* IncestSubtext: a {{homoerotic|subtext}} {{Twincest}} example as their descriptions point out they're a little ''too'' fond of each other despite being twin brothers. The voice acting plays this up too.

* TheArcher: Wields a Silver Bow.

* DiscOneFinalBoss: An interesting case, as a ''promoted Thief class'' is not exactly the standard choice when it comes to {{Disc One Final Boss}}es in the Fire Emblem series. [[spoiler:Also, he's an unexpected EleventhHourRanger since everyone thought that he was long dead by the point where he comes back]].

* EvenEvilHasStandards: It seems as though he was perfectly okay with letting Emmeryn go if Chrom handed over the Fire Emblem. [[spoiler:He planned to use it to unite the continent behind him against the threat of Walhart, though he was ''also'' being manipulated by the Grimleal. Too bad Emmeryn tried to kill herself and survived.]]

* PeekABangs: Her bangs cover one of her eyes, [[AmbidextrousSprite but which eye is covered depends on the direction her portrait is facing]] (her left eye is covered when facing right and vice-versa).

!!Yen'fay (Lenha)

* NoSell: You fight him in a volcano, where hazard areas randomly pop up every turn to damage units standing in the vicinity. While his surrounding allies can get damaged by it, he is the only one in the map who is immune to it. [[spoiler:This comes as an InformedAbility for the playable Yen'fay, as he's [[GameplayAndStorySegregation just as vulnerable as anyone to random lava tiles]].]]
** It's worth noting that Yen'Fay is standing on a ordinary tile, however.

* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: He conquered the continent with force, he rules it with the same amount, and he even managed to [[spoiler:command some Risen through sheer power in his paralogue]]. However, his regime is very brutal and harsh, causing the public to eventually side more with the Ylissean League, resistance movements to pop up, and once it's proven he's not invincible, the Dynasts turn on him.
* AuthorityGrantsAsskicking: He's Level 25 when you meet and fight him, with stats far higher than any other unit you face at this point. [[spoiler:And Level 30 when you recruit him.]]

-->''"ME, JOIN YOU?! Does a pegasus join with the flea on its back? A dragon, with a cow it eats?! You forget your place, BOY. I am the Conqueror! I will unite the world!"''

* ArchEnemy: [[spoiler: Before Grima]], he served as one to Chrom, due to bringing war between their kingdoms and causing [[spoiler: [[HeroicSacrifice Emmeryn to sacrifice herself (supposedly) to stop the bloodshed between Yilsse and Plegia]]]], something Gangrel laughed gleefully about. [[spoiler: Despite joining with the Shepherds, Chrom makes it clear that he'll never forgive Gangrel for his actions]].

* {{Expy}}: Gangrel bears a lot in common with the original and most iconic incarnation of [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Ganondorf]] - a sorcerous caped king from a neglected and suffering desert nation known to terrorize its neighbor in present-day [[spoiler: whose ambition began [[FreudianExcuse with sympathetic reasons]], but when he gained the power to make change for the better]], he became TheCaligula and in the end only hurt the people under him. [[spoiler: Much like the aged Ganondorf of ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker Wind Waker]]'', after surviving his bout with Chrom's army and a timeskip, Gangrel is rather reflective and regretful of his past arrogance and speaks readily of his original motivations to the protagonist.]] One notable difference is that [[spoiler: Ganondorf was driven by coveting the peace of Hyrule - something he fully sees and admits to in his old age -- which warped into {{Greed}} and powerlust, while Gangrel was once earnestly a WellIntentionedExtremist whose good intentions and rage at his people's suffering eventually turned to self-justification and lip service as his hatred consumed him and controlled his actions --]] essentially, Ganondorf's desire turned to destructive greed while Gangrel's actions are driven by wrath. His Trickster class even makes him a ''King of Thieves'', the [[RedBaron moniker]] Ganondorf held in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]''.

* WorthyOpponent: Has this relationship with fellow warlord Priam, to the point where he is almost the only character Walhart has nothing but complements and praise for. [[spoiler: Their interactions in the Hot Springs Scramble DLC revolve around trying to get in a quick DuelToTheDeath between equals, only to be drawn away by nearby Risen in need of smiting.]] Amusingly enough, he's a devout vegetarian, while Priam is a complete carnivore.

