Roy: Difference between revisions

Roy is the [[lord]] character for ''The Binding Blade'', and in every chapter except the [[Beyond the Darkness|finale]] he is required to [[Objectives|seize the throne]] to clear the chapter. His death is an automatic Game Over.

Roy appears briefly in the extended epilogue of ''Fire Emblem'', which takes place five years before the events of ''The Binding Blade''; here, his first meeting with Lilina is depicted. This epilogue is not available in the European version of the game.  He is also mentioned in Eliwood's A-rank endings with [[Ninian]], [[Lyn]] and [[Fiora]].

Roy returned to the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series in {{SSB4}} as [[smashwiki:Downloadable content|paid downloadable content]], released on June 14th 2015 alongside [[wikipedia:Ryu (Street Fighter)|Ryu]] from the [[wikipedia:Street Fighter|''Street Fighter'' series]] and [[wikibound:Lucas|Lucas]] from ''[[wikibound:Mother 3|Mother 3]]''.  Prior to release, Roy and Ryu were inadvertently leaked when Nintendo uploaded version 1.0.8 of ''for Wii U'' to their eShop servers early and hackers extracted its contents.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.destructoid.com/street-fighter-s-ryu-and-fire-emblem-s-roy-leaked-for-super-smash-bros--293871.phtml|author=Whitaker, J.|title=Street Fighter's Ryu and Fire Emblem's Roy leaked for Super Smash Bros.|site=Destructoid|published=2015-06-13|retrieved=2015-06-13}}</ref> Prior to this, these two were leaked when sound files with their names on them were found in the data of version 1.0.6 of ''for Nintendo 3DS''.<ref>{{Cite web|published=2015-04-16|retrieved=2015-06-13|url=https://twitter.com/CuttingRoomWiki/status/588467223833882627|title=Our crack research team has confirmed the existence of the Ryu sound files in the #Smash4 3DS update.|site=Twitter|author=Cutting Room Floor}}</ref>

 

Roy now sports a revised design which is primarily based on his original ''The Binding Blade'' appearance with elements of his ''Awakening'' DLC design added. Unlike [[Lucina]], his fellow clone of Marth, he has been reworked to distance himself from Marth in both aesthetics and gameplay, which now makes him a "semi-clone". In many of his attacks he now slashes with a reverse grip, altering his range, and some of his moves are completely new and different from Marth, such as his new down aerial attack. Like Marth, his range is now shorter than what he had in ''Melee'', but he compensates for this with drastic increases to his speed, allowing him to act as the close-quarters fighter he was originally intended to be.  He also gains a [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]], [[Critical hit#Super Smash Bros. series|Critical Hit]], which is radically different from Marth and Lucina's version of the move in both style and function, and imitates his critical hit animation with the Binding Blade from his native game.

 

 

 

 

* '''[[smashwiki:Flare Blade|Flare Blade]]''' (Japanese: {{hover|エクスプロージョン|Ekusupurōjon}} ''Explosion''): Roy's [[smashwiki:Neutral special move|standard special move]]. A fire-channeling strike which can be charged for up to five seconds to deal a more powerful blow; if left to charge for too long, it will deal damage to Roy. While it originated in ''Melee'' as a clone of Marth's [[smashwiki:Shield Breaker|Shield Breaker]], Marth had his version of the move changed to a single stabbig lunge from ''Brawl'' onward, which technically makes Flare Blade now entirely unique to Roy.
