“Well, I just... I'm glad you finally saw me! Just try to keep an eye out from now on?”
—Kellam's recruitment quote in Awakening.

Kellam (カラム Karamu, Callum in the Japanese version) is a playable character from Fire Emblem: Awakening. According to the official Japanese website, he is voiced by Manabu Sakamaki.[1] He is voiced by Orion Acaba in the English version.

ProfileEdit

Kellam followed Chrom and his fellow Shepherds to go to Ferox for support. Unfortunately, due to his lack of presence, he is nearly forgotten. At The Longfort, Chrom feels that he is being watched when Kellam "appears" out of nowhere, scaring Chrom. Kellam joins the fray and hopes that Chrom and the others will not forget about him.

After the war, Kellam departs from Ylisse for a long journey, but it would take Chrom and the others several years to notice his disappearance. However, if he is married, he will live a happy life with his family. Though his wife's exploits are well documented, his name will be forever lost.

Kellam's supports reveal that he grew up with five brothers, but his family was very poor, and he never had many commodities that other children had growing up. In a support with Nowi, he mentions that his lack of presence first began when he was younger and still living with his family; since they were poor, they had to share a lot, but he was mean and did not like sharing. Eventually his family got tired of him being so selfish and began ignoring him. Interestingly, only those with animal-like senses, like Nowi and Panne, are able to find him rather easily. In his support with Donnel, Kellam reveals that he and his brothers helped his father out in the fields so he actually has a talent when it comes to harvesting crops.

DLCEdit

Kellam has several conversations with past Fire Emblem characters in DLC. If Kellam talks to Shiida in Champions of Yore, she will use the same lines to try and recruit Kellam like she did with Castor.

When fighting Arden in Lost Bloodlines, both realize they have the same problem of being ignored.

ProfileEdit

Kellam is a frontline fighter of Chrom's Shepherds and is one of the biggest and tallest units in the army. Ironically, he tends to "vanish" suddenly and most people tend to forget about him. His lack of presence causes most people to jump in surprise when he suddenly "appears" out of nowhere. He is somewhat irked about this, but he is used to it. However, several people have found ways to find him. He wears a blank face and rarely speaks and is the tallest person in the army, even when seated. His birthday is June 24th.

OverallEdit

Base ClassEdit

As much as the characters of the games tend to ignore Kellam, Kellam is a formidable unit and should not be, ironically, overlooked. He is the definition of the Draug archetype; sporting a 100% growth rate in HP, and a 70% growth rate in defense, these two stats can grow ridiculously high, making him a very potent physical wall. This makes him an excellent unit to pair up with relatively fragile units, like Lissa or Maribelle. His lack of skill and speed can be compensated for with a good support. However, his movement is a bit low, making him dependent on his paired unit for mobility. He is also weak towards magic users, making him prey for them without a support bonus in resistance. Despite these flaws, once Kellam starts leveling up, he can be an invaluable unit.

For the parent generation, Kellam is the only unit that can promote to a General without reclassing. Kellam will hold an incredible 51 and 53 strength and defense stat caps making him a physical tank. However, in trade for this high cap, Kellam's Speed and Resistance are left down in the 30's. However, with modest skill and luck ratings, Kellam can avoid some criticals and activate a few of his own. Pavise will make him even harder to take down physically and even stop some Armorslayers and Hammer damage. Great Knight Kellam will slightly drop his strength and defense while balancing out his other stats while giving him more mobility. Kellam is near point for point with Frederick in this class for their caps. Luna, given Kellam's modest skill stat, is a great attack skill for him to use. Dual Guard+ is also a great skill for Kellam to have when in Pair Ups given his high defense rating making him a good defense unit for those who need the protection

ReclassingEdit

Kellam's two reclassing options are the Thief and Priest classes. Kellam can make a useful thief due to his high defense growth of 60% which is much higher then the default thief, Gaius, though Gaius is faster and more skillful than he is. Assassin Kellam has excellent mobility and can learn Lethality to kill non-boss characters and Pass which will allow him to sneak past enemies to let him swarm enemies which could provide some extra mobility in certain cases. As a Trickster, Kellam can learn Lucky Seven making him harder to hit during most maps, and Acrobat to give him some mobility on Sand Maps and other terrains.

As a Priest, Kellam has high defenses though with his low magic growths, his healing will lack potency, even if he were to learn Healtouch. Miracle, though, can be a potential lifesaver though should Kellam be attacked by mages. It is nearly pointless to make Kellam a Sage as nearly every other person who has Sage as their promotion has better magic growths than he does though his high defense growths does give him some leeway. However it cannot be ignored that with his low magic and no useful skills for him to learn from this class to use in any of his other ones, Kellam has little business in this class. Luckily his other priest promotion, War Monk, is a bit more useful since they rely on Axes which, given his good strength growth, is a great way for him to rank up his Axe weapon levels. His stat caps as a War Monk are the most balanced among all of his classes. Renewal is his only regeneration skill and he will learn this from this class, a good skill for any class that Kellam ends up as.
