17->'''Class:''' Junior Lord (''[=FE4=]''), Swordmaster (''Awakening'')\
18'''Holy blood:''' Baldur [Major], Naga [minor]\
19'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuumaUchida (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Christian La Monte (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'')
20Sigurd and Deirdre's son, and TheHero of the second part. A shy but strong-willed boy with great swordfighting abilities and a gentle heart, he's now the hope of hundreds of people who see him as the one who can end the tyranny of Grannvale.
21----
22* TheAce: In ''Thracia 776''. Given how Seliph doesn't think too highly of himself, it is likely derived from the point of view of Leif, who highly looks up to him.
23* AncestralWeapon: He'll ultimately inherit Tyrfing.
24* AngerBornOfWorry: He has a brief moment towards Lana's TakingTheBullet attempt in the Nea Fuyuki manga.
25* BewareTheNiceOnes: If he gets to face Manfroy, he lets him know in no uncertain terms that he is ''pissed off''. The Nea Fuyuki manga has him react badly in general any time an innocent or someone he cares about is killed/nearly killed.
26* BlueBlood: Despite being raised as a commoner, he is descended from important lineages.
27* BrokenAce: He feels the pressure of everyone pinning their hopes on him, particularly in the Nea Fuyuki manga where he begins to isolate himself for it.
28* CainAndAbel: Julius is his half-brother and they'll eventually come to blows come the final chapter.
29* CainAndAbelAndSeth: A rare case where the Seth is the viewpoint character. The villains' plot revolves around twins Julia and Julius, while their half-brother Seliph acts as a SpannerInTheWorks.
30* ChildhoodFriendRomance: In Seliph's romances with either Larcei/Creidne and Lana/Muirne who were raised in the monastery with him.
31* TheChosenOne: Subverted. This is what the people ''think'' he is, but Seliph genuinely ''wasn't'' chosen by a god or a prophecy. He knew about his heritage and all, then decided that he'd had enough of Grannvale's tyranny and chose to stop hiding and start kicking arse up and down the land until he changed things. (If there is a true Chosen One, it's probably Julia.)
32* CoolSword: Tyrfing.
33* CowardlyLion: He may be the leader of the rebellion, but underneath that, he's timid and even wishes to just run and hide from the war (see his conversation with Muirne); however he still soldiers on and never stops fighting for his cause.
34* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Like his father.
35* DependingOnTheWriter: Like Sigurd, Seliph was given a far more emotional and intense side in the Oosawa manga.
36* DeconReconSwitch: His story in a nutshell. Sigurd's story deconstructs the usual ''Fire Emblem'' standards of "gather army, battle across continent." Seliph then gathers an army and battles across the continent, but he does it right.
37* DiscOneNuke: Due to Sigurd getting the lion's share of rings, a powerful sword, probably enough kills to grant his sword Critical, and a few assorted bands as well, Seliph can become ''extremely'' strong in the second generation's early game. It doesn't hurt that the vast majority of enemies in Chapter 6 use axes, meaning that Seliph can potentially solo the whole map. Certain setups can have him as a Knight Lord by the start of Chapter 7, at which point he will be your most useful unit for some time.
38* DudeLooksLikeALady: His portrait in Genealogy is essentially a reverse-side Deirdre with blue hair, something that seems to have been intentional if developer notes is something to go by. The Mitsuki Oosawa manga plays up this fact by mentioning how much he looks like Deirdre on several occasions, all the while playing up his attractiveness towards both genders.
39* EvenTheGuysWantHim: An omake in the Oosawa manga has some [[RedShirt Red Shirts]] in the army discuss the girls in the army to see who's the "best idol"; Lana is deemed too sharp-tongued, Julia is too quiet, Larcei is too energetic, which leads them to conclude that Seliph is the best. In a more disturbing example from the same manga, Duke Dannan of Dozel notes that he has to [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty "take good care of him"]] right after commenting on his looks.
40* GenerationXerox
41** In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he, Leif, and Ares form a trio of friends just as their fathers did before them, with Oifey and Shannan commenting on the nostalgia.
42** If Seliph marries Lana/Muirne, which [[DevelopersDesiredDate the default affection ratings encourage]], it recreates the Knight/Healer dynamic Seliph's parents had.
43* GoodIsNotSoft: Typically very sweet, if not a little shy. If you're a douchebag, though, expect no mercy from him.
44* TheGoodKing: [[spoiler:By the end of the game, he's king of Grannvale, if not a good chunk of the continent depending on how many heirs you let die.]]
45* FamousAncestor: Tiki implies in ''Awakening'' that Seliph's descendents eventually resulted in Chrom.
46* HeroesPreferSwords: As the person with major Baldr blood, Seliph can use any sword that isn't someone else's Holy Weapon. He's also likely to inherit Sigurd's Silver Sword. It should be noted that he is a Swordmaster instead of a Paladin in his Spotpass inclusion in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening''.
47* HeroicLineage: Baldr from his father's side, Naga from his mother's.
48* HeroWithBadPublicity: Zig-zagged. To Arvis and his followers, Seliph is widely reviled as the son of a traitorous usurper whose coup nearly plunged the land into chaos. But for the oppressed, Seliph is hailed as a savior and the rightful heir of Grannvale, as much as he felt like he's not living up to the hailing he got.
49* HiddenBackupPrince: The knowledge that Seliph was alive in hiding gave hopes to the people as a better future.
50* HumbleHero: He continually downplays his own importance.
51* IJustWantToBeBadass: ...and not someone that everyone else feels the need to protect.
52* InconsistentDub: Before ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'' came out with his official name, one spot for ''Genealogy'' in Nintendo Power gave his name as "Serlis." This is even poked fun of in the most recent fan translation; Bramsel will try to remember his name, thinking it's "Serlis" or "Celice", the most common fan translations before his official name came out.
53* InTheBlood: His Naga's and Baldur special blood.
54* InfinityPlusOneSword: Gets the Tyrfing Sword late in Chapter 10. Arvis will be the only named mage enemy left by the time Seliph gets the sword his father left behind. However in the eleventh and final chapter, Seliph can give enemy magic users more hell with this blade.
55* JustAKid: At the start of Gen 2, he points out that Larcei's treating him like a helpless kid, just as how she was complaining about Shannan treating ''her'' like one.
56* LaResistance: Seliph and the crusaders are exactly this.
57* LightningBruiser: With Tyrfing, due to a boost in Speed, he becomes one.
58* LongHairedPrettyBoy: He keeps his hair in a ponytail, and he's on the pretty side. His looks are played up more in the tie-in mangas.
59* LostOrphanedRoyalty: He lost his parents tragically, and is hiding his true identity.
60* MageKiller: Once he gets [[InfinityPlusOneSword the Tyrfing]], he picks up a solid magic defense buff while wielding it. Having minor Naga blood also gives him a nice 20% boost to his resistance growth.
61* MagneticHero: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, where he basically goes around charming people into joining his army by being such a NiceGuy.
62* MartialArtsHeadband: Well, a sword-fighting headband, but the principle is the same. The ''Light Inheritors'' manga has him without it at first, and donning it after he decides to fight directly against the Loptr Empire.
63* MightyGlacier: While his Speed cap is 22, which is not bad, he has rather shaky growth of 35%. A Speed Ring is recommended. [[InfinityPlusOneSword Or the Tyrfing.]] Or [[TakeAThirdOption both.]]
64* ModestRoyalty: He is a nice guy and grew up alongside commoners. Seliph is always considerate of the dangers faced by the common people as he fights.
65* NiceGuy: A very pleasant young man who is friendly and welcoming to those who express interest in fighting alongside him. In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he extends his hand to Ares even as Ares is trying to kill him and has him cornered at the edge of a cliff.
66* ObliviousToLove: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, where he's oblivious both to Julia and Lana's feelings for him and to his own feelings for Lana.
67* OlderThanTheyLook: He's eighteen at the start of his journey, but looks considerably younger due to the art style.
68* PreMortemOneLiner: In ''Heroes''.
69-->"With all strength."\
70"I will never yield!"\
71"I will protect everyone!"\
72"Until the end!"
73* {{Protectorate}}: Shannan's in particular, due to the man swearing as a child to Deirdre that he'd look after him and owing Sigurd for saving him.
74* RagsToRoyalty:
75** From an orphan who lost everything, to emperor.
76** Seliph enables this for any substitute daughter he marries, barring Linda, since all have a commoner background.
77* RebelLeader: The leader of the Crusaders against the corrupted but powerful empire.
78* RedBaron: "Scion of Light." ''Videogame/FireEmblemHeroes'' gives his title as "Heir of Light" instead.
79* {{Reconstruction}}: Whereas Sigurd is a {{Deconstruction}} of Marth's archetype, Seliph takes everything that was dismantled during the first generation and puts it back together.
80* RescueRomance:
81** In his romance with Lene or Laylea, whom Seliph saves in the castle in the desert from their prison.
82** Also with Tine or Linda (if he romances them). If they aren't recruited by Seliph, they more likely die in battle and also stay living with their abusive family.
83* RightfulKingReturns: In a way, since he is the oldest son of Deirdre.
84%%* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: If Seliph is paired with either Daisy, Patty, Fee or Hermina.
85* SentIntoHiding: His father had Oifey and Shannan flee to Isaach in case of his own death. After the Battle of Belhalla, they were joined by Edain and the other orphans.
86* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: With Julia and, in a twist on [[EveryoneCanSeeIt the usual scenario]], they actually ''aren't'' together because they're really half-siblings.[[note]]Unless you exploit the loophole in the Jealousy system that allows them to become lovers.[[/note]]
87-->'''Lewyn:''' You're worried about Julia, aren't you...? You really like her, don't you...?\
88'''Seliph:''' [[SincerityMode No]], I'm just worried about her.
89* ShyBlueHairedGirl: He's something of a male version at the beginning.
90* SuperiorSuccessor: In gameplay, Seliph has a significantly worse start than Sigurd, due to starting unpromoted and being in a stronger army, but by the endgame, his higher growths, extra skills, three Leadership stars, and inheriting all of what made Sigurd so strong will make him into a better unit overall. From a story perspective, Seliph is also more thoughtful and handles the consequences of his actions much better than his father did.
91* SupportingProtagonist: The line out of the story of Generalogy's second generation can be summed up as Lewyn narrating about the current situation, or talk about past history while Seliph listens and morally grows as a person. Much of the conflict late in the story revolves around Julius, Julia, and Arvis, with Seliph on the outside trying to find Julia.
92* ThisIsUnforgivable: To Manfroy for... [[BigBad well, everything, really]].
93* VengeanceFeelsEmpty:
94** [[spoiler:Seliph feels this way after killing Emperor Arvis, who murdered his father and so many of his friends parents as well. By the Epilogue, Seliph tells Azelle's son (if he's alive) that he no longer has any hatred for him.]]
95** [[spoiler:The secret event between Seliph and the ghosts of his parents has the latter lecturing the former about this trope.]]
96* WalkingSpoiler: He's Sigurd's son. Beyond that, you can't talk about his role in the story at all without revealing [[spoiler:Sigurd accidentally helps Arvis create TheEmpire and dies halfway through, and Seliph has to fix his mess]].
97* WarriorPrince: In a sense. While nobility, the constant conflict since his birth means that he's never even set foot in the very region he's meant to rule, and his title is mostly just that -- a title -- until he finally manages to liberate Grannvale.
98* WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou: As with all other ''Fire Emblem'' protagonists, his death results in a game over.
99* WellDoneSonGuy: To an extent in the Nea Fuyuki manga: he wants to prove himself to Shannan, albeit less so out of a need for his approval but to make Shannan recognize him as a equal and therefore stop feeling obliged to protect him.
100* YouAreNotAlone: Leif beats this into him (somewhat literally -- they were sparring) in the Nea Fuyuki manga, fed up with Seliph's "I'm responsible for everyone's lives" attitude.
101* YouKilledMyFather: Chapter 10 lets him duel Arvis. He doesn't ''have'' to be the one to kill him, but [[MageKiller he's the best equipped for it]], and even gets a special cutscene afterwards if he lands the killing blow. However, he's [[VengeanceFeelsEmpty not quite happy about it]].

104[[folder:Oifey ''(Oifaye)'']]
105[[quoteright:143:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/oifeyfe4.png]]
106->'''Class:''' Paladin\
107'''Holy blood:''' Baldur [Minor]
108
109Sigurd's distant cousin and Shannan's best friend. He was first seen in the first generation as a sweet boy who worked as TheStrategist for the good guys. After the TimeSkip, we meet an OlderAndWiser Oifey who helped raise Seliph and the other children, trained Diarmuid in swordplay, and is now a strong fighter.
110----
111* BlueBlood: He from the same lineage of Sigurd's noble family, having Baldur Holy Blood, making him distantly related to them.
112* ButNowIMustGo: After defeating Julius, Oifey leaves Seliph's side to take over management of Chalphy now that Seliph has claimed the throne. Seliph is initially shocked, but accepts it.
113%%zce* CosplayOtakuGirl: In the Fujimori manga.
114* CriticalHitClass: He has Critical as a personal skill, allowing him to perform critical hits without needing a weapon with a 50-kill bonus, a combination bonus from a lover, or the Wrath skill.
115* CrutchCharacter: Though he gives his name to a subset of the archetype that can remain useful throughout the game, unlike his [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight predecessors]].
116* GenderBlenderName: Oifey's name is derived from Aífe, Scáthach's rival and sister.
117* HeroicLineage: Of the Baldur bloodline, to a degree.
118%%zce* {{Keet}}: Very much so in the Fujimori manga.
119* ManlyTears: In the ending, he still hasn't gotten over Sigurd's death seventeen years after the Battle of Belhalla and the fact that he had to leave him behind, calling himself a fool for not being there for him when he needed him the most and openly crying in front of Seliph.
120%%xvr* MasterOfDisguise: Tries to be this in the Nuts Fujimori manga, but [[RunningGag repeatedly]] and hilariously [[PaperThinDisguise fails]].
121* MayDecemberRomance: A mild case happens if he gets paired up with anyone since he's much older than them. Fee seems to be quite smitten with him, to start.
122%%zce* {{Meido}}: In the Nuts Fujimori manga, this is one of his favorite disguises.
123%%zce* MentorArchetype: He's this to the entirety of the Tirnanog group, but especially to Seliph and Diarmuid.
124* OvershadowedByAwesome: He has good skillsets, good growth (comparable to Sigurd), a horse, and remains relatively useful throughout the game. However, for low levels, it's not like you actually need his help to keep Seliph's team alive thanks to how powerful the children are, and as far as late-game stats goes, he is overshadowed by almost everyone in the team. He is still considered upper-mid-tier at worst, though, given how low-maintenance he is (all he really needs is a sword better than his starting Armorslayer and he's basically good forever) and his status as a mounted unit with good starting stats.
125* ParentalAbandonment: He mentions having been an orphan taken in by Sigurd's family. It's worth noting that he also has minor Baldur blood, so he is actually related to Sigurd, even if the relation is distant.
126* ParentalSubstitute: Helped Edain to raise Seliph and the other kids. In the epilogue, Seliph explicitly says that he was like a father to him.
127* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: [[spoiler:Takes over the Dukedom of Chalphy after Seliph is crowned the Emperor of Grannvale and Shannan becomes the King of Isaach.]]
128* SorryThatImDying: His last words, as his death quote, are him apologizing to Sigurd. [[spoiler:In this case, though, Sigurd is long dead.]]
129* StudentAndMasterTeam: He's more than willing to fight alongside his student Diarmuid.
130* SurvivorGuilt: [[spoiler:He's pretty downbeat about abandoning Sigurd and leaving him to die in Gen 1, even though Sigurd told him to go.]]
131* TheStrategist: In the first generation he's barred from the battlefield because he's only fourteen, but Sigurd allows him to participate as a tactician and he serves as the [=NPC=] who manages promotions. Then he grows up and TookALevelInBadass, thus Lewyn takes his role.
132* TeamDad: He offers stern advice and training to several of the kids.
133* TeenGenius: Considering he's only fourteen at the start of the game and yet he's the army's tactician, it's safe to assume that he's this.
134* TookALevelInBadass: Between the generations he becomes a proper fighter.
135* UndyingLoyalty: He's unfailingly loyal to both Sigurd and Seliph.
136* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Gets hit by this regarding Midir in the Nuts Fujimori manga. He still finds him irresistibly attractive even after this revelation.

