Father MacGregor (Japanese: マクレガー司祭 Bishop MacGregor) is a clergyman of Grado and a minor background character in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones; he is one of Lyon's, Eirika's, and Ephraim's teachers.

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones

Role

Years before the events of the game, Father MacGregor was one of Lyon's, Eirika's and Ephraim's teachers in Grado. While both Eirika and Lyon were dutiful students, Ephraim's mind often wandered, and was thus frequently scolded. MacGregor guided the trio throughout the years, and was one of the people aware of Lyon's magical studies involving the Sacred Stone of Grado. Lyon hoped to eventually persuade and relieve MacGregor's worries by demonstrating the immense power of the stone and its uses for the greater good.[1] After Lyon was corrupted by the Dark Stone and had Vigarde launch the invasion of Renais, MacGregor attempted to convince Lyon to abandon his plan; in response, Lyon personally executed MacGregor.[2]

Personality

Ephraim appears to have not really liked MacGregor, primarily due to the harsh reactions he would receive from neglecting his studies. MacGregor seems to have taught a wide range of subjects, from court courtesy[3] to history.[4]

Trivia

  • Father MacGregor may have been Natasha's mentor; Natasha's mentor was executed as a traitor[5] and had knowledge of Grado's ultimate goal to destroy the Sacred Stones,[6] which MacGregor may have had.[citation needed]
