Revision as of 08:20, 14 April 2013
Laurent (ロラン Roran) is a character from Fire Emblem: Awakening. He is Miriel's son from the future, and can potentially be the brother or father of Morgan. His birthday is April 25th. He is voiced by George C. Cole in the English version.
Profile
Although Laurent was born after Lucina, he was sent three years before Lucina arrived, causing him to be older than her (and potentially his parents). Like the other children characters, Laurent wears his mother's ring, his memento of her. His glasses shine the most out of anyone in the army.
In his Paralogue, Chrom's army arrives at an oasis with a rumored mirage village. Unfortunately, barbarians plan on raiding the villages so Chrom's army works fast to stop them. When Miriel enters one of the nearby villages Laurent comes out and instantly recognizes his mother and talks to her. Unfortunately his mother's curiosity with the mirage village is much too pressing, so Laurent waits until after the bandits are dealt with. Afterward Laurent shows his mother his ring, which Miriel subjectively says that it is not proof that Laurent truly is her son since her son could have been killed and the ring was taken by him. However, Miriel still openly admits that it is possible that Laurent is her son so she asks that he accompanies her so she can find out.
After the war, Laurent, wanting to match his mother's intellect, set off on a long journey. He would later write a legendary tale of his journey in an epic novel.
In Laurent's support with his mother, the two spend much time pondering the mechanics of alcohol flammability and flame colors. In their final support, Laurent finds usage for the colored flames by making fireworks, which his mother offers to assist him. In his support with his father, his father wonders what he and his son have in common since Laurent plainly takes more from his mother. Laurent tries his best to isolate himself from his father, believing that he is no longer a child, but a full grown adult. However Laurent's father reminds him that even though he is an adult, he is still his son and that he should not isolate himself nor put so much stress upon himself. Laurent finally opens up to his father and rids himself of all of his fears and loneliness that came from his time by himself.
Personality
Laurent can be a bit cold and callous, much like his mother, but he inherited his mother's incredible academic prowess. Where Miriel's scientific inqueries are focused in theory and discovering natural laws, Laurent tends to find practical applications for the subjects he studies. He has an intelligent mind and is a dedicated student, but tends to get into messes created by the people around him. Because of his ability to notice minute details, he can solve many arguments in an instant. Due to his much older age compared to the rest of the children, Laurent feels that he has no room to act childish and must act like an adult. His glasses shine the most out of anyone in the army.