142->'''Class:''' Shaman (''[=FE4=]''), Sage (''Awakening'' [=SpotPass=])\
143'''Holy blood:''' Naga [Major], Fjalar [Minor]\
144'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AyaneSakura (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Creator/CassandraLeeMorris (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'')
145
146A sweet and shy girl who is somewhat younger than Seliph and his group, and is brought by Lewyn in the group. She has amnesia and has forgotten a good part of her past, but can handle staves and magic tomes well. She is actually Seliph's half-sister, Julius's twin sister, Deirdre's daughter with Arvis, ''and'' the second Princess of Grannvale, as well as the one holding major Naga blood in this generation.
147----
148* AdaptationalDyeJob: In ''Genealogy'' her hair can be interpreted as ambiguously silverish, but ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'', and ''Cipher'' and all official depictions, has her hair confirmed lilac.
149* AmnesiacHero: She has no memories from before Lewyn picked her up.
150* AncestralWeapon: [[spoiler:She eventually gets the Book of Naga, which originally belonged to Crusader Heim.]]
151* BadassAdorable: Very cute, and, should you give her Nosferatu, almost unkillable... [[spoiler:the Book of Naga makes her a GameBreaker]].
152* BlueBlood: Naga Blood.
153* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:Manfroy does this to her and forces her to fight against Seliph's army. This also has the purpose of keeping her Naga power from threatening Julius.]]
154* BrotherSisterIncest: In a way, subverted. Julia and Seliph have a negative love growth. However, it is possible to pair them anyway if you exploit the "Jealousy" system via strategic placing of Larcei and Lana: but this only works if you don't reset the game at all after Chapter 5. (Or if you keep them pretty much "glued" to each others's sides until she gets kidnapped.) Though they were actually originally planned to be a set-in-stone couple by chapter eight in the game's original production before the idea was changed.
155* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler:The Abel to Julius's Cain.]]
156* {{Deuteragonist}}: [[spoiler:The twin sister of the main villain, and is essential to beating him.]]
157* DependingOnTheArtist: A bit more than some other ''Geneaology'' folks. In the 90s-era art and into the new millenium, her dress tended to be floor-length and if you could ever see her feet, she was wearing short boots; this was relatively in-line with her sprite. Her initial redesign by Haimura Kiyotaka for ''Fire Emblem Heroes'', however, shortened the dress slightly (and also made it gauzy and translucent below the ankles), allowing her feet to be easily seen... and she now wears a pair of very cute, light, foot-exposing sandals and no other leg coverings. (Also, [[SarcasmMode surely coincidentally]], in her "damaged" state this allows her to ShowSomeLeg.)
158* HairColorSpoiler: Her white hair marks her either as related to Deirdre or a member of the Friege family, and in context, it's pretty obvious that it's not likely the latter, so...
159* HeroicLineage: Of Naga from her mother's side and Fjalar from her father's.
160* InterfaceSpoiler: Her parentage is only a mystery to other characters once you look at her Holy Blood.
161* KissingCousins: Technically possible, though not easy because she has zero base points ''and'' a zero natural growth with every eligible male other than Seliph. Still, by keeping her glued to one of the eligible males, you can give her a non-Seliph love interest -- including, potentially, the son of her father's half-brother Azelle. Of course, Seliph is technically her cousin as well as her half-brother.
162* LateArrivalSpoiler: Her appearances in the {{DLC}}s of ''Awakening'' and in ''Heroes'' make zero attempts to hide whom she's related to.
163* LightEmUp: Uses light magic such as Nosferatu, Aura, and [[spoiler:The Book of Naga]].
164* MechanicallyUnusualFighter: Played with, she functions the same way as any other unit, but her natural love growths are all 0 with the exception of Seliph, whom she has a ''negative'' love growth with.
165* MysteriousWaif: A young girl with no memories of her past...
166* MysticalWaif: ...who is also a kind, quiet, and polite WhiteMagicianGirl with MysticalWhiteHair (ish), is able to sense the future (to some degree), and is actually Julius's twin sister, Seliph's half-sister, and [[spoiler:the only one alive who can use the Book of Naga]].
167* MysticalWhiteHair: A girl with no past, an affinity for magic, and silvery hair. The light purple hair is from her mother, Deirdre. Unlike her, the white hair doesn't coincide with Loptous blood.
168* NiceGirl: Very sweet, especially in the Nea Fuyuki manga where she pleads to Seliph to not fight Iucharba and Iuchar because she can tell that they're good people.
169* NonLethalKO: Much like her mother, if she is defeated in battle, once the stage is over, she'll be found by Seliph in the recently-taken castle. [[spoiler:Grannvalian enemies aren't likely to kill their princess, and the Thracian enemies presumably want to use her as a hostage]]. However, [[spoiler:after she's been cured from brainwashing]] in the Final Chapter, [[KilledOffForReal this wears off and she'll die for real after that point]].
170* PreMortemOneLiner: In ''Heroes''.
171-->"I... I remember!"\
172"Away with you!"\
173"I'll fight... I will!"\
174"May the gods protect me."
175* PrincessClassic:
176** Has some elements of this, though she [[TookALevelInBadass takes a level in badass]] after regaining her memory. Gameplay-wise, she is far from helpless and goes from being a BadassAdorable GlassCannon to a GameBreaker once [[spoiler:she gets the Book of Naga]].
177** In the Nea Fuyuki manga, she never picks up a weapon.
178* RedEyesTakeWarning: When she's brainwashed by Manfroy, her eyes turn red.
179* ShrinkingViolet: She's on the quiet and demure side for the most part of the game, but gets a significant confidence boost late in the story.
180* SilkHidingSteel: After regaining her memories and [[spoiler:becoming un-brainwashed]], at which point she displays how much of a backbone she has. In the Nea Fuyuki manga, she displays this side long before that, when she calls Ares out on his wishy-washy attitude regarding his whole vengeance schtick.
181* SingleTargetSexuality: If her love growths are anything to go by, she doesn't have any love growths with anyone except for Seliph (albeit a negative love growth but exploiting glitches can make them pairable).
182* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Julia's mere existence as the major Naga blood heir can potentially throw Manfroy's plans off. If you play the game right and de-brainwash her in time, she will totally trash through them.]]
183* SpellBook: Uses tomes as her weapon. [[spoiler:Very notable as with her Holy Blood, you may in turn give her the Book of Naga.]]
184* SquishyWizard: She can't take much physical abuse. However, the Nosferatu tome can help her compensate for this.
185* SupernaturalSensitivity: It's suggested that she has this, with her being able to detect Ishtar's strength without Julia herself even being entirely aware of what she's doing.
186* TakingTheBullet: She comes close to doing this for Seliph in the Nea Fuyuki manga. Thankfully, [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Iucharba]] wasn't so keen on axing some random civilian.
187* ThemeTwinNaming: [[spoiler:Seeing as how her name is the female version of Julius... yeah.]]
188* TookALevelInBadass: After she gets her memories back, she becomes much more confident and determined, standing up to her Loptous-possessed brother and Manfroy while she's captive. After she's freed, she also gains access to the Naga tome, which gives her a lot of raw battle power.
189-->'''Julia (to Seliph)''': "[[BadAssBoast For the first time in my life, I know what I'm here for. And that's to fight... I'm not scared anymore, Seliph]]."
190* TraumaInducedAmnesia: After regaining her memories, she suspects the reason she lost them in the first place was due to [[spoiler:the shock over the entire mess of Julius killing their mother and whatnot]].
191* WaifProphet: Has shades of this:
192-->'''Julia (to Seliph):''' "…I just have a terrible feeling that we’ll become separated somehow, never to meet again. I’m… I’m scared, sir."
193* WhiteMagicianGirl: No matter what spellbook you give her, she'll always handle staves well.

197[[quoteright:143:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/johanfe4.png]]
198->'''Class:''' Axe Knight\
199'''Holy blood:''' Nál [Minor]
200
201The second of the three sons of Danann, the ruler of Castle Isaach and heir of Nál. A mounted axe warrior with a crush on Larcei and a somewhat kinder disposition than his dad. Sadly, he does NOT get along with Iucharba, his youngest brother; therefore, he can't be recruited if you reach for Iucharba first.
202
203----
204* ApologeticAttacker: To his father if used to attack him, though his sincerity is somewhat questionable.
205* BadBoss: One of his soldiers claims that he treats them "like dogs", though it's not known how seriously this was meant.
206* CainAndAbel: With Iucharba and Brian.
207* ChivalrousPervert: Tries to woo Larcei/Creidne with PurpleProse if she comes to recruit him. She will tell him to cut it out.
208* EvenEvilHasStandards: Neither he nor Iucharba support the [[spoiler:child hunts]].
209* GracefulLoser: Surrenders to Seliph's army in the Oosawa manga. Though unlike Iucharba, who did it out of respect of the late Ayra, [[LoveAtFirstSight Iuchar fell head over heels over Larcei]] and allows himself to taken prisoner.
210* HarmfulToMinors: As said below, the Oosawa manga states that as kids, both him and Iucharba were there when [[spoiler:Danann betrays Lex and Ayra and has them killed]].
211* HeelFaceTurn: If recruited by Larcei or Creidne.
212* HeroicLineage: Of Nál's bloodline, to a degree.
213* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Not as openly as Iucharba, but people still note that he's not as bad as his older relatives.
214* KissingCousins: If paired with Lex's daughter, especially with Larcei, who he has a crush on regardless of relation.
215* LetsGetDangerous: Brian will accuse him of betraying House Dozel if they fight in the final chapter. Iuchar drops the purple prose and curtly says that ''he'' is the one restoring House Dozel's good name.
216* LoveAtFirstSight: With Larcei in the Oosawa manga, complete with an cartoonish EyePop.
217* MartialArtsHeadband: A blue (and sometimes white) one.
218* MutuallyExclusivePartyMembers: You can get him or Iucharba, but not both.
219* {{Patricide}}: If you personally make him kill his father. Much like Lex, he's not quite as torn up about it (save for in the Nea Fuyuki manga, where he's horrified at the prospect).
220* PurpleProse: He even waxes it out when he ''dies''!
221-->'''Iuchar''' (as an enemy): Ahh... The virtuous rebel army has defeated me... Larcei/Creidne, our love is eternal...\
222'''Iuchar''' (as an ally): Though Iuchar dies, love will never... Guhaa...
223* RecurringElement: He and his brother are continuing the trend of MutuallyExclusivePartyMembers left by [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Arran and Samson]] (Iuchar most likely took after Arran due to being a horse unit).
224%%* SomethingAboutARose: In most illustrations.
225* SparedByTheAdaptation: Of sorts. In the Fuyuki and Oosawa mangas, Seliph recruits both him and his brother, whereas in the game one of them must die.
226* ThoseTwoGuys: In the manga, since both he and Iucharba live, the two of them become this.

231->'''Class:''' Axe Fighter\
232'''Holy blood:''' Nál [Minor]
233
234The third and youngest of the sons of Danann, the ruler of Sophara and heir of Nál. He is a HotBlooded axe fighter who tries to act like a tough loner but has a good heart. Too bad he doesn't get along with Iuchar; therefore, he can't be recruited if you reach for Iuchar first.
235
236----
237* ApologeticAttacker: Like Iuchar, if you make him attack Danann, and similarly with questionable sincerity.
238* CainAndAbel: He's on terrible terms with his older siblings Iuchar and Brian.
239* EvenEvilHasStandards: Doesn't hurt kids or women, unlike the rest of Danann's troops. And neither of the brothers like the [[spoiler:child hunts]].
240* ForGreatJustice: He'll declare this if recruited.
241* GracefulLoser: When approached by Larcei in the Oosawa manga, instead of fighting her, he surrenders and allows himself to be taken prisoner upon seeing how she strongly resembles her mother.
242* HarmfulToMinors: In the Oosawa manga, he and Iuchar witnessed something '''horrible''': [[spoiler:their cruel father Danann's betrayal and murder of both Lex and Ayra]]. Years later, he tells [[spoiler:Larcei and Scáthach]] what happened, and he even adds that [[spoiler:as the servants took both boys away, the last thing he saw of his uncle and aunt was Ayra getting ready to make her LastStand]].
243* HeelFaceTurn: If recruited by Larcei or Creidne.
244* HeroicLineage: Like his brothers, of Nál's.
245* HotBlooded: He's very enthusiastic about beating his brother in their quest for Larcei's hand.
246* JerkWithAHeartOfGold:
247-->"He acts like a bad guy, but is honorable deep inside."
248* KissingCousins: If paired with Lex's daughter, especially with Larcei, who he has a crush on regardless of relation.
249* LoveAtFirstSight: With Larcei in the mangas.
250* MartialArtsHeadband: A green one.
251* MutuallyExclusivePartyMembers: You can get him or Iuchar, but not both.
252* NothingPersonal: What he tells Danann if Iucharba attacks him.
253* {{Patricide}}: If you personally make him kill his father. Much like Lex, he's not quite as torn up about it (save for in the Nea Fuyuki manga, where he's horrified at the prospect).
254* RecurringElement: He and his brother are continuing the trend of MutuallyExclusivePartyMembers left by [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Arran and Samson]] (Iucharba took after Samson for being a foot unit).
255* SorryThatImDying: To Larcei, if you kill him as an enemy unit.
256* SparedByTheAdaptation: Of sorts. In the Nea Fuyuki manga and Oosawa manga, Seliph recruits both him and his brother, whereas in the game one of them must die.
257* ThoseTwoGuys: In the manga, since both he and Iuchar live, the two of them become this.
258* YoungestChildWins: If he's recruited.

