Shanna (Japanese:シャニーThany) is aIlian traineePegasus Knight and mercenary, and the younger sister of fellow Pegasus KnightsJuno andThea. She serves withDieck's mercenary squad as part of her training, having worked in the field for a year prior to the onset of theDisturbance of Bern,^[4] and was hired into the service ofRoy ofPherae during the Disturbance.

Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade

Role

WhenBern's army first threatened to press on intoLycia,Pherae's LordEliwood hired Dieck's band as reinforcements for the Pheraen army led by his son,Roy. Designated to meet at the frontier between Lycia and Bern, the band arrived to finda skirmish already underway, and Shanna was tasked to find Roy, then return to Dieck and report on his status. After rescuingElen's mistressGuinivere, they integrated into Roy's army and served with him for the rest of the war as part of the joint Lycia–Etruria army.

Later, during theWestern Isles campaign, Shanna encountered one of her older sisters,Thea, in the battlefield in the employ of an Etrurian unit servingArcardo; however, she could only convince Thea to not attack Roy until he consulted withThea's employer. With Klein's defection to Roy, Shanna successfully convinced Thea to join the Lycian army as well.

Analysis

Shanna joins you in Chapter 2 as a Pegasus Knight with a high Aid stat and 7 movement. This is already very useful as she can help get other units to the frontlines or evacuate a unit with low HP away from the frontlines. Shanna also has little trouble if she finds the need to retreat since she ignores terrain. Of course, Shanna suffers from the standard weakness to bows and theAircalibur magic tomes shared by all fliers, unless she is equipped with aDelphi Shield, an item that can be obtained by stealing it fromNarcian inChapter 16.

Shanna has high Skill, Luck, and Speed, but has low HP, Strength, Defense, and Constitution. She will double attack a lot due to her high base Speed and growth, a rarity on Hard mode, which compensates for her low Strength. Her biggest weakness is her questionable physical durability. While her base defense is pretty respectable, her base HP is poor (only 1 more thanElen and 1 less thanRoy) and her growths in these areas are also poor. Shanna primarily relies on her high Speed and Luck to dodge enemies. Fortunately, fliers have much less competition for promotion items than other units, as fewer units promote with anElysian Whip than with other promotion items, and there are three available by the end ofChapter 12, with the first one available inChapter 8.

Compared to other flying units,Thea joins 8 or 9 chapters later with higher base Strength and Defense but lower Speed.Melady is a 7 movement killing machine whose only disadvantages over the other fliers is her later join time and lower aid. The other Wyvern Rider isZeiss, who joins late but has a great class and very high strength. Lastly,Juno has mediocre stats and growths compared to the other fliers and only really serves as filler. It is worth noting that Shanna, Thea, and Juno can execute theTriangle Attack.

One factor to note is that the player will access different versions of Chapters 17-20 depending on Shanna's stats. If she and Thea have more experience than Sue and Sin, the player will go to Ilia, while if Sue and Sin have more experience, the player will go to Sacae.

When compared to the entireBinding Blade roster, Shanna holds a high place above most because of her great class, join time, and solid combat.

Shanna, Cheerful Knight
Short: Returned home and was knighted.

Long: After the war, Shanna was knighted and became a full-fledged Pegasus Knight. Throughout her career, she served as lieutenant and squad leader, and she eventually rose to the position of Flightleader of Ilia. Her cheerful personality earned her much admiration and respect from her colleagues.

Roy and Shanna
Shanna gave up the path of the Pegasus Knight and went to Pherae with Roy, where they married. Rebuilding the battered land was a painful process, but her cheerful personality encouraged many people to rise up and help lead Lycia to prosperity again.

Shanna: Sprightly Flier
Ilia, in northern Elibe, is a land of pegasi and pegasus knights. Here's Shanna, a trainee knight with big hopes for the future!	Ilian pegasus knights can only complete their training by spending time working as mercenaries abroad and gaining practical experience, so Shanna joined up with the group of mercenaries led by the former gladiator Dieck.	By the way, Shanna has two equally talented older sisters, Juno and Thea. She dreams of being a first-class pegasus knight just like them!	Shanna's an energetic free spirit, and I'm told that her cheerful outlook helps to lift her allies' spirits and keep them motivated. I hope I can do the same for all our friends here in Askr!

Here's Shanna, the bright, cheery trainee pegasus knight from Dieck's band of mercenaries! For this special appearance, she's wearing an elegant bridal outfit!	The design of her outfit is true to her active, energetic nature, featuring a light, soft skirt that doesn't restrict her movements, and a pair of long boots.	Meanwhile, the bow she's carrying features a stained glass pattern, reminiscent of a wedding chapel. It's positively glowing, just like a young couple in love!	Shanna's breathtaking bridal outfit is a striking change from her usual, more practical wear, but her cheerful smile is beaming brighter than ever. She'll be unstoppable no matter where she goes!
