Shannam is a prepromoted level 1 [[Swordmaster]] that joins in [[Dark Forest|Chapter 16B]] of ''Thracia 776'' by talking to [[Homer]]. Uncharacteristically for a unit of his class or any prepromote in general, all of his base stats are very low, with only his speed and skill being passable, along with having a [[FCM]] of 0. His 9 speed is the same as [[Osian]], but he debuts in Chapter 1, while Shannam joins relatively late in the game, and his speed is especially lacking for his class, having the lowest speed even when considering the playable [[Myrmidon | Shannam is a prepromoted level 1 [[Swordmaster]] that joins in [[Dark Forest|Chapter 16B]] of ''Thracia 776'' by talking to [[Homer]].

His 9 speed is the same as [[Osian]], but he debuts in Chapter 1, while Shannam joins relatively late in the game, and his speed is especially lacking for his class, having the lowest speed even when considering the playable [[Myrmidon]]s in the series, who all start with at least 10 speed. Shannam does not have any useful combat skills other than [[Adept]], and even then, his [[speed]] is too low for him to have meaningful activation chances. He will contribute nothing in his joining chapter, as he is recruited in a chapter taking place deep in the forest, giving everyone boosted [[avoid]]. The [[Iron Blade]] he starts with cripples his attack speed down to zero, harming his avoid as well, so it is recommended to give him a lighter sword. | ||
Shannam has high growths in [[HP]], [[strength]], speed, and [[luck]]. However, as he joins promoted, his experience gain is low, so getting him out of his poor bases will take a while. His other stats only have a very low growth at 5%. His low [[Skill (stat)|skill]] stat in particular will give him middling hit rates in battle. His C-rank in swords is somewhat serviceable, but at this stage in the game even a unit with a low starting sword rank like [[Carrion]] will have at least a C in swords, and he will be locked out of the best swords until he can make his way to a B-rank. There are ways to make Shannam good at combat if the player is very dedicated, but doing so requires a lot of effort and investment, and there is nothing special about him when trained up that justifies his usage, outside of attempting to make a poor unit good. | Shannam has high growths in [[HP]], [[strength]], speed, and [[luck]].
