Eldigan first appears as a NPC in [[Lady of the Forest|Chapter 1]], leading an army of eight Cross Knights. He and his army appear one turn after Genoa Castle has been seized, in the upper limits of the map near Nordion, in order to fight [[Elliot]]'s army and protect Evans Castle while Sigurd fights deeper in Verdane. Once Elliot and his army has been routed, Eldigan's forces will retreat back to Nordion.

Once Elliot and his army has been routed, Eldigan's forces will retreat back to Nordion.


Eldigan later re-appears as a boss in [[Eldigan, the Lionheart|Chapter 3]], emerging as part of the retinue defending Sylvale Castle after Madino has been seized. He and his army of fourteen Cross Knights will actively attack Sigurd's army and attempt to capture Agusti Castle, but Eldigan himself can be convinced to retreat by having [[Lachesis]] talk to him. This will give Lachesis an [[Lands Sword]] and prompt the cutscene where Eldigan returns to Sylvale and is executed as a traitor.

In both cases, Eldigan's appearances are the first time in the game that a character wields a crusader [[regalia]] weapon in gameplay, soon followed by [[Quan]] obtaining [[Gáe Bolg]] in Chapter 3 after Eldigan's death.

===Role===
Eldigan is available as a reward for completing the [[Downloadable content in Fire Emblem Awakening|downloadable content]] chapter ''[[Infinite Regalia]]''. While playable solely as a DLC reward, Eldigan has more in common with normal [[SpotPass]] units: his portrait reuses old art from ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' and he appears in the ''Rogues & Redeemers'' DLC series, as an enemy in ''[[Rogues & Redeemers 1]]'', ''[[Rogues & Redeemers 2|2]]'', and ''[[Rogues & Redeemers 3|3]]'', without requiring ''Infinite Regalia'' to be installed to display his portrait.

Eldigan's portrait also has a background indicating a SpotPass origin, and unlike other characters obtainable as DLC rewards, Eldigan does not use a generic placeholder portrait when the game does not have access to portaits of DLC characters. This, as well as the aformentioned non-requirement of ''Infinite Regalia'' to play ''Rogues & Redeemers'', may indicate that Eldigan may have originally been planned to be playable as a SpotPass character, through either the ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' first-generation or "Others" character sets, but was ultimately left off the SpotPass roster and had these assets become [[Unused content in Fire Emblem Awakening|unused data]] within the vanilla ''Awakening'' game, later put into use as a playable reward in ''Infinite Regalia'' and as an enemy unit in the ''Rogues & Redeemers'' maps.

|full_name=Eldigan: Lionheart
|name=Eldigan Lionheart
|blurb1=Here's Eldigan, the suave and dashing ruler of Nordion! He's thick as thieves with Sigurd, the Prince of Chalphy, and Quan, the Prince of Leonster!
|blurb2=Eldigan's trademark weapon is Mystletainn! This is the same sword once wielded by his ancestor, one of the 12 crusaders. You know, I heard it drinks its victims' blood… Yikes!
|blurb3=Eldigan is a king, but he's also a knight, and the person who cares for the most is his sister, Lachesis. Sounds a lot like another famous brother-sister duo, am I right? (Me and Alfonse. I'm talking about me and Alfonse.)
|blurb4=Eldigan might seem a bit too cool for school at times, but he truly cares for his sister and his friends. In other words, he's a lot more warm-hearted than you might think…hot-blooded, even!
|Related_name1=Lachesis
|Related_blurb1=Lady of House Nordion. Adores her older brother, Eldigan, to the point that other men pale in comparison.
|Related_name2=Sigurd
|Related_blurb2=Heir to Chalphy, descendant of the crusader Baldr, and Seliph's father. Close friends with Eldigan. He's courageous and has a strong sense of justice.
|Related_name3=Quan
|Related_blurb3=Prince of Leonster and inheritor of the lance Gáe Bolg. Husband of Ethlyn, the younger sister of his close friend Sigurd. He's close friends with Eldigan.

|full_name=Eldigan: Strutting Lion
|name=Eldigan Strutting Lion
|blurb1=Eldigan, ruler of Nordion, has come to the ball! I see that even amid the festivities, he's as down to earth as ever. I guess even a spectacle like this is a common sight for a king!
|blurb2=Eldigan is seen as one of the greatest knights in Jugdral, and he's also well-known as the wielder of Mystletainn, the Demon Sword. That said, it looks like he brought a golden staff to the ball. This is no place for a Demon Sword, after all!
|blurb3=Eldigan is known as the Lionheart, and his new outfit lives up to the name! The mane-like trim and golden embellishments really do give him a dignified, regal air.
|blurb4=He's certainly making his presence felt—no one has been able to take their eyes off him, including his sister Lachesis! Maybe I should ask him for a dance?
|Related_name1=Lachesis
|Related_blurb1=Younger sister of Eldigan, ruler of Nordion. Sheds her armor for a gorgeous dress and a night of dancing. Adores her older brother, Eldigan, to the point that other men pale in comparison.
|Related_name2=Sigurd
|Related_blurb2=Heir to Chalphy, descendant of the crusader Baldr, and Seliph's father. He's courageous and has a strong sense of justice. A close friend of Eldigan's.
|Related_name3=Quan
|Related_blurb3=Prince of Leonster. Gallantly taking part in the dance festival as part of his royal duty. A close friend of Eldigan's.
