Then I order you to use the tome to create rainfall. Make it rain so that the rivers overflow. Push back the advancing Etrurian Army.
— Martel, to Niime

Martel (Japanese: マーテル Martel) is a general of Bern who sought to misuse Niime's dark magic, and the boss of Chapter 18 on the Ilia route of Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. Martel sought the cooperation of Niime, the Mountain Hermit, to attempt to cast a powerful spell that would make rivers flow and push back Roy and his army as they began pushing through Ilia. The powerful spell gets cast, but as Niime predicted, the river freezes over and thus making it easier for Roy and his army to approach; this causes Martel to lose patience with Niime and eventually get himself defeated by Roy and his army.
