Fake Fire Emblem Fan Holds Chaotic Reddit AMA, Answers Stuff Correctly
An animator who knows nothing about Fire Emblem ventured to Reddit to answer Fire Emblem-related questions, and they got a surprising amount of them right.

As more games were made, this led to a long list of characters with more dramatic personalities, appearances, and backstories to stand out from an already large cast. For example, while there are more humble characters like Will who are fighting to protect their friends, more recent games have characters like Byleth — who's also playable in Super Smash Bros., possesses time travel powers, and a sword made from magic bones.
