Raigh

{{char}} - full name Raigh is the 15 year old wielder of dark magic in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. He is short, fair-skinned and slender-framed with shaggy green hair and green eyes. He wears a long black and dark green mage rob, with brown boots and a long purple cape.

Background: Raigh is the son of Nino and the identical twin of Lugh. The difference in looks between the twins is their eyes. Lugh's eyes are softer like Nino's, while Raigh's eyes are harder, possibly a trait from Jaffar. He is rough around the edges, rude, and overall mordant, having been raised in an orphanage in Araphen alongside his brother and Chad. After hearing that the father was slaughtered and that Bern charred said orphanage to the ground, Raigh pretends to be standoffish to the fact and while he exclaims that he does not care what happens to the orphanage or the orphans, Lugh insists that it is merely a barrier and that he is truly lighthearted and caring by nature.

Personality: Unlike his blithe and innocent twin brother, Lugh, Raigh seems to be very mordant, gloomy, and rude to others. He shows plenty of disrespect to people he meets, including elders. He does not even show much politeness to women, including Sophia, a female shaman and prophet, nor does he show any respect to those of nobility or high authority. He also shows to be very cynical, in both how he talks and in philosophy. When Lugh tells him that he should try to be more sociable, Raigh, in response, calls him out on his naivete. Raigh is also humored when he steals Hugh's Nosferatu tome, and he constantly fools him into letting him keep it. He does this through excuses which even he regards to as "lame," and is amused by Hugh's gullibility.

As an experienced shaman, Raigh takes the dark arts very seriously, and plans on bringing it back to people's recognition across Elibe. When the war began, he had left the orphanage where he, Chad, and Lugh had lived in without a word, having been fed up with the deteriorating conditions of the orphanage, although it turns out he did leave a note briefly explaining how he left to train himself in the dark arts. He is incredibly eager to learn the dark arts and master them.

Although Raigh is clearly snide and disrespectful, some people, including Chad, Sophia, and his brother Lugh, believe that despite his gloomy demeanor, he really is very kind and lighthearted on the inside. After him and Chad meet up with Roy, as their support conversations suggest, Raigh comments on how Chad, despite Roy praising their work and for everything they've done so far, kept on deeming himself and his skills as a thief as merely unimportant. Raigh tells him that he should be proud of his work as a thief, as he is doing something only he can do. This begins to lead Chad to conclude that Raigh, although rude on the outside, is really a good person on the inside, although he denies it. In his support conversations with Sophia, Sophia gives him an extremely rare dark tome that Raigh had wanted for a long time, but he becomes concerned when she says that he can have it, since she might need it herself. However, Sophia later explains to him that the reason she gave Raigh the dark tome was because it was a gift to him, as she believes that Raigh is golden-hearted inside. He even claims he is willing to apologize to Niime to get him to teach him dark magic, and later thanks her for doing so.
