History Characters / FireEmblemTheBindingBladeNonPlayableCharacters

* {{Irony}}: [[The kindhearted prince that Hector once protected from the Black Fang [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade 20 years ago]] is the same one as the genocidal king that left him to ''die'' 20 years later.]]

* ClimaxBoss: You fight him shortly before the end of the game [[spoiler:unless you didn't unlock the true ending, in which case he's the FinalBoss]]. He's easily one of the toughest fights in the game, putting the FinalBoss to shame.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: [[spoiler:In his appearance in the Trial Maps, Hector's lance and axe ranking is tied at A rank, when he primarily wields axes and, as a Great Lord, cannot wield lances in the prequel. In fact, he ''cannot'' wield Armads, the weapon locked to him in the prequel.]]

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: [[spoiler:In his appearance in the Trial Maps, Eliwood's lance ranking is higher than his sword ranking, when he primarily wields swords in the prequel. In fact, he ''cannot'' wield Durandal, the weapon locked to him in the prequel.]]

* CainAndAbel: The half-sister and rival of King Zephiel, though she wishes things could be different.

* LightEmUp: Has S Rank in light magic despite being in a class that normally couldn't use them.

* WorldsMostBeautifulWoman: Roy seems to think so!

* HonoraryUncle: In the untranslated Japanese script, Lilina refers to Eliwood as "Oji-sama," a former way of referring to one's uncle, which isn't surprising given his close relationship with her father Hector.

* PuzzleBoss: He's a LightningBruiser of a boss who can obliterate anyone who faces him in direct combat, and in Hard Mode cannot be doubled. His fatal weakness however lies in that his [[LightEmUp Light Brand]] only deals 10 damage a piece at range and only has 25 uses before it breaks. After it breaks he's vulnerable enough that any high accuracy unit can dispatch him.

* RankScalesWithAsskicking: He knocks out Cecilia, the Mage-General of Etruria, in one shot. His stats back it up, too; he's often considered to be the "real" FinalBoss since the ACTUAL FinalBoss is weaker than him.

** Downplayed. When meeting a dying Hector, he is geniunely impressed by how strong he was to last a long time against Brunnya and Narcian at the same time. He immediately ruins it by dismissing Hector as "the strongest of a bucket of worms".

* MightyGlacier: While his Strength stat easily reaches the cap, he's painfully slow to compensate.

* SquishyWizard: She possesses decent skill and high magic to compliment her Bolting tome and gate bonuses, but is otherwise easy in comparison to some earlier bosses, especially with her tragically low HP.

* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Carries a Delphi Shield to negate extra damage from bows and Aircalibur.

* WakeUpCallBoss: He has a lot of Strength and carries a Killer Axe, a weapon with high Critical rate, ''very early'' in the game. Dory is basically here to teach you [[LeeroyJenkins not to charge at bosses with no regard]], as well as take advantage of boss inventories by either CherryTapping them turn after turn with magic from 2 range and then rescuing the mage out before they can pull out their ranged weapon, or intentionally making them swap to the less dangerous ranged weapon so you can go all out with your more powerful units. Just to hammer in the point further in Hard Mode, his Strength is almost at its maximum (19, just one point away from 20).

* WakeUpCallBoss: He has a lot of Strength and carries a Killer Axe, a weapon with high Critical rate, ''very early'' in the game. Dory is basically here to teach you [[LeeroyJenkins not to charge at bosses with no regard]], as well as force boss enemies to swap to less dangerous weapons before really going all out with your units. Just to hammer in the point further in Hard Mode, his Strength is almost at its maximum (19, just one point away from 20).

* CriticalHitClass: Not only he is a Berserker (which gives a ''+30'' crit bonus), he has a ''Killer Axe'', which gives another ''+30'' crit bonus, making it a total of '''''60''''' crit. He can and ''will'' kill your units in a single hit if he lands a critical hit, which is why it's recommended to take him down from range, but rescue the unit afterwards so that he won't be able to retaliate with the Hand Axe (which he still has 30 crit bonus).

* PaperTiger: Yes, he has high attack power and defense, but his relatively low HP and resistance coupled with no ranged attacks absolutely destroys any threat he may have initially posed, as it is easy to defeat him by CherryTapping him with mages from 2 range. [[ThisIsGonnaSuck If you haven't trained Lilina or over-leveled Lugh, though...]]

* YourTerroristsAreOurFreedomFighters: While the ''Demon Dragon'' is understandably viewed as a inhumane experiment, and horrifying weapon, to the Fire dragons such as Jahn it is a symbol of hope.

* ClippedWingAngel: For being a TrueFinalBoss, however, she's much weaker than Jahn, and doesn't even have a ranged attack. It doesn't help that by the time you get to her, you already have a lot of [[KryptoniteIsEverywhere Dragon-slaying weapons]], including the Binding Blade and all of the obtainable legendary weapons, which is needed to unlock the last three chapter. Compared to every other enemy in the series, her stats do not change in hard mode at all, and the only real change is a single additional hit point. Justified however, since she was never really meant to fight anyone. SubvertedTrope after she TookALevelInBadass in ''Heroes''.

* FightOffTheKryptonite: The Demon Dragon does not take aggravated damage from most dragonslaying weapons, including the legendary ones. The one ([[NoKillLikeOverkill utterly absurd]]) exception is the Binding Blade.

* PaperTiger: Ingame this happens so badly, that even if Roy's stats were at base level (including promotion gains), [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrjZX8yBKos he could still take off 75% of her health with Dancer/Bard assistance]], due to Idunn being a ClippedWingAngel and the Binding Blade being just that uber.

* SaveTheVillain: It is possible to spare Idunn's life by having Roy land the final blow on her with the Binding Blade while Fae is still alive. That way, once the Dragon Sanctuary begins to crumble, Roy carries an unconscious Idunn with him and survive the collapse, thus unlocking the game's best ending.

* SmarterThanYouLook: She might act as the (mostly) mindless living weapon of Zephiel and Jahn during most of ''The Binding Blade'' but ''Heroes'' shows that, after regaining her soul at the end of the ''The Binding Blade'', she actually went on a journey to become wiser and find a peaceful way to allow humans and dragons to live together, wich is a far more altruistic desicion that the one of the GeniusBruiser Zephiel wich is to TakeOverTheWorld to allow dragons to rule over it. Also, Idunn gets the fact that humans ''and'' dragons can be corrupted while Zephiel believes that HumansAreTheRealMonsters and dragons are better than them.

* DistressedDamsel: Spends many of the early chapters being shuttled from one captor to the next.

* PutOnABus: After being saved from the bandits by his son Roy, Eliwood opted to stay behind in Pherae, as he is unable to fight due to his illness. Following the death of his friend Hector, he later became a temporary Leader of Lycia offscreen, as Lilina is either unavailable or dead (If she is killed at any point in the game).

* PutOnABus: After being saved from the bandits by his son Roy, Eliwood opted to stay behind in Pherae, as he is unable to fight due to his illness. Following the death of his friend Hector, he later became a temporary Leader of Lycia offscreen, as Lilina is unavailable.

[[folder:Marquess Erik of Laus ''(Eric)'']]
->'''Class:''' Cavalier
[[quoteright:94:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6erik.png]]
The Marquess of Laus, smack-dab in the center of the Lycian League. Disregarding his oath to Lycia, Eric chose [[AccompliceByInaction not to send forces to the Alliance Army at Castle Araphen]]. To buy his way into Bern's good graces, he acquired Clarine Reglay by lying that her brother Klein was with him, and offered her to Narcian as payment.

* GenerationXerox: He's a turncoat and a coward just like his father was. And he meets an undignified end just like his father. He lacks his father's hair, though.
* GoodHairEvilHair: Between twenty years ago and the present day, he grew a pencil mustache and... yeah, he's a smug traitor.
* HistoryRepeats: Twenty years ago, he betrayed Lycia and attacked Eliwood outside of Castle Laus in the fourth chapter of his story. Now, he's betrayed Lycia and is attacking Eliwood's son outside of Castle Laus in the fourth chapter of his story.
* LikeFatherLikeSon: His father betrayed the Lycian League and fought Eliwood, too.
* {{Nerf}}: Eric has a battle sprite pre-defined for him, but only for his ''promoted'' class, implying that he was meant to be a Paladin at one point. Interestingly, ''The Blazing Blade'' does this for him as well.
* TheQuisling: Betrays the Lycian Alliance ''again''. [[spoiler:This time, he gets killed for his effort]].
* SmugSnake: He's just as pompous and cocksure as he was in ''The Blazing Blade''. And he's even easier to beat now.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Of [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Jiol]], being the DirtyCoward ruler of a nation originally allied with the main character's country who betrays their alliance in favor of TheEmpire.
* VillainForgotToLevelGrind: The only returning antagonist from ''The Blazing Blade'' chronologically speaking... and he's still a mere Cavalier, no more no less. In fact, not only has he lost four levels, his stats have also atrophied quite a bit.

