Rolf's Mother

Rolf's mother is a minor character in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. She appears in Chapter 3-1 as a villager. When one enters her home, she gives them a Seraph Robe. However, if Oscar, Boyd, or Rolf visit her, they leave before she can give it to them.

If Oscar, Boyd, or Rolf visited her, she will make an appearance in an Info Conversation.

Profile
In the past, she was married to Oscar and Boyd's father, thus being the two's stepmother. She eventually had a son with her husband, Rolf. However, after her husband became ill and bedridden, she abandoned him and the others, including her infant son, pursuing a new love interest.

Years later, when the Laguz Alliance wages war on Bengion, she meets one of her sons, and then tries to sneak into their camp, only to get caught. When Oscar and Boyd talk to her, she pleads to let her see Rolf, wanting to take him away from the war, and confesses that she regretted her decision. Despite the outrage of Boyd, Oscar complies with her request and goes to fetch Rolf.

However, Rolf refuses to meet her and instead wanted her to leave, considering her to be a mere stranger. He even told Oscar to tell her to never come back, calling her a nuisance.

She is never seen again afterwards.

Personality
Having made very little appearance, her personality can only be drawn from her conversations.

Rolf's mother is a very irresponsible woman, having chosen to abandon her husband, two stepsons, and her biological infant son, to pursue a new love interest when the burden of caring for them became too much when her husband became bedridden.

However, she confessed upon her reunion that she regretted her actions as soon as she made them, and upon seeing her sons again, she wished to reconcile, confessing that she had never forgotten them. If Boyd and Oscar see her in her house, she recognizes the two immediately upon seeing them. She also wished to take Rolf away fro the fighting, fearing for her son's life. When Rolf visited her house, she showed a sign of motherly affection, trying to give him something, somehow feeling a connection with him despite how she abandoned him as an infant.

Despite the remorse she felt, her irresponsibility cost her to be scorned not just by Boyd and Oscar, but even by Rolf, who considers her nothing more than a stranger, even outright refusing to meet her when she wanted to take him back.

Aside from that, she also showed fear towards the laguz, as she feared that they would eat her when her house was visited. When she is corrected, she apologizes and reprimands herself for being a coward. Though she still showed some fright when she was apprehended by a Gallian when she snuck into camp to see her sons.
