| 12 | The closest thing to a SeriesMascot the franchise has, Anna is a recurring character who has appeared in every installment of ''Fire Emblem'' except ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemGaiden Gaiden]]'' and its remake ''Shadows of Valentia''. Normally appearing in menus and the like, she occasionally gets story roles like appearing in villages, running tutorials, or being the owner of Secret Shops. In ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Awakening]]'', she finally graduated into being a full playable character, in addition to maintaining the game's [=SpotPass=] functionality as the keeper of the Outrealm Gate and appearing as random merchants on the overworld map. During ''Awakening'', it is revealed that there is more than one Anna, and that the playable Anna is the sister to the Outrealm Gatekeeper and the travelling merchants. |

| 20 | * AffectionateNickname: Calls Jake names like Honeycomb. |
| 21 | * AmbiguouslyHuman: There’s countless Annas, all of which are identical sisters. Nothing else about them seems particularly inhuman, however. |
| 22 | * AscendedExtra: One Anna finally made her playable debut in ''Awakening'', other Annas would go on to appear in ''Fates'' and ''Three Houses'' as DLC characters, and one is part of the central cast of ''Heroes''. |

They try to use their Snapshot tomes in order to catch pictures of the Shepherds with little clothing on, so they can make a profit off of said pictures. |
| 25 | * CueCardPause: The Anna who runs Apotheosis apparently has to use a script she wrote to introduce challengers to Apotheosis. She occasionally pauses to try to recall her lines and reread her script. |
| 26 | * MassiveNumberedSiblings: It's stated that there are a large number of Annas, [[UncannyFamilyResemblance all identical siblings]]. This is what lets her show up in multiple ''Fire Emblem'' games. |
| 27 | * MoneyFetish: ''Awakening'' reveals that some members of the Anna family are obsessed with money. [[CharacterizationMarchesOn The original Anna]], though, insisted on keeping her [[SecretShop shop secret]], despite others pointing out that doing so would cripple sales. |
| 28 | * OptionalPartyMember: Even after being PromotedToPlayable in ''Awakening'' and ''Fates'', she's an optional recruit in all games she is playable in. |
| 29 | ** In ''Awakening'', she can be recruited in Paralogue 4, "Anna the Merchant". |

| 34 | * RedheadInGreen: The merchant Annas in ''Awakening'' wear a green tunic and flat hat as part of their traveling clothes. |
| 35 | * SecretShop: Their usual proprietor. [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] in ''Shadow Dragon'' -- Jake remarks that business isn't actually looking too good for her ''because'' of the nature of the shops. They were dropped with ''Awakening'', though. |
| 36 | * {{Superboss}}: [[spoiler:As the boss of the final ''Awakening'' DLC Chapter, "Apotheosis", if the player chooses to attempt the secret battles. Not only does she have the highest stats in the game and forged weapons (a Spear to attack from range and a Brave Lance to ''brutalize'' at close range), the skills she has are frightening: [[SecretArt Aether]][[note]]chance to use a LifeDrain attack and an ArmorPiercingAttack[[/note]], Counter[[note]]reflects ''all'' damage from anyone trying to attack from close range[[/note]], Rightful God[[note]]drastically increases the chance of Aether activating[[/note]], Dragonskin[[note]]50% DamageReduction to all attacks, plus ContractualBossImmunity to the player's Counter and [[OneHitKill Lethality]][[/note]], topped off with Vantage+[[note]]always have ActionInitiative[[/note]].

| 37 | * UncannyFamilyResemblance: The Anna character is actually many identical-looking sisters. |
| 38 | * WorldsStrongestMan: [[spoiler:As the {{Superboss}} of ''Awakening'']], she is a contender for having the highest raw stat total of any unit in the franchise with 529 (including Mov). Of her two competitors, both introduced in ''Three Houses'', [[spoiler:Nemesis]] relies on temporary stat buffs from his [[spoiler:Mighty King of Legend]] skill (Totaling 706 points including Mov on [[HarderThanHard Maddening]] [[spoiler:when there are 10 enemy units alive with the 'Ten Elites' skill]]) while [[spoiler:the Immaculate One]] only surpasses her if either you don't count Anna's movement or you count their four health bars in total (Totaling 966 points if all health bars counted when fought on [[HarderThanHard Maddening]] difficulty in [[spoiler: Silver Snow Chapter 21]]). |

| 46 | Anna's love interest. Formerly a citizen of Grust in Archanea during the War of Shadows, he apparently accompanies Anna on her interuniversal travels, including doing a brief stint as one of Fargus's pirates in ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade The Blazing Blade]]''. Despite constantly ending up in combat situations, he regularly laments that he doesn't really have that much of a stomach for it all. |

| 50 | * AdaptationDyeJob: The games and supplementary materials can't decide on whether his hair is brown (''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light'', ''The Blazing Blade'') or purple (official art, ''Shadow Dragon''). |
| 51 | * AffectionateNickname: He and Anna sometimes call each other names like Honeycomb and sweetie. |
| 52 | * ChivalrousPervert: Anna doesn't seem to mind his habit of flirting with random girls too much. |
| 53 | * CapuletCounterpart: In ''Shadow Dragon'', Jake starts out as a reluctant soldier of Grust who starts a relationship with Anna, an Archanean citizen of the town his army is occupying. |
| 54 | * DependingOnTheArtist: His hair color is either brown or bluish purple depending on the game. This seems to relate to his blue haired portrait being accidentally switched with the brunette Beck in the first game. |
| 55 | * MyCountryRightOrWrong: He wasn't too keen on Grust's actions, but it took Anna to get him to leave the Grust forces outright. |
| 56 | * NotWhatISignedOnFor: Mentions as a Grustian soldier that he didn't join to kick Archanea when they're down. |

| 60 | * SecretShop: In ''Shadow Dragon'', Jake comments Anna's business isn't doing so well because few can find it, leading Marth to wonder why it isn't a "tell your friends shop". A similar conversation happens in ''New Mystery'' with the Avatar. |
| 61 | * SiegeEngines: Rides a ballista in ''Shadow Dragon''. By the time of ''New Mystery'', he's stopped using it due to the fuel source for the engines going extinct. |
| 62 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: He -- along with Beck, Darros, Wrys, Roger, and to a lesser extent Gotoh -- was meant to return as playable characters in ''Monshou no Nazo'', but was scrapped during development. |

