Ricken (Japanese: リヒト Licht) is a young Ylissean mage and a member of The Shepherds.

Fire Emblem Awakening

Role

Ricken first appears at the end of Chapter 4. Upon hearing about Maribelle's capture, he packs his things and goes to join Chrom. However, Chrom tells Ricken to remain behind and protect the garrison. Ricken instead sneaks out of the castle and joins with the group at the border between Ylisse and Plegia, saving Maribelle from her captor with Elwind, and joins the Shepherds for the chapter's battle and the rest of the game.

Personality and character

Ricken is very sensitive about his height, always complaining when people treat him as a kid. As such, he does his best to train to get taller, even trying to make potions that improve his height[1], but also focuses on improving his skills, such as cooking and medicine. Ricken comes from a respected noble home, but it and his family name has lately fallen into serious disrepair, and he joins the Shepherds in order to help bring back respect[2][3]. Ricken is also fond of animals and stories.
