Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade
Role
Wade is a young man from the Western Isles. Having grown up in a poor village, he and his best friend Lot decide to leave the islands in search of a job. After a while, they join Dieck's band, which is then hired by Lord Eliwood for the war against Bern. They are to meet Roy at a certain point near the border with Bern, but when Wade and his comrades arrive there, the Pheraen army is already fighting. They join the battle immediately, and after rescuing Elen's mistress, they work alongside Roy during the rest of the war.
When the Lycian Army is fighting bandits in the Western Isles, they come across a small village. If Wade and Lot visit certain houses, their sisters will come and talk to them, giving valuable items to help them in battle.
After Bern is defeated and the war is over, Wade returns to the Western Isles and dedicates himself to their development. Over the years, his work becomes the basis for the greatest city of that nation.

Personality and character
Wade's main trait is his hot-blooded attitude. He likes to fight - and likes doing it on his own style. He is used to charge ahead and leave the small details to others,[1] and hates being called weak, even resorting to exaggerate his adventures.[2] Dieck is always calling him on this, but Wade tends to forget his boss' advice.[3] His tendency to rush through things and somewhat naive personality make him the target of many jokes; he complains that not even Lot's little sister respects him.[4]
According to his supports with Lot and Ekhidna, he frequently fights[5] with his sister. Nevertheless, deep down, he greatly values his family and comrades, calling Lot off after he confesses having left his sister alone.[6] He certainly has problems expressing his true feelings.[7]

Wade: Grr... You'll regret saying that... You don't want to see me when I'm angry.
Ekhidna: Oh?
Wade: What are you looking at me like that for?! I've slain monsters stronger than any human!
Ekhidna: Wow, now that's something. What kind of beasts?
Wade: ...Near my village...there's this weird cave. When I was a kid, people said it was filled with monsters. So one day I got my friend Lot and we went to defeat them.
Ekhidna: Yeah?
Wade: The cave was dark and damp... Something seemed wrong. Lot was scared, but I was fine. I led the way...and finally, there they were. The monsters were crawling all over the cave floor. Long, skinny bodies slithering about, all scaly and spotted...
Ekhidna: Snakes?" — Wade and Ekhidna's B support, Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade - ↑ "Dieck: ...Wade.
Wade: Big Man! Did you see me?! I took down three guys with one swing...

Lot: Because if I did, you'd tell me to go home to Myu.
Wade: No kidding! She's all alone now. Don't you care about your baby sister?
Lot: But I got the message during a job. I couldn't leave without finishing.
Wade: ...Lot?
Lot: What?
Wade: You're stupider than I thought." — Wade and Lot's B support, Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade - ↑ "Shanna: What? I thought you were angry about me fighting without you.
Wade: Of course I am! We need to work as a team in battle...
Shanna: Then what was all that about the archers and stuff?
Wade: Uh! Th-that was...