| 71 | |
| 72 | The Divine Dragon [[AmbiguousGender King]] and protector of humanity, although an aloof and distant one. Over the course of the histories of Archanea and Jugdral, she did battle with degenerated dragons, in particular the Earth Dragon tribe. Naga's appointed guardian of the Table, Medeus is an antagonist in the Archanea games, while Loptous, and the Fell Dragon Grima, are both said to be Naga's archrival. |
| 73 | |
| 74 | While Naga eventually passed away/ascended to a higher plane of existence, she left a lasting legacy on the world. Her bloodline lives on through her daughter Tiki, her reincarnation Nagi, and the royal family of Grannvale in Jugdral who received it through her pact with Saint Heim. The people of Archanea and Jugdral revere her as a legendary god, though both are largely unaware that she was in fact a female dragon. Many a hero has used holy weapons associated with her to vanquish evil -- the Falchion and Binding Shield wielded by Marth and eventually the Ylissean royal family, and the Naga tome of Grannvale's royalty. |
| 75 | |
| 76 | There may be more then one Naga as it is the title held by any ruler of the Divine Dragons. |
| 77 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Momoko Ohara (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening''), Creator/SatomiSato (Japanese, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes''), Creator/MelaLee (English) |
| 78 | ---- |
| 79 | * AdaptationalModesty: Zigzagged. Her first actual appearance in ''Awakening'' shows her from the side and veiled in blue light that makes it unclear if she is wearing an upper body garment with a scale pattern, or an extremely revealing scaled vest with her torso on display. By comparison, her artwork in ''Fire Emblem Heroes'' has no such filter - her cleavage and stomach are fully visible from the front. |
| 80 | * AloofBigSister: To Forseti, and to a degree to the whole of Jugdral. In spite of her sincere desire to protect it, she never was too fond of interacting ''directly'' with humanity, unless it was truly needed. |
| 81 | * AmbiguousGender: In-universe -- with the exception of her appearance before the Twelve Crusaders at the Miracle of Darna, she is universally assumed to be male by her religious followers. Forseti the wind Dragon, who knew Naga, uses gender neutral pronouns when describing the Divine Dragon's leader.[[note]]some [[FanTranslation Fan Translations]] turn the neutral pronouns used to refer to Naga into distinctly male or female pronouns.[[/note]] Something to note is the Japanese word for king is gender-neutral. This is evident in the Japanese version of ''Awakening'', the appointed ruler of Ylisse is called "Holy King" regardless of their gender. Recently Naga has been portrayed as definitively female. In ''Awakening'' she appears female and is only described as such, and is also referred to as female in the Duma's Ordeals dungeon from ''Shadows of Valentia'', at least in the English version. This is the same Naga of the Archanea series, who was thought to be a male god by humans. Although the ''Awakening'' art book mentions that it's unknown if ''Awakening'' Naga is the same Naga from the Archanea Series, the ambiguously canon ''Heroes'' says that she is indeed the same Naga and that the reason she was depicted as a male by humans was because she appeared to mankind in different forms, often as a great warrior or even a child. [[spoiler:''The Future Past'' DLC chapters imply that Naga doesn't always have to be the same person, as her daughter Tiki (who died earlier) becomes the new Naga in that timeline. Due to Naga being a title, it's wholly ambiguous again.]] |
| 82 | * AmbiguousGenderIdentity: At least in the games by Shouzou Kaga, Naga is always referred to with gender neutral pronouns when dragons talk about them. It is only humans that gender Naga and refer to the character with male terms like "kare". |
| 83 | * AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Implied to be how she avoided draconic degeneration, and also why her interactions with humans seem to involve her having a supernatural rather than physical presence. Material surrounding ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' notes that the Book of Naga contains Naga's power and will, much like how the Loptr/Loptous Tome contains Loptr's; the Loptr in the tome is assumed to be the same as the Loptr who made it, so it's implied that Naga transcended mortal existence in this manner. |
| 84 | * CelestialBody: In ''Heroes'', Naga's dragon form is apparently made of stars or pure cosmic energy, in contrast to any other manakete in the franchise. This is likely due to how she abandoned her physical form in order to avoid degeneration. |
| 85 | * ContinuityNod: Naga's appearance as both an male and female throughout her various appearances in human history was hinted since the very first game by Xane, an Divine Dragon himself, since he claimed that his ability to turn into different person was an common ability. |
| 86 | * CrystalDragonJesus: This is played up more in the English localizations, as in the Japanese scripts, its usually more clear that Naga is just one of the [[FantasyPantheon many deities]] that the people of Archanea and Jugdral worship. |
| 87 | * DecompositeCharacter: The English book, ''Legacy of Archanea'', changes the text so instead of Naga appearing as a giant warrior, Naga instead sends a giant warrior to do their bidding. |
| 88 | * DubInducedPlotlineChange: The ''Legacy of Archanea'' drastically altered Naga's background in ''Mystery of the Emblem'' most notably making [[DecompositeCharacter Naga's giant form a separate character that works for Naga]], despite the english localization of ''Heroes'' going with the original context of the giant being a form of Naga. |
| 89 | * DragonsAreDivine: In ''Awakening'', both Naga and Grima were worshiped by Ylisse and Plegia, respectively, though Naga insists that neither are truly gods because they lack the PowerOfCreation. Tiki, the daughter of Naga herself, is worshiped in Valm as the Voice of Naga due to their connection. |
| 90 | * EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Given how important Naga is in games like ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' and ''Awakening'', it might be surprising that Naga is barely mentioned in ''Shadow Dragon''. Even in ''Mystery of the Emblem'', Gotoh makes it clear that Naga is gone and his orders are posthumous. |
| 91 | * AFormYouAreComfortableWith: One of her voiced clips in ''Heroes'' states that she has taken many forms in front of humans, from a "great hero" to a "harmless child". |
| 92 | * AGodIAmNot: In her own words: |
| 93 | -->'''Naga:''' But know this: I am no god.\ |
| 94 | '''Lucina:''' But milady, you are the divine dragon!\ |
| 95 | '''Naga:''' So do sons of man name me. But I am no creator. I possess not the powers of making or unmaking. [[spoiler:And neither does Grima. Neither of us bears the power to destroy the other utterly]]." |
| 96 | * FanservicePack: She isn't even physically shown in ''Shadow Dragon''. In ''Awakening'', she is partially visible through a blue light and takes the appearance of an etherial woman with long hair. In ''Heroes'', she is not only regal but also more curvaceous and visibly exposed compared to her ''Awakening'' artwork. |
| 97 | * GetARoom: In the S-Support of Nah and Morgan in ''Awakening''. After their confession of love, the two share this [[Funny/FireEmblemAwakening hilarious exchange]]: |
| 98 | -->'''Morgan:''' So, uh, did Naga have anything to say about this?\ |
| 99 | '''Nah:''' Hold on, I'll ask.\ |
| 100 | '''Nah:''' ......\ |
| 101 | '''Nah:''' ...She said to get a room. |
| 102 | * GoodIsNotNice: Naga ordered Gotoh to kill Tiki if worst to came to worst and the Binding Shield (which kept Tiki sane) could not be recovered in time. |
| 103 | * GreaterScopeParagon: Naga's benevolence has a great influence that spans the backstories of several ''Fire Emblem'' games: |
| 104 | ** In the backstory of ''VideoGame/FireEmblemMysteryOfTheEmblem'', Naga was the leader of the Divine Dragons who worked hard in ensuring humanity's future in place of dragonkind, but is dead in the present, and ironically some decisions Naga made in the past ended up accidentally hurting humanity. One of her fangs was used to forge the Falchion, the weapon used by Anri to defeat Medeus, and later used by his indirect descendants Marth, Chrom, and Lucina. Due to this, her right hand man, Gotoh takes up the role of BigGood, being the one to provide Marth with the means to defeat his [[APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil former ward]], Gharnef, one of the [[BigBadDuumvirate two main villains]]. |
| 105 | ** In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGaiden'''s remake, ''Shadows of Valentia'', it's revealed that Naga defeated Duma in battle, but chose not to kill him and instead exiled him to Valentia, Mila following after him. Naga also had the Valentian Falchion crafted from another of her fangs in case both siblings fell to dragon degeneration, which King Rudolf uses to seal away Mila, and Alm to slay Duma, but has no part in the plot otherwise, except subtly in the postgame when [[spoiler:the portal leading out of the Thabes Labyrinth takes the form of the Brand of Naga.]] |
| 106 | ** In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar'' and ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776'', Naga was among the group of Divine Dragons that blood-bonded with the Twelve Crusaders in order to give them the power to take down the evil Loptrian Empire. They also granted each Crusader a divine weapon to assist them on their quest. Among those weapons were the Tyrfing later wielded by Sigurd and his son Seliph, and Naga's divine weapon, the Book of Naga tome, which are the only things capable of countering or resisting the effects of Loptous' own eponymous tome. By the time of ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', however, all involved save for the Divine Dragon Forseti are either long dead or have left Jugdral, Naga in particular citing the desire to allow the humans a chance to decide their own destiny, and the Crusader's descendants are squabbling over who will rule the continent. Naga, along with Forseti, do still end up playing a part, as they possessed the wielders of their respective tomes to fight Loptous. |
| 107 | ** In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'', Naga defeated Grima in ancient days and has blessed heroic mortals with her power to accomplish great deeds. Her power also marks the royal line of Ylisse, where she is worshiped as a god, which manifests as the Brand of the Exalt. However, she doesn't get directly involved in ''Awakening'''s story, save for the very end of the main game where she grants Chrom's Falchion its full power during the titular Awakening ceremony, and in the Future Past DLC where she serves as more of a BigGood. |
| 108 | * HunterOfHerOwnKind: In ''Heroes'', Naga's signature weapon is ''Divine Breath'', a BreathWeapon that deals effective damage against dragon foes and grants bonus stats to her based on the number of allies within 2 spaces that have weapons or buffs which inflict effective damage against dragons, which synergizes well with her ''Divine Fang'' passive. |
| 109 | * LegacyCharacter: It's {{implied|Trope}} that "Naga" is a title that has been used by several individuals. ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light'' refers to Naga as male while all later appearances depict a female, the Naga shown in ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' has a vastly different appearance from the one shown in ''Awakening'', and Tiki becomes the new Naga in The Future Past DLC of ''Awakening''. |
| 110 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "Legend of the Divine Dragon God", in the Archanea games (and ''The Blazing Blade''); the melody is shared with her daughter Tiki, with her version using harps and woodwinds. |
| 111 | * LightIsGood: The tome with her essence is Holy, of course. |
| 112 | %%* MissingMom: To Tiki. |
| 113 | * NavelDeepNeckline: Her attire in ''Awakening'' bares most of her chest down to her midriff. |
| 114 | * OurAngelsAreDifferent: Her design in ''Awakening'' is based on the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennin Tennin]], specifically a Tennyo, a spirtual being from Japanese Buddihism version of heaven. Considering that she is the BigGood of many ''Fire Emblem'' games and that she has AscendedToAHigherPlaneOfExistence, this is rather fitting. |
| 115 | * OurDragonsAreDifferent: As a Divine Dragon tribe Manakete, she's able to take on the form of a golden-colored dragon (or in ''Heroes'', a celestial-looking dragon) with softer features, in contrast to the more reptilian forms of the other dragon tribes. |
| 116 | * PointyEars: Her depiction in ''Awakening'' has her sport a pair, an indication that she isn't human. |
| 117 | * PromotedToPlayable: She makes her playable debut in ''Heroes''. |
| 118 | * SamusIsAGirl: Despite the AmbiguousGender created InUniverse, ''Awakening'' is the first game we see Naga's appearance outside of murals, and it turns out that she appears as a woman. While it's very easy to miss, Naga is referred with female pronouns in the Duma's Ordeals dungeon from ''Shadows of Valentia'', at least in the English version. If ''Heroes'' is considered canon, it confirms that the ''Awakening'' Naga and the one from the Archanea Series are the same Naga and that the reason for AmbiguousGender in-universe was because she appeared to humans in many different forms, often as a great warrior or a child. |
| 119 | * SecretArt: In ''Heroes'', Naga possesses the ''[[StatusBuff Divine Fang]]'' skill, which grants "effective against dragons" to adjacent allies for 1 turn. |
| 120 | * ShesAManInJapan: An odd example, the english book, ''Legacy of Archanea'', says Naga sent a male giant to do their bidding, but the Japanese text and all versions of Heroes, state that instead, Naga themself took the form of a male giant. |
| 121 | * ShipperOnDeck: In ''Awakening'', it's implied that Naga is trying to hook up Nah and male Morgan during the latter two's Support chain. |
| 122 | * {{Stripperiffic}}: Her ''Awakening'' design is extremely revealing. ''Heroes'' shows that the centre of her upper body is left uncovered all the way down to her midsection. |
| 123 | * SuperhumanTransfusion: Gave some of her blood to St. Heim of Jugdral and later the First Exalt of Ylisse, granting them greater strength and the ability to wield the Naga tome and a reforged Falchion respectively. Their respective descendants bear the [[BirthmarkOfDestiny Mark of Naga]], which mark them as royalty of their respective nations. |
| 124 | * VoluntaryShapeshifter: While Naga did not come up with the idea of assuming human form, she was a firm supporter of it. |

