“ | When someone from another realm dies, someone here is saved. On these terms, I forged a contract with Hel. To save our world, I will decimate yours! | ” | — Líf, to Alfonse |
---|
Líf (Japanese: リーヴ Líf) is the secondary antagonist of Book III of Fire Emblem Heroes. He is an alternate timeline version of Alfonse and a general of the army of the dead.
Fire Emblem Heroes
Role
This section has been marked as a stub. Please help improve the page by adding information.
Líf was the founder and first king of Askr, later dying of unknown causes.
An alternate Askr and Embla banded together to defeat Hel by creating a "forbidden heart," at the cost of the citizens' lives with each pulse. Stricken by grief, that Askr's Alfonse was made into one of Hel's generals shortly after her escape. He took the name "Líf", and assisted Hel in her conquest of the living world.
During the events of Book 3, Líf clashes with the Order of Heroes as they journey through Hel's realm and later on, in an alternate version of Askr. At one point in the alternate Askr, Líf attempts to kill Alfonse, but hesitates when Sharena intervenes and retreats. Using information he learned from the alternate Askr's library, Alfonse deduces that "Líf" is an older version of himself.

As a playable character
There are three different variations of Líf available to Heroes, both of which are tied to his storyline appearance in Heroes. The normal variation of Líf had information as a playable unit added in a dedicated Mythic Hero update, making him the game's eighth Mythic Hero; he was made available for summoning as part of a summoning event released on January 30, 2020.
