| “ | I am the heir of Loptous's kin, and the inheritor of his limitless power. This world belongs rightfully to me. | ” | — Julius |
|---|
Julius (Japanese:ユリウスYurius) was the prince of theGrannvale Empire, the son of EmperorArvis andDeirdre, and the twin brother ofJulia. He was the product of the extensive schemes ofManfroy of theLoptr Church, to create a living vessel to reincarnate the Dark GodLoptous by breeding a child bearing full LoptousHoly Blood from the bloodline's two living minor carriers, Arvis and Deirdre.
Several years prior to the rise of Seliph's liberation army, Julius became subject to Loptous's corruption upon receivingthe evil god's unholy tome. Under Loptous's influence, Julius successfully wrested control of the empire from his father and twisted it into a brutal regime, reintroduced thechild hunts and gave Loptrian priests positions of power in the Empire. His ultimate goal was for Loptous to eventually take full possession of him and, by extension, of the Empire, and from there to resurrect the ancientLoptrian Empire.
Biography
Early life
Julius and Julia were born some time after theBattle of Belhalla and the formation of the Grannvale Empire; even before his birth, his late great-grandfatherAzmur had great expectations for Julius, as Deirdre's son, to save theHeim bloodline following the death of his grandfather,Kurth. In approximately Grann 771, seven years prior to their eventual reunion,[1][citation needed] Manfroy came to Belhalla and presented Julius with theLoptous tome. As soon as he touched it, he was corrupted by the spirit of Loptous and attempted to kill hisNaga-blooded twin; this failed, however, as Deirdrewarped Julia away from Grannvale and allowed herself to be killed by Julius instead.
Despite his youth, after taking in Loptous's spirit, Julius began to undermine Arvis's grip on the Grannvale Empire, rendering his father a mostly powerless figurehead as he began to pervert the empire into the style of the old Loptrian Empire, beginning with entrusting Loptrian priests with official positions in the Empire's hierarchy.[2] Arvis attempted to resist Julius seizing hold of the empire, even once attempting to outright banish him from Grannvale, but his efforts met with failure and, it is implied, severe consequences.[3] At some point, he became betrothed toIshtar, a member of theFriege nobility.
The child of darkness
In Grann 776, Julius, Ishtar and Manfroy were payingVeld a visit inMunster, at the same time asLeif's escape from the Munster Castle prison. There, he and Manfroy were conferring withVeld, the Loptrian bishop in charge ofThracia's north, on the proceedings of the child hunts of the region. The three questioned Ishtar abouther family's reluctance to forcibly storm the city ofTarrah to begin the hunt there, and when Ishtar raised her family's concerns about the immorality of the hunts, Julius attempted to assuage her concerns before taking her away from the conference to observe the flower garden of the complex's yard.
Around the time that Leif's army began its march onLeonster's eastern gate, Julius came down with a severe fever and was hospitalized in Ishtar's quarters inConnacht. Refusing to have him attended by Loptrian bishops, Ishtar travelled to Leonster to findSaias, to come and help heal Julius. After the fall of Fort Danzich and Leif's army's subsequent escape from being cornered there, Julius and Ishtar arrived, whereupon he expressed his disappointment with the performance of Friege's forces. Rather than letting Ishtar go toConnacht to assisther father, he instead then took her toMiletos at the behest ofHilda, after warning her to not seeReinhardt again on pain of his death.
Rise of Seliph
DuringBloom's last stand atConnacht, Julius warped in to collectIshtar and take her back toBelhalla, not wanting to unnecessarily lose her in theMunster District; shortly afterward, inthe Thracian conflict, he rescuedArion from death to Seliph's army, swaying his loyalty to the Empire.
Later, at Chronos Castle inMiletos, Julius and Ishtar were present overseeing the child hunt in the region. They departed for Miletos Castle atHilda's request to prepare to take the captive children back to Belhalla, where Arvis soon arrived, seeking to assist Ishtar in releasing the captive children; Julius fiercely rebuked Arvis for daring to interfere with his control. Manfroy then turned up, bringing news of the captive Julia and how she had recovered her memories of his actions. Despite wanting to have Julia killed, Julius nonetheless allowed Manfroy to proceed with putting her to use. Before leaving for the capital, he and Ishtar decided to play a game: who could kill a member ofSeliph's liberation army first, departing after one of the two won or were defeated.
AtVelthomer Castle, Julius had an audience with the captive Julia, briefly informing her of what caused the change in him and that she, a bearer of theNaga bloodline, must be killed. At Manfroy's request, Julius allowed her to be brainwashed into serving Manfroy before departing for Belhalla. At the capital, he reluctantly allowed Ishtar to depart for the battle against Seliph's impending forces, where she would meet her doom, convened the newly-recreatedDeadlords around Belhalla, and had the order to attack sent toArion's mercenaries. By this time, Loptous had concluded his descent into Julius and was revived and in complete possession of him. In spite of his wishes, Julia had been freed from Manfroy's influence and obtained theNaga tome from Velthomer, whereupon she used it to confront him in battle, negating the crippling effect the Loptous tome had on enemies. Cursing Manfroy's erroneous judgement, Julius engaged her and Seliph's army in direct combat, and was killed; with his dying breath, he (or Loptous) cursed Naga for interfering with his plans once again and swore to Seliph that, so long as men remained greedy, he would one day return.
Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
Role
Julius is the final boss ofGenealogy of the Holy War, and is fought in theEndgame atBelhalla. He also appears and is fought inChapter 10, along withIshtar; in order to proceed past him, either he or Ishtar must be defeated, one of the two must kill one unit of any affiliation, or Seliph must move past him and seize Miletos Castle.
In the Endgame, defeating Julius will causeManfroy to die,Julia to recruit herself, and all remaining enemy units to rout immediately, preventing the player from suffering any further casualties or a game over until Seliph seizes Belhalla to clear the map.

Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
Role

InThracia 776, Julius appears only in cutscenes in two chapters,Chapter 4 andChapter 21x.
In Chapter 4 Julius reassuresIshtar that thechild hunts are for the ultimate good of its victims; the survivors will become nobles in the revivedLoptrian Empire order. Ishtar appears to draw little comfort from this.
In Chapter 21 Julius visits one of the Empire's prisons shortly afterLeif liberated its prisoners. Julius comments that the fall of the prison andBloom's failing forces inConnacht reflect poorly onFriege. Ishtar apologizes for the failings of her noble house but Julius reassures her that she is not personally at fault. Julius then says they will depart forMiletos to check on the child hunts in the region, atHilda's request. Before they depart Julius says thatReinhardt, Ishtar's bodyguard, will not accompany them. He threatens to kill Reinhardt if Reinhardt enters his sight from then on, citing he dislikes the way Reinhardt looks at Ishtar.

Personality
Nothing is known of Julius's persona prior to his corruption by Loptous. Julia implied that before then, Julius was at least a decent child and that the two held a standard good sibling relationship.[4] His persona from then onward appears to be based on his own with his sense of self retained, as Loptous's possession of him was apparently not complete until shortly before his death,[5] but strongly influenced by the malevolent whims of Loptous's influence on him. In this state, he was a highly charismatic figure, masking a cold exterior apathetic of the needs of others (except perhaps Ishtar), possessing immense cruelty, favoring abusing those in opposition to or of lesser power than him including his own father, and of having no tolerance for events not proceeding according to his desires.[6] He showed no hesitation in the idea of killing his own sister or mother, reluctant to follow through on Manfroy's plan which required Julia to continue to live and seeing his mother as a nuisance years after her death; here, he may have been spurred on by Loptous's emnity forNaga, whose major holy blood was borne by both Deirdre and Julia. Julius appeared to have a twisted view of the nature of his actions, seemingly legitimately believing that the misery caused by such endeavours as the child hunts is for the good of all involved and for society as a whole; that, or he had no compunction with effortlessly spinning lies on the matter to persuade the reluctant.[7]
On one hand, he showed a far more human side in his dealings with his fiancée,Ishtar, for whom he seemed to have legitimate feelings and for whom he happily discussed the human trivialties of buying expensive clothing and accessories to attend a party held byher mother.[8] On the other hand, he had absolutely no tolerance for the idea of his relationship with her being even potentially jeopardized, and casually threatened to killReinhardt because of his suspicions of his potential interference in Ishtar's relationship with him.
It is implied that in his childhood, Julius had a problem with consistent illness, and that since Loptous began influencing him the severity and frequency of his illnesses had been steadily increasing.[9]

- ↑"Oho! So you do still remember! I can hardly believe seven long years have passed since you slipped away." — Julius,Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
- ↑"But obviously he changed his mind. A few years back, as if by magic, the Empire turned into that oppressive force we all know and love today. Even worse... the ancient heretics of the Loptr Church have arisen from the shadows once more and raised influence across the land. Their murderous rituals have returned with them, and all across Jugdral they abduct children to sacrifice in droves to resurrect their fell god. All attempts to resist the Empire are crushed and met with brutal executions or enslavement. It couldn't be plainer that they seek to return Jugdral to the days of brutal control by that ancient abomination, the Loptrian Empire." —Lewyn,Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
- ↑"Julius: Why, Father, it almost sounds as if you still don't know any better! Old age must already be dulling that once brilliant mind of yours. Why not retire before it grows still feebler? Unless... Ohoho! Don't tell me you still seriously believe that you can banish me?
Arvis: No... I know better than to try something so futile again... I... I have no further objection." — Julius andArvis,Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War - ↑"Who... No, what are you? That night... The night Manfroy came with that eerie black tome... Nothing was ever the same again. My real brother, the kind and caring boy I once knew and loved so, died that night. In his place stood a demon of terrifying power... My brother in name only." —Julia,Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
- ↑"Everything I've done has led to this moment: the revival of my lord Loptous. And at long last, it is so! Loptous's advent in the form of Prince Julius is complete,and darkness shall soon engulf the world. You cannot prevent it. Nobody can..." — Manfroy,Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
- ↑"He... How can I put this... He has this odd charm which draws people to him... only for them to find that he's colder than ice. He's terrifying! If I didn't know better, I would swear he isn't even human..." —Tine,Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War
- ↑"Ishtar, I think there's a misunderstanding. I am not telling them to kill the children. I just want to educate them to be fitting citizens for my empire. Those who withstand the training will earn high posts and rule over the other inferior citizens. In other words, they will become new nobles, Ishtar. I'm giving them a chance to grasp their happiness." — Julius,Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
- ↑"Miletos would be a perfect place to stay. Let's see... Ah, I'll buy you a beautiful silken dress. And...a ruby tiara to go with it. I'm sure Hilda will throw a splendid party for us. And I'm going to show you beautifully dressed up and surprise everyone there. Doesn't that sound wonderful, Ishtar? Ishtar, my love..." — Julius,Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
- ↑"Ishtar: Julius is not well! He is suffering from a very high fever...
Saias: He was never strong, but he seems to be getting worse lately..." —Ishtar andSaias,Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 - ↑Behind the Name:Julius
