Franz is a [[Cavalier]] that joins in [[Escape!|Chapter 1]] of ''The Sacred Stones'' where he will contribute greatly thanks to his class giving him access to 7 move and two weapon types, letting him avoid a weapon triangle disadvantage. He comes with solid bases for his early join time, along with high growths in every area besides defense and resistance. Due to the low quality of enemies in the ''The Sacred Stones'' Franz will not have trouble reaching level 10 by the time the player gets the first [[Knight Crest]] and is able to promote early. He is by far the best user of the first Knight Crest as [[Gilliam]], [[Kyle]], and [[Forde]] will have trouble reaching level 10 as soon as Franz.

Franz's only real problem is the fact that he lacks the flier or staff utility of other units available as early as him. While this does not make him bad, it does mean that he has a harder time standing out from the rest of the pack, especially when [[Seth]] is able to do everything Franz can but with much better base performance. However, his weaknesses are ultimately negligible and far outweighed by his advantages. Franz is still the second best combat unit in the early game behind Seth and he will easily pull his weight through the game if used regularly.

Franz also has a poor base luck stat, leaving him susceptible to low-percent crits from most enemies. However, his weaknesses are ultimately negligible and far outweighed by his advantages.

Franz's best promotion is without a doubt [[Paladin]], as it gives him 8 movement, a valuable trait with the relatively limited amount of units with similarly high movement. The Great Knight does give better speed and strength and access to axes, but has only 6 movement, which removes Franz's greatest asset.
