'''Travant''' (Japanese: {{ | '''Travant''' (Japanese: {{hl|トラバント|Torabanto}} ''Trabant'') was the king of [[Thracia]] during the era of the [[Grannvale]] Empire's rise, and a [[Holy Blood|full-blooded]] descendant of the Crusader [[Dáinn]] and inheritor of [[Gungnir]]. A prominent figure in the strife facing the Thracian Peninsula, he played a key role in the downfall of the [[Munster District]] and was responsible for the deaths of [[Quan]] and [[Ethlyn]] of [[Leonster]] in the [[Aed Massacre]], but was subsequently cowed into submission to the Grannvale occupation of the District led by [[Bloom]]. During [[Seliph]]'s revolution against Grannvale in Grann 777, Travant led Thracia in opposition to Seliph's invasion of the Peninsula, seeking to reunify the Thracian Peninsula as one nation. | ||

Partway through the battle, while the Thracian army and Travant waited to observe, the Connacht army under General [[Raydrik]] turned on Leonster at the Great River of Thracia, slaying King [[Calf]], obliterating its army and ensuring the fall of the Munster District to Thracia. Travant's hold on the peninsula's north did not last long, as the newly-christened [[Grannvale]] Empire responded to a plea for reinforcements from [[Ulster]], soundly defeating Thracia's army and forcing it to retreat.<ref>{{cite web|quote=However, anticipating an attack, the Kingdom of Ulster had requested reinforcements from House Friege of the Grannvale Empire, and after a long time they arrived to the Thracian peninsula. However, terror came with them; namely, a group of mercenaries linked to the Loptrians. The Thracian army had the momentum, but had to retreat in the face of House Friege's prized Mage Knight squad's and the mercenary squad's offensive. Noticing he was at a terrible disadvantage, King Travant reluctantly withdrew from the Munster District. House Friege stationed itself at the north of the district, effectively turning it into a territory of the Grannvale Empire.|url=https://serenesforest.net/general/designers-notes/thracia-776/lensters-fall/lensters-fall/|title="Leonster's Fall" from the ''Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 Illustrated Works''|site=translated by Serenes Forest|retrieved=November 21, 2013}}</ref> The Munster District came under the rule of the [[Friege]] family, was renamed the North Kingdom of Thracia, and Duke [[Bloom]] of Friege was instated as its king. Although Thracia retained its independence, Travant was forced into alliance with Grannvale, albeit a reluctant alliance on his part. | ||
In Grann 776, Travant and Altena were guided by the Thracian knight [[Merlock]] to the valley in which [[Hannibal]]'s mansion was situated, in order to observe the approach of an alleged bandit mob assaulting the locals (in reality, [[Leif]]'s group seeking refuge under Hannibal's roof).

When Altena noted there was no real reason for him to personally visit the situation, he remarked that it was advisable for him to know of his nation's events and that he enjoyed traveling with his children. After briefly telling her of his vision of a prosperous future for Thracia, he and Altena departed, leaving Merlock in charge of fighting the "bandits". | ||

Travant later appears in [[The Onslaught|Chapter 14]], bringing a group of soldiers against Tarrah helmed by [[McCloy]]. Travant explained to McCloy that he should pretend to help the empire's forces while only helping them minimally, and then once the empire's forces were weakened to take over Tarrah for themselves. However, Arion convinced Travant to give him free reign to take over Tarrah; Arion then convinced [[Linoan]] to hand control of Tarrah to Thracia. | ||

