Lyndis (Japanese: リンディス Lindis), more commonly known as Lyn (Japanese: リン Lin), is one of the Lorca tribe of Sacae, the sole survivor of a massacre of the tribe by the bandits of Taliver. She is the daughter of Hassar, the Lorca chieftain, and Madelyn, the daughter of Lord Hausen of Caelin, and she was named for her late grandmother, Hausen's wife; both of her parents perished in the Taliver assault. Some months after the demise of her tribe, she was embroiled in an inheritance dispute spearheaded by her granduncle Lundgren after learning of her Caelin heritage, and a year afterward joined Eliwood and Hector in their investigations into the Black Fang and the activities of Nergal.
Lyn is one of the three lord characters of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade, along with Eliwood and Hector; unlike her co-stars, she was created specifically for Fire Emblem, as was the territory of Caelin, and as such her ultimate fate is not even hinted at in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, the chronological successor game.
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade
Role
Lyn's tale
Months after the death of her parents and the rest of her tribe, living alone in some corner of Sacae, Lyn found a tactician on the ground. She asked to travel with him so she could seek to avenge her dead parents. In Bulgar, she met Sain and Kent, knights of Caelin who were tasked with finding and informing her of her true heritage: that she is the granddaughter of Hausen, Caelin's marquess. From there, her journey changed to travelling to Caelin to to meet her grandfather. Early on, they stopped at a Sacaen shrine and acquire the Mani Katti, a sacred sword that only Lyn can use.
As her journey progressed, it arose that Lundgren, Hausen's younger brother, sought to end her life to ensure his succession to the rule of Caelin by dispatching mercenaries and bandits after her. All the same, Lyn met many companions that joined her in her journey, including Eliwood, the son of the marquess of Pherae, who assisted her from behind the scenes late in her journey. Ultimately, she reached Castle Caelin and slew Lundgren in battle. She was then taken to meet her grandfather, almost dead from the extensive poisoning by Lundgren, who was relieved to at least meet her before his death; she convinced him that he still has much living to do, and he quickly recovered. Still, due to his illness, Lyn took on many of his duties.
Eliwood/Hector's tale
One year later, with Caelin still largely under her care, the army of Laus came to Caelin while fleeing Laus itself and attacked the castle. On Hausen's orders, she fled the castle with Sain, Kent, Florina and Wil, leaving him trapped within under the Laus occupation. She dispatched Florina to quickly fly away to find help while the rest of the group stayed put in the dense, movement-hindering forests; Florina found that Eliwood and Hector's group were approaching, and so the two groups eventually united and worked together to free Caelin, with Lyn meeting Eliwood again. After the suppression of the Bern occupation, they found Hausen in the back rooms of the castle, injured by knife-wound from Ephidel but still alive, and first learned of the involvement of the Black Fang in Laus's insurrection. After ensuring that Caelin and her grandfather would be looked after, Lyn set out to accompany Eliwood and Hector for the remainder of their quest; traveling through Bern and to Valor. Along the way, she frequently provided advice and ideas to Eliwood and Hector, acting as a voice of restraint to Hector's brash ways.

Personality and character
Lyn is a friendly, determined character who tries hard to reach her goals. She is quite positive and believes that she can achieve her goals. She has pride in her Sacae heritage, and is not willing to tolerate when that is insulted. As a lady of the Sacae plains, she never lies. She is strong and often slightly offended when anyone underestimates her because of her gender. Additionally, since she was brought up outside of the palaces of Lycia, she knows little of noble manners and customs. This does not mean she is savage, though, and Lyn is very friendly and polite to those around her. She has a strong sense of justice and is very persistent.
Lyn is the daughter of Hassar, the chieftain of the Lorca tribe, and Madelyn, the daughter of Lord Hausen of Caelin. Because she was raised in the Lorca tribe, she does not know of her mother's origins, nor her own noble blood.
As a child, she learned the ways of the plains and grew up happily with her parents. To most she was known as Lyn, but her real name is Lyndis, which her parents called her when they were alone. She learned the ways of the sword from her father during this time. In addition, sometime during her life on the plains, she met Florina, a pegasus knight in-training, who had fallen from her pegasus after being chased by bees. After Lyn helped her, they became good friends.
A few months before the events of her story in the game, Taliver bandits massacred the tribe, leaving Lyn as the only survivor. Afterwards, the game's story begins.

“ | Lyn: Hey, listen! There's something I wanted to ask you. Migal: Begging for your life so soon, wench? Lyn: Are you... Taliver bandits? Migal: Taliver? Those greedy monsters? We're nothing like them!! Those fiends will even kill women and children! We're from Ganelon, and we know a little something of honor. We don't harm women, for one thing. Heh heh heh. After all, why kill what you can sell? Lyn: If you're not Taliver, then there's no reason for you to die here today. If you would like to tuck your tails and flee, do so now. Migal: You... You... No more courtesies! You're going to learn to watch your tongue!!! |

Trivia
