- Quote
- A quote, usually that they say, describing the character without spoilers. Remember that certain characters, such as Alva of Thracia 776, do not have a single line in the game other than their death quote, so do not worry if you cannot find a good quote.

Example
“ | The breeze, the trees, the sky, the brooks... They are all speaking to us. | ” | — Sue to Roy in a support conversation. |
---|
Sue (Japanese: スー Sue) is a character in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. She first appears in Chapter 6.
A Sacaean nomadic girl, Sue is a member of the Kutolah tribe and granddaughter of their leader, Dayan, also known as the Silver Wolf. She is also the daughter of Rath, a playable character from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. While her mother's name is unknown, there is the possibility of Lyn being the other parent, as suggested by her shared ending with Rath.
General information
The next heading will be the name of the game they appear in. If there are multiple, cover all of them in order of the games' release dates. All games will have the following subsections:
Role
In this section, describe the role of the character in the plot.
Starting stats and growth rates
For the starting stats, use the template linked to depending on the game.
Game | Template |
---|---|
Ankoku Ryuu to Hikari no Tsurugi | CharStats FE3 |
Gaiden | CharStats FE2 |
Mystery of the Emblem | CharStats FE3 |
Genealogy of the Holy War | CharStats FE4 |
Thracia 776 | CharStats FE5 |
The Binding Blade | CharStats GBA |
Blazing Sword | CharStats GBA |
The Sacred Stones | CharStats GBA |
Path of Radiance | CharStats GCN |
Radiant Dawn | CharStats Wii |
Shadow Dragon | CharStats DS |
New Mystery of the Emblem | CharStats DS |
BS Fire Emblem | CharStats FE3 |
Promotion gains
Repeat these sections under different game headings if there are any more. A good example would be Hector.
Analysis
Discuss the character's function and usefulness in gameplay here.
Personality and character
This section is two to three paragraphs and usually takes the longest. In the first paragraph, describe the character's personality. Not just in a few sentences, but try to describe every aspect of their personality that is mentioned. Use the support conversations and other parts of the games' scripts for this information.
In the second to third paragraphs, describe how they are related to other characters. Then, describe any stories about their history, if there are any. If there is a lot of information, this section might take three paragraphs in total.
Also, references are required. At least five should be used if they are a playable character, with less being acceptable for NPCs.
Supports
For supports, use the template from the respective game, using the table below to choose the appropriate template. If the character only appears in Fire Emblem Gaiden, this section should be skipped.
Special case: If the character appears only in Genealogy of the Holy War, replace ==Supports== with ==Love growths==.
In case of appearing in Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776, use both sections (==Love growths== and ==Supports==) You can see this in Fin's page.
Game | Template |
---|---|
Mystery of the Emblem | SupportSysFE3 |
Genealogy of the Holy War | LoveSystemGenI LoveSystemGenII |
Thracia 776 | SupportSysFE5 |
The Binding Blade | SupportSysGBA |
Blazing Sword | SupportSysGBA |
The Sacred Stones | SupportSysGBA |
Path of Radiance | SupportSysGCN |
Radiant Dawn | TBA SupportBondFE10 |
Shadow Dragon | SupportSysDS |
New Mystery of the Emblem | SupportSysDS TBA |
Support conversations
For support conversations, which feature in The Binding Blade, Blazing Sword, The Sacred Stones, Path of Radiance, and Radiant Dawn, make a subpage named "Character's name/Supports".
EXAMPLE:
- Main article:
Amelia/Supports
This page should have sections for each person whom the character can support with. In each of those sections, start with one of the following templates:
Game | Template |
---|---|
The Binding Blade | SupportDataGBA |
Blazing Sword | SupportDataGBA |
The Sacred Stones | SupportDataGBA |
Path of Radiance | SupportDataGCN |
Then, order the three conversations per level. First the C level, second the B, and lastly, the A conversation.
In the case of Archanea characters, add a new section to the character's page, ==Base conversations==. The reason for this division is that support conversations are not truly related to supports in New Mystery of the Emblem. Then, make a link to the subpage, which, in this case, is {{main|(Character's name)/Conversations}} and a special template*.
Don't forget to categorize this subpage! Choose the corresponding category/categories:
Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance Category:Supports in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn Category:Support conversations in Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem
Endings
List the character's endings, both regular and paired endings. First goes the regular, then the paired one(s). In the case of The Binding Blade, do not forget to list both short (if the character was not chosen for the final chapter) and long (in case they were chosen) endings.
If they appear in two or more games, write the endings under subsections. This is valid for Tellius characters, too; below ==Endings==, write ===''Radiant Dawn''===, as there are no endings in Path of Radiance, and then put the character's ending.
Quotes
If the quotes section becomes excessively long, move it to its own sub-page.
Death quote
This section is self-explanatory. Use Template:Quote for the sentence(s). First goes the normal death quote, and in case the character has a special one, explain where they say it.
EXAMPLE:
“ | No... It's not… I'm sorry, <player>... Everyone...forgive me... | ” | — Lyn in her story. |
---|
“ | Oh... But I have so... so much... Oh, <player>... | ” | — Lyn in Eliwood/Hector's story. |
---|
Battle quotes
This is a feature not present in all games. Here go all lines said by characters in certain battles, such as when fighting against related characters or in final chapters. Use Template:Quote for this.
Other appearances
List here all other appearances of the characters outside their games. These could be manga and novel adaptations, anime, Super Smash Bros. series or even a truly random cameo. It is recommended to create different subsections for each appearance.
Etymology and other languages
The meaning of the name. A reference should be used, preferably from ThinkBabyNames.com or Behind The Name. After the reference, the relationship to the character's role or personality should be stated. If there are mythological ties to it, they should be listed after the meaning.
For this section, use Template:Names.
Trivia
Self-explanatory.
Gallery
For games with sprites, it is recommended to use this table:
{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width: 75%; border: 1px solid {{Color2}}; background: {{Color1}}; {{round}}" align="center" |- ! style="border: 1px solid {{Color2}}; widith: 50%; background: {{Color1}}; {{round}}" align="center" | (HERE GO SMALL PORTRAITS) Sprite Gallery |- | {| style="width: 100%; background: {{Color3}}; {{round}}; border: 1px solid {{Color2}}" | align="center" rowspan="3" | (For the main portrait) | style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="(Number of sprites)" | (Character's first class) | style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="(Number of sprites)" | (Character's second class) | style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}; border-bottom: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" colspan="(Number of sprites)" | (Character's third class) |- | style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" | (The sprite file)<br>(Link to the weapon's page) | style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" | (The sprite file)<br>(Link to the weapon's page) | style="border-left: 1px solid {{Color2}}" align="center" | (The sprite file)<br>(Link to the weapon's page) |} |}
EXAMPLE:
style="border: 1px solid #b0b0b0; widith: 50%; background: #232855; Template:Round" align="center" | Sprite Gallery | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A gallery for the Tellius games is in the making.
