Darros (Japanese: ダロス Daross) is a pirate in the Fire Emblem series.
Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light
Role
Darros was a member of the Galder pirates. When Marth and his army arrived in Galder, Darros approached him and requested to leave the pirates and join Marth's forces. Marth accepted him into his army, and he served him for the rest of the War of Shadows.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Darros is the only playable member of the Pirate class, which is unique in that it can walk over water terrain, allowing Darros to gain avoid bonuses when attacking on that terrain and traverse certain maps faster than other units; however, flying units can already traverse the terrain faster, and the avoid bonus is a decent benefit but not a huge strength. Statistically, he joins with a speed of 7, which is decent in the early-game but his 10% growth make it very hard to have a decent speed stat long-term. His base strength of 6 and 50% growth are both fairly solid, and his weapon level is high enough to use every axe, including strong weapons like the Devil Axe and Hammer. His base defense of 5 is not great, but his 40% growth is one of the best defense growths in the game and can bring his defense up to a decent point. Unfortunately, his skill is terrible, with a base of 2 and growth of 0%, meaning he will have terrible accuracy for the entire duration of the game. Additionally, his movement of 6 is fairly bad, and his ability to traverse more terrain doesn't really make up for it. Also, his lack of promotion deprives him of potentially useful stat boosts. His best attribute is his availability, as he joins in Chapter 2, meaning even though he is an overall mediocre unit, he can contribute for almost the entirety of the game and is worth deploying in the early chapters when you haven't recruited enough good units yet. However, in the long-term, Darros is a fairly mediocre unit.
Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon
Role
Darros is a pirate who decides to turn over a new leaf. Upon hearing of Marth's approach, he tracks him down and joins his forces. Despite appearing as an enemy, he is not aggressive towards the player's units, only moving towards Marth to initiate his recruitment conversation. He then serves as a simple soldier for the rest of the war.

Fire Emblem Heroes
Role
Darros was first added to the game in a special pirate variation as part of the Pirate's Pride update, and was made available to players in the thirty-first edition of the Tempest Trials+, "Royal Treasures", which initially ran from August 8, 2020 through August 18, 2020. The aforementioned pirate variation of Darros is the only one currently available in Heroes, and is based on his Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light incarnation; this variation is notably only the second character or variation solely credited to that game in the history of Heroes, after Wrys (who had held that distinction since Heroes's initial launch). Darros is one of a rare number of characters to have been made available only as a special variation without a normal variation of them available (no files at all exist in the game for their regular versions).
