Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia is a few weeks away from its May 19th release, and Nintendo Treehouse’s official Tumblr has shared some new details on the character of Alm and a few members of his army. In addition, we get a look at a few pieces of concept that will be featured in the art book which will be part of the game’s limited edition.
Here’s a look at the concept art for Alm, Faye, Clair, and Lukas, as well as some information on each character. To read the full details, you can check out Nintendo Treehouse’s Tumblr.
Alm:
“Raised in the quiet and rural Ram Village, this young warrior was trained in swordsmanship and military tactics and taught how to overcome challenging weather and terrain from a young age by his grandfather, the knight Mycen. At the start of the game, Alm is a formidable, if untested, Fighter. As the game progresses, his battle-filled journey will take him far from the village he’s called home.”
Faye:
“This young woman from Ram Village grew up with Alm and has had a…not-so-subtle thing for him ever since they were kids. Faye’s affection for Alm is unfortunately (or fortunately) unrequited, but she’s intensely devoted to him and, if asked, she’ll accompany him on his journey and join up with the Deliverance.”
Clair:
“A headstrong and fearless young noblewoman as well as a valuable fighter, this Pegasus Knight is not only a member of the Deliverance—a force created to counter the recent coup d’etat—but also a queen bee of Zofian high society who absolutely LOATHES being excluded from anything. Her proud, overbearing attitude can be a bit overwhelming…but it’s kind of admirable that she doesn’t give a damn about what people think of her, isn’t it?”
Lukas:
“A loyal member of the Deliverance, Lukas grew up on the borderlands at the kingdom’s edge before becoming a Soldier whose considerable merits have caused him to rise quickly up the ranks.”
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia is available for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan. It will release internationally on May 19th, 2017.