| 137 | Naga's daughter, as well as the princess and the sole survivor of the Divine Dragon tribe who is still capable of taking dragon form. As one of her last acts, Naga placed her in an unending sleep to prevent her from degenerating into madness like all the other dragons, but she was eventually unsealed by Bantu. The two traveled the world for a time until she was captured and brainwashed by Gharnef. Upon being freed from the spell by Bantu, Tiki joined the Altean army and took a liking to Marth. After the war, she was put back to sleep by Gotoh, but he allowed her to reawaken for good upon confirming that Marth would be able to restore the Binding Shield, which would prevent her from degenerating. |

| 144 | * ActionMom: Can become one to Morgan if she marries Male Robin in ''Awakening''. |
| 145 | * AFormYouAreComfortableWith: The summer version in ''Heroes'' offered this to the Summoner should she is sent to deliver greetings to other castle, in case the Summoner is [[FullyClothedNudity uncomfortable with her attire]]. |
| 146 | -->'''Summer Tiki:''' I bring greetings from [Friend]. My attire? If you don't consider it appropriate for the circumstances, I could always turn into a dragon. |
| 147 | * AgeInappropriateDress: A ''Fire Emblem Cipher'' card shows that when Tiki first awoke from her slumber, [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/8/8f/Mayo_Tiki.png/revision/latest?cb=20190407003658 she was still in her childhood clothes]]. Because her body had matured significantly, the outfit barely covered her chest and legs, forcing Say'ri to quickly bring the outfit she wears in ''Awakening''. An exchange with Lucina in the Harvest Scramble DLC has Lucina give Tiki a replica of her childhood clothes to wear, but this time Tiki is awake enough to be extremely embarrassed by how poorly they fit her body. The problem is so obvious that Lucina immediately starts profusely apologizing the moment she sees Tiki, implying her her curves are bulging out of it quite noticeably. ''Fire Emblem Heroes'' dresses Tiki in this same outfit for her Brave Hero variant, though in this case it's been tailored to fit her a bit better. It still barely covers her legs and chest, but the fabric itself is shown to be well-fitted and not stretched this time, leaving Tiki much more comfortable with the outfit. |
| 148 | * BadassAdorable: Her child form's ''Heroes'' variants give her lots of little moments that make her this, like turning into a dragon and trying to drink the ocean up in her swimsuit variant. |