261[[folder:Prince Leif of Leonster ''(Leaf)'']]
262[[quoteright:143:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/leiffe4.png]]
263->'''Class:''' Prince\
264'''Holy blood:''' Baldur [Minor], Njörun [Minor]\
265'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KenichiSuzumura (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'', ''VideoGame/FireEmblemEngage''), Creator/NicolasRoye (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'', ''VideoGame/FireEmblemEngage'')
266
267Seliph's paternal cousin and the youngest son of Quan and Ethlyn, raised by Finn in hiding.
268
269He is the main protagonist of the interquel game ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776'', and tropes regarding him over there could be found [[Characters/FireEmblemThracia776 here]].
270
271----
272* AscendedExtra: He was just another character in this game, but was promoted to TheHero of ''Thracia 776''.
273* BagOfSpilling: In the Interquel ''Thracia 776'', Leif can be carrying various powerful swords such as the Bragi Sword and the King Sword before permanently joining forces with Seliph in ''Genealogy of the Holy War''. When he first appears in ''Genealogy'', he somehow loses all of them, only having swords inherited from his mother. He also somehow forgets how to naturally double attack enemies without proccing Adept when having a higher attack speed than them[[note]]This is due to the fact that in ''Genealogy'', you also need the Follow-Up skill (which Leif does not have initially) to perform another attack in the same round of combat, wheras in every other game, your attack speed must be four points or higher than your opponent in order to perform a follow-up attack[[/note]].
274* BlueBlood: He is Seliph's cousin and from the same lineage of his noble family.
275* BoringButPractical: Master Knight Leif is unable to equip a Holy Weapon, in exchange for being able to equip almost every weapon in the game (A Rank in every weapon other than Light (C Rank) and Dark Tomes (no Rank)). However, for the most part, Leif is one of the best ''staff'' users, especially Rescue Staves, which is really useful when combined with his high movement as a mounted unit and his amazing combat capability.
276* TheCameo: Marth has a PaletteSwap based on him in the ''Super Smash Bros'' franchise. A Spirit based on Leif would appear in VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate many years later.
277* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With either Nanna or Jeanne if paired with them. The former actually gets canonized as Leif's official LoveInterest in the following game.
278* CriticalHitClass: He has Critical as a personal skill, allowing him to perform critical hits without needing a weapon with a 50-kill bonus, a combination bonus from a lover, or the Wrath skill. He inherits this skill from his mother, Ethlyn.
279* {{Deuteragonist}}: Leif is the most significant character in the story barring Seliph and Lewyn. The stretch between chapter 7 to 9 is set in Thracian peninsula, which largely covers his personal conflict. This part of the story is so significant, that a good chunk of the next game, ''Thracia 776'' is basically a HowWeGotHere towards the end of chapter 7 of ''Genealogy''.
280* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Even though the story and ending of ''Thracia 776'' establishes that Leif canonically survives all the way to the end of the ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', Leif can die at any point during the latter game without penalty, and this will be brought this up in the ending, where it would mention Leif as one of the rightful heirs of Thracia that has been lost.
281* GenerationXerox:
282** He looks a ''lot'' like a younger version of Quan, and his canon pairing according to ''Thracia 776'' pairs him with the Troubadour Nanna, which mirrors Quan and Ethlyn (a fact that gets lampshaded in ''Genealogy''). As of ''Heroes'', he also shares his [[Creator/KenichiSuzumura Japanese voice actor]] with his father.
283** In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he, Seliph, and Ares form a trio of friends just as their fathers did before them, with Oifey and Shannan commenting on the nostalgia.
284* GoodIsNotSoft: He's a good kid, but he's also devoted to restoring his country, no matter what it takes. He also expresses a very deep desire to ''personally'' kill Travant "with his bare hands" in their battle quote.
285* HeroicLineage: Of Baldur's from his mother's side and Njörun from his father's, but both minor enough that he can't wield any Holy Weapons.
286* HeroOfAnotherStory: He was leading a rebellion in Leonster as Seliph began his holy war. This rebellion is shown in ''Thracia 776''.
287* JackOfAllTrades: As a Master Knight, Leif can do everything other than wielding Holy Weapons. However, he has a pretty weak start.
288* LastOfHisKind: Initially believed to be the only surviving member of Leonster's royal family -- until [[ThereIsAnother Altena shows up]], at least.
289* MagikarpPower: Very difficult to train up unless you can get him to inherit the Follow-Up Ring, the Paragon Ring, a Brave Sword, or a combination thereof via the pawn shop or inheritance, but he goes from low-level Prince to ass-kicking Master Knight.
290* OfficialCouple: ''Thracia 776'' retroactively establishes that he and Nanna canonically get together.
291* PreMortemOneLiner: If up against Bloom.
292-->"You've made my people suffer, King Bloom. You'll die for what you've done."
293* RedBaron: "Sage-Lord."
294* SpotlightStealingSquad: So much so the game's narrative questioned why everyone other than him is stuck in Thracia.
295* TookALevelInBadass: After his promotion to Master Knight and generally in comparison to how he was in his own game (which chronologically takes place before his promotion would normally take place in ''Genealogy'').
296* WalkingArmory: Upon promotion, he can wield any non-holy weapon in the game other than Aura, Nosferatu, and dark magic.
297* WarriorPrince: In a similar vein to Seliph. He's technically not ruler of his country just yet, due to it having been taken over, but he's fighting to reclaim it.

312'''Holy blood:''' Od [Major]\
313'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ToshikiMasuda (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Ted Sroka (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'')
314
315The half-nephew of Ayra and the son of King Mariccle of Isaach. He is the rightful heir to the Isaachian throne occupied by Danann after the TimeSkip. Raised by Edain alongside the other kids, he is one of the oldest of the group and has a huge responsibility on his shoulders in liberating his own country.
316----
317* AncestralWeapon: Balmung, which he'll receive fairly early on.
318* AngerBornOfWorry: In his last lovers conversation with Patty, he gets angry at her when she brings him lunch...on a battlefield, where she should absolutely not be letting her guard down. This also happens when he reunites with Larcei in the Oosawa manga.
319* BadassAdorable: Very cruel aversion in the Oosawa manga. We ''do'' see the kid beating up adult fighters in the arena, but the rendition of [[spoiler:Deirdre's capture]] is something ''very'' different; bless his heart for trying to help, but he gets completely trashed by [[spoiler:Manfroy]], and it's when [[spoiler:Deirdre]] tries to save him that she lowers her defense enough for [[spoiler:Manfroy]] to get at her.
320* BigBrotherInstinct: He's rather protective of Seliph, who looks up to him as an older brother of sorts.
321* BigBrotherMentor: To all of the children raised in Isaach, but especially Seliph.
322%%* BlueBlood
323* BodyDouble: He has a looklike in Chapter 9 when entering a village with Jeanne or Hermina. Considering that a man named Shannam in ''Thracia 776'' is under his request as his double, it is strongly implied to be him.
324* BrokenAce: Aside from his FailureKnight issues, this is implied towards the end of the game, where in a conversation Seliph credits all of his swordsmanship skills to him, to which he gives a somewhat lackluster response and Seliph then comments on how tired he seems (which Shannan then deflects by joking that Seliph's calling him old).
325* ChickMagnet: Patty, Daisy, Creidne, [[KissingCousins Larcei]]...
326* CoolSword: Balmung.
327* DiscOneNuke: You'll get him (and Balmung) early on in the second chapter of Gen 2, and depending on how the rest of your army from the previous chapter turned out, there's a very real possibility that you'll need him to take on the bosses, if not solo the entire map.
328* TheFaceless: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, his face is always obscured in some way until he's explicitly introduced.
329* FailureKnight: Driven to be strong since he failed to keep Deirdre from being kidnapped and memory-wiped by Manfroy.
330* FallenPrincess: Forced to flee his country with Ayra as a child due to his father knowing that Isaach didn't stand a chance in the war, with Grannvale ultimately taking over. [[spoiler:At the end of the game, if he survives, he'll finally inherit his birthright as Isaach's king.]]
331* FanservicePack: ''Heroes'' is ''very'' flattering to him appearance-wise. He's given notably prominent pectorals straining a very tight undershirt in his art set, and said undershirt doesn't hesitate to literally explode into shreds in his injured artwork to expose his chest.
332* HeroicLineage: Holding Major Od blood, and thus the inheritor of its AncestralWeapon that he travels to the Yied Desert to retrieve.
333* IGaveMyWord: He promised Deirdre that he'd look after Seliph, to the point where [[spoiler:in Ch. 5, when Sigurd tries to get Oifey to take Seliph and flee, Shannan basically forces him to let him accompany them, making it clear that he won't hand Seliph over to anyone else]].
334* IOweYouMyLife: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, at least, it's mentioned that part of his devotion to Seliph stems from all that Sigurd did for him.
335* KissingCousins: If paired with Larcei.
336* LastOfHisKind: If Ayra didn't marry, then he's the sole remaining member of the Isaachian royal family, which becomes particularly obvious in hindsight if he doesn't make it to the end of the game.
337* LittleMissBadass: By the time Ch. 5 rolls around, he's mentioned to be a good enough fighter that he's apparently all the protection that Oifey and Seliph need while fleeing to Isaach despite likely being only in his preteen years or so.
338* LongHairedPrettyBoy: His hair reaches his waist, and he's fairly attractive.
339* MasterSwordsman: Aside from being your sole prepromoted Swordmaster unit, a few of his conversations involve him giving swordsmanship lessons/advice to others, and he was the one who taught Seliph.
340* MayDecemberRomance: A May September case happens if he gets paired up with anyone, since all the gen 2 females are 15-ish years younger than he is.
341* MyGreatestFailure: Still hasn't forgiven himself for [[spoiler:failing to protect Deirdre]], years later.
342* NoHeroToHisValet: He's more casual to Seliph than most are, with his wife (should he be married) calling him out on it in the epilogue as Seliph is then the to-be king of Grannvale. Seliph, on his part, doesn't mind, as he sees Shannan like a brother to him.
343* ParentalAbandonment: His father was assassinated, and his mother is never mentioned, but she's presumably dead as well, hence why he's in Ayra's custody.
344* ParentalSubstitute: If Shannan is dead but Scáthach/Dalvin is alive, he'll mention in the epilogue that Shannan was the closest thing to a father that he and his sister had.
345* {{Protectorate}}: Ayra's in Gen 1.
346* RebelLeader: Leader of the resistance against Isaach's tyrannical government in part 2. [[spoiler:And he's crowned as King of Isaach if he makes it to the end of the game.]]
347%%* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: If you pair him up with GenkiGirl Patty or Daisy, and with Fee or Hermina.
348* SorryThatImDying: His last words, should he be killed, are him apologizing to Seliph.
349* TheStoic: Compared to his more energetic self as a child, he grew up into this.
350* StrongFamilyResemblance: When grown up, he looks ''exactly'' like his dad Mariccle. [[http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Mariccle Seriously!]]
351* SugarAndIcePersonality: He can be somewhat aloof and uptight, and his love conversations show that he's not exactly the most romantic person, but he's warmer to those he cares about.
352* TallDarkAndHandsome: He's got the looks, and several of the Generation 2 girls are smitten with him.
353* TookALevelInBadass: He was a non-combatant in the first generation, but he's grown up into a prepromoted Swordmaster who can quickly gain access to a Holy Weapon that makes him an incredibly strong character.
354* UnderestimatingBadassery: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, the Loptr Church members at Yied Shrine claim that he's no threat without Balmung -- immediately before he proceeds to beat them up.
355* UndyingLoyalty: Towards Seliph, with even his death quote being directed to him. See IGaveMyWord and IOweYouMyLife for why.
356* WarriorPrince: Like Seliph and Leif, a disgraced prince who intends on reclaiming his birthright.
357* WiseBeyondTheirYears: In the Oosawa manga, Oifey comments on Shannan handling [[spoiler:leaving behind Sigurd and co. to flee with the children]] more maturely than him despite Shannan being the younger one. In the game itself, Shannan points out that Oifey can't seek shelter in Isaach without Shannan there to vouch for him.
358* WouldHitAGirl: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he makes it clear that he doesn't discriminate against enemies based on gender and would've killed [[BadassAdorable Tine]] if Arthur hadn't stopped him.

368
369Son of Eldigan and Lachesis' nephew, and the holder of the major Hoðr blood.
370----
371* AbortedArc: It is entirely possible for Ares to never learn the truth of his father's death and his animosity towards Seliph went unresolved. The event where he finds out the truth is only initiated by Nanna, not Jeanne. As the result, him completely forgetting about his grudge in the epilogue comes off as jarring.
372* AloofAlly: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, where he remains standoffish to the others even after joining them.
373* AncestralWeapon: He inherits Mysteltainn from Eldigan, as the holy weapon that originally belonged to the Crusader Hoðr.
374* BlackKnight: A more benevolent version than usual, but he still makes it clear that he's not Seliph's friend. [[spoiler:He seems to warm up by the end of the game, particularly if he receives his father's letter from Nanna.]]
375* BrokenPedestal: Javarro, his ParentalSubstitute, becomes this for him once he realizes how callous the man is regarding Lene's fate.
376* CallBack: The stage design and his joining situation are radically similar to Chapter 2 and Beowolf. However, Ares becomes playable automatically come the next player phase after he appears, preventing you from fighting him unless someone is already in his range.
377* CoolSword: Mysteltainn.
378* DisappearedDad: Eldigan is a significant presence in Ares' life despite having died long ago. Ares is trying to live up to him, but unlike Eldigan, he's willing to change his course of action if it seems right.
379* DiscOneNuke: You recruit him about halfway through the second chapter of the second generation, and between his possession of Mysteltainn, being mounted, and having no real weaknesses, he'll likely be one of your best units.
380* TheDulcineaEffect: Turns against both his employer and the man who raised him since childhood, and sides with his (presumed) mortal enemy, to rescue a girl he only recently met and befriended.
381* EnemyMine: He joins Seliph's army on his own because he needs their help to fight Javarro and Bramsel.
382* FallenPrincess: Was raised by a mercenary named Javarro after Nordion fell, his dad was executed, and his mom was killed when Leonster also was invaded. [[spoiler:If he makes it to the end of the game, he returns to Agustria so he can take over and reconstruct it.]]
383* FireForgedFriends: With Seliph, once they sort the SinsOfOurFathers issues out.
384* GenerationXerox: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he, Seliph, and Leif form a trio of friends just as their fathers did before them, with Oifey and Shannan commenting on the nostalgia.
385* HeelFaceTurn: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, where he starts off as an enemy.
386* HeroicLineage: He's descended from the crusader Hoðr, through his father.
387* KissingCousins: Since he's the son of Eldigan, this happens if he's paired with Lachesis's daughter Nanna.
388* MageKiller: The Mystletainn gives him a substantial resistance boost.
389* PaletteSwap: His portrait sprite is a heavily edited version of his father's.
390* PreMortemOneLiner: In ''Heroes''.
391-->"Drink, Mystletainn!"\
392"You would become my prey?"\
393"You scoundrel!"\
394"I will take your life!"
395* ShipTease: With Julia in the Nea Fuyuki manga.
396* StrongFamilyResemblance: Looks very much like his father, except facing the other direction and wearing a suit of black armor.
397* SugarAndIcePersonality: Fairly cold to most, but caring if he likes you.
398* TragicKeepsake: Aside from the Mystletainn? A letter from Eldigan that Lachesis gave to Nanna before leaving. She gives it to him as proof that Sigurd and Eldigan never were enemies.
399* UnskilledButStrong: He essentially relies on the Mystletainn to hit accurately. Without it, he has some trouble hitting enemies at times.
400* YouKilledMyFather: When he joins, he makes it clear that he wants to kill Seliph because he believes Sigurd killed Eldigan. (Which may or may not be true, depending how you played.) He gives this up, though, and the chapter following his joining [[spoiler:has Nanna giving him a letter that proves to him that Sigurd and Eldigan were never enemies]]. In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he actually starts off as an enemy.

