[spoiler:he saw Olivia and told her to hide somewhere safe from the soon-to-be battlefield so that she wouldn't become a casualty]].

[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Valhart_4481.jpg]]
The unforgiving man who forged the Valmese Empire and unified the continent by force. He loathes losers and cowards and sought to unite the world through absolute power. While he holds down his opposition by force, he has the charisma needed to lead a country. Has a strict personality and his manner of speaking is difficult to understand. [[spoiler:He reappears in the second [=SpotPass=] chapter and can be recruited into Chrom's army. He becomes much calmer after joining Chrom's group, and serves as the army's number one vegetarian.]]

->'''Class:''' Conqueror
->'''Voiced by:''' Naomi Kusumi (Japanese), RichardEpcar (English)
----
* AchillesHeel: His Conquest skill negates this; specifically, it cancels out the bonuses of certain weapons against mounted or heavily armored foes, bonuses that would otherwise strike true against Walhart due to his Conqueror class.
* AnAxeToGrind: Has a unique one called the "Wolf Berg".
** WeaponOfChoice: Can use [[CoolSword swords]] and [[BladeOnAStick lances]] as well, but axes remain his preferred weapon, and he is the only one capable of wielding the Wolf Berg.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He's Level 25 when you meet him.
** AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He conquered the continent with force, and he rules it with the same amount. However, his regime is very brutal and harsh, [[spoiler: causing the public to eventually side more with the Ylissean League, resistance movements begin to pop up, and once it's proven he's not invincible, the Dynasts turn on him]].
* BadassGrandpa: Well, he did conquer an entire continent.
* [[spoiler:BattleCouple:]] Possibly with [[spoiler:Female Avatar]] if [[spoiler:S Support is achieved]].
* BigRedDevil: His armor and helmet give off this image. Some of the characters mock this by calling him a lobster.
* ClimaxBoss
* TheConqueror: Well, ''duh''!
* CoolHorse: It's huge, to hold up a huge man.
* {{Expy}}: Not him, but Conqueror is very similar to the Great Knight class. It has more balanced stats however, and boasts better movement.
* AFatherToHisMen: He is a charismatic ruler.
* HiddenDepths: Who would have thought Walhart to be a vegetarian?
* [[spoiler:MayDecemberRomance: Can be romanced by a Female Avatar with [=SpotPass=].]]
* [[spoiler: RecurringBoss: Thrice! He is first fought in a late-game chapter, then he's fought again in the next chapter as well, along with his highest ranked generals, Cervantes and Excellus. The third time is optional and can be done once you've unlocked access to the Final Chapter, but requires [=SpotPass=]. After the third time, if you fought him with Chrom, he will join you.]]
* [[spoiler:SecretCharacter: While this is not new, he is the first in the line of unique TinTyrant classes to be recruitable. Other units of his kind tend to be be given as rewards usable in bonus modes, but Walhart is the first to be on equal footing with other playable units (Support, ending, etc.).]]
* [[spoiler: SocialDarwinist: He is one as revealed in his supports. In Female Avatar's support, he becomes rather melancholy as he knows that after losing to Chrom's forces three times he no longer qualifies as what he dubs "strong" anymore. She eventually talks him out of it. In Male Avatar's support, he instead tries to persuade him to become one as well, but backs off once Avatar tells him why he can't share his beliefs. He recognizes that his ideal of conquerance may not be for the best in both supports.]]
* TinTyrant
* UniqueEnemy: Is of the Conqueror class, has his own weapon, and possesses a unique skill: Conquest! [[spoiler:And gets to keep it all when he joins you.]]

* EyesDoNotBelongThere: Those six red eyes of his? Are not his main ones. The artbook reveals that [[spoiler:his dragon head is actually an exoskeleton helmet, and those eyes grow on his human-like cheeks, below his main eyes, toward the back of his head]]. It's as freaky as it sounds.
* GiantFlyer: Borderline EldritchAbomination. [[spoiler:The entire last stage is fought on his back.]]
** Heck, the only reason it's even killable is because [[spoiler:you can attack Grima from the BadFuture. Present Grima cannot be targeted with any weapon whatsoever.]]

!!Old Hubba
An eccentric old man from the Outrealms; apparently a fortune-teller, but who knows. For generations, his family has guarded mystical cards that can summon the Einherjar--spirits of past heroes. But, because of his mistake, the cards have fallen into the wrong hands...
----
* BunnyEarsLawyer: For all his eccentricity, this is still a guy who can ''summon and control the spirits of past heroes.'' That's quite some power.
* CoolOldGuy
* DirtyCoward: Always makes excuses to avoid combat...
** DirtyOldMan: Like needing to stay behind to watch the ladies [[FreudianSlip backsides]]... I mean, backs.
* FortuneTeller: Can give this regarding relationships from the Main Menu. Although it's explicitly stated to be PlayedForLaughs.
* {{Necromancer}}: He summons and controls the spirits of dead heroes.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In "Champions of Yore 1", despite claiming that the Einherjar are mindless beings that can't be reasoned with, Chrom very nearly manages just that... then he says, out loud, that it must be because [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheSacredStones Eirika]] is gullible and naive. [[BerserkButton She doesn't take to kindly to that.]]
* PhonyPsychic: Gives off this vibe at least.

!!The Risen
[[quoteright:150:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Risen_chief_7822.png]]
[[caption-width-right:150:Risen Cheif portrait]]
Undead soldiers of unknown origins. They appear in the guise of men, yet possess no self-awareness, attacking the living without remorse. Following a cataclysmic event, they began to mysteriously appear from portals in mid-air. [[spoiler:In the future of which Lucina and the other children comes from, the Risen overwhelmed humanity when Grima was awakened, instigating the end of the world as they knew it.]]

->'''Class:''' Varies (Revenant and Entombed are exclusive to them)
----
* [[BossBattle Boss]]: The Risen Chiefs serve as this, whether in story or in DLC.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom
* KingMook: Risen Chiefs.
* NightOfTheLivingMooks
* NotUsingTheZWord: Averted by Henry who outright calls them zombies when you recruit him.
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: They're zombies sure, but they otherwise behave exactly like the class they are, which make them much more dangerous than your usual zombie.
* UniqueEnemy: Revenants and Entombed, the only Risen that aren't zombified versions of regular classes. They tend to be fairly weak, but give good experience ([[PinataEnemy Entombed especially]]) and use WolverineClaws.
* TheUsualAdversaries
* ZombieApocalypse: In the present, their mass appearance paves the way for a potential one. [[spoiler:In the BadFuture, it ''did'' get to Apocalypse levels.]]

!!The Einherjar
Legendary figures from the distant past, all heroes or units from previous games (such as Marth and Roy) in the series. They can be called forth from talismans to serve as units in battle.

->'''Class:''' Varies (Lodestar for Marth, Manakete for Tiki, Demon Fighter for Xenologue!Alm, Bride for Xenologue!Eirika)

* CanonWelding: As these guys are heroes and units from all past games in the series, this was inevitable.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: For one, the very ''existance'' of some of them, like Emperor!Hardin, but even ignoring that, the descriptions of most of them spoil their respective games. (Alm is casually mentioned to be [[spoiler: descended from royalty]], to give one example) Worst of all though is [[FireEmblemTellius The Black Knight]], as Armoured units are ''bare-headed'' by default in this game, not to mention the fact that even if he wasn't, you can still freely reclass him to something with more open clothing. And it's not hard to tell who he is from his hair color...
* MagicKnight: The Alm and Eirika that can be gotten from the Xenologues possesses the Demon Fighter class and Bride class respectively. The classes are also designed as [[{{Foil}} foils]] to each other.
* OurSpiritsAreDifferent: For one, they're entirely corporeal and act like your usual unit, though they can't Support with anyone. However, they can be brought back if killed, though at the level they were when you recruited them.
* UniqueEnemy: Marth possesses the Lodestar class, which grants him access to the [[RoyalRapier Rapier]] weapons and the [[CoolSword Falchions]].
* YouDontLookLikeYou: All of them use generic Avatar models in battle, with nothing but a hair colour and style change to indicate who they are. They also use generic palletes (blue for yours, green for NPC and red for enemy), meaning, for example, The Black Knight will never be seen wearing black armour.

[[/folder]]

* AffectionateNickname: Chrom calls her "Emm".

* Pride: [[spoiler: As a Dragon, he has displayed a superiority complex and always looked down on humanity especially when he rules in Lucina's BadFuture timeline.]]

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[He delivers this to Lucina in the BadFuture and to Avatar in the final chapter.]]

* BrattyTeenageDaughter

!!The Risen
[[quoteright:150:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Risen_chief_7822.png]]
[[caption-width-right:150:Risen Cheif portrait]]
Undead soldiers of unknown origins. They appear in the guise of men, yet possess no self-awareness, attacking the living without remorse. Following a cataclysmic event, they began to mysteriously appear from portals in mid-air. [[spoiler:In the future of which Lucina and the other children comes from, the Risen overwhelmed humanity when Grima was awakened, instigating the end of the world as they knew it.]]

** AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He conquered the continent with force, and he rules it with the same amount. However, his regime is very brutal and harsh, [[spoiler: causing the public to eventually side more with the Ylissean League, Restistance movements popping up and once it's proven he's NotSoInvinicbleAfterAll, the Dynasts turn on him]].

* BigRedDevil: His armor and helmet give off this image.

* [[spoiler:HiddenDepths: Henry mentions in his and Ricken's B Support that Campari used to make bird houses for homeless birds. Additionally his boss quote about making Ylisse feel the pain of of Plegia indicates a rough past.]]

* [[UnexpectedCharacter Unexpected Class]]: A female '''[[MightyGlacier Knight]]''' is quite rare, let alone as a boss in a ''Fire Emblem'' game. Not to mention she ''survives'' the chapter and apologies for attacking you, almost unheard of for one-time bosses with little story importance.

->'''Class:''' Varies

* SheIsTheKing: As ruler of the Halidom of Ylisse, she holds the title of "Holy King" in the Japanese version; however when not using her full title, characters still call her the queen. The English localization avoids this by giving the ruler of Ylisee the gender-neutral title "exalt."

* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Any Color Hair]]: All the second generation characters' hair colors are based on their father's hair color. The only exceptions are Morgan, who gets the hair color of the Avatar's partner, and Yarne, who mostly has his mother's hair apart from a strange SkunkStripe based on his father's hair color.

* NonActionGuy: And he resents it.

* BrattyTeenageDaughter: Seems to be one of these at first blush, but it turns out she's [[InadequateInheritor got a]] [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex lot of]] [[OrphansOrdeal reasons]] to be distrustful and snide to the adults around her.

----

->'''Voiced by:''' Ayano Yamamoto (Japanese)

!!Donnel/"[[AffectionateNickname Donny]]" (Denis)

* AffectionateNickname: The characters nickname him "Donny".

* BladeOnAStick: Weirdly, His class change options are [[CoolSword Mercenary]] and [[AnAxeToGrind Fighter]], making his promoted options [[CoolSword He]][[AnAxeToGrind ro]], [[AnAxeToGrind Warr]][[TheArcher ior]], and [[BowAndSwordInAccord Bow]] [[HorseArcher Knight]] and none of those classes have lances as an option, meaning he has to discard his lance rank altogether.

* MagikarpPower: He has pitiful starting stats but comes with a skill that increases ALL of his growth rates by 20% with no penalty. A very blatant example--he's extremely difficult to train as a Villager, but can become one of the most powerful characters in the entire series.

The youngest member of the Shepherds, he's practically their mascot. He looks and acts like a child, but hates being treated as less than an equal. He respects Chrom like an elder brother. Animals like him more than anyone else in the army. His birth day is May 23rd.

->'''Voiced by:''' Hiromi Igarashi (Japanese)

* ArentYouGoingToRavishMe: A rare non-sexual example: in the Golden Gaffe DLC Map, most of the playable characters have a line of dialogue spoken to the Risen chastising them for stealing their gold. Maribelle, on the other hand, complains that the Risen ''didn't'' rob her. "Do I look poor to you?!"

* SpoiledSweet: But because she's really cold at the first impression, many thinks that she's a RichBitch. Those how get pass the frosty facade of hers will have her eternal loyalty.

A mercenary who wanders between nations. He has a friendly and refreshing personality. Despite his mature appearance, he's surprisingly easy to hurt, getting mopey when people rib him over his age. Among his companions, he's the slowest to feel muscular pain. His birthday is January 27th.

* FaceOfAThug: He's a pretty friendly guy, but his appearence often leads to... misunderstandings. See NotWhatItLooksLike below.

* FunnyForeigner: Implied to be this, which explains his broken English.[[hottip:*:Gregor: "Is just, how you say, flatulence? No, wait. ...Flippery? ...Flatness? ...Gregor does not remember. Is that word when people say lies to make other person feel better."]]

A priest of Ylisse with a calm and composed nature. Constantly mistaken for a female because of his beautiful face. He tends to pay attention to the tiniest details. Prays to god more than anybody in the army. He's... kinda become infamous based on the trailers. His birthday is July 1st.

