“ | I guess some folks just need to live by that kind of tight framework. Me railing against that wasn’t going to make anyone happy, you know? So I figure I’ll find my own place where I can live in a way that does. | ” | — Jesse |

Jesse (Japanese: ジェシー Jesey) is a mercenary appearing in Fire Emblem Gaiden and Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.
Fire Emblem Gaiden

Jesse is the third and last mercenary that can be recruited by Celica's party. He is imprisoned in the Desert Fortress after trying to help Est escape, following the latter's kidnapping by Grieth. After Celica's army arrives at the Desert Fortress and defeats Wolff, Jesse agrees to join the party.

Personality and character
As with many characters in Gaiden, Jesse has minimal characterization. He appears to be always willing to rescue someone in danger, even at the cost of his own safety, as shown by his being imprisoned following his attempt to save Est from Grieth.
Shadows of Valentia expands on his personality, showing him as a superficial individual who enjoys life without restrictions, shown when he left his stringent household when he was able.[1] He is also shown to be very flirtatious, often smooth talking women in Celica's army, and often Celica herself. He desires to establish a country of mercenaries, suggesting he is a big dreamer.[2]
