Added DiffLines:

* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: Of the ModestRoyalty and BunnyEarsLawyer types. Several Fire Emblem games have at least one royal who is rather helpful towards the player - sometimes they're quirky, sometimes they're not, but they're always rather trusting. Seforia however showcases just how this can be taken ''advantage'' of - since Hortensia is able to waltz ''right on in'' to Solm Castle and hold her ransom - and all Hortensia needed to do was say she was with the Divine Dragon.


Added DiffLines:

* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: In the Fell Xenologue, Alternate Fogado's personality is quite similar to his mainstream counterpart... but as an evil character, you see just how ''creepy'' he could ''really'' be.


Added DiffLines:

* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: [[BunnyEarsLawyer Unusual members]] of organisations such as Clergy are nothing new in Fire Emblem. However, they rarely face any consequences for it - Pandreo actually receives quite a lot of criticism for using his congregations to have parties and only gets away with it due to the public liking it and [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections presumably being Fogado's retainer]].

Added DiffLines:

* LethalChef: In contrast to his fellow retainer [[SupremeChef Bunet]], Pandreo is a terrible cook in the Café, being one of the most likely to prepare "Unutterably Alien" or "Not-Quite-Right" food.

* CompositeCharacter: He shares characteristics with both [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBindingBlade Saul]] and, from a gameplay standpoint, [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade Pent]]. He's similar to Saul as they're both unconventional priests who are genuinely faithful underneath, although Pandreo clearly takes his job a lot more seriously than Saul does. His ingame similarities with [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade Pent]] is because both are pre-promoted magic users that join on a desert map. Pandreo's starting equipment even includes an Elfire tome and a Physic staff, the same items Pent joins with.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think if Pandreo shares similarities to both Saul and Pent, that would be Composite Character.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Solm may be known as an open-minded and friendly nation, but they're not above sending out scouts to spy on the other three countries, and generally refuse to involve themselves in those nation's matters unless the situation absolutely calls for it (i.e. Sombron's return). As they see it, helping or being helped by another nation is simply cause for debts they don't want to be bound by. Summed up by Timerra:
-->'''Timerra''': You scratch your back, we'll scratch ours. Thank you very much.

** They've also [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome managed to keep the Elusian army, the Corrupted, and even the Four Hounds from getting their Emblem Rings by the time Alear's group arrive]], constantly fortifying their defenses and preparing for almost every possibility ever since Sombron's revival. Alear is left bewildered at how well Solm has been doing on its own despite the current circumstances.


Added DiffLines:

* HeroicNeutral: Sort of. Despite being an ally to Firene, they will only get involved in conflicts between other nations if they absolutely have to due to a dislike of owing debts.

* AmbiguouslyBrown: The royal family members are definitely not white, due to their dark skin. Various players have read them as Black, Latinx, or Middle Eastern, or some combination. The queendom officially draws inspiration from Brazilian and Middle Eastern cultures, so they’re most likely coded as those, although Afro-Latino is still a possibility, given their Black voice actors in the English version.

* NeverMyFault: In his supports with Timerra, Seadall gets distracted by the smell of the meat she's cooking and according to him, she made a promise to not do it when he is nearby. In their B-support, while Timerra does admit that she made that promise, she also points out that it is always Seadall who comes to her when she is simply cooking and minding her own business and then pins the blame on the smell. Seadall does apologize to her for this after she points this out, though.

Pandreo isn't really a Wendell; Lindon is closer to the archetype


* RecurringElement: As the game's first prepromoted magic-user and a [[BoringButPractical perfectly-serviceable unit for the role]], Pandreo fits the series' Wendell archetype. "Wendells" are generally either teachers or leaders, and Pandreo fits into the latter group as a priest.

* TeamChef: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]. One might ''assume'' that Brunet fills this role, due to how he usually wears chef-like attire, and always talks about food and cooking. However, even after he’s recruited, anyone could potentially be the one to cook for Alear. With that said, Brunet is, unsurprisingly, the best chef in the game, as he's one of the only characters who can make an SS meal and rarely makes anything below a B (if he does, then it's intentional, due to wanting to experiment with new flavors). Brunet was actually supposed to be the Solmic royal chef, but he ended up losing the contest that determined that title.

* CultureChopSuey: The [[{{ArabianNightsDays

* AttackReflector: Fogado's promoted class skill, "Back At You", makes his counter-attacks also deal true damage equal to the damage he took from his attacker's hit. This is [[RecurringElement similar]] to the "Counter" skill from previous ''Fire Emblem'' games, but it's [[{{Nerf}} weaker]] in that Fogado has to hit his attacker with the reflected damage (and also has to be able to counter-attack in the first place).

* LostInTranslation: One of Fogado's dislikes in the Japanese version is swimming, and is even stated to be incapable of it. All references to this are omitted in (at least) the English version, with his dislike being fishing instead. Despite this, he is still seen standing inside the pool in the Somniel during a refresh in that spot, which remains the only remnant of his initial dislike left over from the Japanese version.
