was inspired by neotula 's chart of favorite FE characters with this - while I think i've done a ranking or two of tellius characters specifically I hadn't considered the series as a whole and it was actually a lot of fun to revisit this after playing fe:heroes has switched up the list somewhat for me (mostly enjoying characters from other titles i'd never have touched otherwise). 

(apologies for the messiness, did this in between work.)




first row: vaida, tanith, karel, nailah, hel
second row: jill, stefan, hubert, renault, titania
third row: wallace, legault, zihark, sephiran, lyon (fallen!lyon in particullar)
fourth row: nasir, calleach, sanaki, travant, volke
fifth row: hilda (FE4), petrine, valter, eitri, naesala

* .... other than titania and sanaki i think maybe every single one of these characters is straight up a villain/enemy at some point xD  i'm a villain stan, man.

* hilda (FE4) might be the only wobbly choice (maybe swapped out with haar?) one as she just came out in FEH like ... today ... (listen she's evil and hot and has some fucking gorgeous artwork, I'm down). eitri might be another surprise to some but for a one-off gacha villain that showed up in all of 4 chapters or something I've had a "lot" of fun what with her bodysnacher/immortal mad scientist vibe and the self insert storyline about that >_> may have even drawn half a comic strip with her in there ... won't post it though cuz i ran out of steam there.

*unwilling immortals/not entirely human characters is not exactly a small chunk of this list actually hmm, there's at least five of them here. (hi renault, drawing you recently was so much fun to dig into your lore)

*i don't know if i've shared this but i think tanith was like my very very very first FE favorite before zihark eclipsed everyone else LOL - fucking loved her armor, her poise and her badassness, and I still have a lot of fondness her way. nasir's on the list for similar reasons.

* beyond "unwilling fucked up immortals" the other two trends I see are "hammy scheming villains" and "i thought i was loyal to x but the world got fucked up  or I did and i honestly need a drink" which, big mood

oh my gosh, definitely some great characters on this! Travant is so cool, love seeing Vaida and Petrine. There's definitely a few on here that I considered adding to mine too but ended up not adding.

Very good character taste, definitely some patterns with villain characters going there!

Travant's a fantastic character, I can't stand what FEH did to him gameplay wise T_T straddles that mix of 'unrepentent villain' and yet... again, there's that sense of tragedy, especially with the extremely complex feelings with Altena as his "adopted" daughter.

Thank you! :D (what is it about wyvern lords lol)
