Appearance(s)

Guess I'd rather write a story about an epic quest than be on one myself. Though I imagine being left out would feel even worse...
— Genny

Genny (Japanese: ジェニー Jenny) is a cleric and a follower of Mila appearing in Fire Emblem Gaiden. She is a friend of Celica.

Fire Emblem Gaiden

Role

Genny is the first healing unit, a cleric, to join Celica's group.

  • In Gaiden, promotion gains consist on giving the character as many points as necessary -the "x" value shown in the table- to reach the promoted class' base stats. If the character's stats are higher than their promoted class' base stats, they will not receive any bonus; however, if all stats are higher, then they will receive +1 to HP.

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia

Role

Genny, like in Gaiden has lived in the priory for most of her life and is familiar with Celica. She was left at the priory some years ago by her mother. She is an optional recruit, and Celica can opt to not bring her along. Either way, her story role is minimal past her recruitment.

Personality and character

In the original Gaiden, Genny had little characterization. Having only two lines of dialogue, when recruited she states she is happy to travel with Celica and heal the group's injuries.

Her personality was expanded a fair bit in the remake. She is a soft spoken girl, and was initially quite frightened of traveling across Valentia with Celica.[1] Genny seems to have a fondness of men older than her, she states that this is due to a feeling of being taken care of that an older man gives her.[2]

Genny has a dislike of her mother for abandoning her at the priory, it is possible this abandonment is what has led to her desire to feel taken care of. She is uncomfortable and nervous around people that remind her of her mother.[3] She tries to not let this affect her friendships with women that look similar to her mother, though she has some difficulty with speaking around them.[4]

One of Genny's hobbies is writing stories.[5] In particular, she has plans to write a story about a princess who finds her father.[6]

Ending

Gaiden

Though no one could have possibly dreamed of it happening, it's said that she fell in love with one of her companions. Who in the world could that person be? Her only answer is a smile.

Echoes: Shadows of Valentia

After falling in a most unlikely love, Genny wed a man no one would ever expect. As for whom she married, exactly, no one can say—whenever her friends asked, she replied only with a smile and an enigmatic laugh.
