Byleth Eisner (Japanese: ベレト or ベレス Beleth) is the player-customized character, similar to an avatar, and protagonist of Fire Emblem: Three Houses. During the course of the game they become a teacher at the Officers Academy.

Biography

Byleth was born of Jeralt and a nun of the Church of Seiros in Imperial Year 1159, in critical condition and not breathing. Rhea took the Crest Stone of Flames from Byleth's mother (who failed to achieve the progenitor god's conscience, and was also in critical condition) and placed it within the infant Byleth's heart, both to save the infant Byleth as well as to try again to reawaken the goddess Sothis; this resulted in the death of Byleth's mother. However, this had the consequence of Byleth having extremely little emotion until the goddess started to reawaken around the start of the game.

Byleth is a member of a mercenary troop led by their father Jeralt, and spent their early childhood wandering the continent of Fódlan with him. After an "unexpected incident" reveals an unknown power hidden within, they travel to the Officers Academy at the Garreg Mach Monastery and are offered a position as a teacher. They also begin to have visions of a strange girl named Sothis who decides to guide them.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Role

Byleth is the player-controlled character of Three Houses. While Byleth is one of the main characters of the game, they are a silent protagonist, unlike Robin and Corrin before them. As Byleth interacts with characters, the player is given options on how Byleth will respond to dialogue, which may change the reactions of the character they are speaking to. Each response may increase support points for a correct response depending on the partner's interests, or even decrease the partner's support points.

Fire Emblem Heroes

Role

There are two different variations of Byleth available to Heroes, one male, one female, both based on their appearances in Three Houses Part I. Female Byleth became available for summoning by players on July 22, 2018 as part of the summoning event surrounding the Cohort of the Dead update. Male Byleth has been announced for release on or after July 26, 2019 to coincide with the release of Fire Emblem: Three Houses; players who purchase Three Houses on or before June 29, 2020 will be able to receive a free copy of the normal variation of male Byleth. Male Byleth will first be made available for regular summoning during the Mythic Hero Sothis banner, although he himself is not the Mythic Hero in question.

Endings

Silver Snow

Byleth, Wandering Flame & Bernadetta, Eternal Loner
After ascending to the throne as the first leader of the United Kingdom of Fódlan, Byleth announced his marriage to Bernadetta. Many were concerned that the new leader of House Varley would do little more than hide, but she in fact followed the new king wherever he went and provided him with constant counsel. She never did overcome her shyness, however, and it is said that the aspiring advisers who frightened her were quickly turned away. Because the ones she liked performed well in their service to the people, Bernadetta was widely believed to have a discerning eye.

Byleth, Wandering Flame & Seteth, Heir of Purpose
After ascending the throne as the first queen of the United Kingdom of Fódlan, Byleth appointed Seteth as her prime minister. As they set about the grand task of restoring Fódlan, the prime minister's strictness combined with the queen's magnanimity won the people over easily. Their personalities complemented one another perfectly in dealings with obstinate lords. When their long work was done, they finally announced their marriage, to the shock and delight of their subjects. The people considered themselves truly blessed to be governed by such a union.

Byleth, Wandering Flame and Rhea (male Byleth)
After finally saving both Fódlan and Rhea from crisis, Byleth ascended the throne as the first leader of the United Kingdom of Fódlan. From his temporary residence at Garreg Mach Monastery, he endeavored to restore and develop Fódlan. Having narrowly escaped death, Rhea took time to recover her strength before returning to her role as archbishop. Upon her return, she applied herself to rehabilitating the church and helping those who had suffered because of the war. Thereafter, the two worked closely to forge new policies and achieve progress for Fódlan. The pair's collective work came to be thought of as nothing short of miraculous.

Crimson Flower

Byleth, Wings of the Hegemon & Dorothea, Devoted Heart
Almost immediately after the modest wedding ceremony between Byleth and Dorothea was over, the battle against those who slither in the dark began in earnest. Dorothea chose not to take the field of battle with a weapon but rather to tend the household in her spouse's absence and provide emotional support to his effort to bring lasting peace to Fódlan. Many years after the war had ended, Dorothea's diary was uncovered, revealing the full extent of the happy life the couple shared. The love poems that they wrote to one another were published as a collection.

