“I am Rinkah! Daughter of the Flame Tribe's honorable Chieftain!”
—Rinkah introducing herself in Chapter 2.

Rinkah is a playable character in Fire Emblem Fates on the Birthright and Revelation routes. Daughter of the Flame Tribe's chieftain, she proudly upholds her tribe's traditions and refuses to conform to the rules of civility.

Profile[]

Rinkah is a fighter born into the Flame Tribe, which exists independent of the kingdom of Hoshido. Following the orders of her father, she provides assistance to the royal family of Hoshido in their struggle against the invasion of Nohr.

Prologue[]

Rinkah first appears in Chapter 2, where she, Kaze and several Hoshidan soldiers are captured as prisoners of war during a skirmish with Nohr. Forced to fight against Corrin by King Garon, Rinkah, undaunted by the challenge facing her, brashly announces her name before jumping into the fray of battle. Despite the best efforts of Rinkah and her allies, they are eventually defeated, whereupon Garon orders Corrin to execute them, an order that they refuse to obey. When Xander's attempt to slay Rinkah and Kaze on Corrin's behalf fails, Leo pretends to execute them by hurting them sufficiently to convince Garon of their demise. Following this, Xander, under the pretext of ordering his subordinates to bring the corpses of Rinkah and Kaze to his private quarters, manages to secretly help them escape from Nohr. Before her departure, Rinkah warns Corrin that their naïveté will eventually prove to be their undoing.

Rinkah next appears at the end of Chapter 3, where she stumbles upon Corrin as they wander across the border into the realm of Hoshido after being warped back to the real world by Lilith. Mistaking them for a random Nohrian soldier, she knocks them out cold and captures them. Taking them back to her abode in the Fire Tribe, she learns that Corrin is the long lost child of Queen Mikoto and nurses them back to health. After spending the night in her home, she and Kaze bring Corrin to the Hoshido siblings, and an emotional family reunion, helps them defend a mountain village from a horde of Faceless in Chapter 4.

Rinkah and Kaze later accompany the siblings to the capital of Hoshido, only to bear witness to the main plaza being blown up by a hooded man, an event that claims the lives of Mikoto and a crowd of Hoshidan civilians in Chapter 5. The arrival of a horde of invisible soldiers on the scene thereafter prompts Rinkah and Kaze to aid the Hoshidan royals in eliminating the plaza of their presence.

After the invisible soldiers are routed, Rinkah continues to remain allied with the Hoshidan forces, electing to accompany them to the Plains of Hoshido to face an incoming Nohrian invasion in Chapter 6. Depending on the choice made by Corrin, Rinkah's involvement in the plot thereafter will be altered.

Birthright[]

Rinkah continues to remain with the Hoshidan army past the events of Chapter 6 and is not involved in the following story chapters.

Rinkah subsequently aids Corrin's effort to put an end to the age-old conflict shared between Hoshido and Nohr. She succeeds her father as the Flame Tribe chieftain thereafter.

Conquest[]

Rinkah retreats with the Hoshidan army after Corrin makes their choice, only appearing again in Notre Sagesse in Chapter 11, where she has allied herself with Hinoka to prevent Corrin's army from reaching the Rainbow Sage. If Rinkah faces Corrin in battle, she will express reluctance at the idea of fighting them, whom she considers her savior, before announcing her intent to defeat them. Despite the best efforts of Rinkah and her allies, they are eventually defeated by Corrin's army. Remarking that the lives of all the Hoshidans have been spared, Rinkah later retreats with her allies on Corrin's fervent urging. Rinkah's fate is unknown when Nohr invades Hoshido as she is not seen again for the rest of this route.

Revelation[]

Rinkah will retreat after Corrin makes their choice, appearing again in the Wind Tribe Village in Chapter 9, where she intervenes in the nick of time just as Fuga decides to decimate their army. Announcing her belief in the righteousness of Corrin's ideals, Rinkah urges Fuga not to turn his blade against Corrin due to misunderstandings and false rumors. When Fuga responds by issuing her a challenge to prove her belief in Corrin, Rinkah, fired up with enthusiasm, joins Corrin to overcome the might of the Wind Tribe.

Rinkah subsequently aids Corrin's effort to put an end to Anankos' machinations. If she marries Male Corrin or Ryoma, she will become the queen of Valla and Hoshido respectively.