* MassiveNumberedSiblings: Combines with StrongFamilyResemblance and NamesTheSame akin like [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Nurse Joy]]. When confronted by the fact that there are those Annas running around the Other World Gate to the other FireEmblem time periods, she says that they are her sisters. So far, there are about 7 different Annas not including this one by looking at their stats.

* MagikarpPower: Her stat growths as a Swordmaster point to this. She'll end up maxing (or nearly maxing) skill and speed and will get ''surprisingly'' (for someone who starts as a Dancer) high strength.

* {{Keet}}: a somewhat creepy example.

* PetTheDog: Suprisingly when Olivia thinks she is going to stop him from [[MercyKill mercy killing]] an injured puppy in their C support, he calls her crazy because [[HeroesLoveDogs he loves dogs]].

!!Say'ri (Sairi)

The West-Khan of the militant nation of Ferox, he respects those with valor. He often acts and speaks in a silly way, but he is deceptively quick-witted and definitely possesses the strength befitting of his position. He acts as a fatherly protector of Chrom and co. and is both the rival and friend of the East-Khan Flavia. Has the quickest reflexes among his companions. His birthday is August 13th.

[[folder: The Lords]]

!!Chrom (Krom)
[[quoteright:264:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/264px-Krom_Artwork_5306.jpg]]
The first and foremost main character of the game, Chrom is the Prince of the Halidom of Ylisse is and a descendant of the Holy King who defeated the Fell Dragon Grima. Although royalty, he serves as Captain of the Shepherds, a local vigilante force, to keep his country at peace, and when suspicious activity is happening in the enemy nation of Plegia, he decides to investigate. He wields his nation's treasured sword, the Binding Blade "[[CoolSword Falchion]]". He may seem unsociable at first glance, but bursts into enthusiasm whenever anything interesting happens. Breaks the most things during army practice. His birthday is May 27th.

->'''Class:''' Lord
->'''Voiced by:''' TomokazuSugita (Japanese), MatthewMercer (English)

* AccidentalPervert: In their B support, Chrom walks in on a female Avatar naked.
* ActionDad: To [[spoiler:Lucina]]. Also possibly to Male Morgan, Cynthia, Brady, Kjelle and Inigo.
* {{Badass}}: Being a ''FireEmblem'' Lord, this was pretty much a given:
** BadassNormal
** BadassBaritone: He has a surprisingly deep voice for his build.
** BadassCape
** BadassFamily: If you marry the right characters, he gets to be ThePatriarch of one of the biggest [[BadassFamily Badass Families]] in video game history.
** BadassGrandpa: If the Avatar marries any of his children, he becomes Morgan's grandfather. [[spoiler:Although due to TimeTravel, he's still very young]].
** BadassInCharge
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with Sumia, Maribelle, Sully, Olivia, or Female Avatar. And the boost he gets is pretty impressive.
* BigBrotherMentor: To Lissa.
* BirthmarkOfDestiny: The Mark of Naga on his shoulder.
* CoolSword: He wields the [[FireEmblemAkaneia Falchion]]
** Plus BladeOnAStick after promotion.
* FutureMeScaresMe: PlayedForLaughs if he's Cynthia's father, and she reveals Future Chrom's pet name for her was "pega-pony-princess".
* TheHero
* [[spoiler:TheHeroDies]]: SpoilerOpening
** [[spoiler:FakingTheDead: [[SuperDickery How things work out in the main game.]]]] "I'm changing fate!"
* [[spoiler:HeroicBSOD]]: [[spoiler:Suffers one in the aftermath of Emmeryn's death. It takes the Avatar and all the other characters' words of encouragement to snap him out of it.]]
* HeroicLineage
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Though he catches on quick and corrects his mistake, when [[spoiler: Lucina]] asks to train with him he tells her it would be pointless as there's nothing he could possibly teach her. [[spoiler: The realization being that he's dead in her future, so she's not so much really asking to train but to spend time with her father again with what little common ground they have.]]
* MrFanservice: In Japan most female players pair their female Avatar with him, and looks like female Western gamers plan to do the same. That's gotta mean something. [[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/fe/kakusei_bk/kekka/index.html He also took first place in the male character poll]] (link contains spoilers). Oh, and naturally he gets a swimsuit scene in the DLC.
* TheNicknamer
* OlderAndWiser [=/=] OlderThanTheyLook: Chrom most notably looks more like an adult than a teenager. Time will tell if he's the first ''Emblem'' lord who's all grown up since Sigurd or whether it's just down to the art style.
* OneManArmy: Another given for ''FireEmblem'' Lords.
* RoyalRapier
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething
* ScrewDestiny: His first sample clip on the official site is him saying "I'm changing fate". Contrast [[YouCantFightFate Validar's line]].
* SleevesAreForWimps: He appears to wear them after he promotes, though.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: [[ConanTheBarbarian Crom]], Krom, and Chrome are all valid interpretations of the male lead's name.
** And in the end, it turned out the official answer was "none of the above", as Nintendo of America romanized it as "Chrom".
* WarriorPrince
* WeaponTwirling: Part of his VictoryPose.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair

[[caption-width-right:303:Two examples of the possible looks the Avatar can get, one for each gender.]]
Another main hero of the game, whose identity and name is crafted by you - the player. You collapsed one day in the middle of nowhere for no apparent reason. Although you have no memories to speak of, it's clear that you're an expert tactician. You're extremely charismatic and can bond with almost everybody. The army's greatest enigma. [[spoiler:You are Validar's child and a vessel required for the resurrection of the Fell Dragon. Your mother was a member of the Grimleal, but she betrayed the cult and took you, when you were an infant, away to safety. Grima's arrival from the future caused you to lose your memory when you first met Chrom.]]

->'''Female voiced by:''' MiyukiSawashiro (Japanese), MichelleRuff or WendeeLee (English)
----
* AGodIAmNot: [[spoiler:According to Validar near the end of the game, you could have been a god but you chose to be with your companions instead.]]
* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler:Your biological father conceived you specifically to become the host of a EldritchAbomination. Fortunately, your biological mother betrayed the cult and smuggled both of you out the country.]]
* AccidentalPervert: Inverted in a Female Avatar's A support with Chrom, where she walks in on a naked Chrom.
** She also does it to Gaius and Say'ri.
* TheAce: His/her ability to master a huge number of classes in the game, support with every character and be the TheStrategist of the the force simultaneously lands the Avatar quite firmly in this trope.
* ActionGirl: When she's a girl, [[CaptainObvious obviously]].
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: There are three different builds per gender to choose from: adult, late teen... and this. Which leads to {{Shotacon}} and {{Lolicon}} when the supports come into play... However, the localization does not have any "deep" or "childish" voices to choose from, which makes it closer to a young teen, like Ricken.
* AmnesiacHero: Lissa lampshades this to which Fredrick calls BS on the whole EasyAmnesia.
* [[spoiler:AntiChrist: The Avatar is the ChosenOne that will become the vessel for Grima, this universe's equivalent of Satan in the BadFuture. Which leads to...]]
** [[spoiler:AntiAntiChrist]]
* [[spoiler:ApocalypseMaiden: The world goes to hell if Avatar gets possessed by Grima. In the BadFuture, the possession is successful. In the present, they manage to successfully avert this fate for the Avatar. Alas, Grima has a backup plan...]]
* AudienceSurrogate: ''Obviously''.
* {{Badass}}: Pretty much goes without speaking.
** BadassAbnormal: Being able to change into any class not restricted by gender or exclusivity.
** BadassBookWorm[=/=]GeniusBruiser: You are the vigilante group's tactician.
** BadassLongcoat: wears a black coat/duster with a hood.
** BadassPrincess: If a Female Avatar marries Chrom.
** BadassBystander: The prologue sees your amnesiac avatar as anything but helpless. Being able to fight with swords and sorcery along with knowledge of battlefield tactics and awareness.
** BadassLonghair: Some of the hair options in character creation.
* BashBrothers: A Male Avatar and Chrom are very much this.
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any playable unit of the opposite sex.
* {{Bishonen}}: Very definitely an option for a Male Avatar.
* BornWinner: [[spoiler:As revealed by Validar, the Avatar was bred to become the vessel for Grima.]]
* CanonWelding: [[spoiler: In the Lyn DLC, Lyn speculates that that Mark/The Tactician from [[FireEmblemElibe Blazing Sword]] and the Avatar are indeed one and the same. The Avatar can confirm or deny her.]]
* CharacterCustomization
* ChickMagnet[=/=]DudeMagnet: The Avatar is confirmed to be able to hook up with ANY of the playable characters, provided they're of the opposite gender.
* CrazyPrepared: In Chapter 23, [[spoiler: it's revealed that the Avatar knew Basilio was alive and was using him as a secret agent to perform tasks that the Avatar couldn't do without being noticed, due to Validar's spies being everywhere. This includes ''replacing the stones on the Fire Emblem with fakes'', just in case Validar actually managed to get hold of it.]]
* [[spoiler:DemonicPossession: In the SpoilerOpening.]]
* DeadpanSnarker: He/she has his/her moments.
* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: Male Avatar can hook up with Tiki, who's a PersonOfMassDestruction that her mother Naga had to put her into DeepSleep to prevent her from degenerating into madness like all the other dragons. Her power is so tremendous that if she goes wild, the world will be destroyed.
** It's also possible to pair them up with the [=SpotPass=] characters, including [[spoiler: Gangrel and ''Walhart.'']]
** Considering how Robin [[spoiler: is the avatar of Grima, he/she arguably is this towards any of his/her potential pairings.]]
* [[spoiler:DisneyDeath: At the end of the game.]]
* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire
** BlowYouAway
** ShockAndAwe: Seems to prefer this, given that s/he starts with a Thunder tome and uses them in cutscenes.
* EliteTweak: The Avatar isn't a guaranteed GameBreaker like in the previous game, as the [[TheStrategist Tactician]] class starts out with stats and growth rates slightly weaker than the [[HeroUnit Lord]] class. However, branching into different classes will allow you to learn their skills and equip them when you class change back. This can eventually lead to the Avatar becoming one of the most powerful units in the army.
* [[spoiler:[[EnemyWithout Hero Without]]: Grima's]]
* FeaturelessProtagonist: The Game let's you choose your name, face, build, gender, birthday, and voice. The cut-scenes show your avatar hooded.
* FutureMeScaresMe: Not surprising considering he/she [[spoiler: becomes an EldritchAbomination]]
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration[=/=]LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In the Prologue chapter, the Avatar states that they can see things like the enemies strengths, weaknesses and weapons. Just like the player can.
* HelloInsertNameHere
** GenderBlenderName: In the English version at least, the default appears to be Robin, a name that could be male or female.
* GrandTheftMe: In an AlternateTimeline, Grima possesses your body and creates a BadFuture.
* GuileHero: The Avatar is the only person in the game that has support conversations with every recruitable character in the game.
* HeroicMime: Strangely enough, you're given the ''option'' to make them one (in the Japanese version at least). Other players' Avatars recruited from Streetpass are also this by default, at least during dialogue, (They do get VoiceGrunting in combat as usual) presumably so they don't overshadow the "main" Avatar in story importance.
* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice:]] [[spoiler:It's possible for the Avatar to pull one of these in the endgame, so as to ensure that Grima is permanently killed. The Avatar isn't actually dead though and seems to return fairly soon.]]
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Male Avatar and Chrom with A support.
* InstantExpert: Avatar has access to nearly all classes and skills.
* InTheHood: In some the CG cut scenes, no doubt due to the number of variations in his/her appearance presenting a logistical nightmare otherwise. In others, like what looks like the first one, things are shown from his/her perspective to avoid looking at him/her at all.
* IOweYouMyLife: The Avatar very much has this towards Chrom. A Male Avatar expresses it very well in their A support.
-->'''Male Avatar''': I'll save you like you saved me. So, let me help you. I'll bet on those bonds you made.
* [[spoiler:[[HydePlaysJekyll Jekyll Plays Hyde]]: In the main game.]]
* LauncherOfAThousandShips: '''In-universe!''' He/she can marry ''anyone.'' (Except Morgan, of course.)
** HoYay[=/=]LesYay: The Avatar can support everyone of the same gender as well, and some of them don't change for the Avatar's gender... [=Tharja/FemAvatar=] stands out especially.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaEu4kAWhQQ "Id (Serenity)"]], which gets many variations, most notably a TriumphantReprise [[spoiler: as the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4QTEzsCRIE Final Chapter theme.]]]]
* LethalChef[=/=]SupremeChef: Avatar varies between the two wildly. In particular, the non-human members of the army seem to think s/he's the best chef ever.
* MagicKnight: Is able to wield [[CoolSword swords]] and magic.
** Through reclassing however, the Avatar can access any weapon type. However, they may or may not be a Magic Knight depending on what you reclass into.
* MarkOfTheBeast: On the back of his/her hand. [[spoiler: Yes, it is related to [[BiggerBad Grima]].]]
* ManchurianAgent: [[spoiler:In the BadFuture timeline. Luckily you came CrazyPrepared in your timeline.]]
* MeaningfulName: In addition to simply referring to an entity that represents the player, in Hindu mythology, an Avatar is a terrenal manifestation of a deity. [[spoiler:In the BadFuture, your body gets [[GrandTheftMe hijacked]] and becomes the Avatar of the Fell Dragon Grima.]]
* MissionControl: His/her role within the army. He/she is, however, also a certified {{Badass}} in combat.
* NoodleIncident: In a support conversation with Gaius, he/she tells him an embarrassing secret involving a cow.
* OneManArmy: Can potentially become this if you got the time. The Avatar has to the ability the class change into any non-exclusive class and learn their skills. With the right skill setups, you can [[OneHitKill one-shot]] enemies and dodge enemies like a [[BulletTime bullet timer]].
* ShipperOnDeck: Since the Avatar determines who gets placed where, paired up, etc. he/she ultimately decides who ends up with who.
* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Or at least an {{Expy}} of Chess, in their supports with Virion. Though given they're the army's strategist it's pretty understandable.
* StatusBuff: The Avatar learns two of these in the Tactician and Grandmaster classes.
* {{Superdickery}}: The opening Prelude sees you stabbing Chrom with a bolt of lighting followed by an EvilLaugh.
* SupportingProtagonist: The story is seen from his/her perspective and its GameOver if he/she ever goes down.
* TheStrategist: Both his/her starting class and role within the army. S/he's also a tactician though.
* ThisLoserIsYou: Completely inverted. Not only does the Avatar have a special class and is the first true MagicKnight since Judgral, but he/she can also get paired with any playable character of the opposite gender (including [[TheHero Chrom]] and Sumia), and even have kids. Way to go, stud!
* [[spoiler:TimeTravelRomance: S/He's the only first generation character that can marry characters from the future]].
* TomatoInTheMirror
* [[spoiler:TookALevelInBadass: And how!]]
* WarriorTherapist: Some of the support conversations you have with your team members.
* WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou: Like all the Lords, it's GameOver if you ever get taken out.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Any Color Hair]]: There are 20 different possible hair colors for the character. Of course, unrealistic colors are the most common.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Female Avatar as a Grandmaster appears to have some.