410
411The princess of Leonster, as well as Quan and Ethlyn's daughter and Leif's older sister. Raised by the killer of her parents, Travant, she appears as an enemy but soon starts having doubts about her mission and heritage, thus she can be swayed to your side.
412
413----
414* AncestralWeapon: She wields Gáe Bolg.
415* AntiVillain: Until she's recruited.
416* ApologeticAttacker: If she attacks Finn.
417* BrokenBird: [[spoiler:Despite starting off in Thracia, she has many doubts about what it's doing. The Nea Fuyuki manga also implies that she had a rather unhappy childhood being raised by Travant, as well.]]
418* CriticalHitClass: She has Critical as a personal skill, allowing her to perform critical hits without needing a weapon with a 50-kill bonus, a combination bonus from a lover, or the Wrath skill. She inherits this skill from her mother, Ethlyn.
419* DeathFakedForYou: Finn and Leif assumed she died in the Yied Massacre and thus weren't aware that she was alive.
420* DragonRider: Being raised in Thracia, the land of wyvern knights, results in this. And one of the only two flying units in generation two, to boot.
421* HeelFaceTurn: She starts off as loyal to Travant, but his orders trouble her deeply and meeting her long-lost brother compounds this to the point where she decides to turn against Thracia.
422* HeroicLineage: Of Njörun from her father's side and Baldur from her mother's. The former is [[spoiler:why Travant kidnapped her instead of killing her]].
423%%* IncestSubtext: With Arion.
424* LadyOfWar: She comes across as very mature and graceful.
425* LongLostSibling: To Leif, though she doesn't know it. He can reveal this to her, plant the seeds of doubt in her heart (leading her to call out Travant), and make her pull a HeelFaceTurn.
426* NotBloodSiblings: Implied that she and Arion could be lovers, despite being adopted siblings and being raised as so since childhood. The fact that she can't be paired up with anyone else in your army supports this.[[note]]This, and not the fact that they are cousins, is the reason why Altena is the only woman in the second generation that Seliph cannot marry[[/note]]
427** If Arion dies in the final chapter, Seliph points out that she loved him, to which she replies, "Please do not speak of that again! It’s… ended… and over…"
428* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:Arion only knocks her out instead of killing her when she confronts Travant regarding the murder of her parents.]]
429* ParentalSubstitute: Coirpre states that Altena was a mother figure to him.
430* RecurringElement: The red dragon rider that defects from the enemy faction, just like [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Minerva]]. Even her name sounds similar to "Athena", the Greek equivalent of Minerva's namesake.
431* TomboyPrincess: [[spoiler:Let's be real: could you really imagine Travant raising her to be a PrincessClassic?]]
432* {{Tykebomb}}: [[spoiler:The reason Travant kidnapped her was to groom her into a Gáe Bolg wielder loyal to him.]]
433* WarriorPrincess: As the princess of Leonster and adoptive princess of Thracia.
434* TheWisePrince: Female version for Thracia, as she heavily dislikes the army's disregard for the lives of innocent people.
435%%* YouKilledMyFather: To Travant, mixed with CallingTheOldManOut.

440->'''Class:''' General
441
442The most powerful general of the Thracian kingdom, and a noble and just person who is very well-loved. Unfortunately, his boss, King Travant, has caught on to his intentions...
443----
444* AwesomeButImpractical: He's a prepromoted General with fairly high base stats, but much like Arden, he really can't catch up with the team, so it's best to just have him defend the home castle.
445* CoolOldGuy: While his exact age is unclear, he's definitely much older than everyone else, as evidenced by the wrinkles on his portrait and his huge beard.
446* FourStarBadass: A respected General of Thracia.
447* MarriedToTheJob: According to a villager.
448* MightyGlacier: He's quite strong (and his class grants him the Great Shield skill, which prevents the enemy's attack from doing any damage upon activation), but he doesn't have a lot of movement.
449* ParentalSubstitute: To Coirpre.
450* RecurringElement: Mirrors [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Lorenz]] as the enemy general who can join your side since he's been pushed to beyond his standards, although the hoops you had to go through before recruiting him is more reminiscent of [[VideoGame/FireEmblemMysteryOfTheEmblem Sheena]].
451* RedBaron: "The Shield of Thracia".
452* ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman: About the only thing he's especially good at is castle defense... which is why it's a good thing that his joining chapter is one of the only ones where your home castle is actually at risk of being lost.

465'''Holy blood:'''[[labelnote:*]]default, not considering Lana's father's blood[[/labelnote]] Ullr [Minor]
466
467The daughter of Edain, and a quite powerful healer. As strong-willed as she is kind, she's among the first who joins Seliph's quest.
468
469----
470* BlueBlood: Minor Ullr blood through her mother Edain.
471* BoringButPractical: At worst, she'll turn out to be a slightly improved version of Edain and a reliable healer. Therefore, most players focus on improving Lester (who is easy to screw up) when selecting fathers.
472* ChildhoodFriendRomance: If paired with Dalvin, Seliph, Scáthach, Tristan, Oifey, Shannan or Diarmuid.
473* CoolBigSis: To Julia. To the point that [[spoiler:Lana feels guilty if she hooks up with Seliph, believing that she's betraying Julia's love for him]].
474* DevelopersDesiredDate: While Seliph ''can'' marry almost any woman in the second generation[[note]]Julia requires exploiting a glitch and Altenna is both Seliph's cousin and already spoken for[[/note]], Lana is the only girl with whom he has a default love rating of one hundred, while every other option starts at zero.
475* FlorenceNightingaleEffect: In the Oosawa manga, she starts getting ShipTease with Scáthach when she takes care of him after [[spoiler:he almost dies killing Danann]], [[MySisterIsOffLimits much to Lester's chagrin.]]
476* GenerationXerox: If Aideen is paired up, Lana will be very similar to her. Lampshaded by [[spoiler:Finn]] if he's her dad.
477* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Like her mother, she's a blond, kind-hearted healer, though her hair takes on a more orange-y tint.
478* PluckyGirl: When Seliph tells her [[StayInTheKitchen "nuns and warfare DO NOT MIX"]], she stands her ground and refuses to leave. Seliph admits he's wrong and lets her join.
479--> '''Lana:''' “Nuns can fight too, you know. I feel just as strongly about this as Larcei does. The imperial troops are becoming crueler with each passing day. It's dangerous just to be a girl anymore! But I don't plan to go down without a fight. I have my own means of warfare!”
480* SilkHidingSteel: Like her mom. On promotion, she could use some tomes, with strength depending on who her father is.
481* TakingTheBullet: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, she's prepared to do this for Julia. Luckily for both parties involved, hurting Lana isn't something Seliph, who's nearby, will stand for.
482* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: In ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', if you don't pair her with Seliph, even though she can move on and be paired with other characters.
483* WhiteMage: Again, takes after her mom.

492
493----
494* BelligerentSexualTension: With Patty, whom he teases and bickers with.
495* BigBrotherInstinct: After the Empire begins moving on the Resistance hideout, he's keen on finding Lana and making sure she's okay.
496* BigDamnHeroes: His introduction in the Oosawa manga, where he rescues Edain and Lana when [[spoiler:the abbey and its surroundings are nearly taken over]].
497* BlueBlood At least through his mother Edain, he has minor blood of Ullr.
498* ChildhoodFriendRomance:
499** If Lester romances Larcei or Creidne, who grew in the monastery with him.
500** Played up and for laughs in the Oosawa manga, where he [[MySisterIsOffLimits does NOT take it well]] when it looks like Scáthach and Lana are crushing on each other.
501* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Blue hair and blue eyes.
502* HorseArcher: He's mounted and wields bows.

505
506[[AC:Children of Ayra]]
507[[folder:Both]]
508* BrotherSisterTeam: While any sibling pair can technically be this, special mention goes to Larcei and Scáthach for debuting together (and having stronger shades of this in general in the Oosawa and Fuyuki mangas) as well as both being the myrmidon class.
509* GoodBadBug: If Chulainn is their father, they can wield Balmung due to their father giving them Major blood. However, since Balmung is considered "locked" on Shannan, it requires a series of glitches and tricks that would allow them to wield Balmung.
510* HalfIdenticalTwins: Larcei and Scáthach look extremely similar.
511* HeroicLineage: The minor-blood descendant of Od, much like their mother.
512* LightningBruiser: They often have high speeds thanks to Ayra's growths, but can naturally deal more damage if their father is strength-oriented.
513* MasterSwordsman: They are powerful swordsman, like their mother and cousin Shannan.
514* RedOniBlueOni: Larcei's the hot-headed red to Scáthach's more reserved blue.
515* VitriolicBestBuds: Of the sibling variety. They bicker but are always loyal to each other.

524'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AtsumiTanezaki (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Creator/LizzieFreeman (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'')
525
526One of Ayra's HalfIdenticalTwins children, and a HotBlooded swordwoman just like her mom. She was raised with Seliph and has a crush on her cousin Shannan, though her romantic feelings can be swayed towards others.
527----
528* ActionGirl: Just like her mother.
529* BlueBlood: Minor blood of Od through her mother Ayra
530* BoyishShortHair: Her hair is short except for two long strands of hair as part of her bangs.
531* ChildhoodFriendRomance: If paired with Seliph, Tristan, Oifey, Shannan, Diarmuid, Lester or Deimne, who grew up in the monastery with her.
532* CuteBruiser: She is rather cute and quick to join in the fighting.
533* CuteClumsyGirl: In the Nea Fuyuki manga.
534* DudeMagnet: Both Iucharba and Iuchar have it bad for her, to her displeasure.
535* GenderBlenderName: Her original name in Japanese is derived from Luchtaine, a ''male'' Irish deity. This is probably what motivated the change to her name in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', where she appeared in English for the first time.
536* GenerationXerox: She really is very, very much like her mom (though perhaps even ''more'' HotBlooded) and fills the same role in Seliph's army. Also very true on a purely technical level, as she straight-up shares battle sprites with Ayra and her in-game portrait is literally Ayra's face with slightly different hair and clothing, and the same can be said with artwork comparisons with her mother in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'', right down to the poses they take. Much like with Lana, this is lampshaded by [[spoiler:Finn]] if he's her father.
537* GenkiGirl: Shows some traits in the Oosawa manga, especially in her introduction. Though she can be more serious when the occasion calls for it, like when she and Lana recall [[spoiler:their CoolBigSis Creidne's HeroicSacrifice]] and when she [[spoiler:gives a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Dalvin for his FaceHeelTurn, with Scáthach having to give her a CooldownHug]].
538* HotBlooded: She's very much the most eager-to-fight in Seliph's group, and is the most pleased to be kicking things off at the start of the second gen. ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'' likes to [[LampshadeHanging hang a lampshade]] on this by giving her the "Quick Burn" skill, which massively boosts her hit and avoidance at the start of a fight which then cools off.
539* JustAKid: She complains about Shannan giving her and the others this treatment, regarding why, at the beginning of the second generation, they rarely get to see the action.
540* KissingCousins: If paired with Shannan. Also with Iuchar/Iucharba if her father is Lex.
541* MissingMom: She firmly believes Ayra is still alive somewhere, even chastising Scáthach when he contradicts her.
542* PaletteSwap: Her sprite is a heavily edited version of her mother's.
543* PluckyGirl: When Scáthach first comes to tell them that the empire is coming for them, her immediate response is to take up arms to fight.
544* RescueRomance: Possibly, if paired up with Shannan, seeing as how she mentions that he once saved her from the Imperial troops.
545* SecretArt: In ''Heroes'', apart from her mother Ayra she's the only unit to get the Regnal Astra skill.
546%%* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: In the Oosawa manga, she and Scáthach are a sibling version of this trope.
547* ShipperOnDeck: For Scáthach/Lana, only in the Oosawa manga.
548* StrongFamilyResemblance: Her mugshot is really Ayra's portrait but edited to have shorter hair and wearing a different outfit. Iucharba in the Oosawa manga easily recognizes her because of her similar appearance to her mother. In ''Fire Emblem Heroes'' she also shares the same artist as her mother. And in the April 2022 Forging Bonds, poor Scáthach ends up committing the mistake of thinking that Ayra is merely Larcei after growing her hair out, only to realize that he's talking to his mom who just looked like a long haired Larcei. [[OhCrap Oopsie.]]
549* {{Tsundere}}: Towards Iuchar or Iucharba.
550* YouKilledMyFather: Very much present in the Oosawa manga. [[spoiler:Since both Ayra and Lex were betrayed by Danann, she ''loses it'' in rage when Iucharba tells her and tries to infiltrate Danann's stronghold to kill him. Bad thing, [[HostageSituation she's captured]] and slated for a PublicExecution, but once Seliph and Co. free her, she and Scáthach kill Danann together.]]

561The other half of Ayra's HalfIdenticalTwins children, also raised with Seliph and Shannan alongside other fugitive royal kids. Levelheaded and soft-spoken, but as strong as his twin sister.
562----
563* BigBrotherInstinct: He's quite protective of Larcei; though she can take care of herself, she's also very quick to fight.
564* BlueBlood: He has minor blood of Od through his mother Ayra
565* ChildhoodFriendRomance: If paired with Muirne or Lana who grew up in the monastery with him.
566* DeadpanSnarker: His appearance in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'' has him lapsing into sarcasm when facing [[LargeHam Owain]].
567* DubNameChange: ''Oh boy''. He went from Skasaha/Skasaher in Japanese, then he was localized to Ulster in ''Awakening'' and remained like that for the English version for years, ''then'' in 2020 in ''Heroes'' it was changed to Scáthach, being more consistent with the Japanese version of his name. Larcei's description in ''Heroes'' mentions him as Ulster ''AGAIN''. However, later on, Intelligent Systems decided to use the name Ulster for the homeland of [[VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776 Miranda]] (previously known as Alster), and the boy's went back to Scáthach, which was finalized come his appearance in ''Heroes'' proper.
568* GenderBlenderName: His name is derived from the female warrior [[Myth/CelticMythology Scáthach]] of Irish mythology. Likely because to avoid this trope, his initial translated name was "Ulster", which comes from the "Ulster Cycle" of said mythology, until Ulster became the name chosen for the translation of Miranda's homeland in ''Thracia 776''.
569* KnightTemplarBigBrother: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he does ''not'' take well to Iuchar and Iucharba's moves towards Larcei, and [[MySisterIsOffLimits makes it clear to them with a murderous atmosphere]]. Arthur (in a similar situation with Tine) even refers to him as "comrade".
570* TheLancer: To Seliph, alongside Larcei. He offers the calm, cautious perspective.
571* NiceGuy: Very levelheaded and kind, sometimes has to keep his sister from running off on her own. ''Awakening'' reflects this by giving him the "Patience" skill, as opposed to Larcei's "Quick Burn".
572* TallDarkAndHandsome: Must be an Od trait.
573* TheGenericGuy: To some degree, he looks much like a common Isaachian swordsman.
574%%* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: In the Oosawa manga, he and Larcei are a sibling version of this trope.
575* ShipTease: In the Oosawa manga, he gets this with Lana. [[AfterActionPatchUp She patches him up]] after [[spoiler:he and Larcei defeat Danann together]], Seliph and Larcei can't help commenting on the chemistry between them, and later he's at the receiving end of [[MySisterIsOffLimits Lester's fury]] for it...

