What are your top 15 Fire Emblem characters?

[Maddie]

What are your top 15 favorite Fire Emblem characters is general based on their personality, usefulness as a unit or design etc. I've not yet played Tharcia, Binding Blade, Sacred Stones, NMotE or Fates yet so my list isn't final since I've loved most of the characters from each of the games I've played so far. Though to be fair I kind of struggle ranking every character overall as there is a lot of great characters in the franchise.

1. Edelgard
2. Ike
3. Eliwood
4. Lucina
5. Owain
6. Tiki
7. Dimitri
8. Celica
9. Lyn
10. Marth
11. Chrom
12. Arvis
13. Hubert
14. Black Knight
15. Annette

There's more than 15 characters who I really like, though I suppose off the top of my head (in no particular order):

• Gray
• Jill
• Cordelia
• Patty
• Alm
• Arthur (FE4)
• Tine
• Hector
• Ike
• Claude
• Dimitri
• Lysithea
• Canas
• Python
• Dorothea

It tends to change from time to time tbh

4- Ishtar
5- Ophelia
6- Tharja
7- Severa
8- Annette
9- Zephiel
10- Owain
11- Sonia (the morph)
12- Serra
13- Mitama
14- Lethe
15- Arthur (Fates)

[Anathaco]

In no particular order because ranking is hard (though the first couple probably will be, inadvertently)

1. Cyril
2. Fernand
3. Ferdinand von Aegir 
4. Lloyd (Reed)
5. Ashe
6. Python
7. Dedue
8. Felix
9. Raphael
10. Stahl
11. Linus
12. Ricken
13. Felix
14. Ignatz
15. Luthier

Kind of a lot of 3H characters on here, though I suppose that's to be expected.

Very serious mistake when writing Ferdinand Von Aegir’s name

[Anacybele]

I think I can list 15, yeah! Or rather, 16 since there's a tie at number 2. 😛

1. Ike (of course!)
T-2. Frederick
T-2. Sylvain
3. Kieran
4. Silas
5. Elincia
6. Ranulf
7. Claude
8. Ephraim
9. Sain
10. Marcia
11. Ryoma
12. Zihark
13. Kaze
14. Lukas
15. Cordelia

Yep, this would be about right.
 

[Fire Emblem Fan]

1. Lyn
2. Ephraim
3. Eliwood
4. Leif
5. Nils
6. Ninian
7. Eirika
8. Brom
9. Marth
10. Roy
11. Matthew

13. Joshua
14. Hector
15. Sigurd or Lucius

The order after Leif is kinda flexible. It could change tomorrow. But yeah, I think that's my Top 15.

Hello, fellow Brom fan. How are you doing?

(By the way, we really are the only ones that cited Brom at the moment. This is kind of..sad.)

[Troykv]

This is going to be weird to rank because outside of the Top 3 and maybe the Top 5 the rest are more interchangable.

1.- Micaiah

2.- Sophia

3.- Nino

4.- Edelgard

5.- Sakura

6.- Roy

7.- Lucina

8.- Maria

9.- Olivia

10.- Tharja

11.- Minerva

12.- Tiki

13.- Lute

14.- Eirika

15.- Genny

Other characters that would fit in the Top depending my humor: Caeda, Catria, Est, Silque, Celica, Kliff, Lewyn, Julia, Sara, Lilina, Cecilia, L'Arachel, Haar, Naesala, Mist, Mia, Ilyana, Laura, Dorothea, Lysithea.

(None of my tastes makes sense except I like women xD)

@Icelerate I loved Pelleas too even though I spent most of the game extremely paranoid he was going to suddenly betray me or something because of how sketchy they made him before the reveal later on in the game.

[Kiran_]

Hmm, 15? No particular order, just who came to me.

1. Robin (M)

2. Edelgard

3. Lucina 

4. Morgan (F)

5. Dimitri

6. Ephraim

7. Nils

10. Ewan

11.Eliwood

12. Heath

13. Soren

14. Gray

15. Kliff

 

Sooo ... a pretty good mix of games. Clearly have a soft spot for some baby mage boy characters. LOL.

1.- Lewyn

3.- Brigit

4.- Leanne

5.- Effin

6.- Seliph

7.- Arden

8.- Noire

I missed a lot of characters but those are some of my favourites that came to mind in the moment

 

Edited October 11, 2019 by Mylady

[Sunwoo]

Keep in mind that only the first two are in any actual order.

1. Tormod (FE 9/10)
2. Rath (FE7)
3. Ike (FE 9/10)
4. Eirika (FE8)
5. Reinhardt (FE5)
6. Takumi (FE14)
7. Oboro (FE14)
8. Innes (FE8)
9. Luthier (FE 2/15)
10. Eliwood (FE 7)
11. Marica (FE 9/10)
12. Laurent (FE13)
13. Elincia (FE 9/10)
14. Sanaki (FE 9/10)
15. Saleh (FE8)

I haven't played Three Houses, so I'm just not putting any of them on my list because I don't know any of them that well. Also, everyone from Laurent down is interchangeable with a few other characters not on this list.

5. Dagda

7. August
