⚫ | Colm has surprisingly high growths for a thief, but his low bases and swordlock mean that using him in combat tends to be tricky at best. He can take or dodge a few hits, but he needs quite a bit of leveling to become remotely self-sufficient when taking out enemies. Despite Colm's weak combat, he is still useful for a time because of his [[Thief]] utility, since he is the first [[Thief]] in the game and will probably stay that way for some time. His lack of combat skill doesn't really matter, since he tends to be running around picking locks instead of fighting. However, Colm's usefulness in this regard becomes somewhat obsolete once Chest Keys become available for purchase in the Overworld. Colm is still useful mid-game, helping out in Fog of War battles and in the desert chapter to help search for items in the sand, and while he is inferior as a combat unit compared to others, he is still capable of holding his own with training and investment. |
||

⚫ | Colm has two promotions, [[Assassin]] and [[Rogue]], both of which give him nearly identical stat bonuses. As an [[Assassin]], Colm gains the [[Lethality|Silencer]] skill and a boost to his sword rank, but he also loses his ability to steal items from enemies. While capable of opening doors and chests, he will still require [[lockpick]]s to open them. As a Rogue, Colm can pick doors and chests without needing Lockpicks and retains his Steal ability. |

+ | Colm is generally better off as an Assassin, as it grants him the [[Lethality|Silencer]] ability to kill off enemy units in a single hit. While some criticals may simply just end up killing the unit, the ability is particularly useful against high Defence targets like [[General]]s and [[Draco Zombie]]s. Likewise, [[Rennac]] will probably have been recruited and already arrives as a [[Rogue]], essentially making Rogue Colm mostly redundant in battle. Likewise, his support with Neimi scales very quickly and provides both of them with additional critical rate when near each other, further increasing the chances of Silencer activating. However, the class has low Strength; if [[Ross (The Sacred Stones)|Ross]] is already a [[Pirate]], it's best to only promote Colm once Ross has been promoted to a [[Berserker]]. |

− | Colm has surprisingly high growths for a thief, but unfortunately, his low bases, weak promotion, and permanent sword lock make him a very poor combat unit overall when compared to the plethora of other sword units.. His low [[Strength]] and the low might of [[sword]] will often leave him unable to deal significant damage to most enemies. With his extremely low [[HP]], [[Defense]], and [[Resistance]], he will have to rely on his high yet unreliable avoid to survive attacks, which leaves him critically endangered to any common [[lance (weapon)|lance]] wielding enemy. His only main positive attribute is his above average speed and high HP growths, making him surprisingly nimble to dodge attacks, double enemies, and have some leeway to take a stray hit here and there. |

||
− | Colm requires either an Ocean seal or a Master seal to promote, both very limited items and are better used on other units who are more effective in his roles. His growths and earlier access makes him an overall better [[Rouge]] than [[Rennac]], but will not outperform [[Joshua]] or [[Marisa]] as an [[Assassin]]. Overall, Colm has a purpose as a niche classic thief character, being slightly superior to [[Rennac]] overall, but does not standout amongst the other stronger, more noteworthy playable characters in game. |

—Colm at the second attack on Renvall
Colm is a playable character in the game Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. He first appears after Chapter 2 and can be recruited in Chapter 3 by having Neimi talk to him inside the bandit's hideout. They can automatically have a support conversation. Before being recruited he will appear as a green unit and will walk around opening doors and treasure chests in the hideout.
Profile
A chivalrous thief from Renais and a childhood friend of Neimi, Colm managed to steal Eirika's bracelet while 'walking by'. Colm used his abilities as a thief to keep himself, and later Neimi alive. He would steal items of value from people that seemed wealthy to pay for necessities for himself and Neimi.
During Chapter 3, Colm infiltrated a bandit hideout to find Neimi's lost handmirror, stolen by bandits. Neimi, who was worried for Colm's safety, found Eirika and convinced her group to go with her to the Bandit's Hideout and find Colm.
Personality
Colm is rather snide and arrogant, but genuinely cares for Neimi. He is also quite proud of his thieving prowess. It is often hard to tell if Colm is exhibiting his uncaring for others or if he is simply clumsy. In a conversation with Moulder it is revealed he had burned a pack filled with Moulder's belongings twice, Moulder then says he is 'concerned about the condition of Colm's soul.'
Colm has a weakness for Neimi being sad or crying, which she does quite often. He will often try to pretend he doesn't care or pester her about being a "crybaby". If the two obtain an A Support, Colm will be unable to keep up his façade and comfort Neimi.

Colm has surprisingly high growths for a thief, but his low bases and swordlock mean that using him in combat tends to be tricky at best. He can take or dodge a few hits, but he needs quite a bit of leveling to become remotely self-sufficient when taking out enemies. Despite Colm's weak combat, he is still useful for a time because of his Thief utility, since he is the first Thief in the game and will probably stay that way for some time. His lack of combat skill doesn't really matter, since he tends to be running around picking locks instead of fighting. However, Colm's usefulness in this regard becomes somewhat obsolete once Chest Keys become available for purchase in the Overworld. Colm is still useful mid-game, helping out in Fog of War battles and in the desert chapter to help search for items in the sand, and while he is inferior as a combat unit compared to others, he is still capable of holding his own with training and investment.
Colm has two promotions, Assassin and Rogue, both of which give him nearly identical stat bonuses. As an Assassin, Colm gains the Silencer skill and a boost to his sword rank, but he also loses his ability to steal items from enemies. While capable of opening doors and chests, he will still require lockpicks to open them. As a Rogue, Colm can pick doors and chests without needing Lockpicks and retains his Steal ability.
Colm is generally better off as an Assassin, as it grants him the Silencer ability to kill off enemy units in a single hit. While some criticals may simply just end up killing the unit, the ability is particularly useful against high Defence targets like Generals and Draco Zombies. Likewise, Rennac will probably have been recruited and already arrives as a Rogue, essentially making Rogue Colm mostly redundant in battle. Likewise, his support with Neimi scales very quickly and provides both of them with additional critical rate when near each other, further increasing the chances of Silencer activating. However, the class has low Strength; if Ross is already a Pirate, it's best to only promote Colm once Ross has been promoted to a Berserker.

Meet Some of the Heroes
Capable Thief Colm | |||
---|---|---|---|
Here's Colm! He's a thief with a heart of gold who comes from Lark, a village in Magvel's kingdom of Renais. | |||
When his village was burned down by bandits, Colm turned to thievery to survive. Having picked up the tricks of the trade, he started picking locks in the bandits' hideout, hoping to steal back his friend Neimi's treasured keepsake. | |||
It was there that he met Eirika, the princess of Renais, who had heard about him from Neimi. With nowhere left to go, Colm and Neimi decided to join her army. | |||
Colm continued to improve his skills with the help of some healthy competition from Rennac, a master thief. He looks out for others and refuses to ever give in—and I'd say that makes him a perfect fit for the Order of Heroes! | |||
Closely Associated Characters | |||

Recruit Conversation
- Neimi: C-Colm…
- Colm: Neimi?! What are you doing here? I told you to wait for me, didn't I?
- Neimi: I couldn't… It's too dangerous. C'mon, let's go home.
- Colm: We don't have a home! Don't you get it? Look, just leave everything to me. I can take care of it in a flash, but I don't need a clumsy oaf like you tagging along.
- Neimi: But…but…
- Colm: Oh, this is ridiculous. We'll talk later. Don't leave my side, Neimi.
- Neimi: I-- All right.
