One of the main focuses of recent Fire Emblem games is the possibility to recruit a lot of characters for your army. Fire Emblem: Awakening is not so different in this regard, with a lot of characters available for recruitment. As always, many of the characters can join you automatically but for some others you will have to take specific steps to make them join like deploying a specific character and make them talk with the possible recruit. With the many advanced classes available in the game you may want to recruit as many characters as possible to create the most diverse army: some classes are only useful in specific situations and that’s where the many characters of the game will come in. In this guide we will be listing all the characters available, both automatic recruitments and optionals, with small descriptions for each character: a lot of the automatically recruited characters often have something they’re really good at and I always recommend to not change their class to a different type. You will have plenty of occasions to do so with the optional characters: unlike the story ones, they have some more average features and are perfect to experiment with customization. So save your seals for these characters.

To unlock Paralogue 16 you will have to give Nowi a Support Relationship of S. To recruit her you will have to get close to her with Nawi and talk: once the talking is done, she’ll join your army. Being a special character, customizing her is going to be impossible but still she can be pretty useful in battle. If you have been using Yarne in battle you know what to expect since they behave almost in the same way: she’s pretty powerful and can be used in the frontlines to dish out some serious damage without problems. Make sure she’s got some good support from her allies to make her even more powerful: supports improving her attack and speeds will make her truly deadly. Nah also works nicely as a tank: in both offense and defense you have a solid unit in your hands a great addition to your team.
