Nintendo introduced a new Fire Emblem Engage character named Jade. The official Fire Emblem Twitter shared art and video clips detailing the personality and qualities of the new game-original lady knight.
Check it out below.
ジェーデ（CV:三宅麻理恵さん）は「ブロディア王国」の王城兵で、ディアマンド王子の臣下。とても冷静で任務に忠実な騎士です。加えて無口なので、冷酷非道と称されますが、実は陽気で面白いことが好きです。困ったことがあると、ところ構わず瞑想を始めます。#FEエンゲージ pic.twitter.com/30RS9ZcAoD

In Fire Emblem Engage, Jade is a royal knight from the nation of Brodia, a militaristic kingdom led by the character Morion the Conquerer. Jade is a retainer to Diamant, Brodia’s crown prince and one of Fire Emblem Engage‘s Lord-class characters. Jade is described as calm and level-headed, taking her duties seriously. Her general reticence makes people think she’s cold-hearted, but she enjoys cheery things and good humor. Jade meditates when confronted with a problem.
Check out a clip from Fire Emblem Engage of Jade in conversation with Amber, who was introduced earlier.

In the clip, Jade asks Amber to tell her more stories, as she intends to use them as a reference for a novel that she’s writing. Amber obliges, boasting about his prowess riding alpacas. Unfortunately, a live demonstration isn’t possible, as alpacas don’t live in the current area.

Jade starts the game in the fortified “Axe Armor” class. The Axe Armor is described as a “heavily armored infantry unit that wields an axe.” Axe Armors have high defense ratings, but are vulnerable to magical damage. The demo clip shows Jade in heavy armor, with a shield and one-handed battle axe.
Fire Emblem Engage launches on the Nintendo Switch on January 20, 2023. Pre-orders are open.
