Faye is one of the 4 villagers you get in act 1, but she is the only female villager and as such is the only one that has access to female villager classes, those being Pegasus Knight and Cleric. She is the weakest villager along with Kliff and will need two levels to be able to promote. She comes with well balanced growth rates making it hard to pick a specific class for her as she doesn't specialize in any particular area.

Faye makes for an amazing Cleric, as she gets early access to Physic, and later grabs [[Rescue (staff)|Rescue]] and Anew for more utility. Her Rescue spell can be used with [[Silque]]'s [[Warp (staff)|Warp]] for very useful hit-and-run strategies by allowing units to be warped far away to attack a dangerous foe then rescued back into safe terrain. She also supports Silque and will be able to perform healing loops with her due to healing taking away HP in ''Shadows of Valentia''. Her most notable unique spell is Anew, essentially letting her assume a Dancer-esque role, though she learns the skill relatively late in the game. The hefty cost of 24 HP may be steep in certain situations, but the ability to give an ally unit an additional action is very powerful if used cleverly. Cleric Faye does have her weaknesses, she will be hard to train up due to her only offensive spell at base being Nosferatu, a spell that always has 60% hit, making training up Faye unreliable. The player could give her speed from the speed fountain in the Thief Shrine, but speed is a highly contested stat and is arguably better used on other units, most notably Silque as her spell list is better than Faye's and as such is a higher priority target for early-game investment. Faye will learn her best spell in act 3 or 4 and will also get Seraphim, a much better offensive spell. Overall, Cleric is Faye's best class as early-game healing utility and combos able to be performed by her and Silque are strong enough to ignore the tedious process of training her up.

There are two different variations of Faye available to ''Heroes'', both of which are tied to her storyline appearance in ''Echoes: Shadows of Valentia''. The normal variation of Faye is one of the characters added to the game in the [[World of Shadows]] update, and became available for summoning by players on April 14, 2017.   A Valentine's variation of Faye was made available between February 7, 2020 and March 6, 2020 as part of the summoning event surrounding the launch of the [[Lovely Gifts]] update.

Faye has an unhealthy and strong attachment to [[Alm]], and focuses most if not all her time thinking about or trying to do something with him. Faye joins the [[Deliverance]] for one reason; to be near Alm. Unfortunately for her, Alm does not return her feelings, being confused and somewhat concerned by her obsession with him. After the war's conclusion Faye resumes her quiet life in [[Ram]] and marries. She eventually develops habits that worry her family, such as vanishing unexpectedly for days at a time. These odd habits are presumably related to lingering feelings for Alm.

Faye is somewhat suspicious and jealous of [[Celica]], and is pleased about the fight between Alm and Celica at the start of [[War of Deliverance|Act 3]], and uses the opportunity to tell Alm that she knows and understands him better than Celica. Her negative attitude towards Celica has existed since childhood, and is additionally reflected in her bond [[support]] which is one-sided; Celica receives bonuses from Faye, though Faye does not receive bonuses from Celica. However, she does not completely hate Celica, and is even willing to join and fight alongside her if Alm leaves her in Ram Village.

[[Silque]] attempts to make friends with Faye, as they are two of the few girls in Alm's group, but Faye brushes her off, desiring only to talk about Alm. Silque later offers to talk about Alm, but she still refuses, citing the lack of Alm's immediate presence. For a time, Silque gives up on trying to interact with Faye. Faye eventually relents after realizing how lonely she is in the group and tells Silque that she hadn't realized how lonely she had been until Silque had stopped talking to her.

Faye is currently featured on seven cards in {{TCGCipher}}.

* Faye, along with [[Alm]], [[Lukas]], and [[Clair]], was playable in {{FEH}} before the official release of ''Echoes: Shadows of Valentia'' in any region.

* Despite being unable to access the [[Archer]] class in ''Shadows of Valentia'', Faye is depicted wielding bows in ''Heroes''. The developers have stated that Faye uses a bow in ''Heroes'' only due to the ''Heroes'' developers wanting to introduce another colorless type unit for the next summoning event.<ref>{{Cite web|'''Q:''' For the smartphone app Fire Emblem Heroes (from now on, FEH), Faye appeared as an archer.<br>'''Nakanishi:''' Yes she did.

* Faye is the only character to receive a statistical penalty from a support relationship. In this case, her avoid is penalized by her support with Alm.