In Tiki's case, she was given Slick Fighter 3 (On the Enemy Phase, if she starts combat at 25% HP or higher, she makes a guaranteed follow-up attack and neutralizes any field debuffs she's been inflicted with during combat) as her new B Slot skill, her With Everyone! skill was upgraded to With Everyone! II (At the start of her turn, if she's within two spaces of an ally, she and any allies within two spaces of her are granted a +6 Def/Res StatusBuff for one turn, and she herself is also granted a [[TakingTheBullet Far Save effect]] that adds +4 to all her stats during combat should Savior trigger), and her Divine Mist can be refined to give her +4 to all her stats during combat if she starts combat at 25% HP or higher, and also inflicts an Atk debuff on her foe during combat that scales with her visible Def/Res buffs (including the ones granted by her With Everyone! II). |
| 150 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: She's very calm and composed, befitting her position the oracle of Naga. But in ''Awakening'' after finding out that Anna's been exploiting her for her GetRichQuickScheme, she threatens to ''eat'' Anna if she does not return the money she made off her. |
| 151 | -->'''Tiki:''' You are free, of course, to decline. In which case you may pursue a new career opportunity in food services. |
| 152 | * BlowingARaspberry: Oddly enough, she does this in ''Awakening'', in her B support with Say'ri. |
| 153 | * BoobsAndButtPose: Her Damaged portrait in ''Fire Emblem Heroes'', specifically in her bikini and sarong outfit as part of the "Ylissean Summer" Expansion. Even further hammered home when she appears in a bikini as part of ''Heroes''' "Ylissean Summer" Banner - without the dress to cover them up, it's clear she's buxom enough to give Camilla a run for her money. As icing on the cake, Female Robin, who is also revealed to be fairly well-endowed in the same Banner, is decisively smaller in comparison to Tiki when looking at both in swimwear side-by-side. |
| 154 | * BrainwashedAndCrazy: Hypnotized by Gharnef in ''Shadow Dragon'' via convincing her Bantu was in trouble, and only Gharnef could protect her. She was used to guard the Fane of Ronan and by extension the Lightsphere, Starsphere, and Geosphere. Fittingly, it was Bantu that broke her out of this trance. |
| 155 | * CombatStilettos: Her main ''Awakening'' outfit gives her red thigh-high boots with high heels. |
| 156 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Green hair and eyes. |
| 157 | * CuteMonsterGirl: In the Archanea games, she was the youngest playable character, at least appearance-wise. |
| 158 | * DeepSleep: Twice, no less. The first was Naga's doing before she died, placing her in an unending sleep to prevent her from degenerating into madness like all the other dragons; this was interrupted by Bantu who subsequently adopted her. Then, after the War of Shadows, she was put back to sleep by Gotoh, but he allowed her to reawaken for good upon confirming that Marth would be able to restore the Binding Shield, which would prevent her from degenerating. And it happened again by the time of ''Awakening'', this time of her own volition, when the Shield was disassembled ''yet again''. Her downtime quotes and supports sometimes make fun of it, often portraying her as very sleepy and lazy. |
| 159 | * DoNotTauntCthulhu: Two specific examples from ''Awakening'': |
| 160 | ** First is when Anna tries to exploit her status as Naga's Voice for a GetRichQuickScheme. When Tiki finds out, she threatens to, shall we say, [[DeadlyEuphemism make Anna pursue a new career in]] [[EatenAlive food services]], unless Anna gave her all the money she took from the people she exploited. |
| 161 | ** Second is when the Female Robin realizes that Tiki can hear and reply to her questions in her sleep, and starts prodding with more and more personal questions (it's unclear how lucid Tiki is at the time). At the end of it, Tiki simply tells Robin to mind her own business or else, which sends her running away in fear. |
| 162 | * DragonsAreDivine: In ''Awakening'', Tiki is worshiped by Valm as the Voice of Naga due to being a member of the Divine Dragon tribe and Naga's daughter. |
| 163 | * HappilyAdopted: Tiki ''loves'' Ban-Ban with all her heart who adopted Tiki as his daughter and raised her like a normal girl. At the end of the War of Heroes, Marth basically adopted her as well. |
| 164 | * HappilyMarried: If paired with Male Robin in ''Awakening''. Which leads to BattleCouple and MayflyDecemberRomance. |
| 165 | --> "I know that to love another, I must watch the world move past him. But such short years make an eternity worth living." |
| 166 | * HiddenBuxom: Specifically as an adult. While her cleavage in ''Awakening'' makes it clear she's well-endowed, her bikini in ''Heroes''' Ylissean Summer Banner reveals that she's actually buxom enough to compete with the likes of Camilla - her figure being more slender by her dress is the only reason this wasn't previously apparent. Thus, in a manner of speaking, she's the series' original "Camilla" as far as figure is concerned - it just took her a while to show it. |
| 167 | * HunterOfHerOwnKind: Her Divinestone deals effective damage against other manaketes or transformed dragons. In ''Awakening'', she gains the Wyrmsbane, which deals effective damage against wyvern riders and other manaketes, which is only possible through Spot and [=StreetPass=]. |
| 168 | ** In ''Heroes'', both her young and adult incarnations have the ''Breath of Fog'', a BreathWeapon that deals effective damage against dragon foes and provides a substantial HealingFactor at the start of odd-numbered turns, making it a draconic version of the Falchion. |
| 169 | * AnIcePerson: Book 1 of ''Mystery of the Emblem'' strangely gives Tiki Ice Breath instead of the standard Divine Breath, possibly to not give her effective damage against Medeus just like the original ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light''. Of course, she could do this in Book 2 should she uses an Ice Dragonstone. |
| 170 | * ImmortalImmaturity: |
| 171 | ** In the Archanea games she looks and acts very much like a child. Justified because she was only awake and active for ten years and otherwise has been trapped in hibernation effectively. |
| 172 | ** While she normally acts wise and aloof in ''Awakening'', her B rank support conversation with Say'ri reveals she's not as grown up as she appears. Of course, part of it ''was'' a ploy to get Say'ri to lighten up a little. |
| 173 | --> '''Tiki:''' [[BlowingARaspberry Thbbbbt!]]\ |
| 174 | '''Say'ri:''' My lady, I have no words. You are acting as a child! |
| 175 | * IntergenerationalFriendship: Technically all her Supports in ''Awakening'' count as this due to her having thousands of years on the rest of the cast, but special mention goes to her interactions with Lucina and Nah, who are the only member of the Second Generation units she can Support with unless she's Morgan's mother. |
| 176 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "The Little Divine Dragon", which shares its melody with that of Naga, using much higher-pitched and eerie instrumentation. |
| 177 | * LazyDragon: In ''Awakening'', Tiki is depicted as a {{Sleepyhead}} as sort of a joke about just how much time she's spent sleeping by that point; millennia-long naps are no stranger to her, although she's always had good reason to sleep for so long. |
| 178 | * LikeBrotherAndSister: Although she only recently met Marth, she quickly grows an attachment to him, calling him Big Brother in the Japanese version. This expanded on in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriors'', where she mentions to Caeda how she and Marth feel like her older siblings. |
| 179 | * LightningBruiser: Give her a couple of levels and watch her wipe out an entire area. |
| 180 | * LightIsGood: Like her mom, [[LightEmUp her breath is holy]]. |
| 181 | * LoveConfession: |
| 182 | -->''I know that to love another, I must watch the world move past him. But such short years make an eternity worth living.'' |
