“ | I sang, people cheered and applauded, and when I walked off stage, I'd find the same thing every night. A mountain of presents and marriage proposals. But none of those people knew me. All they knew was the singer they saw on stage. | ” | — Dorothea to Sylvain |
---|
Dorothea Arnault (pronounced /ˌdɔɹə'θiə/[key]; Japanese: ドロテア=アールノルト Dorothea Arnold) is a playable character appearing in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. She is a student at the Officers Academy and a member of the Black Eagles.
Biography
Dorothea was born as the daughter of a maid to a nobleman in the Adrestian Empire. At a very young age her mother was forced out of the house where she worked and died of illness shortly thereafter. Dorothea was then left as an orphan to beg on the streets where she would sometimes sing alone.[2] One time, she was overheard by some people, who invited her to become a songstress in the Mittelfrank Opera. In the Mittelfrank Opera, she met Manuela and started to look up to her. During her time in the Opera, she was kidnapped, assaulted and almost assassinated, but she learned to defend herself. In Imperial Year 1180, she left the Opera, entered the Officers Academy, and joined the Black Eagles house, learning and fighting alongside them.
After the timeskip, if Dorothea is a member of Byleth's class, she returns to Garreg Mach Monastery on the day of the millennium festival and accompanies them throughout the war. Should Dorothea not be recruited on the Azure Moon and Verdant Wind routes, she rejoins the Adrestian Empire post-timeskip and defends Enbarr from Byleth's chosen faction, either on the city's streets alongside Hubert and a non-recruited Petra on Azure Moon, or in the imperial palace in Verdant Wind along with Petra and Edelgard. She can be circumvented or slain at the player's discretion.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Role

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Dorothea is one of the Black Eagles' magic-oriented characters. Her growths in Magic, Dexterity, Speed, and Resistance are decent, but she has poor Strength and Defense growths. Dorothea's spell selection elevates her despite her moderate magic growth. The elusive Thoron spell allows Dorothea to attack from three spaces away, mitigating her poor defenses. Dorothea can also use Thoron from four spaces away while turning her other two-range spells into three-range spells with the Caduceus Staff. Dorothea learns Meteor when she reaches A-rank in Reason. Only Dorothea and Hanneman can learn this spell, and only Hilda, Manuela and Constance can learn the comparable Bolting. Hilda's base and growth in Magic are both low, Manuela has a Reason bane, and Constance requires DLC. Meteor's high might combined with Fiendish Blow and Battalion bonuses can one shot enemies or weaken tough foes from afar. Meteor also allows Dorothea to give support and gambit bonuses to allies from up to ten spaces away depending on her skills and equipment. Finally, Dorothea has access to Physic, allowing her to support allies remotely. Even though all magic classes are restricted to four movement until the Master-class tier, Dorothea's ranged magic options help her stay relevant in both combat and support roles.
Dorothea's budding talent is in Faith, one of her initial banes. Most players will be discouraged by Dorothea's Faith bane, but in just twelve instruction sessions, she will gain a Faith boon, allowing her to gain White Magic Avo +20 and reach Physic faster. White Magic Avo +20 gives Dorothea an extra 20 Avoid when she has a faith spell equipped. While this sounds good on paper, her only offensive Faith spell is Nosferatu, which is weak and heavy, potentially negating the skill's benefits. Also, as a magic-enabled class with four movement, Dorothea will struggle to reach the front lines to use her limited ability to dodgetank. Physic is a fantastic support option, though, so unlocking the budding talent in Faith is still recommended - just to reach C-rank for Physic more quickly.
Dorothea's excellent spell pool and low strength and defense growths make her unsuitable for melee combat. Her best class promotion line is Monk to Mage, then Warlock or Bishop. Her best master class is subjective. Gremory, for instance, offers double Thoron, Meteor, and Physic spell uses. One can also make Dorothea a Dancer. Dorothea gains six movement as a dancer, allowing her to support her allies in an additional way while retaining her offense as a mage. One can also try to promote Dorothea to a Dark Knight or (with DLC) a Valkyrie or Dark Flier for increased mobility and Canto, but due to her banes in Riding and Flying, this will take a long time.
Recruiting for Other Routes
Dorothea will be trained in Swords and Reason magic when recruited in Part 1. Not only does Dorothea have amazing ranged options in Thoron and Meteor, but she also has a good magic growth. She lacks the raw power of Annette and Lysithea but makes up for it with her ranged offensive and supportive magic, making her a valuable addition to any team. In addition to this, Dorothea is easy to recruit as she requires Byleth to have skill in Authority and Charm, both of which can be developed easily via tea times with students and Church members.
Fire Emblem Heroes
Role
There are two different variations of Dorothea available to Heroes, both of which are tied to her storyline appearance in Three Houses Part I, and neither of which are her normal variation. A summer-themed variation of Dorothea was made available between the period of July 8, 2020 through August 8, 2020 as part of the summoning event surrounding the launch of the Overseas Memories update. A desert-themed variation of Dorothea was made available between the period of January 18, 2021 through February 18, 2021 as part of the summoning event surrounding the launch of the Dark Desert Rituals update; this variation is a Harmonized Hero, carrying a dual-credit with Genealogy of the Holy War as a result of being paired up with Lene. Dorothea is the first character to have been made available in two special variations without a normal variation available anywhere in the game files.