[[folder:Marquess Orun of Thria]]

The marquess of Thria and Hector's cousin.

* LuredIntoATrap: His cause of death was an ambush set up by Wagner, his own advisor.
* NiceGuy: Orun was a kind and pacifistic ruler who opposed Bern's invasion. He even gave Sue sanctuary when he found her separated from her tribe.
* PosthumousCharacter: He was already killed by Wagner when Roy arrives, so any of his actions come from exposition.

[[folder:Wagner]]
!!Wagner
->'''Class:''' Shaman
[[quoteright:84:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6wagner.png]]
A shaman from Thria and Marquess Orun's advisor. Seeking to join Bern's conquest of Elibe, he plans on dominating Roy's army with an ambush.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: He acts benevolently towards Roy, offering him and his army hospitality in Thria. Behind that gentle facade is a sinister man [[LuredIntoATrap luring them into an ambush]], just like he did with Marquess Orun.
* DarkIsEvil: A shaman and a [[SmugSnake Smug Snake]] who wants to help Bern take over the continent. He has no qualms with [[TheQuisling murdering his own marquess]] to make this a reality.
* InTheHood: It obscures all of his face [[HiddenEyes before his mouth and chin]].
* LuredIntoATrap: His strategy for subduing Roy's army is acting cordially to them so he and his soldiers can decimate them when they let their guard down. Thankfully, Cath warns the group about his true intentions ahead of time, thwarting his plans as a result.
* TheQuisling: Unlike his liege, he expresses a deep interest in joining Bern's side. He goes so far as to assassinate said liege, who was against the invasion, and plotting to offer Guinivere and Sue as prisoners.
* TheStarscream: Kills off his liege-lord, who wanted to resist Bern.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: A visual throwback to [[VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar Sandima]].
* ThisCannotBe: When defeated, he laments that his plans were supposed to be perfect.
* WakeUpCallBoss: The first magic-wielding boss in the game, and the first boss you ''won't'' have weapon triangle advantage against. Wagner is a decent threat to even Rutger, and there's no shame in hammering him with [[CrutchCharacter Marcus]].

[[folder:Devias ''(Debias)'']]
->'''Class:''' Knight
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6devias.png]]
An Ostian knight who turned traitor under Leygance's command.

* FatBastard: A cowardly traitor as well. His portrait seems to be leaning towards being obese, leaning towards being a {{Gonk}}.
* MeaningfulName: He's a traitor to Ostia who had been plotting to start a rebellion.

[[folder:Leygance ''(Legance)'']]
->'''Class:''' General
[[quoteright:95:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6leygance.png]]
A general of Ostia who turned traitor after Hector's death and Bern's invasion.

* ArcVillain: Leygance is the most notable traitor to the Lycian Alliance, having [[spoiler:effectively usurped the Ostian army after Hector's death and sold it to Bern]]. Only with his defeat can Roy stabilize Lycia and actually mobilize outside of the region.
* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: He orders his men to kill Lilina in prison and make it seem like she died in the chaos of battle, to prevent her from possibly rallying Ostian resistance.
* TheQuisling: He sells out Ostia to Bern with depressing ease.
* WakeUpCallBoss: First promoted enemy in the game. On top of that, apparently nobody told Leygance that Generals are supposed to be slow, because he's packing some impressive speed. Furthermore, between his speed and his throne, his evasion is through the roof, and he still has all the defense one would come to expect from a hulking, armor-clad behemoth. Leygance does have the traditional weakness to armorslayer weapons, but well, good luck hitting him with one with the low hit rates in this game.

!Western Isles
[[folder:Mary]]
[[quoteright:77:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6mary.png]]
Wade's older sister. She's taking care of Lot's younger sister Myu.

* CharacterSelectForcing: Mary provides a Door Key to her visitor... unless it's Wade or Lot, in which case she provides a far-more-valuable Swordreaver.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: She's been Lot's friend since they were kids alongside Wade. Part of the reason Lot is fighting the war is to gain money to support her so that they can settle down in peace.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The responsible one to Wade's foolish.

[[folder:Myu]]
[[quoteright:66:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6myu.png]]
Lot's younger sister. She's in the care of Mary, Wade's sister.

* AdorablyPrecociousChild: While she is Lot's younger sister and is significantly younger than him, in comparison, she's still as surprisingly mature compared to how she looks.
* CharacterSelectForcing: Myu provides an Elixir to her visitor... unless it's Wade or Lot, in which case she provides a [[RareCandy Speedwing]].
* HeartwarmingOrphan: Her and Lot's mother died shortly before Lot and Wade left for their mission. Despite this, Myu's a cheery girl who hopes for the best.

!Etruria
[[folder:King Mordred of Etruria]]
[[quoteright:90:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6mordred.png]]
The king of Etruria. He grieves over the death of his son, Myrddin, leaving corrupt nobles to control Etruria.

* DistressedDude: Is held hostage by Bern at some point, to ensure the collaboration of his Generals (Perceval, Cecilia, and Douglas).
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:The loss of his son Myrddin was this for him. It made him so completely distraught that Roartz easily took control of the country behind his back.]]
* NonIndicativeName: He's named after [[Myth/ArthurianLegend Sir Mordred]], known as the Traitor Knight that betrayed Myth/KingArthur and put an end to the Round Table of Camelot. Mordred here came off as more or less a grieving but TheGoodKing. [[spoiler: His son Myrddin possesses the original Welsh name for Merlin, however.]]
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Until [[spoiler:Myrddin's death]], he was this. [[spoiler:Most likely got better when Elffin revealed himself as Myrddin and returned home after the war.]]

[[folder:High Chancellor Roartz]]
->'''Class:''' General
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6roartz.png]]
The advisor and chancellor of Etruria who wishes to side with Bern.

* ArcVillain: Is the main villain of a large portion of the game during which the Lycian League is gathering allies and collecting legendary weapons. His death also marks the liberation of Ilia or Sacae, depending which route the player takes.
* DirtyCoward: His reaction to the collapse of his regime in Etruria is to run as fast and far as he can from the Lycian League, beg his masters in Bern for help, and throw every last soldier he has at his disposal at the alliance to stall for time.
* EvilChancellor: Is the nominal leader of a corrupt regime in Etruria that has supplanted the actual Etrurian monarchy.
* HatedByAll: Just like Arcard, pretty much none of his cohorts respect him because of his craven, incompetent, and traitorous ways. So much so that [[RewardedAsATraitorDeserves Brunnya and Murdock don't hesitate to leave him hanging against the Lycian Army]].
* {{Hypocrite}}: He insults Douglas for “going back on his honor” for betraying him, yet this is coming from a DirtyCoward who [[TheQuisling stabbed his country in the back]] to cover his own hide. There’s also this line:
-->“Cowards! Every last one of them! The great High Chancellor Roartz will not die in this miserable wasteland!”
* OutOfCharacterMoment: He does show [[CowardlyLion a very brief respite from his usual cowardice]] when he faces Douglas in-battle.
-->"Silence! Enough of your nonsensical rambling. Die here!"
* TheQuisling: Effectively allows Etruria to become a pawn of Bern in exchange for power.
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Neither Murdock or Brunnya sympathize with him and Arcard's disloyalty and only provide them a few troops to them before leaving them to their deaths. Murdock coldly tells Galle that it is their own faults if they fail to defeat Roy, while Brunnya expresses complete disgust for their disgraceful actions.
* SmugSnake: For as cowardly as Roartz is, he remains incredibly arrogant even in exile and at Bern's mercy.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Of [[VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar Reptor]], in that he's a SmugSnake EvilChancellor who thinks he has more power than he really does. In contrast to him however, he isn't betrayed, but rather abandoned for his numerous failures.
* VillainsWantMercy: Keeping in line with his pathetic behavior, Roartz tries to bribe the Lycian Army into letting him live after his defeat. As one can imagine, it doesn't take.
-->"W-Wait! Serve me! It is not too late... I shall... absolve you of your crimes... Guh...!"