A masked swordsman who claims to be the Hero-King of ages long past. He wields another Falchion, a blade once thought unique, and appears during Chrom's hour of need. Whether he's truly the Hero-King or simply an impersonator is a mystery. [[spoiler: ''[[SamusIsAGirl She]]'' is actually [[LukeYouAreMyFather Chrom's daughter]] from the future. A kind princess with a strong sense of justice, who believes that saving the world is her mission. In her era, the world was devastated by the reawakened Grima and, by Naga's guidance, she travelled to the past to stop Grima. She loves her father dearly and is always worrying over him.

[[folder: First Generation Characters]]

!!Lissa (Liz)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Liz_891.jpg]]
Chrom's sister and the Princess of the Halidom of Ylisse. She is a Shepherd and a staff-wielding Cleric. Her commoner-like mannerisms, while seemingly out of place for royalty, make her easily approachable and likable. Although she appears to be naive of worldly goings-ons and sometimes acts like a spoiled princess, she is kind deep inside. The girl most likely to snort. Her birthday is March 6th.

->'''Class:''' Cleric
->'''Voiced by:''' KanaAsumi (Japanese), KateHiggins (English)
----
* ActionGirl: After promoting.
* AnimeHair
* {{Badass}}: Again, after promoting.

* [[BigBrotherWorship Big Sister Worship]]: She idolizes Emmeryn and desires to be a ProperLady just like her.
* BirthmarkOfDestiny: The Mark of Naga... supposedly. [[spoiler:It turns out she doesn't have one, and it was implied that she feared that she's a bastard child until her son was born with the mark.]]
* BodyguardCrush: If paired with Lon'qu or Frederick. In Frederick's supports, she mentions that he was her first crush.
* GenkiGirl
* MagikarpPower: If she promotes to Sage she can become one of the most powerful magic users in the entire game. Sure, it doesn't look as unique as the [[MemeticMutation NUNSWITHAXES]] thing, but still she kicks some ass.
* ManicPixieDreamGirl: Her supports with Frederick pretty much revolve around butting into his routine and then getting him to loosen up a bit.
* NaiveNewcomer
* NiceHat: ''Buttons.''
* HeroicLineage
* ThePrankster: Gets into pranking with Male Avatar in their supports.
* RomanticTwoGirlFriendship: With Maribelle.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething
* SpoiledSweet

* WhiteMagicianGirl
** AnAxeToGrind: Unbelieveably, she can be an ''axe-wielder'' if you promote her to War Cleric!
*** CombatMedic
*** GirlWithPsychoWeapon
*** MagicKnight
*** MusclesAreMeaningless: The only explanation as to HOW she's able to even carry an axe, given her figure. However her strength growth is shown to be rather low.
** RedMage: If you promote her to Sage, she can use tomes along with staves instead.

!!Frederick
[[quoteright:228:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Frederick_6978.jpg]]
A knight serving the Halidom of Ylisse. He supports Chrom as his deputy in the Shepherds and is very serious about his duty. Calm and collected, Frederick prefers guiding others, but he demands the utmost effort in even trivial matters, and often ends up making things more complicated. The fondest of starting campfires. His birthday is August 26.

->'''Class:''' Great Knight
->'''Voiced by:''' DaisukeOno (Japanese), KyleHebert (English)
----
* AffectionateNickname: Chrom and Lissa deem him "Frederick the Wary". The male Avatar also calls him "Fredericson" and the female one "Freddy-Bear" in their supports.
* {{Badass}}: One of the biggest in the game, and that's saying something:
** BadassInANiceSuit: Wears a suit underneath his armor. WordOfGod said his suit was based off [[BattleButler a butler's]]. It was lampshaded in his support with Maribelle.
** CulturedWarrior
** FourStarBadass
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BladeOnAStick: Unlike most Great Knights, Frederick specializes in Lances instead of Axes, though he can still use them and Swords as well.
* CrutchCharacter: Though of the Oifey archetype, meaning he remains viable well past the early stages of the game. The pair up system makes him very useful without stealing too much XP from your low level characters.
* DoesNotLikeSpam: He hates wild game meat, especially bear meat.
* [[FirstGirlWins First Guy Wins]]: If you have him paired up with Lissa.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Not with his enemies, nor his allies, as his trainees can vouch for.
* TheLancer
* TheMentor: He prefers to guide others.
* NervesOfSteel: Lampshaded by Avatar regarding the jokes he gets from Chrom and Lissa. Although he claims to get all out of his system when there aren't people looking.
* NotSoAboveItAll: His supports with Avatar reveal that he [[spoiler:can't stand bear meat himself, despite chiding Lissa for refusing to eat it]].
** Also, his supports with Henry reveals that [[spoiler:he doesn't actually like training as much as people thinks he does]].
* NumberTwo: He's Chrom's second in command.
* OfficerAndAGentleman
* OneManArmy: Just like other Jagen characters, he gets to be this at the beginning of the game. Although thanks to the game's new class-change system, he still can maintain the status if the player plays it right.
* TheSpartanWay: His way of training his troops. Although instead of being a DrillSergeantNasty, he always keeps smiling while being polite...which his trainees find even [[OhCrap MORE scary]].
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Just like other characters, he got a odd alternate spelling in the [=NoJ=] stuff, in this case, "Fredrick" (no second "e").
* StopHelpingMe: Frederick's attempts to help someone sometimes backfire horribly. Of particular note is his C support with Chrom, where he tries to raise troop morale by sticking posters of Chrom '''naked''' in every tent.
* UndyingLoyalty: To the Ylisse Royal Family.
* VeteranInstructor
* {{Workaholic}}: Frederick takes his duties as a knight ''very'' seriously, to the point that some of his support conversations imply he doesn't even know how to relax.

!!Sully (Soiree)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Sully_FE_A_4403.jpg]]
A female knight who serves the Shepherds. She prizes combat and has a daring, strong-willed personality, along with a rather foul mouth. She ends up having more bearing than the average guy which causes her to have lots of female fans. She's known as "The Woman to End All Men", and gets headaches dealing with mounds of fan mail. The worst cook in the army. Her birthday is December 5th.

->'''Class:''' Cavalier
->'''Voiced by:''' Momoko Ohara (Japanese), Amanda C. Miller (English)
----
* ActionGirl
* AmazonChaser: She manages to pull this off.
* {{Badass}}:
** BadassNormal
** BadassPrincess: If she marries Chrom.
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Basilio [[spoiler:and the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BladeOnAStick: Focuses on lances more than [[CoolSword swords]].
** Can gain [[AnAxeToGrind axes]] as well if she promotes to Great Knight.
* BlueOniRedOni: The Red Oni to Stahl's Blue.
* {{Bokukko}}: Also the first ever female member of the [[RedOniBlueOni Red Knight/Green Knight duo]].
* BoyishShortHair
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Chrom.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer
* FieryRedhead
* HotBlooded
* LethalChef
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The masculine girl to Stahl's feminine boy.
* OneOfTheBoys: Lampshaded during some of her supports.
* ShesGotLegs: Virion describes her as having shapely legs.
* SirSwearsALot: Good luck finding a scene she's in where she doesn't swear at least once. Her in-game description even describes her as being foul-mouthed.
* TalkToTheFist
* {{Tomboy}}
* TomboyishName: Her localized name, obviously (at least in English). Specially considering that gamers usually think of another character from [[{{Uncharted}} another famous video game series]] when they hear that name.

!!Virion (Viole/Viaur)
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/300px-Viaur_Artwork_730.jpg]]
A noble from a nation in Valm that was conquered by Walhart. Many would dismiss him as a braggart or a buffoon, but he has the skill to back up his boasts. He's apparently in search of a bride and, as such, asks out any and everyone in his path. Spends the most time in front of the mirror. His birthday is December 10th.

->'''Class:''' Archer
->'''Voiced by:''' Hiromichi Kogami (Japanese)
----
* AgentPeacock
* TheArcher: His class. Also, can be promoted to Sniper, which can gain Bowfaire.

* BunnyEarsLawyer
* ChivalrousPervert
* ClassyCravat: And proud of it too, as he becomes quite insulted when the Avatar calls it a bib in their B support.
* CulturedBadass: Tea and chess are his hobbies.
* {{Expy}}: He looks ''quite'' similar to [[PhoenixWrightAceAttorney Miles Edgeworth]].
** The same could be said about him looking similar to [[{{Xenoblade}} Dunban]].
* FanNickname: Edgy, for the above reason.
* LadykillerInLove: If paired.
* LargeHam: Especially when he's around women.
* TheFightingNarcissist
* PyrrhicVictory: The reason why, despite being a skilled tactician, he never tries to take the Avatar's role. He gets too many of his men killed achieving any specific objective, as opposed to the Avatar's (and likely the player's) reluctance to sacrifice so much as a single unit.
* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Though, shockingly to everyone, his strategy is that of TheCombatPragmatist.
* WhiteHairedPrettyBoy

!!Stahl (Sort/Sol)
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Stahl_Fire_Emblem_Awakening_365.jpg]]
A knight who serves the Shepherds. He has a gentle, trusting personality and is one of the few vigilante members with an ounce of common sense, yet he's still kind of a scatterbrain. His hair is a permanent mess, as if he's just woken up. The biggest glutton in the army. His birthday is June 16.

----

* BlueOniRedOni: The Blue Oni to Sully's Red.

** Can gain [[AnAxeToGrind axes]] as well if he promotes to Great Knight.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The feminine boy to Sully's masculine girl.
* MessyHair
* NiceGuy
* RidiculouslyAverageGuy: According to his B support with Miriel, he is in the exact median for any and all performance data of everyone in the camp. She is amazed by just how incredibly unoutstanding he is.

!!Vaike (Wyck)
A fighter who serves the Shepherds. Quite boisterous, he tends to wear his emotions on his face. He's exceedingly confident and talks himself up in the third person. He is Chrom's childhood friend and the two have a friendly rivalry. The person who loses things most often. His birthday is December 26th.

->'''Class:''' Fighter
->'''Voiced by:''' Daisuke Endo (Japanese), Michael Sorich (English)
----
* AnAxeToGrind
** Can gain a CoolSword (Hero) or [[TheArcher bows]] (Warrior) depending on his promotion route.

* SmallNameBigEgo
* SpellMyNameWithAThe: "Enter the Vaike!"
* ThirdPersonPerson
* VitriolicBestBuddies: His relationship with Chrom, from which Vaike will outright deny it's anything friendlier than rivalry even if it's proven otherwise.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Played straight with his portrait, but zig-zags depending on his promotion route.

!!Miriel
A Shepherd. A methodical perfectionist, she is harsh towards those who act thoughtlessly. She is very curious and loves to research, obsessively studying whatever catches her interest. Has the most unnecessary belongings in the army. Her birthday is February 12th.

