Keeping in typical Fighter fashion, Garcia has great potential for raw health and damage, while being lackluster in defensive stats. His defense and resistance aren't ''too'' worrysome since his health pool can soak up plenty of damage, but his low speed growth may leave him unable to double attack most enemies as the game goes on, rendering his great strength moot. This is all that keeps him from being a near-ideal Fighter, however, making him a prime candidate for any spare [[Speedwing]] you come across.

“Yes. To prepare myself for battle, I visualize the enemy in front of me. Then, during battle, I can focus all my attention on them. If you want to survive this war, you must focus all your attention on the enemy.”
—Garcia talking to Neimi in a support conversation

Garcia(ガルシア Garushia)is a playable character in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. He can be found in Chapter 2 of the game: The Protected. In the chapter, Bandits are attacking villages in the area of Ide and Garcia and his son narrowly escape their hometown to get away.

In the level, Eirika and her small group arrive with a mountain range separating them from Garcia and his injured son, Ross. It is suggested that the player use Vanessa to fly over the mountain range and bring Ross over to so that he can be healed by Moulder and protected from further harm. Garcia can (usually) take care of himself. After Eirika talks to Ross, the player can use Vanessa to put Ross on the other side of the mountain so he can talk to Garcia. They do not need to recruit him in the chapter, however, as he will automatically join after the battle's conclusion.

Profile

Garcia is a villager from Renais who was once a mighty military leader -- Well-respected in all the countries of the continent. However, he retired from the army when his wife Risa died, in order to raise their young son Ross; he laments that he spent so much time focused purely on the military and didn't spend as much time as he could have with his wife, and is thus dedicated to being a good father to his son.

One day, however, Garcia is plunged back into war when his village is destroyed, forcing Ross and himself to fight their way past the bandits to escape -- This battle brings them into a meeting with Eirika's group early on in their mission. Seth, who has admired Garcia ever since he was a squire, discovers his idenity and asks him to join the troupe, but Garcia is reluctant until Ross decides to join as well to prove himself to his father -- Then, accepting that he doesn't have to shelter his son any longer, Garcia takes up his role as a fighter for Renais once more.

Garcia is a fierce fighter, but a gentle man off the battlefield. He greatly enjoys life and likes to have fun by involving himself in physical activities like archery. In a support conversation he becomes friends with Dozla, the berserker who is around his age: the two will then have fun trying their hands at archery, magic and other methods of fighting together. also, his supports with Seth show that his wilder side is resurfacing after many years of laying low; in Seth's words, "we have awakened an incredible warrior."

Garcia tries to diminish his reputation as a great military leader because his son Ross belives he must live up to and surpass that image his father had. Garcia, however, would rather Ross be more careful as, after losing his wife, he is very afraid of losing his only child, which is shown in their supports.

In Neimi's support conversations, he reveals he knew Neimi's grandfather from his days as a soldier in Renais Castle; the man was dubbed the "Single-Arrow Legend" Zeltha for his prowess in the bow, for he never needed more than one arrow to dispatch his target even when he went hunting. It is further evident in conversations that he has with Neimi that her grandfather had passed on some of his training skills to her, like to stare hard at something for prolonged periods of time to strengthen her eyesight.

Quotes

Recruit Conversation

Ross: Dad!
Garcia: Ross?! Boy, what did I tell you!? What are you doing here? Don't worry about me. Hurry up and get yourself to safety.
Ross: Did you really think I could just run away while you fight, Dad? You taught me that fighters fight for what's important to them! There's no way I'm leaving! I'm fighting just like you!
Garcia: Ross... All right, listen to me. We'll cut our way out of here together!
