Character from Fire Emblem by Intelligent Systems / Nintendo
An artist trapped in a soldier's life — a merchant's son who paints beauty in a world that rewards violence and doesn't know how to reconcile the two.
Ignatz wants to be a painter. His family needs him to be a knight. He enrolled at the Officers Academy out of obligation and discovered he's a good archer and a natural tactician — skills he resents because they pull him further from art. He is observant, creative, and perpetually underselling himself. His supports reveal a sensitivity to beauty that makes him one of the game's most quietly philosophical characters. He sees the goddess in nature, the divine in a well-composed sunset, and struggles with the violence his training requires him to commit.
Small and bespectacled with green hair and a gentle, uncertain face. He carries a bow because it keeps him at a distance from the fighting, and he sketches in margins of his tactical notes.