“ | My sole desire is to see Thracia restored to Dáinn and Njörun's prosperous nation of old... and if doing so condemns me to hell, so be it. | ” | — Travant |
---|
Travant (Japanese: トラバント Trabant) was the king of Thracia during the era of the Grannvale Empire's rise, and a full-blooded descendant of the Crusader Dáinn and inheritor of Gungnir. A prominent figure in the strife facing the Thracian Peninsula, he played a key role in the downfall of the Munster District and was responsible for the deaths of Quan and Ethlyn of Leonster in the Aed Massacre, but was subsequently cowed into submission to the Grannvale occupation of the District led by Bloom. During Seliph's revolution against Grannvale in Grann 777, Travant led Thracia in opposition to Seliph's invasion of the Peninsula, seeking to reunify the Thracian Peninsula as one nation.
Biography
Path to the Aed Massacre
During the Agustrian civil war, Travant was hired by King Chagall to provide reinforcements for his army in resisting Sigurd, and so he deployed a unit of wyvern riders led by Papilio following Eldigan's execution; as soon as Papilio lost the battle, he lost interest in helping Chagall any further and left.
In Grann 761, Travant learned (either directly or indirectly) from Veld of the Loptr Church[1] of the passage of Quan of Leonster, his wife Ethlyn and his Lanceritter across the Aed Desert, and set out with a force of fourteen Thracian Wyvern Riders in pursuit. Slowed down as Quan's army was by the desert sand, Travant and his men quickly overpowered and slaughtered all of them, an event later known as the Aed Massacre. Upon finding that Quan's infant daughter Altena had been travelling with them, Travant took Altena and Gáe Bolg back with him to Thracia; before he left, he entrusted Magorn with the command of the Thracian unit and tasked them with attacking Sigurd's army as they crossed the Aed Desert en route to Grannvale. In the intervening years, Travant raised Altena as his own daughter alongside his biological son, Arion.
Alliance with Grannvale
Shortly after the Aed Massacre, with the defenses of the District depleted and vulnerable, Travant led the Thracian army in a full-scale assault on the north, besieging the city of Munster, who fought with the aid of the Connacht, Ulster and remaining Leonster armies. Partway through the battle, while the Thracian army and Travant waited to observe, the Connacht army under General Raydrik turned on Leonster at the Great River of Thracia, slaying King Calf, obliterating its army and ensuring the fall of the Munster District to Thracia. Travant's hold on the peninsula's north did not last long, as the newly-christened Grannvale Empire responded to a plea for reinforcements from Ulster, soundly defeating Thracia's army and forcing it to retreat.[2] The Munster District came under the rule of the Friege family, was renamed the North Kingdom of Thracia, and Duke Bloom of Friege was instated as its king. Although Thracia retained its independence, Travant was forced into alliance with Grannvale, albeit a reluctant alliance on his part.
In Grann 776, Travant and Altena were guided by the Thracian knight Merlock to the valley in which Hannibal's mansion was situated, in order to observe the approach of an alleged bandit mob assaulting the locals (in reality, Leif's group seeking refuge under Hannibal's roof). When Altena noted there was no real reason for him to personally visit the situation, he remarked that it was advisable for him to know of his nation's events and that he enjoyed traveling with his children. After briefly telling her of his vision of a prosperous future for Thracia, he and Altena departed, leaving Merlock in charge of fighting the "bandits".
In Grann 777, following his defeat at Ulster, Bloom sent requests to Travant for reinforcements against Seliph's liberation army; Travant ignored these calls, intending to leave Grannvale and Seliph to weaken each other and leave themselves open to being defeated by Thracia.[3] His plans, however, backfired with the defeat of Bloom at Connacht and Seliph's subsequent march on Thracia. In preparation for Seliph's march on Thracia, Travant forced General Hannibal into co-operation by having his adoptive son Coirpre/Charlot held hostage by another commander, Distler.
Following Altena learning and confronting him about her true heritage, he passed on Gungnir and the fate of Thracia's people to his son Arion before setting out to confront Seliph personally, explaining himself as having grown tired of the conflict and wanting to end it by handing himself over, if not without a fight.[4] In the following battle, he was killed.

Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
Role
Travant appears in the opening cutscene of Chapter 9 with Altena and Merlock, the chapter's boss. Visiting the region housing Hannibal's mansion with Altena, he talks about his vision for Thracia's future and wish to see an end to the suffering of its people. Travant later appears in Chapter 14, bringing a group of soldiers against Tarrah helmed by McCloy. Travant explained to McCloy that he should pretend to help the empire's forces while only helping them minimally, and then once the empire's forces were weakened to take over Tarrah for themselves. However, Arion convinced Travant to give him free reign to take over Tarrah; Arion then convinced Linoan to hand control of Tarrah to Thracia.
Fire Emblem Awakening
Role
Travant is playable as a SpotPass character, released in the "Others" character set. He is present as an enemy unit in the first and third installments of the Rogues & Redeemers DLC series.

