After Chrom defeats Marth in [[Ferox]], Lissa learns her friend, [[Maribelle]], was kidnapped and suggests Chrom goes to save her. Later, after an assassination attempt on her older sister, [[Emmeryn]], fails, she learns Emmeryn was captured and is to be put to death by order of King [[Gangrel]] of [[Plegia]]. When Emmeryn takes her own life to spare Chrom any further conflict, Lissa is devastated. After this, Lissa has no real importance for the remainder of the story, only taking part in a few conversations.

Lissa is one of the first characters in your army, and a quite valuable one since she is the only healer for the first few chapters. Her growth rates are serviceable, aside from her low defense growth, but her bases are rather mediocre, and she will usually die quite easily from an enemy attack on higher difficulties. Even if Lissa could take an attack from an enemy or save her life with the [[Miracle]] skill, it is usually a bad idea to place her in enemy range since she cannot counterattack, so keep her away from enemies as good as possible and let your other units do the fighting. As long as she stays away from combat, most of her base stats do not matter, aside from her magic stat which is actually pretty decent with a base of 5 and a growth of 50%.

Once Lissa has accumulated enough experience to promote, she can change her class into [[War Cleric]] or [[Sage]]. War Cleric grants her more durability and strength as well as access to axes, [[Rally Luck]] and [[Renewal]]. Unfortunately, none of these assets are very interesting for Lissa: an E axe rank will not allow her to do decent damage since her strength base and growth were pretty poor as a Cleric, Rally Luck is one of the worse support skills and Renewal won't help her much at surviving enemies since Lissa will still have trouble surviving multiple enemies even with the extra durability of the War Cleric. Sage on the other hand gives her a better boost to magic and grants her access to tomes, [[Rally Magic]] and [[Tomefaire]]. While an E tome rank won't make Lissa a great combat unit, at least it uses her magic stat, which will usually be higher than her strength stat as War Cleric. It additionally gives her a 2-range option at the start, allowing her to avoid more counterattacks—in comparison, War Cleric will only gain ranged axes at D rank, requiring some investment. Rally Magic is a very decent support skill, and Tomefaire gives Lissa a well-welcomed boost to her magic. Since staff range and healing depends on your staff users magic stat, having more magic on them is always good.

Aside the Cleric class tree, Lissa also can reclass into [[Troubadour]] or [[Pegasus Knight]] and their respective promotions. [[Demoiselle]] is a neat skill to support male allies, but usually it is not worth the detour of reclassing into Troubadour, since being in a promoted class is a bigger improvement for Lissa. The [[Valkyrie]] class is similar to the Sage class, but trades higher movement for the cost of having slightly worse magic and no access to Tomefaire. [[Rally Resistance]] is useful later on once you meet more magic enemies, while [[Dual Support+]] improves the support bonuses for and from Lissa, making Valkyrie a good reclassing option after mastering the Sage class. The [[Falcon Knight]] promotion is also interesting for Lissa, since it also increases her mobility and grants her access to [[Rally Speed]], another good support skill. On the other hand, having lances as weapons and [[Lancefaire]] as skill doesn't help Lissa much, making the class a lot less appealing to master compared to Valkyrie. As [[Dark Flier]], Lissa loses her ability to wield staves, but gets the possibility to learn [[Galeforce]], which can be passed down on [[Owain]] to greatly improve his combat performance. However, due to the way experience scaling after reclassing works in ''Awakening'', it will typically take a very long time for her to actually learn the skill.

All in all, Lissa is a good staff user throughout the entire game, mostly thanks to her early join time and decent class options.
