''Permanent death'' in the ''[[Fire Emblem]]'' series is unique. While other RPG games may allow the player to revive or otherwise heal fallen party members, ''Fire Emblem'' is unique that any time a unit's HP becomes zero, they can no longer fight in-game regardless external factors, and the game continues. While some characters that are either essential to the plot (such as [[L'Arachel]] and [[Innes]] in ''The Sacred Stones'') or otherwise important to the main character (such as [[Marcus]] and [[Oswin]] in ''Blazing Sword'') may stay alive in-game, they still can no longer be used in-battle. Playable units are not the only characters that permanent death affects; in addition, NPCs, such as {{FE6}}'s [[Lilina]], and potentially recruitable enemies, such as [[Ilyana]] and [[Taruneo]] in ''Path of Radiance'', are affected by permanent death, and having any of these units killed prevents the player from adding them to his or her army. | |||
While the game normally continues if a character is felled in battle, the death of any [[Lord]]s will cause a Game Over instead of allowing the game to continue. In addition, the deaths of some NPCs can cause a game over, such as that of [[Merlinus]] in ''Blazing Sword''. In a particularly unusual case, if the player manages to defeat [[Fargus]] in the chapter [[The Port of Badon]], the player will be treated to a game over, as Fargus is the only character in-game that can help the lords continue in their quest. Character death also can impede the player's progress; killing [[Douglas]] in ''Fuuin no Tsurugi'', for instance, does not allow the player to access an extra chapter to obtain the [[Aureola]], and thus, prevent the player from accessing the game's true ending. | While the game normally continues if a character is felled in battle, the death of any [[Lord]]s will cause a Game Over instead of allowing the game to continue.
