Reyson

"Though the price may be my life, I will never cooperate with you!"

- Reyson to Oliver in Path of Radiance

Reyson (リュシオン, Ryushion?) is the prince of the fallen kingdom of Serenes, and one of the few herons that survived the Serenes Massacre. He is also the younger brother of Rafiel, but having lived in Phoenicis for the several decades, along with his ailing father, the Heron King Lorazieh, he has picked up many personality traits from the Hawks. He is also described by Ike in one conversation with Rafiel that he wishes he could be more like Tibarn, the Hawk King. He possesses a temper and an iron will that are quite lacking in his brother. Initially, Reyson bears a hatred for all Beorc that stems from the destruction caused by the people of Begnion in the Serenes Massacre. He is rescued after Apostle Sanaki suspected that Oliver still held illegal laguz slaves, and sent Ike to inspect Duke Oliver's grounds. Once Reyson talks to Naesala, he partially forgives Naesala for having sold him to Duke Tanas of Begnion, as long as Naesala stops aiding Daein in battle and withdraws from the current battle posthaste. Naesala accepts the truce and leaves along with his ravens. Naesala keeps his promise and, in an act of retribution, saves Reyson's sister, Leanne, from captivity, helping Crimea in a change of heart decision. In the final battle of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, he aids Ike.

In Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, he sings the Galdr of Rebirth (usually a two-man Gladr) to cure Renning, King Ramon's brother and Elincia's uncle, of the feral elixir invented by Izuka. After Radiant Dawn's events finish and the bird tribes unite, he becomes a leader in the political arena.

Like all herons, he does not attack (but he is able to do so using cards) and plays a supporting role on the battlefield. He lets one adjacent unit that has used its turn act again, but when he transforms, he refreshes all surrounding units.
