Explain to me why I should care for someone so clearly worthless. Sisters be damned. If the Askrans dispose of her, that's one less piece of trash I need to deal with myself. Perhaps I should thank them for saving me the time and effort, hm?
— Fáfnir, to Ótr

Fáfnir (Japanese: ファフニール Fafnir) is a major antagonist of Book V of Fire Emblem Heroes. Originally a kind-hearted young man after being summoned from another world and ascending the throne in Niðavellir, he was corrupted by Eitri and now seeks to conquer the kingdom of Askr.