Endings
Dorothea, Mystical Songstress (single ending)
Dorothea returned to the Mittelfrank Opera as soon as the war was over. Thanks to her talent, the company enjoyed a resurgence in popularity that lasted well beyond the end of her own career. Once she gave up her position as a songstress, she settled down to a private life of peace and quiet. It is said that she was very happily married.
Byleth, Wandering Flame/Ruler of Dawn & Dorothea, Devoted Heart (Silver Snow, Verdant Wind)
After ascending the throne as the first leader of the United Kingdom of Fódlan, Byleth announced <his/her> marriage to Dorothea. The former songstress resolved to stay out of the public eye, keeping to herself and her family, but as Byleth worked tirelessly to restore Fódlan, she did offer advice from time to time. It is said that her experience growing up as a commoner provided a useful perspective. Many years later, her 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.
Byleth, Guardian of Order & Dorothea, Devoted Heart (Azure Moon)
After taking on the role of archbishop of the Church of Seiros, Byleth announced <his/her> marriage to Dorothea. The former songstress resolved to stay out of the public eye, keeping to herself and her family, but as the archbishop worked tirelessly to restore Fódlan and the church, she did privately offer advice from time to time. It is said that her experience growing up as a commoner provided a useful perspective. Many years later, her 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.
Byleth, Wings of the Hegemon & Dorothea, Devoted Heart (Crimson Flower)
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/her> 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.
Edelgard, Flame Emperor & Dorothea, Mystical Songstress
As Edelgard's reign as the Adrestian emperor began, Enbarr was restored, and with it, a certain opera house. Soon the Mittelfrank Opera Company put together a war drama depicting the journey and sacrifice of the emperor and her companions, and the starring role went to none other than Dorothea. Edelgard initially forbade the company from staging it, but was eventually persuaded by Dorothea's passionate performance to rescind that decree. It is said that the emperor always set aside time to enjoy the opera thereafter.
Hubert, Emperor's Confidant & Dorothea, Mystical Songstress
After the war, the Mittelfrank Opera Company made a resurgence, in no small part thanks to the patronage of Emperor Edelgard's confidant, Hubert. Dorothea made a comeback as a songstress within the troupe, which traveled all over Fódlan, putting a large share of its profits toward relief efforts. The opera company was warmly welcomed by the war-weary people as a source of solace, and became even more famous than before. It was not discovered until many years later that the troupe's tour had been a covert operation, coordinated by Hubert and Dorothea to gather intelligence for the Empire.
Ferdinand, Noblest of Nobles & Dorothea, Devoted Heart (Silver Snow, Azure Moon, Verdant Wind)
After officially becoming the new Duke Aegir, Ferdinand set about reforming his territory. Thanks to the wisdom of his wife, Dorothea, Ferdinand's policies were of massive benefit to the commonfolk and brought about a swift recovery. In recognition of this achievement, he was called upon to help govern to Fódlan at large. Though the work of reforming the entire nation kept him very busy, he always managed to find time for Dorothea. It is said that their children filled their loving household with beautiful music ever after.
Ferdinand, Noblest of Nobles & Dorothea, Devoted Heart (Crimson Flower)
After officially becoming the new Duke Aegir, Ferdinand set about reforming his territory. Thanks to the wisdom of his wife, Dorothea, Ferdinand's policies were of massive benefit to the commonfolk and brought about a swift recovery. In recognition of this achievement, he was called upon by Emperor Edelgard to introduce these reforms to the Empire at large as the new prime minister. Though the work kept him very busy, he always managed to find time for Dorothea. It is said that their children filled their loving household with beautiful music ever after.
Linhardt, Ragamuffin Sage & Dorothea, Devoted Heart
After the war, Linhardt decided to inherit his title. He spent several years studying his territory, learning to manage its affairs, and when he was finally ready to become the new Count Hevring, he announced his marriage to Dorothea. Somehow, despite all this activity, Linhardt actually managed to keep up with his Crest studies. Though his results were dubious at times, his new wife helped him alter them so that they would be of use to people. Their relationship was unlike anything the nobility had ever witnessed. When faced with this accusation, Linhardt and Dorothea could only laugh and note that the past was of no significance to them.
Caspar, Roaming Instigator & Dorothea, Devoted Heart (Silver Snow, Azure Moon, Verdant Wind)
After the war, Caspar set out alone on a journey of self-discovery. He traveled to every corner of Fódlan, and even ventured abroad now and again. Though his antics found him no end of exciting adventures, he was always drawn back to Dorothea, who had returned to the Mittelfrank Opera Company in Enbarr after the war. The two spent more and more time together over the years, and when Dorothea's efforts brought the opera house to the peak of its resurgence, she relinquished her position as songstress and disappeared from the stage. It is rumored that the pair spent the rest of their lives together.