Personality
As is inevitable from one raised in as harsh a nation as Thracia, Travant was blunt, cunning and ruthless, willing to go to any means to further his cause, including hiring himself and his army out as mercenaries;[5] he was not, however, totally committed to his mercenary work and had no interest in staying around to die for a lost cause.[6] He held a strong enmity toward Leonster's royalty, given their status as the primary obstacle between him and the realization of his ambitions, but nonetheless saw the value of raising a scion of the family – Altena – as his own if only for access to Gáe Bolg, though he was loath to admit it to his subordinates. Though he cared for both his true son Arion and Altena, he was more than ready to tell them to stop questioning him if he did not appreciate their advice.
Travant was above all else thoroughly committed to the future of Thracia, seeking to improve the quality of life of his people through the reunification of the peninsula.[7] He was well aware of the nature of his methods, and considered himself to be willing to be condemned by history if it meant the well-being of Thracia in the future.[8] Nonetheless, he and his views were popular among the Thracian army, who saw his way as Thracia's road to salvation.[9]

- ↑ "Manfroy: Make sure that you kill him. If you don't, our efforts of assassinating Quan would be for nought.
Veld: ...They still think Travant is the man responsible for Quan's death...
Manfroy: Hahaha...pathetic fools. Thracia doesn't have the means of getting accurate information on Leonster... Taking advantage of Travant's ambitions to make Northern and Southern Thracia kill each other... Your plan has been a marvelous success." — Manfroy and Veld, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 - ↑ "However, anticipating an attack, the Kingdom of Ulster had requested reinforcements from House Friege of the Grannvale Empire, and after a long time they arrived to the Thracian peninsula. However, terror came with them; namely, a group of mercenaries linked to the Loptrians. The Thracian army had the momentum, but had to retreat in the face of House Friege's prized Mage Knight squad's and the mercenary squad's offensive. Noticing he was at a terrible disadvantage, King Travant reluctantly withdrew from the Munster District. House Friege stationed itself at the north of the district, effectively turning it into a territory of the Grannvale Empire." — "Leonster's Fall" from the Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 Illustrated Works, translated by Serenes Forest, Retrieved: November 21, 2013

- ↑ "Travant: ...Is that right? Well, it looks like I'll be taking matters into my own hands now. Arion, you're watching the castle.
Arion: Yes, father.
Travant: Here, I'm leaving this lance with you. Don't you lose Thracia now, you hear?
Arion: ...Isn't this the Gungnir? Father, what's the meaning of this? You're not going into battle without it, are you?
Travant: I've had enough, Arion. It's me they're after anyway. Do as you see fit after I'm gone, okay?
Arion: Are you suggesting I call for a truce!? You know I could never do that!
Travant: Like I said, do as you see fit. I only ask that you see an end to the people's suffering. Farewell, Arion!" — Travant and Arion, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War - ↑ "Chagall: Travant, are your Wyvern Riders ready yet?
Travant: Yessir. We're ready to go. You'll get what ya paid for outta us.
Chagall: Hmph. Maybe these mercenaries I hired will do more for me than those other imbeciles." — Chagall and Travant, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War - ↑ "Sheesh... Papilion blew it. I think it's about time we bail. Agustria, you're on yer own. Farewell, King Chagall... y'fool." — Travant, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
- ↑ "Everything rests on the unification of the peninsula. The fertile lands to the north hold the key to eliminating poverty within our kingdom. Arion, our ways have often been likened to that of hyenas... Yet our mercenary work for foreign lands has meant the kingdom's survival." — Travant, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
- ↑ "My sole desire is to see Thracia restored to Dáinn and Njörun's prosperous nation of old... and if doing so condemns me to hell, so be it." — Travant, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
