History: Felix-Specific Stuff | Overall Game Synopsis | Azure Moon Timeline

Personality:
Strengths

→ Compassionate

When Felix was a child, Felix was known to be a bit of a crybaby? Felix felt everything so, so deeply—and Felix continues to feel everything so, so deeply, which he does his absolute best to hide with that aforementioned prickly persona. He's terrible at separating himself from others, despite his best efforts, and his in-game supports are littered with examples to illustrate this. He helped Ingrid with her chores after she was wounded in battle; he fussed at Sylvain for attempting to protect him during a fight, then rushed to his bedside when he heard that he was grievously wounded (spoiler alert: he was NOT); he told Ashe to never give up on his dream of becoming a knight, despite his own aversion to the title; he stopped everything to listen to Bernadetta when she simply asked him to; he worked around his hatred of sweets because Lysithea baked a cake just for him—like, need I go on? It's obvious that, while he tries to bury his care and concern for others, he just... can't. Oh, he'll snap at them, and he'll continue to call them out for their foolish behavior, but if people can patiently look past that—which people frequently do, given that he isn't as hard to read as he'd like to think—then he'll wind up (grudgingly) accepting them. He will always, always be there when he's needed, even if he's snapping at them all the while.

→ Sensible

Felix is sharp-tongued, sure, but he keeps a cool head, recognizing the importance of thinking things through before acting upon them—and as he isn't afraid to say what others may be thinking, he often serves as a sort of voice of reason. I'd say the best example of this is the fact that Felix is the first to notice, and therefore call out, Dimitri's deteriorating mental state? He frequently snaps at Dimitri whenever Dimitri goes on about savagely murdering his enemies, or mentions hearing the voices of the dead, because Dimitri is clearly unwell—and that does not bode well for the forces he leads. "If we keep running down this path," Felix warns his old professor after witnessing another one of Dimitri's rampages, "it's only a matter of time before the ground beneath us collapses." He recognizes that Dimitri is dividing them, and he knows that the key to winning the war is sticking together. He's surprisingly good at seeing the big picture.

→ Self-Sufficient

Life shouldn't be about putting yourself into harm's way without a second thought, all in the pursuit of the perfect, heroic death; life should be about living, and for that purpose, Felix throws himself into his training time and time again, dedicating himself to becoming stronger than anyone and everyone. If he is the strongest, you see, then no one can challenge him—and no one can sacrifice their life for him. It goes back to his compassion, in a sense? Felix's ultimate goal in life is to be strong enough to ensure his own survival while keeping a close eye on those he cares for. Strength became... everything, to Felix! It's why he's known to challenge people to spar with him within the first, like, ten minutes of meeting them. Better to know then and there if they're worth his time, you know... better to push them away before a bond forms, while testing his skills in the process...

Weaknesses

→ Prickly

Honestly, as far as first impressions go, Felix... doesn't go out of his way to make a good one. He generally doesn't care how people view him, so he's brusque! He's blunt! He will tell someone precisely what he thinks of them/their plans/their opinions without any reservations whatsoever, because he is, quite honestly, a prickly, prickly man—and that's because he deliberately seeks to keep others at an arm's length. Over the course of his life, he's lost far too many of those he cares for; those that remain are reckless, or self-sacrificing, or some combination of the two, and thus Felix's approach is meant to protect both himself and those around him. If he puts up a metaphorical wall between himself and the rest of the world, then no one will feel the need to risk their life for his sake? He won't suffer through yet another loss? It's a carefully calculated front, meant to disguise the fact that Felix is...

→ Cynical

This ties in with his prickliness, I suppose, but Felix's cynicism truly is the stuff of legends. He rarely expects things to go/work out well? He's, again, sensible enough to see what needs to be done to ensure the optimal outcome, but unless he's handling it himself, he's just... so sure it isn't going to happen. Other people are too weak, or too emotional, or too tied up in the ideological—and that last bit is of, ah, particular concern to Felix, given that he grew up in the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus. Chivalry is a cornerstone of Faerghan culture, and Felix detests that so many people are willing to throw their lives away in the pursuit of a "good" death, that so many others see that as the only thing worth recognizing. "Chivalry begets the worship and glorification of death," he explains. "Am I alone in finding that grotesque?" There's a truly personal reason for this; like, Felix's older brother, Glenn, was a knight who died in the service of the king, and when his broken, burned armor was all that was returned t his family, Felix's father proudly declared that his son "died like a true knight." Felix, mourning the loss of the person he knew, found the focus on Glenn's death disgusting—and he still does.

