|---|
Oskar (Japanese:オゾットHosotte) is an unplayable major antagonist originating fromFire Emblem Warriors. He is the king ofGristonne, and the father of its prince,Darios.
Fire Emblem Warriors
Role
Oskar appears very late in the game, only afterLianna andRowan return toAytolis to liberate it fromGristonne and themonsters. Oskar wishes to takeVelezark's might for himself and become all-powerful.
Oskar's story presence is extremely short lived despite starting the entire conflict and usingDarios for furthering his goals. He is killed the chapter after he is introduced, to serve as a substitute sacrifice in place ofYelena when she is rescued, leaving him with very little dialogue or story presence. He also remains unfought by the player due to only appearing in two cutscenes.
Personality
Oskar's extremely limited presence provides little insight into his true character. Despite harmonious relations withAytolis in recent years[1] he does not appear to regret invading the country or desiring the power ofVelezark at all. He expects absolute obedience from Darios, and is surprised when Darios impales him with his sword, making the nature of their family relationship unclear. Oskar's non-reaction to Darios's possessed state makes it unclear if he had even realized Darios was under Velezark's control at all.
