In [[Eirika]]'s route, Ewan first appears in Chapter 10, in which he finds [[Tethys]] and asks her to let him adventure with her. He suggests to Eirika that they take a pass through the mountains to [[Rausten]], going through the village of [[Caer Pelyn]], where his teacher [[Saleh]] resides. In the next chapter, he guides the army through the mountains. When monsters appear in an abandoned fortress, Tethys tells him to stay behind and not fight. He obeys, but in Chapter 12, he begins to fight once someone visits a small house he is trapped in. Afterwards, he continues to fight with Eirika for the rest of the game.

====Beginning====
====Beginning====
In both [[Eirika]] and [[Ephraim]]'s routes, Ewan first becomes playable in Chapter 12. In both cases, his base level and base stats are horrendous. Since he is a trainee unit, he starts at level 1 in a trainee class, which is essentially a downgraded version of regular unpromoted classes. Ewan will have plenty of catching up to do.

Ewan dies in one round to nearly every enemy he will face, sometimes even to one attack. Therefore, he should avoid counterattacks and enemy phase combat at all costs. Fortunately for him, he uses magic, giving him 1-2 range. This flexibility lets him attack many enemies without facing counterattacks, which helps with training him. As a magical attacker, he also targets the enemy's resistance stat, which tends to be lower than their defense.

====Promotion situation and choices====
====Promotion situation and choices====
Ewan has a broad selection of promoted classes, thanks to him being a trainee unit. Upon reaching level 10 as a [[Pupil]], he can become a [[Mage]] or a [[Shaman]]. From Mage, he can become a [[Sage]] or a [[Mage Knight]], and from Shaman, he can become a [[Druid]] or a [[Summoner]].

If the player has completed both Eirika and Ephraim's routes before, there is a third option. He can also [[Class change/Game Boy Advance games#Super trainees|promote to a Pupil again, and then to a Pupil once more as his second promotion]]. Many players call this promotion path 'Super Pupil.' While Super Pupil can use all magic types, it is primarily a novelty. It is overshadowed by Ewan's other promoted class options, as it does not improve Ewan's constitution, cannot use staves, and magic triangle control is rarely useful.

Ewan is the brother of [[Tethys]], and he is linked to [[Gerik]]'s mercenary company, which Tethys is a part of. Therefore, he also knows [[Marisa]], a member of the mercenary company.
