“Your father's life-long dream was to see the war torn Thracia Peninsula united. You must keep his dream alive, for you are the only one who can pull it off now.”
—Finn

Finn (フィン, translated Fin in the Japanese versions) is a playable character from Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War and Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. He is a knight of Leonster, who once served Quan in the events of Generation 1. He is the only character in Genealogy of the Holy War who appears as a playable character in both Sigurd and Seliph's tales.

Finn was in Leonster during the massacre of the Battle of Belhalla, and this essentially saved his life, allowing him to flee Leonster with young Leif, whom he had sworn to protect. During the intermission, he raises Leif on the behalf of Quan and Ethlyn, and Nanna on the behalf of Raquesis.

In Thracia 776, it is hinted that Finn spends three years looking for Raquesis after the events of the game, but his attempts proves to be futile.

OverviewEdit

Finn is first made available in the Prologue Chapter of the game, specifically at the beginning of the third turn. At this juncture, he may seem out of place due to the enemy forces mainly comprising axe users, but his solid growth rates will help to offset this. As aforementioned, he is the only playable character available in both generations, and is thus definitely worth using as a combat unit.

There has been mixed review as to whether Finn should be paired up or not. Some players feel that Finn should not paired up, as this will result in him returning in the second generation with an Iron Lance, limiting his usefulness as a unit. Others recommend pairing him up with Raquesis, not just for the +5 Speed bonus to Nanna, but also for the context of Thracia 776.

ConversationsEdit

In Chapter 1, if Quan speaks to Finn, Finn will gain one point of strength, one point of skill, and one point of defense.

In Chapter 2, after Heirhein Castle is captured, Quan may speak to Finn, and Finn will receive the Brave Lance.

In Chapter 7, after Darna Castle is captured, if Finn is the father of either Nanna, Lana, or Larcei, he may then speak to his daughter. This will result in Nanna gaining five points of speed, Rana gaining five points of magic, and Lakche gaining five points of skill.

In Chapter 8, Finn may speak to Leif, and Leif will gain three points of strength.

In Chapter 9, after Grutia Castle is captured, Finn may speak to Altena, resulting in her gaining three points of HP. This conversation may not be initiated if Hannibal speaks to her beforehand.

LoveEdit

Finn is unable to fall in love in the Second Generation, but is a potential father for the female playable units of said generation.