->'''Class:''' Mage
->'''Voiced by:''' Yurika Aizawa (Japanese), TaraPlatt (English)
----
* ActionGirl
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BlackMagicianGirl
** RedMage: If promoted to Sage.
** MagicKnight: Mounted version if promoted to a Dark Knight.
* BrainySpecs
** AdjustingYourGlasses: By the sides.
* CreepyGood: Not quite to the extent of Tharja, but Miriel is not above threatening to [[BodyHorror fuse weapons to people's arms]] so they won't forget them, or taking rather extreme measures in her study of magic (see ForScience below)
* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire: Starts with a Fire tome.
** BlowYouAway
** ShockAndAwe
* {{Expy}}: Some fans think of her as a young [[Film/HarryPotter Professor McGonagall]]. Her ForScience attitude, single-minded pursuit for her study, and her confusion when her love interests propose to her make the fans liken her to [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheSacredStones Lute]].
* ForScience: She considers disecting [[FireEmblemElibe Lilina]] to study the source of her magic, for one...
* HotWitch
* {{Meganekko}}
* NiceHat
* ThePerfectionist
* RobeAndWizardHat
* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness

* SufficientlyAnalyzedMagic: Pretty much treats magic like a science.
* TheStoic
** NotSoStoic: She blushes quite heavily during her confession scene.
** StoicSpectacles: RareFemaleExample.
* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: A few of her S supports give this vibe, particularly Frederick's, in which she tries to rationalise why she [[GreenEyedMonster feels angry when he's around other girls.]]

!!Sumia (Smia)
[[quoteright:200:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/200px-Sumia_official_art_284.jpg]]
A member of the Shephards. She is a klutz and feels that she isn't up to the job because of it. She has the mysterious, unique ability to understand the feelings of animals and possesses a hidden strength that most people lack. Trips over absolutely nothing more than anyone in the army. Her birthday is November 24th.

->'''Class:''' Pegasus Knight
->'''Voiced by:''' Ayano Yamamoto (Japanese)
----
* ActionGirl: Although she doesn't have quite the attitude at first, she's confident enough when she rides her pegasus.
* {{Adorkable}}
* ApologeticAttacker: Actually yells "Sorry!" when attacking sometimes.
* ArmorPiercingSlap: Delivers one to Chrom. Turns out it was more of a MegatonPunch.
* {{Badass}}:
** BadassAdorable
** BadassBookworm
** BadassPrincess: If she marries Chrom.
** HiddenBadass: Don't let her klutziness deceive you. Once she gets on her pegasus, this girl can pack quite a punch.
** SubmissiveBadass
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with Male Avatar, Chrom, Frederick, Gaius, and Henry.
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* BeYourself: In her A rank support conversion, Male Avatar said that she's fine the way she is and need not to emulate and behave like the heroines in the novels that she reads. This however leads her to believe that [[ComicallyMissingThePoint the next novel she reads should be about a heroine who's as clumsy and plain as she is.]]
* BladeOnAStick: She even gets Lancefaire as a Falcon Knight.
* CuteBookworm: Her support with Avatar shows she LOVES to read novels. Although in her case it's more for evading herself from her "klutzy" reality.
** CanonWelding: One of the books she reads is called "[[spoiler:The Genealogy of the Holy War]]". The English version hilariously changed this to the "[[spoiler:Ribald Tales of the Faith War]]" instead.
* {{Dojikko}}[=/=]TheKlutz: She gets better later in the game, though. Specially after she gets married.
* DorkKnight
* GoodIsNotDumb
* GoodIsNotSoft
* {{Escapism}}: The reason why reading is one of her hobbies is because of she can pretend to be the protagonist of the novel instead of her usual clumsy self.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Event though she's arguably one of the best Pegasus Knights in the game, she still has a severe inferiority complex due to her klutziness, that makes her trip every three steps.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Cordelia.
* MagicKnight: A flying version if promoted to Dark Flier. Is a flying CombatMedic version instead if promoted to Falcon Knight.
* OfficialCouple: With Chrom, unless the player gives him a higher support level with another girl[[spoiler: or keeps him from supporting with the girls until after chapter 11]].
* ShipTease: She get's a lot of this with Chrom, almost from her very first appearance. Heck, even ''her pegasus'' appears to be a ShipperOnDeck!
* SpellMyNameWithAnS
* StopHelpingMe: Happens in some of her supports, such as her B rank with Gaius, where she helps him get honey by giving him a beehive while the bees are still chasing her.
* ThroughHisStomach: She bakes Chrom a pie at Rank B with this intent.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Grade A.

!!Kellam (Callum)
[[quoteright:225:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Callum_8830.jpg]]
An armored knight who serves the Shepherds. He wears a blank face and doesn't talk much. He shoulders the vigilantes' defenses, but is sorely lacking in presence and is rarely noticed even among his fighting peers... Though he acts bothered by it, he's actually quite proud of the fact. The tallest person at the table. His birthday is June 24th.

->'''Class:''' Knight
->'''Voiced by:''' Manabu Sakamaki (Japanese), Orion Acaba (English)
----
* BladeOnAStick
** AnAxeToGrind: Regardless of which class he promotes to.
** CoolSword: If promoted to Great Knight.
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Sumia, Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* ButtMonkey: His first appearance in an issue of Famitsu was spent demonstrating different ''death quotes'' between classic and casual mode. Poor guy.
* DoubleWeapon: His starting Javelin, which he's shown with in his official art.
* TheGenericGuy: In fact, he's so generic to the point of his family barely knows he exist. He also capable of pulling some serious StealthHiBye even though he's the largest person in the army.
* FailedASpotCheck: Seriously, he wears that much armor and ''still'' barely gets noticed! In fact, it's so bad that despite being the tallest person at the table according to his bio, for ages the rest of the army was baffled by an extra cup at the table, and assumed the place was haunted!
* ImpossiblyCoolClothes: For a certain value of "cool", but certainly "impossible".
* MightyGlacier
* NiceGuy
* TheQuietOne: Literally. One of the reasons most people don't realize his presence is that he doesn't say anything nor makes any sounds (despite wearing that bulky armor everywhere!) when entering a room.
** People probably mistake him as a mannequin in a decorative display armor back at the Shepherd's HQ.

!!Donnel/"[[AffectionateNickname Donny]]" (Denis)
A villager from a remote corner of Ylisse, he has no experience with much more than plowing fields, but is eager to learn and shows great promise. He has a heavy accent and a peculiar way of speaking. Because he's never gone outside his village, he's fascinated by many things. Has the curliest hair. His birthday is June 4th.

->'''Class:''' Villager
->'''Voiced by:''' MitsuhiroIchiki (Japanese), SamRiegel (English)
----
* AffectionateNickname: The characters nickname him "Donny".
* BadassAdorable
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Sumia, Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BladeOnAStick: Weirdly, His class change options are [[CoolSword Mercenary]] and [[AnAxeToGrind Fighter]], making his promoted options [[CoolSword He]][[AnAxeToGrind ro]], [[AnAxeToGrind Warr]][[TheArcher ior]], and [[BowAndSwordInAccord Bow]] [[HorseArcher Knight]] and none of those classes have lances as an option, meaning he has to discard his lance rank altogether.
* BucketHelmet
* ComingOfAgeStory: The plot of his sidequest is basically this.
* CountryMouse
* GoodOlBoy
* JokeItem: Seen fighting with a Wooden Stick. Really. (Looks more like a log.)
* LightningBruiser: He will '''always''' become one of these.
* MagikarpPower: He has pitiful starting stats but comes with a skill that increases ALL of his growth rates by 20% with no penalty. A very blatant example--he's extremely difficult to train as a Villager, but can become one of the most powerful characters in the entire series.
** And unlike many other cases in the series, this is actually built into his character too. The sidequest you get him in focuses on him overcoming his fears of being useless. Heck, ''getting him to level up at least once'' is how you recruit him.
* OlderThanTheyLook: In a support, Donny claims to be the same age as Lissa.
* ShoutOut: He'll shout "Let's [[LarryTheCableGuy get 'er done]]!" in battle sometimes.
* SouthernFriedGenius: Becomes one after Miriel teaches him in their support conversations.

!!Lon'qu (Ronkuu)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Ronku_6814.jpg]]
A swordsman from Regna Ferox, located to the north of Ylisse. His skill with the sword is undeniable, and he has even been endorsed by Khan Basilio himself, but he is usually pretty cold and indifferent. The very sight of a woman, however, gets him incredibly flustered, and he'll likely flee if approached by one. The best at peeling vegetables. His birthday is October 10th.

* CannotTalkToWomen: Despite this, he can be paired with any first generation female, except Sumia, Anna, Sairi, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]]. See [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Women?]] below.
** DoesNotLikeWomen: Due to his [[TheStoic stoic]] demeanor, this is how he comes across to the rest of the characters at first.
* CoolSword: Can become an [[BowAndSwordInAccord archer]] if promoted to Assassin.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler: The reason for his fear of women is that his first friend was a young girl his age. She would be killed by bandits, and he developed gynophobia because of his inability to do anything to help her, always believing that any woman who gets close to him is bound to be killed.]]
* HeirToTheDojo: Said to be groomed as Basilio's heir for Western Ferox, but he doesn't seem to really believe in his own ability after losing his position as Western Ferox's representative to Masked Marth.
* TheQuietOne
* TheStoic[=/=]NotSoStoic: Apart from his gynophobia, this guy seems to be cold as ice most of the time.
* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Women?]]: He suffers Gynophobia due to a traumatic event in his youth. Although eventually he makes an exception with the female character he marries.

!!Ricken (Richt)
The youngest member of the Shepherds, he's practically their mascot. He looks and acts like a child, but hates being treated as less than an equal. He respects Chrom like an elder brother. Animals like him more than anyone else in the army. His birth day is May 23rd.

!!Maribelle (Mariabell)
A Shepherd and Lissa's best friend. She is the child of one of Ylisse's most influential noble houses. She acts proud and domineering, especially to commoners, but warms quickly and is sweet to her friends. Can become extremely rude when she gets emotional. Tosses and turns in her sleep the most. Her birthday is April 14th.

->'''Class:''' Troubadour

* ParasolOfPrettiness

!!Panne (Velvet)
A beast warrior not tied to any kingdom. The last surviving member of the Taguel, a race able to shape-shift into rabbit-like beasts, she is nonetheless uninterested in settling down to continue her species. She is a cool, sensible woman with a strong sense of duty. The fastest eater in the army. Her birthday is November 8.

----
* ActionGirl
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* ContinuityNod: Her supports imply she belongs to a subspecies of [[FireEmblemTellius Laguz]]. (Except her offspring are full Taguel rather than [[HalfHumanHybrid Branded.]])
* DoesNotLikeShoes
* IsItSomethingYouEat: Her S Support with the Avatar implies Taguel don't understand the concept of marriage.
* KillerRabbit: Quite literally so.
* LastOfHerKind: Though she isn't too concerned with the survival of her species.
* LittleBitBeastly
** UnusualEars
* MeaningfulName[=/=]StealthPun: ''Literature/TheVelveteenRabbit''.
* MsFanservice: She is already getting declared this, though she's also the LastOfTheirKind and so has a bit more depth than that.
** InnocentFanserviceGirl: Shows up in supports occasionally, due to ValuesDissonance between human and Taugel culture. For example, in a support with Stahl she sees nothing wrong with cleaning fruit off his face by licking it off.
* Really700YearsOld: Her B Support with the Avatar implies she met the [[FireEmblemTellius Laguz]] at one point, but doesn't see much of them now. Given the presence of [[spoiler: Priam]] confirms Awakening takes place many generations after Ike's games, she's most likely a lot older than she looks, though not to the extent of the dragons.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Because she's "different" from the rest and because humans are the one who drove her kind to extinction. Even though she says that she doesn't hold grudge, she still has a hard time trusting humans.
* SuperSenses: She can hear people's ''heartbeats''.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Carrot stew, according to her supports with Avatar.
* VoluntaryShapeshifter

!!Gaius (Guire/Gaia)
A thief living in Ylisse. Calm, composed and capable, he'll take pretty much any job if the price is right. He adores sweets and keeps about fifty kinds of candy and snacks hidden on him. Suffers the most frequent nosebleeds. His birthday is Janurary 2nd.

->'''Class:''' Thief
->'''Voiced by:''' Shinobu Matsumoto (Japanese), GideonEmery (English)
----
* TheAtoner: His support with Maribelle reveals that he once tried to ruin her father's good name, and tried sneaking into the royal treasury to frame him and have her father put on trial, though he later reveals that he was set up to do it and that if he didn't, his employer would potentially make an attempt on Maribelle's life.
* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* CoolSword
** Can gain [[BowAndSwordInAccord a bow]] if promoted to [[ProfessionalKiller Assassin]], or [[CombatMedic staves]] if promoted to [[MagicKnight Trickster]].
* [[DistractedByTheShiny Distracted By the Sweetness]]: He's normally TheStoic... until candy is involved.
* {{Fanservice}}: Gets a swimsuit scene in the "Summer of Bonds" DLC chapter.
* HouseHusband
* HurricaneOfPuns: All of his Japanese battle quotes use the word, "amai." This word means both sweet (as in taste, since he loves candy) and also describes someone who isn't trying very hard (so, it's used a lot in taunts which mean something like "Is that all?" or "You should've tried harder!") His English ones are in a similar mold, with lines like "What a cupcake!" and "Like candy from a babe!"
* TheNicknamer: He likes to give the other characters friendly nicknames, like "Bubbles" for Avatar or "Stumbles" for Sumia.
* OneHitKill: Frequently shown using Lethality.
* SweetTooth
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Sweets of all kinds, of course. But he really seems to have a thing for honey.

