Fire Emblem 1: Ankoku Ryuu To Hikari No Tsurugi (Dark Dragon and Sword of Light) Character FAQ Version 0.97 By Juigi Table of contents 1. Introduction 2. Version notes 3. Characters 4. Character growth notes 5. Credits (Copied directly from AstroBlue's FFTA FAQ.) ****************************************************************************** This FAQ uses Shift-JIS encoding to display Japanese kana (characters).

Introduction ======================================== Hello. In case you don't go to the GameFAQ Boards and haven't seen my contributor info or Fire Emblem 6 Support FAQ, I am Juigi, elder half of the Kario Brothers, who are ripoffs of the Mario Brothers (from the Mario series). My email address is juigikario@yahoo.com . (Yep, it's changed. Don't bother sending emails to figaro_brothers@hotmail.com or juigi@lycos.co.uk .) But enough of that. Fire Emblem is a Strategy RPG series that has yet to be in America. So why are Marth (from Fire Emblem 1 and 3) and Roy (from Fire Emblem 6) in Super Smash Bros. Melee? Because SSBM was made in Japan. Both characters were the Lord/Leader of an army in their respective games, so they needed to survive for you to avoid Game Over. In any case, this FAQ is actually a sub-FAQ for my main FAQ/Walkthrough. It will already be big enough with the Walkthrough alone. The things I was planning to include, one of which being the Character lists, would make the thing too big. So I'm reducing the size of the main FAQ. Besides, if I put up several Fire Emblem FAQs at once, Fire Emblem should become more popular. :D Oh yeah, about me: *RN: Not publically disclosed *A/S/L: 19 as of July 9/M/San Pablo (SF Bay Area), CA *How to contact me: -Email: juigi@lycos.co.uk -AOL: Juigi Kario -YIM: Not disclosed -MSN: figaro_brothers@hotmail.com -ICQ: Not used *Major GameFAQ contributions: Fire Emblem 1 FAQs (3-part Walkthrough, Basic and Mechanics FAQ, Character FAQ, Class FAQ, Item/Weapon FAQ, Shop/Arena FAQ, and Talis Quest Walkthrough) and FE6 Support FAQ And by the way, DO NOT SEND THE FOLLOWING TO MY EMAIL ADDY OR IM ME WITH THE FOLLOWING: *Anything over half a Megabyte without me approving of it first. My box is getting spam often enough as it stands. *Flames. They will not be tolerated. You will instead get counterflamed AND blocked. *Criticism unless it is good enough. Since it is harsh enough on its own, it won't be tolerated either, but you'll just be blocked. *Spam. I get enough of it already. You'll be counterspammed, flamed, AND blocked all at once, and if you think of blocking me first, I'll report you to your email service if you do this. *Prejudice. Yes, I am listing this and I'm sick of it to no end. Long story. If you decide to be prejudiced, you'll be reported. *Any information I find/know to be false. You will be malleted as a warning, and if you continue, you'll be blocked as well. *Any unreasonable attempts to be funny. This includes but is not limited to "I can't get in the FAQ. Get in it for me, Juigi", "I have a suggestion: EVERYBODY dies", and such. None of that is funny, and instead, you will be blocked on the spot if you even try. Excuse me if I'm being harsh; I just don't want any trouble. Strict? That I have no problem with. If you want to report anything though, do so, but be nice about it. Now, without further ado, onto the FAQ! Japanese text addition notes: all Japanese characters are assumed to be 2 characters long. In addition, I'm using "tu", "ti", and "si" in place of "tsu", "chi", and "shi" respectively in case you're confused. Small vowels are abbreviated as they would be in Romanji, so "jiyo" with "yo" being a small vowel becomes "jo." FYI, this applies only with "shi", "ji", and "chi" because they're the only convertable ones. ======================================== 2. Version notes ======================================== *Version 0.97 (9/11/2004) - Put all starting stats and growths onto tables. Removed estimates. Also added a couple of my comments. Still missing some. Since it's been 3 years exactly since the 9/11 incident, don't forget to think of the people who died in said indicent. *Version 0.92 (8/4/2003) - Some growth rates added. New section added and very incomplete. Personal info added. *Version 0.91 (4/24/2003) - Navigation made slightly easier. *Version 0.9 (4/22/2003) - Starting Items done. Now only growth rates and final stat estimations are missing. *Version 0.61 (4/10/2003) - Items for Maria and Minerva added. Mistakes in estimations haven't been bothered with yet. *Version 0.6 (3/2/2003) - FAQ started. Missing growth rates for people obtained past Chapter 8 as well as final estimation for most characters. ======================================== 3. Characters ======================================== ---------------------------------------- Marth (マルス) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Prince of Altea and leader of the revolt against the Dark Dragon. *Class: Lord *My comments: Marth is the one Lord in the whole game. I have no personal comments so see Lord protection advice in my Class FAQ. