Devoted Heart
Faye is a playable Villager character who appears first in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, a remake of Fire Emblem Gaiden. Faye is defined by her crush on Alm, something which has been present since they were children, when he saved her from being killed by Slayde. Her whole world revolves around Alm, and she is always concerned for his safety. The reason she joined the Deliverance was purely to stay close to him as long as possible. Despite this, she knows that Alm's affections are for Celica alone, even before Alm himself knew. While she knows that her love for him will very probably go unrequited, she still dreams of a future where she is together with him and remains a constant supporter of Alm's ideals and goals. Faye appears to be negatively affected by the war and expresses a desire to kill solely to protect Alm, who suspects in their B support to be a form of coping. Notably, Faye is the only character in Echoes to have a support penalty, in which she has a lower chance of evading an enemy unit's attack when she is positioned near Alm, which suggests that she places protecting Alm above her own safety. Faye is somewhat suspicious and jealous of Celica, and is pleased about her fight with Alm at the start of Act 3, claiming she understands him better than Celica. Her negative attitude towards Celica has existed since childhood, and is reflected in her support bonus, which is one-sided; Celica receives bonuses from Faye, while Faye receives none from Celica. Albeit she is not the type of person to hold a grudge and is genuinely happy to see Celica again for the first time in seven years, and can even join her if she is still in Ram Village when Celica visits. Faye is also stubborn and hates being left behind by the village boys—if Alm does not recruit her, she later tells Celica how lonely she has been and that she had considered chasing after Alm to teach him a lesson because he brought Gray and Tobin but not her. Despite her feelings for Alm being her main characteristic, Faye does care for other people, like her other childhood friends from Ram Village, her family that she regularly sends letters to, and is a very selfless girl. However, she is a bit uncomfortable talking to people she has not known for long, as shown in her support conversations with Silque. These supports depict her as standoffish initially, though she does apologize later when she realizes that she misses Silque's presence and wants to be her friend.