593----
594* ChildhoodFriendRomance: If paired with Lana, Creidne, Muirne or Larcei.
595* FailedASpotCheck: Strangely, he simply mentions Finn as a "knight of Leonster" even if he's his father.
596* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Based on his first appearance in ''Thracia 776'', it is suggested that Diarmuid canonically survives up to the seizing of Castle Melgen and Seliph's army meeting Leif in Chapter 7 of ''Genealogy of the Holy War''. However, it is possible for him to die before that point in the latter game.
597* TheLancer: To his cousin Ares in the ending, whom he follows to Agustria if he doesn't inherit a land from his father's line.
598* LongLostRelative: Nanna had no idea he existed until they finally meet each other for the first time.
599* StudentAndMasterTeam: He's eager to show his mentor Oifey how far he's come.

610Diarmuid's younger sister and the other child of Lachesis. Unlike Diarmuid, she grew up in Leonster alongside Leif, and was taken care of by Finn.
611
612----
613* CallingTheOldManOut: Mild case, if Finn is her father. In their Chapter 7 talk, she has just found out that [[spoiler:Lachesis never reached for Diarmuid and went missing after getting into the Yied desert]], and is ''not'' happy about it.
614* CombatMedic: This is the game where Troubadours wield swords, though whether she's better at hacking or healing will largely depend on who her father was. Even in the worst-case scenario for Nanna's magic stat,[[note]]Her base magic stat is 3, which raises to five after promoting[[/note]] she can still heal thirty HP in one go with a standard Mend staff as a Paladin.
615* ChildhoodFriendRomance: She and Leif knew each other for most of their lives, and can get together in this game if they player so chooses. Both the Nea Fuyuki manga and ''Thracia 776'' go this route.
616* ClingyJealousGirl: Regarding Leif in the Nea Fuyuki manga.
617* DependingOnTheArtist: Her eye color has changed through different arts. She had brown eyes (''Genealogy''), green eyes (''Heroes''), and blue eyes (''Thracia'') throughout her appearance in the series, with several Cipher cards even picking one of the other.
618* AFamilyAffair: Given that ''Thracia 776'' made her an OfficialCouple with Leif, pairing her with his cousin Seliph in this game can give off these vibes. Of course, this is never acknowledged in-universe, as ''Thracia 776'' was made afterwards.
619* IncestSubtext: Played with; she and Leif aren't actually related in any of the games, being ChildhoodFriends who can potentially get a RelationshipUpgrade. However, ''Heroes'' gave her a quote that has her make a parallel between her feelings for Leif and [[BrotherSisterIncest Lachesis's feelings for Eldigan]]:
620--> "Leif has always been so kind to me. [[LikeBrotherAndSister We're as close as brother and sister]]..."
621--> "Now that I'm older, I understand how my mother felt..."
622* KissingCousins: With Ares, if you pair them. In their final conversation, she says that it makes up for her mother's mistake in not getting together with Eldigan.
623* TheLancer: Just like her brother, she also follows Ares to Agustria if she's not paired up and she doesn't inherit a land from her father's line.
624* OfficialCouple: ''Thracia 776'' retroactively established her and Leif as this.
625* PaletteSwap: Besides her hair and feather, she has the same face sprite as her mother's.
626* PluckyGirl: Nanna is very stubborn and brave in the face of danger. In ''Thracia'', i.e., she's once captured alongside Mareeta, and when her captors try to use her as a hostage she ''immediately'' tells the group to not give in.
627* RecurringElement: Your secondary noble healer who was in distress (in this game, being surrounded with enemies) during the time she appeared, which was quite similar with Maria. Bonus points for being a little sister to someone else (Diarmuid), and also repeating the role in ''Thracia 776''.
628* StrongFamilyResemblance: Her mugshot is Lachesis's with short hair and a feather accessory.

634* BlueBlood: If Lewyn is their father (which is canonical), they're part of Sillesse royalty.
635* HeroicLineage: Subverted, they're the only pair of children that possess no Holy blood by default. But since Lewyn is their canonical father, they're descendants of Ced.
636* YoureNotMyFather: They both resent Lewyn (if he's their father) for abandoning Erinys in a time of need, resulting in her dying from a broken heart. When they ''do'' talk about it, it barely goes anywhere, and [[DownerEnding nothing gets resolved.]]

647----
648* BelligerentSexualTension: She bickers entertainingly with Arthur.
649* BigBrotherWorship: She makes it clear in her conversation with Ced that she pretty much thinks he's the greatest.
650* BoyishShortHair: She's got the hairstyle and is one of the more melee-oriented female characters of Gen 2, after Larcei and Altena.
651* BreakTheCutie: If you pair her up but let her husband die by the end of the game. In the epilogue, what would normally be a conversation with Seliph about how she's a GenkiGirl is instead replaced by her breaking down when Seliph asks how she is.
652* CallingTheOldManOut: If Lewyn is her father, she reacts to his lack of acknowledgement by refusing to talk to him in turn until he finally makes an effort to do so in Chapter 10. The conversation goes poorly when he dismisses her feelings and she outright blames him for Erinys' death.
653* CombatMedic: Gains staves after promotion.
654* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Like her mother.
655* DeadGuyJunior: Not her, but her pegasus mount is named after Annand, her deceased aunt. A hidden event showed that she gave her mount that name as a way to commemorate her.
656* FailedASpotCheck: If Lewyn was paired with Tailtiu, then she fails to recognize Arthur as ''her own prince'' despite being a knight. (Granted, it's not like he would have been on TV, not to mention that Arthur wasn't raised as part of royal family.)
657* FragileSpeedster: As per her class.

661* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Tells Arthur that her mom used to tell her a bunch of stories about Sigurd and the Holy Knights. Those stories really inspired her and are her big motivator for joining Seliph.
662* PluckyGirl: Despite not being able to find her brother before she meets Seliph, she's not very worried; In fact, she has a feeling they'll meet up soon.
663* StepfordSmiler: Karin in ''Thracia 776'' mentions that, after [[spoiler:Erinys's death]], Fee's been putting on a brave face in public, but breaking down and crying in private.
664* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Much like her mother being similar to Palla, Fee is character-wise very similar to [[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Est]]. Both are young, short-haired Pegasus Knights with a cheerful outlook on life and fighting.
665* TragicKeepsake: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, she gets Thunder Sword, a memento from Erinys.
666* WellDoneSonGuy: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, she's pretty desperate to get Lewyn's approval, or heck, even just his attention.

675'''Voiced by:''' Creator/GakutoKajiwara (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), [[Creator/PhillipReich Phil Reich]] (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'')
676
677Erinys's son, Fee's brother, and an extremely powerful magic user. He is considered "Ced the Brave" for fighting against the empire.
678----
679* AncestralWeapon: While Forseti will technically go to whomever has Lewyn as a father, [[spoiler:''Thracia 776'' makes Ced his canon son, in which he's the official inheritor]]. Double Subverted in ''Heroes'', where while his regular variant's status as Lewyn's son were made ambiguous again since he only carried the tome called 'Wind of Silesse', presumably since he's based on the [=FE4=] version, where any other man from Sigurd's army can be his father, his Ascended variant wields Heired Forseti, and that version's connected FE titles are both ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' and ''Thracia 776'', [[spoiler:making his Ascended variant the son of Lewyn]].
680* BlowYouAway: While he's a sage who masters all anima and light magic, to fans, Forseti is his IconicItem thanks to how damn powerful it makes him.
681* CallingTheOldManOut: Not as harshly as Fee, but he's definitely not pleased with Lewyn if he's the father.
682* ChronicHeroSyndrome: He can't ignore people in need, with Fee noting that him putting aside his quest of searching for his father to help the people of Manster is so like him. To an extent, it's to a detriment: ''Thracia 776'' points out that [[spoiler:that this all led to him taking too long and ultimately failing in his original purpose, with him not even being there at Erinys's side when she passed away]].
683* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Like his mother.
684** While averted in his [=FE4=] game portrait where he is heterochromatic, with one green eye and one brown eye, it is likely just a coloring error as Ishtar also has a similar issue.
685* {{Determinator}}: He's utterly devoted to protecting Manster, going as far as to state in the Nea Fuyuki manga that it doesn't matter even if he's alone or powerless, and was prepared to pull a LastStand when things started looking truly grim.
686* GenerationXerox:
687** To the Crusader Ced himself, as pointed out in ''Thracia 776''.
688** Plus, while probably coincidental, if he has Lewyn as his father, then Ced inadvertently mimicked his actions in Gen 1: as prince of Silesse, he left behind his mother and the country, with a Pegasus Knight going out in search of him.
689* HeroOfAnotherStory: In ''Thracia 776.''
690* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Does a fine job of defending Manster from Thracia, yet believes he hasn't done enough.
691--> "Manster had a great number of children seized and sent to the shrine in Miletos. I was unable to prevent it... I'm not brave, sir. I'm a coward if anything."
692* InfinityMinusOneSword: With Lewyn as his father, he gets [[GameBreaker Forseti]] and insane stat growths.
693* LastStand: His dialogue with the villagers of Manster in his debut implies that if Seliph and his army hadn't made it there in time, pulling this off was Ced's intention.
694* LateArrivalSpoiler: [[spoiler:In ''Awakening's'' DLC, he wields Forseti, making it clear that he's canonically Lewyn's son even if one hasn't played ''Thracia 776''.]]
695* LeftHanging: He left his home in order to find his father. Unless his father is Lewyn, he will never reach a conclusion by the end of the final battle.
696* LegacyCharacter: He's named after the Crusader Ced, whom he may not be related to if his father's not Lewyn, in which GenerationXerox applies instead.
697* LightEmUp: The tome he'll always start with is the Light tome.
698* NiceGuy: Particularly if he's paired with Tine.
699* OneManArmy: Has been protecting Manster, alone, for a long time, and done an admirable job of it. It isn't GameplayAndStorySegregation either; Ced is a powerhouse regardless of his parentage. Add in Forseti and he can literally take out entire armies by himself.
700* RedBaron: "Ced the Brave." He doesn't much agree with the title.
701* TheStoic: Especially in the Nea Fuyuki manga, [[CallingTheOldManOut outbursts of anger to Lewyn]] aside.
702* StrongFamilyResemblance: ''Fire Emblem Heroes'' is mum on the identity of his father. However, he shares his artist with Lewyn, much like how many of the other second generation units share an artist with their parent, hinting at the identiy of Lewyn as his father.
703* {{Teleportation}}: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, like Lewyn (his father in said adaptation), he can teleport using the wind.
704* TranquilFury: PlayedForLaughs in the Nea Fuyuki manga, where an omake has him be as passive-aggressive as possible to Lewyn (his father) in response to Lewyn being, well, [[ParentsAsPeople not the greatest dad]].
705* WisePrince: If Lewyn is his father. [[spoiler:Which he canonically is in ''Thracia 776''.]]
706[[/folder]]
707
708[[AC:Children of Tailtiu]]
709[[folder:Both]]
710* AwesomeButImpractical: Throughout Fire Emblem with skills, there is some merit with the Vantage-Wrath combo, where the unit will counterattack with a powerful critical hit that'll kill any attackers, thus a valuable high-risk, high-reward tactic. However, the only two units that has the Vantage skill is Lex and Arden, unit that'll make terrible fathers for them due to their nonexistent magic growth, making their magical attack suffer in the long run.
711* CriticalStatusBuff: They both have the Wrath skill inherited from Tailtiu, this allows them to deal critical hit when their HP reaches under half of their maximum.
712* HeroicLineage: The minor-blooded descendants of Thrud, much like their mother.
713* ItsPersonal: They both have a bone to pick with Bloom and especially Hilda, as the latter is directly responsible of the death of their mother, and is proud of it too. Of course, the game allows you to kill them with a vengeance.
714* MagicKnight: Upon class changing, they get classes that allow the use of swords. Arthur gets the Mage Knight class while Tine gets the Mage Fighter class.
715* OrphansPlotTrinket: They both possess matching pendants from their mother. This is how they manage to reunite with each other.
716* ShockAndAwe: Due to their Thrud blood, they can use Thunder magic with more efficiency. However, only Tine will comes with a thunder spell and, ironically, cannot use Thoron due to having a lower rank (Mages have C in Thunder Magic compare to Thunder Mage's B without blood factoring in).
717* UnskilledButStrong: In terms of magic. If Tailtiu is paired with an father that favors magic growths, they have good magic growths in the long run, but don't have any noteworthy skills.
718* WeakButSkilled: On the other hand, pairing Tailtiu with Lex or Arden gives them the Wrath-Vantage combo. While certainly not practical as explained above, this will guaranteed that they will always attack first and if their HP is low, then they can perform critical hits like crazy (especially if Tailtiu is paired with Lex, as he passes down Paragon to his children). The fact that they can also wield swords makes it a good idea for them to wield physical weapons in the event a enemy has high resistance stats, due to both Lex and Arden favoring physical stats.

728
729The son of Tailtiu, who grew up in Silesse. Managed to escape from the Frieges and learned Wind Magic in spite of his thunder-magic-oriented heritage, and now he's back - with some bones to pick with his own family and the firm intention to get his baby sister back.
730
731----
732* AloofAlly: Due to his DarkAndTroubledPast, Arthur comes off more distant and only making contacts (dialogues) with just whoever he deems necessary: His sister, Seliph (whose army he's joining), Fee (the one who transported him all the way from Silesse to Isaach), and whoever is directly causing his suffering (most of the Friege house)
733* BelligerentSexualTension: With Fee, while she's transporting him over the mountains.
734* BlowYouAway: Since he was separated with his mother in Silesse, Arthur had to fend to himself and learn the native magic over there: Wind. That's why he came with Wind tome despite always having a Thrud blood. If his father is Lewyn... well, it's an extra beginning benefit in addition of wielding Forseti later.
735* BigBrotherInstinct: Towards Tine, especially if you don't pair either and get a special talk event with them in the final chapter.
736* BlueBlood: He has Thrud minor blood through his mother's side.
737* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, where he's silly outside of a battle but deadly in one. Implied to a degree within the game itself, with Fee noting that he didn't come across as very bright to her.
738* DeadpanSnarker: As can be seen here:
739-->'''Fee:''' What are you doing, Arthur?\
740'''Arthur:''' I'm fighting! What's it look like?! Must be nice to be so carefree.
741* DiscOneNuke: If you pair Tailtiu with Lewyn, he gets [[GameBreaker Forseti]] at the beginning of Generation 2.
742* FailedASpotCheck: Oddly enough, he fails to recognize ''his own princess'' if Fee is Lewyn's daughter. (Granted, it's not like she would have been on TV.)
743* ItsPersonal: To Bloom for what the man did to his family.
744* KnightTemplarBigBrother: PlayedForLaughs in the Nea Fuyuki manga, where an omake has him so overprotective of her that he chases anyone who wants to even ''talk'' to her.
745* LongLostSibling: To Tine.
746* MommasBoy: A sympathetic example. Having been separated from Tailtiu when he was a little boy, Arthur has Tailtiu's image on a pedestal and is set on paying back the Friege for her and Tine's suffering.
747* SugarAndIcePersonality: Fee refers to him as one.
748* TranquilFury: He might seem to take a cool side when addressing Hilda, but yes, he still wants her dead.
749-->''"Well, I'd rather not have my sister dirty her hands for this. So..."''
750* RecurringElement: Downplayed, he took after Arlen, being the distant mage who's not very social except to a select few, due to his upbringing.
751* UnstoppableRage: Gets '''pissed''' at Bloom for what he did to his [[BreakTheCutie sister]] [[spoiler:and [[KillTheCutie mother]]]]. Appropriately, he comes with the "Wrath" skill both in this game and in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening''. His reaction to Hilda is calmer, [[TranquilFury but he makes sure to let her know that he wants her dead]].

