SaintMacuil (pronounced /⁠ˈmækjuˌɪl⁠/[key][3]; Japanese:マクイルMacuil) was a significant figure in the history ofFódlan. He is one of the Four Saints who fought alongsideSeiros in the battle againstNemesis. He is also known asthe Wind Caller (Japanese:風を呼ぶものThat which calls the wind).

Biography

Macuil is one of theChildren of the Goddess. After the massacre perpetuated byNemesis in Zanado, he joined forces withSeiros and the other surviving Nabateans, becoming one of theFour Saints; unlike his peers, Macuil refused to share his blood with his human allies due to despising their species for having one of their kind responsible for killingSothis, merely limiting himself to crafting weapons he and his allies would use in the upcoming conflict with Nemesis. Macuil later participated in theWar of Heroes and left to parts unknown once it came to a close, with some even speculating he had perished during it.

In Imperial year 1185-1186, Macuil can be foundin a paralogue exclusive to the Verdant Wind route asClaude seeks some of his weapons hidden in a temple located in theSreng Desert. Macuil attemps to drive Claude's army off but is then defeated and falls into a deep slumber. Claude then seizes the opportunity to look for any weapons located in the area, eventually finding theSword of Begalta.

Personality

Macuil holds a great disdain for humanity, due to the crimes they committed against his brethren, the Children of the Goddess. As such, he refuses to participate in any current human wars and instead secludes himself in the desert. Because of this, there are few humans that are known to bear hisCrest—as he was likely not as willing to gift it to them likeSeiros,Indech,Cichol, andCethleann did, and House Nuvelle fromAdrestia used magic to conceal their Crest of Noa as if it were of Macuil's—and there is only one known weapon tied to his Crest.

    Shez: Oh, right. I remember hearing how Saint Indech made 'em a long time ago.
    Seteth: I see someone has been studying. Many people mistakenly believe the sacred weapons were forged by Saint Macuil. In truth, most were forged by Indech, then imbued with power by Macuil.
