Profile

Birthplace: Gallia (Raised in Crimea)
Title: Mercenary

A member of the Greil Mercenaries and the son of their leader, Greil.
While scouting the border between the kingdoms of Crimea and Daein, Ike's mercenary group comes upon Elincia, the princess of Crimea, on the run from Daein soldiers. The Greil Mercenaries agree to protect her, which turns out to be the first step of a long journey.
During the mission, Ike's straightforward personality and egalitarian attitude win him the respect of many. He forms deep bonds of trust with his fellow mercenaries in particular, treating them as his own family.
His swordsmanship is still rough around the edges, but he was taught by Greil himself, and his rapidly growing strength makes him a formidable warrior. Despite the praise he receives for his skill, he remains dedicated to training and shows no signs of overconfidence or complacency.

Hobby: Nodding off
Talent: Speed-eating
Values: The Greil Mercenaries, his family
Likes: Birds (how they live freely)
Dislikes: Fussy people

After Greil is slain by the Black Knight, a general of Daein, Ike succeeds his father as leader of the Greil Mercenaries.
As he grows accustomed to command, he learns that he can no longer charge recklessly into battle, and begins to adopt a more measured and responsible attitude. The strategies he puts together with the help of his advisers and careful assessments of the field win him many victories, solidifying his position as leader and earning him a knighthood from Crimea. Slowly but surely he becomes a worthy successor to his father, even as he crosses swords repeatedly with Greil's killer.
