Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem

Book 2

Role

Prior to the events of the game, Samto was a pitfighter from Knorda. Ogma rescued Samto and his fellow pitfighters and allowed them to escape while he got caught. Despite being tortured, Ogma never told his captors of Samto and the others' whereabouts.[1] Eventually, he was hired by Lang, who believed he was Navarre. Either Caeda, who quickly found out he wasn't Navarre, or Ogma, whom Samto wanted to repay him for saving him, recruited Samto to Marth's army. Samto continued to serve Marth for the duration of the War of Heroes.

Personality and character

In a stark contrast with Navarre, Samto is a easy-going, social individual. However, while ultimately with a heart of gold, he is a flawed individual, being cowardly and somewhat overtly flirtatious, sometimes to the point of unintentionally upsetting others, as shown in his supports with Kris.

However, Samto is not without his virtues. As shown with his interactions with Ogma, he is shown to be incredibly loyal, and intent on paying back those who do him good. In addition, despite stealing his identity for profit, Samto is shown to look up to Navarre, to the extent that if Navarre is to die, he trains himself to be his successor in carrying the title of Scarlet Sword.

    "Navarre": Woah, I don't believe it... This killing edge is, like, so deadly...
    Ogma: Do we have to fight? Alright. I guessed that we would have to duel eventually.
    Samto: Ah... Oh, snap! Woah, dude! I'm just faking it! ...Faking! It's me... Samto. Have you totally forgotten, Mister Ogma?
    Ogma: Samto!? The pit-fighter from Knorda, Samto?
    Samto: Yeah, that was me. Thanks for saving me back then. When everybody tried to escape, you got yourself caught, to hide our escape...
    Ogma: .....
    Samto: I heard from the others that you were taken to the coliseum to be whipped. Even then, you didn't say anything about our whereabouts. In the end, the young princess of Talys, who was passing by, protected you even when she was in tears, and rescued you. So, that is why, for Talys... No... For the princess, you wielded your sword again...
