“ | I am nothing more than a merciless killer. A demon whose only pleasure is found within death’s shadow. Such a creature should not be allowed near you, dear sister. | ” | — Jeritza to Mercedes |
---|
Jeritza von Hrym (pronounced /jəˈɹitsə vɒn hɹɪm/[key]; Japanese: イエリッツァ Jeritza) is a character appearing in Fire Emblem: Three Houses who was made playable in the Version 1.1.0 update. He is the fencing instructor at the Officers Academy, and is secretly the infamous Death Knight (Japanese: 死神騎士 Death God Knight). His true identity is Emile von Bartels (pronounced /ɪ'mil/[key]; Japanese: エミール Emile), the half-brother of Mercedes von Martritz.
Biography
Jeritza was born Emile von Bartels, heir to House Bartels of Adrestia. His mother was a commoner who married his father for financial security for her daughter Mercedes, but his father was only interested in her Crest and banished the two as soon as Emile was born. When Emile was eight years old, his mother and sister absconded to Faerghus; Emile remained behind, fearing that his father would hunt them down and kill both of them if they fled with his true-born heir. Eventually, Emile's father tracked the two down and decided that since Emile's mother was past the age of bearing children, he would marry Mercedes to have more children with the Crest of Lamine. Emile snapped and massacred House Bartels, and because of this incident developed a homicidal split personality known as the Death Knight. In the aftermath, Princess Edelgard von Hresvelg discovered him, arranged for him to be adopted into the Hrym family under the name Jeritza, and took him into her service in order to make use of his skills for her plans to overthrow the Church of Seiros. Eventually, with the recommendation of Lord Arundel, Jeritza took a post as a fencing instructor at the Officer's Academy at Garreg Mach Monastery.
Jeritza spends Part I aiding Edelgard in her Flame Emperor identity. Jeritza can be seen around the Monastery prior to Chapter 6. He is first seen as the Death Knight accompanying a raid on the Holy Mausoleum, but does not engage the students sent to stop them unless attacked first. Jeritza is responsible for kidnapping Flayn and stabbing Manuela during Chapter 6. He develops a fixation on the students' teacher Byleth and directly challenges them after their investigation leads them to the underground chamber where Flayn is held, but is ordered to retreat by the Flame Emperor. The Monastery faculty correctly conclude that Jeritza is the Death Knight, and he is not seen around the Monastery for the rest of Part I.
The Death Knight is next seen reinforcing Solon in the battle in Remire Village, but is again forced to retreat by Byleth. After the Flame Emperor is unmasked as Edelgard, the Death Knight fights in the Battle of Garreg Mach on Adrestia's side, potentially allying with Byleth to do so. Afterwards, the Death Knight takes up a post as an Adrestian general.
If Byleth is a member of the Black Eagles and sides with Adrestia over the Church, Jeritza joins their side and fights alongside Byleth for the rest of the Crimson Flower route.
In any of the other three routes, if both Mercedes and Caspar are recruited, a paralogue can be played in which Mercedes deduces that his true identity is Emile, and he gives her her family Relic, the Rafail Gem, before threatening to kill Mercedes the next time they meet and departing. If Caspar defeats the Death Knight, the Death Knight gives him his Scythe of Sariel as a reward.
In Azure Moon, afterwards, regardless of whether this paralogue was completed, the Death Knight is assigned to defend Fort Merceus from the invading Faerghus army. He fails in this task and is killed in battle, dying in his half-sister's arms.
In Silver Snow and Verdant Wind, the Death Knight survives this encounter and instead warns the Resistance Army/Leicester army to leave the fortress, lest they be killed by incoming Agarthan missiles. He later defends Enbarr along with Hubert and is killed in this encounter.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Role
Jeritza spends most of his time as an NPC at Garreg Mach Monastery during the first quarter of the game. Eventually, he vanishes, and a secret passageway is found in his quarters where the recently abducted Flayn is discovered. He was made playable as free DLC in wave 3, exclusively on the Crimson Flower route. From Chapters 3 to 5 and Crimson Flower Chapter 13 onward in version 1.1.0 onward, he can tutor the player in swords, lances, brawling, and riding.

Personality and character
It is strongly suggested in his supports that Jeritza suffers from some form of dissociative identity disorder, with distinct mannerisms, reactions to other characters, and general temperament and personality between his “Jeritza” and “Death Knight” personas.
Jeritza dislikes mingling with others, and will actively reject any attempt to make small talk. He spends most of his time at the Monastery alone and near the training grounds. Jeritza is a man of few words, but he does care deeply about Mercedes. He desperately struggles to maintain control of his Death Knight personality, to the point where he is actually willing to desert the Empire to keep her safe when he nearly turns his blade on her during a conversation. Jeritza is also very loyal to Edelgard for rescuing him after the massacre of House Bartels and giving him a purpose in life.
As the Death Knight, he is an extremely intimidating figure. He deeply enjoys battle to the point of not caring whether his own life is placed in jeopardy, and develops a particular fixation on Byleth as the story progresses. He also tends to chafe at taking orders, and on several occasions disobeys his superiors to act on his own impulses. However, he is not entirely devoid of compassion or honor; he sincerely apologizes to Manuela for stabbing her during the events of Chapter 6 on the Black Eagles route, he gives Caspar the Scythe of Sariel if he defeats him in battle as a sign of respect, and he gives his half-sister Mercedes their family Hero's Relic (although he says that he would not hesitate to kill her in their next encounter).

Endings
Jeritza, Bloodstained Demon
After the war for Fódlan, Jeritza threw himself fully into the struggle against those who slither in the dark. Visage masked by the likeness of death itself, he laid waste to his enemies with a scythe that terrified friend and foe alike. When it was all over, he stole away in secret and vanished without a trace. His whereabouts thereafter have been the subject of much conjecture.
Byleth, Wings of the Hegemon & Jeritza, Bloodstained Demon
After the war for Fodlan, Byleth and Jeritza threw themselves fully into Emperor Edelgard's struggle against those who slither in the dark. Though the battle proved vicious, none could stand against the combined might of shining sword and reaper's scythe, and the pair become venerated by history as heroes of Adrestia. Once those who slither in the dark were forever vanquished, the two heroes stole away in secret and vanished without a trace. Their whereabouts thereafter have been the subject of much conjecture among historians.
Mercedes, Benevolent Soul & Jeritza, Bloodstained Demon
Mercedes left home and opened a small orphanage in the Faerghus region with her mother. After many years of kind service raising children who had lost their families, she received a letter bearing familiar handwriting. Its author, a prisoner in Enbarr, expressed his sincerest well-wishes to Mercedes and her family. Still more time passed until, one day, the man who wrote the letter paid her a visit. With joyful tears in her eyes, Mercedes smiled, took Emile by the hand, and at last welcomed him home.
