Lachesis
| ||||||||||||||||
|
| “ | Smug, self-absorbed swine like him are the absolute worst! If only more men were cut from the same cloth as Eldie... It's too bad they aren't, else perhaps someone would stand a chance to marry me. Perhaps. | ” | — Lachesis, onElliot |
|---|
Lachesis (pronounced /ləˈkisɪs/[key][1]; Japanese:ラケシスRackesis) was a princess of theAgustrian state ofNordion, and the younger sister of its kingEldigan. A friend ofSigurd ofChalphy like her brother, she allied with Sigurd when Nordion was besieged byElliot ofHeirhein and in the Agustrian civil war, despite this putting her at odds with Eldigan, who reluctantly continued to serve KingChagall. After Eldigan's execution, she accompanied Sigurd's army in his exile inSilesse.

While Eldigan was in Agusti parleying with his liege, KingChagall, Lachesis remained at Nordion under the protection of three of Eldigan's Cross Knights:Eva,Eve andAlva. With Eldigan gone,Elliot of Heirhein attempted to assault Nordion in retaliation for Lachesis spurning his advances, but was stopped by Lachesis with the support ofSigurd and his army, which came to assist fromEvans. Afterwards when King Chagall orders Eldigan to assault castle Agusti after the Seize of Castle Madino, Lachesis pleads with Eldigan to stop fighting for Chagall, which leads him to return to Sylvale attempt to reason with Chagall one more time.

Analysis
| This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
As a unit
Lachesis starts quite underleveled, at level 2, and at base, she lacks a mount, lacksFollow-Up, and has a low staff level, magic, HP and strength. Her speed and resistance bases are high, she has a good luck growth and her minor Hoðr blood gives her a high strength growth and makes her immediately able to use all non-legendary swords in the game, but her other growths are subpar and her other base stats are mediocre. She starts as an inferior combat unit to those with Follow-Up or a mount, and an inferior support unit to staff users with a better staff level or a mount. However, she has one of the strongest promotions in the game,Master Knight, and can acquire several helpful items to allow her to reach it. TheMiracle Sword she starts with enables her to clear thearena more easily by activating the effects ofMiracle at low health, and only she and other female units can use it. Dew can give her theThief Sword in an event in Chapter 2, which lets her takegold from enemies. If all her retainers survive Chapter 2, they will give her theKnight Ring—it is useless on Lachesis when she is promoted, but she can sell it for more gold, and Eldigan can give her theLands Sword in an event inChapter 3, which improves her survivability and gives her 2-range in combat or can be sold for gold. With the gold obtained through various means, Lachesis can purchase, among other useful items, theParagon Ring, which increases herexperience gain. The ability to use staves gives Lachesis a source of experience that does not put her at risk through combat—in particular, she can use theReturn staff (which grants 35 experience with each use; 70 with the Paragon Ring) and can use it repeatedly if she is left at the home castle with another unit.
Lachesis can provide non-staff support throughCharm, which increases by 10 each thehit rate andavoid of every ally within three spaces of her, which can combine withSigurd'sauthority bonus. However, providing this bonus requires that Lachesis be near combat, and prior to promotion will require slowing mounted units down or giving Lachesis the very competitiveLeg Ring.
After promotion, Lachesis gains a mount, Follow-Up, significant stat bonuses, and the weapon levels to use almost every weapon in the game. Through her high stats and weapon flexibility, Lachesis becomes one of the strongest combat units available. Additionally, Lachesis is the only mounted unit who can use A and B rank staves, most notably theRescue, greatly enhancing the mobility of any unit she uses it on, potentially increasing the speed at which Sigurd can seizecastles. However, Nanna can only inherit the A-level swords and C-level staves (potentially B-level, ifClaud is her father) in Lachesis's inventory; weapons in Lachesis's inventory at the end ofChapter 5 that Nanna cannot inherit—which includes the A-level Rescue—must be inherited by other units or be obtained again in the second generation inshops or dropped by enemies.
As a mother
For choices of husbands,Beowolf andFinn are often considered Lachesis's best husbands. Beowolf gives Nanna and Diarmuid Follow-Up andAccost, and can pass A-level swords to Diarmuid if he has promoted. Finn also passes down Follow-Up, but passesMiracle instead of Accost; Finn can have a conversation with Nanna inChapter 7 that gives her +5 speed if he is her father. However, Diarmuid cannot inherit Finn's lances, Finn must defeat an enemy that drops a sword—the only such cases Finn can access before leaving being theLightning Sword dropped byJacobi or theSilver Blade dropped byChagall, both in Chapter 3—to pass them to Diarmuid, which also makes them unavailable for other units until they are inherited, and Finn will lose his whole inventory in Chapter 7 (left with anIron Lance) if he marries, which can put the player at a disadvantage in Chapter 7 where he needs to help defendLeif and Nanna for a large portion of the chapter. Beowolf and Finn pass very similar growths to Diarmuid and Nanna, though Beowolf offers slightly better HP and strength growths (+10% for Diarmuid and +5% for Nanna compared to Finn); the stats they pass depend on the stats they gain, and as such can vary: based on their average stats at level 30, Beowolf passes slightly better strength and HP (1 or 2 points) than Finn—additionally, as Finn leaves the player's army in Chapter 3, Beowolf is likely to have higher stats. Beowolf also has more opportunity to fall inlove with Lachesis; he and Finn have the same love point base and growth (50 points and 2 points per turn, respectively), but Finn is only available for two chapters with Lachesis (Chapters 2 and 3), while Beowolf is for four chapters (Chapters 2–5) and has an event with her in Chapter 2 that provides 100 love points (and boosts Lachesis's strength, skill, and defense). Generally then, Beowolf is preferable as a father as he gives Diarmuid easier and more convenient access to swords while not depriving Finn of his lances, and Nanna is generally fast enough where she doesn't need +5 speed and is mainly a staff user regardless.
Aside from those two, magical-oriented husbands, namelyAzelle andClaud, can also be solid choices. Azelle gives decent magic growths to both of Lachesis's children, strengthening Nanna's healing role and lets her and Diarmuid use magic swords more effectively. Claud on the other hand allows Nanna to use more stronger staves, and gives her and Diarmuid decent resistance growths. However, between the two, Claud is the inferior choice due to having no skills to pass down, whereas Azelle at least passes down the desirable Follow-Up skill, and even then he typically has better options, since Nanna and Diarmuid can't use tomes. Both fathers also hurt both of their strength, so they can struggle to reliably one-round opponents.Lex can allow Lachesis's children to inherit theParagon skill to help reach their promotion faster and give them physically tanky growths, though the lack of innate Follow-Up will hurt their combat prowess in the long run without theFollow-Up Ring, which only one unit can use at a time.