760'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuiIshikawa (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Creator/CourtneyLin (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'')
761
762Arthur's little sister and Tailtiu's daughter. She was raised in a very ill-tempered household, thus despite her high magical skills, she's very insecure and shy.
763----
764* ApologeticAttacker: As an enemy, if she attacks any of your units. As a playable unit, she'll apologize if she's made to attack Ishtar in Ch. 8 and Bloom in Ch. 7, although she sings a very different tune in Ch. 8 regarding the latter.
765* BadassAdorable: She's a powerful mage, and she's also the kind of person you just want to hug.
766* BewareTheNiceOnes: Oh yes, Tine is one of the sweetest and probably most shy and insecure girls in the 2nd gen. She also happens to have the most ''venomous'' battle quotes against people that pissed her off (both Hilda and Bloom). Bet you wouldn't expect that coming from this shy girl, if it wasn't for her harsh environment to grow up thanks to those two.
767* BlueBlood: Minor blood of Thrud though her mother Tailtiu.
768* BreakTheCutie: Was a witness to all the shit Tailtiu went through. [[spoiler:And Tailtiu herself went MamaBear and willingly took ''even more'' of Hilda's crap to protect her, even at her lowest.]] OUCH!
769* CharacterDevelopment: Starts out as a ShrinkingViolet. Ends as an assured SilkHidingSteel with a good dose of BewareTheNiceOnes. Part of the DeconReconSwitch appeal of the game means that Tine was having a reverse of her mother's CharacterDevelopment, where she started out in a depressing position of character, but eventually developing to be in a much healthier position.
770* HeelFaceTurn: She's not evil by any means, but her intimidating uncle kicks her onto the battlefield just after Seliph's army kills the two family members who were kindest to her. The player has to move Arthur ''fast'' to get her on the right side.
771* GenerationXerox: Defied. If paired with Seliph, he'll try to send her away to keep her safe, like Sigurd did for Deirdre, and she tells him she doesn't want to leave his side in case what happens to his parents happens to them. He backs down and apologizes.
772* IMissMom: Once deployed by Bloom, she expressed her confusion that she had to fight what she thought to be innocent Liberation Army that also killed Ishtore, one of the few people that were nice to her. In the end, she wished Tailtiu was there to advise her...
773* {{Irony}}: Let's look at this: Tine grew up being abused to hell and back by Hilda, who [[GoldDigger coveted the riches of being Queen/Empress of Granvalle by having her daughter Ishtar marry Julius]]. Tine is also a pre-destined pair with Seliph, having some conversations with him and so can likely attain the position of Granvalle's Empress when Seliph becomes Emperor. Meaning that by pairing her with Seliph, Tine will naturally attain what Hilda coveted but never really achieved. [[TakeThat Ha!]]
774* ItsPersonal: To Hilda and Bloom for [[spoiler:what they did to Tailtiu (or in Bloom's case, ''not'' doing anything)]].
775* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCbgtT7yXKw Aptly named after her too]]. While it played earlier for Tailtiu, it becomes more meaningful to Tine due to her rather depressing upbringing and the resulting shy personality.
776* LetsGetDangerous:
777** When she faces [[spoiler:Hilda]] head-on.
778** Also, when she first faced Bloom in Chapter 7, she was actually apologetic for the betrayal, possibly because he still have Mjolnir and would pound her flat. But once that tome is out of Bloom's hand (Ishtar took it) in the next chapter, Tine stops being apologetic and strikes him down while calling out that [[spoiler:he let Tailtiu die when he could prevent it.]]
779* NiceGirl: Even before joining the Liberation Army, Tine is known to sneak from Manster castle and help the innocents willingly when Bloom and the others pretty much act like tyrants to them.
780* OvershadowedByAwesome: While Arthur fathered by Lewyn will make him a complete GameBreaker, Tine will just be overshadowed because she lacks the book that makes Arthur so good, plus the lack of the Follow-up skill makes her follow-up much less reliable. When you already have an all-powerful mage, why use other ones?
781* RecurringElement: She took after Linde, being the young talented magician girl who [[spoiler:had her beloved family member killed by the bad guys, in particular in front of her.]] Her replacement is a straight up Expy.
782* ShrinkingViolet: Thanks in large part to her abusive aunt.
783* SilkHidingSteel: What she grows to be; it's especially notable if she's paired with Seliph, as she firmly puts her foot down and insists on staying with him when he tries to send her away for her own safety during their Endgame lovers convo.
784* UnstoppableRage: Much like Arthur, Tine was just ready to let it rip when facing Hilda, her shameless abuser. [[SlidingScaleOfGameplayAndStoryIntegration And it even seeps into the gameplay since she's on the winning side of the Magic Triangle (Thunder over Fire), so if she's properly trained, yes, Tine can't be stopped by Hilda.]]
785-->''"I pray that you're watching, mother... Because I'm going to kill Hilda!!"''
786* WhiteSheep: The good girl, from her corruped and evil extended family who allied with the evil empire, kept her a hostage and tortured her mother.

803
804Brigid's daughter, who became a thief to help feed the kids of the OrphanageOfLove she and her brother Febail were raised in.
805----
806* BelligerentSexualTension: With Lester and Coirpre. Their bickering results in a gain in love points.
807* BoringButPractical: Even if you didn't plan on making her a strong fighter through inheritance, she can still steal gold from an enemy unit and share it to any unit. Very useful for unarmed healers unable to earn gold to repair and buy their expensive staves.
808* BraidsOfAction: Keeps her blond hair in a long braid.
809* BreakTheCutie: Much like Fee, she does ''not'' take it well if her husband dies. The epilogue has her asking Seliph for a hug after admitting she doesn't know where to go from there.
810* DitzyGenius: Ditzy enough to try to eat lunch with her husband ''on a battlefield'', genius enough to steal the Balmung right out from the Loptr's noses.
811* DressingAsTheEnemy: She infiltrates an enemy hideout in the desert by diguising herself as one of the DesertBandits.
812* FanGirl: Of Seliph, as she gets excited to see him. And Shannan, whom she's admired for quite a while. In fact, when he catches her stealing the Balmung and reveals his identity to her, she starts fangirling over him ''right there'' and he has to remind her that she's got his sword.
813* FragileSpeedster: Being a thief, she has high speeds but her strength and defense can be lacking.
814* GenkiGirl: Every piece of official art depicts her with a big grin; given the faces on the other characters (including her brother's) she rather stands out.
815* GoldDigger: Portrayed as this in the Nea Fuyuki manga. [[spoiler:She comically fails at this, and ultimately can't help but fall in love and hook up with the poor-as-a-church-mouse Lester]].
816* GuileHero: In the Oosawa manga she comes up with a complex scheme to help Mareeta escape from Bloom and get Eyvel's petrified body away before he can shatter it out of spite.
817* HiddenDepths: She's actually quite responsible, and chews her brother out for siding with Bloom for money.
818* JustLikeRobinHood: When Seliph balks at accepting her stolen funds, she points out that the Imperials are far worse plunderers. She has a similar argument with Febail later and says she isn't doing it for fun, it's because the army ''needs'' funds and she can't waste time caring about what people say about it.
819* MagikarpPower: As a thief, she lacks Pursuit until she can class change to Rogue. Though if her father had Pursuit, then she'll instead benefit from the stat boost from the class change.
820* MayDecemberRomance: If paired with the quite older Oifey or Shannan.
821* OlderThanTheyLook: A conversation with Coirpre in Chapter 9 suggests this.
822-->'''Patty''': You said I look like a CHILD?!
823* ParentalSubstitute: Sorta. She was raised in an orphanage, and became a thief to help feed the kids there. Think of a CoolBigSis with a part-time job, only said job is theft.
824* ReallyRoyaltyReveal: She and Febail had no idea their mother was nobility.
825* StreetSmart: She is a girl that used to steal to survive and is completely unapologetic about it.
826* SupremeChef: Shown as this in all of her Epilogue love talks. The various 4-Koma manga tend to go [[LethalChef the other way]] for RuleOfFunny purposes.
827* RagsToRoyalty:
828** Patty lived as a thief her whole life, despite being Brigid's daughter. If she is paired with Seliph she will became Empress of Grannvale.
829** If Patty is paired with Ares, Shannan, or Lewyn's son she will became queen of their respective kindgoms.
830** If she is paired with Oifey, Arthur or Amid she can possibly turn a duchess or live comfortably as a noble.
831** Likewise, if Fabail either dies or inherits their father's lands, Patty will be the one to inherit their mother's duchy, instead.
832%%* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: This trope is evoked if Patty romances Seliph, Shannan or other serious characters like Ares or Ced.
833* ThroughHisStomach: Her cooking features in all her late game love talks.
834* WeakButSkilled: She's not very combat viable unless you give her Lex or Chulainn as a father, but she comes with a [[StatusEffects Sleep Sword]] and, as your only thief, has plenty of utility purposes.

844
845Brigid's son with major Ullr blood and huge archery skills. Was tricked into joining Friege's army, so he has to be brought into the group by Patty.
846----
847* AncestralWeapon: He inherits Yewfelle... unfortunately for the player, who might find it difficult to recruit him while keeping their units alive, seeing as how he starts off as an enemy who stands a ''very'' good chance of killing any unit he attacks.
848* ApologeticAttacker: If he attacks any of your units as an enemy, he'll apologize as a PunchClockVillain. He'll also apologize to Bloom if you recruit him and make him turn on the man, although with a lot more questionable sincerity this time.
849* BigBrotherInstinct: Bloom plays on Febail's worry over Patty, offering to pay him enough that Patty won't have to go out and steal things anymore. And Febail doesn't react well to hearing people badmouth his sister or mother, either.
850--> “Yeah, well, I caught a guy making fun of you. He said 'It's no wonder you became a thief with a pirate for a mum'. Of course, I floored the guy for saying that.”
851* FriendToAllChildren: A conversation with Lana reveals him to be this, even if he denies it.
852* GenerationXerox: If his father was Jamke, then his recruitment where he ends up fighting against Seliph's army against his better judgement mirrors his father when he was recruited into Sigurd's army.
853* HeelFaceTurn: He starts off being hired by Bloom to deal with the liberation army and has to be recruited by Patty, who calls him out for working for the same empire that was responsible for orphaning several children at the orphanage they grew up in.
854* MartialArtsHeadband: A blue one.
855* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
856** The first thing he says to Seliph is an apology for working for the Empire he and his sister have been trying to oppose, calling himself "shamefully half-witted" for the lapse in judgment.
857** In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he has a moment after shooting Lester, whom he then realizes to be Patty's ally and LoveInterest.
858* ParentalSubstitute: Like Patty, he looks after the orphans. This is what leads him to fight for Bloom despite clearly not wanting to.
859* PunchClockVillain: He starts off as one.
860* ReallyRoyaltyReveal: He and Patty didn't know about their mother's noble origins until Lewyn told them.
861* RecurringElement: Just like his mother, he's the second generation's 'super archer' wielding a powerful bow like Jeorge (in Febail's case, the Yewfelle).
862* WouldntHitAGirl: In the Nea Fuyuki manga, he purposely avoids shooting lethally at Fee for this reason (that, and more importantly, he doesn't like mindless killing).

868* HeroicLineage: The minor-blood descendant of Bragi, much like their mother.
869* SupportPartyMember: They are merely support units; nothing more, nothing less. Though, while Coirpre can only wields staves as he starts as a basic Priest, if his father is Lewyn, he could wield the powerful Forseti upon class changing.
870* UnknownRelative: Neither Lene nor Coirpre recognizes each other as kin in their conversation. [[GameplayAndStorySegregation Not that it matters]] because neither of them can pair up with each other like other siblings and, depending on certain pairings, recognized as heirs of another house which should imply their relation. It much more plausible with their replacement, unable to pair with each other notwithstanding.