* ArchEnemy: Quickly becomes one to Say'ri after [[spoiler: brutally revealing the truth behind Yen'fay's reasons of joining Walhart and [[KickTheDog laughed at her face after she realized she killed her brother who still loved her, admitting that he revealed he told her this to see her look of horror]]]]. As such, [[KarmicDeath he could receive a fitting end by the hands of Say'ri]], [[spoiler: especially if she uses Yen'fay's signature sword, Amatsu]].

* KickTheDog: After [[spoiler: Yen'fay's death, Excellus shows up to tell them that Yen'fay ''only'' joined up with them to protect Say'ri, and then ''laughs in Say'ri's face'' at the revelation that she killed a brother who still loved her. He even admits that he told Say'ri the AwfulTruth purely so he could see the look of horror on her face]].

* NotAfraidToDie: Yen'fay's dying words will never be distress for himself, but rather [[spoiler: simple relief that he no longer has to worry about his sister being in danger. His alternate self will outright state he does not fear dying.]]

* ArchEnemy: Quickly becomes one to Say'ri after [[spoiler: brutally revealing the truth behind Yen'fay's reasons of joining Walhart and [[KickTheDog laughed at her face after she realized she killed her brother who still loved her, admitting that he revealed he told her this to see her look of horror]]]].

* BladeOnAStick: Wields a Short Spear.

* OutDamnedSpot: In his conversation with Emmeryn in the Hot-Spring Scramble DLC, he ruminates on how he was once a good person with good intentions but became corrupted by his misdeeds.
-->'''Gangrel:''' But these hands that I dreamed would shape the future... They reek of blood. And the blood won't come off... My hands were clean once, I swear! ...Weren't they? Or did I just never stop to notice?

* BadassBaritone: In ''Heroes'', TJ Storm gives him a very deep and commanding voice fitting for a badass general of Plegia.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He conquered the continent with force, he rules it with the same amount, and he even managed to [[spoiler:command some Risen through sheer power in his paralogue]].

* {{Metaphorgotten}}: "'Come, reinforcements!', said the spider to... the... other spiders."

* MotiveRant: Engages in a fairly epic one if Chrom fights him in chapter 16, where we talks about why he chooses to work with Walhart, concluding with [[EasterEgg a memorable voice clip you'll never hear anywhere else in the game]].
-->'''Cervantes:''' SEE HOW MY MOUSTACHE MOVES IN THE WIND!!

--> ''"Sometimes those who will not walk must be dragged along or pushed aside. So raise your sword, Chrom of Ylisse, and prepare to [[DeadlyEuphemism be pushed aside]]."''

* FaceHeelTurn: Used to be a follower of Emmeryn, then lost her faith and went to serve Walhart.

* NobleDemon: Like Cervantes, she possesses UndyingLoyalty to her leader, finds Excellus' underhanded nature utterly disgusting and compliments Chrom's fighting skills with her dying words.
* PeekABangs: Her bangs cover one of her eyes, [[AmbidextrousSprite but which eye is covered depends on the direction her portrait is facing]] (her left eye is covered when facing right and vice-versa)

* IncestSubtext: a {{homoerotic|subtext}} {{Twincest}}example as their descriptions point out they're a little ''too'' fond of each other despite being twin brothers. The voice acting plays this up too.

* HoYay: In-Universe, their descriptions point out they're a little ''too'' fond of each other despite being brothers. The voice acting plays this up too.

* WeaponOfChoice:
** Wields the Levin Sword in ''Awakening'' and, as a Trickster, has the Magic stat needed to utilize it effectively.
** In ''Heroes'', he wields the Levin Dagger, which gives him +3 Res and if a penalty is inflicted on the foe he gains +4 to his Atk/Spd/Def/Res and deals damage equal to 20% of his Res during combat.

* CoolSword: Wields a unique one called [[WeaponOfChoice Amatsu]], which resembles a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven-Branched_Sword Shichishito]]. It is a 1-2 range sword, but unlike other ranged swords in the series before ''Fates'', it doesn't do this via SwordBeam; [[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks the weapon itself is actually thrown]]!

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: While much more straightforward in his methods, Walhart has a few similarities to morally questionable, yet not entirely unsympathetic rulers like [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTellius Naesala]] or [[VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar Travant]]. Like them, he tries to achieve an ultimately positive goal and is respected by his followers while being seen as an enemy and a threat by outsiders.