!!Cordelia (Tiamo)

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: This is actually enforced as it is totally impossible to pair her up with her crush, [[spoiler: Chrom]] leading to...

* MeaningfulRename: Cordelia is a feminine given name, popularly associated with Latin cor (genitive cordis) "heart". It was born by the tragic heroine of Shakespeare's KingLear. In the play, the character is unwilling to profess her love to her father, stating "Love, and be silent", reflected in Cordelia's [[AllLoveIsUnrequited situation]] with [[spoiler:Chrom.]]
* SurvivorGuilt: Lost her whole squad to a Plegian ambush, and hates herself for fleeing while they fought and died.
* TheFirstCutIsTheDeepest: She is initially hurting over [[spoiler: Chrom, and initially believes she will never love again.]]

* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* CloudCuckooLander: Has more than a few elements of this, to the point where Nah wonders what her dad saw in her.
-->'''Nah''': What do you like about her, anyway? You're so serious and responsible, and she runs around like a headless chicken!
* MadeASlave: Prior to being recruited, Nowi was sold into slavery, where she was forced to transform and do other "tricks".
* MundaneUtility: In Nowi's A support with the Avatar, Nowi uses her Dragonstone to attack a snake. By ''throwing it at the snake''. She didn't know it was her Dragonstone until she'd already thrown it, but still. Needless to say, the Avatar and her then have to find it.
* InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons: With the aid of a [[TransformationTrinket Dragonstone]] she can take on her Dragon form, allowing her to beat the crap out of most enemies with ease.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: She looks and acts like a little girl pretty much all the time, but more than a few of her supports (particularly with Nah) will remind you that she really is over a thousand years old.
* PunnyName: Nowi sounds like "no way".
* Really700YearsOld: She is a dragon after all.

!!Gregor (Grego)
A mercenary who wanders between nations. He has a friendly and refreshing personality. Despite his mature appearance, he's surprisingly easy to hurt, getting mopey when people rib him over his age. Among his companions, he's the slowest to feel muscular pain. His birthday is January 27th.

* CoolSword
** Can gain either an [[AnAxeToGrind Axe]] or [[BowAndSwordInAccord Bow]] depending his promotion.
* {{Expy}}: Of Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger. Complete with broken English.
** He's also one for [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the Heavy]], since both of them are imposing bruisers with a limited grasp on English, but are much smarter than they look.
* EloquentInMyNativeTongue
* FaceOfAThug: He's a pretty friendly guy, but his appearence often leads to... misunderstandings. See NotWhatItLooksLike below.
* FieryRedhead
* FunnyForeigner: Implied to be this, which explains his broken English.[[hottip:*:Gregor: "Is just, how you say, flatulence? No, wait. ...Flippery? ...Flatness? ...Gregor does not remember. Is that word when people say lies to make other person feel better."]]
* GeniusBruiser: While big and muscular, Gregor is shown to be pretty intelligent. He claims that if you aren't smart, then you can't survive as mercenary. He also has knowledge about health and diseases.
* GentleGiant
* HulkSpeak: Which, again, does nothing to help his case.
* HuskyRusskie
* MayDecemberRomance: Most of his pairings due to the young age of the cast.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: He's first seen chasing after Nowi after the latter has run away from him. Due to FaceOfAThug above, Chrom instantly assumes he's just a bad guy attacking her. Of course, ItMakesSenseInContext.
* StayFrosty: One of his support quotes.
* [[StupidSexyFlanders Stupid Sexy Gregor]]: In his B Support Conversation with Male Avatar. Male Avatar claims he's been having weird dreams about Gregor after drinking one of his health drinks where he dreamt that he was sleeping with his head on Gregor's lap. Ever since then he's been afraid to go to bed. [[spoiler:Turns out, Male Avatar had contracted some kind of disease after been bitten by an insect.]]

!!Libra (Riviera/Libera)
A priest of Ylisse with a calm and composed nature. Constantly mistaken for a female because of his beautiful face. He tends to pay attention to the tiniest details. Prays to god more than anybody in the army. He's... kinda become infamous based on the trailers. His birthday is July 1st.

* CombatMedic
* CrossDressingVoices: Voiced by a woman in both dubs.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: As a child his [[ParentalAbandonment parents abandoned]] him because they believed he was under DemonicPossession and he wandered his life bitter and alone until he joined the priesthood.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: And ''sounds'' like one too!
* EvenTheGuysWantHim[=/=]StupidSexyFlanders: Even after he tells Virion he's a man, Virion continues to flatter him for his looks and tells Libra he's "like a rose". Libra thinks he's funny, but Virion has to remind himself that Libra's still a dude.
-->'''Virion:''' Oh...even though I saw his pure male side...[[ItsOkayIfItsYou he still moves me]].
* {{Expy}}: An androgynous Monk who is often mistaken for a girl? [[FireEmblemElibe Now where have I heard that before...]] But this time it's even more convincing due to the addition of voice acting.
* MagicKnight
* SexyPriest
* VocalDissonance: As mentioned above, he has a ''very'' feminine voice.

!!Tharja (Sallya)
A sorceress from Plegia. She puts the "dark" in dark mage and has a cruel and fiercely jealous nature. She doesn't really care about the feud between Plegia and Ylisse and is often chanting suspicious curses when she's alone. She openly stalks the Avatar (aka you - the player), whose one true love she claims to be. Has the nicest body in the army, and thinks the darkest thoughts. Her birthday is April 2nd.

->'''Class:''' Dark Mage

----
* ActionGirl
* BadPowersGoodPeople: In her support with Donnel she more or less ridicules him, and his hometown, for believing in this, wondering how it hasn't been burned down yet. In the following support however it turns out the entire group became incredibly ill and she was the one to cure them, by aiming a curse at the illness. [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain She orders him to never let anyone know it was her.]]
* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Her 0-1 stat-up quote when leveling up is "You'd better not hold this against me...", which appears to be addressed at the player themself. Doubles as TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou given her [[CuteAndPsycho nature.]]
* CreepyGood: Joins Chrom's party for a somewhat egotistical reason, openly stalks the Avatar, proficient in curses, possesses extreme jealousy[[spoiler:, uses her daughter as a guinea pig for said curses and neglects her]]... she is definitely this.
* {{Curse}}: As her description states, she enjoys practicing these when left to her own devices.
* CycleOfRevenge: Her reason for leaving Plegia and joining Ylisse is that she has no interest in being drawn into Plegia's feud with Ylisse. This isn't because she thinks vengeance is wrong, but because she herself has no personal grudge against Ylisse and doesn't like the fact that she's fighting because of other people's need for revenge.
* [[DarkIsEvil Dark Is Bad]]: Pretty much the same case as Henry. [[spoiler:Tharja is aware of how dangerous a curse can be, however, and Present!Tharja speculates that Future!Tharja didn't teach her daughter any of her curses for this reason.]]
** [[spoiler:ParentalNeglect: How much is uncertain, but Future!Tharja is revealed to have had shades of this, having neglected Noire somewhat to study more methods of destroying enemies.]]
*** [[spoiler: Present!Tharja's supports with Noire however, indicate that Future!Tharja did care about Noire quite a lot despite this.]]
** [[spoiler:[[AbusiveParents Abusive Parent]]: Future!Tharja practiced using curses on Noire, and so does the Present!Tharja as well. Noire's father eventually takes the tools she uses for cursing to try to stop her from doing so.]]
* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire
** BlowYouAway
** ShockAndAwe: Comes with an Elthunder tome.
** CastingAShadow: Since Dark Mage and Sorcerer have access to BlackMagic.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: A ''very'' well-hidden one, mind.
** HeroicComedicSociopath
* LadyOfBlackMagic
* LiesToChildren: She ''tries'' to lie to [[Really700YearsOld Nowi]] by saying her parents are in "far away place". When it doesn't work, [[SandInMyEyes she just goes along with Nowi's poor attempt to not crying]].
* MsFanservice: Acknowledge in-universe. And of course she gets a swimsuit scene in the DLC.
* NotSoStoic: Listen to her two voice clips on the official site. The first is her sounding like a typical LadyOfBlackMagic, the second is her laughing gleefully.
** CuteButPsycho[=/=]BloodKnight: She laughs when using her ''Vengeance'' skill.
** {{Yandere}}: During her Confession, she says "I love you... If you dare... to betray my feelings... I won't forgive you. At this point, it's too late... to think about escaping me..." Of course, this made her a FetishFuelStationAttendant to many fans [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer not just guys either]].
*** This troper got an alternate line during Tharja's confession: "I can't believe you made me love you!....of course, if you back out now, I'll murder you in your sleep."
*** The official site reveals that Tharja has (heavily implied to be erotic) dreams about Avatar after Tharja falls in love with him/her. Tharja also expects Avatar to live up to the promise that the ''dream'' of him/her made.
* PunchClockHero: Unusual for recruitable dark magic users in Fire Emblem history. Never-the-less, she is far more interested in pursuing her own interests than fighting for a cause, which is what allows her to be recruited.
* RedMage: In an unusual way. Her Dark Mage and Sorcerer classes combine standard magic with... BlackMagic!
** MagicKnight: Becomes a mounted version if promoted to Dark Knight, but that means she is no longer a RedMage.
* SingleTargetSexuality[=/=]IfItsYouItsOkay: Her StalkerWithACrush relationship towards the Avatar doesn't change regardless of their gender.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS
* StalkerWithACrush: Her relationship with the Avatar to begin with. Even if he marries her, she keeps some elements of this with him.
* StrangeGirl
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her outfit doesn't leave much to the imagination, though her portrait happens to have her tome and arms blocking most of her outfit.

!!Anna
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/koi_anna_8151.jpg]]
A mysterious traveling merchant. As one would expect from a merchant, she's a friendly and polite smooth-talker. She loves gold and rich customers. She's actually one of many, many identical siblings that include her, Outrealm guide Anna and traveling merchant Anna. Has the fattest nest egg of the army. Her birthday is June 11th.

* BattleCouple: Possibly with Male Avatar if S Support is achieved.
* ChristmasCake
* DerailingLoveInterests: Averted. She's a romance option for the Avatar, which led to doubts about her relationship with Jake. As it turns out, however, this is a different Anna entirely, so it's all cool.
* DidYouJustScamCthulhu: Attempted in her support conversation with Tiki. She tries to exploit the Valmese people's worship of the "Voice of the Divine Dragon" and said dragon's innocent nature to get rich quick... and almost gets eaten once Tiki figures it out. She would have gotten away with it if she had just kept her mouth shut.
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: She has a miniature teddy bear ''attached to the hilt of her sword''.
* HurricaneOfPuns: In a similar manner to Gaius and his sweets, the majority of her battle quotes are related to her profession.
* MagicKnight: However, her offensive magic comes from magic-casting weapons.
** CombatMedic
** CoolSword
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: Combines with StrongFamilyResemblance and NamesTheSame akin like [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Nurse Joy]]. When confronted by the fact that there are those Annas running around the Other World Gate to the other FireEmblem time periods, she says that they are her sisters. So far, there are about 7 different Annas not including this one by looking at their stats.
* MemeticHandGesture: Resting her index finger on her face, like her sisters.
* MoneyFetish: She ''loves'' money above all else. [[spoiler: Even when she confesses to the Avatar she'll mention how he'll be number two to gold and money.]]

!!Olivia (Olivie)
A dancer who travels across the continent in a caravan. She's extremely shy and withdrawn, but a dancing genius with many fans across the lands. She can summon more of her strength than usual for the sake of others. The best singer in the army. Her birthday is August 20th.

* CoolSword
* LastGirlWins: UpToEleven if paired with Chrom. She joins in ''the very chapter'' Chrom is forced to marry someone, meaning you have to pretty much keep them glued to eachother the entire mission, and keep him away from ''any'' other girl up to that point (or make sure all of his other potential love interests are already paired up with other men), in order to pair them.
** StrangledByTheRedString: If you manage to pull this off, they'll be married ''before they even have a chance to support!''
* MagicDance
* MagikarpPower: Her stat growths as a Swordmaster point to this. She'll end up maxing (or nearly maxing) skill and speed and will get ''surprisingly'' (for someone who starts as a Dancer) high strength.
* RoseHairedGirl
* ShrinkingViolet: Not excessively so, but Olivia is quite shy. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] with her title in the WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue during the ending credits: [[ShapedLikeItself Shrinking Violet]].
* {{Stripperiffic}}: She seems to be wearing scarves.

