Personality and character
Owain is a hot-blooded youth with a passion for legendary heroes and, more importantly, their legendary weapons. He almost constantly speaks in a theatrical manner, concocting extensive narratives about himself as a chosen hero cursed with an uncontrollable sword hand which thirsts for the blood of his enemies. He is aware, however, that people find this behaviour of his unusual and that his mother disapproves of doing so, which sometimes causes him to drop the act when talking to certain people[1]
Owain has a particularly strong passion for weaponry and the mythology which comes to surround it. He loves naming weapons himself, claiming it to be a means of granting a soul to the instruments. In particular, he seeks the Mystletainn of Jugdral for his own use, and in his eagerness ended up mistaking a common generic sword for it. For all his obsession over the myths and names surrounding, Owain is actually highly competent at weapon maintenance, citing it as a personal hobby[2][3]

Endings
Owain, Chosen One (single ending)
Owain tried settling down in Ylisse but ultimately set off on a lengthy quest to "stay his sword hand." Oddball heroes matching his description continue to crop up in local legends to this day.
Owain, Chosen One & <Avatar>, High Deliverer
Many wrote of <Avatar>'s legendary exploits, but accounts of her origins and character varied. Scholars, poets, and bards agreed on one thing alone—she loved her husband, Owain, above all else.
Owain, Chosen One & Lucina, Foreseer
Owain set off on a lengthy quest with Lucina to "stay his sword hand." Did they simply journey to another land, or did they return to their own time? None know for certain.
Owain, Chosen One & Kjelle, Fair Fighter
Owain set off on a lengthy quest with Kjelle to "stay his sword hand." The idea was actually Kjelle's, and he was just along while she trained but she had the grace to let his delusions continue.
Owain, Chosen One & Cynthia, Hero Chaser
Owain set off on a lengthy quest with Cynthia to "stay his sword hand." Their semidelusional journey was said to be one of much mayhem and mirth.
Owain, Chosen One & Severa, Secret Dreamer
Owain set off on a lengthy quest with Severa to "stay his sword hand." Though Severa nagged her husband mercilessly, she also provided much love and support.
Owain, Chosen One & Morgan, Gift from Afar
Owain set off on a lengthy quest with Morgan to "stay his sword hand." While Morgan's memory never returned, she didn't seem to miss it, and the two lived out their days most happily.
Owain, Chosen One & Noire, Miss Personality
Owain set off on a lengthy quest with Noire to "stay his sword hand." Noire worried endlessly about what terrors her husband's sword hand might hold, but as it turned out, there were none.
Owain, Chosen One & Nah, Little Miss
Owain set off on a lengthy quest with Nah to "stay his sword hand." Nah got much eye-rolling practice during the tiresome journey, but she stayed by her husband's side nonetheless.

Other appearances
Trivia
- As with the other children characters of Awakening, Owain's birthday matches the Japanese release date of a Fire Emblem series game: July 15th was the release date of Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem in 2010.
- In his conversations with other characters, Owain frequently makes reference to earlier games in the Fire Emblem series, both using their titles as war cries (e.g. "BINDING... BLAAADE!") or by citing individual characters in exclamations (e.g. "by Ike's ghost!" or "Shinon Strike").
- Owain's Brand of the Exalt is situated on his upper arm, like Chrom's; that he possesses the Brand confirms that Lissa, whose Brand never eventuated much to her distress, is indeed a legitimate scion of House Ylisse[4].

Owain: Y–yeah, I'm fine. It's just... You're a princess, Lucina. I figured it wasn't exactly appropriate for addressing royals. Plus, Mom would tan my hide if she ever found out.
Lucina: Lissa would object to you spinning yarns for royalty?
Owain: Not just royalty! Anybody! She gets really upset whenever I do it. Heh, actually, I suppose most everyone does.

Lissa: Th-then you know? That I don't...
Owain: That your Brand never surfaced? Yes, you told me as such. You said it always weighed on you... You should have seen how happy you were the day mine appeared! You were sobbing and laughing for an hour without pause!

Owain: Yes, well. No more worrying. It was by chance alone your Brand never surfaced. We're all family, linked by blood. You really are Chrom's sister. My Brand proves our lineage." — Lissa and Owain, Fire Emblem Awakening
