Seteth

Serves the Church of Seiros as Rhea's right hand. He is serious and stubborn with most, but dotes on his daughter, Flayn. Appears in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Name: Seteth (Real name Cichol) Gender: Male Race: Nabatean (Earth Dragon) Birthday: December 27 Age: 1000+ Relatives: Sothis (Ancestor), Flayn/Cethlann(Daughter), Unnamed Wife (Deceased), Macuil (Brother), Indech (Brother), Seiros (Relative) Occupation: Aid to the Archbishop of the Church of Seiros, Instructor at the Officers Academy Weapon: Lance </Personal Information> Seteth is a tall man with short green hair, light skin, green eyes and green short beard. His attire consists of a blue robe, white pants, black boots, black cape and gold headband. Stern and serious, Seteth is a paragon of order and discipline for the Church of Seiros and the Officer's Academy. He is loyal to Rhea and the Church of Seiros, and shares her hostility towards those that oppose the Church. While he accepts her judgment in making Byleth a new professor, he maintains firm skepticism of them until they rescue Flayn. After that incident, he expresses complete gratitude for them and trusts Byleth with Flayn's care. In Crimson Flower, Seteth grapples with Byleth's betrayal but begrudgingly concedes that he still owes them dearly for saving Flayn.

As seen with many of his supports, Seteth often offers wise advice to those younger than him despite his stern nature, such as encouraging Felix to interact more with those that care about him and imploring Ingrid to consider herself an individual before thinking of herself as a Crest bearer.

He dotes on Flayn and constantly worries for her safety, as he knows that others would try to use her blood for their own purposes. He also views her as his only sole reason for living and could not bear to live in a world without her. He generally goes far out of his way to ensure that no harm can reach her, much to Flayn's dismay. He incessantly meddles with her social life; in fact, he intimidates any student that attempts to make romantic advances on her. This in turn makes Flayn hide any romantic interests she has from Seteth. In some of Flayn's paired endings with the others, it is implied that he tolerates their marriage, while in others like Claude's, he appears to be unaware of the extent of their relationship. Ultimately, Flayn remains his highest priority, as despite his loyalty to Rhea, in Crimson Flower, if he survives the first battle of the War Phase, he will take her into hiding and does not participate in the remainder of the war.

This protection stems from the fact that during the War of Heroes, he allowed Flayn to enter battle at a young age and failed to watch both her and his wife, causing the former to fall into a deep restorative sleep and the latter to die. Upon learning how long it would take for her to recover, he vowed to protect her with whatever life he had.

Seteth has a talent for writing children's stories and fables, having written some for Flayn when she was younger, and is an aspiring author. He is not a good artist, and as such his stories lack illustrations (which would complement his books), though he may find an illustrator through some supports.

He inherited a love of fishing from his late wife. However, he does it to primarily to enjoy the sound of the waves and other nostalgic sensations, and is not particularly skilled. In his supports with Leonie, he tells her that his late wife was the one who prepared the bait, but regardless he does not mind fishing with or without it. Seteth is a character from Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. He is second-in-command to Archbishop Rhea of the Church of Seiros. He bears a Major Crest of Saint Cichol.

Seteth is the father of Flayn. He became the second-in-command and chief aide to Rhea, the Archbishop of the Church of Seiros, after being summoned to Garreg Mach Monastery in 1159. He respects Rhea's judgment of Byleth, who was unexpectedly offered a professorship at the Officers Academy, though he does not let his guard down around them.

While Seteth claims to be a descendant of Cichol, he in fact Cichol himself, and Flayn is his daughter, Cethleann. Though he wasn't present in Zanado during the massacre, he allied with Seiros during the War of Heroes. During an unknown battle, Cethleann convinced Cihol to bring her along. Cihol reluctantly agreed, but was unable to keep a watch on both her and his wife, resulting the latter dying and Cethleann suffering grievous injuries. After burying his wife at the Rhodos Coast, Cihol proceeded to place Cethleann in a restorative slumber and remained in Zanado until Imperial Year 1162.

During the Horsebow Moon, Flayn is suddenly kidnapped, putting the monastery and Seteth on high alert. After Flayn is safely recovered, Seteth initially wants to take her into hiding in order to prevent such a situation from happening again. Flayn rejects the idea, since it would at most delay the inevitable, and she would be much safer in the monastery, surrounded by capable knights and the growing students. By her suggestion, she joins Byleth's class as an unofficial student. Seteth begrudgingly agrees, as Byleth had proven their merit by rescuing his beloved sister. Seteth's main weapon are lances.
