'''Canas''' (pronounced {{IPA|ˈkɑnɑs}}<ref>Canas in ''Fire Emblem Heroes''</ref>; Japanese: {{hl|カナス|Kanasu}} ''Canas'') is a [[shaman]] from {{FE7}}. As the only dark magic user available in the game aside from [[Athos]], Canas travels with the group in order to expand his knowledge of the Dread Isle, and subsequently, dragons. Referencing how ''Blazing Blade'' is supposed to be a prequel to {{FE6}}, Canas is a son of [[Niime]] and the father of [[Hugh]], two characters appearing in ''The Binding Blade''.

Canas first appears in [[The Port of Badon|Chapter 16x/17x: The Port of Badon]]. Shortly after [[Eliwood]] and his allies engage with [[Fargus]] and members of his pirate brigade, Canas appears in order to offer his skills to the lords, due to wanting to visit the [[Dread Isle]]; similar to the party, he is also unable to find passage to the island.

{{analysis}}
With the exception of [[Athos]], Canas is the player's only potential dark magic user in all of the game, and if the player wants to use dark magic, Canas is their only meaningful option to do so due to Athos' extremely poor availability. Of the magic units in the game, Canas is relatively well-rounded, with solid growths in HP, magic, and resistance, as well as among the highest defense growths in the game for a magic user (25%, second to only [[Pent]]'s 30%), in addition to solid starting stats in Magic, Skill, and Resistance. As a result of this defence growth, as well as high resistance (45%) and HP (70%) growths, Canas is one of the more durable magic characters the player can get; in addition, the [[Nosferatu]] tome gives Canas the ability to regain lost HP whenever he inflicts damage, thus aiding his durability. Canas's primary stumbling block, however, is his poor speed. At only 35%, it is among the lowest speed growths in the game, and this is only exacerbated by the relatively heavy weight of most dark magic tomes, along with an average 7 constitution likely causing speed reductions of some capacity, even with [[Flux]]; dark magic's ultimate tome in the game, [[Gespenst]], is also notoriously heavy, with a weight of 20, giving Canas an entire 12 point deduction from his speed and skill stats if the player chooses to wield the tome. Even early on, he only has a base attack speed of 7, and he cannot follow up on any enemy with 4 or more speed, which are most of the enemies in his debut chapter. As such, it is generally recommended that the player uses [[Speedwing]]s on Canas where possible, or [[Body Ring]]s assuming you do not mind him being harder to rescue.
With the exception of [[Athos]], Canas is the only dark magic user in the game, giving him exclusive access to all dark tomes obtained. Unfortunately, outside of the standard Flux tome, most dark tomes are situational. [[Eclipse (tome)|Eclipse]] has too low of a hit rate to be viable, [[Fenrir]] and [[Gespenst]] are incredibly heavy, and while [[Nosferatu]] can allow him to survive longer on enemy phase it is often too heavy. [[Luna (tome)|Luna]], the only other notable dark tome, is very strong against late-game bosses, as it ignores resistance. However, generic enemies, even in late-game chapters, often have less resistance than Flux's base might, and Luna's higher accuracy and crit rate are offset by its higher weight. Additionally, Athos is a better Luna user than Canas, as Canas's magic will normally be 24, while Athos will always have 30 magic when he joins, 1 more than even a magic-blessed Canas.
 
An aspect of Canas's usefulness is due to the fact that he is the only potential wielder of [[Luna (tome)|Luna]] in the game, except for Athos. Owing to a good magic growth (45%) and a high base magic of 10, Canas has potential to reach or approach his 28 magic cap, and compounded with Luna, allows him to deal a guaranteed 28 damage to all enemies, including [[Nergal]] and the [[Fire Dragon]]; even outside of these two bosses, multiple bosses prior to the two, such as [[Ursula]], [[Sonia]], [[Limstella]], and others can be easily defeated with the tome. Usage against standard enemies is not recommended, however, as they tend to have poor resistance to begin with, and the speed loss can prevent him from following up on many enemies. While it also gives a good boost to his critical hit rate, the boost is not as big as that of a [[Killing Edge]], and is therefore less reliable without supports or [[Thor's Ire]] boosts.


Upon changing class, Canas will be able to use [[Staff|Staves]]. E Staves can be hard to work with at first, but if allowed to blossom to its highest potential, Canas can become extremely versatile, having great combat and the ability to support units by healing from afar, rescuing, warping, and other kinds of special abilities only accessable with high staff ranks. He also gains +3 speed and +1 constitution, making him much more speedy in combat to the point of not losing speed from Flux, making him into a more stable combat unit who is unlikely to rely on critical hits to get far. Overall, his promotion gives him much more to work with and allows him to be a much more flexible and capable unit.
Fortunately, Canas is very capable of just using the basic Flux tome. Canas is well-rounded, with solid growths in HP, magic, and resistance, as well as among the highest defense growths in the game for a magic user (25%, second to only [[Pent]]'s 30%), in addition to solid starting stats in Magic, Skill, and Resistance. As a result of this defense growth, as well as high resistance (45%) and HP (70%) growths, Canas is one of the more durable magic characters the player can get. Canas's primary stumbling block, however, is his mediocre speed. His base is not high enough to double enemies, especially as Flux weighs him down by 1, and his 35% growth is not high enough for him to catch up quickly. Even early on, he only has a base attack speed of 7, and he cannot follow up on any enemy with 4 or more speed, which are most of the enemies in his debut chapter. As such, it is generally recommended to promote him, as he gains +3 speed and +1 constitution, which allows him to reliably double most enemies. Promotion also gives him access to staves, though with a base E rank, it will take him a while to use more advanced staves.

