Uhai
| ||||||||||||
|
| “ | Holding a woman hostage during battle is shameful. You, too, are of Sacae, and I've a mind to show you mercy. I will let you die with a sword in your hands. But rest assured... I will kill you all here. But be of good cheer! In dying, you shall all be spared the calamity that is to come! | ” | — Uhai |

Uhai (Japanese:ウハイUhai) is aboss appearing inFire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. He is a member of theBlack Fang, codenamed the Soaring Hawk, who defected from his nativeSacae due to his beliefs ofBrendan Reed's ideology.
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade
Role
Duringchapter 18 (19 Hector), he is sent by theBlack Fang to retrieve the escapedNinian and as such ambushes the army led byEliwood,Hector, and fellow SacaeanLyn, despite knowing the Black Fang was no longer what it once was due toNergal now being in charge. Upon first appearing, he initially takes Lyn captive, but ultimately lets her go because he wishes for her to die in a more honorable fashion in battle. Uhai is defeated in the battle, but not before giving his opponents directions to theDragon's Gate, after which the lords all wonder what would have happened had they met him under different circumstances. Sometime afterward, Uhai'squintessence is harvested and brought to Nergal.
Uhai is one of the bosses remanifested asmorphs by Nergal in thefinal chapter; his morph is paired with two genericSniper morphs in the southeastern room, the first one opened; the player's army eventually defeat Uhai's morph as well as all of the other remanifested morphs in their quest to defeat Nergal, finally putting him to rest.

Personality
Uhai holds respect for fellowSacaens, likeLyn. Like many otherBlack Fang members, Uhai does not trustNergal or the changes he has brought to the Fang. Despite his misgivings, he served the Fang to the end, even if he did give Eliwood's group crucial information against the Fang upon his death.
While Uhai himself makes no mention of it,Aion andTeodor appear to have seen Uhai as a rival, or at least an obstacle in their progress as Black Fang members.[1][2]

Trivia

- Uhai's portrait is based off theSacaen portrait used by severalbosses inFire Emblem: The Binding Blade; primarily the clothing is reused with different coloration and he received a unique head.
- Uhai gains an extra point ofconstitution, and as a mounted unit loses one point ofaid, as amorph in thefinal chapter, a trait no other non-generic morph in the chapter possesses.
- Uhai has a battle quote withRath in thetwoprototypes, suggesting Rath may have initially been planned to joinEliwood's party earlier at some point in development.[3]
- In the NTSC English version ofThe Blazing Blade, the weapon that Uhai drops in the final chapter, Rienfleche, has an erroneous help text description: "Can strike consecutively". As it has no such effect; this was changed in the PAL English version to match that of the other S-rank weapons: "For experienced units only." This error is not present in Rienfleche's Japanese description.
