“ | Back when I was fighting alongside Lord Quan, there was a beautiful warrior in Lord Sigurd's army. As she stood there with her long blonde hair flowing in the wind, her sheer beauty reminded me of a goddess. She was the heir to the Jungby family, who had inherited the holy bow, the Yewfelle. Her name was... Briggid... | ” | — Finn |
---|
(Japanese: ブリギッド Briggid) is a noblewoman of Grannvale's House Jungby, a full-blooded descendant of the Crusader Ulir, the daughter of Lord Ring, the sister of Adean and Andorey, and the inheritor of the holy bow Yewfelle. She was separated from her family and adopted by the pirates of Orgahil as a young child, eventually rising to become their leader. During the Agustrian civil war she was reunited with Adean and joined her in Sigurd's army.
Years after the Battle of Belhalla, having lost her memories of her former life, Briggid re-emerged in Thracia as Eyvel (Japanese: エーヴェル Eyvel), a travelling mercenary. She became the leader of the small village of Fiana and founded the Fiana Freeblades to defend the region from bandits. While in Fiana, Eyvel adopted Mareeta as her surrogate daughter, and helped protect the fugitive Prince Leif. In the year 776, when Nanna and Mareeta were abducted by Raydrik, she set out with Leif to rescue them and liberate the Thracia Peninsula, but was captured and turned to stone by Veld, motivating Leif to raise a revolution army to oppose Raydrik and Grannvale.
Biography
As Briggid
In her early childhood, Briggid accompanied Ring and her siblings on a religious pilgrimage to the Blagi Tower, but during the journey their ship was caught in a storm. Briggid was separated from her family as they evacuated the ship.[1] She was found by the pirates of Orgahil, a renowned "honorable pirate" gang, whose captain took her in as his adopted daughter.[2]
When her foster father died, Briggid succeeded him as the leader of the Orgahil pirates. Her leadership of the group continued her father's honorable tradition, believing herself to have a duty to aid the poor of Orgahil and Agustria, to the dismay of some of the band's members. In Grann 759, during the climax of the Agustrian civil war, her former subordinate Duvall led the pirates in a mutiny against Briggid in response to her criticism of their attacks on Agustrian villages, and during her escape she was reunited with Adean, now part of Sigurd's army fighting to defend the people of Agustria from the pirates. Adean convinced Briggid to attempt to draw Yewfelle, restoring her lost memories of her childhood in Jungby, and she joined Sigurd's army in fighting the pirates, in exile in Silesse and in Sigurd's ill-fated march on Grannvale to confront the lies perpetrated against him. At some point during this time, she had two children: Faval and Patty, who ended up in an orphanage in Conote.
As Eyvel
Briggid was present at the Battle of Belhalla and survived it, but was wounded and stripped of her memories. Six years after the battle, she was found washed up on the eastern coastline of Thracia by residents of the village of Iss, and was rescued and taken in by them.[3] Adopting the identity of Evyel, she took to travelling as a mercenary and came to the village Fiana, successfully freeing it from a long-standing bandit infestation. She became the leader of the village and established the Fiana Freeblades to defend it and the surrounding area. At some point during this time, she ventured to Conote and found a slave market attempting to sell Mareeta, for which she killed the slave traders and rescued Mareeta. Eyvel was unable to find Mareeta's father, and so took her in as her own adopted daughter.[4]
The year Grann 773 saw the arrival of three fugitives in Fiana: Leif, Nanna and Finn. Eyvel allowed all three to settle in hiding in Fiana and sought to protect them from possible pursuits by the Grannvale Empire, although as time wore on Leif and Finn started assisting the Freeblades in combat missions. In Grann 776, while returning from a pirate-fighting mission with Leif and the Fiana Freeblades, Eyvel found that Fiana had been assaulted by Raydrik and his army in their absence, and was now under their control. Though initially hesitant to let Leif get caught in the fight, or to rush into an uncertain situation, she nonetheless decided to storm the village to retake it. Once the army was driven out, she found that Nanna and Mareeta had been taken as hostages by Raydrik. At Leif's insistence, she decided to depart for Manster with the militia the next day, intending to rescue the two.
After the fight at Fort Kelbeth, when Raydrik arrived to capture Leif, Eyvel voluntarily also surrendered herself to captivity in order to look after Leif. The two and Lifis were taken to a prison in Manster, and Eyvel was taken by Raydrik to an arena in the upper castle in order to see Nanna and Mareeta. In the arena, she and Nanna were pitted against several warriors, with Raydrik promising that she could see Mareeta if the warriors were defeated; when she did so, Mareeta was let into the arena, brainwashed by the Shadow Sword and seeking to kill Eyvel; Veld then turned Eyvel to stone.
Some time later, after the defeat of Raydrik, obtaining the Kia staff and learning that Sara was capable of using it, Leif travelled to the Loptyrian temple to which Veld had retreated, and there found the still-petrified Eyvel and had Sara cure her. There, she reunited with the Fiana Freeblades, was thanked by Galzus for raising Mareeta where he could not, and was approached by Finn about her true identity. Despite Finn's certainty that he had previously known Eyvel as Briggid, Eyvel denied the possibility of being a Crusader's heir as outlandish. Nonetheless, years after the conflict ended, her memory of her true identity as Briggid eventually returned and she was reunited with Faval and Patty, now adults and the rulers of House Jungby.
Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
Role
Briggid is a playable unit in the first generation. She is the only first-generation unit capable of wielding Yewfelle, and along with Quan she is one of the first playable first-generation units who can access a Crusader weapon. If she is married by the end of Chapter 5, then her children Faval and Patty will be available in the second generation.

Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
Role
Eyvel is a playable unit who is introduced as part of the starting party in Chapter 1. After completing Chapter 3, Eyvel is forced to leave the party along with everyone else except Lifis. She is briefly playable again in Chapter 5, being trapped in the central arena with Nanna, but she will inevitably be petrified as part of the chapter's story and will leave the party again for almost the rest of the game.
She is re-recruitable in Chapter 24x by using the Kia staff to cure her petrification. If Chapter 24x is skipped or the player fails to use Kia on Eyvel, she will instead appear as the Deadlord Draco in the Endgame. As Draco is a Sniper (her class as Briggid), not a Swordmaster (her class as Eyvel), this was likely intended as a hint at her original identity.

Like all female bonus units in Awakening, Eyvel has access to all base class and advanced class skills available to standard female units.
Personality and character
In contrast to her calm and reserved sister, Briggid was energetic, headstrong and fierce. She never wasted words, preferring to cut straight to the point in no uncertain terms, and did not take kindly to attempts by her pirate subordinates to contravene her mission of honesty and charity. In her Eyvel persona, while still as determined to defend the weak as ever, she mellowed slightly and adopted a more maternal persona. Leif, Nanna and many of the youths of Fiana all came to view Eyvel as a mother figure in their lives, playing a strong role in their upbringing and development in the absence of their lost mothers.[5]