Personality[]

As a result of being born as the direct descendant of the Fire Tribe's chieftain, Rinkah has thus been trained since infancy to become a warrior worthy of inheriting the title of chieftain in the future. Stalwart in her dedication to her training, Rinkah constantly strives towards bettering her combat skills, never once permitting herself to be complacent. This fact is reflected through a good number of the supports that she shares with many characters, like Silas and Hinata, where, despite her inclination to isolate herself from others, she readily accepts any challenge that is put forth to her to test her mettle.

The strictness of Rinkah's training has molded her into a paragon of courage and toughness that is unrivaled by almost anyone in the army. Due to this, she thus adopts a no-nonsense policy in her regard of others, and will not hesitate to lash out at anyone for their cowardice. Her supports with Hayato reveal this, where she, in a fit of impatient rage, scolds him for attempting to throw away his vegetables because he considers them too bitter for his liking.

In accordance with her clan’s law of solitude, Rinkah chooses to isolate herself from the rest of her allies, preferring to be in her own company in that of being in others. This fact is proven through a number of her supports like Takumi, Kaden and Keaton, where she expresses annoyance whenever anyone seeks to interact with her. Her C-support with Ryoma, for one, sees her responding to his call for her attention by demanding to know why her Hoshidan allies talk excessively and cannot seem to leave her in peace and quiet.

However, as her support conversations progress, she begins to open up to others. In her A-Support with Jakob she admits that she has begun to enjoy interacting with other members of the army. She also explains that her tribe’s culture values a small number of intimate friendships rather than many casual relationships; something she realizes many of her new allies also value. This new understanding is reflected in other supports, as she begins to initiate conversations with fellow soldiers and even eat alongside them.

Despite her bold personality, Rinkah can become quickly embarrassed while expressing sensitive emotions. During her confession to Male Corrin, she becomes so red-faced and sweaty that he worries she’s caught a fever.

Rinkah has a deep love for food. She typically eats large meals, though she usually made huge messes as a result of never eating with utensils (until Oboro showed her how much more food she could eat with a fork and knife). She abhors the idea of wasting food, to the point that she claims she'll "never forgive" Hayato for throwing away his vegetables-all while eating said vegetables.

As a result of her obstinate maintenance of a stoic demeanor, Rinkah is rather adamant about avoiding any action that would make her appear weak. Her supports with Kaze reveal this, where she initially rudely refuses his offer of candy for fear that her desire for treats may be interpreted as a sign of weakness.

She has the highest body temperature in the army.

Subjective: The following part of this article is based upon the editor's personal experiences and opinions, and therefore may not be applicable for all readers.

Base Class[]

Rinkah possess unusual growths with slightly average Speed and Skill growths and a monstrous Defense growth. While she may not have an excellent Strength growth, her usage of Clubs, which have high base damage, allows Rinkah to perform well as a capable Axe dueling unit. This is further boosted by Personal Skill, Fiery Blood, which boosts her damage by 4 whenever she is injured. She typically has low HP without a Angelic Robe, though this is some offset by her monstrous Defense; it's not uncommon for her to completely shrug off physical Attacks, as she reaches 20 Defense on average at level 20, and her Defense can go up to the 30 as a level 10 advanced unit. Her excellent physical Defense is somewhat offset by her poor Resistance growth which, coupled with the weapon disadvantage against Tomes, Rinkah is not suited to engage mages. She is the only starting Oni Savage in Fates, giving her a certain uniqueness without needing to use a Heart Seal to access the class. Additionally, in Birthright, Rinkah is the only non-Promoted Club-wielder on the Hoshido side, making her the only means of using the weapon without promoting Mozu, Hana, or Hinata into a Master of Arms, reclassing someone into the class set, or waiting until Chapter 13 when Scarlet is recruited. She starts off with Shove to give some slight ally unit repositioning options and Seal Resistance to cripple high Resistance enemy units for Ally magic users to exploit.

