'''Cain''' (Japanese: {{hover|カイン|Kain}} ''Kain'') is a [[cavalier]] in the Fire Emblem series. He is more often than not seen with [[Abel]].
{{Quote|...Sire, I...I cannot bear this! Failing to protect His Majesty...then leaving my brothers to die, slinking away like some coward... This indignity is too much to bear! One day I will repay them in kind. I will avenge the fallen... I swear it!|Cain, to [[Marth]]}}
 
'''Cain''' (Japanese: {{hl|カイン|Kain}} ''Kain'') is an Altean [[cavalier]] in the Fire Emblem series. He was present when [[Gra]] launched its surprise attack on King [[Cornelius]]'s forces and returned to Altea to inform Prince [[Marth]] of his father's death and deliver his dying words. He is friends with fellow cavalier [[Abel]].

Cain is one of the Altean soldiers who fled to Talys alongside Prince [[Marth]] after their country was defeated by Dolhr and Gra. Some years later, Talys is attacked and its princess goes to Marth for help; Cain, following his lord's orders, enters the battlefield with his fellow soldiers. Once they have rescued the king of Talys and Marth starts his campaign against Dolhr, Cain follows Marth for the rest of the war.

===Analysis===
{{analysis}}
Cain joins in Chapter&nbsp;1 with solid stats all around except for his mediocre speed and weapon level. After a couple levels, Cain's high growths everywhere except strength and defense will kick in, allowing him to rapidly outpace Jagen by consistently doubling enemies while being able to use strong weapons. He maintains these high stats for the rest of the game, apart from defense and possibly strength. Cain also has high mobility due to being a cavalier. He is a great candidate for the Paladin's Honor obtained in Chapter&nbsp;12, due to his statistical superiority to the game's other cavaliers.
 
Overall, Cain is a great unit that only needs a couple of levels to start snowballing through the game.

Cain is put in charge of protecting Altea while Marth led the Altean army in subduing the rebellion in Grust. After Marth turns against Archanea and fled to Chaismir Bridge, Cain approached Marth. Relieved that Marth was safe, Cain explained that he had broken through Archanea's forces to reach Marth, and that emperor Hardin was invulnerable to their attacks. He recommended that Marth flee to the north-western fort and escape by ship to the Khadein desert, which Marth reluctantly agreed to. Cain continued to serve in Marth's army for the rest of the war.

=====Book 1=====
|hp=0
Cain performs similarly to his original incarnation in ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light'', but he takes more investment due to requiring more of an attack speed difference for doubling. Ultimately he is still one of the better units in the game due to his great stats when trained.
|str=2
 
|skill=3
=====Book 2=====
|spd=3
Cain is one of the better units in Book 2, joining near promotion level with solid bases for his join time and having excellent mobility due to being a cavalier. Though he starts at a lower level than Sirius, with worse bases, Cain has better growth rates, so will surpass him if trained.

===Analysis===
{{Analysis}}
Cain has perfect availability, being around even in the Prologue of ''Shadow Dragon''. His bases are decent enough for him to be useful early on, and he is capable of staying relevant throughout the game thanks to decent growths. His base class, Cavalier, has access to both swords and lances, making Cain flexible during the early chapters, before reclassing is an option. It also gives him higher movement than most other units the player has access to at that point of the game.
However, Cain's base weapon ranks are D in swords and E in lances, and this is a problem. Having a higher sword rank in this game is not nearly as good as having a higher lance rank, because most enemies past the first few chapters use lances and there are few good effective swords Cain can potentially use. Cain will consistently suffer from weapon triangle disadvantage if he uses his preferred weapon type in swords. It is not easy to fix this problem quickly, either, because the early chapters are flooded with axe users. Abel has a much easier time getting from D to C, because he can use Javelins at base and 50 weapon exp is easier to obtain than 100 weapon exp. The best way to mitigate his problems is to play the first few chapters patiently and cautiously, using Cain with an Iron Lance as the primary melee tank, pulling one enemy at a time, and healing him whenever necessary. This allows him to grind up his lance rank early on with minimal risk, as he doesn't start consistently risking being doubled by enemy Cavaliers until Chapter&nbsp;6. Done this way, he can easily reach D lances and begin catching up to Abel.
Overall, Cain is a solid unit. While his weapon ranks are not very good because of the dominant enemy weapon types, he is helpful in the early game at least and is definitely better than units like Gordin, who lack long-term usefulness and prospects, and if the player is willing to work through his rough start they are rewarded with one of the best combat units in the game. Cain has good enough bases, growths, and flexibility to remain a worthwhile unit throughout the game. Abel and Hardin are definitely a cut above him, but you can always use all three.

===Anime===
[[File:Anime Cain and Abel.png|200px|right|thumb|Cain and Abel as they appear in the anime]]
Cain, alongside Abel, plays a prominent role in the {{FEOVA}} anime adaptation. As in the games, they are loyal Altean Knights and they always team up with each other when it comes to fighting in wars where [[Marth]] fights. Cain is a most energetic person who wishes [[Marth]] and companions to return to [[Altea]] as soon as possible at all costs, despite [[Jagen]]'s doubts of doing so. In the first episode, during the Galder pirates' assault on Talys, Cain rides his horse, helping [[Marth]] to defeat the pirates.
In the second episode, he and Abel disguise themselves to ambush pirates when entering [[Galder]]. Later, in the night, they watch [[Gordin]] and [[Draug]] arguing about Gordin's aiming. Finally, Cain and Abel help Marth getting rid of the [[Soothsire]] archers that were ambushing the Altean Knights in an attempt to help Marth rescue [[Lena]].

|blurb1=Cain is one of the Altean royal knights who accompanied Marth right from the start of his long struggle!
|blurb2=His red armor makes for an eye-catching sight. And if you see him charging into battle atop his trusty steed, you'll see why they call him the Bull!
|blurb3=The nickname describes his personality, too. He's pretty much the opposite of the calm and collected Abel, but at the same time, that's what makes them great partners. They've both worked hard—sometimes competing, sometimes helping each other out—to become the knights they are today.
