Arran lives in a village near the Altean castle near another village which has bad blood with Arran's village. When Marth's army arrives to retake Altea, he has to choose between visiting Arran's village and recruiting him, or visiting the other village and recruiting the hero Samson. If Arran is chosen, he serves as a soldier in Marth's army for the rest of the War of Shadows.
During the time between Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem, Arran contracts a disease that severely hampers his combat abilities and will eventually kill him. Despite this, he continues to serve Marth as one of his knights. One day, Marth is given an imperial edict by Hardin of Archanea to deploy his troops to Grust to quash a rebellion led by General Lorenz. Arran is among the knights Marth chooses to accompany him, and he continues to serve Marth throughout the War of Heroes.
Arran's name, paired with the name of Samson's, who the player must choose between in FE1/11, is a possible pun on major Nintendo character Samus Aran.
