“I can fight... I'm...very angry... The food here... It was terrible, and...they gave us hardly any... I... will have vengeance.”
—Ilyana in Radiant Dawn

Ilyana is a playable character from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. She is a Mage who joins the Greil Mercenaries in Chapter 8 of Path of Radiance.

Profile[]

Ilyana was born and raised in a town in Daein. She eventually decided to become a mage and left home to seek employment. When she first started out on her journey, life was particularly difficult, as she was often unable to satiate her hunger, causing her to collapse frequently. During one of these fainting spells, Ilyana was found by a merchant caravan and nursed back to health. To repay their kindness, she decided to stay with the merchants, acting as their bodyguard with her magic.

Path of Radiance[]

At some point after in Chapter 8, Ilyana is separated from her group due to a Daein invasion. She is then forcefully enlisted into the Daein army to fight the Greil Mercenaries. Upon learning that the mercenaries are guarding her caravan friends, Ilyana unhesitatingly defects from the Daein army to help them. Ilyana then remains with the Greil Mercenaries until the Mad King Ashnard is defeated.

Radiant Dawn[]

A few years later in Radiant Dawn, Ilyana and the rest of the merchant convoy are captured and held in Gribe Prison by Begnion's occupying forces in Daein. In Chapter 1-3, she joins the Dawn Brigade after Sothe rescues her, Aimee, and Micaiah from a Daein prison. Ilyana will then assist Micaiah on her quest to liberate Daein from Begnion's rule. After the Dawn Brigade's final victory at Nevassa, Ilyana leaves Daein with the rest of the caravan.

Later in Chapter 3-2, Ilyana joins Ike's group when her merchant convoy arrives in Begnion. As the war continues, she fights in the Apostle's Army alongside the rest of the Greil Mercenaries. After the war, Ilyana continues to travel around the continent of Tellius with the merchant convoy.

Personality[]

Ilyana is best known for her voracious metabolism, causing her to remain ravenous no matter how much she eats, to the extreme that she can and will collapse even after having consumed large meals. Ilyana's support conversations with Mia in Path of Radiance show this taken to a hilarious extreme, where she gets so hungry to the point that after collapsing onto the floor, she begins to nibble Mia's boots.

Ilyana's huge appetite has also greatly influenced her memory. Although she is terrible at remembering people's names and faces, she can perfectly remember the names of people who have treated her to delicious meals or are good at cooking, including Heather, Zihark, and Gatrie. And when first encountered in Radiant Dawn, Ilyana is observed to express her anger over being served inferior-quality food in meager quantities while in prison.

Ilyana shares a unique bond with Zihark, although its extent is neither explicitly confirmed nor explored by the games. This can first be observed when Ilyana meets Zihark in Chapter 1-5 of Radiant Dawn, where she comments that it has been "too long" since she last met him, remarking that she often thinks of him. Chapter 3-7 further fleshes out this bond, where Zihark will refuse to attack her, claiming that he has known her for a longer time than the other members of their armies. If the pair share a transferred A support from Path of Radiance, Ilyana will be able to convince him to defect from the Daein Army and join the Greil Mercenaries.

Subjective: The following part of this article is based upon the editor's personal experiences and opinions, and therefore may not be applicable for all readers.

Ilyana has a higher Strength growth than Soren and Tormod, which means she loses less attack speed from wielding tomes, a trait that may be able to compensate for her relatively low Speed growth. Despite her higher Strength growth, giving Ilyana staves instead of knives upon promotion is helpful, as knives require very high Strength to be powerful in this game, and Ilyana usually will hit harder with magic anyways. Pairing her up with someone will fully utilize her useful Shade skill, especially support options like Mia and Gatrie. Her average magic rating among the playable Sages is compensated with her excelling in thunder magic, the strongest tome type in the game; though thunder magic is the least accurate among the usable magic types, she has a decent skill growth rate to balance it out.

In Radiant Dawn, Ilyana returns as the only playable Thunder Mage. As the only playable character who can achieve SS rank in Thunder, she is the only one capable of using Rexbolt. With her improved growths in Magic and Skill, the offensive problems associated with Thunder magic in Radiant Dawn may be compensated for to an extent. Ilyana can be a useful backline attacker (and later healer), but her Shade skill greatly improves her survival ability around other units, so she can be used in less defensive formations as well.

Ilyana is recruited in Part I, but then leaves the Daein Liberation Army to join the Greil Mercenaries for the most part of Part III. As this gives her the best availability of any unit in the game, over-using her in Part I is not recommended, as the Daein Liberation Army needs all the experience possible to reduce the difficulty level of Chapters 3-6, 3-12, and 3-13. If Ilyana is trained to a reasonable level and is chosen to be an Endgame character, she will potentially be able to reduce the difficulty level of Chapter 4-E, as she is capable of exploiting the blessed Rexbolt tome's ability to immense damage to the Dragon Laguz or strike from afar with a blessed Bolting. This will allow her to assist in the fight against Dheginsea, assuming her speed does not fall behind.

If given the proper training in Path of Radiance, Ilyana will receive data transfer bonuses.

Etymology[]

Ilyana is a corruption of Iliyana, a name that has been changed and altered throughout cultures; Iliana (Spanish) and Ileana (Spanish and Romanian). In Romanian folklore, she was kidnapped by monsters and rescued by a heroic knight, which is rather similar to Ilyana's situation in Path of Radiance.

Trivia[]

  • Ilyana shares her Heroes English voice actress, Ryan Bartley, with Peony.
  • Ilyana is one of only two playable units who start both Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn in a completely unpromoted base class, the other being Jill. All other returning characters in Radiant Dawn are in advanced classes (including Mist because, although she is still a Cleric, that class is an advanced class in Radiant Dawn).
  • Ilyana has the highest availability of any unit in Radiant Dawn, being available for 23 chapters in the game; two more than the main character, Micaiah.
  • In Radiant Dawn, Ilyana is the only unit capable of wielding Rexbolt. This makes her the only unit in the entire game who effectively has a non-personal SS-rank weapon entirely exclusive to them, since all other SS-rank weapons have at least two potential playable users.
    • Relatedly, Ilyana is the only playable character in the series capable of reaching SS-rank with thunder magic.
  • Ilyana's Sage model in Path of Radiance is a palette swap of Calill's. This explains why Ilyana's hair is suddenly up in a ponytail, along with having a more mature appearance.
  • In Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE, there is a waitress who looks somewhat like Ilyana. They also share the same Japanese voice actress, Saori Gotō.
  • According to Tellius Recollection, Ilyana was designed with an apparent age of 16 in Path of Radiance and 19 in Radiant Dawn.