!!Cherche (Serge)
A Wyvern Rider who serves Duke Virion's family. She's a domestic woman, who's good at cooking and sewing, but her wyvern partner Minerva is absolutely vicious. Her aesthetic sense is bizarre and she calls bugs and monsters "cute". Of all the people in the army, she's the scariest person to anger. Her birthday is October 17th.

* BattleCouple: She can be paired with any first generation character, except Chrom and Basilio [[spoiler:as well as the male [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BewareTheNiceOnes: As her profile says, she's the scariest to anger of all people in the army. Considering said army includes a {{Yandere}} and a thousand year old dragon who almost ''ate'' someone who got on her bad side, that's ''really'' saying something.
* BodyguardCrush: If paired with Virion.
* ChristmasCake
* DragonRider
* FieryRedhead: Subverted, as she usually very calm and tranquil unless you get into her bad side.
* NightmareFetishist: She generally dotes on her wyvern like she's a puppy dog and often reacts in surprise when Minerva almost attacked other people. Her standard reaction to anything abnormal is a soft, dreamy "Cute...".
* SexyBacklessOutfit

!!Henry
A sorcerer from Plegia who always wears a smile on his face. He's unusually cheerful for a sorcerer, but also incredibly cruel, having no qualms about cursing or killing people. Has the lowest blood pressure among his comrades. His birthday is November 13th.

* BattleCouple: Can be paired with any female first generation character, except Anna, Say'ri, Tiki, and Flavia[[spoiler:, as well as the female [[SecretCharacter SpotPass characters]]]].
* BoardingSchoolOfHorrors: Was raised in WizardingSchool version one so his [[ParentalNeglect parents wouldn't have to take care of him]]. Implied to be why he turned out so... unhinged.
* BloodKnight: He joins Chrom because he loves war.
-->'''Henry''': Heck, I always obey orders! Well, except for the stupid ones like "dont fight the enemy." If someone tried to tell me that, I'd cut'em in half and feed them to the crows!
* ComedicSociopathy: Henry really gets a kick out of schadenfreude.
* CreepyGood: Like Tharja, he is definitely this, what with being a BloodKnight, being unecessarily cruel, practicing curses, and doing it all with a smile!
* {{Curse}}: His supports with Sumia indicate that he's also a practitioner.
* [[DarkIsEvil Dark Is Bad]]: While not actually evil, Henry is more malicious then the other main characters.
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Non-villanious example, he joins because he ''somehow'' knows he'll be able to fight more if he's with Chrom's party than with Plegia.
* DissonantSerenity: It takes a special kind of insanity to be smiling whilst telling the person you hope includes you in his army that if he doesn't want you he can just kill you on the spot.
** DissonantLaughter: Hell, his ''death cry'' is a laugh, though noticeably weaker than his usual cackles.
* ElementalPowers - Able to wield magic tomes.
** PlayingWithFire: Comes with an Elfire tome.
** BlowYouAway
** ShockAndAwe
** CastingAShadow: Since Dark Mage and Sorcerer have access to BlackMagic.
* EyesAlwaysShut: Even during his Confession! He's like [[FireEmblemTellius Oscar]] that way, though there's one of his portrait (panicked) that has him opened his eyes. [[spoiler:They're black.]]
* FreakyFridayFlip: Uses magic to do this with Sumia in their supports.
* HeroicComedicSociopath: His more unhinged tendencies are mostly played for ([[GallowsHumor dark]]) laughs.
* {{Keet}}: a somewhat creepy example.
* {{Irony}}: He was born on the 13th, and appears in chapter 13, the number typically associated with bad luck and misfortune. However, he has pretty good Luck and November 13th is World Kindness Day.
** Also, [[spoiler:he used to be one of Gangrel's subordinates, but was incapacitated before he could go head to head with the party. His and Ricken's supports touch upon this]].
* ThePollyanna: Revealed in supports. An interesting example though, as he is quite unhinged.
* PetTheDog: Suprisingly when Olivia thinks she is going to stop him from [[MercyKill mercy killing]] an injured puppy in their C support, he calls her crazy because [[HeroesLoveDogs he loves dogs]].
* PunchClockHero: Similiar to Tharja. Though, he joins because he figured he'll last longer with them than against them.
* PureIsNotGood: Tharja says that his power derives from his purity. He is kinda crazy.
* RedMage: In an unusual way. His Dark Mage and Sorcerer classes combine standard magic with... BlackMagic!
** MagicKnight: Becomes a mounted version if promoted to Dark Knight, but that means he is no longer a RedMage.
* StepfordSmiler: Again, revealed in support conversations. Interestingly, rather than trying to hide his problems through his smile, he seems to have deluded himself into believing that he is genuinely a cheerful and happy person. Two layers of it, in fact! (He's masquerading as a Type C, but deep down he's really a Type A.)
* RavensAndCrows: He comes to the map where he can be recruited with an entire flock of them. Tharja's support implies that they are his pagan that protect his identity from everyone prior that.
* TheUnsmile: His "angry" portrait.
* WhiteHairedPrettyBoy

!!Say'ri (Sairi)

!!Tiki (Chiki)
A divine dragon from the era of legends. She is revered as the Voice of the Divine Dragon in Valm. Although usually calm, her "little girl" side slips out on rare occasions.

But [[ThatCameOutWrong the proposal ends up sounding a lot like a love confession]]; [[HilarityEnsues hilarity]] [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday ensues]].

!![[spoiler:Priam (Paris)]]
[[spoiler:A man who can only be seen and recruited through the last [=SpotPass=] Paralogue. Descendant of the Hero of the Blue Flames. He travels the world, seeking only power, and enjoys fighting against people stronger than him. His swordsmanship is first-class, but he's not exactly bright. Surprisingly social and easy to get along with. Likes meat more than anyone in the army. His birthday is February 9th.]]

* AnAxeToGrind: Not half bad with an Axe, and starts with a B rank.
* {{Badass}}: Considering he's got a massive army under his command and is nearly capped in all stats at base...
** As if that wasn't enough, just look at his skills: [[UpToEleven Swordbreaker, Axebreaker, Lancebreaker, Luna AND Sol!!]]
* [[spoiler:BattleCouple:]] Possibly with [[spoiler:Female Avatar]] if [[spoiler:S Support is achieved]].
* BloodKnight
* BraggingRightsReward: [[spoiler: As the final [=SpotPass=] bonus unit, by time you can unlock him, he's... kinda worthless.]]
** This is [[spoiler:'''''subverted''''' as of the second batch of DLC! With the Ultimate Trials and the ones focusing on the BadFuture, and the enemies being quite the step up from the main story (where they were already more competent and powerful than your usual Fire Emblem enemy unit), you are going to need him]].

* CoolSword: [[spoiler: Ragnell]]
* [[spoiler: DefeatMeansFriendship: Exactly how you recruit him.]]
* ExcaliburInTheRust: His [[spoiler:Ragnell]] is visibly dull, full of cracks, and its very brittle hilt is crudely wrapped in bandage just so it won't fall apart. Not as awesome as when [[spoiler:Ike]] wields it, but still an awesome rank A sword nevertheless.
* HeroesPreferSwords: Well, his Sword Rank is better than his Axe rank, and he wields [[spoiler:Ragnell]], so...
* HeroicLineage: [[spoiler:Among other things, he loves to eat meat, just like Ike. Curiously, he has not inherited Aether, Ike's trademark skill. It's possible that Priam is to Ike as [[FireEmblemAkaneia Marth is to Anri]], though.]]
* MythologyGag: [[spoiler:"Paris" was the codename used for Ike.]]
* [[spoiler: SecretCharacter: Even more so than the other [=SpotPass=] characters! While the other Spotpass characters have roles in the main story, Priam is only found through the chapter he's recruited from, and his presence was only hinted by the fact that his voice actor was credited in the credits and that he could support with the Avatar and Male Morgan (if he is the father).]]

!!Owain (Wood)
Lissa's son, he has a habit of speaking in an overly theatrical fashion that some people find tiresome to deal with.

* UnmanlySecret: His aforementioned dancing habit.

!!Brady
Maribelle's son from the future. He appears menacing and strong, but lacks any fighting talent and has poor reflexes to boot. The scar on his face was caused by a violin string. He's a crybaby who cries over the smallest things. Often mistaken for a bandit by his comrades. His birthday is Feburary 22nd.

->'''Class:''' Priest
->'''Voiced by:''' Daisuke Egawa (Japanese)
----
* FaceOfAThug: Has the prominent brow typically used for thuggish bad guys.
* HiddenDepths: His hobbies include chess, brewing tea, and playing violin.
* {{Irony}}: In her generic conversations with other party members, Maribelle jokes that she wants to become a big, hairy barbarian. Her son definately ''looks'' like one.
* JapaneseDelinquents: Looks and acts like one.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
* MagicKnight: If promoted to a War Monk.
** AnAxeToGrind
** CombatMedic
** MusclesAreMeaningless: Has a scary appearance, but his Strength is typically quite bad.

* YoungerThanTheyLook: Would you believe that he's ''younger'' than Lucina?

!!Kjelle (Dezel)
Sully's daughter, She seems just as tomboyish (if not more so) as her mother but has a kind heart and is protective of others weaker than her. Loves sparring, and if she sees someone who has ability and skill she will challenge him or her no matter whom. Hates people who look down on her because of her gender. Likes armour the most out of everyone in the army. Her birthday is September 29th.

* ImpossiblyCoolClothes: Her armor rivals Kellam's, and that's saying something!

* LethalChef: Like mother, like daughter. Her C rank support with her father has her poisoning her father, then the entire army; though he reassures her that she's not as bad as her mother.
* MightyGlacier: Depending on her parents she can become a LightningBruiser.
* {{Tomboy}}

!!Cynthia
Sumia's daughter, she's optimistic, cheerful and brimming with energy. Due to her admiration of cool heroes, she diligently studies dramatic entrances. However, being as clumsy as her mother, her entrances are often dramatic for the wrong reasons. Famous for her nonsensical sleep-talking. Her birthday is May 14th.

* TragicKeepsake: Sumia's spearhead and pegasus.

!!Severa (Selena)
Cordelia's daughter, she developed an impudent personality because of her inferiority complex from being compared to her "perfect" mother. However she's confident in her good looks and is willing to use her cuteness to her advantage. The biggest squanderer in the army. Her birthday is January 21st.

->'''Class:''' Mercenary
->'''Voiced by:''' Saori Seto (Japanese), JulieAnnTaylor (English)
----
* ActionGirl
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Most of her insecurity is from being compared with her mother. After all, if her talented mother ends up dead, what chance does she have? Hell, the reason why she's a mercenary and not a pegasus knight is so she doesn't have to be compared with Cordelia and sets up her own standard.
* BrattyTeenageDaughter
* CoolSword
** Can gain either an [[AnAxeToGrind Axe]] (Hero) or [[BowAndSwordInAccord Bow]] ([[HorseArcher Bow Knight]]) depending her promotion.
* GirlishPigtails
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex
* {{Irony}}: Her experience up tile quote is to find and read a book titled “Make Him Fall for You in a Fortnight”, then reacting like it was a trashy love novel. Cordelia's quote of the same tile is to finish the book and is clearly in cloud-nine from reading it.
* {{Tsundere}}: Type A.

!!Gerome (Jerome)
The son of Cherche, he feels that things meddling with the past isn't a great idea and always wears a mask and acts on his own, but is more likely to get lonely than the normal person. The person who gets the worst sleep in the army. His birthday is September 1st.

** Can gain [[BladeOnAStick Lances]] if promoted to Wyvern Lord.
* BladeOnAStick: if promoted to Dragon Master.
* CharClone: Even more so than "Marth"! It's even possible to get him with blonde hair...
* CoolMask: Unlike "Marth" he has no real reason to wear one. Heck, the real reason he wears one at all is because he thought it looked cool! [[spoiler:He did make Lucina's mask though.]]
* DragonRider
* IneffectualLoner
* NotSoAboveItAll
* TheStoic
* SugarAndIcePersonality
* TragicKeepsake: Minerva, Cherche's dragon.

!!Morgan (Mark)
The son or daughter of the Avatar (aka you - the player), they are always the opposite gender of you. Because he/she has almost no memories of his or her life in the future, nobody knows what timeline they're from. Unique in that he/she is the only possible ''Third'' Generation character. Possesses a childish enthusiasm and is quick to play along with others. His/her dream is to become a tactician like you. He/She moves around the most within the army.

