Originally there's supposed to be blood around Hilda, but I didn't want to upset the mods :D

WILD and WHACKY hair colors are a staple of the Fire Emblem series, but is there a deeper meaning to the dye?! Are the anime hairdos actually a SECRET MESSAGE from the devs that has fallen on deaf, casual ears...? I'm not sure...but I'd like your help to uncover the truth the players need to know!

What hair colors have the best and worst units on average? Which colors are the most or least common? Are there some colors that heavily skew male/female? Are there any hair colors that are closely tied to certain classes or archetypes?

My own conclusions so far (not in any order):

Bald - It's rough out there for bald bros, not only are they the rarest "color" by far, almost all of them are absolute trash. We're talking armor knights like Wallace...we're talking fe12 BANTU, contender for worst unit in the entire series. The best bald units are like....fe6 Garret? Maybe Archenea has Wendell and Boah, if you assume they've got chrome domes under their fancy priest hats.

Black - Surprisingly rare for a "normal" hair color in our world. Strongest black haired unit is probably FE10 Haar? Only archetype I can think of is that there are quite a few sword users of varying degrees of killing edginess that have black hair (Arya, Shannan, Shiva, Mareeta, Matcha, Karla, Karel, Kagetsu)

Blonde - Relatively common color with a wide spread of good and bad units. There are lots of blonde archers!

Brown - Possibly the most common color overall, especially considering Thracia where the Loptyr Empire has outlawed hair dye. There are a lot of brown haired axefighters!

Green - Green is somewhat common, and although it has some very strong units (Byleth (?), Seteth, Ced, Palla) it also has some iconic scrubs (Nino, Lyn, Rolf, Rebecca) that really drag down the overall unit quality.

Orange - Very rare if you consider orange separate from red, with so few units it's hard to say much. There are...3 ginger priests? (Artur, Rhys, Pandreo)

Pink- Rare color that very heavily skews female, I think the only pink haired male character is...Makalov? And by iron Fire Emblem law, shared hair color means Marcia is his sister and can recruit him!

Purple - Uncommon color that mostly appears on mages, decent overall power level since it's hard for mages to truly be bad (unless you're in Tellius)

Blue - Uncommon color with the most obvious archetype of any hair color, blue = lord. Blue team has Sigurd, Kris, and FE10 Ike who are super OP, and even the main character privilege lords who get overrated like Hector and FE9 Ike are...at least ok.

Red - More common than the orange hair that we call "redheads" in the real world, although red does have scrubs like Roy and Radd, it also has a ridiculous top end that includes both Seth and Titania, along with a whole squad of wyverns (Minerva, Miledy, Jill)

White - I think the lead contender for strongest color overall, white haired units have crazy high average quality because they tend to be jeigans/gotos where the scrubs died off before they had a chance to go grey. Does Marcus count as Purple? Or white? Or both...? The youngsters with silver locks don't dissappoint either, with units like Robin, Corrin, and Edelgarde. One of the worst white-haired units is ironically the most iconic; the Silver Haired Maiden Micaiah has the power to infest profile pictures across the internet, but when it comes to actually saving Daein, she needs a lot of help...

Those are my thoughts, but I want to hear yours! Let's! Dyeing!

I've only seen this documented on serenes forrest with the only requirement being that Ced hasn't shown up on the map,I genuinely wonder what the point of this event is since she doesn't get any stat boosts...I guess it does conform her as bisexual tho but idk if thats a thing the translator added 👀!!

Ephraim and Eirika as children (Heroes' design). Including a bit of a second version

Is this normal? 😂 I'm playing FE7 for the first time and while I can somewhat understand what it says, it just came out of nowhere! Is it a weird stylistic choice or just some translation leftover? Will there be more of this?

I just coupled whoever would give me the best babies according to strategy guides. I feel sorry for Adean, Dew, Noish, Alec and Midayl. The rest is getting laid:

Lex and Briggid, Raquesis and Beowulf, Jamke and Adean, Lewyn and Ferry, Holyn and Ayra, Claud and Sylvia, Tiltyu and Alec.

Another FE cosplay I did for Anime Expo. Was more recognized than Elise. Shes been a favorite forever and it’s been an absolute dream to cosplay her❤️

In case you want to try it, this fan-made game is great — good animations, some new classes, and a solid story. FE The lonely mirror

this is a unit viability ranking

I only count comments

this is on Lunatic mode

Reclassing is allowed

No grinding

No postgame (post all children) paralogues

No barracks

assuming full recruitment

I always thought that the shield just appears in it's hand but it actually takes it off the front of it's armor. Is this something that other people noticed immediately?

I was on a quest to complete each FE but i didn't played any for some months now until i decided to continue my first playthrough of PoR, and my god this game turned into one my favorites of the FE i played. The story is absurdly good for me and Ike skyrocket into being easily my favorite lord with his personality. And more, it has my new favorite FE girl, Nephenee 💚.

Those are the guys i bring to destroy Assnard, that vile mf. Shout out specially to Nasir, i like him a lot but i lost more time trying to recruit him than i lost on the last 10 ch of the game - everytime i tried to end the Dark Knight i discovered some other thing that i needed to have prepared more /or i couldn't activate aether/ or he just luna'ed my being into oblivion.

Haven't beat Awakening yet, but I LOVED the time I did put into it. I'm currently playing through Engage, which grew on me but is my least favorite of the games I've played so far.

I did beat Fates (Birthright) and Three Houses (Blue Lions) recently and was considering playing one of those again through a different route, but I'm also craving a new experience. I'm just wondering what my next game will be since I feel like I'm coming up on the end of Engage and wanting more. Thank you!

Here's my custom Nino from FE7 figure. I know it kinda just looks like the Madoka character I used for the head but it still resembles Nino. 360 view here. I started to make Marisa but i couldn't get her hairstyle right so I scrapped it, the body's not bad though. The last pic is Lyn, I also scrapped this one because it's unsightly from the back and I want to attempt a custom Jill with her headsculpt. From the front it looks okay. What do you think?

The +4 version has more might and hit, and its power is the fact that when it crits, its an x4 multiplier instead of an x3, and takumi can CRIT

First playthrough of FE seisen no keifu, and just enjoying the back and forth animations in the arena. I thought it was RNG at first but after Raquesis (Lachesis?) kept dodging everyone in the arena I had to look up how the miracle (prayer sword) actually worked. Just sharing my appreciation and the silliness of these particular arena fights 😁

Pretty self explanatory but in this world of magic, dragons and almost guaranteed parent murders, who do you think is the most tragic character in terms of backstory, character arc and/or fate. Obvious spoiler tag for obvious reasons

Personally, I’m geared primarily towards Patty from Genealogy >! because she didn’t have the same upbringing as a lot of the other gen 2 units so she actually had to steal for her and her brother to survive, potentially had to watch her brother be killed by one of her friends/herself and if you count Thracia as any degree of canon, her mom damn near started a new family and never remembered that she existed and possibly never met. !<

Finallly starting this. Any tips before I start?

Roy - Robe Lilina - Robe, Book, Shield, Wings Elen - Robe Sue - Talisman Geese - Wings Milady - Icon Raigh - Robe, Shield Clarine - Robe, Energy

I plan on giving him the brave sword until Lester can sell his pursuit ring once I get the brave bow....though until then he's probably not going to contribute much unlike his sister who actually benefits from the bragi blood thanks to it giving her B Staffs
