Etzel

“ | And you think you can end it, just like that? From anyone else's lips that would sound absurdly naive. But I can tell you are sincere. Tell me, Prince, have you any need for an extra...spell slinger? I’ve no taste for war, but I do have a fierce hunger for ending it. | ” | — Etzel to Marth |

Etzel (Japanese: エッツェル Etzel) is a sorcerer appearing in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem. He is one of the several new characters introduced in the remakes and does not appear in the original Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light or Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem. He joins Marth's Archanean League after being swayed by the prince's desire to end the war.
Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon
Role
Etzel is captured by Dactyl, the leader of a Grustian platoon stationed at Helena Castle. He strips him of his possessions - an Elfire tome and a ring belonging to his deceased wife Ursula, who was killed during the initial betrayal of Altea by Gra. Dactyl agrees to return the ring to Etzel if he joins Dactyl and helps kill the incoming Prince Marth. Should Etzel survive the battle, he reclaims his ring from Dactyl and joins Marth with the intent of helping him end the War of Shadows.
