One reason why I love FE:
They have awesome sidecharacters.
I'm pretty sure most of you know that I love sidecharacters. They're the salt in my fandomsoup. It doesn't matter if they only have a few lines or are supporting characters that turn up two or three times. They might even die before the story takes place.
There only need to be a few lines that hit exactly my lovebuttons.
Yes, I've heard of how King Hayden dotes on his precious little daughter.
Do you realize how much your words would fill Father's heart with grief? -- Are we speaking of the same man? Our father will likely outlive us all.
There, it's that easy. They just need one bit of characterisation to make me want to imagine the rest of them.
And FE has just many such moments. In no other medium have I met that many awesome sidecharacters. (And I until now I've only been able to get into gaming fandoms. Never in book fandoms o_o)
