Saber (Japanese: セーバー Savor) is a mercenary appearing in Fire Emblem Gaiden and its remake Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. He appears at Novis and joins Celica on her quest to the Mila Temple and, later, Rigel.

Fire Emblem Gaiden

Role

Celica, in her travels to the Mila Temple, found a drunk mercenary in a bar at Novis port. The mercenary, Saber, was upset that she interrupted his drinking, though he was hired by Celica regardless, seeming to have had a bit of a drunken mood swing.

Saber travels with Celica on the rest of her journey and until the conclusion of Gaiden.