Azure Moon

Byleth, Guardian of Order & Sylvain, Sincerest of Knights
After becoming the new archbishop of the Church of Seiros, Byleth announced her marriage to Sylvain, heir to House Gautier. Sylvain was a valued ally who assisted his wife in her new role, both publicly and privately. He achieved a great deal, including fostering relations with Faerghus and helping to institute sweeping organizational changes within the church. Though known as a philanderer in his youth, Sylvain happily settled down after marriage. By the time he inherited the title of Margrave Gautier, he was a gentle and devoted husband. It is said that those who knew him in his youth wondered what sort of spell the archbishop had cast on him.

Byleth, Guardian of Order & Annette, Bloomed Overachiever
After becoming the new archbishop of the Church of Seiros, Byleth announced his marriage to Annette. His wife actively contributed to his endeavors, and it is said that her wisdom was heavily relied upon during Fόdlan's restoration and development. Despite her lofty position, she was known to occasionally step in as a guest speaker at the Royal Academy of Sorcery, where she educated many renowned sages. Though her talents were widely respected, it is said that she was a bit accident-prone. Charming tales endure of her husband saving her from countless kitchen explosions, but it is unknown whether these are fact or purely fiction.

Byleth, Guardian of Order & Shamir, Distant Archer
Byleth announced his marriage to Shamir shortly after being named archbishop of the Church of Seiros. While the archbishop focused on the rebuilding effort, Shamir became his bodyguard and confidant. She even acted as a deputy captain of the Knights of Seiros, and in that capacity, became quite popular. As a couple, their daily lives were busy indeed, and both were famously taciturn, but it is said that they cherished their quiet time together—especially once they began to have children.

Verdant Wind

Byleth, Ruler of Dawn & Bernadetta, Eternal Loner
After ascending to the throne as the first leader of the United Kingdom of Fόdlan, Byleth announced his marriage to Bernadetta. Many were concerned that the new leader of House Varley would do little more than hide, but she in fact followed the new king wherever he went and provided him with constant counsel. She never did overcome her shyness, however, and it is said that aspiring advisers to frightened her were quickly turned away. Because the ones she liked performed well in their service to the people, Bernadetta was widely believed to have a discerning eye.

Byleth, Ruler of Dawn & Lysithea, Scholar of Misfortune
Byleth announced his engagement to Lysithea shortly after becoming leader of the United Kingdom of Fódlan. Before they were officially wed, she returned home, helped her father to restore Ordelia territory, and offered the land up to be governed directly by the new kingdom. Once the affairs of House Ordelia were in order, Lysithea finally married and became queen. Even without her Crests, she proved more than capable in the role, applying her great insight and intelligence toward a better Fódlan. When the rebuilding effort was complete, the couple and their children enjoyed long and peaceful lives.

Byleth, Ruler of Dawn & Shamir, Distant Archer
Byleth announced his marriage to Shamir shortly after becoming leader of the United Kingdom of Fódlan. While the king focused on the rebuilding effort, Shamir became his bodyguard and confidant. She even acted as captain of the royal guard, and became known as a watchful and trustworthy queen. As a couple, their daily lives were busy indeed, and both were famously taciturn, but it is said that they cherished their quiet time together—especially once they began to have children.

Other appearances

Fire Emblem Cipher

Byleth is currently featured on one card in Fire Emblem Cipher, depicting the default male. Unlike other characters who can be either male or female depending on the player's choice, such as Corrin or Morgan, Byleth's cards do not include （男） or （女） indicators next to their name, because Byleth's name is slightly different depending on gender. However, since the English version of Fire Emblem: Three Houses does not distinguish Byleth's two forms by name, (Male) and (Female) are included here for the convenience of readers.

Trivia

• In Heroes, the male version of Byleth is the first hero to be introduced on a Legendary or Mythic banner without actually being a Legendary or Mythic Hero.
• Chris Niosi was the original English voice actor for male Byleth before being replaced by Zach Aguilar in both Three Houses and Heroes via updates as a result of Niosi's violations of non-disclosure agreements. His voice clips from Heroes as portrayed by Niosi are still available online here.