| 183 | * MagikarpPower: Well, sort of. She's already good when you get her because of the Divinestone, but she has very low HP at that point in the game (HP being the only stat not touched by the Divinestone's bonuses), and even with the Divinestone's bonus to her Speed, she won't be able to double most enemies. Once you level her up a bit, her HP won't be much of a problem and she can double most of her foes with ease. |
| 184 | * MentorArchetype: In her Supports with Nah in ''Awakening'',1 she teaches her about what it means to be a manakete. |
| 185 | * MercyKill: In the "Infinite Regalia" DLC chapter of ''Awakening'', her battle quote implies that [[spoiler:the Deadlord she's facing is either Marth or one of the parents that died in the BadFuture, leading to this trope]]. |
| 186 | * MessianicArchetype: [[spoiler:Plays this in "The Future Past" DLC of ''Awakening''. She stands as an ally of humanity and is the only child of the god the continent worships. For "Future Past" specifically, her role in being killed, coming back to life, and using her death to save humanity from the ultimate evil.]] |
| 187 | * TheNicknamer: In her child form, she refers to Marth as "Mar-Mar" and Bantu as "Ban-Ban". |
| 188 | * NighInvulnerable: In ''Dark Dragon'', she can potentially have the second highest defense in the ''entire series'', below Bantu. |
| 189 | * OurDragonsAreDifferent: Like Naga, she's able to transform into a golden-colored dragon which is sometimes depicted with feathers. In ''Awakening'', her dragon form is more or less a PaletteSwap of Nowi, slightly glowing brighter than the latter. |
| 190 | * OverratedAndUnderleveled: In ''Awakening'', she's no stronger than Nowi and slightly weaker than Nah, despite being the daughter of a supposed goddess, a potential world ender, and an adult when the other two are children. She isn't exactly weak, but does ''not'' live up to her reputation. However, this might be justified as she's been asleep for a very long time, and several of her interactions in ''Awakening'' hint that she has trouble getting accustomed again to the fast-paced world of humans. |
| 191 | * ParentalSubstitute: Bantu acted as Tiki's father figure when she was a "child." |
| 192 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: Naga and Gotoh feared that she would become this. The restoration of the Binding Shield averts this possibility for good. |
| 193 | * PlotArmor: In ''Shadow Dragon''. If the requirements to reach Chapter 24x are completed (Tiki defeated and the Falchion lost), Gotoh reveals that she is NotQuiteDead and has merely returned to her slumber. (However, Aum can still affect her, unlike the Decoy.) |
| 194 | * PointyEars: A clear indicator that she isn't human. |
| 195 | * PretenderDiss: In ''Awakening'', this is her initial reaction to Lucina using Marth's name as an alias, since she's over 3000 years old and knew the real Marth personally. Of course, it doesn't take long for her to decide that [[YouRemindMeOfX maybe the appellation is fitting after all.]] |
| 196 | * PreMortemOneLiner: |
| 197 | -->"Watch this!" (adult, ''Awakening'') |
| 198 | -->"Goodbye..." (adult, ''Awakening'') |
| 199 | -->"Not a step closer!" (adult) |
| 200 | -->"This might get unpleasant." (adult) |
| 201 | -->"Sleep well." (adult, ''Heroes'') |
| 202 | -->"Breath of the Divine Dragon." (adult, ''Heroes'') |
| 203 | -->"Stay away!" (young, ''Heroes'') |
| 204 | -->"No, no, NO!" (young, ''Heroes'') |
| 205 | -->"Oh no you WON'T!" (young, ''Heroes'') |
| 206 | -->"I can be scary, too!" (young, ''Heroes'') |
| 207 | * PrettyPrincessPowerhouse: Due to being Naga's daughter, Tiki is actually a princess of the Divine Dragon tribe, and using her Dragonstones, she can temporarily assume her dragon form and fight back against any enemy that opposes her. |
| 208 | * ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: In ''Awakening'', she casually mentions that she's 3000 years old. This actually helps establish just how long after ''Mystery of the Emblem'' the game is set. There's something of a RunningGag with Tiki making reference to just how ''ancient'' she is by now, especially in her shopping quotes. |
| 209 | * SheIsAllGrownUp: A few thousand years pass between ''Shadow Dragon'' and ''Awakening'', during which time Tiki matured very nicely. |
| 210 | * {{Sleepyhead}}: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Tiki is depicted as sleepy, but she doesn't doze off everywhere. |
| 211 | * TakingTheBullet: During the second chapter of ''Awakening''[='=]s Future of Despair DLC, [[spoiler:she sacrifices herself on an attack targeted at Lucina. While she dies, she's later revealed to have taken on the role of Naga, effectively foiling Grima's plan.]] |
| 212 | * TalkingInYourSleep: Tiki spends most of her support conversations with Female Robin asleep, while occasionally speaking her dreams between snores. |
| 213 | * ThirdOptionLoveInterest: Given that she only joins your party if you play and complete Paralogue 17 without her dying. |
| 214 | * TokenMiniMoe: In the original Archanea games. Tiki (particularly her younger self) is bound to appear in spin-off titles as the cute mascot of the series, only right behind Marth in terms of the "most marketed Archanea character". She even starts a trend of young-looking girls who are actually ReallySevenHundredYearsOld dragons who join the player's party. |
| 215 | * TooAwesomeToUse: She's considered one of the best characters in all four Archanea games... and she comes mid-late into both games and has very limited usability given the small, finite number of Dragonstones available. This case is slightly averted in ''Dark Dragon'' thanks to the Divine Dragonstone being an infinite-use weapon. |
| 216 | ** In ''Shadow Dragon'', at least, give her the Starsphere. It allows all of the holder's weapons to be used infinitely -- Dragonstones included. You'll have to give up the sphere if you want Gotoh to forge Starlight, but until then, have a blast letting Tiki rip through everything! Also, she can use Bantu's Firestones if you want to save up the Divinestone. |
| 217 | ** There's also the secret shop in ''New Mystery of the Emblem'' where you are able to recruit Tiki. You can use the Warp staff that is also obtained in that chapter to teleport someone to the center of the north eastern lake, an area that cannot be reached otherwise, and they'll find the secret shop holds one of each non-unique dragonstone in the game, meaning that Tiki, as well as the other Manaketes, have more weaponry and use in the process. This, however, cannot be done in [[HarderThanHard Lunatic difficulty]], as the Warp staff is not available to use. |
| 218 | ** In both ''Shadow Dragon'' and ''New Mystery of The Emblem'', you can use the even more limited Hammerne on the Divinestone to make sure that it doesn't run out of uses. |
| 219 | ** Averted properly in ''Awakening'' -- though they're fairly expensive, Dragonstones and even Dragonstone+'s can simply be bought by the time she's recruitable. |
| 220 | * TranquilFury: Her anger at Anna's GetRichQuickScheme in ''Awakening'', calmly threatening to eat Anna if she doesn't return all the gold she made. |
| 221 | * VaporWear: Her red minidress in ''Awakening'' makes it clear that Tiki does not wear underwear, possibly due to the fact that she is a dragon in human form. |
| 222 | * {{Weredragon}}: With the aid of a Divinestone, she can take on her Divine Dragon form, allowing her to fight back against the Manaketes of Dolhr, and most human enemies. |
| 223 | * WingedHumanoid: Tiki is depicted with angel wings in several depictions such as ''Mystery of the Emblem''. |
| 224 | * WhoWantsToLiveForever: Her supports with Female Robin indicate this, [[spoiler:as she has nightmares about Marth leaving her]]. Her supports with Nah particularly revolve around this trope, as does her love confession scene with Male Robin. Both, however, also underscore her firm resolve to not let it beat her down. |
| 225 | * WrongNameOutburst: As an adult, she accidentally uses "Mar-Mar" to refer to Robin, leading to some confusion [[spoiler:and for Male Robin, a hint of her affections]]. |
| 226 | * YouRemindMeOfX: Hero-type towards both Robin and [[spoiler:Lucina]] in ''Awakening'', stating that they share his ability to [[MagneticHero build alliances and bonds among their fellow soldiers]]. [[spoiler:Also carries shades of the romantic type if she falls for Male Robin.]] |