→ Stubborn

Felix is so stubborn! My God, Felix is so stubborn—and it's both a strength and a weakness. Entrust him with a task and, if he deems it worthy of his time, Felix will stop at nothing to accomplish it; like, he will push himself to his absolute limits to see it through, simply because Felix refuses to half-ass anything. On the other hand, though, if Felix sees something to be a waste of his time, neither hell nor high water will convince him to move. He would rather bicker and/or suffer the inevitable consequences than compromise anything about himself, so don't expect him to back down? Don't expect him to easily change his views, especially those as deeply rooted as, say, his opinions re: chivalry? It's not, like, an impossibility, but Felix is so set in his ways that it will take quite a bit to make him step back and reassess himself.

Greatest Motivation

Though Felix is loath to admit it, Felix cares greatly for his friends' well-being. As I mentioned above, chivalry is deeply ingrained into Faerghan culture; so many of Felix's friends would—do—throw themselves into harm's way without a second thought, and as Felix has lost far too many people throughout the course of his life, Felix is determined to do whatever it takes to protect those who remain. It's why he spends so much time training? Why he's dedicated to becoming stronger? If he can handle any threat, then no one he cares for will ever need to risk their life for his sake—and he can silently protect them.

Hobbies

Sparring, weapon maintenance, scouring the local blacksmith's wares—if it involves quality weaponry, Felix is there. He canonically spends a ton of time in the training grounds, both perfecting his techniques and learning new ones. He's boring like that? But he also enjoys hunting, so he's fairly decent with a bow... catch him tracking a boar in the Whispering Woods...

New Situations

Felix is prickly, and thus Felix does not necessarily enjoy being thrust into new situations—but he isn't all that bad with them. Oh, don't expect him to, like, immediately make friends; his lone wolf nature means that he can and will keep to himself (which can and will bite him in the butt), but he is practical enough, sensible enough, to recognize what needs to be done—and do it without any sort of fuss. It's what kept him alive during the years spent fighting on the frontlines of a rebellion; it's what kept him alive during the months spent fighting on the frontlines of an all-out war; it's what will keep him alive in a strange new world full of strange new things.
Abilities:
  • Offensive Magic: Despite having a budding talent for Reason (Fire Emblem's term for what is essentially dark magic), Felix only has access to two spells: Thunder (minor lightning magic; 8 uses) and Thoron (advanced lightning magic; 4 uses). He rarely uses these spells? He prefers to take things apart up close, ie with his swords, but he'll fall back on his spells if he's backed into a corner—and they do pack a punch.
  • Major Crest of Fraldarius: Felix possesses a Crest, which is an inherited ability that Felix... doesn't have control over, per se? It ~activates~ of its own accord during random attacks, increasing the MT (attack power) of Felix's weapon—which means that Felix occasionally hits harder than he normally does. We're never really given info re: how often this happens, but as Felix has a major Crest, it procs more often than minor Crests tend to. In the game itself, Felix's Crest activating is something I'd definitely work out with the person/people I'm threading with!
  • Aegis Shield: I know it's nerfed, but as Relics are Important to those who wield them: The Aegis Shield is a Hero's Relic (a thousand-year-old weapon crafted from the bones of a dragon, although Felix and friends do not know this) passed down through the Fraldarius family. Only a person with a Crest of Fraldarius can wield it without turning into a beast, and as for what it does... well, it functions just like a normal shield, but sometimes it halves the damage its wielder takes? We're not really given any stats regarding how often that happens, sadly; if the Aegis Shield does regain some functionality at some point in this game's run, this is another thing I would work out with the person/people I'm threading with.
Inventory:
  • A black iron spur tucked away in his pocket...
  • Two (2) Zoltan-forged swords, which are just... regular swords he's always wearing strapped to his side, because he is honestly Just Like That.
  • A hunting dagger tucked into his boot, because again: he is Just Like That.
  • The Aegis Shield, which is now just... a normal, if spooky-looking, shield??
  • A pack containing some smoked meat, a small tin of Almyran Pine Needle Tea (tm), and a whetstone or two.
Vision: Cryo!
Reason: Felix has lost so many people in his life. His beloved older brother, his father—you could even say that he lost the Dimitri he once knew, and as Felix feels things every bit as deeply as he did when he was a child, such losses continue to hurt. They linger, constantly, in the back of his mind, and while he uses this as motivation to become stronger, that pain never really fades? It's why he carries that black iron spur about, a piece of his brother's charred armor—and why he's determined to protect those closes to him. Felix may not be the best at actually showing it, but Felix genuinely loves his friends; there is little he wouldn't do for them.
Role: Felix is a front-line fighter, though I wouldn't call him a tank. He can tank? Like, he can divert an enemy's attention long enough for a ranged unit to get some attacks in, but he does better when he can run in, smack some fools around, and run back out. Tank-y... DPS... I'm so bad with this, closes my eyes @ myself. He's on the Offense.
Constellation: A shield! Shaped like his Relic.
