(Completely biased overview section. Sure, his skill and speed rarely even hit 23 without stat boosters, but his luck balances them out. Essentially, on average, he has average stats in the end.)

Hayden's stats will not be too shabby once he starts leveling up, though his Skill and Speed appear to be a bit low for a Ranger. However, these low stats are offset by good [[Luck]] and [[Constitution]] ratings, allowing him to prevent him from being weighed down. His stats, in the end, are nothing special; but they are not that bad either. Chances are, in the Creature Campaign, other bow and sword users are already well-trained, but after leveling, Hayden should be up to par.
You'd really expect a Ranger to have better Speed than him. He's mediocre without any stat boosting items. Again, anyone else is quite a bit better than him. Use someone, anyone else for your bow user.

—Hayden

Hayden (ヘイデン Heiden) is a non-playable character in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. He is the king of Frelia and the father of Innes. Due to his friendship with King Fado, he grants Princess Eirika shelter in Frelia's capital, but ends up later in lending Eirika's troupe some help in her cause to find her brother Ephraim. Sometime during the war, Hayden sent his elder son, Innes, to lead the fight against Grado. After the twins of Renais are reunited and Grado's true goal is revealed, he is last seen giving the party advice and supplies, then sends Innes and Eirika to warn Jehanna and Rausten, while Ephraim plans to march towards Grado's capital directly.

After meeting him for the first time in the game, King Hayden will provide the party with 5,000 gold, adds Vanessa, Gilliam and Moulder to the ranks, and the convoy to manage your items.

As a Ranger, he can be gained through the Creature Campaign. Coincidentally, he is the only unlockable character who does not die during the story.

The game describes him as the venerable Sage King, suggesting that he is wise and honorable, rather than referring the class he is playable as.