| 229 | [[folder:The Deadlords]] |
| 230 | !!The Deadlords ''(Dark Warlords, [[DubNameChange Seigneurs des Ombres, Todesfürsten, Resurgidos]])'' |
| 231 | |
| 232 | The Deadlords are a collection of 12 warriors introduced in ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar Genealogy of the Holy War]]'', named Mus, Bovis, Tigris, Lepus, Draco, Anguilla, Equus, Ovis, Simia, Gallus, Canis, and Porcus. They once served the Loptrian Empire, and later served the Empire's remnants, the Loptr Church. Very little info is given about them in ''Genealogy'' (they show up for the FinalBoss fight with no explanation), though ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776 Thracia 776]]'' explains that they're basically zombies created by the Loptr Church killing people and corrupting/reanimating their corpses. |
| 233 | |
| 234 | In ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Awakening]]'', the Deadlords are reincarnated by Validar and Aversa of the Grimleal, and some of them are equipped with the Holy Weapons of the Twelve Crusaders. They are deployed under Aversa's command in Chapter 22 to help defeat Chrom, but again fail and are slain. They appear one last time in the "Infinite Regalia" DLC, now 36 in number, where they claim to have fallen in a battle with the fate of the world at stake. It is heavily implied that these Deadlords are in fact the parents from ''Awakening'''s BadFuture, with a ''Fire Emblem Cipher'' card stopping exactly short of confirming this. |
| 235 | |
| 236 | ->'''Classes:''' \ |
| 237 | '''Mus:''' Baron (''Genealogy of the Holy War'' and ''Thracia 776''), General (''Awakening'')\ |

| 239 | '''Tigris:''' Warrior\ |
| 240 | '''Lepus:''' High Priest (''Genealogy of the Holy War''), War Cleric (''Awakening'')\ |

