Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade
Role
Template:Spoiler At the start of the game, Roy is studying in Ostia under Mage General Cecilia of Etruria. Having been called by his father, Roy goes home to find the castle, with Eliwood and Lilina inside, being held by a group of bandits. With the help of some Pheraean knights, Roy takes the castle and rescues those inside.
Due to Eliwood's bad health, Roy is to lead Pherae's army against Bern, who has been attacking the Lycia Alliance. Following the ancient tradition, the young man departs to the border, where he is to meet up with a small band of mercenaries who will accompany him to Araphen, the meeting place of the Lycian Alliance. However, in the border he also meets a lady of Bern and her vassal, who were captive inside a castle. The lady is none other than Guinevere, princess of Bern and King Zephiel's sister. She had fled her home to try and meet a Lycian noble, so they can find a peaceful solution to this war. Roy agrees to help her and lets them join his army.
However, once they arrive to Araphen, they discover that Bern had already attacked the Alliance, decimating their forces. Roy fights his way inside the castle, only to find a dying Hector. The leader of the Alliance fought valiantly, but not even him could be a match for Bern's secret weapon, the dragons. With his last breaths, Hector names Roy as the next leader of the Alliance and dies.
Next, Roy is forced to fight against other Lycian lords, who had foreseen the collapse of the Alliance and so decided to side with the most powerful side - Bern. After battling in Laus and Thria, Roy and his army arrive to Ostia, only to find a full blown revolution. The leaders of the rebellion have even captured Lady Lilina, the heiress to Ostia's throne, planning to use her as a hostage. Roy, with the help of an Ilian mercenary squad, manages to recapture the castle and rescue Lilina, but not fully quell the rebellious forces, who have received the help of Bern's dragon knights. Yet at the last moment, the Etrurian army comes to the rescue, lead by Cecilia herself.
The help does not come free, though. Roy must now work for Etruria, and his first mission sends him away from Lycia and to the Western Isles, a colony of Etruria. Decided to resolve the conflict as quickly as possible, Roy instead discovers that some corrupt Etrurian nobles have enslaved the islanders. He even finds a creature of lore in the isles - one of the fabled dragons. Roy's honest nature gains him the help of the Resistance movement, a Etrurian nobleman and some mercenaries.
Having cleared the islands, Roy returns to the mainland and to horrible news: a coup d'état in Aquleia, Etruria's capital. The only general who is resisting the rebellious forces, Cecilia, has been cornered and Guinevere is in danger. Roy does not make it in time and Cecilia is defeated, but Guinevere's loyal bodyguard, Milady, comes to the rescue and defects from Bern. Now considered as betrayers to Etruria, Roy pushes forward and conquers Aquleia, managing to avoid a bloodshed in the streets thanks to the Elimine Church's influence.
Gaining the full support of Etruria's king and generals, Roy renames his forces as the "Etrurian Army" to avoid any more conflicts, and sets off to liberate Ilia and Sacae.

Other appearances
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Roy makes an appearance in the second game of fighting crossover series Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee. He appears as a "clone" character of Marth, meaning they share many similar attacks and similar poses. Roy's attacks are most powerful the closer the foe is to Roy, and some of Roy's attacks consist of fire upon contact. However, he is often viewed upon as an inferior version of Marth competitively.
When Melee was being translated for Western audiences, the developers first considered removing Roy and Marth, being unfamiliar characters to American audiences due to no actual other Fire Emblem line games being released in other countries. However the decision was made to keep Roy and Marth, with the inclusion of Japanese voice acting for both regardless if the language chosen is English. Due to this, fans began to show interest for the Fire Emblem series and thus began the series' overseas appearances.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In Brawl, Roy was excluded while Marth made a reappearance, likely due to Roy fading away from the Fire Emblem series at the time. At the same time, Ike, who had recently appeared in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn was included in the game. It is a popular fan joke that Roy was "replaced" by Ike, and that the two have a fierce rivalry. Roy also appears as a sticker.
Through hacking, it has been found that Roy might have originally been planned to appear as part of his programming can be found.
Etymology
The name Roy means "red" in Irish and Caelic. It also has a old French variation ("Roi") which means "King".[1] It also means "regal one".[2] His name might be a reference to him being of royal blood.