->'''Class:''' Same as other parent, Tactician if other parent was Lord, Dancer, or [[spoiler:Conqueror]], [[spoiler:Sorcerer in Future of Despair Chapter 1 (Male Morgan), Wyvern Lord in Chapter 2 (Female Morgan)]]

->'''Female Morgan voiced by:''' MiyukiSawashiro (Japanese), Nicole Karrer (English)
----
* [[spoiler:AmnesiacDissonance: Taking the Future of Despair DLC into account, it is likely that this may be the case. There is no specific event where the Morgan you recruit remembers anything, though.]]
* [[spoiler:BossBattle: The first DLC Chapter of the Future of Despair arc features the male version of Morgan as it's boss! Chapter 2 features female Morgan instead.]]
** [[spoiler:SkippableBoss: If you talk to him[=/=]her with Avatar of either gender. Talking to him[=/=]her with the opposite gender Avatar will yield a longer dialogue.]]
** [[spoiler:RedMage: Male Morgan as a boss mixes normal magic with BlackMagic as a Sorcerer.]]
** [[spoiler:DragonRider: Female Morgan as a boss uses [[AnAxeToGrind axes]] as a Wyvern Lord.]]
* BrainyBaby[=/=]ChildProdigy: Depending on whom Avatar marries, it's possible that Morgan lost his/her parents when s/he was very young, no more than two or three years old. This doesn't stop him/her from remembering ''studying strategy and tactics'' with Avatar.
* CanonWelding[=/=]ContinuityNod: In the Japanese version, he/she shares the tactician from [[FireEmblemElibe the 7th game's]] default name: Mark. They're not the same, but the name itself is possibly a bit of MythologyGag.
* ChickMagnet[=/=]DudeMagnet: Notable in that they sometimes perform romantic gestures before the S support.
* CloudCuckooLander
* EasyAmnesia
* GenderBlenderName: In the West, his/her name is Morgan, which can be used on both males and females.
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: SwordAndSorcerer version, at least thematically in their official art. Male Morgan holds a sword, Female Morgan holds a magic tome. Whether or not they become fighters or spellcasters is completely up to you. [[spoiler:Inverted as bosses in the Future of Despair DLC chapters: Male Morgan is the spellcaster, and Female Morgan is the fighter.]]
* HalfHumanHybrid: A female Morgan if the Avatar is paired with Nowi, Panne, or Tiki.
* MotorMouth
* NoodleIncident: [[spoiler: Don't think you're getting ANY information on Morgan's past.]]
** [[spoiler:May have been lessened with the Future of Despair DLC, the first and second chapter's of it respectively features the male and female version of Morgan as a '''''boss'''''!]]
* OneManArmy[=/=][[OneManArmy One-Woman Army]]: To the point of being a possible GameBreaker. Actually, a certain version of Female Morgan is arguably the most powerful unit of the entire game. [[note]]To be precise, a Female Morgan as the daughter of the Male Avatar and Lucina. Child characters benefit from the skills and growth rates of their parents, and when Morgan is a Third Generation Character, he/she benefits ''twofold''. Apply that to Lucina, who is the most powerful Second Generation Character (specially if her mother is Olivia or Sumia), and then add the Avatar, another OneManArmy... Yeah. Saying that girl is going to pack a punch is pretty much a HUGE understatement.[[/note]]
* StealthPun: Their birthday is Children's Day in Japan.
* UndyingLoyalty: To the Avatar. [[spoiler:When the Avatar's body possessed by Grima in any conclusion of the BadFuture, s/he continues to loyally serve Grima even though s/he has to kill his/her friends.]]
** MommasBoy[=/=]DaddysGirl: Pretty much the only thing that s/he remembers is the Avatar, and clearly more attached with the Avatar than the other members of their family. [[spoiler:Becomes full-blown [[DaddysLittleVillain Mommy's/Daddy's Little Villain]] in Future of Despair DLC.]]
* [[spoiler: UnexpectedCharacter: The Male and Female Morgans being the boss of Future of Despair Chapter 1 and 2 respectively came completely out of the left field.]]

Panne's son from the future. He's timid and extremely cowardly. Afraid of the extinction of the Taguel race, he's reluctant to fight on the front lines, but will put himself in danger for his friends. Has the loudest voice in the army. His birthday is March 14th.

* BullyHunter: Becomes one in his and Cynthia's supports.
* CowardlyLion: Justified, as [[spoiler: Panne died in his timeline]] leaving him the last Taguel alive there.
** LovableCoward
* DoesNotLikeShoes
* HalfHumanHybrid: His father will always be human, though it doesn't really affect anything.
* KillerRabbit
* LastOfHisKind: And unlike his mother, he's ''terrified'' of his kind's extinction. Again justified though [[spoiler: coming from a BadFuture will do that to you.]]
* LittleBitBeastly
** UnusualEars
* NoIndoorVoice: Despite being a total coward.
* RescueRomance: If paired with Nah. Notably the rescue occurs ''during'' a support conversation.
* SiblingsWanted: In a conversation between him and his father that can occur if he is paired up with him and they step on an event tile, the father asks him if he wants something. He says that he wants "lots of bunny-eared brothers and sisters, a whole RACE of them!"
* SkunkStripe: A rather strange case. He has his mother's very dark brown apart from this, but the stripe is based his father's hair color.
* VoluntaryShapeshifter
* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: In a support with Nah, he seems to think this of his [[KillerRabbit transformation]], at least compared to [[InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons hers.]] He later ends up proving himself wrong though.

!!Laurent (Loran)
Miriel's son from the future. He's a model student, smart and serious, but is easily influenced by those surrounding him. Because he has a good eye for detail, he's able to solve issues with ease. He's infamous for his shining glasses. His birthday is April 25th.

Tharja's daughter from the future. Since she was used as a guinea pig for her mother's curses, she has developed a cowardly and negative personality. She may look delicate, but she's a completely different person when she snaps. She's the fastest escaper in the army. Her birthday is October 7th.

* IllGirl: Her supports with Brady have her reveal that she's anemic.
* MoodSwinger: To the point of pseudo SplitPersonality.
* PossessionImpliesMastery: She doesn't seem to have a prior experience in fighting and just coincidentally found a bow near her. Suddenly, she's a level 10 Archer.
* WellDoneDaughterGirl: Her supports with her mother has her seeking approval from her, as Tharja in the future was apparently very cold towards Noire.
* {{Yandere}}: Inherited a bit of this from her mother, as her S Support with Inigo has her shooting arrows at him to "protect him from other unwanted ladies".

!!Nah (Nn)
Nowi's daughter from the future. In stark contrast to her mother, she is remarkably mature for her age and adept at keeping her feelings in check -- including those about her odd name. Despite being a child, she sometimes questions the intentions of others. Has the nicest teeth. Her birthday is March 29th.

->'''Class:''' Manakete

* BarehandedBladeBlock: In her support with Female Morgan who is not her sister, she's training this so she could fight back against a Wyrmslayer user. She makes it, but then both her and Morgan realize that her arms would be too short to stop the blade when she's in her dragon form.
* HalfHumanHybrid: Her father will be human no matter what, though it doesn't really affect anything.
* PunnyName: When paired with her mother's - 'nah' is [[CaptainObvious of course]] a colloquialism for 'no'.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: In the Japanese version, her katakana can be confused for 'Soso'. Many called her that until it was realized that 'Nn' was the name that's strangely intended.
* VerbalTic: In the Japanese version, she ends all of her sentences with [[MemeticMutation 'desu']]. Even when it makes no grammatical sense at all.

** [[spoiler:ClimaxBoss: The early game one.]]
* EvilRedhead
* {{Expy}}: Partly one of [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTellius Ashnard]], being an AxCrazy ruler who wants to start a war ForTheEvulz. Heck, in the English version he even has the same title, "Mad King"! [[spoiler: After recruiting him via [=SpotPass=] though, [[HiddenDepths we learn there's much more to him than that.]]]]
** [[spoiler:His underlying reasons for starting the war, as well as how he got corrupted by the power he got, brings to mind other such people, like Michalis.]]
* FragileSpeedster: Is of the [[MagicKnight Trick]][[CombatMedic ster]] class, one of the possible promotions from the Thief class. [[spoiler:Which makes it all the more surprising that he's the early game ClimaxBoss, given what class ([[MightyGlacier General]]) most early game {{Climax Boss}}es tend to have.]] [[spoiler:His stat modifiers when he's on your side also lean towards this as well.]]
* [[spoiler: HeelFaceTurn[=/=]LoveRedeems: If recruited and gets a S-ranked Support with a female Avatar, he says he will try to be become a better man]].
* HiddenDepths: [[spoiler: Both Avatar supports reveal a different side to him. In Male Avatar's supports, he comes off as a thoughtful atoner, while he proves to be surprisingly charming in Female Avatar's supports. Additionally, he has a fear of heights. He is also worried that he may never be forgiven for what he did during the events of the game, as revealed in his and Emmeryn's conversations.]]
* [[spoiler: [[IHaveYourWife I Have Your Older Sister]]: Eventually, he captures Emmeryn and forces Chrom to give him the Shield of Seals for her safety. But, [[HeroicSacrifice Emmeryn kills herself via falling off a cliff]] to prevent this]].
** {{Irony}}: When you find out that he's [[spoiler:actually afraid of heights]].
* MagicKnight: Has decent magic to use his [[ShockAndAwe Levin Sword]].
** [[spoiler:CombatMedic: Can use staffs. He doesn't use one when he fights you though, so any healing from him will have to come when he's on your side.]]
* [[spoiler:MotiveDecay: His reason for desiring a war in the first place: Walhart's conquerance of the continent of Valm caused Plegia's memories of Ylisse's destruction to come to the surface, causing Gangrel to start his own unification plan that involved uniting Plegia, Ferox, and Ylisse under himself, so that they could stand up to the Valmese Empire. The power he got from starting the war, and his self-imposed rush to unite the countries, corrupted him and turned him into a war-hungry sadist. The atrocities he committed due to this weighs upon him in Male Avatar's supports.]]
* [[spoiler:RagsToRoyalty: As part of his backstory.]]
** [[spoiler:SelfMadeMan]]
* RevengeByProxy: Starts a war with Ylisse due to the previous Exalt's horrible treatment of Plegia, despite the fact that the ''current'' Exalt is a benevolent [[TheAtoner Atoner]] who wants nothing but peace. [[spoiler: He later plans to excecute her for her father's crimes.]]
* [[spoiler:SecretCharacter: The first in line. You can get him to join you in Sidequest 18, unlocked via [=SpotPass=]. The Avatar can support with him, and a female Avatar can even ''marry him!'']]
* [[spoiler:StarterVillain: Unexpectedly for the ''Fire Emblem'' series as a whole though, he survives your battle with him and can potentially join you late in the game.]]
* [[spoiler: UnexpectedCharacter: Almost no one expected that TheCaligula and early game ClimaxBoss would be an unlockable character through [=SpotPass=], and be the first one to potentially join your army to boot.]]
* [[spoiler:UnwittingPawn]]: Subverted. [[spoiler:His subordinate Aversa is really working for Validar to manipulate him but, as detailed on the official site, Gangrel actually realized this and dismissed her before he went out to fight Chrom and company.]]
* VillainousHarlequin: Has a stronger Jester Motif then even the other members of the Trickster class. [[spoiler:He pretty much loses the "villainous" part when he joins you.]]
* WalkingSpoiler
* [[spoiler:WellIntentionedExtremist: What he started out as before ambition got the better of him. The supports with Male Avatar, and his conversation with Emmeryn in the DLC reveal that he is painfully aware of this.]]

!!Aversa (Inverse)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Inverse_9855.jpg]]
Gangrel's subordinate. A cunning vixen who leverages her "assets" to lead men to their ruin. She is actually the servant of Validar, as Validar supposedly saved her life in the past. [[spoiler:In the fifth [=SpotPass=] chapter, it is revealed that Validar saving her life is a lie. In reality, he murdered Aversa's parents and brainwashed her to be his servant. She joins Chrom's army afterwards if she survives and fights for atonement, ever since she discovered she had been used by Validar. Bathes longer than anyone else in the army.]]

In the Outrealm, specifically the Champions of Yore DLC, an Aversa which hails from another world has gotten her hands on the Einherjar from Old Hubba, and Chrom has to help him get them back from her.

** [[spoiler:MarshmallowHell: Pretty much smothers male Avatar in said cleavage in her confession.]]
* BadBoss: Kills one of Plegia's soldier for [[YouHaveFailedMe failing to stop Chrom.]]
** GameplayAndStorySegregation: Oddly, Aversa uses a sword to execute the soldier.
* [[spoiler:BattleCouple:]] Possibly with [[spoiler:Male Avatar]] if [[spoiler:S Support is achieved]].
* BlackMagic: An actual skill of hers.
* [[spoiler:BrainwashedAndCrazy: Revealed only if she's downloaded through [=SpotPass=].]]
* [[spoiler:BrotherSisterIncest: Sorta. After being de-brainwashed she starts referring to a male Avatar as "brother," since she was raised by Validar and he is Validar's son; she even does this in the support you marry her!]]
* [[spoiler:DarkAndTroubledPast: Revealed in her [=SpotPass=] recruitment chapter. She was once just a normal girl with a power so unique that Validar killed her parents and brainwashed her into believing that he saved her so that she could become his servant.]]
* TheDragon: To Gangrel, most likely. [[spoiler:To Validar later on. Finally, to Grima itself - [[RecurringBoss how the heck does she survive that long?]]]]
** [[spoiler:DragonWithAnAgenda: To Gangrel. Gangrel knows about it.]]
* TheVamp
** EvilisSexy
* [[spoiler:FakeMemories]]
* HoneyTrap: Her official bio alludes to her doing this, but in one of the DLC chapters we find out she (or rather, she from a different world) pulled this on [[DirtyOldMan Old Hubba]] to get at his collection of summoning cards.
* MagicKnight: One uses [[BladeOnAStick lances]] and [[BlackMagic dark magic]].
** RedMage: Can use normal magic as well.
* [[spoiler:RecurringBoss: But you only fight her twice, one being a late-game chapter, and one being the penultimate chapter before the final chapter. In her [=SpotPass=] Chapter, she is instead just an NPC unit with mirrors of your characters + a mirror of her serving as the opponents.]]

