Raydrik (Japanese: レイドリック Leidrik) was the Duke of Munster, in league with and subservient to the Grannvale Empire and the Loptr Church during the former's occupation of the Munster District, and a major antagonist in Fire Emblem: Thracia 776.

Biography

Raydrik was a noble and general in the service of King Carl of Connacht, whom he had helped ascend to the throne,[1] he played an integral role in the downfall of Leonster by betraying Leonster to Thracia's King Travant, but promptly in turn betrayed Thracia to Grannvale, allowing the latter to take control of the Munster District and cow Thracia into subservience. As a reward for his role in Leonster's downfall, Raydrik was appointed the Duke of Munster by Bloom, Grannvale's newly-installed "king" of the Munster District. As a Loptrian agent under its Bishop Veld, Raydrik allowed the cult's influence and activities to dominate the region,[2] and was granted the Loptr Sword by Veld.

In the year Grann 776, he personally led an assault by Munster's army on the village of Fiana, kidnapping Nanna and Mareeta. Following Leif's capture of Fort Kelbeth, Raydrik appeared and arrested him, Eyvel and Lifis, taking them to Munster Castle and imprisoning them in its dungeon. He then took Eyvel and set her to battle in the castle's arena with Nanna, watching the battle with Veld; when Eyvel continued to successfully fight his gladiators, Veld petrified her, and the two departed with the Eyvel statue while Nanna escaped with Leif.

Around a year later, Leif's revolution army stormed Munster following their successful recapture of Leonster, and Raydrik attempted a last stand against their momentum after begging Veld to give him a last chance at stopping Leif's army. The protection bestowed upon him by his Loptr Sword was pierced by a member of Leif's army wielding the Bragi Sword, and he was killed in the battle; when he died, his body was teleported away by Veld[3] and used to create an incarnation of the Deadlord Mus.

Fire Emblem: Thracia 776

Role

Raydrik is a recurring boss. In Chapter 5, Raydrik appears in an unreachable space near the center of the map. He will leave once Eyvel has been petrified. In Chapter 6, he appears in an unreachable space. In Chapter 24, Raydrik appears on a throne, the chapter's seize point.

Personality

Raydrik was avaricious, power-hungry and thirsted for constant control of his surrounds and situation, but in practice possessed no real might or charisma of his own. He carved his place in the world, before and after the Grannvale claim to the Munster District, through a succession of deals with greater powers - first through his installation of Carl as the king of Connacht,[1] and later through his deals with Thracia, Grannvale and the Loptrians and his betrayal of the former. He was terrified of the notion of being abandoned by his allies and subordinates, perhaps out of awareness that he would be nothing without the strength of others,[4] and was extremely aggressive to all who dared question him, with his default response to such situations being a tirade of unimaginative threats. He craved power for power's sake and had no grasp of a world beyond his quests for dominance; when Walhart questioned his Einherjar incarnation in the Outrealms on his motives, Raydrik was at a complete loss as to what he would do after conquering all who would oppose him.[5]

Notes

  1. In Thracia 776, Castle Munster is nicknamed "the Demon King's Castle" (Japanese: 魔王の城 maō no shiro). FireLizard's translation, which is used in Shaya's fan translation patch, translates this as "the Palace of Evil".

  1. 1.0 1.1 " 'After my [King Carl's] father died, I've been target of countless assassination attempts from a faction that would rather see my uncle as the king. However, God sided with the legitimate successor. Starting with Raydrik, the amount of people supporting me increased, and finally I was able to be recognized as king.' "Sorie, Serenes Forest translation of Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 Illustrated Works, Retrieved: March 16, 2013
  2. "He is the mastermind behind all of the Loptrian activities in Thracia. He is the one who started the child hunting and sent the Bergrosen to burn down uncooperative villages. Raydrik was simply one of Veld's henchmen." — August, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
  3. "But did we really kill Raydrik? When I finished him off, his body simply disappeared into thin air." — Leif, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
  4. "Veld: Raydrik...I hear you have allowed the rebels inside the castle.
    Raydrik: Yes... But if you would give me some time, I will be sure have them eliminated...
    Veld: Don't make promises you can't keep. It is obvious that the rebels have the upper hand...
    Raydrik: ......
    Veld: Pity...I would have expected you to do better than this. This is it, Raydrik. I am finished with you.
    Raydrik: B-Bishop Veld, please... Without you, we would all be...
    Veld: Then do your best...
    " — Veld and Raydrik, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
  5. "Raydrik: You there. I know a man of ability when I see one. Why don't you and I join forces?
    Walhart: ...To what end?
    Raydrik: To lay waste to my enemies! To conquer the world and force all to kneel before me!
    Walhart: ...And then what?
    Raydrik: Beg pardon?
    Walhart: I want to know what you'll do once you have the world at your feet.
    Raydrik: What? Well, that's obvious. I'd, er...
    Walhart: ...You have no idea, do you? Pathetic...
    Raydrik: I... I am not!
    Walhart: A conquest with no purpose cannot be called a conquest. You want me to waste my talents on YOU? A schoolyard bully with a stick could dream up greater ambitions!
    Raydrik: B-bully?!
    Walhart: Leave me be, lest your stupidity somehow infect me as well.
    Raydrik: I...I'll have your tongue for that! ...Wait! Stop, damn you!