==Personality and character==
==Personality==
Canas is demonstrated to be a young man almost completely absorbed in improving his intellect through constant study; in almost all of his support conversations, characters often approach Canas while he is in the midst of reading a tome of some sort, to the chagrin of some. In his only supports where he isn't immediately seen studying, he instead directly asks questions to [[Renault]] about the truth behind morphs. True to being a scholar, Canas takes his work very seriously, expressing exasperation when Vaida's mount eats one of his books <ref>{{cite|'''Canas''': Hey! That’s a very rare book! And it’s mine!|Vaida and Canas B support|The Blazing Blade}}</ref>, and he also expresses great interest upon meeting the Mage General of [[Etruria]], [[Pent]]<ref>{{cite|'''Canas''': Afternoon, Lord Pent!<br>'''Pent''': Here is the book I borrowed.

Owing to being almost completely absorbed in his studies, it is demonstrated that Canas can also sometimes act absent-minded to his surroundings and to the needs of other people. In his supports with Pent, Canas is found looking around the area for a book he has misplaced, in an minor example <ref>{{cite|'''Canas''': ...Mmm. I wonder where it went? If I dropped it, it should be around here...|Canas and Pent C support|The Blazing Blade}}</ref>. A more telling example, however, is seen in his supports with the wyvern rider [[Vaida]]. In their A support, Canas attempts to give Vaida a book about "wyvern-mounted combat" and proceeds to give an accurate description of how they operate, as well as his desires to see one in real life, all while seemingly failing to notice that Vaida herself is a wyvern rider<ref>{{cite|'''Canas''': Ah, well, excuse me. I thought I would bring a book today that you might find interesting... It is about wyvern-mounted combat...<br>'''Vaida''': Wyverns?<br>'''Canas''': Yes. Do you know of them? They are rather mysterious creatures. According to this book, they are all white and normally appear in lakes... And it says that they cry “Scraw!from time to time. Just once, I sure would like to see a real one...|Vaida and Canas A support|The Blazing Blade}}</ref>, and that her mount Umbriel has actually eaten one of his books right in front of him <ref>{{cite|'''Vaida''': Umbriel! Tasty, tasty! Eat it up!<br>'''Canas''': No, please don’t... Ohh... Ohh... Why does he have to devour it as if it were so...appetizing?|Vaida and Canas B support|The Blazing Blade}}</ref>. Socially, Canas can also prove absent-minded; in supports with [[Nino]], the shaman has to be told by the mage that he must spend more time with his infant son Hugh, owing to the latter's potential loneliness.<ref>{{cite|'''Canas''': Oh, all right. But since I am still on a quest for knowledge, I can't just return home now...<br>'''Nino''': Canas!!<br>'''Canas''': Y-yes?<br>'''Nino''': You shouldn't waste your time wandering when your son is at home waiting for you...He needs you!|Canas and Nino B support|The Blazing Blade}}</ref> In his supports with [[Bartre]], Canas also accidentally insults the fighter when he asks for a book; knowing that Bartre is not as intelligent as himself, Canas amusingly asks the warrior if he is going to eat it. <ref>{{cite|'''Bartre''': Don’t worry about it! It’s no bother for me! In exchange, you can just lend me one of those books!<br>'''Canas''': A-A book?<br>'''Bartre''': Yeah. Maybe... a skinny one.<br>'''Canas''': ......

In ''The Binding Blade'', Niime provides a different characterisation for Canas than seen above; in her support conversations with Hugh, Niime notes that Hugh's penchance for wanting to have a steely exterior is similar to how Canas supposedly acted, though the shaman shows no such mannerisms in ''The Blazing Blade''. Despite this, she does note that Hugh's inherent kindness does appear to come from his father, which more closely meshes with Canas in the game.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Canas is one of three characters, along with [[Ninian]], [[Hawkeye]], and [[Lyn]], to have two different death quotes. However, whereas the other three have had known criteria for their alternative death quotes, the criteria for changing Canas's death quote was only recently discovered. To get this alternate quote to appear, {{FE7}}{{'}}s playthrough counter must be at eight or above. In the Japanese version, a {{FE6}} save transfer with the game completed to at least [[An Undying Dream|chapter 22]] should also make the quote appear, though this is not possible in international releases.<ref name="death quote"/>
