Corrin (カムイ,Kamui) is a character from theFire Emblem series. As the playableavatar inFire Emblem Fates, Corrin is created by the player and can be customized in a variety of ways, including name, appearance, and gender. Corrin is also the main protagonist ofFates, and seeks to stop the conflict between their surrogate homes ofNohr andHoshido.

Corrin debuted in theSuper Smash Bros. series as a playable character inSuper Smash Bros. 4 viadownloadable content, and returns as an unlockable character inSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Origin[edit]

LikeMark inFire Emblem,Kris inFire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem: Heroes of Light and Shadow, andRobin inFire Emblem Awakening, Corrin is the customizable avatar character inFire Emblem Fates. Their gender, physical appearance, voice, stat builds, and secondary class are customizable by the player before starting a new game. Corrin starts the game as a Nohr prince/princess. Corrin and their royal families carry the blood ofdragons, being able to transform themselves or parts of their body to that of a dragon using theirDragonstone. They can also use Dragon Veins to alter the surrounding terrain in various ways, a power granted from the ancestral First Dragons.

Fire Emblem Fates is set on the territories ofHoshido andNohr. Their royalty share a similar line of descent from the First Dragons, but they worship different deities: the Dawn Dragon and the Dusk Dragon, respectively. Corrin was born in Hoshido but kidnapped to Nohr at a young age, being isolated in the Northern Fortress during their childhood. Once they become of age and best their older brother,Xander, in a practice match, KingGaron deems them worthy, providing them with the swordGanglari to be used on the Hoshidan prisonersKaze andRinkah, among others. Corrin succeeds in defeating the prisoners but, out of compassion, refuses to kill them. Enraged, Garon has Xander kill the prisoners instead, but Corrin briefly clashes with Xander untilLeo steps in to dispatch them (secretly leaving them alive) and convince Garon to lessen Corrin's punishment.

Garon sends Corrin to inspect a Hoshidan fortress above the Bottomless Canyon to pardon their crime. However, one of Garon's men,Hans, provokes the Hoshidans into battle and knocksGunter, one of Corrin's companions, into the abyss of the canyon. Hoshidan soldiers later find and capture Corrin, who eventually recognizes them as the long-lost member of the Hoshidan royal family. Corrin meets their blood relatives and the songstressAzura, a former Nohrian Princess raised in Hoshido, in Hoshido's capital city. However, a hooded assassin attempts to kill Corrin, with Corrin's mother, QueenMikoto, shielding them at the cost of her life. Out of distress, Corrin's dragon blood is awakened, transforming them into a Feral Dragon and causing them to rampage. Their rampage routs the hooded assassin as well as other mysterious soldiers in pursuit of Hoshido. Corrin is calmed down by Azura, who singsLost in Thoughts All Alone to revert them to their human form. Afterwards, Corrin is given a dragonstone to control their dragon form at will, and claims the legendary Yato blade, which is said to belong to the one who will save the world. The Hoshidan and Nohrian royal families, now aware of Corrin's heritage, declare war on each other and eventually meet in battle for both conquest of their respective lands and custody of Corrin. Upon witnessing this great struggle, Corrin is forced to make a choice over who to side with.

This choice is dependent on which campaign the player takes, which all diverge at this point. In theBirthright campaign, Corrin sides with Hoshido and helps push the Nohr forces back, and is labeled a traitor in the process. In theConquest campaign, Corrin sides with Nohr and helps push the Hoshido forces back, and is labeled a traitor in the process. In theRevelation campaign, Corrin refuses to take a side and instead forms an underground resistance movement in an effort to defeat both kingdoms and establish peace between them.

