Yarne is a character from the Fire Emblem Awakening game.

Panne's son from the future. He's timid and extremely cowardly. Afraid of the extinction of the Taguel race (i.e. himself), he's reluctant to fight on the front lines, but will put himself in danger for his friends. Has the loudest voice in the army.

Appearance
Yarne is pretty tall. He has a light-grayish skin tone, has a wild neck-length black hair with white strands in the middle, white lop ears and has dark eyes. Parts of his body is cover with black fur including his shoulders, legs and the back of his hands. He wears a black sleeveless armored shirt, black shoulder armor, black furred loincloth with white string wrapped around his waist, and black knee-high armored shin guards.

Personality
Yarne is cowardly, timid, and excessively worried as a result and is often on edge to his surroundings. He is extremely sensitive to anything that poses a threat to his survival, even the most minuscule of actions or objects that are non-lethal except in the absurdly extreme of circumstances causes and overreaction.

Yarne is actually robust in constitution and is a skilled fighter, especially when pushed into a corner. Despite prioritizing his safety, he is more than willing to throw himself in the way of an enemy to protect a precious comrade. His primary motivation to become stronger is to namely increase his chances of survival. Upon arrival in the present, this has since evolved to also protect his mother so that she can live on this time.

Yarne carries an extreme weight on his shoulders as in the future, with the death of his mother, he has become the new "Last Taguel". Yarne fears for his life as a result and would rather avoid fighting at all costs as his death would lead to the extinction of the Taguel back in the future. When arriving in the present, he became paranoid that his father may cheat on Panne as if that were to occur, his present counterpart would cease to exist. With some assurance from his father, he is relieved that his father will remain faithful.

Like his mother, he has no knowledge of traditional Taguel customs, but the two vow to forge new ones for their descendants. He is the loudest person in the army.

Abilities
Yarne's Taguel class offers him very high growths in every stat across the board, except Resistance, which will always be mediocre.

Trivia

 * Yarne, for some reason, will not inherit the Wyvern Rider class from his mother despite the fact that the class is for both genders. He inherits the Barbarian related classes instead, indicating that Panne may have originally supposed to have the female only Pegasus Knight or Troubadour as an option. However, if his father also has the Wyvern Rider class, then he is not barred from the class.
 * Yarne's birthday is the same day Fire Emblem Gaiden was first released in Japan and the same day Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn was first released in Europe. It is also on the same day as White Day, a holiday celebrated in Japan and other countries that is very similar to Valentine's Day.
 * Yarne was voted the second least popular male character in the Fire Emblem Awakening Character Popularity Poll in Japan.
 * Yarne's English voice actor, Christopher Corey Smith, is also one of the three male Robin's voices, Slaydein Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, Thales and Arundel in Fire Emblem: Three Houses, as well as Seth, Reinhardt, and Legion in Fire Emblem Heroes.
 * He also shares his Japanese voice actor, Daisuke Endo, with Vaike, as well as Miklan in Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
 * Unlike the other children, only a tuft on Yarne's hair inherits a color from his father. The rest of his hair always stays brown, no matter who his father is.
 * The rest of his hair does appear in a slightly different color in his confession CG however; which depending on the tuft color will typically range from varying shades of black to dark brown.
 * Since Panne's reclassing options are gender neutral, Yarne is the only male child character who cannot inherit any skills from a female-only class. He shares this trait (albeit gender flipped) with Lucina.
 * Yarne's Critical Hit quote "I've got sharp, pointy teeth!" is likely a reference to the "Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog" from the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