[[folder:Arcard ''(Alucard, Arcardo)'']]
->'''Class:''' Paladin
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6arcard.png]]
The cowardly nobleman of Etruria who oversees the mining operation of Fibernia in the Western Isles. He is also a cohort of Roartz who wish to side with Bern.

* BaitAndSwitchBoss: He first appears to be the boss of Chapter 12 on preparations, but is then switched with Flaer at the start of the first turn on player's phase, who then in turn switches for Aine.
* DirtyCoward: He turns on his home country rather than face Bern in battle. When the Lycian Army bears down on him, he flees the country with his tail between his legs.
* EtTuBrute: He reacts this way to both Klein and Douglas, fellow Etrurian generals, defecting to Roy’s army. Rather [[{{Hypocrite}} hypocritical]] of him, as he himself isn't above betraying his homeland to save his own skin.
* {{Greed}}: He seems to be the one who profits the most out of the mining operation in the Western Isles, and has absolutely no issue with using forced labor to keep his business running.
-->"I will return to Jutes. Don’t let them escape. Send more hands to the mines as well. I can’t afford to lose any more workers!"
* HatedByAll: [[DirtyCoward His treacherous and spineless personality]] has earned him the disdain of all of his peers. Said peers range from warriors of lower status (Flaer) to fellow high-class generals (Douglas). This gets to the point where, depending on the route, [[RewardedAsATraitorDeserves Brunnya or Murdock deliberately send him to his death at the hands of the Lycian Army]].
* NervousWreck: At least 95% of his dialogue consists of him [[FreakOut blubbering and panicking]] about his own well-being. It goes hand-in-hand with his DirtyCoward antics.
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Like Roartz, neither Brunnya or Murdock sympathize with his betrayal of Etruria. They order him to be stationed by the border of Etruria (Talas for Sacae, Remi for Ilia) respectively, where he'll be the first of the traitor to fall to Roy and his troops.
* VillainousBreakdown: Throughout the story, Arcard continuously [[FreakOut freaks out]] about the Lycian Army coming after him. Here are just a few examples:
-->'''Chapter 12:''' It's the Lycian Army! They come for my blood!\\
'''Chapter 16:''' Th-the enemy is at our doorstep!\\
'''When you finally fight him:''' W-why? What have I done to deserve such a fate?!

[[folder:Duke Nord of Almar]]
->'''Class:''' Druid
[[quoteright:87:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6nord.png]]
A duke from Etruria guarding the Almar Castle in the Western Isles. He attacks the Lycian Alliance in the hopes of gaining more wealth from the Etrurian nobility.

* BadBoss: He forced his subjects in the Western Isles to toil away in the local mines and die as a result. Victims included civilians and members of Geese’s pirate crew.
** His treatment of his subordinate [[DumbMuscle Gonzales]] is not much better, [[KickTheDog insulting his looks and intelligence]] while commanding him to destroy a village suspected of harboring rebels.
* DarkIsEvil: A dark magic user reveling in forced labor and greedy motives.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: He sees Gonzales’s kind heart as [[VirtueIsWeakness a detriment]], saying that wiping out a small village should not be such a harrowing task.
* {{Greed}}: His primary motivation for destroying the Lycian Alliance is to win Arcard’s favor so he can gain more riches from him.
* HiddenEyes: Like Wagner's, his hood darkens the area around his eyes, driving home [[{{Jerkass}} his villainous nature.]]
* LifeDrain: His weapon, the dark tome Nosferatu, absorbs the HP it reduces from its target. This could be symbolic of his avarice sapping the denizens of the Western Isles.
* MeaningfulName: A druid supervising territory north of where Roy previously battled named Nord, translated as “north” in multiple languages? [[ThereAreNoCoincidences That may or may not be a coincidence.]]
* PaletteSwap: Of Wagner, with a green-and-black outfit.
* ShootTheMessenger: Roy sends a messenger to Nord’s stronghold to request safe passage. Nord responds by having said messenger killed and sending troops to ambush Roy’s forces.

[[folder:Zinc ''(Zinque)'']]
->'''Class:''' General
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6zinc.png]]
An Etrurian general in the Western Isles searching for the rebel forces in the peninsula. His immediate goal is to capture Elffin, the rebellion's [[TheStrategist strategist]].

* ItsAllAboutMe:
** He clearly doesn't care about the people other than himself, as said in his battle quote:
--->"The people are suffering...? What concern is that to me? [[EntitledBastard They live to serve me.]] [[KickTheDog Their wails are meaningless.]]"
** When he learns of his ally Arcard’s approaching reinforcements, [[StealingTheCredit his immediate concern is Arcard taking credit for defeating Roy’s army.]] Said concern pushes him [[KickTheDog to hire bandits to destroy the villages nearby and kill any resistors, just so he can complete his mission before the cavalry arrives.]]
* {{Jerkass}}: He is an extremely cruel man who doesn’t think twice about hurting and killing his own villagers just to maintain power. When he hears of his people suffering, he simply brushes them off as nothing but “meaningless wails." [[SarcasmMode What a charmer.]]
* MeaningfulName: It’s fitting that an armor-clad General be named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc a chemical element of metal]].
* MightMakesRight: This seems to be his philosophy in general, hence him oppressing and looking down on anyone he deems as less powerful than him (i.e. The villagers from the Western Isles). He even says this word-for-word upon receiving a command to wipe out the Lycian Alliance.
* PetTheDog: As cruel, ruthless, and self-absorbed as he is, Zinc seems to genuinely respect Melady. When they meet, he speaks cordially towards her, and when she asks him of Princess Guinivere’s location, he immediately gives her information to help find her. Contrast this with the likes of Rude and Oro, who instead beat around the bush with her questions or outright lie about Guinivere’s actual whereabouts. This could be due to her authority as a highly skilled knight and Guinivere’s personal bodyguard.

[[folder:Oro ''(Orlo)'']]
->'''Class:''' Bishop
[[quoteright:93:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6oro.png]]
A cruel Etrurian priest leading a mining operation in Mt. Eburacum. He is currently on the hunt for [[RebelLeader Echidna]], the leader of the rebellion in the Western Isles.

* AboveGoodAndEvil: He labels himself as such.
-->“Evil? [[ItsAllAboutMe I am simply living as I like]]. [[InsaneTrollLogic All deeds are righteous if done in the name of the gods]]. Convenient, don’t you think?”
* BitchInSheepsClothing: He puts up a gentle and polite facade for Melady when she asks of Guinivere’s location, but is actually lying about her true whereabouts.
* BloodKnight: Despite receiving orders from Arcard to only capture the Lycian Army, he sets his sights on killing them instead.
* AGodAmI: He proudly believes that he is equivalent to the gods, and that opposing or speaking against him is tantamount to heresy. This is also how he justifies his many nefarious acts.
* {{Greed}}: This appears to be his main driving force in the reprehensible deeds he commits, exploiting the mines in the Western Isles as well as sending bandits to ransack villages nearby.
* {{Jerkass}}: If even ''[[NiceGirl Elen]]'' thinks you’re irredeemable, that says quite a lot.
* LightIsNotGood: Very, very, ''very'' not good.
* MeaningfulName: “Oro” is the word for “gold” in multiple languages, including Spanish. This fits for two reasons: First, he is a Bishop who wields glowing Light magic, and secondly, [[{{Greed}} he is an avaricious man who partakes in draining the Western Isles’ mineral resources]].
* PragmaticVillainy: Averted. After five turns, [[RapePillageAndBurn Oro orders a group of bandits to ransack the villages nearby to collect their valuables]]. When a soldier protests that doing so could become public and have severe consequences, Oro's massive ego leads him to brush him off, claiming that [[AboveGoodAndEvil he is above any sort of prosecution]] because of his divine right.
* SinisterMinister: A corrupt and self-aggrandizing bishop who tortures the people of the Western Isles for his greed and uses his religious faith to justify his actions. Fellow missionaries [[BewareTheNiceOnes Elen]] and [[BewareTheSillyOnes Saul]] are... not too happy about this.
-->'''Saul:''' You're a disgrace to the church... [[PreMortemOneLiner Punishment awaits you!]]
* SmugSnake: He thinks of himself being untouchable and abuses his position without a second thought. [[AssholeVictim Luckily, Roy and his army prove him wrong]].

[[folder:Robarts ''(Roberts)'']]
->'''Class:''' Paladin
[[quoteright:93:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6robarts.png]]
A Etrurian general defending Oro's mining operation.

