“I've come for this town's rare tomes. They're mine—ALL MINE!”
—Senno's battle quote

Senno is a capturable boss character from Fire Emblem Fates in the Conquest and Revelation. He is a deplorable rascal who is known to seek rare tomes to bolster his crimes.

Profile[]

Conquest/Revelation[]

Senno plays a minor role in Paralogue 20, only speaking when he is engaged in battle. Learning of the rumor that a rare tome has surfaced in the Ancient City, he leads an assault on Corrin's army in an attempt to deter them from laying hands on it. His attempt proves futile, as he is defeated by Corrin's army. He also appears as a potential visitor in the DLC episode Museum Melee.

Senno will be added into the Unit Logbook as soon as he is persuaded to join the player's army in Conquest/Revelation. In order to use him in Birthright, the only path he's not available in, said path must be purchased through the same cartridge or saved data on the Nintendo 3DS.

Personality[]

Owing to his minor role in the game, Senno's personality is thus largely unknown. Several aspects of his character can still be gleaned from the few speaking lines that he has nevertheless. For one, Senno has been portrayed as disturbingly obsessed with his quest to attain rare tomes. This fact may be derived when engaging him in battle, where he practically screams as he claims ownership over all rare tomes within the Ancient City. His character info describes him as 'a fiend who seeks rare tomes for his foul schemes.' Ironically, all of his classes, Apothecary, Merchant (after promoted), and Mechanist, do not affiliate with using tomes what-so-ever.

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.

On the whole, Senno is somewhat balanced, with high growths in Strength, Skill and Defense. However, his Speed can prove to be quite a bit of a handicap to him in case of bad growths. His HP and Defense growths do not really stand out either, and it is thus recommended to give him a Guard Naginata to bolster his defenses. Fortunately like other Nohrian paralogue bosses, Senno comes with Seal Magic and Lucky Seven on Hard and Lunatic Modes.

As a Merchant, Senno has access to Spendthrift as an alternate option for both offense and defense purposes. However, he may not activate Profiteer as much as desired due to his average Luck growth, and it is thus recommended to stock up on Gold Bars by other means if utilizing Spendthrift with him is desired. Senno's base Luck isn't too bad, and his Luck growth is mediocre but not poor; he can be a decent money generator, particularly when using Anna's Bow and/or Rally Luck. However, he is not nearly as proficient at collecting gold bars as the likes of Anna or Midori.

Senno's only reclassing option (barring specialty and DLC items) is Mechanist. This does help improve him even more, as he can rely on Shurikens to serve as a stat debuffer and the low damage they usually have is redeemed by Spendthrift. Golembane does not offer much considering the low number of puppet/golem enemies in-game. Replicate, however, allows Senno to cover a wider area to catch any fleeing enemies if possible. Since Merchants and Mechanists have an A Rank cap in Bows and Shuriken respectively, Senno is one of the few units in Conquest that can use Spy weaponry.

Oddly, Senno has a positive Magic modifier and a negative Strength modifier despite lacking natural access to any magical classes. On the other hand, his actual base Magic growth is poor enough to prevent him from actually reaching his Magic cap without the aid of Spirit Dust. Like all other capturable units (excluding Candace), Senno can utilize Fell Brands and Ebon Wings to reclass into Grandmaster and Dark Flier respectively, which do have a magic growth. Ignis from Grandmaster and Galeforce from Dark Flier are the best skills to learn; even though they both have a rally skill respectively, it is better off being used by rally units.

Trivia[]

  • Senno's voice clips in combat are shared with the non-capturable boss, Kilma.
  • Senno is one of the characters to use the map sprites of a generic enemy's in his base class. Due to him wearing a blue bamboo hat, his map sprite is a simple palette swap of a generic Apothecary's. This also applies to Haitaka, another capturable boss, with Spear Fighter.