877->'''Class:''' Dancer\
878'''Holy blood:'''[[labelnote:*]]default, not considering Lene's father's blood[[/labelnote]] Bragi [Minor]\
879'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MikakoTakahashi (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Creator/FayeMata (English, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'')
880
881A beautiful dancer and Ares's companion and friend. She is the lost daughter of Silvia, raised in a convent and away from her brother Coirpre.
882----
883* AdaptedOut: The way Ares meets Seliph in the Nea Fuyuki manga is different from the game, so Lene doesn't appear in that particular adaptation, though strangely her brother does, if only briefly.
884* AntiGravityClothing: Her thick striped scarf is always seen floating.
885* BrokenBird: Can be quite cynical compared to the other girls in the army, and is revealed to have ''serious'' abandonment and self-esteem issues.
886* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Like her mother.
887* DanceBattler: Her profession is dancing.
888* DependingOnTheArtist: Her sprite, Super Tactics Book, and ''Heroes'' depicts her wearing pink, while the OCG (see above) shows her wearing purple and the Treasure artwork has her wearing orange. In ''Cipher'', while her actual card depicts her wearing pink, a cameo in a Julia card depicts her wearing purple.
889* EliteManCourtesanRomance: This dynamic is evoqued if Lene romances Seliph, Ares, Shannan, or Oifey who are noblemen by default. While she is not a exactly a courtesan, her profession as dancer can be seen as so by others, and frowned upon by outsiders who don't respect her occupation.
890* FanServicePack: Her ''Heroes'' design significantly upgrades her appearance, making her far more busty and her design accomdates to show off her new look. While she wasn't bad looking originally, just compare [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/1/16/Leen_%28FE_Treasure%29.png/revision/latest?cb=20160810122447 her original appearance]], to her [[https://i.imgur.com/iZlrHyG.jpg ''Heroes'' artwork]].
891* MysteriousProtector: If her father is [[spoiler:Lewyn]], she will tell him that she's always felt someone has been watching over her, and wonder if that protector was her dad. [[spoiler:Knowing Lewyn, she very well might be right about that.]]
892* PreMortemOneLiner: In ''Heroes''.
893-->"Have it your way!"\
894"So rude!"\
895"Do whatever you please!"\
896"You rat!"
897* RapeAsDrama: It's ambiguous if it was AttemptedRape or not, but [[spoiler:she was certainly attacked in this fashion at Bramsel's hands]].
898* RescueRomance: If paired with Seliph or Ares.
899* SorryThatImDying: To Ares, if she's killed.
900* SpoonyBard: Just like her mother. She can rejuvenate other fighters and give them another turn, but she isn't really cut out for combat.
901* {{Stripperiffic}}: Part of her job as a dancer.
902* TellMeAboutMyFather: She asks this to [[spoiler:Lewyn]] in Chapter 10, [[spoiler:if he is her and Coirpre's father]]. He can't say a lot for obvious reasons, but will assure her that her parents love her and will come back for her someday.
903* TheTease: In her conversation with Seliph in which she teases him for being flustered in her presence.
904* {{Tsundere}}: Slightly, to Ares. She likes him, but she hates his position of wanting to join the war to kill Seliph and members or the resistance.
905* SecondLove: It's implied she has feelings for Ares, but she can move on and marry someone else, implying DifferingPrioritiesBreakup

909[[folder:Coirpre ''(Corpul, Corple, Cairpre)'']]
910[[quoteright:143:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/corpulfe4.png]]
911->'''Class:''' Priest\
912'''Holy blood:'''[[labelnote:*]]default, not considering Coirpre's father's blood[[/labelnote]] Bragi [Minor]
913
914Silvia's youngest kid, who was raised by General Hannibal... and used as a hostage by his adoptive father's boss, King Travant.
915----
916* AwesomeButImpractical: One way to have Coirpre access to Paragon (aside from buying the Paragon Ring, which is expensive) is by having Lex as his father, but doing so hampers his magic growth, since healing calculations rely on the magic stat to be more effective.
917* DeadpanSnarker: Lambasts Patty/Daisy's childish attitude. His response to Patty's quote in OlderThanTheyLook?
918-->'''Coirpre:''' [[BluntYes Yeah, I am]].
919* DistressedDude: Is taken hostage as a means of forcing his adoptive father Hannibal into battle.
920* HappilyAdopted: By Hannibal.
921* LateCharacterSyndrome: Most players deem him not worth the effort and relegate him to spamming Physic from as far away as possible. (Unless his dad is Claud, that is; then he can have the [[BackFromTheDead Valkyrie staff]] and handle healing and reviving, while he leaves the Forseti to Ced or Arthur). It really doesn't help that he has to grind 19 levels before he can begin to do anything other than heal, and that Charlot has Paragon and the Berserk Staff to speed up that process. [[note]](Though if he's given the Fortify Staff, which not only heals well but gives more EXP, the process will be further sped up.)[[/note]]
922* MagikarpPower: With Azelle or Lewyn as his father, he can become quite a powerful magic unit.
923* NotBloodSiblings: Any girl he's paired with will say he's going to be like a cute little brother.
924* OlderThanTheyLook: Although his real age is a little unclear (see below), dialogue indicates that he's got a babyface and he knows it.
925* StrongFamilyResemblance: If Claud is his father, which is very easy to achieve, Coirpre looks like a younger version of him.
926* VagueAge: He's a WhiteMage who is strongly implied to be no older than 14 in ''Thracia 776'' [[spoiler:he gets caught in the Child Hunts (which are against children/pre-teens in the 7-13 age range)]], yet at the same time he's also born and adopted not too long after the Battle of Belhalla, which would put his age around the age of 16. It's also plausible that he was caught in the Child Hunts because he ''looks'' 13 despite really being older.
927* WhiteMage: He's a healer and joins with an '''A''' staff level, meaning he can be given the most powerful staves right from the start.

929
930!!Replacements for Children
931
932[[folder:In General]]
933* AdaptedOut: Given their roles as generally weaker replacements with less story relevancy, they rarely appear in future ''Genealogy'' related material. Jeanne, Asaello, Daisy and Hermina were set to appear in ''Thracia 776'' as given they have retouched portraits in the game's files, but their appearance was cut. They don't appear in the mangas, save for Creidne and Dalvin who show up in the Oosawa one. None of them appeared as recruitable Einherjar in ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Awakening]]'' unlike some of the proper second generation characters. A number of them like Laylea or Tristan managed to get cards in ''TabletopGame/FireEmblemCipher'', though not all of them did prior to the card game's discontinuation. None of them have appeared in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'' either, while the vast majority of the characters they replace have been implemented and some even have alternate versions.
934* LethalJokeCharacter: Most of the substitutes are worse than the children, but, depending on who the fathers are, Deimne, Hawk, and Charlot can be better than Lester, Ced, and Coirpre respectively if you get the substitutes' secret/training events.
935* OvershadowedByAwesome: The substitute characters are often overlooked by many players because the children are much more superior due to inheritance giving them better stats and inventory. While some substitutes can be better than their counterparts, like Deimne and Charlot, others, like Creidne and Dalvin, has to compete with their counterparts who are considered more superior units.
936* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: This is their purpose, filling the gameplay roles that the original children would have had. Especially Amid and Linda, since they have holy blood (minor Thrud) as well. Although most of them get additional unique dialogue to give them individual personality, they otherwise share scripts with the characters they replace.
937* TrainingMontage: There's a few secret events that require specific conditions to be met in order for them to be more viable. These events boost the stats of many of the Substitute children and often involve a training montage, sometimes they even play out as mock battles on the field. The events require specific characters to talk to each other and some of the training even requires one or both to stay under leveled, making it useful, but difficult to discover.
938* YouKilledMyFather: In story, their mothers and fathers were retainers and/or warriors associated to Sigurd and Co. (or to Eldigan, since Tristan and Jeanne's DisappearedDad was one of Eldigan's Cross Knights); they were killed off either during the war or shortly thereafter, so their kids join the Liberation Army for their sake. [[spoiler:For Amid and Linda, their dad ''was'' killed off... and their mom was Ethnia, Bloom and Tailtiu's dead little sister, who was abused by Hilda until she died.]]

941[[AC:Replacements of Edain's children]]
942[[folder:Muirne ''(Mana)'']]
943[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/muirne.jpg]]
944->'''Class:''' Priest
945
946A civilian girl from Issac who was raised alongside Seliph and trained (presumably by Edain) in staff use. Replaces Lana if Edain didn't have children.
947----
948* BadassNormal: On some level. This girl is a completely normal human being, with not a drop of fancy divine blood in her, and she's a ''field medic'', not a fighter, and she'll still march to war to free her homeland and the continent alongside the guy she loves and fight in a conflict between what nearly amounts to demi-gods, especially once the Divine Weapons come out to play. She's still [[CowardlyLion scared out of her mind doing it]], mind you, but she'll ''do it''.
949* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With either Seliph, Scathach , Deirmud, Tristan, Dalvin or Oifey, with whom she grew up together in the orphanage.
950* CowardlyLion: In her secret conversation with Seliph, she admits that while she wanted to help Seliph, she can't help but be afraid of continuing in such a terrible war. [[BirdsOfAFeather Seliph comforts her since he also knows how that feels.]]
951* DevelopersDesiredDate: While Seliph ''can'' marry almost any woman in the second generation[[note]]Julia requires exploiting a glitch and Altenna is both Seliph's cousin and already spoken for[[/note]], Muirne is the only girl with whom he has a default love rating of one hundred, while every other option starts at zero.
952* HairColorDissonance: Her various artworks go in and out on whether she has brown or black hair. In-game, it's black.
953* HeroicSelfDeprecation: She has an affection towards Seliph, but feels that she's not good enough for him since she isn't royalty.
954* ProperLady: Looks the part well but other parts, not as well.
955* PluckyGirl: Just like Lana, Muirne dislikes being on the sidelines. [[ShrinkingViolet She's a little more shy about it, though.]]
956* RagsToRoyalty: If she is paired with someone of noble ancestry, like Seliph, Ares, Ced, Oifey, Shannan, Arthur or Amid. In Muirne's case it's particularly acentuated since her being a commoner is motive of suffering for her.
957* StarCrossedLovers: She angsts a bit regarding her budding love towards Seliph, due to [[UptownGirl their total opposite social classes.]] Logically, if they're paired up, this will be subverted.
958* UnkemptBeauty: She's surprisingly nice looking for a girl with unkempt hair and a demure face.
959* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: She has a crush on Seliph, but he can fall in love with anyone else in the cast. If this happen, and specially if she doesn't isn't paired with anyone else, she is the perfect example of this trope.
960[[/folder]]
961
962[[folder:Deimne ''(Dimna)'']]
963[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/deimne.jpg]]
964->'''Class:''' Arch Knight
965
966A young archer from Isaach as well as Muirne's brother. Replaces Lester if Edain didn't have children.
967
968----
969* BadassNormal: Despite being a substitute with no Holy Blood, his event with Karen gives him enough Strength to keep him relevant for the majority of the game. Pass him a Brave Bow and he's set to go; some players consider him better than Lester – a Holy Blood – because of this.
970* BreakHerHeartToSaveHer: He warns Muirne not to get attached to Seliph knowing full well she has a crush on him. Subverted by the fact that it can still happen regardless of this.
971* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With either Larcei or Creidne if paired with them.
972* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Brown hair, brown eyes.
973* HorseArcher: As to be expected of Lester's SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute.
974* NiceGuy: One of the most soft-spoken guys you'll see in Seliph's army.
975* ShrinkingViolet: His shyness and inferiority complexes are a constant theme for him.
976* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Looks quite a bit like Roderick from ''[[Videogame/FireEmblemMysteryOfTheEmblem Mystery of the Emblem]]''.
977* RagsToRoyalty: If he is paired with any girl of noble ancestry, like Nanna, Larcei, Patty, Tine, Fee or Linda.
978* TallDarkAndHandsome
979* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: An old friend of his is at Isaach castle who gives him her pendant as a good luck charm. Due to her being an NPC and Deimne can be paired with any of the female characters, she never gets to let Deimne know of her feelings for him.
980[[/folder]]
981
982[[AC:Replacements of Ayra's children]]
983[[folder:Creidne ''(Radney)'']]
984[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/creidne.jpg]]
985->'''Class:''' Swordfighter
986
987A beautiful but skittish swordwoman from Isaach, and Seliph's other female friend. Replaces Larcei if Ayra didn't have children.
988----
989* AscendedExtra: She and Dalvin ''do'' appear in the Oosawa manga. [[spoiler:Her appearance, however, is [[PosthumousCharacter post-mortem]]: she died in a HeroicSacrifice to save Seliph, Lana and Larcei.]]
990* BadassNormal: Even if Creidne simply cannot match Larcei, she isn't ''completely'' useless. Her only skill is the VERY sought after Pursuit ''and'' she has decent Strength growths, so at least she'll get her share of work more or less done.
991* CoolBigSis: She was one to Seliph, Larcei and Lana in the Oosawa manga. [[spoiler:The three (plus Dalvin) still blame themselves for her death.]]
992* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With either Seliph, Deirmud, Tristan, Deimne, Febail, Asaello, or Oifey, with whom she grew up together in the orphanage.
993* DoesNotLikeMen: Creidne hates men so much [[BrokenBird due to the Dozelian brutality towards young women]] that she has ''two'' conversations about that. One is when she almost freaks out against Iuchar or Iucharba when one of them stands too close for several turns, another when Dalvin mentions her reasons to not like men.
994* PluckyGirl: Very stubborn and resourceful. [[spoiler:In the Oosawa manga Seliph recalls that before she sacrificed herself for him, Larcei and Lana, she was smiling brightly and reassuring him.]]
995* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Part of her distrust of men can be traced to how the Dozelian occupation treats women, putting her on edge with most men outside her group. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, in the Oosawa manga, Lana's inner monologue after recalling Creidne's HeroicSacrifice all but states that Creidne was raped before the Dozelian troops executed her. She also adds that every girl associated with LaResistance is liable to have this happen to her. [[note]](Though oddly, there's no evidence of Larcei being raped while imprisoned, most likely ''only'' because she's the niece of Dannan.)[[/note]]]]
996* RagsToRoyalty: If she is paired with someone of noble ancestry, like Seliph, Ares, Ced, Oifey, Shannan, Arthur or Amid.
997* {{Tomboy}}: If not ''even more so'' than Larcei: Creidne promotes into a Hero, an almost exclusively-male class (with Machyua of ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776 Thracia 776]]'' and Echidna of ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBindingBlade The Binding Blade]]'' as the only other exceptions, until ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'' opened the Mercenary/Hero line up to females again and introduced the first female character whose starting class is actually "Mercenary".)
998* {{Tsundere}}: She's a bit rougher around the edges than Larcei.
999[[/folder]]
1000
1001[[folder:Dalvin ''(Roddlevan)'']]
1002[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dalvin.jpg]]
1003->'''Class:''' Swordfighter
1004
1005Creidne's levelheaded older brother, and an Isaachian swordman. Replaces Scáthach if Ayra didn't have children.
1006----
1007* AscendedExtra: He and Creidne show up in the Oosawa manga. [[spoiler:The two were members of LaResistance, but Creidne was killed and some time later he was captured and beaten to almost death. Shannan rescued him and took him to safety. [[FaceHeelTurn But then...]].]]
1008* BadassNormal: Just like his sister he's a powerful unit by substitute standards.
1009* ButtMonkey: In his conversation with Tristan he frets about getting stuck with guard duty if he doesn't improve, sorta like Arden.
1010* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With either Lana or Muirne.
1011* DespairEventHorizon: In the Oosawa manga, after [[spoiler:Ceridne's HeroicSacrifice]] ''and'' [[spoiler:being the SoleSurvivor of his squad]], Dalvin simply never was the same.
1012* TheGadfly: He seems to enjoy getting a rise out of people, as his conversation with Creidne has him teasing her for her crush on Shannan, while his hidden event with Tristan has him lampshading how the latter is starting to fall behind.
1013* TheGenericGuy: Dalvin is comparatively average-looking put next to many of the other characters.
1014* MyGreatestFailure: In the Oosawa manga, he has ''never'' been able to forgive himself for [[spoiler:the loss of his younger sister.]] Then it turns out to be worse: [[spoiler:he's so broken that he has a FaceHeelTurn since he blames Seliph and Co. for it, which causes him to reveal Seliph's location and causes a whole village near Edain's abbey to be slaughtered.]]
1015* RagsToRoyalty: If he is paired with any girl of noble ancestry, like Lana, Patty, Tine, Larcei, Fee, Nanna or Linda.
1016* SoleSurvivor: [[spoiler:Of an anti-Dozelian group. All of them were captured, enslaved and tortured; Dalvin was barely alive when Shannan found him.]]
1017* StrikeMeDownWithAllOfYourHatred: Subverted, [[spoiler:Dalvin tells that to Seliph as he's captured and almost lynched by Seliph's supporters. While Seliph ''does'' execute him, he [[ShutUpHannibal turns this trope in its head]] by vowing to make the continent a better place and fight to break the tyranny. The guy's ''actual'' last words are him asking Seliph if he will truly keep his word (and Seliph promises that he will), and before he [[FaceDeathWithDignity tearfully but calmly dies at the end of Seliph's blade]], he thinks of his sister's faith in the rebellion.]]
1018* TallDarkAndHandsome: Has the common Isaachian swordsman build, which makes him this by default.
1019* VitriolicBestBuds: With Tristan. Their secret event even has them training together after a rather playful argument.

