%%zce* NothingPersonal: Has this attitude towards her enemies and says this word for word in one of her critical hit quotes.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Catherine only has explicitly romantic endings with men but she gets ''very'' flustered and [[LuminescentBlush noticeably blushes]] when Shamir suggests they get married if Catherine is so afraid of losing her during their A+ rank support conversation. She is also extremely loyal to Lady Rhea (who is [[GayOption bisexual]]) but her loyalty has non-romantic justifications.

* StrongFamilyResemblance: Byleth obviously gets their looks from her.

* AlternateSelf: His Cindered Shadows version is a completely different individual from the one who appears in the main story. He appears under the name "Monk" asking for flowers to place upon Sitri's grave, and idle dialogue in Abyss explains that like his Cindered Shadows self this version of Aelfric was the one behind the Abyss becoming a civilized place, but he was forced out of the Church later on due to some undefined scandal. Clearly in the main game's continuity, while he is still focused on Sitri, he never became a villain, either never finding where Sitri's body is in Abyss, Sitri having been truly buried where her marked grave is or the Church managing to stop him before he crossed the point of no return without getting Byleth involved.

** [[spoiler:[[MythologyGag Assuming the Children of the Goddess work like]] [[VideoGame/FireEmblemRadiantDawn the dragon Laguz]], Seteth's condition may [[RecurringElement reference]] Soren's mother Ameldha]].

* QuestGiver: He's one of the main people to go to for sidequests, not to mention the main person who requests supplies on the Silver Snow route.

* AmbiguouslyBi: She says she could get married to Catherine at the end of their support, and states that Shez could try flirting with her, regardless of their gender. In ''Three Hopes'', her C Support with Balthus has her make an unclear statement about her taste in women not being the same as his. However, to complicate the matters further, her paralogue with Leonie in ''Three Hopes'' has her mention that she stopped working for a noblewoman when she kept making unwanted advances towards her. However, Shamir doesn’t specify if her disinterest was due to not being attracted to women in general or because she was not attracted to that noblewoman ''specifically''. It should be noted that Shamir's general 'deadpan snarker' attitude makes it very difficult to tell if she's serious or just trying [[TheTease to fluster]].

* BornLucky: Ties with Ignatz for the highest Luck growth and cap of the playable cast. (55% and 76, respectively)

* GenocideSurvivor: [[spoiler:Alongside Seteth, Rhea, Indech, and Macuil, Flayn is one of the only Nabateans who are still alive after Nemesis and the Elites wiped out her race at Zanado.]]

-->'''Catherine:''' That was just...unexpected! If you'll excuse me, I need some fresh air...

* AmbiguouslyBi: Catherine only has explicitly romantic endings with men but she gets ''very'' flustered and [[LuminescentBlush noticeably blushes]] when Shamir suggests they get married if Catherine is so afraid of losing her.

* AmbigiouslyBi: Catherine only has explicitly romantic endings with men but she gets ''very'' flustered and [[LuminescentBlush noticeably blushes]] when Shamir suggests they get married if Catherine is so afraid of losing her.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: If she achieves A+-support with Catherine, the two end up declaring how much the other means to them and that they're the closest out of all of their comrades, confessing that they would be devastated should they lose the other. Shamir outright says they could get married if it'd put their minds at ease. In their paired ending, [[spoiler:the two end up resigning from the Knights of Seiros and going on a lifelong journey together, eventually ending up in Shamir's homeland Dagda.]]

* SingleTargetSexuality: Downplayed. He's not stuck in the past over the loss of his wife, but he's also clearly not looking to play the field again twenty years after her death. Heck, when he explains his love for her at the cemetery with Byleth, he uses the present tense. In ''Three Hopes''', he even tries to dissuade Manuela from romancing an "old man" like himself, though he is flattered.
* ShipperOnDeck: If his request for [[spoiler:Shez to stay by Byleth's side once he passes]] is of any indication, though [[ShipperWithAnAgenda he might have other motives for saying as much...]]
* ShipperWithAnAgenda: In ''Three Hopes'', this is one interpretation of why Jeralt repeatedly seeks assurance from [[spoiler:Shez that they will stay with and look after Byleth after he passes away. He does think they suit each other, but is mainly concerned about how Byleth will handle living without him. While he does mention he thinks Byleth hanging with Shez and the rest of the army is good for them since they get to be around people their age, he specifically seems interested in Shez and Byleth's relationship moreso than anyone.]]

* {{Expy}}: Her appearance resembles that of Ada Wong from ''Resident Evil'' and, just like Ada, Shamir is a mercenary of foreign descent who is somewhat cold and aloof.