Rinkah's two possible promotions are Oni Chieftain and Blacksmith. As an Oni Chieftain, she gains slightly increased growths in Magic and Resistance at the cost of a decreased HP growth. She also gains weapon access to scrolls and tomes. Despite having low base Magic, Rinkah functions as a capable magic user. This is primarily due to enemies in Birthright having staggeringly low physical Resistance, but it's also because pumping Rinkah's Magic is a viable option. With tonics, supports, her personal ability and Spirit Dusts factored in, it's not unusual to bring Rinkah's Magic to respectable levels, making her a powerful and tanky mage. Oni Chieftain provides two skills: Death Blow and Counter. Death Blow is a superb offensive skill that increases the user's critical hit rate by 20 points whenever they initiate. This syncs well with Rinkah's decently high Skill growth and the inherent critical hit bonuses in Clubs, granting her a high chance of dishing out critical damage (especially if she's using a Great Club). Counter is a defensive skill that immediately deals equivalent combat damage from any adjacent foe back at them. Though this skill syncs well with Rinkah's decent Defense as well as Fiery Blood, her lack of consistent HP growth compromises her ability to utilize it without placing herself in grave danger. Overall, Oni Chieftain offers a crucial ranged option and top class offensive skill, making it Rinkah's primary promotion option.

As a Blacksmith, Rinkah gains increased growths in Skill, Luck, and Defense at the cost of decreased growths in Strength and Magic. She also gains access to Katanas, which expands the types of enemies she can setup for her allies. Blacksmith offers two skills: Salvage Blow and Lancebreaker. Salvage Blow is an offensive skill that, when triggered, rewards the user with an iron variant of an enemy's equipped weapon when the user initiates combat and incapacitates them; the activation rate uses the user's Luck as a percentage. To fully utilize this skill, Rinkah may need extensive offensive support (e.g., Fiery Blood, Hinoka's Rallying Cry, damage setup) to gain enough offensive momentum to fell her opponents. Moreover, she will likely see mediocre growths in her Luck, so even when she successfully lands a kill, skill activation may rarely occur. Lancebreaker increases the user's hit and avoid rate by 50 points whenever they battle units equipped with Lances or Naginatas. This augments her reliability to damage and set up lancers for her allies, and it can patch the shaky accuracy of Clubs whenever applicable. As a Blacksmith, Rinkah gains a couple offensive tools to aid her ability to support allies, and her stronger growths are slightly elevated.

Secondary Class[]

Rinkah's secondary class is Ninja and its promotions, Master Ninja and Mechanist. This class line highlights her innate proficiencies in Skill and Speed while dampening her offensive and defensive growths. She gains weapon access to Shurikens and Daggers, which allows her to debuff her opponents in addition to Seal Resistance. Moreover, as Shurikens are ranged weapons, Rinkah can safely initiate combat with Fiery Blood in effect at considerably decreased risk, allowing her to efficiently rack up chip damage for her allies whenever applicable. At base level, this will increase her attacking power from 7 to 11, enabling her to potentially score four-hit KOs against enemy Diviners, Troubadours, and the like. Note, however, that this effect will diminish over time due to her poor Strength growth. As a Ninja, Rinkah gains access to two skills: Locktouch and Poison Strike. Locktouch grants the ability to unlock doors and chests without the need of keys; this opens up utility opportunities for Rinkah on various campaign maps. Poison Strike reduces the enemy's HP by 20% at the end of any combat this user initiates. This skill considerably augments her chip damage, significantly increasing her capabilities as offensive support.

As a Master Ninja, Rinkah gains slightly increased growths in Resistance as well as a 5-point increase to Hit, Avoid, Critical Evade, and Critical Hit Rates. These bonuses complement her decent Skill growth very well, increasing her reliability to hit or even critical hit her enemies for damage setup. She also gains access to Swords and Katanas, which may increase her combative prowess to a negligible degree—especially considering her low Strength growth. Master Ninja provides two skills: Lethality and Shurikenfaire. Lethality is an offensive skill which, when activated, can one-hit-kill enemies during combat; the activation rate uses a fourth of the user's Skill value as a percentage. Although the trigger rate for this skill is generally rare, Rinkah's high Skill growth may allow her to activate Lethality at a slightly greater frequency than others. Even still, it may not be a reliable offensive asset for offensive support. Shurikenfaire is a passive skill that increases the user's damage output by 5 points whenever they equip a Shuriken or Dagger. Should Rinkah's class utilize Shurikens, this skill significantly boosts her damage output and may grant her the power she needs to play a more offensive role. Overall, Master Ninja provides stat bonuses and offensive skills that can augment Rinkah's abilities to deal damage in offensive support.