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 1 ---------------------------------------- Kain (カイン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Loyal Social Knight lackey of Marth. Relies a bit on power. *Class: Social Knight *My comments: Kain is the first of the Kain characters. He's semi powerful but somewhat slow so have him use light weapons and don't worry about strength. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 1 ---------------------------------------- Abel (アベル) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Another loyal Social Knight lackey of Marth, also Kain's brother. Relies a bit on Speed. *Class: Social Knight *My comments: Abel is the first of the Abel characters. He is the opposite of Kain because his speed is good but his strength is inferior. He'll have less of a problem with using Spears or other powerful weapons because weight and hit rate are both less of a problem. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 1 ---------------------------------------- Jeigan (ジェイガン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Marth's toughest starting ally and also his second-in-command. Old man so his growth rates aren't exactly good...... *Class: Paladin *My comments: Jeigan is the first of the Jeigan characters. Jeigan characters are pretty good at the start but in the long run, their usefulness is just....yuck. Don't rely on Jeigan too much; I wouldn't and certainly a lot of people wouldn't. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 1 ---------------------------------------- Doga (ドーガ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Armored troop of Marth's. *Class: Armor Knight *My comments: Doga is somewhat like Jeigan, but at least he's fairly better. He's better as a roadblock though. Again, don't rely on him too much, but feel free to rely on him a bit. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 1 ---------------------------------------- Gordan (ゴードン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Archer ally of Marth's. *Class: Archer *My comments: Gordan is lousy until he promotes. He'll have a job doing damage like Kashim can. Keep him safe from melee attacks. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 1 ---------------------------------------- Sheeda (シーダ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Princess of Talis. The one who warns Marth about the Garuda Pirates. *Class: Pegasus Knight *My comments: Sheeda's somewhat lopsided. Speed, Skill, and Luck should SERIOUSLY expect to be maxed out, and Defense and Strength become decent at promotion. Just worry about Strength, HP, and her weakness vs. Bow attacks. *Obtained by: You start with her during Chapter 1 ---------------------------------------- Riff (リフ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Healer from Talis island's west village. *Class: Cleric *My comments: I thought before he was a Jeigan. But in fact, he's the best candidate for promoting a Magic user the first time when you think about it. His HP growth is part of the reason...... *Obtained by: Visiting the west village on Talis Island (Chapter 1) ---------------------------------------- Oguma (オグマ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Captain of the guards in Talis. *Class: Mercenary *My comments: This guy is NOT a Jeigan, even though his starting stats will probably make you drool considering how far you are when you get him. In fact, he's the first of the Ogumas, who start great and stay great to the bitter end, and Oguma, being the original, is NO exception to this. I'd love to see Marth EVER catch up with Oguma in Skill OR Speed without item help, even if Ogy doesn't promote. Oguma will still have problems with Physical Defense and Strength, but once he's promoted, he'll be a battlefield behemoth. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 2 ---------------------------------------- Saji (サジ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Strongest of the Axe brothers. Loyal to Oguma like his brothers. *Class: Axeman *My comments: While this loyal lackey of Oguma's can't exactly crush Dolua, he can still crush a whole army of Armor Knights, although he'd still need some help doing so. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 2 ---------------------------------------- Maji (マジ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Fastest of the Axe brothers. Loyal to Oguma like his brothers. *Class: Axeman *My comments: Just make sure this second loyal lackey of Oguma's doesn't let multipe melee weapon using enemys strike him because often he'll just strike them down letting even more enemies smack him around until he dies. You'd have to be careful when using him, but at least he'll gain 1 HP on each level up. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 2 ---------------------------------------- Barts (バーツ) ---------------------------------------- Background: Toughest of the Axe brothers. Loyal to Oguma like his brothers. Class: Axeman *My comments: Few people like Oguma's lackeys at all, and suggest that this second-in-command of Oguma's troops is the only one that should be used should any of them be used at all. I, however, find them all useful because they can use Hammers and also dish out AND take heavy damage anyway. The problem is the bad hit rate AND the high weight of the Axes. Barts's stats are decent, yes, and his growth rate makes his chances of keeping up with Arena pests in EVERY area higher than about anybody else's. Benching both Saji and Maji without test runs is still not a good idea though. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 2 ---------------------------------------- Daros (ダロス) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Leader of a group of pirates. Waits for Marth to let him clean up his soul. *Class: Pirate *My comments: ANOTHER Jeigan. Geez. Everybody in the whole game seems to be a Jeigan. Well, Daros's stats are far from impressive at the get-go but he can walk across the seas. Not a useful ability it seems but nobody really plays strategically these days or else AW's Olaf would be more liked. Daros's growth rates make things worse. No Skill growth will give him serious problems in hitting his target. *Obtained by: Letting him talk to Marth, he's in Garuda Port (Chapter 2) ---------------------------------------- Kashim (カシム) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Hunter hailing from Talis who helps the Garuda Pirates just to help his sick mother by getting needed money. *Class: Hunter *My comments: Although this poor guy is nothing compared to a promoted Gordon or maybe a promoted Thomas, Kashim is still great. Question his Strength growth at all or his Skill and Speed growths compared to fellow bow users and you may find yourself regretting it. He's even exceptional with his defense capabilities, though only judging by Hunter standards; if he's at L20 and you give him a Dragon Shield, most likely he can survive against a Critical L3 Hand Spear Paladin hit, an L7 Horseman Steel Bow strike, and an L5 Horseman Steel Bow strike. Nothing impressive, but it proves that he, like all other units from Talis, can be VERY useful. *Obtained by: Talking to him with Sheeda, he's in Garuda Port (Chapter 2) ---------------------------------------- Julian (ジュリアン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Theif who tries to help Rena escape Navarre and his group as your army comes around. Has a crush on Rena. *Class: Theif *My comments: This is the first of the Julians. Julians are Theives who are horrible at first but they become fairly impressive. Julian, however, fails to impress me like FE6's Chad did at all, despite being the original. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 3, he's trying to run away from Navarre ---------------------------------------- Rena (レナ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Healer from Macedonia who was trying to heal sick people in the Devil Mountains and got captured, but escaped with help from Julian, who she has a crush on. *Class: Cleric *My comments: Well, well. At least she's better than Riff except for her inability to get HPs on any level ups, but there's one problem: her only two real strengths over Riff are her higher Luck and Speed and her ability to use the Hammerne Wand. She's still more reliable though, but I wouldn't count Riff out for anything..... *Obtained by: You start with her during Chapter 3, she's trying to run away from Navarre ---------------------------------------- Navarre (ナバール) ---------------------------------------- Background: Leader of a group of Theives in the Devil Mountains. Doesn't like to attack women or children..... Class: Mercenary *My comments: He's the first of the Navarres, who are the rivals of the Ogumas. This doesn't mean that Navarre will start and stay great but he does anyway, and since he's the original, why shouldn't he? *Obtained by: Talking to him with Sheeda, he's in the Devil Mountains (Chapter 3) ---------------------------------------- Matis (マチス) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Front line knight of Macedonia. Rena's older sister. *Class: Social Knight *My comments: He's not somebody many people who play FE like at all. Heck, he'll only be average in usefulness at best. Still, you have another Social Knight to command, so don't complain to me saying that Matis sucks. *Obtained by: Talking to him with Rena, he's in the Orleans Prarie (Chapter 4) ---------------------------------------- Maric (マリク) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Magician who is friends with Marth and in love with Marth's sister, Ellis. *Class: Magician *My comments: Ah ha ha! Now you have somebody who can fire enemies, and when I say fire enemies, I mean fire enemies. Even Generals have only HPs to fight off magic with, since few units, let alone enemies, have a speck of Magic Defense. *Obtained by: Visiting the north village in the Orleans Prarie (Chapter 4) ---------------------------------------- Hardin (ハーディン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Social Knight leader of the Orleans Soldier Team. *Class: Social Knight *My comments: This guy is, ability wise, a Social Knight version of Oguma. Don't raise him first though; he starts at a higher level than his lackeys, which hurts his usefulness. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 5, he's across the river west of your troops ---------------------------------------- Roshi (ロシェ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Hardin's toughest lackey, member of the Orleans Soldier Team. *Class: Social Knight *My comments: This guy can surpass his own leader, but he's still no Oguma. Good to have around though. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 5, he's across the river west of your troops ---------------------------------------- Birak (ビラク) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Other Social Knight of the Orleans Soldier Team. *Class: Social Knight *My comments: Birak won't be as great as Roshi, but a Social Knight is a Social Knight. If you want to use him, that's your choice. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 5, he's across the river west of your troops ---------------------------------------- Wolf (ウルフ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Tougher of the two Bow Knights of the Orleans Soldier Team. *Class: Bow Knight *My comments: This bow user cannot promote so use him while he's still useful. He'll likely be surpassed by Gordan eventually. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 5, he's across the river west of your troops ---------------------------------------- Zagaro (ザガロ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Other Bow Knight of the Orleans Soldier Team. *Class: Bow Knight *My comments: Use this Bow Knight carefully; Uluf will likely keep ahead of him, and Zagaro also cannot promote. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 5, he's across the river west of your troops ---------------------------------------- Wendel (ウェンデル) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Maric's teacher. Wants Garnef overthrown more than Marth would. *Class: Priest *My comments: YET ANOTHER Jeigan. Stats aren't bad but the problem is he's already promoted, and may find himself being surpassed by his own student. *Obtained by: Letting him talk to Marth or Maric, he's in the Orleans Kingdom (Chapter 5) ---------------------------------------- Ricard (リカード) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Julian's Godbrother, jailed by Macedonia for attempting stealing. *Class: Theif *My comments: This guy is not as good as his Godbrother. Still, you have another Theif so don't complain about his stats. If you grow tired of his low Weapon Level, just give him the Manual...... *Obtained by: Letting him talk to Marth or having Julian talk to him, he's in the cell in Orleans Castle (Chapter 6) ---------------------------------------- Banut (バネトゥ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Mamkute traveling to find his granddaughter Tiki *Class: Mamkute *My comments: And here's another Jeigan. However, he's still VERY useful because of the insane defense he'll have when he's armed with a Fire Dragon Stone, that and he also does heavy damage with it. If you want, though, go ahead and bench him once you get Tiki. *Obtained by: Visiting the village in Lefcandy (Chapter 7) ---------------------------------------- Shiza (シーザ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: One of the two guards of Warren. Shiza is tough, but has somewhat low potential. *Class: Mercenary *My comments: A part Jeigan, Shiza starts out better than Raddy but Raddy will pass him up guaranteed. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 8, he's just within Warren. ---------------------------------------- Raddy (ラディ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: The other guard of Warren. Raddy is not as tough as Shiza at first but he has more potential. *Class: Mercenary *My comments: This guy can match Oguma. But I'd still go for Oguma because you likely have already leveled him up by now and he can max out all stats except Defense and Luck which he beats Raddy at anyway. Still, beef him up and keep him around if you want. *Obtained by: You start with him during Chapter 8, he's just within Warren. ---------------------------------------- Roger (ロジャー) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Leader of an Armor Knight squad from Grunia who tries attacking Warren. He lost his parents, probably at an early age..... *Class: Armor Knight *My comments: And here's another Jeigan. He's a great roadblock, albeit not as good as Banut, but people are bound to surpass him in his own