—Largo, introducing himself to Ike.
Largo is a playable character from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and a non-playable character in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. He is a friend of Calill and marries her between the events of both games.
Profile[]
Path of Radiance[]
Originally hailing from Begnion, Largo travels around the continent of Tellius in search of opponents who are worthy to compete with a warrior of his caliber. He eventually joins Ike's army, introducing himself as a "world-class berserker" who has accomplished many feats, such as pinning two tigers at one go.
Largo will then remain with Ike's forces until the war reaches its conclusion.
Radiant Dawn[]
Three years after The Mad King's War, Largo becomes the co-owner of a pub with his wife Calill and adopted daughter Amy. Some time after the war, he lost one of his arms in an unspecified accident.
When Ashera casts her judgement upon the continent, Largo is one of the countless people turned to stone. Upon the goddess' defeat, he is restored to life and continues running his bar with Calill while raising Amy.
Personality[]
Largo sports a good-natured and jovial personality, harboring no animosity towards the Laguz race. This may be observed in his organizing of strength competitions with Muarim on a regular basis. Strong and kindhearted as he may be, Largo is not very bright, as can be observed through a support conversation he shares with Devdan, where the latter employs ventriloquism to trick him into believing that a drawn stick-figure on a piece of paper is an actual living thing.

Despite joining late in the game at a relatively low level, Largo starts out with very competent base stats, and also sports excellent Growth rates for a prepromoted unit. Due to his high base stats in HP, Strength and Skill, he will thus be more than capable of capping these stats. Largo's main flaw comes in the form of his low Resistance, which makes him very susceptible to magic-based attacks. If Fixed Mode is chosen, a Pegasus or Priest Band is recommended to boost the odds of gaining the stat by a small amount. His defense is not too great either, but he has a good amount of HP to take a physical attack. In terms of other bands, the Wyvern and Paladin Band also come in handy to boost his meager defense or to increase the chance of capping his speed.
For skills, Vantage and Wrath are recommended over Colossus, as this will take advantage of his high HP, critical rate, and Strength, enabling him to one-shot enemies before they get a chance to hit him. If the player does the trial maps, Largo's waterwalking will come in handy in the Lonely Island mission. All in all, Largo is quite effective for a lategame prepromote.