Fire Emblem Heroes
Role
There are two different variations of Lachesis available toHeroes, both of which are tied to her storyline appearance inGenealogy of the Holy War. The normal variation of Lachesis is one of the characters added to the game in theSibling Bonds update, and became available for summoning by players on February 27, 2017. A performance-themed variation of Lachesis was made available between the period of September 8, 2020 through October 8, 2020 as part of the summoning event surrounding the launch of theTo Stay Dreaming update.
Lachesis is one of six characters whose appearance in the initialChoose Your Legends poll were given a name that contradicted a previously-existing officially localized English name (in this case, the name "Raquesis" granted inAwakening), and one of four whose contradiction still stood when the poll ended; Lachesis carried that contradiction intoHeroes proper.

Personality
Lachesis is prideful, strong-willed and will not hesitate to make her objections to others known. Fiercely independent, she particularly objects to those who attempt to make decisions on her behalf. She holds her brother Eldigan in the utmost regard and respect, worries greatly about his safety, and uses him as a benchmark to compare the caliber of other people, particularly potential suitors; as far as she is concerned, nobody is as good as Eldigan.
Endings
Genealogy of the Holy War
Many heroes lost their lives on this path... /And the names of those heroes who fought alongside Sigurd to the bitter end at Belhalla, whose fates remain unknown...
...
Lachesis, a noblewoman of Nordion...
...
These brave youths fought to change the world for the better, yet now their unfulfilled dreams lie dead with them on the battlefield...
Was their sacrifice in vain? What were they fighting for all along?
And what of the light...?