| 248 | '''Porcus:''' Thief Fighter (''Genealogy of the Holy War'' and ''Thracia 776''), Assassin (''Awakening'') |
| 249 | ---- |
| 250 | * BossBonanza: Gameplay-wise, their role is to act as this--the ''fewest'' that have ever appeared in a level with at least one of them is six, in ''Thracia 776'', whereas in their other appearances, there are 12 of them (and in the ''Awakening'' DLC in which they appear, ''36''). [[spoiler:''Thracia 776'' can mix this with BossRush as well, depending on what units you didn't recruit.]] |
| 251 | * DarkIsEvil: Aside from the name, Gallus always uses Dark Magic, while Lepus uses Staves, and Canis uses either Light Magic or Staves. |
| 252 | * DubNameChange: ''Awakening'', which marks their first international appearance, has different names for the Deadlords in different languages: Seigneurs des Ombres (Lords of Shadow) in French, Todesfürsten (Princes of Death) in German, and Resurgidos (Arisen) in Spanish. |
| 253 | * FireIceLightning: Anguilla, Equus in ''Genealogy'', and Ovis, as well as Canis in ''Awakening'', use an Anima Tome each. |
| 254 | * ForWantOfANail: |
| 255 | ** Their ''Thracia 776'' appearance. Five of the six Deadlords you face are created using the bodies of five people you should recruit during the course of the game and then either allow to die/be petrified or end up not recruiting them: Mus is Raydrik (the only fixed Deadlord, as he is a main villain in the game and thus is not recruitable), Bovis is Mareeta's father Galzus, Porcus is Lifis, Tigris is Tanya's father Dagdar, Canis is Sara, and Draco is none other than... [[spoiler:Eyvel/Brigid]]. |
| 256 | *** {{Foreshadowing}}: Mus, Bovis, Porcus, Tigris, and Canis all share classes with the units used to create them. Draco...[[spoiler:shares a class with ''Brigid'', not Eyvel.]] |
| 257 | ** ''Awakening'''s Infinite Regalia DLC implies that the Deadlords of ''Awakening'' were created from the parents that died in the BadFuture. The "Risen King Chrom" card in ''Fire Emblem Cipher'' helps to lean on this interpretation real, real hard. |
| 258 | * GenderBender: Draco is male in ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', but female in ''Thracia 776'' [[spoiler:even if you keep Eyvel alive to that point]]. Reasonably justified in that it's entirely possible that a different person was used to create Draco each time. |
| 259 | %%* MagicKnight: Anguilla's class is this, and in [=FE4=] this comes with the Thoron spell and [[spoiler:a minor Tordo blood]]. |
| 260 | * NoCureForEvil: Averted in ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' and in ''Awakening'', where Lepus possesses a healing staff to use on the others. Naturally, the players will want to ShootTheMedicFirst. |
| 261 | * NoIndoorVoice: In ''Awakening'', the Deadlords speak in all caps. |
| 262 | * OurZombiesAreDifferent: As shown through ''Thracia 776'' and ''Awakening'', the Deadlords are made from the bodies of deceased warriors. They are obedient to those they serve, like the Loptr Church or the Grimleal, but the Deadlords in ''Infinite Regalia'' appear to have self-independence but are forced to defend the treasures while testing their robbers. |
| 263 | * SNKBoss: Canis of the Deadlords is the only enemy with Light Magic in ''Genealogy of the Holy War''[[note]][[ForcedIntoEvil ignoring one very special lady]][[/note]], and [[LifeDrain Nosferatu]]/Resire at that; this will be your only indication that the spell even exists, if you [[PromptlessBranchingPoint liberated Isaach before Sophara]] back in Chapter 6. She's even more dangerous in ''Thracia 776'', where she possesses Wrath, Adept/Continue, Miracle/Prayer, and a Berserk staff, the latter of which is boosted to nigh-unresistable effectiveness by the special terrain she stands on. Neutralizing Canis before she causes problems basically requires long-ranged magic; either a critical hit with Blizzard to cause Sleep (since critical hits in this game affect weapon power instead of final damage), or a lengthy series of actions to get a Magic-boosted staff-user on Magic-boosting terrain so they can use the Sleep staff. |
| 264 | * SpamAttack: ''Every Deadlord'' has some kind of skill to help them make more attacks in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar''. Of particular note are Draco and Ovis, who have Pursuit ([[YouHaveResearchedBreathing makes it possible to double attack via speed check in the first place]]), Adept (Attack Speed+20% chance to do an extra attack) and Accost (Difference in Attack Speed+Hp/2% chance to extend combat as if another Fight command was issued) as well as high speed stats and weapons with very low weight. Chances are, if you don't kill them first, they'll just attack your unit until your unit dies. |
| 265 | * ThemeNaming: In the Japanese version, they are named after the numbers 1 to 12 in the German language. In the west, they are given the Latin names of the animals from the Chinese Zodiac. |

| 267 | |
| 268 | [[folder:Shanty Pete]] |
| 269 | !!Shanty Pete |
| 270 | |
| 271 | An obscure character of folklore who is mentioned briefly in several games, primarily the ones taking place in Archanea and Tellius, and appears to be something of a patron saint of pirates. He also apparently likes to dance on barrels of rum, according to Robin in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening''. |
| 272 | ---- |
| 273 | * DressedToPlunder: As a "patron saint" of pirates, he has a pegleg, which Gomer swore on, and a hook hand according to one of the stories Ricken read in his support with Olivia. |
| 274 | * TheGhost: Shanty Pete is only mentioned off-hand throughout the series, never appearing in person. Virtually all we know about him is from the various attributes of his that pirates use as expletives and oaths, and also bits and pieces told about him in ''Awakening''. |
| 275 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: A pirate that, according to Anna, once founded an orphanage. |
| 276 | * PirateParrot: Going by Barth's proclamation in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemEchoesShadowsOfValentia'', Shanty Pete apparently had a parrot. Curiously, it apparently gained enough of its own reputation to be considered "mighty." |
| 277 | * SeaDogBeard: Nedata swears by the briny beard of Shanty Pete. |

