“I have every wish to trust you, stranger, but my station mandates otherwise.”
—Frederick to the Avatar in the Prologue

Frederick (フレデリク Furederiku, translated Frederik in the Japanese version) is a character from Fire Emblem: Awakening. According to the official Japanese website, he is voiced by Daisuke Ono.[1] He is voiced by Kyle Hebert in the English version.

ProfileEdit

Frederick is a veteran who prefers to guide others, and is Chrom's deputy in the Shepherds.

Frederick is first introduced in the Prologue when Chrom and Lissa find the Avatar unconscious. He is a bit skeptical of their amnesia, but he eventually trusts Chrom's judgement in trusting the Avatar. Frederick accompanies Chrom throughout his journey in Ylisse to stop the Ylisse-Plegia war. When Emmeryn is nearly assassinated, he advises her to leave the capital for a short while. However Ylisstol is attacked by Plegia, causing Emmeryn to return in order to parley with Gangrel. Emmeryn orders Frederick to stay with Chrom, which he humbly accepts. After Emmeryn's sacrifice, Frederick feels that he's failed his duty as a Knight of Ylisse, but he recovers and vows to continue to serve and protect Chrom and Lissa.

After the war, regardless if he's married or not, Frederick becomes the newest knight captain for Ylisse and devotes his time to keep the peace in Ylisse and train new recruits.

In Frederick's support with Panne, in his youth Frederick was attacked by a wolf. Upon seeing Panne in her Taguel form, this trauma resurfaces. Frederick appears to dislike bear meat as shown with his support with the Avatar. In his support with Lissa, he says he does not know how to relax.

PersonalityEdit

Frederick is extremely serious and has a no nonsense personality. He is a skeptic and earned him the nickname "Frederick the Wary" from Chrom. He is very patient, dealing with Lissa's antics and Chrom's reckless behavior to no end, but Frederick cares for Chrom, Lissa, and Emmeryn, feeling the need to protect and serve them at all costs. However, his brand of service range from preparing their clothes for the next day to the point of doing ridiculous things such as clearing their path of all debris, even leaves and twigs so they do not trip. Maribelle even says he is more like a butler in the way that he acts. He enjoys making fires the most out of anyone in the army. His birthday is August 26th.

OverallEdit

Base ClassEdit

Fredrick is the Oifey of Awakening, meaning he will be an exp sponge for much of the first half of the game. Frederick is a perfectly capable unit with modest strength, speed, skill, and defense growths on top of a guaranteed HP boost every level. Frederick can also learn Luna (which would be a good skill to pass down on to his child, if married) before hitting Chapter 11 with proper level grinding, making his role as an offensive force much more prominent. Frederick needs to be wary of mages due to his lower resistance, especially as a Great Knight. Also, true to his Archetype, he may fall behind later in the game once units begin to promote, but is still useful nonetheless. However all is not lost for Frederick as the Reclassing system will break him out of his archetype's curse and eventually, like everyone else, bring him to his maximum potential.

His base class comes from the Cavalier line, so he will start off with Discipline which will make Frederick a mobile jack-of-all-trades physical unit. Outdoor Fighter will boost Frederick's effectiveness in the initial half of the game due to the large amount of outdoor maps. Frederick can slide reclass into a Paladin once he reaches level 10. He can grab Defender to boost his stats in a Pair Up and most importantly Aegis, to mostly halve incoming magic regardless of his class.

ReclassingEdit

Frederick's two reclassing sets are the Wyvern Rider and Knight lines. Frederick performs moderately well as both sets due to their physical nature though both focus on separate stats. As a Knight and a General, Frederick will get a good boost in defenses though he will need to be wary of mages especially in these classes. Frederick can grab Pavise to boost his physical defenses making him even harder to take down physically.

Taking the role of a Wyvern Rider class, mainly as a Wyvern Lord, Frederick will be a offensive force with free mobility on all terrains. Quick Burn will make him a good first wave attacker and boost his semi-average skill and speed and Swordbreaker for extra utility. As a Griffon Rider, he will get a decent amount of speed and skill added after taking some points from strength. Deliverer will expand his attack range and Lancebreaker serves as another utility move for Frederick.