* FlatCharacter: He doesn't have much to speak of personality, and he doesn't have any battle or death quote (much like what Cameron and Maxime would be in ''Blazing Blade'').
* PaletteSwap: Of Erik, although with a thinner beard, and isn't smiling smugly.
* OptionalBoss: Exists as an extra hurdle for Hard Mode of Chapter 11A by appearing as a reinforcement if the player takes too long (though he won't appear if Orlo is killed beforehand first).
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In the B route he shows up to inform Arcard about the escapees, but after the conversation he's never fought and seemingly disappears.

[[folder:Morgan]]
->'''Class:''' General
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6morgan.png]]
A general hired by Arcard to oversee Castle Edina in the Western Isles, where men forced to work in the local mines are held prisoner.

* PaletteSwap: Of Leygance, with black hair, a green cloak, and orange armor.
* VillainousBreakdown: He seems rather composed until a player’s unit attacks him directly, at which point he acts frantically as his plans fall apart.
-->"What are you doing? Hurry and kill the ones who escaped! [[OhCrap Wait, you’re not one of my men! … Wh-Who are you?!]]"
* WardensAreEvil: Arcard tasked him with supervising a castle in which innocent men are captured and shipped off to work endlessly in the mines. We never see how he treats his prisoners directly, but the fact that seems to have no issue with this concept, along with how he doesn’t hesitate to follow Arcard’s orders to capture and kill any escapees, is rather telling of his ethics (Or lack thereof).

[[folder:Windam ''(Windham)'']]
->'''Class:''' Bishop
[[quoteright:89:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6windham.png]]
A bishop who guards the Tower of the Saint, where the legendary tome Aureola is kept, under Roartz's orders.

* BadBoss: He uses extremely powerful energy beams known as Heavenly Arrows to try to wipe out the Lycian Army. These Arrows will hit anyone, [[FriendOrFoe be they enemies or his own men]].
* TheBerserker: A curious case where the person is, ironically, a ''Bishop''.
** He can also send his enemies into a blind rage with his Berserk staff, forcing them to attack anyone nearby [[FriendOrFoe regardless if they are friend or foe]]. Fitting, seeing as how [[BadBoss he himself doesn't care if his Heavenly Arrows injure or kill his own subordinates]].
* TheHeretic: He states that he turned against the church of St. Elimine and tried to seize control over it, likely under Roartz's command. His personal motives are unknown, nor is it ever revealed exactly how he attempted this, but it's safe to say that he is ''not'' in the church's good graces.
* LightIsNotGood: A light-wielding Bishop who betrayed the church of St. Elimine and is willing to drag his own soldiers into a [[SuicideMission suicide mission]].
* LaughingMad: Once he's finished off, [[DieLaughing that's all he can do before dying]].
* PaletteSwap: Of Oro and Martel, with bright-orange hair and teal-and-yellow clothing.
* SuicideMission: He does not expect to survive his battle against the Lycian Army, but nevertheless confronts them [[TheBerserker with reckless abandon]].
* TakingYouWithMe: Intends to do this to the Lycian Army once he finds out he's been ditched.
-->"... Very well. [[SuicideMission Then this is our last mission]]. If we are to die, then the Lycian Army shall fall along with us! Prepare the Heavenly Arrows!"
* VillainousBreakdown: He was already quite unstable since the beginning of the chapter, but by the time the player reaches him, he seems to have completely lost his mind.
-->"Perish! Every last one of you! Everything to ash!"
* YouHaveFailedMe: Windam is on the receiving end of this via Roartz, who labelled him as so incompetent that he can’t even control the church of St. Elimine. Thank [[GoodShepherd Bishop]] [[CoolOldGuy Yoder]] for that.

!Ilia
[[folder:Martel]]
->'''Class:''' Bishop
[[quoteright:92:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6martel.png]]
A general from Bern stationed in Ilia to repel the Lycian Army.

* FatalFlaw: His impatience. It was his prodding of Niime that ultimately led to his downfall.
* NeverMyFault: When Niime’s tome helps Roy’s forces instead of harming them, Martel is quick to blame her for the outcome. Of course, this is ''after'' she warned him many times that the tome could ruin his plans. When she brings this up, Martel sends her to the dungeon.
-->"Blast! You made it through this snow... Curse that useless woman!"
* OhCrap: Has this reaction when Niime's spell makes it much easier for the Lycian Army to traverse the snowy area instead of driving them back.
* PaletteSwap: Of Oro and Windam, with brown hair and yellow-and-purple clothing.
* TooDumbToLive: He presses Niime to use a tome he knows little about to overflow the rivers nearby. Despite her many warnings that its effects are unpredictable, he insists. When she finally obliges, the rivers freeze over, clearing a path towards Martel’s stronghold and spelling his defeat. [[SarcasmMode “Too brilliant to die,” indeed]].

[[folder:Sigune]]
->'''Class:''' Falcoknight
[[quoteright:81:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6sigune.png]]
A captain of the Ilian pegasus knights. She betrayed her country once she saw Bern's supposedly inevitable victory in the war.

* AlasPoorVillain:
** Although Sigune helped Bern attack Ilia, Juno is saddened by her death, wishing that the circumstances were different. Shanna and Thea might have also been on good terms with Sigune, as both of their battle conversations seem to depict them as shocked and heartbroken at her being the enemy.
** Upon defeat, she has a moment of introspection before passing on. It appears left up to interpretation whether she is referring to becoming a mercenary soldier, betraying Ilia and her friend Juno, [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold going against her own morality]], or something else entirely.
--->“... Dear me... I didn’t anticipate perishing here... But perhaps... I was already dead... Perhaps... I died... a long... time ago...”
* ConvenientWeaknessPlacement: There are ballistae stationed all over her map, intended to be used against the Lycian army. Unfortunately for her, players can seize them to be used against her. This is very problematic, as she is weak against bows and doesn't benefit from throne bonuses due to being a flier.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Both her eyes and hair are a dark shade of blue.
* IFightForTheStrongestSide: Her reasoning for allying with Bern. She believes that both Bern and the Lycian Army plan on dominating Ilia, so she might as well side with the former due to their better expertise in warfare.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Juno tells Noah that before the war, Sigune always put up a rough front, but was ultimately a very kind person.
* LadyOfWar: As the current Flightleader of Ilia, she has to be.
* RedBaron: "The Ivory Devil."
* RivalTurnedEvil: To Juno, although it's more like the rival expects Bern to win, so she sides with it.
* TheRival: Juno states in a conversation with Noah that she and Sigune were rivals back in the day. It is heavily implied that [[FriendlyRivalry it was a friendly rivalry]], as Juno mourns her death and says that she was a good person.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To [[VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar Pamela]], an antagonistic pegasus knight who betrayed her country and has a rivalry with a pegasus captain on your side (i.e. Juno).

[[folder:Teck ''(Tick)'']]
->'''Class:''' General
[[quoteright:81:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6teck.png]]
A general from Bern guarding the ruins around Ilia in which the legendary spear Maltet is kept, per Murdock’s request.

* DyingCurse: He ultimately accepts defeat, but not without giving Roy’s army an ominous warning:
-->“You have bested us… You may pass… But you will know Bern’s true power soon…”
* PaletteSwap: Of Raeth, with black hair and light-blue armor.
* ThisCannotBe: His reaction when the player attacks him, expressing surprise at Roy’s forces being able to breach his defenses.

!Sacae
[[folder:Monke]]
->'''Class:''' Nomadic Trooper
[[quoteright:86:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6monke.png]]
The chieftain of the Djute clan in Sacae who, after being defeated by Bern's forces, joined them in mowing down his fellow tribes.

* BowAndSwordInAccord: As a Nomadic Trooper, he uses both swords and bows in battle.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: He seems rather baffled at Dayan refusing to join Bern’s forces after the Kutolah’s defeat, even though what they are doing is far from noble.
* HorseArcher: Just like most of the Sacaean plainsmen.
* IFightForTheStrongestSide: [[CultureJustifiesAnything What he believes as the law of Sacae]]. He sided with Bern for being an nigh-unstoppable force that couldn't be beaten.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: After his clan suffered defeat at the hands of Bern’s forces, said clan joined their ranks to attack and subjugate the other Sacaean tribes. He seems to do this less out of [[DirtyCoward cowardice]] or [[MotivatedByFear fear of repression]], and more out of a sense of pragmatism.
-->“If a force cannot be beaten, one must join that force. Our path is that of common sense. The law of Sacae is unbreakable.”
* LuredIntoATrap: His approach to defeating the Lycian Army: To bait them deeper into his territory so his fleet can overwhelm them.
* MightMakesRight: Monke believes that the weak exist to help the strong, hence why he had his own clan rub elbows with Bern after losing to them.
* SmugSnake: He seems very sure of himself and his plan to lure the Lycian Army into an ambush.
-->“Yes… That’s it! Closer… Closer… Right into our trap!”
* ThisCannotBe: He has this reaction upon defeat, lamenting that his plan was supposed to be flawless.
* {{Turncoat}}: He assisted Bern in conquering Sacae’s other tribes, including the Kutolah clan.

