001 Roy
The young leader who carries the next generation of Lycia on his shoulders.
The son of Eliwood, who is the head of Pherae –a kingdom in the eastern area of the Lycian League. When Bern invaded, he took the place of his sickly father as leader of the Pherae Army. Although young, he lead the army with excellent judgment and leadership to quell the rebellion against Pherae. Afterward, he completely devoted himself to the restoration of Lycia.
Profile
Gender………………………….………………..Male
Estimated Age………………….…………………..15
Title………………………………….……Young Lion
Origin…………………….………………………Lycia
Stat ……………………..……….Pherae Army Leader
Weapon…Sword (Exclusive:Rapier, Sword of Seals)
Roy lacks combat experience, as he is still young. He leads the Pherae army against the rebellion and succeeds despite that, using nothing more than his sword and arm. Not only did he surpass a leader’s quick thinking and judgment, but also skill with a sword arm. Even though Roy does not behave like a noble nor military leader, his way of thinking gives empathy and hope to many people.
Roy’s way of thinking is neither like a noble or soldier. He gives hope and empathy to not just nobles or soldiers, but to everyone alike. With that skill as a driving force Roy was able to gather talent from all over and build up a great army.
