Lombard (Japanese: ランゴバルト Langobalt) was the Duke of Grannvale's House Dozel, a full-blooded descendant of the Crusader Nál and inheritor of the Helswath. Engaged in a longtime grudge against Chalphy's Duke Byron, he worked with Reptor of Friege in their plots to seize power of Grannvale for themselves, successfully framing Byron and his son Sigurd for crimes of conspiracy against the Grannvale crown.

Biography

At the onset of Grannvale's war with Isaach in Grann 757, Lombard remained behind in Grannvale instead of accompanying the army, and along with Reptor initiated the first rumors implicating the Chalphy family in conspiracy against the crown while Byron's son Sigurd was fighting in Agustria.[1] At the war's conclusion, Lombard intercepted Prince Kurth and Byron on their return, assassinated Kurth and severely wounded Byron, successfully implicating Byron and Sigurd for the crime while avoiding placing any evidence linking himself or Reptor to it. Shortly afterward, along with Reptor he led an army to Agustria to capture Sigurd, following the latter's conquest of the country.

In Grann 760, around the time of the Silesse civil war in which Sigurd fought, Lombard and Andrey led an assault on Silesse to attempt again to capture Sigurd, seizing the south-eastern Lubeck Castle as a base of operations. Instead of dragging Silesse into war with Grannvale, Sigurd's army departed the country and directly assaulted Lubeck, resulting in Lombard's death in the ensuing battle.

Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War

Role

Lombard is a boss of Lubeck in Chapter 5 and the guardian of its castle.

Personality

Throughout his life, Lombard was strongly guided by his intense hatred of Byron,[2] which led him to fear Byron's influence with Kurth becoming a threat to his power in Grannvale's political arena.[3] As a result, he was easily manipulated by Arvis and Manfroy into executing their schemes to seize Grannvale for themselves.[4] For all his susceptibility to his own passions, he was nonetheless cunning enough to successfully frame Byron for Kurth's assassination.[5]

Lombard regularly expressed frustration at his sons, Danann and Lex, if they failed to meet his expectations, dismissing both as worthless.[6] However, no matter how low he personally sunk, he still had what he viewed as standards: he considered Andrey's murder of his own father Ring and Andrey's subsequent attitude about it to be despicable.[7]

Trivia

  • According to Fire Emblem: Treasure, Lombard had two wives or lovers, and as such Danann and Lex are half-brothers. Additionally, he had a second child with Danann's mother, who presumably died before the events of Genealogy of the Holy War; on the family tree, their entry (defined as "unknown") is scratched out.[8]