[[folder:Gel ''(Kel)'']]
->'''Class:''' Swordmaster
[[quoteright:85:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6gel.png]]
A Sacaean swordsman in charge of defending Bulgar, the capital city of Sacae, under Brunnya's orders.

* AntiVillain: Kel is one of the few bosses in this game who doesn’t seem to bear any malicious intent whatsoever. [[UndyingLoyalty He serves Brunnya out of genuine loyalty]], [[DirtyCoward calls Roartz out on his cowardly behavior]], [[FaceDeathWithDignity and confronts the Lycian Army with calm dignity]]. He isn’t quite as villainous as he is merely on the wrong side of the conflict.
* BarbarianLonghair: He has long, disheveled hair with a reddish-brown color.
* CombatPragmatist: After thirteen turns, he will signal his guerrilla forces to begin their assault and from turn fifteen they will spring from various houses across the city.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: His last words depict him [[GracefulLoser calmly accepting his fate]].
-->"This is the fate... of all swordsmen..."
* HonorBeforeReason: Even though he acknowledges that protecting Roartz will likely cost him his life, he obliges out of a strong sense of devotion towards his superior, Brunnya.
* LightEmUp: Wields the Light Brand, an enchanted sword that fires off light beams from a distance.
* NervesOfSteel: Throughout the chapter, he maintains a remarkably composed attitude, even though he is fully aware that his mission could be his last.
* PuzzleBoss: He's a LightningBruiser of a boss who can obliterate anyone who faces him in direct combat, and in Hard Mode cannot be doubled. His fatal weakness however lies in that his [[LightEmUp Light Brand]] only deals 10 damage a piece at range and only has 25 uses before it breaks. After it breaks he's vulnerable enough that any high accuracy unit can dispatch him.
* SuicideMission: He resigns to his downfall in protecting Roartz from the Lycian Army from the very beginning.
-->"I am Kel. Behold my blade... as I swing it for the last time."
* UndyingLoyalty: He is deeply loyal to Brunnya, to the point where he doesn’t blame her for tasking him with defending [[DirtyCoward a cowardly noble like Roartz]]. Instead, he empathizes with her having no choice but to do so, since Etruria and Bern are meant to be on equal terms.
-->"General Brunnya has given me orders to protect you. I will do so with my life."

[[folder:Thoril, Brakul, Kudoka, Maral, Kabul and Chan]]
->'''Class:''' Nomadic Trooper (Thoril, Kudoka, Kabul), Druid (Brakul, Maral, Chan)
[[quoteright:87:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6thoril.png]]

The remaining leaders of the Djute clan seeking revenge for their fellow tribesmen and to protect the divine bow Mulagir.

* CastingAShadow: Brakul, Maral and Chan are dark magic-wielding Druids. Brakul and Maral wields Fenrir, while Chan uses Nosferatu.
* HorseArcher: Thoril, Kudoka and Kabul are Nomadic Troopers. The only difference between them are their secondary sword weapons (Silver Sword, Lancereaver and Kiling Edge, respectively).
* PaletteSwap: Their portraits resemble Monke's, but with light blue clothes and white hair.
* StatusEffects: The Druids are equipped with status staves: Brakul has a Berserk staff, Marral has a Sleep staff, and Chan has a Silence staff.
* WolfpackBoss: You might have to potentially deal with all six of them while trying to seize the gates if you're very unlucky, as five of which are a trap that summons reinforcements to surround your units, and only one of them is the real seize condition that ends the map.
* YouAllLookFamiliar: They all have identical portraits and palette.

!Bern
[[folder:Rude ''(Ruud)'']]
->'''Class:''' Knight
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6_rude_6.png]]

A seemingly spineless and actually treacherous knight in command of a fort on the Bern - Lycia border.

* BodyguardBetrayal: Imprisons his country's princess when she stops at his fortress, and plans to sell her out to Bern's enemies.
* {{Greed}}: His main motivation, and what he attributes his death to.
* {{Irony}}: His chapter is dripping with it. Most notably, his army ends up fighting against the Lycian forces he planned to bargain with when Elen finds them first.
* PoorCommunicationKills: Roy only sees a minor villain menacing two women, and never finds out what Rude was actually trying to do.
* WrongGenreSavvy: He thought that he would be rewarded for treachery. Instead he is killed because he acted like a villain while a hero was in the vicinity.

[[folder:Slater ''(Slayder)'']]
->'''Class:''' Knight
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6slater.png]]
A knight left in charge of Castle Araphen by Narcian.

* ExtremeDoormat: He doesn't take issue with Narcian [[BadBoss outright dumping his responsibilities onto him just because he can]]. Namely, he assigns Slater with defending Castle Araphen while he flies off to enjoy his "gift" (Clarine) waiting for him at Bern.
* FreakOut: Becomes fearful after Narcian threatens to personally eviscerate him.
-->[[NervousWreck "I-I can't fail! If I do... ...What awaits me...is a fate worse than death...!!"]]
* WarmUpBoss: Your first opponent to sit on a throne, providing him a '''hefty''' 30 points of Avoid.
* YesMan: He seems to act this way towards his superior Narcian. The latter takes advantage of this and toys with him [[KickTheDog by threatening his life, laughing at]] [[NervousWreck the blubbering mess that results]].

[[folder:Flaer]]
->'''Class:''' Wyvern Lord
[[quoteright:93:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6flaer.png]]
A Bernese knight meddling in Etruria's politics surrounding the Western Isles and Narcian's lieutenant.

* BaitAndSwitchBoss: Is the subject of this several times, relieving a boss from his post on the throne (Arcard), leaving somebody else in charge (Aine), and finally [[spoiler:being dumped into the fray when the battle is going badly and his commander (Narcian) leaves]]. He's only fought once, though.
* TheCorrupter: One of possibly many in Bern's political conspiracy in Etruria.
* YouHaveFailedMe: He's the scapegoat for Narcian's failure to defeat Roy in Etruria. Ultimately, he allows Roy to dispatch him rather than face Narcian after he fails again.

[[folder:Randy]]
->'''Class:''' Hero
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6randy.png]]
A mercenary leader who leads the assault on Arcadia.

* BloodKnight: He likes to fight and is more than happy to fall fighting anyone as strong as him.
* BadassBoast: Involving the Light Brand of all things!
-->'''Randy:''' My sword is unmatchable. Choose your death. Will you die by the blade...or by its light?
* GracefulLoser: He dies happy he could face someone powerful.
* PaletteSwap: Of Henning, albeit with red-colored shoulder plate and bandana.

[[folder:Ohtz ''(Oates)'']]
->'''Class:''' Sage
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6ohtz.png]]
A lieutenant in Bern's army who leads the assault on Arcadia, looking for the Divine Anima tome Forblaze.

* LongRangeFighter: Uses Bolting to snipe foes over a long distance.
* PlayingWithFire: He is equipped with Elfire when engaged in close-range combat.
* ShockAndAwe: The Bolting tome he comes with fires off lightning.
* WakeUpCallBoss: Ohtz and his sagacious companion are the first enemies in the game with straightforward long-range magic. Unlike the Sleep Staff in Chapters 12, 12x, and 14, Bolting does damage with a fixed (though huge) range; and unlike the Eclipse Tome in Chapters 12 and 12x, Bolting has a good chance to hit.
* WizardBeard: A long white beard fitting for an elderly sage.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: His appearance is that of an old bearded wizard, but shares the same battle sprites as the generic Sages, who look a ''lot'' younger.

[[folder:Raeth ''(Raith)'']]
->'''Class:''' Paladin
[[quoteright:83:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6raeth.png]]
A Bernese commander defending a fort bordering Etruria. He captures Fae and holds her in his fortress.

* JavelinThrower: Wields a Spear in battle, giving him a ranged option.
* OffstageVillainy: In his chapter, Raeth isn't ''that'' bad of a guy; Fae wandered right up to his castle with a Dragonstone, and his opposition to Roy's forces is thus thrust upon him. However, a village in his chapter notes that he also took their Bishop for curiosity's sake, and never returned him.