Corrin starts in theNohr Prince/Nohr Princess class, a class-exclusive to them and their child,Kana. In this class, they can wield swords and Dragonstones. They can also transform parts of their body to attack when attacking usingDragon Fang skill. With a Master Seal, Corrin can promote to aNohr Noble and gain the ability to wield tomes, or to aHoshido Noble and gain the ability to use staves. In addition to this, Corrin has a wealth of other options - they can reclass into their secondary class with a Heart Seal, their spouse's base class with a Partner Seal, or an A+ supporting character's base class with a Friendship Seal. As they are able to Support almost nearly every playable character in the game, this gives them a myriad of possibilities for reclassing. Finally, they can use any of the various special reclassing items to access otherwise inaccessible classes, such as the Dread Fighter, Ballistician, or even character-specific classes likeMarth's Lodestar class.

SinceFates, both the default male and female versions of Corrin have appeared in otherFire Emblem games. Both versions of Corrin can be summoned as illusory allies inFire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia using the matchingSmashamiibo, and both versions appear as units the player can recruit in the crossover gameFire Emblem Heroes. Female Corrin also appears prominently as a playable character inFire Emblem Warriors, with the male version of Corrin available as well outside of story mode. Most recently,Fire Emblem Engage features female Corrin as one of the game's numerous Emblems, ethereal clones of protagonists from various otherFire Emblem games who dwell within special rings.

InSuper Smash Bros. 4[edit]

As a playable character[edit]

Corrin is adownloadable newcomer inSuper Smash Bros. 4 released on February 3rd, 2016, alongsideBayonetta. Instead of being bundled with a new stage, like with the other DLC newcomers, two new music tracks forColiseum andCastle Siege will be unlocked alongside Corrin.

Corrin is placed currently at 13th place out of 55 total characters on theSSB4tier list, ranking them at the top of the B tier. Corrin's reach is their strongest positive, with their forward smash being notable as the longest reaching in the game. Their range is also complimented well with their overall decent frame data, and, much likeMarth, they possess a tipper that deals significantly more knockback. Yet, just like Marth, Corrin does have issues scoring KOs from up close, as the launch power in their non-tipper hits have relatively little knockback. They also suffer from overall mediocre mobility in both the air and on the ground. Currently, Corrin has fairly solid tournament representation and results to their name.

Corrin's side special, Dragon Lunge, is no normal attack—skewer a surface with a lance-like arm, and it will suspend you in the air. Pin an enemy while doing this, and you can keep them in place and then follow up with a flying kick forward or back or just jump up. You can only thrust the lance once before landing.

Trivia[edit]

• Corrin is the second character in the series to be added before the worldwide releases of their game (afterFire Emblem fighterRoy). However, Roy's game wasn't released anywhere at the time of his debut inSmash, while Corrin's had by then been released in Japan.
• Male Corrin's artwork inSSB4 is similar to his official art inFates, albeit with his left hand in a different position and his sword being angled more downwards. Female Corrin's artwork, however, is identical to her official art inFates, but she now wears black stockings covering her inner thighs. Both artworks also feature the two wielding the Omega Yato instead of the standard Yato.
• With a debut on June 2015, Corrin was the most recently debuted playable character following their release asDLC forSSB4.
• Though Corrin appears as male by default inSmash, most media released afterFates more prominently features female Corrin, such asFire Emblem Heroes (where female Corrin is used as the icon forFates),Fire Emblem Warriors,Fire Emblem Engage andFire Emblem Shadows. This is also reflected inUltimate, as female Corrin is present on the difficulty selection banner forClassic Mode.
• Corrin,Luigi,Yoshi,Snake, andJoker are the only fighters to have featured material from upcoming games inSmash, whether by means of their universe's content or moveset—in Corrin's case, their inclusion as DLC marked the debut of the English version of "Lost in Thoughts All Alone", two weeks before the American launch ofFire Emblem Fates.
• Corrin is the onlyFire Emblem character whose onscreen appearance does not involve teleportation onto the stage using warp magic.
• As with the other fighters with male and female variants, the male and female variants of Corrin are established as separate entities in at least one instance. InFire Emblem Warriors, one gendered variant of Corrin can encounter the other as an enemy in a bonus mission. Both can also be seen separately inSora's trailer.
