==History==
 
Nolan became a successful merchant at a young age, but lost his fortune and status when betrayed by his associates. Downtrodden, he lost faith in mankind and began living as a tramp in the back alleys of [[Daein]]. At first, he thought the wars were none of his business.

Downtrodden, he lost faith in mankind and began living as a tramp in the back alleys of [[Daein]]. At first, he thought the wars were none of his business. However, upon learning of the blood of his fellow countrymen being spilled by the [[Begnion Occupational Army]], Nolan is inspired to become a freedom fighter, intent on liberating [[Daein]]. Initially, Nolan interfered with the Begnion forces alone, but after helping Edward and Leonardo escape from Begnion hunters, they joined forces. Rumors of their rebellious activities caught the ears of Sothe and Micaiah, who then contacted and joined them too. He then forms the Dawn Brigade to combat [[Begnion]]'s oppression, with himself as the leader of the group.

In contrast to his appearance and profession as a warrior, his hobby is reading, and can often be seen lost in a book while not in battle, as shown in an info conversation with [[Sothe]] in Part III.

===Base Stats===
Nolan joins Micaiah, Leonardo, and Edward in Part 1 - Chapter 1 as a Level 9 Fighter. Alongside Sothe, Nolan is the strongest of the Dawn Brigade fighters, and provides much needed protection for weaker units with his adequate defensive capabilities. Nolan has little trouble ascending to [[Warrior]] Class through experience gained in battle alone. Once Nolan reaches [[Reaver]] Class, he becomes an offensive powerhouse with high HP, albeit with defenses that are somewhat sub-par.

Nolan is one of the easiest characters in the Dawn Brigade to train, because he joins early on at a somewhat high [[level]] and decent stats, thus proving to be a useful tank early on. His [[Skill (stat)|Skill]] and [[Speed (stat)|Speed]] growths are quite impressive, compensating for his average [[strength]] growth. He can promote rather quickly, and can prove to be a formidable unit that can be used to put holes into the opponent's team. The additional capacity also opens space for an additional skill, such as [[Resolve (Skill)|Resolve]] or [[Wrath]]. Giving him [[Beastfoe]] is recommended during Part 3, as it will allow him to cleave through the opponent, as well as [[Level Up]] very quickly and possibly promote into a [[Reaver]]. It should be noted that Nolan will likely cap his [[Magic (stat)|Magic]] as a Reaver, so putting both [[Imbue]] and [[Renewal (Skill)|Renewal]] on him is a good idea.
   
  +
Nolan is a bit different from the other potential Reaver, [[Boyd]]. While Boyd will easily cap his [[HP]], strength, and [[Defense (stat)|Defense]], Nolan will cap his magic, skill, speed, [[luck]], and [[resistance]]. Also, Nolan already comes with [[Nihil]], meaning he does not have to waste [[Capacity]] for cancelling out [[Aurora]], should he be brought into the final chapter.
Nolan is a fighter that has high speed and skill growths; he is a great member of the Dawn Brigade, and will be your major powerhouse throughout your time of using the group. His Strength can be quite low, but his high HP and Speed will often make up for it by the time that he promotes. Let him get experience by weakening units for lower leveled units of the Dawn Brigade to kill, and you'll be all set. Also, his Magic growth is high for a Reaver so putting both Imbue and Renewal on him is wise.

“You’re right, each of us can only achieve so much on our own. But you boys are still young. Don’t let go of your hopes and dreams.”
—Nolan to Edward and Leonardo

Nolan is a playable character in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. He is the official leader of the Dawn Brigade, although Micaiah usually acts as such throughout the story. He is the oldest member of the Dawn Brigade, and acts like a father figure to best friends Edward and Leonardo, two other members. Edward and Leonardo think he is very old. He is the only Fighter in Micaiah's party and receives his own unique axe, the Tarvos, at a Base Conversation before Chapter 3-6.

Profile

Nolan became a successful merchant at a young age, but lost his fortune and status when betrayed by his associates. Downtrodden, he lost faith in mankind and began living as a tramp in the back alleys of Daein. At first, he thought the wars were none of his business. However, upon learning of the blood of his fellow countrymen being spilled by the Begnion Occupational Army, Nolan is inspired to become a freedom fighter, intent on liberating Daein. Initially, Nolan interfered with the Begnion forces alone, but after helping Edward and Leonardo escape from Begnion hunters, they joined forces. Rumors of their rebellious activities caught the ears of Sothe and Micaiah, who then contacted and joined them too. He then forms the Dawn Brigade to combat Begnion's oppression, with himself as the leader of the group.

Personality

Nolan is an experienced man and a leader who has seen life’s endurances, but has a gentle demeanor and does not act superior to the others. While the occasional jokes about his age bother him, he nonetheless is a reliable ally that offers sage advice to the younger members of the group. In contrast to his appearance and profession as a warrior, his hobby is reading, and can often be seen lost in a book while not in battle, as shown in an info conversation with Sothe in Part III.
