“	The right of kings is not decided by blood or station. It lies in what a man believes. What keeps him up at night. It lies in a man's actions!	”	— Clive, to Berkut

Clive (Japanese: クレーベ Clerbe) is the former leader of the Deliverance, a resistance force against the Rigelian invasion and Desaix's coup d'etat of Zofia, and the elder brother of fellow knight Clair. When Alm came in Mycen's stead to join the liberation, Clive ceded leadership of the army to Alm's command instead.

Fire Emblem Gaiden

Role

When Alm and his group arrived at the resistance's headquarters within a shrine, Clive requested that Alm take over as its leader and joined his group, fighting in the remainder of the war with Rigel.

If the character's stats are higher than their promoted class' base stats, they will not receive any bonus; however, if all stats are higher, then they will receive +1 to HP.

Analysis

This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience.

Clive is the first Cavalier obtained in Alm's route, unless one of the villagers was made into one. His high mobility is a great asset on the battlefield, especially since most units are stuck to a Movement range of 4 or 5. He comes equipped with a Steel Lance, a valuable weapon for any lance wielder. He's also considered to be the best wielder of the ridersbane for most of act 3, before Mathilda joins, due to Claire and villager cavalier needing far more training to promote into paladin and not having his great bulk. Clive won't be able to double the act 3 cavaliers at base, so he will need an early promotion into paladin for +1 speed and a point from the speed shrine to be able to effectively one round the enemy cavaliers with a forged ridersbane.

Clive's joining level will be on par with the rest of the army, and so will his base stats. His Attack will likely be among the highest, and his HP, Skill, Speed, and Defense are decent, making him a solid unit when he joins and throughout the early game. Unfortunately, Clive's prowess is limited by a couple of factors, the most important being his low growth rates. Aside from HP and Attack, 55% and 40% respectively, they are all on the low side, putting him at risk of not keeping up with the other units in the long run. The other obstacle with Clive comes from his competition, including Mathilda, Zeke, any Cavalier-promoted villager, and even Mycen to some extent, with the former two being formidable and easily surpassing Clive. However Clive can still be a decent unit in act 4 if he's promoted to gold knight, as gold knight bases are very high.

If the player decides to use the DLC Pitchfork on Clive, he makes for a good Mercenary, increasing his Skill and Speed. Upon promoting to a Dread Fighter, he will regain his Movement from when he was a Cavalier, and the class's skills will patch up his abysmal Resistance, allowing him to at least survive magic attacks.

Clive isn't a bad unit by any means, as Cavalier is always a good class to be in. However, he is far from the best one in the game, as Mathilda surpasses him in offense and long term potential, while Zeke surpasses him in every way aside from availability. He makes for a solid unit during the early and mid sections of the story, but don't expect him to be amazing in the late-game.

Fire Emblem Heroes

Role

Clive is one of the characters added to the game in the Nohrian Summer update, and was made available to players in the third edition of the Tempest Trials, "Reunited at Last", which initially ran from August 11, 2017 through August 25, 2017. Only one variation of Clive is currently available in Heroes, based on his Echoes: Shadows of Valentia incarnation.

Despite Clive's lowest inherent rarity being four-star, some skill information pertaining to a three-star version of Clive is known.

Personality and character

Clive believed that Mycen would be the ideal leader and future king of Zofia and wished to cede control of the liberation to him, but when Mycen declined to fight, Clive instead entrusted leadership to Alm, believing that having Alm in the command role would allow himself and the other freedom fighters to have an easier time fighting in the war. Despite this, in Gaiden, he had minimal characterization, owing to having minimal dialogue.

Shadows of Valentia expands on Clive's personality. He is shown as a very mellow, kind, and calm individual who will not hesitate to be serious and imposing when he has to be. His humility defined him as a leader, as understanding the big picture, recognizing his own weaknesses, and appreciating the potential of the common people allowed him to step down as leader of the Deliverance and cede that position to Alm.

Ending

Gaiden

If Mathilda survived
He was entrusted with the command of the newly formed knights' order of Valentia.
Recently, it's been heard that he accepted a beautiful wife.

If Mathilda died
He was entrusted with the command of the newly formed knights' order of Valentia.
However, afterwards, he lost his life in a battle against pirates.

Echoes: Shadows of Valentia

If Mathilda survived
Clive was appointed the first captain of the One Kingdom's Brotherhood of Knights. His talent and honesty made him popular with commoners and nobles alike, and under his leadership, the knights flourished. He and his lovely wife were objects of the people's envy.

If Mathilda died
His heart still heavy from the loss of Mathilda, Clive was appointed captain of the One Kingdom's Brotherhood of Knights. A few short years later, he was killed in a skirmish with pirates. The people grieved deeply over the young loss of so fine a knight.
