As Awakening is pure fanservice, even the protagonist's pairings are references to the love interests of the other lords of the franchise: Sumia is obviously a reference to Caeda; Robin is a callback to Deirdre (and possibly Celica too?) Maribelle is maybe an allusion to Nanna (blonde noblewoman who has known the lord since they were children); Olivia represents Ninian (and obviously a bit of Deirdre, they even marry our protagonist after only 2 conversations!)

Some of these are kinda a stretch from my perspective, but that said this would posit that Inigo is Roy and now I really want Harminozed Roy/Inigo because it would be so funny.

Fire Emblem logic : All main lords look the same.

Mercakete Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 17 hours ago, Mylady said: I said pair up, not necessarily breeding. There's a difference. I think it's a distinguished feature of Fire Emblem games that is an attractive for the franchise: choosing the ending by pairing characters. So trying to control what is canon with questionable points is not nice at all and creates a lot of problem and toxicity with in the fandom imo Ah, my mistake. Hmm but yeah, I don't think anyone said that any pairing here was canon, but rather the question being which pairing is the "most" canon. That is, which pairing IS favors/intended. Though we can't say for sure without IS making a statement themselves, there are some clues which players can glean. For example, though Micaiah and Sothe's ending in RD isn't a sure thing, they start off with an A support. This is evidence that the way that IS intended players to go is to unlock their paired ending. That said, they also give the freedom to players to not guide the characters toward that end. So, while not technically "canon," it is the "most canon" as there are elements within the game which encourage players to go that route.

silverserpent Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 ...I'm just wondering where people are getting the information that Chrom!Inigo has a Brand? I just want clarification and citation, because I don't remember this. From anywhere. And I, sadly, lack the time to go back and do a Chrom/Olivia playthrough.

Diovani Bressan Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) I don't think this thing about Inigo deserve a whole topic to discuss... I mean... It's not a big of a deal of anything. It's a cool reference/easter egg though. Edited March 26, 2021 by Diovani Bressan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CherryBomb Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Hey, just wanted to point out that his right eye is closed too. You know, the one where he supposedly has the brand? Also, in Fates, Laslow (Inigo) asks Xander whether he has a brand on his eye that marks his lineage. Though it could be a simple reference to Lucina it could also mean he's talking about himself, since the entire point of the conversation was to kind of imply there's a lot to his character Xander doesn't know about, having changed appearance and all. Also, he seems to be very close to Odin (Owain), which again doesn't mean the world, but he's not as close with Selena (Severa). And if you make him talk to Chrom in Before Awakening DLC, he's got some sentimental dialogue I don't quite remember, but... The point is I think they're implying something XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenomata Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 @CherryBomb Hey, just wanted to point out this thread has been dead for a year and that that is generally not cool to revive it for... admittedly a slightly better reason that the usual nonsense people post in dead threads for, but even still not really justifiable enough to do so. Also that's a lot of near baseless assumption, and I double checked the conversation you were talking about from Before Awakening. It honestly is a huge stretch to say there was anything sentimental going on beyond Lazlow sending a message to Olivia. There is nothing to imply, Inigo is just as ambiguously parented as always. Also, you can check the conversation yourself, there's no reason to say you can't remember it or don't know how it goes beyond not doing the research. Seriously, why do people keep trying to revive dead threads, they just get slaughtered on the spot regardless... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
