Noire

"I AM BLOOD AND THUNDER! I AM RIGHTEOUS FURY! ...I AM YOUR FUTURE DAUGHTER!"

- Noire's alternate personality when introducing herself to her mother.

Noire (ノワール Nowāru, Noir in the Japanese version) is a playable character in Fire Emblem: Awakening, the daughter of Tharja from the future, and can potentially be the sister of Morgan. Her birthday is October 7th.

She is voiced by Seiko Yoshida in the Japanese version and by Michelle Ruff in the English version.

Profile
Noire tries to seek approval from her mother due to lack of skill with casting hexes. She was used as a guinea pig for her mother's curses, and has developed a cowardly and negative personality. She has something of a split personality that is more brash and aggressive that she refers to as her "inner demon" as a result from a talisman, a gift from her mother from the future to deal with her meek and shy personality. Her support with Brady reveals that she is anemic. Before the start of the game, she had never handled a bow before. Like the other children, Noire wears the ring she got from her mother. She is the fastest to escape in the army.

In her paralogue, she is captured by the bandit Izasa to be sold off to the slave trade. As luck would have it, Chrom and his army were near by. While in her hiding place, she finds a bow and leaves to fight off the bandits until she joins up with Chrom's army and defeat the bandits together. After the battle she goes to talk to Tharja and shows her ring, the same ring Tharja has. Tharja is suspicious and threatens to curse her. Noire slips on her talisman and her personality drastically changes. She declares herself as Tharja's daughter. Tharja asks about the talisman, which according to Noire, gives her a more aggressive personality. Tharja takes it away, which shocks Noire as she relies on it to be strong. But Tharja assures her daughter by leaving Noire's retribution to her and to live as a normal girl.

After the war, Noire decides to stay with Tharja and works as her assistant. Some wonder if she did this to protect her infant self or spend the time she never had with her mother.

In her supports with Tharja, Noire tries her best to learn Dark Magic from Tharja by copying her movements. Though Noire cannot seem to grasp the concept, Tharja believes that she has massive potential. In the end, Tharja tells Noire that she won't teach her Dark Magic, but instead decides to teach her more important things instead. In her support with her father, Noire is used as a guinea pig for Tharja's curses. Her father goes off talk Tharja into removing the curse from her. While Tharja does, she puts the curse on him instead. Noire tells him that this always happened between him and Tharja in the future. At the A-support Noire's father confiscates Tharja's cursing tools to get her to stop cursing Noire, showing her that things will be different this time around. However the tender moment doesn't last long as Tharja finds him and promptly chases him. Noire happily realizes that the future can change for the better.