Caspar, Hotheaded General & Dorothea, Devoted Heart (Crimson Flower)
In recognition of his achievements during the war, Caspar was given the title of Minister of Military Affairs in the new Adrestian Empire. Though his command developed a reputation for occasional recklessness, he proved an able leader, guiding his troops to overcome countless obstacles. In his personal life, he began to spend a great deal of time with Dorothea, who had returned to the Mittelfrank Opera Company after the war. When her efforts brought the opera house to the peak of its resurgence, it is said that Dorothea relinquished her position as songstress in order to retire with Caspar. They are rumored to have spent the rest of their lives together.
Dorothea, Devoted Heart & Petra, Queen of Brigid
Petra returned to her homeland of Brigid, and inherited the throne from her grandfather. As ruler, she declared independence from Fódlan, and renegotiated Brigid's diplomatic ties to that nation on more equal terms. At every step along the way, she was accompanied by Dorothea, who had left Fódlan behind to support her. Dorothea used the connections she had made in her time at the opera to her benefit, and even worked reluctantly with the Fódlan nobility for Petra's sake. The people of Brigid were skeptical of her at first, but warmed up to her over time. It is said that she became the person whom Petra loved the most.
Dorothea, Mystical Songstress & Felix, Meandering Sword (Silver Snow, Verdant Wind, Crimson Flower)
Even after the war's end, skirmishes continued to break out across Fódlan. Learning that there were still places where he could fight, Felix abandoned his noble title and chose to make a living with his sword. He traveled the land, and some years later found himself in Enbarr. There he encountered Dorothea, who had just resumed her career as a songstress in the opera. From that time on, no matter how far Felix traveled, he always found himself drawn back to that opera house. It is said that, when Dorothea saw his face in the crowd, she sang only for him.
Dorothea, Devoted Heart & Felix, The Shield's Successor (Azure Moon)
After the war, Felix inherited the title of Duke Fraldarius from his late father, Rodrigue. He married Dorothea, and the two began a happy life together. After they had finished restoring Fraldarius territory, Felix traveled across Fódlan as the king's right hand. Dorothea traveled with him always, and even threw herself into battle alongside him every so often. Tales of their bravery endured for generations, thanks in no small part to the operas that Dorothea wrote and composed herself.
Dorothea, Devoted Heart & Sylvain, Sincerest of Knights
After more than 10 proposals, Dorothea finally relented and agreed to marry Sylvain. Together they inherited Gautier territory. With the support of his wife's counsel, the new Margrave Gautier was able to improve relations with the Sreng people, and thereby convince the local nobles that Relics and Crests were no longer an absolute requirement for survival. Due to their efforts, they went down in history as an extraordinary lord and lady. It is said that what finally convinced Dorothea to marry Sylvain was his promise that they would grow old happily together, and that he was true to his word.
Dorothea, Divine Songstress & Lorenz, Noble of the Red Rose
As the new head of House Gloucester, Lorenz first worked to restore his own territory, and then expanded his vision to include reforms for all Fódlan. At the height of his storied political career, he announced his marriage to Dorothea, who had returned to prominence with the Mittelfrank Opera Company. The elaborate wedding was the most talked-about social event of the season, and the fashions on display from the savvy nobleman and the stylish songstress set the trends with young people across Fódlan for a decade.
Dorothea, Devoted Heart & Hanneman, Father of Crestology
Though Fódlan had changed, Hanneman's goal remained unwavering: to determine the workings of the Crests, and to do away with the inequality caused by them. To that end, his research resulted in magical tools which could be used even without the aid of Crests. This proved to be yet another worthwhile discovery by the Father of Crestology. Hanneman also became a father in more literal sense, by raising many children with his wife, Dorothea. Their marriage was not publicly known, however, as the songstress elected to keep it secret for the sake of both of their careers.
Dorothea, Mystical Songstress & Manuela, Divine Songstress
The Mittelfrank Opera Company was on the brink of collapse until two of its star songstresses, Manuela and Dorothea, returned to the stage and brought the troupe new life and prominence. They toured all around Fódlan, sometimes even visiting troops on the front lines, soothing hearts with their beautiful songs wherever they went, and donating their profits to the relief and rebuilding effort. When the damage from the war had finally healed, the pair once again retreated from the stage, this time retiring to a private life together. It is said that their relationship was full of light and love.
Dorothea, Devoted Heart & Yuri, Underground Lord
A new opera company was born of the postwar rebuilding period. This troupe, headed up by a former songstress, was comprised of hand-picked talent from all walks of life. Though it began humbly, over the years it grew to rival even the Mittelfrank Opera Company in its greatness. The most popular production in its repertoire was a tale of a disillusioned songstress making a comeback with the help of her ambitious lover. Through that story, the names of Yuri and Dorothea live on to this very day.

[...] Well, I don't remember much of my early years. My father was never there, and my mother was driven out of the noble house where she worked. Before long, she fell ill... I was always alone, and I lived in the alleys of the Imperial capital, just trying to survive from one day to the next." — Dorothea, in her and Hanneman's B support, Fire Emblem: Three Houses
