Alistair Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 In honor of it being Father's Day (at least in the United States), let's determine who the best dad in Fire Emblem is. Now, I have not played all FEs, but of the ones I have played I'll pick Elbert from Blazing Blade. He clearly had good relationships with Eliwood and Eleanora, and by all accounts it's by his example that Eliwood seems to have raised Roy by - and Roy seems fairly well adjusted thus far in the Binding Blade.

Slumber Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Eliwood and Hector seem like cool dads. Byron from FE4 trekked across a continent, half dead, to give his son a bitchin' sword. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicCanonBalls Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I think Odin is a good and funĀ father based on his support conversation with Ophelia. And maybe Bartre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragoncat Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Greil was a pretty chill dad. He made mistakes, sure, but nobody's perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSbardock84 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Eliwood and Hector for sure. Hector specifically in FEHeroes made me really like him as a father figure. (Even though he's not a father yet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magical Glace Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Eliwood, by virtue of surviving his kidās game. Ā For a less jokey reason, Eliwoodās a good guy as a whole, what other reason do you need? Maybe Iāll think of other readons later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Daddy Garon, after he sees a supposed orphan in front of him, he proudly says that he will be their new father. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jotari Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Gotta give it to Brom. He fights so his kids don't have to. Although I guess he probably should have kept a better eye on Meg, but I think its clear he raised her well enough to take care of herself (in game stats notwithstanding).

Interdimensional Observer Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Ashnard- he chuckedĀ his son and handed him to a mean old lady. Which is likely better than the alternative of Ashnard actually raising his child- sometimes you have to know when you won't make a good parent. Eli isn't bad, Hector doesn't appear to be either, but I don't think we really get much parent time with either of them. Most non-Afatening parents do not get much time with their kids, onscreen at least. This should be a nonsurprise for anyone who knows my likings, but I'll throw in a word for Sephiran.Ā He clearly enjoys being Sanaki's parent figure (what happened to her actual parents by the way?), and Sanaki clearly loves him. I can imagine being a father filled a void and let Sephiran play a role he had for a very long time wanted to perform, but sadly could not. He isn't exactly the best parent, given his other dealings, but those dealings weren't directed at Sanaki directly, she was to be an unfortunate victim of them.

Big man, big family, farmer, raised at least one good natured kid. She might be persistent, but she's apple-pie sweet.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konfused Kieran Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I mean Greil is a pretty obvious choice. On my first playthrough of PoR I didn't really understand Greil's relationship with Ike, as I didn't think he acted "fatherly" enough. But on my second playthrough I realized there's a ton of minute details that demonstrate Greil's love for his family.Ā Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
