“Well, Alm. I've got a favor to ask of you. From today on, won't you act as our leader?”
—Clive in Gaiden

Clive (クレーベ Kurēbe, Clerbe in the Japanese version and Cleive or Kreb in the fan translations) is a playable character in Fire Emblem Gaiden and its remake, Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. He is the original leader of the Deliverance, and the brother of Clair.

In Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, he is voiced by Hiroshi Kamiya in the Japanese version.

Profile

Clive, a young man of the upper aristocracy and a social knight, is the leader of the Deliverance. He was originally an knight of the Order of the Zofia, but with the rebellion of the president Desaix, he founded the Deliverance.

Being harassed by Desaix's forces, Clive and the Deliverance were forced to take refuge in a cursed graveyard, making the haunted grounds a makeshift headquarters. When Alm and his army fought their way through the monsters, they met up with Clive and Forsyth. Clive, disappointed that Mycen would not join the rebellion and take the position of leader, insists that Alm becomes the new leader. After the war, he was given command of the newly formed knighthood of Valentia and married Mathilda.

Overall

Clive is average. He's not really a bad unit, but everyone else of the same class winds up better than or as good as him, even Pre-Promoted units like Mycen and Zeak. His only real benefit is that none of his stats or growths are truly terrible, so he's unlikely to wind up with lopsided stats. At the same time none of them are particularly good, which means he'll usually never wind up being an outstanding unit. If you didn't promote any Villagers to Cavalier in Alm's route, Clive will act as one of your highest mobility characters for a time. But once you recruit Mathilda, Clive becomes clearly outclassed since his only real advantage over her is HP.
