Ike

Ike (アイク, Aiku) is the son of Commander Greil of the Greil Mercenaries. The story begins with Ike's last day as a trainee in his father's mercenary company, and follows him as he grows in power to lead a military force for the purpose of restoring an entire nation.

Ike is the first central main character in the Fire Emblem series not to be of royal lineage or noble birth; however, had his father Greil, who had been known as Gawain, not renounced his generalship in Daein, Ike would have been born a noble. He is eventually granted the title of Lord by Crimea's Princess Elincia so that he may officially lead the Crimean Liberation Army as its general.

At the end of Chapter twenty-seven, Ike duels the Black Knight to avenge his father's death using Ragnell, a sword blessed by the goddess. The sword is one of only a few weapons that can damage the Black Knight's blessed armor. After their final duel, Ike continues to lead the army towards the Crimean capital and defeats Ashnard, ending the Daein occupation and allowing Elincia to take her proper place as the nation's queen.

Ike is a Ranger and has the ability to promote to the Lord class.

Ike will be a playable character in the upcoming Wii game Super Smash Bros. Brawl. One of his special moves will be "Aether", which was a skill that he held within the game
