Sain: Just an Archetype? [Fire Emblem: Support Science #22] Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword
In this Support Science, I talk about Sain, from Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword (FE7). Sain is widely known as a womanizer, and while most of his support conversations focus on this side of his character, I believe that his other traits, like his loyalty, talent as a knight and, being a genuinely caring person, help ground his otherwise archetypical personality.
Sain's role in the story in Lyn Mode was pretty important – he helped find, secure and protect Lyn from the beginning. At the end, despite his transgressions, proves to be among Caelin's most reliable knights, even earning him the position of Knight Subcommander. A year later, Sain is still protecting Lady Lyndis alongside his boon companion, Kent and other members of the Lyndis Legion. Lyn reuniting with Eliwood now allows us to read into Sain's support conversations.
Sain's supports are an extension of his characterization displayed in Lyn mode. He is a hopeless womanizer sleaze, and he's a loyal friend. But, regardless of how light and breezy he is, on the battle field, well, I don’t want to say he’s a hardened veteran, but he was named knight subcommander for a reason. The problem with his supports though is that there are a handful of bafflingly flat support chains which do next to nothing, if nothing at all, to flesh out his character further. This leads a lot of people to determine that Sain isn’t a “good” character. And while I can agree that he’s not the deepest character in the cast, the moments where he is forced to change his behavior into someone who takes himself seriously, however seemingly short-lived they are, round him out and dispel the notion that he’s one note, or even a gag character.
