Owain

Lissa's son who tends to be overly theatrical. He loves to give weapons dramatic names.

Owain is the son of Lissa and the cousin of Lucina from the future. Owain's supports and conversations with Laurent during the Hot-Spring Scramble, and his ending in Fates, reveal that he is a prolific writer. He is quite proud of his heroic lineage and bears the Brand of the Exalt on his arm, proving that he and Lissa are of the Ylissean royal bloodline. Owain has an "uncontrollable sword hand" which apparently seeks battle. However, this is revealed to be mostly for dramatic effect, and he admits in the Hot-Spring Scramble that he actually does not have uncontrollable power. He is part of the Justice Cabal along with Cynthia, Morgan, and formerly Gerome.

In the future, Owain helped his parents fight off the Risen. According to Owain, during a battle a Risen archer attempted to attack Owain from behind, but his father pushed him out of the way and died taking the arrow intended for Owain. Later, during another battle, Owain says Lissa was killed while she was healing the wounded. Owain was given his mother's ring, which he continues to wear.

He joined Lucina and the other children to return to the past and prevent the ruinous future.

In his Paralogue, the Sage's Hamlet is attacked by bandits. Owain steps in and attempts to quell the bandits. He successfully manages to take one down, but messes up trying to deal with another. Chrom and the Shepherds are standing off to side watching Owain's theatrics and decide to help him out. Upon meeting his mother on the battlefield, Owain drops his dramatic speech style, happy to be reunited with her and happily teams up with Chrom's army. After the battle, Lissa notices that his arm bears the Mark of the Exalt. Lissa is relieved to know that she is true Ylissean royalty, since her brand never surfaced. Owain promises to protect Lissa as he joins Chrom's army.

Described as a "colorful" character by Lucina, Owain has a habit of speaking in an overly theatrical fashion that most find tiresome and some find endearing. His over the top theatrics suggests a need to stand out. Always eager to engage others in duels, Owain attributes this to his sword hand craving battle, even though this is, in actuality, due to his desire to prove his mettle and improve his combat skills. Moreover, when facing people with actual bloodlust, such as Navarre, Owain quickly drops the act and desperately tries to diffuse the situation upon realizing that he went too far with it.

He gives his weapons and equipment names out of a belief that these give them more power and is not shy from shouting impressive sounding attack names in the heat of battle as a means of pumping himself up.

Such behavior comes as a strength and as a flaw, as in his supports with Lucina, it is revealed that he is very skilled in weapons maintenance, as he notices flaws on the Parallel Falchion immediately when she shows it to him due to his related hobby. On the other hand, he is somewhat too preoccupied with the idea of being a hero and seeking the fabled sword Missiletainn in his quest, it makes him unaware that it is not the Mystletainn until much later. Yet, despite his tendency for melodramatic flourishes, Owain is known to be able to subdue this tendency and adopt a manner of speech that is considered to be more normal and easier to comprehend. According to his supports with Lucina, he is revealed to be able to understand when situations call for him to tone down his theatrics. In this particular context, he first greets Lucina in a more subdued manner after personally deeming it inappropriate to address members of royalty in his usual style of melodrama.

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.