[[folder:Pereth ''(Peres)'']]
->'''Class:''' Druid
[[quoteright:91:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6pereth.png]]
One of Murdock's best lieutenants in charge of guarding the Shrine of Seals and the dark tome Apocalypse residing in it, following Murdock's death. Appears in Chapter 21x if it's unlocked, or Chapter 21 if the player fails the Gaiden chapter's requirement of 15 turns.

* CastingAShadow: A Druid serving as a leader of Bern troops that is tasked to retrieve the dark tome Apocalypse. By his class of Druid, he coincidentally uses dark magic as well.
* DarknessEqualsDeath: His death quote says that he's being consumed by darkness.
-->"Darkness...I am being consumed by darkness..."
* LifeDrain: Uses a Nosferatu tome as his only weapon.
* PaletteSwap: Of Ohtz, albeit with darker colors and a black WizardBeard, indicating his appearance as a Druid.

!Bandits
[[folder:Damas]]
->'''Class:''' Fighter
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6damas.png]]
A bandit leader from the Bolm Mountains that lead his gang to sack Pherae.

* OpportunisticBastard: Marquess Eliwood of Pherae has fallen ill, and all of Lycia is preoccupied with an upcoming war... Perfect distractions while Damas and his group pillage as they please.
* RecurringElement: As is tradition in Fire Emblem games, the first boss of ''The Binding Blade'' is:
** A Bandit
** Unable to attack at range
** Possessing a Steel Axe ([[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness though this game is the last instance of that]])
* StarterVillain: He's the first named enemy you mow down in the game.
* WarmUpBoss: He's not particularly difficult, so long as you don't do anything stupid.

[[folder:Dory]]
->'''Class:''' Brigand
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6dory.png]]
A bandit leader leading a raid on the countryside of Lycia.

* CoveredInScars: His in-game portrait shows quite a few, but his most distinctive one is the horizontal cut across his forehead.
* WakeUpCallBoss: He has a lot of Strength and carries a Killer Axe, a weapon with high Critical rate, ''very early'' in the game. Dory is basically here to teach you [[LeeroyJenkins not to charge at bosses with no regard]], as well as force boss enemies to swap to less dangerous weapons before really going all out with your units. Just to hammer in the point further in Hard Mode, his Strength is almost at its maximum (19, just one point away from 20).

[[folder:Henning]]
->'''Class:''' Hero
[[quoteright:93:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6henning.png]]
A bandit leader attempting to loot Durandal, the Blazing Blade, from its resting place.

* LightningBruiser: Tough, powerful, and ''blisteringly fast''.
* MultiMeleeMaster: He has a Steel Blade for highly-damaging close range combat, and a Hand Axe to strike back anyone who tries to strike him at range.

[[folder:Scott]]
->'''Class:''' Berserker
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6scott.png]]
A bandit leader plundering the villages in the Western Isles.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: He treats Fir kindly and tells her that the Lycian Army is full of bandits attacking the Western Isles. This is just a ruse to get her killed so he can get ahold of her rare sword, the Wo Dao, and sell it for a hefty price.
* CriticalHitClass: Not only he is a Berserker (which gives a ''+30'' crit bonus), he has a ''Killer Axe'', which gives another ''+30'' crit bonus, making it a total of '''''60''''' crit. He can and ''will'' kill your units in a single hit if he lands a critical hit, which is why it's recommended to take him down from range, but rescue the unit afterwards so that he won't be able to retaliate with the Hand Axe (which he still has 30 crit bonus).

[[folder:Scouran ''(Scollan)'']]
->'''Class:''' Brigand
[[quoteright:89:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6scouran.png]]
A bandit leader sent to plunder the villages under Zinc's orders.

* BadBoss: He treats [[DumbMuscle Gonzales]] poorly, harshly commanding him to destroy a village while mocking his looks and intelligence.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Just like Nord, he sees Gonzales’s compassion as [[VirtueIsWeakness a weakness]], saying that crushing one village is hardly anything to fret over.
* {{Greed}}: As Scouran is tasked with burning down some villages, he immediately asks if he and his group can keep the treasures they find. Zinc permits it.
* MiniBoss: He appears four turns into the chapter, with Zinc still serving as the main boss. In fact, he's of a lower level than some of the other enemy units on the map. His only purpose is to destroy villages, provided the player doesn't reach them in time.

[[folder:Gelero ''(Grero, Guerrero)'']]
->'''Class:''' Berserker
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6gelero.png]]
A bandit leader hired by Bern to bury the entrance to Armads, but has plans for the axe itself.

* BoxedCrook: One of his henchmen mentions that if they fail at their job, they'll be "back in chains," implying he was ordered to bury Armads in lieu of whatever sentence his banditry had earned him.
* DumbMuscle: Very strong and just as dumb.
* {{Gonk}}: Just like Scott.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Initially, he doesn't look all that intimidating and has a manner of speaking that switches between slow, slurring speech and [[ScreamingWarrior inarticulate screaming]]. His critical attack, however, will likely ''annihilate'' anyone in his way, especially if it comes from his Silver Axe.
* PaletteSwap: Of Scott, with a lighter shade of hair and a gray vest.
* ScreamingWarrior: ''“Daaaahhhhhh! Rah!”'' are his choice of words as boss quote.
* SpannerInTheWorks: His job was to bury the cave entrance to Armads, preventing Roy's army from getting it. Gelero instead decides to try and steal it, since he reasons that his job was just to bury the cave entrance, so who cares what happens to the axe?
* VerbalTic: He has a weird way of speaking by prolonging his woooooords liiikeeeee thiiiis.

[[folder:Maggie & Rose]]
->'''Class:''' Berserker
[[quoteright:208:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6maggierose.png]]
The two bandit twins in the Nabata Desert.

* BossInMookClothing: They basically function like generic reinforcements, but each of them have stats that equal that of their chapter's actual boss.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}s: One gets the impression that they've been out in the sun a little too long.
-->'''Rose:''' Maggie, my sweet, did you see that group heading right into the desert?\\
'''Maggie:''' Yes, Rose, I most certainly did.
* {{Gonk}}: Their design is... Unique, shall we say.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: As goofy as they (and their {{Expies}}) might seem, Maggie and Rose are both dangerous Berserkers that are more than capable of wiping out any unprepared unit left behind during the chapter.
* PaletteSwap: Again of Scott, although similar-looking characters from later games take influence from these two rather than Scott himself.
* RunningGag: The rather low-key debut of the creepy, {{Gonk}}-y bandit twin characters.
* ZergRush: When they suddenly appear somewhere in the [[FogOfWar sandstorm]], they bring with them a ridiculous horde of mooks that slowly creep up from behind.

!Dragons
[[folder:Aine ''(Ain, Ein)'']]
->'''Class:''' Manakete
[[quoteright:100:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fe6ain.png]]
The first of Bern's Manaketes that Roy's army encounters. Flaer leaves him behind as a nasty surprise to the forces that are storming Arcard's mansion.

* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: To say the least of what ''Hasha no Tsurugi'' did to crank the spectacle of his fight up.
* BaitAndSwitchBoss: Is the ''third'' and last boss to take a seat on the throne in Chapter 12, as he is deployed to replace Flaer at the start of the first enemy phase (who replaces Arcado after battle preparations).
* FlatCharacter: [[JustifiedTrope Justified.]] He's heavily implied to be a War Dragon [[spoiler:artificially created by Idunn]], and thus he's barely even sentient.
* FlatWhat: His death quote.
--> "...''What''...?!"
* KillItWithFire: It doesn't get more to the point than this battle quote:
--> "...''Burn''."
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: In this case, he's a War Dragon, a barely sentient fire-breathing dragon.
* PaperTiger: Yes, he has high attack power and defense, but his relatively low HP and resistance coupled with no ranged attacks absolutely destroys any threat he may have initially posed, as it is easy to defeat him by CherryTapping him with mages from 2 range. [[ThisIsGonnaSuck If you haven't trained Lilina or over-leveled Lugh, though...]]
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Has red eyes, which makes him look tough and menacing... or so it seems.
* RoboSpeak: Outside of translation, his speech text is in katakana, evoking this trope.
* UncannyValley: Ain's almost non-existing personality makes him pass as such, because all he says is one-word lines and only seems to care about killing anyone that gets in his way, which explains why he is lacking in any sort of personality, which is what a normal manakete should have. [[spoiler:This is due to the fact that he is actually a war dragon, being the first one Roy encounters.]] As a result, he just comes off as nothing more than a soulless husk, to the point that even a soldier in Juteaux is afraid of him.
-> '''Soldier''': “The reinforcements from the south will arrive shortly!”
-> '''Aine''': “……”
-> '''Soldier''': “…Th-That’s all, sir.”
-> '''Soldier''': “That guy scares me…”

[[folder:Jahn ''(Yahn)'']]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jahn.png]]
->'''Class:''' Manakete

A mysterious stranger who's watching over an ancient shrine in the mountains of Bern.