strength eventually......... *Obtained by: Talking to him with Sheeda, he's leading the Grunian Armor Knight squad patrolling the area near Warren (Chapter 8) ---------------------------------------- George (ジョルジュ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Sniper from Akanea's armies. He's the resident of a village in Prady. *Class: Sniper *My comments: *Obtained by: Visiting the village in Prady (Chapter 9) ---------------------------------------- Maria (マリア) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Sister of Minerva and brother of Michael. She is being held hostage so that Minerva must fight Altea. *Class: Cleric *My comments: Okay. She is more difficult to raise. It may not even be worth the effort either. While you have another Healer, once your other magic users are promoted, bench her. *Obtained by: Letting her talk with Marth, she's in the cell in the fort of Deals (Chapter 10) ---------------------------------------- Minerva (ミネルバ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Brother of Michael, sister of Maria, and princess of Macedonia. She cares about her sister mostly. *Class: Dragon Knight *My comments: Your only Dragon Knight before the middle of Chapter 19, Minerva can be fairly handy in picking off enemies. Unfortunately, she's part Jeigan too. How many Jeigan-like people are in this game? Argh! *Obtained by: Letting her talk with Marth, you have to get Maria on your side first, she appears in Lefcandy (Chapter 7) but retreats then, and reappears in Deal (Chapter 10) where you recruit her. ---------------------------------------- Linda (リンダ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Daughter of Miroa, one of Akanea's 3 Great Priests (the other two being Gato and Garnef). She ran away as her father was killed by Garnef, and was later captured in disguise of a boy by Norda's Slave Market. *Class: Magician *My comments: *Obtained by: Visiting the "Village" in Bares (Chapter 11) ---------------------------------------- Jake (ジェイク) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Shooter following Grunia and in love with a girl named Anna...... *Class: Magician *My comments: *Obtained by: Talking to him with Sheeda, he's with the Grunian troops around Bares (Chapter 11) ---------------------------------------- Medea (ミディア) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Leader of a captured rebellion that tried to liberate Bares. *Class: Paladin *My comments: *Obtained by: You start with her in Chapter 12, she's in the cell with her 4 allies ---------------------------------------- Tomth (トムス) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Medea's better Armor Knight and part of her captured rebellion. *Class: Armor Knight *My comments: *Obtained by: You start with him in Chapter 12, he's one of Medea's 4 allies ---------------------------------------- Michelan (ミシェラン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Medea's other Armor Knight and part of her captured rebellion *Class: Armor Knight *My comments: *Obtained by: You start with him in Chapter 12, he's one of Medea's 4 allies ---------------------------------------- Thomas (トームス) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Medea's Archer ally and part of her captured rebellion *Class: Archer *My comments: Well, you already trained Gordan and probably are ready to promote him, but since you can't promote anybody else with the Orion's Bolt, you might as well use Thomas. *Obtained by: You start with him in Chapter 12, he's one of Medea's 4 allies ---------------------------------------- Boa (ボア) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Medea's advisor and part of her captured rebellion *Class: Priest *My comments: FINALLY! The LAST of the dang Jeigans. Sadly, his growths are PATHETIC, and he'll only beat Wendel in Skill and Speed if anything unless you had suffered bad mojo with Wendel. Use him STRICTLY as backup if anything until your other magic users are up to pace. *Obtained by: You start with him in Chapter 12, he's one of Medea's 4 allies ---------------------------------------- Beck (ベック) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Resident of a village near Gra *Class: Shooter *My comments: *Obtained by: Visiting the village in Gra (Chapter 13) ---------------------------------------- Astoria (アストリア) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Swordsmaster helping Grunia's forces in Gra, has a relationship with Medea *Class: Hero *My comments: *Obtained by: Talking to him with Medea, he's in Gra (Chapter 13) ---------------------------------------- Paola (パオラ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Eldest Pegasus Sister *Class: Pegasus Knight *My comments: *Obtained by: Letting her talk with Marth when she appears just outside Gra Castle (Chapter 14) ---------------------------------------- Katua (カチュア) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Middle Pegasus Sister. *Class: Pegasus Knight *My