Fire Emblem Fates

Role

Rinkah is playable in two of Fates's campaigns, Birthright and Revelation. Prior to this, she is briefly playable in the shared beginning Chapters 4 and 5, but if the Birthright campaign is not chosen in Chapter 6, then she leaves the party. She is recruited again later in Revelation, where she will have the same stats she had at the conclusion of Chapter 5 before the route split.

Rinkah appears as an enemy in Chapter 2 from the game's shared beginning, and again in Chapter 11 of the Conquest campaign.
