Lon'qu

A skilled swordsman of Regna Ferox who is oddly skittish around women.

Lon'qu is a stoic swordsman from Chon'sin who later makes his home in Regna Ferox. As a child, he lived in the slums and formed a close bond with a girl named Ke'ri—his first and only friend at the time. When Ke'ri was killed by bandits, her parents blamed Lon'qu for failing to protect her, a guilt that drove him to flee his homeland in shame. Unbeknownst to him, Ke'ri’s parents eventually forgave him, as he later learns through his conversations with Cherche.

In Ferox, Lon'qu dedicated himself to the blade, training relentlessly to grow stronger and ensure he would never again fail to protect someone. His talent earned him the attention of West-Khan Basilio, who made Lon'qu his champion. Lon'qu served in this role with distinction until he was defeated at Arena Ferox by a masked fighter known as “Marth.” During their match, Lon'qu hesitated after getting close—his gynophobia triggered upon realizing his opponent was a woman—giving “Marth” the opening to knock him out.

Later, Basilio offers Lon'qu’s service to Chrom during the war with Plegia. When asked if he accepts, Lon'qu complies without objection, though his discomfort around women becomes immediately clear when he quickly rebuffs Lissa's friendly greeting. Despite this, he remains a reliable and disciplined member of the Shepherds, following orders without question.

Lon'qu is defined by his cool, reserved demeanor and his unwavering focus on swordsmanship. His speech is blunt and sometimes awkward, likely due to his solitary upbringing and foreign roots. Beneath his composed surface, however, lies deep trauma—his gynophobia rooted not in disdain, but in fear of forming bonds that might lead to more loss.

He is prideful in his skills and reacts strongly when they are doubted, showing flashes of temper in his interactions with warriors like Vaike and Gregor. Still, Lon'qu is humble at heart and dislikes praise or flattery. He holds Basilio in high regard, aspiring to become a warrior worthy of the Khan's trust and recognition. While Basilio is bold and indulgent, Lon'qu is disciplined and restrained, refusing luxuries like alcohol or rich food.

After the war, Lon'qu returns to Regna Ferox and serves as Basilio’s right-hand man. Though records say he once challenged Basilio to a duel, the reasons and outcome remain a mystery.

The tunic is secured with a wide red belt featuring a decorative cord and tassel. His upper arms are wrapped in dark cloth, and he wears black bracers with fur lining at the wrists. His pants are white with blue side seams and are tucked into tall, black boots with fur lining at the knees and lace-up fronts. A long blue half-cape hangs from his belt, split at the sides.

There are four unit types: Armored, Cavalry, Flying, Infantry.

Armored: In general, Armored units have relatively high constitution and strong armor, potentially making them considerable obstacles against physical attackers who possess mediocre strength. Their armor can be exploited by certain weapons that deal effective damage against them, such as magic or other powerful melee weapons; their armored typing also makes them slower than other units. Cavalry: Fast units that attack while on horseback. They are very fast an can cover a lot of distance. Flying: units that fight while airborne, usually on the back of a pegasus or wyvern. They can fly over most obstacles. Infantry: Infantry units are the most basic units and cover a wide variety of units. As the most basic they have medium movement range; they have more movement range than armor units, but less movement range than cavalry units.

Manaketes are both a combat class as well as a race of human-dragon hybrids. Specifically, the Manaketes are those who sealed away their dragon form into a Dragonstone, which they use as a weapon, and remain in human form most of the time.
