“C,crap! My father's grudge... I will have his revenge!”
—Battle Quote with Seliph

Danann is an enemy character from Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. He is the son of Lombard, the half-brother of Lex, the father of Brian, Iuchar, and Iucharba, and the King of Isaach for the period of time from the Battle of Belhalla to Seliph's uprising in Isaach.

Danann is mentioned by Lombard in Chapter 5, who refers to him as being useless, as he is unable to quash a small uprising in Isaach. Danann eventually ascends the throne, whereupon he rules with an oppressive hand, going so far as to lower the social class of the Issacian people to that of slaves. When Seliph initiates the liberation of Isaach in Chapter 6, Danann attempts to stop him. Unfortunately for Danann, the mighty Helswath is in Brian's capable hands at the time. Without his mighty axe to support him, Danann perishes at the hands of Seliph's army.

Overview

Danann is very difficult to defeat in close combat, as he at a high level of 25, when a majority of characters obtained by that time are at relatively low levels. However, Danann does not have the Helswath in his possession, and is thus unable to attack at a range. This thus gives the player the chance to drain his Hit Points with characters such as Arthur or Lester. It is also possible to Boss Abuse Danann, on the condition that the character being trained can survive at least one hit or attack at a range.