* AboveGoodAndEvil: According to Jahn, dragons (or at least Fire Dragons) are above such notions such as hatred and revenge.
* BigBadDuumvirate: [[spoiler:He's been assisting Zephiel with matters pertaining to Idunn, including explaining her "purpose" to him. By extension, he facilitated all the bloodshed in the game.]]
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: He claims that dragons' and humans' minds inherently work differently. Whether this is true or not, however, [[spoiler:even he was given pause when Zephiel explained his intent to [[MisanthropeSupreme subjugate the human race in favor of the dragons]]. Jahn decides to roll with it regardless of Zephiel's trustworthiness.]]
* TheCameo: In ''The Blazing Blade'' [[spoiler:during TheStinger]].
* ClimaxBoss: The penultimate boss of the True Ending path, outliving [[spoiler:King Zephiel]] by a couple of chapters.
* DragonAscendant: Pun aside, Jahn was an aide of the long deceased Dragon King in the Scouring who survived into modern times.
* DumbassHasAPoint: Not him personally, but he considers the humans' decision to seal the Legendary Weapons away after they caused the Ending Winter to be uncharacteristically wise of them.
* EmotionlessBoy: By the standards of humans, Jahn is downright robotic; however, he doesn't admit to not having emotions outright, but rather simply not having them as strongly as humans.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Doesn't understand why Hartmut chose to spare Idunn, as Jahn would never let a threat to himself live.
* EvilRedhead: Ammoral Redhead is more like it, but close enough.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: Jahn calmly remarks that the humans have won again as he dies.
-->"I fall... Humans are truly unpredictable..."
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: Subverted, despite telling Roy about the humans' questionable deeds such as using reality-warping weapons, and taking full advantage of the dragons' weak manakete form, Jahn believes humanity won the battle of the species fair and square.
* ItIsDehumanizing: [[spoiler: Roy refers to Idunn with female pronouns, Jahn refers to her as an "it," since he sees her as nothing but a weapon]].
* KickTheDog: [[spoiler: Even though it was to survive, mentally breaking a neutral dragon girl to forcibly use as a weapon is pretty horrible]].
* KillItWithFire: Something he's quite good at.
* LastOfHisKind: The last Fire Dragon left. [[spoiler:On Elibe.]]
* {{Leitmotif}}: "The Last Dragon".
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: [[spoiler:The prequel reveals dragons weren't entirely wiped out and many survivors left for the other world beyond the Dragon's gate once it was clear the war was lost. As Jahn fell during the DecisiveBattle of the Scouring and then was sealed with the temple, he is unaware of other surviving Fire Dragons and the escape plan. Though even if Jahn knew, the Dragon's Gate was closed permanently before he was unsealed.]]
* TheManBehindTheMan: He's the true architect behind Zephiel's ambition.
* MrExposition: His purpose (mostly) is to [[InfoDump explain the story of The Scouring]] and then be a boss fight.
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: A Fire Dragon.
* ObviousVillainSecretVillain: [[spoiler: It's obvious that Zephiel is the BigBad. That he's working with another HiddenVillain isn't]].
* PaperTiger: There's only so much his stout defenses can do to prevent being ripped apart by the Divine Weapons.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: And a participant in The Scouring. [[spoiler:He's spent all the time since then holed up in Bern's Dragon Shrine, healing his wounds.]]
* TheRemnant: The last of the Fire Dragons and the only survivor of the Scouring.
* TheTrickster: Decides to explain The Scouring to Roy... if he proves worthy. This entails [[FakeLongevity making him tediously seize 6 thrones in a row on a linear path]].
* TheUnseen: Becomes this if you missed or used up one of the Legendary Weapons or if Fae dies; the game instead ends with the battle against Zephiel, and he never reveals his hand in the game's events.
* WalkingSpoiler: Jahn only shows up in two of the last three chapters and delivers some heavy backstory exposition. All of which can potentially be missed if the player gets the bad ending.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: On another level entirely, he makes no appearances whatsoever in ''Hasha no Tsurugi'' (further explanation below).
* WorthyOpponent: Views humanity as such, not even having any hard feelings about the whole wiping his species out of existence.
-->"Hate? Only humans feel such preposterous emotions. We battled for survival and we lost. There was nothing more to our fight."
* YourTerroristsAreOurFreedomFighters: While the ''Demon Dragon'' is understandably viewed as a inhumane experiment, and horrifying weapon, to the Fire dragons such as Jahn it is a symbol of hope.

'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RisaTaneda (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Minae Noji (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'', Uncredited for her regular and Spring variant)

A strange cloaked girl who is always lurking at Zephiel's side, and controls Bern's Manaketes. It's eventually deduced that she's the infamous Demon Dragon described in lore of The Scouring, whose defeat by Hartmut ended the war.

The truth of the matter is far more disturbing.

