“We'll see who's delicate! I may not be able to attack like Chrom, but when you get injured? I'LL be the one stitching your bones back together, care of my trusty staff! You just tell me where to go, Avatar.”
—Lissa
Lissa (リズ Rizu, Liz in the Japanese version) is a playable character from Fire Emblem: Awakening.

Profile
Edit
Lissa is Chrom and Emmeryn's younger sister, and the princess of the Halidom of Ylisse. She has an important presence on the field, and helps Chrom in battle as part of the Shepherds as their Cleric. She is also best friends with Maribelle.
Lissa and Chrom encounter the Avatar in a field, who suffers from amnesia. However they don't have much time to question the Avatar as a Southtown is set ablaze. After saving the town from bandits alongside Chrom, Frederick, and the Avatar, the group decides to head back to Ylisstol. Later that night a mysterious gate opens, sending in numerous Risen. Chrom fends off some of them, but one manages to get close to Lissa. As the Risen is about to strike, a masked warrior appears and saves Lissa. After dealing with all the risen, the masked warrior introduces himself as Marth and warns the group of turbulent times to come. Later when Maribelle is captured, Lissa shows great concern and goes off with Chrom to save her.
After preventing the assassination of Emmeryn, Lissa heads out with Chrom and his army to move Emmeryn to a safer location. However, they barely leave the capital when word arrives from Cordelia that Ylisstol has been attacked by Gangrel. Emmeryn decides to go back to Ylisstol to parley with Gangrel and Lissa volunteers to accompany her, however Emmeryn forces her to stay with Chrom. Later, when Emmeryn is to be executed by Gangrel at Plegia Castle, Emmeryn voluntarily falls off the cliff she stood on to prevent the Fire Emblem from falling into Gangrel's hands. Lissa covers her eyes in terror as Emmeryn falls to her death. Later, like Chrom, both are deeply saddened by her sister's sacrifice. However both of them garter themselves and prepare to fight on in her memory and eventually, both successfully defeat Gangrel with the help of the army.
After the war, should Lissa not be married, Lissa embarks on a trip around the world and shares what she learned throughout her journey to Chrom. If the Avatar sacrificed themselves to kill Grima, Lissa accompanies Chrom during his search around the world to find the Avatar and eventually find them in a field, much like when they first met.
She is the mother of Owain and aunt of Lucina. If she marries the Avatar then she will also be Morgan's mother or Morgan's aunt if the Avatar marries Chrom or Emmeryn. She could also be the aunt of Brady, Inigo, Cynthia, or Kjelle. Unlike her older siblings, she does not possess the Brand of the Exalt, causing her to worry that she was a bastard child. She becomes relieved to know she is legitimate after meeting Owain and learning he has the Mark.
Personality
Edit
Lissa initially appears to be naive about what is going on in the world and she also sometimes act like a spoiled princess, but she has a kind heart. She is also a bit childish such as pulling pranks on the Avatar and quickly growing upset when Donnel knows more in academics when she is trying to teach him. Despite that, she has an extremely bright personality, and, like Chrom, has a strong sense of justice. She speaks like a commoner, which is unusual for royalty, but allows her to communicate with others better and her sprightly personality keeps the army in high spirits, which Chrom considers her greatest asset. She jumps up the most out of anyone in the army and is the most likely to snort. Her birthday is March 6th.

Inheritance
Edit
Since the Pegasus Knight class is female-exclusive, Lissa's son will instead be able to reclass into the following class:
Overall
Edit
Lissa is your typical Cleric in the beginning with average skill and luck to dodge incoming attacks, though she should not be exposed so easily as usual when dealing with Cleric units. Once Maribelle enters, Lissa is slightly less effective as a healer due to her slightly lower magic growth rates and lower movement range. However, Lissa is still a capable healer, and most likely will be better than Maribelle when she is recruited since she will be the only healing unit for 5 chapters. Maribelle is unable to get Healtouch, giving Lissa a good healing advantage once she reaches level 10.
Lissa's two promotions are War Cleric and Sage. Lissa does quite well as a War Cleric due to the more balanced stats. Though her strength is a slight issue with growth rates, her speed and skill give her good fighting capabilities while still managing her healing priorities until her strength is no longer an issue. Bolt Axes also work great in this class since her Magic growths and caps are better than her strength. Lissa also learns Renewal which will be her greatest asset if she is a solo healer unit in a Map and should be on her always. Lissa as a Sage loses the defensive qualities of a War Cleric to maximize her magical properties, making her a more potent cleric, but a less sturdy one. However, if paired up, Lissa as a Sage can be a more effective unit due to higher hit and avoid.
Reclassing
Edit
Lissa's two class options are the Troubadour and Pegasus Knight lines. Troubadour Lissa provides her with the new base class and Valkyrie. Unfortunately she becomes a near carbon copy of Maribelle, but with slightly higher defenses but lower skill and luck. Her slightly higher strength is pointless in this class, but all is not lost with this class. Lissa does gain the support skill Dual Support+ to make her a good Pair Up unit.
As a Pegasus Knight related class, she is a better Falcon Knight healer and Dark Flier mage than Sumia; however she lacks the speed and skill that both Sumia and Cordelia have. However Lissa gains Galeforce which increases her map clearing abilities and should be the skill that Lissa passes down to Owain.

- Lissa and the Avatar
- Many wrote of Avatar's legendary exploits, but accounts of his origins and character varied. Scholars, poets, and bards agreed on one thing alone—he loved his wife, Lissa, above all else.
- Lissa and Frederick
- As Ylisse's new knight captain, Frederick took charge of keeping the peace and training new recruits. Lissa often visited his charges in town to report concerns and transgressions to her husband.
- Lissa and Virion
- Virion returned home to Rosanne, where he was labeled a traitor and cowards, or else ignored entirely. But none of it fazed his wife, Lissa, who won the populace over with good old-fashioned charm.
- Lissa and Vaike
- Vaike returned to the streets that raised him and was welcomed as a hero and brother to all. Still, he was no match for Lissa, who fit in with the people instantly despite her royal upbringing.
- Lissa and Stahl
- Stahl continued his service as an Ylissean knight and led crucial missions across the realm. His scattered nature blended well with his wife Lissa's cheerful banter, making for a happy life indeed.
- Lissa and Kellam
- Lissa's wild nature led her to travel the world and relay its wisdom to her brother. The princess's exploits live on in many a droll tale told by the campfire. Her husband's name has been lost to history.