->'''Class''': Berserker
----
* AFatherToHisMen: Is willing to allow a soldier to retreat when he finds that he can't fight anymore because of Emmeryn's words, and apologizes when said soldier is motivated to fight again upon hearing why '''he''' won't retreat. He also [[spoiler:gave candy to Henry as he resembled his son, which you can find out about in Henry's and Ricken's support with each other]].
* AntiVillain: [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Type I and IV.]]
* BadassBeard
* [[spoiler:FaceDeathWithDignity]]: [[spoiler:When defeated, he commends Chrom and his group, and [[LastRequest asks them to spare his men]].]]
* FaceOfAThug: Despite his rough appearance and the savage reputation of Berserkers, Mustafa is one of the more honorable generals of Plegia.
* [[IWillPunishYourFriendForYourFailure I Will Hurt Your Family If You Don't Fight]]: The reason why he doesn't retreat himself is that Gangrel will go for his wife and kids should he do so.
* MartialPacifist: According to his in-game bio.
* MauveShirt: One of the more memorable ones due to his visibly honorable characteristics for a soldier from Plegia and because the map where he's fought on has [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MfvY1S-j67k this music]] constantly playing.
* NobleDemon: Is from Plegia, but is visibly one of the more honorable ones, and was touched by Emmeryn's words [[spoiler:before she willingly sacrificed herself]] so he attempts to subdue Chrom and his group as painlessly as possible once it's clear that they won't willingly go with him. Quite a surprise given his [[TheBerserker class]].
* PetTheDog: Telling Chrom and his group that he will not kill them if they willingly go with him may not look like this at first as this is right after [[spoiler:Emmeryn's sacrifice]], but he did mean it. He was also willing to allow any soldiers who didn't want to fight anymore to retreat, and in excerpts from the official ''Awakening'' site, it is revealed that [[spoiler:he saw Olivia and told her to hide somewhere safe from the soon-to-be battlefield so that she wouldn't become a casualty]].

[[folder: The Valmese Empire]]

!!Walhart (Valhalt)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-Valhart_4481.jpg]]
The unforgiving man who forged the Valmese Empire and unified the continent by force. He loathes losers and cowards and sought to unite the world through absolute power. While he holds down his opposition by force, he has the charisma needed to lead a country. Has a strict personality and his manner of speaking is difficult to understand. [[spoiler:He reappears in the second [=SpotPass=] chapter and can be recruited into Chrom's army. He becomes much calmer after joining Chrom's group, and serves as the army's number one vegetarian.]]

->'''Class:''' Conqueror
->'''Voiced by:''' Naomi Kusumi (Japanese), RichardEpcar (English)
----
* AchillesHeel: His Conquest skill negates this; specifically, it cancels out the bonuses of certain weapons against mounted or heavily armored foes, bonuses that would otherwise strike true against Walhart due to his Conqueror class.
* AnAxeToGrind: Has a unique one called the "Wolf Berg".
** WeaponOfChoice: Can use [[CoolSword swords]] and [[BladeOnAStick lances]] as well, but axes remain his preferred weapon, and he is the only one capable of wielding the Wolf Berg.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He's Level 25 when you meet him.
** AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He conquered the continent with force, and he rules it with the same amount. However, his regime is very brutal and harsh, [[spoiler: causing the public to eventually side more with the Ylissean League, Restistance movements popping up and once it's proven he's NotSoInvinicbleAfterAll, the Dynasts turn on him]].
* BadassGrandpa: Well, he did conquer an entire continent.
* [[spoiler:BattleCouple:]] Possibly with [[spoiler:Female Avatar]] if [[spoiler:S Support is achieved]].
* BigRedDevil: His armor and helmet give off this image.
* ClimaxBoss
* TheConqueror: Well, ''duh''!
* CoolHorse: It's huge, to hold up a huge man.
* {{Expy}}: Not him, but Conqueror is very similar to the Great Knight class. It has more balanced stats however, and boasts better movement.
* AFatherToHisMen: He is a charismatic ruler.
* HiddenDepths: Who would have thought Walhart to be a vegetarian?
* [[spoiler:MayDecemberRomance: Can be romanced by a Female Avatar with [=SpotPass=].]]
* [[spoiler: RecurringBoss: Thrice! He is first fought in a late-game chapter, then he's fought again in the next chapter as well, along with his highest ranked generals, Cervantes and Excellus. The third time is optional and can be done once you've unlocked access to the Final Chapter, but requires [=SpotPass=]. After the third time, if you fought him with Chrom, he will join you.]]
* [[spoiler:SecretCharacter: While this is not new, he is the first in the line of unique TinTyrant classes to be recruitable. Other units of his kind tend to be be given as rewards usable in bonus modes, but Walhart is the first to be on equal footing with other playable units (Support, ending, etc.).]]
* [[spoiler: SocialDarwinist: He is one as revealed in his supports. In Female Avatar's support, he becomes rather melancholy as he knows that after losing to Chrom's forces three times he no longer qualifies as what he dubs "strong" anymore. She eventually talks him out of it. In Male Avatar's support, he instead tries to persuade him to become one as well, but backs off once Avatar tells him why he can't share his beliefs. He recognizes that his ideal of conquerance may not be for the best in both supports.]]
* TinTyrant
* UniqueEnemy: Is of the Conqueror class, has his own weapon, and possesses a unique skill: Conquest! [[spoiler:And gets to keep it all when he joins you.]]

However, in the BadFuture's timeline, it was Say'ri that died, and Yen'fay traveled back in time at some point after her death. He can be recruited in the fourth [=SpotPass=] chapter.

** WakeUpCallBoss: His Lunatic Mode version and map serves to teach you that you better have some strategy, fully healed units, and pair them up when you take on enemies and bosses alike, or else you will get '''''slaughtered'''''!
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In earlier trailers, he was named Grendel, but it was changed for unknown reasons.

->'''Class:''' Barbarian

*** TooDumbToLive: ...once the real Chrom showed up, the charade was over.
* DirtyCoward: Most bosses either stay in one spot or move towards any character in range to attack. This guy? The moment your characters get within a certain distance from him, he begins to make a run for it.

The hierophant stands beside Validar and has nothing but cryptic words to say. For reasons unclear, the hierophant knows more about your past than you do... [[spoiler:The reason being that the hierophant ''is'' you, possessed by Grima from the BadFuture. To prevent Lucina's interference, Grima followed her to the past, but the travel through time weakens him and causes him to take your form.

The Divine Dragon who saved the world from destruction long ago, by bestowing man with the power to seal away the Fell Dragon. According to myth, Naga appeared in the form of a human, although nobody is sure whether it was a man or woman.

->'''Voiced by:''' Momoko Ohara (Japanese)
----
For Naga's tropes, see her section [[Characters/FireEmblem here]].

!!Grima (Gimle)
The Fell Dragon who tried to destroy the world in ancient times, but was sealed away by the one with the Divine Dragon's blessing. While the Ylisseans call it the Fell Dragon, the Plegians worship it as a Divine Dragon. According to legend, Grima is gigantic in size. [[spoiler:A thousand years later, Grima is awakened when a suitable vessel is born and the Awakening Ritual is performed. This vessel turns out to be the Avatar (aka you - the player), and in the BadFuture, Validar succeeds in awakening Grima, who possesses you and kills Chrom. In the main story, the present Grima is revived once the Grima from the bad future finally has enough power, and the two fight Chrom and his army.]]

->'''Class:''' Grima
----
* [[spoiler:AttackItsWeakPoint: If future Grima is defeated, both Grimas can be sealed, or even killed.]]
* [[spoiler:BiggerBad: As Validar is subservient to him and sought to awaken him. Shares the spot with Grima from the bad future later on.]]
* [[spoiler:BondCreatures: In the main story, the class "Grima" is kind of a subtler variation of this. Future Grima can tap into present Grima's power, but if Grima from the BadFuture is defeated, present Grima is defeated as well.]]
* BreathWeapon: Expiration.
* CastingAShadow
* DarkIsEvil
** [[spoiler:GodIsEvil: See the Hierophant's entry.]]
* [[spoiler:DivineParentage: Is descended from the [[DishingOutDirt Earth Dragons]].]]
* [[spoiler:DualBoss: Played with, see the Hierophant's entry above.]]
* EyesDoNotBelongThere: Those six red eyes of his? Are not his main ones. The artbook reveals that [[spoiler:his dragon head is actually an exoskeleton helmet, and those eyes grow on his human-like cheeks, below his main eyes, toward the back of his head]]. It's as freaky as it sounds.
* GiantFlyer: Borderline EldritchAbomination. [[spoiler:The entire last stage is fought on his back.]]
** Heck, the only reason it's even killable is because [[spoiler:you can attack Grima from the BadFuture. Present Grima cannot be targeted with any weapon whatsoever.]]
* ObviouslyEvil

[[folder: Other]]

!!Old Hubba
An eccentric old man from the Outrealms; apparently a fortune-teller, but who knows. For generations, his family has guarded mystical cards that can summon the Einherjar--spirits of past heroes. But, because of his mistake, the cards have fallen into the wrong hands...
----
* BunnyEarsLawyer: For all his eccentricity, this is still a guy who can ''summon and control the spirits of past heroes.'' That's quite some power.
* CoolOldGuy
* DirtyCoward: Always makes excuses to avoid combat...
** DirtyOldMan: Like needing to stay behind to watch the ladies [[FreudianSlip backsides]]... I mean, backs.
* FortuneTeller: Can give this regarding relationships from the Main Menu. Although it's explicitly stated to be PlayedForLaughs.
* {{Necromancer}}: He summons and controls the spirits of dead heroes.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In "Champions of Yore 1", despite claiming that the Einherjar are mindless beings that can't be reasoned with, Chrom very nearly manages just that... then he says, out loud, that it must be because [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheSacredStones Eirika]] is gullible and naive. [[BerserkButton She doesn't take to kindly to that.]]
* PhonyPsychic: Gives off this vibe at least.

!!The Risen
Undead soldiers of unknown origins. They appear in the guise of men, yet possess no self-awareness, attacking the living without remorse. Following a cataclysmic event, they began to mysteriously appear from portals in mid-air. [[spoiler:In the future of which Lucina and the other children comes from, the Risen overwhelmed humanity when Grima was awakened, instigating the end of the world as they knew it.]]

->'''Class:''' Varies (Revenant and Entombed are exclusive to them)
----
* [[BossBattle Boss]]: The Risen Chiefs serve as this, whether in story or in DLC.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom
* KingMook: Risen Chiefs.
* NightOfTheLivingMooks
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: They're zombies sure, but they otherwise behave exactly like the class they are, which make them much more dangerous than your usual zombie.
* UniqueEnemy: Revenants and Entombed, the only Risen that aren't zombified versions of regular classes. They tend to be fairly weak, but give good experience ([[PinataEnemy Entombed especially]]) and use WolverineClaws.
* TheUsualAdversaries
* ZombieApocalypse: In the present, their mass appearance paves the way for a potential one. [[spoiler:In the BadFuture, it ''did'' get to Apocalypse levels.]]

!!The Einherjar
Legendary figures from the distant past, all heroes or units from previous games (such as Marth and Roy) in the series. They can be called forth from talismans to serve as units in battle.

->'''Class:''' Varies

* CanonWelding: As these guys are heroes and units from all past games in the series, this was inevitable.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: For one, the very ''existance'' of some of them, like Emperor!Hardin, but even ignoring that, the descriptions of most of them spoil their respective games. (Alm is casually mentioned to be [[spoiler: descended from royalty]], to give one example) Worst of all though is [[FireEmblemTellius The Black Knight]], as Armoured units are ''bare-headed'' by default in this game, not to mention the fact that even if he wasn't, you can still freely reclass him to something with more open clothing. And it's not hard to tell who he is from his hair color...
* OurSpiritsAreDifferent: For one, they're entirely corporeal and act like your usual unit, though they can't Support with anyone. However, they can be brought back if killed, though at the level they were when you recruited them.
* UniqueEnemy: Marth possesses the Lodestar class, which grants him access to the [[RoyalRapier Rapier]] weapons and the [[CoolSword Falchions]].
* YouDontLookLikeYou: All of them use generic Avatar models in battle, with nothing but a hair colour and style change to indicate who they are. They also use generic palletes (blue for yours, green for NPC and red for enemy), meaning, for example, The Black Knight will never be seen wearing black armour.
