Silas

A newly appointed Nohrian knight and Corrin's childhood friend. Often asked for advice. Appears in Fire Emblem Fates. Name: Silas Gender: Male Race: Human Birthday: November 1 Relatives: Unnamed Parents, Sophie (Future daughter) Occupation: Nohrian Knight Weapon: Lances </Personal Information> Silas is a slim young man with light skin, slicked up gray hair and gray eyes. He wears a full body knight armor with black and dark blue colors. He also wears a short dark gray cape. Silas is very easy-going and selfless, indiscriminately expressing a willingness to lend a helping hand to those in need. This fact can be derived across the vast majority of his supports; in his A-level support with Charlotte, for one, he insists on discussing the convoluted nature of her adolescence as a means to help her overcome the insecurities that are intrinsic to her personality. His supports with Jakob further sheds light on Silas' altruistic intentions, one that sees him revealing a stark discomfort at playing the role of confidant; when mocked for constantly seeking to aid others, Silas responds by admitting to feeling depressed when listening to their woes, owing to his inability to find the right advice to give them all the time.

Although he wants to help people better themselves, he can also be very opinionated and a surprisingly harsh critic, occasionally being insulting without intending to come across as such. His remarks about the various activities Kagero is doing in their Supports come across as vindictive (such as his comments about her art being "monstrous"), while his C Support with Hana has him technically insult her battle prowess by saying she was underwhelming and that Sakura deserves a better retainer.

Silas claims that his oath as a knight means more to him than anything else, even his own life. The reason he's okay with defecting is because he took that oath for Corrin's sake, so not defecting would actually have broken it more. His supports with Oboro also mention him going out of his way to save enemy civilians, and his supports with Hinoka reveal he lets enemies who surrender flee.

He is utterly devoted to Corrin above all else. He spent years working his way into the Nohrian army to become a knight in order to be reunited with them, and is willing to betray his country just to stick by their side.

Despite Silas' love for rendering assistance to the needy, he only does so out of a steadfast loyalty to Corrin; depending on the path chosen by Corrin, Silas will only be able to provide support to those who pledge allegiance to their cause. Silas is a fledgling Knight of the Kingdom of Nohr and child of a Nohrian noble family, having known Corrin since childhood and considers them his best friend. One day, Silas decided to bring Corrin out of the Northern Fortress on a picnic. However, he was caught by the guards and was nearly executed if not for Corrin's strong opposition. Instead, he was banished from the fortress, but never forgot his friend. Silas decided to enlist in the Nohrian army, knowing that it was the best way to meet his friend again.

In the future, he would have a daughter named Sophie. Silas uses lances as his main weapon.