As a Mechanist, Rinkah gains increased movement and access to Bows and Yumi at the cost of decreased growths in Skill and Speed. She also gains access to Golembane and Replicate. Golembane doubles the users' forecasted attack whenever they're battling Stoneborn, Puppets, or other Mechanists. Because these enemies infrequently appear on maps, this skill is only situationally useful. Replicate, on command, creates a controllable copy, or "Replica", of the user on a tile adjacent to them. Although they move independent of one another, the Replica and its original share stat values and inventory, so any change to either item simultaneously affects both units. This skill drastically increases Rinkah's map presence and thus her ability to provide offensive support. As a Mechanist, Rinkah's increased mobility and access to Replicate grants her the ability to easily and effectively move around the map, significantly augmenting her supportive presence.

Friendship Class[]

  • Oboro: Oboro provide her with Spear Fighter, great for those who chose to finalize her as a Blacksmith, and its promotions, Spear Master and Basara. Rinkah learns Seal Defense, great for reducing the defenses of enemies that try to attack her or to cripple high Defense units like Knights. Swap is good for repositioning ally units behind her and away from enemies so she can tank hits and protect more frail units in front. Spear Master provides Seal Speed to cripple enemies that rely on speed such as Samurais and Ninjas, and Lancefaire to boost her damage output when using Naginatas or Lances in this class or if reclassed to Basara. Basara provides Rend Heaven, a solid attacking skill that boosts her damage when she engages on other enemies. Given Rinkah's lower Strength growths, this skill can make up for it with the boosts she receives. Quixotic is a little risky as it boosts the hit rate of both her self and her enemies by 30 and increases skill activation by 15. She benefits from both boosts as her Skill is average and can allow her to attack higher speed and skill enemies, while boosting her skill activations.
  • Orochi: Orochi provides Diviner, perfect for those focusing on Oni Chieftain, and its promotions, Onmyoji and Basara. Diviner's Magic growth boost makes it the best for giving Rinkah the means to train the stat. Diviner's only useful skill is Future Sight, increasing her EXP gains on occasion which makes it good when training her. Onmyoji further boosts her magic growths and provides Tomefaire guaranteeing that she will always at least inflicts 5 damage to her tome attacks. Basara is explained under Oboro's section above.
  • Charlotte: Charlotte is exclusive to Revelation and provides her with Fighter, keeping her in familiar territory with the classes' focus on Axes, and its promotions, Berserker and Hero. While not nearly as fast or strong as Charlotte, Rinkah has more Defense so if looking for a more sustainable Fighter, she serves as a good alternate. Even if not keeping Rinkah in this class or its promotions, the class' weapons are worth learning for her base class. HP+5 is great for giving her more health to increase her tankiness, Sol can keep her well healed when attacking, and Axefaire increases her Axe-damage. She can also get Gamble which stacks with death blow to get +30 crit but at the cost of -10 hit rate. Fortunately Rinkah can have access to Axebreaker, Quixotic and Lancebreaker to make up the accuracy.

Etymology[]

Rinka (燐火) means "phosphorus light" and is an alternative name for a Kitsunebi, small orbs of flames that Kitsune create in Okinawa lore.

Other alternatives, depending on the kanji, include "林火" meaning "forest fire", "厘花" meaning "thousand flowers", or "凛風" meaning "dignified wind."

Trivia[]

  • Rinkah shares her English voice actress, Stephanie Lemelin, with one of female Corrin's voice sets and Reina.
    • She shares her English voice actress in Heroes, Sara Cravens, with Arete.
  • Rinkah was voted the 23rd most popular female on Nintendo's official Fates character poll.
  • Rinkah's hair is completely white. The mane of red hair billowing out behind her head is actually connected to her Oni face mask. The player can see this either by visiting the hot springs when she is bathing or by giving her a hair accessory. This is also proven if Rinkah marries Male Corrin, as Kana will have white hair instead of red.
  • All of Rinkah's attacks have a unique visual effect (fire in her case). She shares this trait with Flora (ice), Felicia (also ice), and Fuga (wind).
  • Rinkah's official artwork depicts her with a slightly recolored Silver Club.
