Ryoma

Ryoma (リョウマ, Ryouma) is a playable character in Fire Emblem Warriors. He first appeared in Fire Emblem Fates.–and is playable in the Birthright and Revelations versions. He has also appeared in the Heroes mobile game.

Personality
The oldest of the Hoshidan royal siblings, Ryoma is wise, charismatic, and devoted to the samurai way of life. He is also a cautious leader who prefers being prudent before taking action. When faced with overwhelming odds, however, he becomes defiant and is unlikely to give in until the bitter end. His virtuous traits earn him the admiration and envy of those around him. He bears the red Gleamstone.

Gameplay
As a Swordmaster, Ryoma's attacks are both quick and fierce. His katana, the Raijinto, takes its name from the Shinto god of thunder (similarly, Takumi's weapon, the Fujin Yumi, is named after the Shinto god of wind). He also gains access to the Warriors-exclusive High Prince class (in Fire Emblem, a Swordmaster is already promoted from Samurai or Myrmidon.)

His special Crest is Astra, which is a classic Fire Emblem Swordmaster skill. Normally enabling its user to attack five times for half regular damage (though each has a chance to critically strike) with a single action, in Warriors, it grants Hasty Attacks and boosts Ryoma's attack speed.
