Polygon ranks the five weirdest recruitable characters in Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, a game whose roster is generally more grounded than recent Fire Emblem entries despite featuring several bizarre personalities:

– Jester: A bloodthirsty warrior concealing genuine regret and sadness behind his facade, expressing remorse in battle dialogue despite outward bravado about loving violence.
– Niinae: A sleepy, goth-dressed character who communicates with spirits only she can perceive and maintains an obsessive fixation on the goddess of death.
– Halvin: A traumatised archer plagued by fear, who screams when healed and insists "I had no choice" after combat despite her clearly competent abilities.
– Fabio: A dark-clothed priest with emo sensibilities who lists "suffering" and "dissecting beautiful things" among his interests, serving as an obsessive observer of another character.
– Majide: The ranking's winner, a delusional bandit with severe incompetence despite his grandiose belief that he should rule the world and win the Heroic Games.
