''' | '''Chulainn''' (Japanese: {{hl|ホリン|Horin}} ''Holyn'') was an [[Isaach]]ian nobleman and the son of the lord of Isaach's House Sophara, better known as a mercenary and gladiator travelling across [[Jugdral]]. He allied with [[Sigurd]]'s army during the war with [[Agustria]] and beyond, until his presumed death in the [[Battle of Belhalla]]. | ||
==Biography== | |||
During the [[Agustria]]n war with [[Sigurd]]'s army, Chulainn was fighting in the Agustrian gladiatorial scene, having risen to the top rank of gladiators in the region. Upon being defeated in a match by a member of Sigurd's army, he joined Sigurd's army himself, finding inspiration in their pursuit of a cause other than money. | |||

===Analysis=== | |||
{{analysis}} | |||
====As a unit==== | |||
Chulainn is a reasonably fast and deadly sword fighter much in the same vein as [[Ayra]]. He has access to [[Follow-Up]] through the [[Sword Fighter]] class, and with his high speed he can usually attack twice. Often, he can even kill enemies with high defense when [[Luna]] activates, but he may struggle to do so if it does not. He is also very adept at clearing the [[Arena#Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War|arena]], where his higher [[avoid]] and Luna will give him the edge. This is fortunate for him, as like most foot units in ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', Chulainn seriously struggles to stay close to the fight while mounted units ride ahead. As such, he loses out on gold and experience from map combat, but he can supplement himself with the arena. When playing for [[rankings]], Chulainn is potentially good enough at clearing the arena that he can get all the desired [[level up]]s just from there by making sure he has the [[Paragon Ring]] whenever competing. | |||
====As a father==== | |||
As a father, Chulainn is somewhat limited. He has Follow-Up as a class skill, so he will not pass it down to his children; similarly, Luna can only be inherited by Sword Fighters and [[Thief|Thieves]]. Chulainn will pass down Minor Od [[Holy Blood]], which boosts HP and [[skill (stat)|skill]], and raises his children's potential sword ranks by one level. When paired with Ayra, his Minor Od holy blood will stack with hers to give [[Larcei]] and [[Scáthach]] Major Od blood, drastically increasing their skill—and as such, their chances to activate Luna or [[Astra]]—and HP; additionally, Chulainn can pass down his swords to Scáthach. Besides Ayra, he can be a good match for [[Brigid]], as he will pass down Luna to Patty and increase her base sword level to B, allowing her to wield the [[Brave Sword]]; while not generally seen as a combat unit, improvements to Patty's fighting ability can be very helpful if playing for [[rankings]]. [[Febail]] appreciates the skill boost from Minor Od blood (and also receives the highest HP growth in the game at 175%) but is otherwise mostly unaffected by this pairing. The only other child who can inherit swords from Chulainn is [[Diarmuid]], [[Lachesis]]'s son, but neither he nor [[Nanna]] can inherit Luna, and this pairing will leave both children without [[Follow-Up]]. | |||
==Personality== | |||
Chulainn considered the pursuit of money his primary motivation for his travels and work as a gladiator, but upon his encounter with Sigurd's army he came to consider it a hollow and meaningless endeavor compared to Sigurd's cause and the morale of his soldiers.<ref>{{Cite|You've got some serious spirit in your attack.