comments: *Obtained by: Letting her talk with Marth when she appears just outside Gra Castle (Chapter 14) ---------------------------------------- Aran (アラン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Former Paladin captain of Altea. He's not in good terms with his neighbor Samson. *Class: Paladin *My comments: *Obtained by: Visiting the west village in Altea (Chapter 16), this village automatically locks without Aran joining if you visit the east village instead ---------------------------------------- Samson (サムソン) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Heroic fighter for Altea. He's not in good terms with his neighbor Aran. *Class: Hero *My comments: *Obtained by: Visiting the east village in Altea (Chapter 16), this village automatically locks without Samson joining if you visit the west village instead ---------------------------------------- Chainy (チェイニー) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Strange being captured by Grunians occupying Altea *Class: Commando *My comments: *Obtained by: Letting him talk with Marth, he is in a prison in Altea (Chapter 16) ---------------------------------------- Est (エスト) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Youngest Pegasus Sister. *Class: Pegasus Knight *My comments: Her above average growth rates shouldn't be too surprising, because she comes in fairly late anyway, which limits her usefulness. *Obtained by: Letting her talk with Marth, she comes in the Rahman area (Chapter 18) ---------------------------------------- Tiki (チキ) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Granddaughter of Banut and princess of Narga. She loves her grandfather enough that she may break her hypnotism..... *Class: Mamkute *My comments: Thought Banut was good? Well Tiki is basically a small and female Ultra-Banut, making Banut himself look like a JOKE. She's one of the last troops to join your ranks though, but she might serve some usefulness. *Obtained by: Talking to her with Banut, she guards the Throne in the Rahman Temple (Chapter 19) ---------------------------------------- Lawrence (ロレンス) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Grunia General who hates the Dolua-Grunia alliance. He knows Talis's King....... *Class: General *My comments: *Obtained by: Talking to him with Sheeda, he's in Grunia (Chapter 20) ---------------------------------------- Ellis (エリス) ---------------------------------------- *Background: Marth's sister. She was captured by Garnef to let Marth escape to Talis. *Class: Cleric *My comments: She comes in too late in the game to be of very much assistance. However, if you manage to get her promoted, she'll be a nice addition for Chapter 25. Don't forget to have her use her Oum Wand at the altar in Chapter 24 to bring back a long lost friend...... *Obtained by: You get her right at the end of Chapter 23 ---------------------------------------- Gato (ガトー) ---------------------------------------- *Background: One of the 3 great Priests. He hates humans for their stupidity and weakness, but his hate could be driven out by Marth....... *Class: Priest *My comments: Unfortunately, you get this great old guy so late in the game that he's only useful if your army still stinks after a full 24 out of 25 chapters. If that's the case, though, only Medeus and his Magic Mamkute guard will have nothing to fear from him, since anybody else who dares take him on will most likely get ripped apart. And don't forget to use his Reserve Wand if needed. BTW, Gato has the same growth ratings as Ellis if you didn't know. Not that it matters much at all....... *Obtained by: You start with him on Chapter 25 (the final Chapter) |==========================================================================| |Name

======================================== 4. Credits ======================================== I must thank the members of the FESS Board at http://fessforum.proboards11.com/index.cgi for their help, especially the Fireemblem.net post. I'd like to thank Fireemblem.net anyway, because they provide information, albeit in Japanese. I'd like to thank Nintendo, and Intelligence Systems for this game AND SSBM, and anybody else involved in making SSBM, since SSBM is pretty much the reason why I even play Fire Emblem games in the first place. I'd also like to thank http://www.solon.org/cgi-bin/j-e for helping me translate some of the things, and the Kana Books by James W. Heisig for letting me navigate through the Kana. I'd also like to thank Fire Emblem 3 (the game) for helping me find out about the Red Dragon Stone among other things, and the FE3 FAQ writer for help on FE3 as well. And give a good hand to AdamantNo1 for his Fire Emblem shrine at RPGC. The address of the shrine is http://tartarus.rpgclassics.com/~fe1/ This is copyright 2002 Juigi and any of the sources. If I find out you've been copying or selling this without permission or doing any other illegal stuff involving this, you're gone!
