In gameplay, Deirdre is the only character of the first generation who does not permanently die when defeated in battle; if this happens, she is found captured upon the seizing of the chapter's final castle and returns to be playable in the next chapter as if nothing ever happened, stating she was merely captured by the enemy. She cannot leave the home castle at all in [[Eldigan, the Lionheart|Chapter 3]], but after Madino has been seized she permanently leaves the party in an event.
Deirdre is a playable character during the first generation. She is recruited in [[Lady of the Forest|Chapter&nbsp;1]] by having [[Sigurd]] enter the Spirit Forest. If Deirdre is defeated in battle, she will be available again at the start of the following chapter. At the start of [[Eldigan, the Lionheart|Chapter&nbsp;3]], Deirdre can't leave the home [[castle]]. Once [[Madino]] is seized, Deirdre will be permanently removed from the party.

Deirdre is available early in the first generation, towards the end of Chapter 1. She starts at level 3 with very high magic and resistance and is essentially a light mage. She has a very powerful personal weapon in the [[Aura]] tome, supplemented by her high magic, which can deal massive damage to enemies. Light and dark magic in this game have the advantage on all the anima magic types, so she is an excellent candidate against mages, dealing a lot of damage to them and barely taking them. Deirdre also has two types of Holy Blood: Major Naga Blood and Minor Loptous Blood, giving her a ★ level in light magic. She starts with a Silence staff, which is very important against the final boss of the chapter she joins in, [[Sandima]], due to his powerful spells. Due to her B level in staves, she can also play a supporting role if she is given a staff. She also has a piece of equipment exclusive to her, the [[Circlet]], which grants her two useful skills in [[Miracle]] and [[Renewal]]. The former increases her ability to dodge if she's in danger, while the latter gradually restores her HP at every turn. Lastly, she has a [[Love|lover]] right off the bat in Sigurd, allowing her to perform criticals that one-shot enemies if she fights close to him.
Deirdre is available early in the first generation, towards the end of [[Lady of the Forest|Chapter&nbsp;1]]. She starts at level&nbsp;3 with very high [[Magic (stat)|magic]] and [[resistance]]. She has a very powerful pseudo-personal weapon in the [[Aura]] tome, supplemented by her high magic, which can deal massive damage to enemies. [[Light (magic)|Light]] and [[dark]] magic in this game have the advantage on all the [[anima]] magic types, so she is an excellent candidate against mages, dealing a lot of damage to them and barely taking any in return. Deirdre also has two types of Holy Blood: Major [[Naga]] Blood and Minor [[Loptous]] Blood; the former gives her a ★ level in light magic, while the latter does nothing (as she does not wield dark magic) except boosting her growth rates like all other Holy Bloods. She starts with a [[Silence (staff)|Silence]] staff, which is very important against the final boss of the chapter she joins in, [[Sandima]], due to his powerful spells, in particular, his long range [[Fenrir]] tome makes him dangerous to approach. Due to her B&nbsp;level in staves, she can also play a supporting role if she is given a staff. She also has a piece of equipment exclusive to her, the [[Circlet]], which grants her two useful [[skills]] in [[Miracle]] and [[Renewal]]. The former increases her ability to dodge if she is in danger, while the latter gradually restores her HP at every turn. Lastly, she has a [[love]]r right off the bat in Sigurd, allowing her to perform criticals that one-shot enemies if she fights close to him.


