Say'ri is a character from the Fire Emblem Awakening game.

The upright and dignified princess of the Chon'sin dynasty. Her old-fashioned speech and manners set her apart from the Ylisseans. She loves her brother Yen'fay fiercely, but is currently his enemy for some reason. It was for her sake that her brother joined Walhart's army. She found out about this after his death.

Appearance
Say'ri has a straight-cut long black hair and has dark eyes. She wears a white headband around her forehead, a black sleeveless long coat with a furred collar over a lavender long-sleeve gii, both of her shoulders are protected by shoulder armored pads, both of her arms are covered with arm gauntlets and black hang gloves, an armored plate is wrapped around her waist alongside a large black sash that goes over her legs covering her lower parts like a skirt, white slim-fitted shins over white socks and slippers.

Personality
A princess of Chon'sin, Say'ri seems different from the people of Ylisse and has an old fashioned look, which matches her manner of speech. She is willing to explain them to those unacquainted with Chon'sin culture, as shown in her supports with both male and female Robin.

She adores her brother, Yen'fay, though she had fought against him due to not knowing his intentions. She misses her brother dearly, but has trouble coming to terms that he is dead and the one before her is from another world. She also holds a grudge against Excellus due to all the grief he gave her. She is the best skin diver in the army.

Abilities
Say'ri comes into the game about half-way through the storyline. Luckily her stats are around the same as most of the army at that time as promotion should only have just started by then. She also gets increased starting stats in higher difficulties, thus boosting her power as a unit. Compared to her fellow first generation Swordmastercounterpart, Lon'qu, Say'ri has better defensive growths than him but is slightly lacking in speed and skill, two stats associated with her base class. However, her growths in these stats are still high enough to get a boost in nearly every level up. However, Say'ri is held back due to the fact that she cannot support with as many people as Lon'qu can. She will need to pair up with Tiki or Robin (and Morgan if Say'ri is her mother) to get a Dual Support boost. Say'ri starts off with Avoid +10 and Vantage which can both help her train. After 4 level ups, Say'ri will learn her attacking skill Astra, perfect for her to nail elusive enemies and even pile damage with Killing Edges. At level 15, Say'ri will learn Swordfaire, giving her a good boost in strength due to her strength growth at only 55%, may leave her strength a little low. If Lon'qu has not been used by Chapter 15, Say'ri makes a decent replacement as a Swordmaster counterpart.

Say'ri already starts off with Myrmidon skills, but she can shift into Assassin at Level 10 to acquire some more skills and her Skill growth rate goes up by 5%. She also gains another weapon to use in Bows.

Trivia

 * Say'ri shares her English voice actress, Stacy Okada, with Cynthia.
 * She also shares her Japanese voice actress, Seiko Yoshida, with Noire.
 * In her evening barracks line, she says "Good even to you, Robin. Will you be retiring for the night?" While it may look like a translation error at first, "even" was sometimes used for "evening" in Early Modern English. One example of this occurs in Shakespeare's Hamlet, where in Act 1, Scene 2, Hamlet greets the soldier Barnardo by saying "Good even, sir".
 * Say'ri's official artwork depicts her wielding a Killing Edge.
 * Say'ri makes a cameo appearance on one a promotional Tiki card for Fire Emblem 0 (Cipher).
