Wrys

“ | I am Wrys, a humble curate. I cannot fight, but this staff I carry can heal your wounded. Take me with you, and you'll be very glad you did. | ” | — Wrys |
---|
Wrys (Japanese: リフ Riff) is a humble elderly curate from Talys and an ally of Marth. He volunteered his services as a user of healing staves to Marth's army during both the War of Shadows and the War of Heroes, and later ran a monastery in Altea.
Biography
Wrys lived in a village to the south of the Talys castle during the War of Shadows. He took an interest in helping Marth and had hoped to meet him for some time.[1] When Marth visited his village during the battle with Gazzak and the pirates of Galder, Wrys offered to join his cause, promising that Marth would be very glad to have the staff Wrys carried on hand to heal his wounded. Wrys served with the Archanean League through the War of Shadows, and after its conclusion, he settled down in Altea and constructed a small monastery there so he could take in and care for orphans of the war.
Two years later, Wrys was recruited by Cain to assist with the training of Altea's 7th Platoon as the team's healer. Upon meeting him, Luke was horrified to learn that Wrys was not the cute cleric he was hoping for.[2] Following the 7th Platoon's foiling of the assassination attempt on Marth, Wrys departed on a journey, although he believed that eventually he would meet a certain member of the 7th Platoon again.[3]
His belief proved to be true, as when the assassins began systematically hunting all of Marth's old allies from the War of Shadows, this included Wrys.[4] An assassin unit led by Clarisse cornered Wrys in the northern mountains of Macedon, but he was saved by the timely arrival of Marth's army. Wrys rejoined Marth once again for the duration of the War of Heroes. After the war he returned to his monastery and lived the rest of his life there, occasionally leaving to assist in the training of prospective knights.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Wrys is the first staff-wielding unit to join Marth's army. Vulneraries are sparse in Shadow Dragon's earlygame, so being the primary source of healing makes him quite valuable. He has all-around low stats and growth rates, but the Magic stat has little impact on how much HP is restored by staves. His usefulness later on depends on how many staff users are needed; Lena and Wendell join in Chapters 3 and 5 respectively, and both of them provide more utility than Wrys thanks to their higher staff ranks, plus offensive support in Wendell's case.
Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem
Role
Although he was not present in either book of the original Mystery of the Emblem, Wrys returns as a playable character in both the New Mystery prologue and the main story. In his return appearance in Chapter 3x, he starts the chapter in the middle of the map, well away from the player's army, and part of the chapter's goal is to reach him in time to save him from the enemies. If he survives the chapter, in the closing cutscene Wrys gives the player the option to change Kris's hairstyle to give them a bald head.
Wrys is the only character in New Mystery of the Emblem with a unique staff named for him available through Everyone's Conditions: Wrys's Staff.

Personality and character
Wrys is greatly fascinated by observing how the children under his care learn and grow every day.[5] While he is a trained healer, Wrys prefers not to heal the children of the monastery unless he absolutely has to, as he believes that it is important for children to learn about danger and injury.[6] He held an appreciation for witnessing friendships between other people.[7]

Trivia
- Along with Roger, Darros, Jake, and Beck, Wrys is one of five characters from Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light who did not return in any way in Mystery of the Emblem. In Wrys's case, he is replaced by a Vulnerary which the village that originally contained him gives Marth instead. Fire Emblem Cipher later poked fun at this by depicting Wrys holding a Vulnerary.
- New Mystery of the Emblem makes a minor running joke out of Wrys. In both occasions where he meets the player's army again, both in the prologue and the main story, he repeats the same introduction he gave in both versions of Shadow Dragon. The line is quoted yet again on his basic Cipher card.
- In Fire Emblem Warriors one of the elderly generic villagers resembles Wrys, though Wrys himself does not appear in Warriors.
- Wrys is the only playable character in Fire Emblem Heroes to have Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light identified as his game of origin.

Kris: Ah! I assume, since you're mentioning it, that you've found a new lead?
Jagen: We're not certain, but we've received information that might lead us to them. A few days ago, I heard of a suspicious group heading towards Macedon's northern mountains.
Marth: The northern mountains? What could they be after up there?

Kris: T-thank you. You're making me a little embarrassed...
Wrys: Hoho, looking at you brings back memories of the children at the monastery in Altea.
Kris: There's a monastery in Altea...?
Wrys: Yes, I built a small monastery after the last war. There are many delightful children there.
Kris: Oh my gosh! That's wonderful...
Wrys: The children there grow stronger with every passing day, living in harmony with nature. Just like you, Dame Kris.
Kris: That's very kind of you.
Wrys: Yes, even your naughty sides are akin..." — Wrys and Kris, Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem - ↑ "Wrys: I see... Alright. There's a bountiful sea near the monastery. The children often go play there.
Kris: Sounds fun.
Wrys: Yes. But since they're so energetic... they injure themselves often.
Kris: Hmm and that's when you heal them with your staff, right Sir Wrys?
Wrys: No, I don't do that.
Kris: Pardon? Why not...?
Wrys: Why are you befuddled, lass? People are born with the power of healing their own wounds. A staff's power is merely a supplement to that natural healing. And, besides, children need to learn that getting hurt is dangerous... That is what I humbly believe.
Kris: Yes... I agree with you too.
Wrys: That's why I only heal them when it's absolutely required." — Wrys and Kris, Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem - ↑ "The bonds of people are truly a wondrous sight, no matter your age." — Wrys, Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem
