Yoder

Yodel is a high-ranking bishop of the Elimine church and a playable unit in Fire Emblem: Fūin no Tsurugi. Yodel had a romantic relationship with Niime that fell through for unknown reasons, although it is hinted in a memory during his B-support conversation with Niime that it ended because he was unwilling to avenge his murdered sister, something Niime could not understand. Yodel speaks with Roy during several different parts of the story and is available for use late in the game. He brings with him one of two legendary weapons; either Murgleis, if you took the Ilia route or Maltet if you took the Sacae route. He also comes equipped with the Saint's Staff.

Due to his low starting stats, late appearance, and low, useless growth rates, Yodel is meant to be a subpar replacement for Saul or Ellen. His only redeeming stats are his resistance and his A rank in staves and light magic, so use him only to gain supports or if you don't care about having a good staff user or light magic user. If Ellen and/or Saul is either unpromoted or died, Yodel is your one and only candidate for Aureola. His low stats mean that some enemies can double him, and with his low defense, often can get killed in 2 hits. However, with Aureola, he can smash Mamkutes and Idoun without fear of counterattack. Of course, if Saul and/or Ellen are premoted, they will outclass Yodel in almost all stats. His weak Con is of no help, and he can't wield Purge or Aureola without being slowed by 3 or 4 speed, respectively. You can reduce this with a Body Ring, but there are much better characters to use it on.

Trivia

 * He shares his name with an boss unit from Book 2 of Monshou no Nazo, who is also a bishop.
