“Whoa, be careful with that! Even if it's just a practice sword, you still shouldn't be playing with it! C'mon, miss, just go on home. I can even have a couple of my men escort you back home if you want. Where do you live?”
—Norton, to Sasha before realizing her true identity

Norton (ノートン Nōton) is a playable character from TearRing Saga: Utna Heroes Saga. He is a knight of Wellt who leads the castle guards. He is also a close friend of Lionel.

Profile[]

Due to his disinterest in political conflicts, Norton refuses to aid Lionel in his plans to rebel against Codha. In his recruitment scene, he initially mistakes Sasha for a child and reacts with surprise upon learning that she is the princess of Wellt. He joins Runan's army on Sasha's orders because of his loyalty to her. Like many other members of the army, Norton suspects that Zeek is a traitor and fails in his attempt to convince Kate to think the same.

In the ending, Norton returns to Wellt and receives an invitation to visit Lionel's wife.

Norton scavenges the battlefield as perhaps one of the weakest units in the game, a title only contested by Luca and Krishna. Norton comes on Turn 3, on Chapter 6 as a reinforcement, which makes him a rather easy character to miss especially on faster playthroughs. Upon recruiting him, one immediate issue that becomes apparent is his 3 Movement. Even with Urbanite, he is ultimately going to fall behind in almost every map, which is a huge detriment for a would-be tank, and the fact that he is even overshadowed by that role by Toms doesn't help matters much either.

While he would theoretically have his issues fixed with his Knight Crest promotion, the truth is that his promotion actually does more harm than it does good. Not only is 6 Movement still not enough to keep up with the rest of your units, but his weaknesses are also exacerbated due to Iron Knights being vulnerable to both Armor Effective weapons such as the Armorslayers and Hammers, and Cavalier Effective weapons such as the Halberd. Both of these issues make him near unusable on Runan's Route, where many of the enemy mooks come with those aforementioned weapons. On Holmes' Route, his best performance comes on the seldomly appearing City Maps where he can actually see combat thanks to Urbanite boosting his movement to 7, but truthfully, this bonus is ultimately better utilized by Roger or Estelle. It also doesn't help that Holmes also comes with many indoors chapters, which forces him back to his miserable 3 Movement again. Holmes route also features many monster-type enemies that he struggles to double due to them having surprisingly high Attack Speed.