1025->'''Class:''' Troubadour
1026
1027Youngest daughter of the late Cross Knight Eve, raised by Finn after a turbulent early life. Replaces Nanna if Lachesis didn't have children.
1028----
1029* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Leif, if she is paired with him.
1030* HappilyAdopted: ''Twice''. After her father perished, she was taken in by a local merchant (and separated from Tristan at the same time). However, her kind adoptive dad was killed too when she was about 7 years old, and ''then'' Finn adopted her and raised her with Leif.
1031* PinkIsFeminine: Her dress is white and pink.
1032* PluckyGirl: She doesn't let her early life [[BreakTheCutie get to her head]].
1033* RagsToRoyalty: If she is paired with someone of noble ancestry, like Seliph, Ares, Ced, Oifey, Shannan, Arthur or Amid.
1034* WhiteMage: What a troubadour usually does.

1042Eldest son of the dead Cross Knight Eve and the brother of Jeanne, raised by Edain. Replaces Diarmuid if Lachesis didn't have children.
1043----
1044* ChildhoodFriendRomance: If paired with either Larcei, Muirne, Creidne or Lana, who grew in the monastery with him.
1045* CriticalHitClass: He has Critical as a personal skill, allowing him to perform critical hits without needing a weapon with a 50-kill bonus, a combination bonus from a lover, or the Wrath skill.
1046* GenerationXerox: He becomes one of Ares' most loyal knights if they both survive to the ending, much like how Eve was this to Eldigan.
1047* HappilyAdopted: To the soon-to-be rebellion in Isaach.
1048* LongLostRelative: Like with Diarmuid, Jeanne had no idea he existed.
1049* OnlySaneMan: To Dalvin's antics.
1050* RagsToRoyalty: If he is paired with any girl of noble ancestry, like Lana, Patty, Tine or Linda.

1060A Sigurd and Erinys fangirl who has just achieved her dream to be a Pegasus Knight. Replaces Fee if Erinys didn't have children.
1061----
1062* AscendedFangirl: Sorta. While she obviously doesn't get to fight with her idols, Hermina ''does'' get to join Sigurd's son in his quests. If you pair her and Seliph up, she can even become Sigurd's daughter-in-law.
1063* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Green hair and eyes.
1064* DeadGuyJunior: Not her, but her pegasus mount is named after Annand, a famed knight in Silesse.
1065* FanGirl: She was an Erinys and Sigurd fan, and became a Pegasus Knight to follow their example.
1066-->'''Hawk:''' So you joined the liberation army, did you?\
1067'''Hermina:''' Yep. I wanted to help out Sir Seliph.\
1068'''Hawk:''' Hmph... I'm not surprised. You've admired his father ever since you were little.\
1069'''Hermina:''' Yeah. My dream has always been to become a Pegasus Knight just like Erinys was. You just watch... I'm gonna make it!
1070* FragileSpeedster
1071* GenkiGirl: Just like Fee, Hermina JumpedAtTheCall to join Seliph's army.
1072* PluckyGirl: Like Fee, she isn't very worried about finding her brother because she's sure she'll run into him eventually.
1073* RagsToRoyalty: If she is paired with someone of noble ancestry, like Seliph, Ares, Oifey, Shannan, Arthur or Amid.

1080A talented and famous magician, as well as Hermina's brother. Replaces Ced if Erinys didn't have children.
1081----
1082* ChronicHeroSyndrome: As a SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute of Ced, Hawk also shares his biggest flaw.
1083* LightEmUp: Just like Ced, he starts with the Light tome.
1084* LeftHanging: His motivation to look for his father never gets resolved. Considering that his line is identical to Ced, who has Lewyn as his potential father, it was never going to reach any conclusions.
1085* OneManArmy: He's Ced's substitute, and depending on the father of Ced he can actually be better than Ced.
1086%%* OvershadowedByAwesome: Stat-wise, he's one of the better substitutes and a good character in his own right, but has the bad luck of being the replacement of Ced (whose main advantage is the holy blood and possibly inheriting Forseti or the Valkyrie Staff).
1087* RagsToRoyalty: If he is paired with any girl of noble ancestry, like Nanna, Larcei, Lana, Patty, Tine or Linda.

1099----
1100* BlowYouAway: He ''did'' grow up in Silesse, after all. Amid's a notable case, as he's the only playable Wind Mage in the game.
1101* BlackMage: A family business.
1102* BlueBlood: He has Thrud blood, making him at least minor nobility.
1103* HeroicLineage: Notable for being one of only two substitute characters to have Holy Blood, the other being his sister Linda (both minor Thrud).
1104* MagicKnight: He promotes into the male variation of War Mage.
1105* MasterOfNone: An issue he suffers especially later on. He starts as a Wind Mage, but he has minor Thrud blood, meaning he can't use the higher tier thunder magic until promotion and can only use wind magic, but even once promoted he's overshadowed by Linda and Ced/Hawk who can put any resources you give to him to better use with their better skills and stats.

1112->'''Class:''' Thunder Mage\
1113'''Holy blood:''' Thrud [Minor]
1114
1115A sweet mage from the House of Friege, and Amid's little sister. Replaces Tine if Tailtiu didn't have children.
1116----
1117* ActionSurvivor: Was mostly a hostage in her family's noble house, and needed to wistness her mother being tortured by her aunt.
1118* BlackMage: She's actually a Friege, so this is the family business.
1119* BreakTheCutie: Was a witness to all the torturas her mother, Ethnia, went through in the Hansa of her aunt Hilda.
1120* DefectorFromDecadence: She abandons her corrupted noble house to side with the Liberation Army.
1121%%zce* DomesticAbuse: She endured it through the hands of Hilda.
1122* HeroicLineage: Notable for being one of only two substitute characters to have Holy Blood, the other being her brother Amid (both minor Thrud).
1123* ShockAndAwe: She's a Thunder Mage, and she has minor Thrud blood from her mother.
1124* SilkHidingSteel: Linda is sweet and humble, but less shy than Tine. She's also a thunder mage, with raw power almost equalling [[spoiler:her aunt]] Tailtiu's.
1125* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: In addition to being Tine's replacement character, she's also somewhat of a substitute of [[Characters/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight the first and third games' Linde]], which is lampshaded by recurring character Jake in a conversation. In addition, just like Tine, she inherits Linde's trait of [[spoiler:witnessing her parental figure (mother, in her case) killed by the bad guys]].
1126* YouKilledMyFather: She and Amid want revenge on [[spoiler:Hilda]], on behalf of the deceased [[spoiler:Ethnia]].
1127%%zce* WhiteSheep: From her corrupted and evil extended family.

1131[[folder:Daisy]]
1132[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/daisy_8.jpg]]
1133->'''Class:''' Thief
1134
1135A civilian girl who has taken up stealing from the rich to help the OrphanageOfLove she was raised in. Replaces Patty if Brigid didn't have children.
1136----
1137* AngstWhatAngst: When it's commented that people without royal blood like Daisy may be useless in this war, Daisy is extremely optimistic and oblivious to the class difference issue.
1138* BadassNormal: An orphan, a thief with no special blood, or lineage, but that doesn't mean she can't fight.
1139* DependingOnTheArtist:
1140** She is seen wearing pink/magenta in her sprite, TCG, and Cipher artwork but is depicted wearing orange in her Treasure artwork and cut portrait in Thracia 776.
1141** She looks like a bit older than Patty but nonetheless is still a teenager. [[https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Daisy?file=Daisy_%28Super_Tactics_Book%29.png Her portrait in the Super Tactics Book]] however has her look much more like an adult woman.
1142* DressingAsTheEnemy: She dresses as a {{Desert Bandit|s}} in order to infiltrate the enemy's hideout in the desert and steal the sword.
1143%%ZCE* FanGirl: Of Shannan, and Seliph; just like Patty.
1144-->'''Daisy''': My personal lesson with Shannan! [[{{Squee}} WHEEEE!]]
1145* FragileSpeedster: Her only good stat is speed. She has low HP and defense and is completely lacking in strength. She has 3 base strength and ''10'' strength growth, so it will almost never grow.
1146* GenkiGirl: Is a very excited thief who is capable of stealing loads of money from enemy units.
1147* HeroWorshipper: A downplayed version. She gets excited upon meeting princd Seliph and rhe swordsman Shannan.
1148* HiddenDepths: Like Patty, she's more responsible than she seems, and warns Asaello about wasting his arena money.
1149* MagikarpPower: As a thief, she lacks Follow-Up skill and good offensive stats until she can class change to Rogue
1150* PluckyGirl: Despite being an orphan in the middle of a Titanic war, she keeps a positive outcome
1151* RagsToRoyalty: She lived her entire life in an orphanage and resorted to thievery to survive. Though, if Daisy romances Seliph she will became Empress of Grannvale.
1152** If Daisy is paired with Ares, Shannan, or Lewyn's son she will became queen of their respective kindgoms.
1153** If she is paired with Oifey, Arthur or Amid she can possibly turn a duchess or live comfortably as a noble.
1154%%* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: This trope is evoked if Daisy romances Seliph, Shannan or even serious characters like Ares or Ced.
1155* StreetSmart: Despite her cheerful personality, she is a girl that is used to steal for survival reasons.
1156* ThePollyanna: Daisy is always optimistic and seems to be the only substitute children that don't care in any way for the fact that she is a comonner.
1157* WomanChild: She looks older than Patty, but she acts very childish sometimes.

1160[[folder:Asaello]]
1161[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/asaello.jpg]]
1162->'''Class:''' Bow Fighter
1163
1164A talented and well-known archer known as the Hitman of Conote, and Daisy's brother. Replaces Febail if Brigid didn't have children.
1165----
1166* BadassNormal: There's a reason people fear him, he may lack holy blood but he makes up for it with his excellent marksmanship.
1167* EyesAlwaysShut: [[ZigzaggedTrope Zigzagged]], his official artwork and unused portrait in ''Thracia'' has his eyes closed, but his in-game portrait and trading card artwork have them open.
1168* FireForgedFriends: With Seliph. He hates all royalty and nobles with a passion after his and Daisy's parents were killed, caught under two fires during the Thracia-Manster wars, but still, on his own admission in the ending, came to like him.
1169* FriendToAllChildren: Adults dislike and fear him thanks to his reputation as an assassin, but children love him. And he loves them back, doing his hardest to make money with mercenary work for the orphanage he holds with his sister Daisy.
1170* HatesRichPeople: or rather, hates the nobles, with a reseonable justificativa seeing that he was born in poverty and most nobles in power through the story, are corrupted.
1171* HitmanWithAHeart: He's an assassin who terrifies people with his very presence, yet seeing people run away from him in fear makes him contemplative and melancholy.
1172* IJustWantToBeSpecial: In the last chapter, if he's paired with Muirne, he will have a conversation with her where he'll tell her how frustrated he is at being powerless in this battle, and wishes he could have just a little Crusader blood in him.
1173* OvershadowedByAwesome: This is done powerfully through the SlidingScaleOfGameplayAndStoryIntegration. Asaello is a competent enough assassin to have earned himself a RedBaron nickname. Yet his stats, while decent, pale in comparison to most of your other units by the time you get him, especially when compared to the Holy Blood characters in your army. Even the child he replaces, Febail, at least gets the Yewfelle bow; Asaello gets nothing. This directly ties into his character arc, in which he wrestles with his lack of Holy Blood and his part to play in the war as a commoner.
1174* RagsToRoyalty: If he is paired with any girl of noble ancestry, like Nanna, Lana, Lene, Tine or Linda.
1175* RedBaron: "Hitman of Conote".

1178[[AC:Replacements of Silvia's children]]
1179[[folder:Laylea ''(Leilia, Leyla, Layla)'']]
1180[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/laylea.jpg]]
1181->'''Class:''' Dancer
1182
1183A beautiful and sorta cynical dancer who works with Ares. Replaces Lene if Silvia didn't have children.
1184----
1185* BrokenBird: Suffers from the same thing as Lene.
1186* CoolSword: Barrier Sword. Laylea is the only character able to get this sword.
1187* DanceBattler: Her profession is basically dancing.
1188* DependingOnTheArtist: She's usually depicted wearing orange clothing, but her Treasure artwork depicts her wearing white.
1189* EliteManCourtesanRomance: This dynamic is evoqued if Laylea romances Seliph, Ares, Shannan, or Oifey who are noblemen by default. While she is not a exactly a courtesan, her profession as dancer can be seen as so by others, and frowned upon by outsiders who don't respect her occupation.
1190* GlassCannon: Her Strength growth is surprisingly great for a Dancer, but her Defense and Resistance are terrible in return (though she can make it up for the latter by having the Barrier Sword equipped)
1191* LongLostRelative: To Charlot, and unlike Lene and Coirpre, they never find out that they're related.
1192* RapeAsDrama: Since she takes Lene's role in the story, [[spoiler:she's the one who Bramsel attacks.]]
1193* RagsToRoyalty: If he is paired with someone of noble ancestry, like Seliph, Ares, Oifey, Shannan, Arthur or Amid.
1194* RescueRomance: If paired with Seliph or Ares.
1195* SpoonyBard: She's not really suited for combat, but she can give units an extra turn.
1196* SupportPartyMember: She is a dancer so she could refresh allies to move again and she comes with Charm, a skill that boost allies' hit and avoid when she's near them.
1197* {{Stripperiffic}}: Again, like most dancers.
1198* TheTease: In her conversation with Seliph which she teases him. Also she looks more sultry than her counterpart Lene.
1199* TheCharmer: Her unique skill, Charm, points that she has a charming persona.

1202[[folder:Charlot ''(Sharlow)'']]
1203[[quoteright:144:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/charlot.jpg]]
1204->'''Class:''' Priest
1205
1206The adopted son of General Hannibal, and Laylea's brother -- though they don't know it. Replaces Coirpre if Silvia didn't have children.
1207----
1208* BoringButPractical: His only skill is Paragon, but since he joins your army at level 1, it allows him to level up faster and catch up much quicker.
1209* ChildMage: Being Coirpre's substitute, he's also a preteen boy.
1210* DeadpanSnarker: His conversation with Patty/Daisy has him mercilessly lambasting her for her WomanChild attitude.
1211* DistressedDude: Is held hostage in order to force Hannibal to fight against Seliph.
1212* LateCharacterSyndrome: He joins as a level 1 priest at chapter 9, but he has the Paragon skill to quickly compensate this.
1213* LongLostRelative: To Laylea, and unlike Lene and Coirpre, they never find out that they're related.
1214* MagikarpPower: His stats are roughly similar to Coirpre's, if not slightly inferior, but due to the Paragon skill he levels up ''much'' faster. The fact that having him is the only way to get the Berserk Staff doesn't hurt that reputation.
1215* RagsToRoyalty: If he is paired with any girl of noble ancestry, like Larcei, Lana, Patty, Nanna, Tine or Linda.
1216* WhiteMage: Like Coirpre, he starts out as a healer.