However, Deirdre has her flaws. She has very low availability, being only playable for the end of Chapter 1, and the entirety of Chapter 2 before getting kidnapped after Sigurd seizes the first castle in Chapter 3, where she can't be leave Augusty. Her HP and Defense are very low, so she takes a large amount of damage and must be protected. While Renewal helps her survive, it only activates at the start of player phase, and while her speed is decent, Aura has a massive 20 weight, hindering her dodging abilities without Miracle. With her poor movement of 5, she also has issues in getting to battle enemies, and her growths are very lopsided, with very high magic and resistance but low skill, and her other growths are even worse. If she loses all her HP, she won't die, but she will be captured until the end of the chapter, and as she is not available for long, there aren't many chances of training her outside of the arena, where she can have trouble in going very far. While the Light Priestess can promote into a [[Sage]], Deirdre is unable to do so, especially since she can't be used for long, and in Chapter 3, she can only fight in the arena, where she may need some rings to do well, but they are expensive and she has difficulty in getting the gold to buy them outside of Sigurd's or without help from [[Dew]]. She has one personal skill, [[Nihil]], which is not useful to her because there are no situations where it helps her, and she suffers from a lack of skills that help her in combat, especially [[Follow-Up]], and while the critical bonus from Sigurd can help her one-shotting enemies, it's not reliable. In spite of this, training Deirdre and give her some experience to increase her level is a good idea, as it improves her son [[Seliph]]'s base stats.
However, Deirdre has her flaws. She has very low availability, being only playable for the end of Chapter&nbsp;1, and the entirety of [[Crisis in Agustria|Chapter&nbsp;2]] before getting kidnapped after Sigurd seizes the first castle in [[Eldigan, the Lionheart|Chapter&nbsp;3]], where she cannot leave Castle Agusti. Her [[HP]] and [[defense]] are very low, so she takes a large amount of damage and must be protected. While Renewal helps her survive, it only activates at the start of player phase, and while her [[speed]] is decent, Aura has a massive 20&nbsp;[[weight (weapon)|weight]], severely hindering her dodging abilities without Miracle. There are no other light tomes available at all throughout the entire first generation, meaning that Deirdre cannot use a lighter tome as an alternative, remaining stuck with Aura as her only usable weapon. With her poor [[movement]] of 5, she also has issues in reaching enemies to fight, and her growths are very lopsided, with very high magic and resistance but low [[Skill (stat)|skill]], and her other growths are even worse. If she loses all her HP, she will not [[Death|die]], but she will be captured until the end of the chapter, and because she is not available for long, there are not many chances of training her outside of the [[arena]], where she can have trouble in going very far. She also cannot be promoted, and in Chapter&nbsp;3, she can only fight in the arena, where she may need some rings to do well, but they are expensive and she has difficulty in getting the [[gold]] to buy them outside of Sigurd's or without help from [[Dew]]. In the last chapter she's available, Deirdre can use the [[Physic]] staff obtained at the end of the previous chapter to support Sigurd and the rest of the army as they start heading towards the castle or after they lose in the arena, and as it grants 35 EXP per use, it can help her in leveling up, but the healing range is limited to 10 spaces of distance from the starting castle, and while she can heal, weapons are very limited in quantity in the first generation, with only two [[Heal]] staves that [[Ethlyn]] and [[Lachesis]] start with and [[Edain]]'s [[Mend]] staff, and giving her one of these when she joins or in Chapter&nbsp;2 means that one of the healers won't be able to heal other units and get the experience they need from using said staves, and Edain also needs Physic, since Ethlyn's staff rank never increases and Lachesis will only gain a higher one on promotion. Even then, after the first castle in the chapter is seized, she will be unavailable for the rest of the first generation, Ethlyn, [[Quan]] and [[Finn]] will leave after the chapter ends, and [[Claud]] will join with [[Fortify]], which she can't use because she's missing at this point, which limits her ability to support allies. She has one personal skill, [[Nihil]], which is not useful to her because there are no situations where it helps her, and she suffers from a lack of skills that help her in combat, especially [[Follow-Up]], and while the critical bonus from Sigurd can help her one-shotting enemies, it is not reliable.
 
Deirdre cannot pass down her inventory to her daughter, [[Julia]], as Julia is not technically a [[inheritance|child unit]], meaning that anything in Deirdre's inventory must be re-acquired if they were not transferred to someone else to be inherited, and Aura can't be inherited by anyone, since it requires an A rank in light magic, while [[Ced]], a pre-promoted Sage, only has a B rank in it. In spite of this, training Deirdre and giving her some experience to increase her level and stats is a good idea, as it improves her son [[Seliph]]'s base stats if she manages to get an increase in strength, skill, speed, luck and defense with some lucky level-ups, and her aforementioned Nihil skill, while not useful for her, is useful for Seliph to protect him from the effects of critical hits, skills, and (once he promotes to a [[Knight Lord]]) effective damage from [[Horseslayer]]s.

Deirdre is a quiet and reserved woman, but cares deeply for the people around her. While speaking in relatively more formal language than others, she speaks her mind and pursues her heart. This is shown in Deirdre's dialogue with Sigurd after their first meeting, in which she offers to help fight Sandima. She also confesses her love to him despite knowing the blood that resides within her, showing her more romantic side. This is also displayed in [[Crisis in Agustria|Chapter 2]] where Deirdre accompanies Sigurd's army on the battlefield, in which she affirms to Ethlyn that she is confident that, as long as she is alongside Sigurd, their happiness will see them through the war. During [[Eldigan, the Lionheart|Chapter 3]], Deirdre hears of Sigurd's victory at Madino Castle and wishes to rush to him at once, showcasing how her love also makes her a bit reckless.
