11Io is a playable character in Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, a mercenary working out of Dagsion who used to be a knight of the Kingdom of Arago. He is quiet, he keeps his own standards, and he rides a horse he did not buy.223344Profile556-FieldDetailJapanese nameイオ (Io)GenderMaleNationalityAragonianOccupationMercenaryFactionUnaffiliated and mercenary groupsRolePlayableFamilyUnnamed father, deceasedMountRocinanStarting classNot yet documentedPersonal skillMounted PushEnglish voiceClifford ChapinJapanese voiceHideyuki Kobayashi6+FieldDetailJapanese nameイオ (Io)GenderMaleNationalityAragonianOccupationMercenaryFactionUnaffiliated and mercenary groupsRolePlayableFamilyUnnamed father, deceasedMountRocinanStarting classNot yet documentedPersonal skillWith My SteedEnglish voiceClifford ChapinJapanese voiceHideyuki Kobayashi77Biography8899Io served the Kingdom of Arago as a knight, with the stated aim of protecting the happiness of its people. The king's self-righteous conduct wore that down until he left the country entirely, and he has supported himself as a mercenary in Dagsion since. He inherited his horse, Rocinan, from his late father, and the animal is treated in his profile as the one thing he carried out of his old life.10101111Personality12121313He is described as an ambitious young man with high standards. His listed likes are chivalry, self-discipline and Rocinan; his interests are caring for the horse and staying quiet. The last of those is listed as a preference rather than a manner, which fits a character who walked out of a knighthood rather than argue about it.14141515Personal Skill16161717SkillEffectMounted PushActivates when he uses his mobility to strike first, raising his hit rate18-The skill pays out for initiating, so it rewards spending his movement to reach an enemy rather than holding position and taking the counterattack. See Skills for how personal abilities sit alongside class and weapon skills.18+Mounted Push is learned at level 20. It rewards initiating combat while in a cavalry class; his personal ability, With My Steed, adds Shield +3 and Dodge +30 under the same condition.
