Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have prepared yet another character introduction for Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Today’s update is for Felix, who is played by Ryuuichi Hase in the Japanese version.
Felix is the heir of a Duke of the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus. He’s also Dimitri’s childhood friend, who he gave the nickname “Boar”. Felix can be sarcastic and a lone wolf, but is focused on honing his skills with the sword. That way of thinking has him challenging all strong people he meets to a duel immediately.
