| “ | I will never let the laughter of cruel people stop me from being who I am. Long ago, I decided I wouldn't let them change the way I dress... and I certainly won't let them stop me from being compassionate toward others. | ” | — Forrest to his mother in asupport conversation |

Forrest (Japanese:フォレオFoleo) is the son of PrinceLeo ofNohr. He is aTroubadour who grew up in aDeeprealm. Like the rest of the Nohrian royal family, Forrest has inherited the power ofDragon Vein from his father.
Fire Emblem Fates
Role
Forrest is one of the second generation characters inFates, and is recruitable after Leo is wed. As he is a child character, his recruitment time and starting stats can vary wildly.
In his paralogue, Forrest leaves his Deeprealm to visit a trading town inNohr for sewing supplies,[2] but said village ends up under attack by a group of bandits. Forrest takes to healing injured villagers during the conflict, though is mistaken for a beautiful woman doing so. Leo andElise enter the village, and Elise finds Forrest to be a lovely person, however, Leo strongly rejects Forrest, especially on his choice of dress,[3] and questions why he has left his deeprealm. Shortly after Leo and Forrest argue with each other, Forrest begins to leave, and then said bandits mistake him for a lovely woman and kidnap him, planning to sell him for money.[4] Leo actually seems reluctant to bother, and Elise steps in to rescue Forrest herself.[5] Though Leo regains his composure a few moments later and also works to rescue Forrest.
After fending off the bandits, Forrest says he will return to his Deeprealm, but makes sure to note that it is not to hide himself to protect Leo's pride.[6] Before Forrest leaves, Leo apologizes for his behavior.[7] Though Forrest somewhat deflects his father's apology and invitation to travel with him, instead, Forrest focuses on being able to spend more time with Elise.

This section has been marked as astub. Please help improve the page by adding information.
Forrest has a great interest in fashion. He is adept at designing beautiful clothing, and wears male and female clothes without discrimination. Forrest first gained an interest in sewing and feminine clothing when he was young, Leo had gifted Forrest's caretaker one of Elise's old dresses, and Forrest decided to try said dress on. Leo praised Forrest's looks in said dress.[8] However, past Forrest's young age Leo strongly disapproved of these habits, and rarely visited his son, resulting in the two having a toxic relationship for quite a while. But they reconcile after the events of Forrest's paralogue. He is kind and sympathetic, but very timid, and possesses the strongestfear of blood in the army.