* AntiArmor: All of her exclusive weapons in ''Heroes'' deals effective damage against Armor units.
* AntiVillain: She's just a puppet with Zephiel pulling the strings.
* ClippedWingAngel: For being a TrueFinalBoss, however, she's much weaker than Jahn, and doesn't even have a ranged attack. It doesn't help that by the time you get to her, you already have a lot of [[KryptoniteIsEverywhere Dragon-slaying weapons]], including the Binding Blade and all of the obtainable legendary weapons, which is needed to unlock the last three chapter. Compared to every other enemy in the series, her stats do not change in hard mode at all, and the only real change is a single additional hit point. Justified however, since she was never really meant to fight anyone. SubvertedTrope after she TookALevelInBadass in ''Heroes''.
* DarkReprise: "Shaman in the Dark" after she transforms, and it was already a sad song to begin with.
* DragonTheirFeet: Happened to her twice. During the Scouring, the Eight Legends killed the leader of the dragons, resulting in Idunn blanking out and only attacking them on reflex. In the present, Zephiel ordered Idunn to continue creating war dragons even in the face of his demise and entrusted Brenya to deliver her to safety with Jahn in the Dragon's temple prior to the siege of Bern's capital. You're only given the chance to stop her if you have all the Divine Weapons and Fae intact.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Poor Idunn has been through '''a lot''', to put it mildly. But thankfully, it's possible to give her a hopeful resolution if the best ending is achieved.
* EmotionlessGirl: As a result of being turned into a soulless weapon. In the best ending, with her soul restored, she slowly begins to recover, starting with a laugh, and with her Ascended variant in ''Heroes'', this is fully Averted for her.
* EmptyShell: She was a Divine Dragon who, against her will, was stripped of her soul by a rival faction of dragons and made an obedient shell with the power to [[MookMaker create artificial "war dragons" en masse]]. After the Eight Legends killed the Dragon King, they came face to face with Idunn and were shocked to find the source of the dragons endless soldiers was a tortured child staring into space without orders to follow. Due to this and hearing rumors of her past, Hartmut held back and merely rendered Idunn unconscious with the Binding Blade, he then sealed her to prevent from creating more war dragons. Unfortunately, Zephiel not only woke Idunn from her thousand-year sleep, but discovered how to make himself her new master.
* FightOffTheKryptonite: The Demon Dragon does not take aggravated damage from most dragonslaying weapons, including the legendary ones. The one ([[NoKillLikeOverkill utterly absurd]]) exception is the Binding Blade.
* FreezeFrameBonus: Two of them: a blink-and-you'll-miss-it glimpse of her true form at the end of the intro, and in chapter 21, Idunn very briefly shown with her cloak off when Roy sees Hartmut's memories.
* GoodCostumeSwitch: Ascendant Idunn is basically the redeemed Idunn who replaced her purple outfit and cape for a light green outfit and a light blue cape.
* HeelFaceTurn: Her life is spared and begins to reside with Fae in Arcadia if the perfect ending is achieved by defeating her with Roy using the Binding Blade.
* HistoricalInJoke: Ascended Idunn has her holding a basket of apples. Her namesake Idunn, or Iðunn from ''Myth/NorseMythology'' is associated with apples, mainly the golden ones that give the gods their eternal youth.
* InTheHood: Idunn spends a majority of the game wearing her hood. However, once you get to her in the final chapter, she takes it off.
* {{Irony}}: Was defeated by Hartmut, who decides to have mercy on her. Is awoken by Hartmut's descendant [[NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished to start causing destruction again]].
* LadyOfBlackMagic: Theoretically she's a wielder of dark magic. By the time you get around to fighting her, however, she just turns into a dragon.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Dark Priestess".
* MacGuffinSuperPerson: The warring Dragons and later Zephiel treat Idunn as a tool to carry out their motives.
* MookMaker: She creates all of the enemy Manaketes faced during the game, excluding Jahn.
* NoSell:
** Her unique "Demonic Breath" ability in ''Heroes'' not only allows her to outright ignore any stat debuffs during combat, she actually gains 4 points in each stat sans health if she gets hit by one.
** Her Spring variant's "Zephyr Breath" in ''Heroes'', among other effects inflicted on the foe, allows her to ignore any debuffs if either she has any field stat buffs or she is within 2 spaces of an ally.
** Her Ascended variant's "Dew Dragonstone" in ''Heroes'', among othe effects, allows her to take no effective damage against armor effective weapons, and if she is within 3 spaces of an ally she ignores any field stat debuffs on her during combat.
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: "Mage/Demon Dragon," a living weapon designed to be highly resistant to magic. Before her soul was destroyed, she was a divine dragon like Fae.
* PaperTiger: Ingame this happens so badly, that even if Roy's stats were at base level (including promotion gains), [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrjZX8yBKos he could still take off 75% of her health with Dancer/Bard assistance]], due to Idunn being a ClippedWingAngel and the Binding Blade being just that uber.
* PreMortemOneLiner: In ''Heroes''.
-->"I will lead."\\
"You are in my way."\\
"By my will."\\
"Why resist?"
* PromotedToPlayable: She makes her playable debut in ''Heroes''.
* SaveTheVillain: It is possible to spare Idunn's life by having Roy land the final blow on her with the Binding Blade while Fae is still alive. That way, once the Dragon Sanctuary begins to crumble, Roy carries an unconscious Idunn with him and survive the collapse, thus unlocking the game's best ending.
* SealedEvilInACan: According to Jahn, Hartmut sealed her away with the Binding Blade. A thousand years later, however, Zephiel re-awoke her as part of a plan to break out a war.
* SmarterThanYouLook: She might act as the (mostly) mindless living weapon of Zephiel and Jahn during most of ''The Binding Blade'' but ''Heroes'' shows that, after regaining her soul at the end of the ''The Binding Blade'', she actually went on a journey to become wiser and find a peaceful way to allow humans and dragons to live together, wich is a far more altruistic desicion that the one of the GeniusBruiser Zephiel wich is to TakeOverTheWorld to allow dragons to rule over it. Also, Idunn gets the fact that humans ''and'' dragons can be corrupted while Zephiel believes that HumansAreTheRealMonsters and dragons are better than them.
* TookALevelInBadass: Takes a rather large one in ''Heroes'', having now astronomical defense with skills to further raise them and disable debuffs on her stats.
* TragicMonster: Had her ''soul taken out'' after being separated from her own people, so that her ability to create artifical war dragons could be exploited against the humans.
* TrueFinalBoss: If you fulfill the conditions to continue past chapter 22, she serves as the last boss of the game. If not, she's TheUnfought.
* UndyingLoyalty: ''Heroes'' reveals that Idunn's loyalty to Zephiel was and is still genuine, even if Brunnya believed that she was an EnigmaticMinion. Even without the brainwashing she was put through (at first) she still cares for Zephiel even if she's grateful towards Roy for allowing her to be free, mourning Zephiel's death at his hands.
* WalkingSpoiler: Idunn's role as the Demon Dragon isn't revealed until the endgame, beforehand she was clearly important as she was always near Zephiel, but it wasn't clear why.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In ''Hasha no Tsurugi'', she makes an attention-grabbing appearance shortly before the Etrurian Army marches on Bern, and... her role in the plot is then [[LeftHanging quietly tossed out the window]] with no resolution. Furthermore, the manga chooses to end Roy's subplot based on ''the bad ending of the game'' where Idunn escapes without a trace of her whereabouts. While this actually makes sense in the context that a third party prevents Roy's group from obtaining all but one of the Divine Weapons, and that Roy was not the main character of the manga anyway, the way it's handled leaves a bit to be desired.

* GenerationXerox: He's a turncoat and a coward just like his father was. And he meets an undignified end just like his father.

* NonIndicativeName: He's named after [[Myth/ArthurianLegend Sir Mordred]], known as the Traitor Knight that betrayed Myth/KingArthur and put an end to the Round Table of Camelot. Mordred here came off as more or less a grieving but TheGoodKing.

* PragmaticVillainy: Averted. After five turns, [[RapeVillageAndBurn Oro orders a group of bandits to ransack the villages nearby to collect their valuables]]. When a soldier protests that doing so could become public and have severe consequences, Oro's massive ego leads him to brush him off, claiming that [[AboveGoodAndEvil he is above any sort of prosecution]] because of his divine right.

* PaperTiger: Yes, he has high attack power and defense, but his relatively low HP and resistance coupled with no ranged attacks absolutely destroys any threat he may have initially posed, as it is easy to defeat him by CherryTapping him with mages from 2 range.

* LifeSteal: Uses a Nosferatu tome as his only weapon.

* FatBastard: A cowardly traitor as well.

* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The responsible to Wade's foolish.

* AdorablyPrecociousChild: She's pretty much here to serve this trope.

** Just read his battle quote:

* PragmaticVillainy: Averted. After five turns, [[MoralEventHorizon Oro orders a group of bandits to ransack the villages nearby to collect their valuables]]. When a soldier protests that doing so could become public and have severe consequences, Oro's massive ego leads him to brush him off, claiming that [[AboveGoodAndEvil he is above any sort of prosecution]] because of his divine right.

* PaletteSwap: Of Erik.
* {{Superboss}}: Exists as an extra hurdle for Hard Mode of Chapter 11A.

* LaughingMad: Once he's finished off, [[DieLaughing that's all he can do]].

* CastingAShadow: Brakul, Maral and Chan are dark magic-wielding Druids.
* HorseArcher: Thoril, Kudoka and Kabul are Nomadic Troopers.

* StatusEffects: The Druids are equipped with status staves.

* BaitAndSwitch: Is the subject of this several times, relieving a boss from his post on the throne (Arcard), leaving somebody else in charge (Aine), and finally [[spoiler:being dumped into the fray when the battle is going badly and his commander (Narcian) leaves]]. He's only fought once, though.

* PaletteSwap: Of Henning.

* PlayingWithFire: He is equipped with Elfire when engaged in combat.

One of Murdock's best lieutenants in charge of guarding the Shrine of Seals and the dark tome Apocalypse residing in it, following Murdock's death.

* DarkIsEvil
* PaletteSwap: Of Ohtz.

* BaitAndSwitch: Is the ''third'' and last boss to take a seat on the throne in Chapter 12.

* OurDragonsAreDifferent: In this case, he's a barely sentient fire-breathing dragon.
* PaperTiger: Yes, he has high power and defense, but his low HP and resistance coupled with no ranged attacks absolutely destroys any threat he may have initially posed.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
* RoboSpeak: His speech text is in katakana, evoking this trope.

* BonusBoss: Exists as an extra hurdle for Hard Mode of Chapter 11A.

* WalkingSpoiler: Idunn's role as the [[spoiler:Demon Dragon]] isn't revealed until the endgame, beforehand she was clearly important as she was always near Zephiel, but it wasn't clear why.

[[folder:Idunn ''(Idoun, Idenn, Idun)'']]

* AntiVillain: [[spoiler:She's just a puppet with Zephiel pulling the strings.]]
* ClippedWingAngel: For being a TrueFinalBoss, however, she's much weaker than Jahn, and doesn't even have a ranged attack. It doesn't help that by the time you get to her, you already have a lot of [[KryptoniteIsEverywhere Dragon-slaying weapons]], including the Binding Blade and all of the obtainable legendary weapons, which is needed to unlock the last three chapter. Compared to every other enemy in the series, her stats do not change in hard mode at all, and the only real change is a single additional hit point. Justified however, since [[spoiler:she was never really meant to fight anyone]]. SubvertedTrope after she TookALevelInBadass in ''Heroes''.
