“Sir Seliph... I can't tell you how long I've waited for your arrival. Sir, please... save the world from despair. Too many people have given up hope as it is. Manster had a great number of children seized and sent to the shrine in Miletos. I was unable to prevent it... I'm no hero, sir. I'm a coward if anything.”
—Ced in Genealogy of the Holy War

Ced (セティ Seti, Sety in the Japanese version) is a playable character from Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War and Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. He is the leader of the Magi Squad, the brother of Fee, and the eldest son of Ferry. According to the events of Thracia 776, his father is Lewyn; he is thus a descendant of the crusader Sety, and inherits the tome of Forseti from his father. He is considered "Ced the Hero" for fighting against the empire and trying to stop the Child Hunts conducted by the Lopto Sect.

His substitute character is Hawk in Genealogy of the Holy War.

Personality

Ced is an extremely selfless person who lives for the people around him, and is more than willing to lend a hand to anyone in distress. This might prove to be a flaw of his though, as he winds up neglecting his own family in the process, causing him to be unable to see his mother off on her deathbed. Furthermore, he is also very humble, to the point of self-deprecation, as can be seen when he reproaches himself for being a "coward", despite having played a significant role in stopping the child hunts, among other things.

Much like his sister, Ced is also furious at Lewyn for letting their mother die while waiting for him to return to Silesse, although he is slightly more forgiving than Fee is.

Overall

Coming as a very powerful pre-promoted Sage, Ced is a solid unit, and will remain so regardless of who his father is.

He is one of three potential Forseti users, and of them, he is the strongest due to him having the highest stat caps. Additionally, unlike the others, he inherits the Pursuit skill from his mother, meaning that the Pursuit Ring can be passed down to someone who needs it more than he does, such as Patty or Leif. For this reason alone, he is most often made the Forseti user, as this skill comes in handy when dealing with formidable opponents such as Burian, Meng, Maybell, and Bleg.

Conversations

In Chapter 8, Seliph can recruit Ced if he speaks to him.

In Chapter 8, if Lewyn is Ced's father, Ced may speak to Seliph, and he will gain three points of luck.

In Chapter 8, if Fee speaks to Ced, she will gain one point of luck.

In the Final Chapter, if Teeny and Ced are lovers, she may speak to him, and he will gain three points of magic.

Overall

With great bases, unparalleled growths in Magic, Skill, and Speed, and the Forseti tome, which bestows a massive +20 Speed and Skill to the wielder, Ced is immediately one of the strongest members of your team upon joining.  Additionally, with an A rank in staves, he is a potent healer as well.  However, his HP and defense are not particularly high, so be careful putting in range of too many enemy units, although he will rarely be hit with Forseti equipped.

Ending

Ced - Holy Warrior of the Winds (風の聖戦士 Kaze no seisen-shi)

Upon returning to Silesse, Ced gave in to his people's yearning for his leadership and took the throne. Thanks to his hard work and unbending will, the trampled land of Silesse slowly, but surely, began to regain its former beauty.

Quotes

“This is it... Mother...Fee... Take care...of Silesia...”
—Ced's death quote in Thracia 776.

Recruitment in Genealogy of the Holy War

Seliph: Ced, nice job taking care of the residents of Manster. You're a hero!
Ced: Sir Seliph... I can't tell you how long I've waited for your arrival. Sir, please... save the world from despair. Too many people have given up hope as it is. Manster had a great number of children seized and sent to the shrine in Miletos. I was unable to prevent it... I'm no hero, sir. I'm a coward if anything.
Seliph: Ced, I wouldn't have gotten anywhere had I been on my own! It was everybody's combined strength that brought us this far. Ced, we could use you on our side. Would you consider joining up with us?
Ced: With honour, Sir Seliph. I'll fight for you till the very end!

Trivia

• From his in-game portrait, Ced appears to be heterochromic, as his closer eye appears to be green, while the other appears to be brown.
• Due to a bug in the game, when Lewyn is Ced's father, assuming Lewyn and Ferry to be level thirty by the end of Chapter 5, Ced's speed loops around the stat cap, causing it to be lower than with other fathers.
• Another bug involving Ced with Lewyn as a father is that if the player hasn't reseted the game, he will join with a speed of 30 (and an effective speed of 47), but if the game is reset, his speed will drop down to 17, it's base stat, no matter what level Ced was when the game was reset.

Etymology

Ced's Japanese name, Sety, was named after Sety, one of the Twelve Crusaders.

His translated name, 'Ced', is usually short for Cedric of which the name Cedric was unintentionally created by Sir Walter Scott in his Ivanhoe character Cedric the Saxon when he misspelled the name Cerdic. Cerdic was a sixth-century Saxon leader and the first king of Wessex.
