Emmeryn

Emmeryn is a character from the Fire Emblem Awakening games.

Emmeryn was the Exalt, or Queen, of Ylisse, the older sister of Chrom and Lissa, the aunt of Lucina and Owain.

In the AWA fics, Emmeryn is a student at the AWA Academy.

Appearance
Emmeryn has a long blonde hair with two locks curled into a drill and has faded blue eyes. She wears a green robes with yellow linings over a white long-sleeve dress with slitted sides, green thigh-high leg sleeves, green slips shoes and yellow circlet on the back of her head.

Personality
Unlike her warmongering father, Emmeryn is a peace-loving, kind, and forgiving ruler. She detests fighting as much as possible, and always searches to settle matters peacefully, even against people who wish to kill her. She shows a lot of bravery, willing to walk clearly into a dangerous situation that puts her life at risk without a moment's hesitation. She loves her two younger siblings dearly as well as her people, and cares for their well being. Because of this, she makes the ultimate sacrifice for the well being of everyone at the cost of her own life, feeling that one life could save millions.

Sadly, even though she survived her fall, Emmeryn suffered severe brain damage. As a consequence she is left a shell of her former self, unable to recall much of her former exalted life and having a fragmented speech pattern. Thankfully, she retains her loving and caring personality and a desire to remember her sister and brother. She is the most resilient person in the army. Her birthday is December 23.

Abilities
Emmeryn is a standard Mage Character boasting the highest Magic cap of all non-child characters. Most of her stats are well rounded with an average of 42 for most stats except for two. Her strength growths and caps are dreadful, but this should not be an issue as Sages will not need to rely on strength, though some of her reclassings do. Her defense is low but just slightly ahead of Maribelle, meaning Emmeryn will need to avoid non-magical units especially. Luckily, her staff rank is already at A rank, letting her use Fortify from the beginning and her tomes are at C letting her use Arc spells.

Despite starting off with Mage skills, Emmeryn's base class is not a Mage, but a Cleric much like her sister Lissa. Emmeryn can serve as a great healer in all 3 of her base classes. If she becomes a War Cleric, her stats will balance off, but she will most likely have trouble bringing her strength up enough to do significant damage. Bolt Axes can be a good solution, but Emmeryn will need to train quite a bit or have a few Arms Scrolls to boost her Axe weapon rank. Emmeryn can learn Tomefaire if she continues on 5 more Levels as a Sage, making her an even more powerful Sage and Renewal in the War Cleric class to give her some HP if she ever gets hit physically.

Trivia

 * In the AWA fics, Emmeryn is spared from her canon fate.


 * Two of Emmeryn's starting skills, Magic +2 and Focus, are skills that can only be learned by the Mageclass, which is unavailable to her.
 * Emmeryn's official artwork depicts her wielding a Recover Staff.
 * Emmeryn shares her Japanese voice actress, Akemi Okamura, with Henry.
 * Emmeryn has the least amount of battle audio clips out of the cast, with about half for each category compared to the rest of the cast.
 * According to Chrom, Emmeryn became the Exalt just before her 10th birthday, meaning that she is roughly 24 to 25 years old at the start of Fire Emblem Awakening.
 * Strangely, Emmeryn's NPC variant of her Troubadour spritesheet has her with Lissa's head. This can be viewed when a Spotpass team has a Troubadour Emmeryn on their team.
 * Emmeryn has the Brand of the Exalt emblazoned on her forehead, indicating the Naga Holy Blood present inside her. This is likely a reference to Deirdre from Genealogy of the Holy War who also possessed the Mark of Naga in the same location, but chose to hide it.
