Roy was born in the [[Timeline of Elibe|year 985]], five years after his father Eliwood defeated [[Nergal]] at the Dragon's Gate; his mother is not canonically identified, but in the gameplay of ''Fire Emblem'' she can potentially be [[Lyn]], [[Ninian]] or [[Fiora]]. During his upbringing, he was [[wikipedia:Wet nurse|wet-nursed]] by the Pheraen knight [[Rebecca]], and her son [[Wolt]] is considered his [[wikipedia:Sibling#Milk sibling|milk brother]]. At the age of ten, he and Eliwood traveled to [[Ostia]] to meet with [[Hector]], Eliwood's old friend, and Roy was there introduced to Hector's daughter [[Lilina]], and the two became close friends.

===The Disturbance of Bern===
Line 64: Line 63:
When all the legendary weapons of Elibe came together in the Bern throne room after Zephiel's defeat, Zephiel's former sword, [[Eckesachs]], reacted to their presence in Roy's army and emitted a light beam pointing to the [[Dragon Sanctuary]], the last bastion of Bern's army and the hiding place of the Demon Dragon, [[Idunn]]. Roy led a final charge on the Dragon Sanctuary, first defeating the final Wyvern General, [[Brunnya]], then invading its interior and learning the true history of [[the Scouring]] from [[Jahn]], the sole surviving true [[Manakete]]. Between Jahn's tale and the concerns of [[Fae]], Roy realized he could not kill Idunn; instead, Hartmut's sword in hand, he resolved to restore Idunn's lost heart.

Between Jahn's tale and the concerns of [[Fae]], Roy realized he could not kill Idunn; instead, Hartmut's sword in hand, he resolved to restore Idunn's lost heart.


With the war over at last, Roy attended the coronation of Guinivere as the new Queen of Bern, then returned to Pherae to rebuild the war-ravaged region. If he reaches an A support with [[Shanna]], [[Sue]], [[Larum]], [[Cecilia]], or [[Sophia]], he married her and the couple rules together over Pherae. If he reaches an A support with Lilina, the two married and united Lycia into a single kingdom, with Roy becoming the consort King of Lycia.
With the war over at last, Roy attended the coronation of Guinivere as the new Queen of Bern, then returned to Pherae to rebuild the war-ravaged region, and eventually succeds his father as the new Marquess Pherae. However, if Lilina is killed in battle, Pherae remains the greatest power of Lycia and therefore, Roy becomes the new marquess and leader of the entire Lycian League.{{citation needed}}<!--something that demonstrates Ostia does not recover, and maybe something showing that Pherae remains dominant-->
 
If he reaches an A support with [[Shanna]], [[Sue]], [[Larum]], [[Cecilia]], or [[Sophia]] while any of them survived, he married her and the couple rules together over Pherae as the Marquess and Marchioness. If he reaches an A support with [[Lilina]] and the true ending is reached, an alternate version of the crowning ceremony scene will play and have the two discuss in a room as to what the two will do now that the war has ended, as well as making comments regarding [[Guinivere]] herself. And some time after that, the two marry, with Roy becoming the consort King of Lycia.