| 281 | !!Toys/{{amiibo}} Icons (Marth, Ike, Lucina, Robin[[note]]male only[[/note]], Roy, Corrin[[note]]male and female[[/note]]) |
| 282 | |
| 283 | The playable ''Fire Emblem'' fighters in ''[[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U]]''. Since the introduction of amiibo, these seven[[note]]when counting both genders of Corrin[[/note]] characters can appear in compatible games in and outside of ''Fire Emblem'' canon together. |
| 284 | |
| 285 | To see the tropes about the individual characters, see Marth's entry on the ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light]]'' character page [[Characters/FireEmblemShadowDragonAndTheBladeOfLight here]], Ike's entry on the ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance Path of Radiance]]'' character page [[Characters/FireEmblemPathOfRadianceGreilMercenaries here]], Robin and Lucina's entries on the ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Awakening]]'' character [[Characters/FireEmblemAwakeningTheLords here]], Roy's entry on ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBindingBlade The Binding Blade]]'' character page [[Characters/FireEmblemTheBindingBlade here]], and Corrin's character page [[Characters/FireEmblemFatesCorrin here]]. Note that all these characters again appear together in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemHeroes'', but their appearance there is unconnected to amiibo. |
| 286 | ---- |
| 287 | * AnotherDimension: Often used in-game to describe how amiibo work if not AlternateUniverse, the SpiritWorld, or the Outrealm Gates. |
| 288 | * AscendedExtra: Particularly in ''Fates'', they're more or less a more fleshed-out version of the Einherjar concept from ''Awakening'', where Marth and Ike were previously available as Einherjar. |
| 289 | * BattleCouple: Robin and Lucina, maybe. It all depends on whether you think they're married or not. |
| 290 | * BattleThemeMusic: All of them have their own theme: |
| 291 | ** Marth has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urEDhIHywZA remix]] of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRKS9N4O7Yc Trouble!]] and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uSbdDdIQiw ''Strike!'']]" from ''Shadow Dragon'' and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkS07Ba52cM "Early Initiative"]] from ''New Mystery of the Emblem'', and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiDYTedu4HA Paean]] from ''Shadow Dragon,'' titled "Path of the Hero-King". |
| 292 | ** Ike has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udsKk_GempI "The Devoted"]], from ''Radiant Dawn'', which was also used in Rogues & Redeemers 3. |
| 293 | ** Lucina has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzLg3oL0jP8 "Rival"]], from ''Awakening''. |
| 294 | ** Robin has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8Tr5bd-h7o "Id (Hope)"]], from ''Awakening''. |
| 295 | ** Roy has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DA3uLUPmUkc remix]] of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0g5t93xUOo&t=0s ''Attack!'']]" from ''The Binding Blade''. |
| 296 | ** Corrin has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRmMcsiLGB4 "Destiny by Blood"]], from ''Revelation''. |
| 297 | * BreakoutCharacter: ''Fire Emblem'' amiibo are generously supported in games besides ''Smash'', most notably to unlock the characters themselves as units in ''VideoGame/CodeNameSteam'' and ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates''. This all but guarantees the characters' place in the ''Fire Emblem'' franchise. While Marth was a given, Roy and Ike were both lesser-known Lords in the series outside of ''Smash'' (due to poor sales of their games and, in Roy's case, NoExportForYou), and Robin and Lucina ended up overshadowing Chrom (the protagonist of their game). |
| 298 | * CanonWelding: ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates'' shows that the versions of the characters summoned via amiibo are the ''Smash'' incarnations, although they also have memories of some version of their canon appearances. For example, Lucina and Robin recognize [[spoiler:Owain, Inigo, and Severa]] in ''Fates'', but it's made clear that they're from a different universe from the trio. |
| 299 | * CipherScything: While Robin was a customizable avatar in ''Awakening'', his amiibo is of the default male appearance. He always appears as such in amiibo-compatible games other than ''Smash'' with his default voice, although time will tell whether the female will appear too. |
| 300 | * CompetitiveBalance: As a result of their DivergentCharacterEvolution + their Smash appearance. Many of the characters in this group are fast, strong sword wielders, but have their stats (bases and growths) tend towards their Smash incarnations while their abilities trend more towards their canon Fire Emblem appearances to make each of them stand out from the others: |
| 301 | ** FragileSpeedster: Marth. His Speed is incredible and often guarantees that he will get in double attacks, but he is often locked to swords which, alongside not-spectacular defensive stats, means he often can't take too many hits. |
| 302 | ** MightyGlacier: Ike. He hits hard and gets good physical defense, and Ragnell gives him up-close and ranged options as well, but his speed tends to be low or otherwise compromised to compensate. |
| 303 | ** JackOfAllStats: Lucina who, compared to the others, has no outstanding traits, but none of the weaknesses that can bring them down as well. |
| 304 | ** SquishyWizard: Robin. As the resident caster of the group and the only one who prefers magic over weapons, he can hit from near or afar with his signature spell and against the typically lower defensive stat, but his defense against physical hits is much lower than the others. |
| 305 | * DemotedToExtra: In ''Echoes'', the amiibo characters are demoted to temporary, faceless phantoms as opposed to fully voiced and playable units as they were in ''Fates'' and ''S.T.E.A.M''. |
| 306 | * DivergentCharacterEvolution: Sort of. Whenever Marth and Lucina have appeared together prior to ''VideoGame/CodeNameSteam'', they have been model or gameplay copies of some sort, likely due to Lucina adopting the "Marth" identity.[[note]]Marth is a headswap of Lucina in ''Awakening'' (who even uses her shorter hairstyle), while Lucina is a MovesetClone of Marth in ''Smash''.[[/note]] In amiibo appearances from ''S.T.E.A.M.'' onward, they have completely different skills and appearances. |
| 307 | * ElementalPowers: Ike and Roy are associated with the [[PlayingWithFire fire]] element, their swords channeling blue and normal flames respectively. Robin, being the magic user of the six, can use any element through his magic tomes, but is associated with the [[ShockAndAwe thunder]] element in particular, having Thoron as his signature spell and wielding the lightning-infused Levin Sword. |
| 308 | * GuysSmashGirlsShoot: Lucina has a bow in ''VideoGame/CodeNameSteam'' even though her default alternate weapon in ''Awakening'' is a lance. She can only get bows by playing with the re-classing system in her home game. Inverted otherwise in regards to her and her fellow ''Awakening'' partner Robin, however: She prefers swinging swords, he prefers casting spells. |
| 309 | * HeroesPreferSwords: Five of them have legendary blades. The Falchion for Marth, Ragnell for Ike, the Parallel Falchion for Lucina, the Binding Blade for Roy, and the Yato for Corrin respectively. Averted with Robin: He is associated with the Levin Sword, but prefers spells, particularly [[ShockAndAwe thunder]] spells. |
| 310 | * LadyNotAppearingInThisGame: Downplayed in ''Echoes'' with Marth. He was included in an ''Echoes''-themed pin set that was released internationally, alongside Alm and Celica. Despite this, Marth never makes any proper appearance in the game nor is he important to the game's plot, unless one uses his amiibo to summon him as an illusory Hero, but even then, it's only for a short while. |
| 311 | * LivingToys: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]. All Smash fighters, including the amiibo characters, are living versions of collectible trophies in some (ambiguous) way. ''Fates'' sheds some more light on this paradigm; it seems to establish that the characters' trophy forms (in this case, the physical amiibo) summon a living version of the character in some imaginary universe (in this case, the canon ''Fire Emblem'' universe), as the amiibo characters are just like any other unit with no reference to their trophy forms. |
| 312 | * MythologyGag: |
| 313 | ** Their skills tend to be a composite of their Smash Bros. interpretation and home game. amiibo Ike tends to be a MightyGlacier like in ''Smash'', rather than a LightningBruiser as in his own games. However, he can use sword beams and axes as in the Tellius series. This is presumably to differentiate the characters, as all of them except Robin are ''very'' similar {{Lightning Bruiser}}s in their canon appearances, while Robin's stats can vary wildly. |
| 314 | ** In ''Fates'', their recruitment battles team them up with enemy units representing their allies from their games of origin. |
| 315 | * OurGhostsAreDifferent: In ''Shadows of Valentia'', their likenesses appear as summonable phantoms, who act on their own, perform their signature attack, then vanish. |
| 316 | * RevenueEnhancingDevices: You essentially unlock optional DLC features and sidequests by buying their figurines. |
| 317 | * RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: All of them except for Ike and Robin are some kind of royalty, and even Robin can also technically qualify if he's married to Lucina or any other noblewoman from ''Awakening''. |
