— Ephidel
Ephidel is an enemy in Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken. He's a morph created by Nergal, by the means of magic. He is rarely seen to express emotion, but it is speculated that he may be among the morphs that can not feel emotion, and can only fake it.
He's sent by his master to help with raising the revolution against the Lycian League by making false promises to the Marquesses and corrupting them. He then kills them when they can't stop Eliwood's army. When Eliwood secures Laus Castle, Ephidel goes back to the Dread Isle for further orders, and catches the Ostian spy Leila, ordering Jaffar to kill her. When Eliwood arrives at the Dragon's Gate, he then appears to abduct Ninian once again, ordering Marquess Laus to do battle with Eliwood's group. After these events, he is last seen when an controlled Ninian summons a dragon from the Dragon's Gate, but when Nils manages to snap her back to her senses, Ninian closes the gate on the dragon, resulting in firey explosion where Ephidel and Nergal are standing. Ephidel cries out to Nergal, but to no avail, as Ephidel is left to die while Nergal flees.
Though Ephidel has quite a hand instigating rebellion in Lycia, he is never seen in combat (the only exception is him taking out Lord Helman in a dialogue scene) in the game and does not even have internal battle data.

Archetype
A sub archetype to the Gharnef archetype, Ephidels are manipulators who work on a smaller scale, often manipulating several smaller events to defeat the party. Unlike Gharnefs, however, Ephidels are often command by a higher antagonist or, mostly in titles where a Gharnef is present as well, are being manipulated themselves.
List of Ephidels
There are others who are considered Ephidels, but this is the generally agreed upon list.
