Quotes

Battle quotes

Altea's fallen soldiers still live? But as long as I’m here, I won’t let you enter this castle!
— Hollstadt, in Mystery of the Emblem.
Well done, rabble. Anyone else would be dead by now. A shame you must end your campaign right here, before your own gates!
— Hollstadt, in Shadow Dragon.

Death quotes

General Camus, I leave the rest to you...
— Hollstadt, in Mystery of the Emblem.
Rrgh! General Camus... The rest...is in your...hands...
— Hollstadt, in Shadow Dragon.

Trivia

  • Despite being renamed in the Japanese version of Shadow Dragon in comparison to the original game and Mystery of the Emblem, Hollstadt is referred to as HORSTATTE internally, which is closer to his original name, and his English name comes from his original name.
  • It is implied Hollstadt is a member of the Sable Order; the Paladins around him are labeled Sable in Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, and he uses a black color scheme in that game.
  • Hollstadt has an unused color scheme in Mystery of the Emblem depicting him with a very dark purple palette. In the final game, his color scheme is shared with Jiol.
