Selkie is the daughter of [[Kaden]]. Like the other children of ''Fates'', Selkie was raised in her own [[Deeprealms|Deeprealm]] world.
+
Like the other children of ''Fates'', Selkie was raised in her own [[Deeprealms|Deeprealm]] world.
   
 
In her [[Paralogue]], she is busy chasing birds when she walks through the gate out of her Deeprealm and ends up in the normal world. She is then encountered by [[Daichi]] and is surrounded by his group of bandits, hoping to capture her since she is a kitsune. Unfortunately, she does not fully understand the situation and thinks they are playing with her. Kaden, who was on his way to see her, catches wind that Selkie is in trouble and races off to rescue her from the bandits. After "playing" with the bandits, Selkie reunites with Kaden who tells her about her situation. Selkie apologizes, but Kaden convinces her to play a new game, "Hunt the Humans". After taking down the poachers, Selkie still does not get that the poachers were trying to capture her and kill her, but Kaden is nevertheless relieved to see her safe. Enjoying the "game" she played, she asks Kaden if she can join the army so she can continue to play. Kaden tells her that war is not as fun as she thinks and Selkie apologizes for getting carried away. However, since the army saved her, she wants to return the favor by fighting with the army, a sentiment that Kaden is proud of.

  +
Cheerful and innocent, Selkie grew up never facing the harsh reality of being a Kitsune or being hunted. She is active and hates standing still, never turning down any situation that could lead to fun play, even against the resistance of others. Despite inherent risks of her games and ideas, she is the most fearless member of the army, which also makes her a formidable opponent in battle due to the fact that Kaden told her to treat battles like a game, so she gives it her all.
Selkie has an innocent and cheerful personality, one that has never seen danger. She is very active and almost never stands still due to the fact that she loves to play with others, especially her father. Fun-loving, carefree, and playful to a fault, Selkie often focuses on playing and having fun, rather than danger, sometimes with her game being the cause of the danger. She ignores advice (for games to play) if she sees them as boring and either suggests a new one or continues with the one she's currently doing, as seen in supports with her mother and Shigure. She can be a little dense in life-threatening situations as she consistently considers fighting as a game. However, like her father, she always feels the need to repay a favor done for her.
 
   
  +
She chooses to focus on the enjoyment of her activities rather than the potential of getting hurt, which even then she brushes off if she is aware. She can be stubborn as well as any boring suggestion to her is immediately met with a pout and quickly request a more fun option from that person.
She is the most fearless in the army. Her birthday is October 20.
 
   
  +
Selkie can be best described as a girl who "leaps before she thinks", such as in the case of [[Forrest (Fates)|Forrest]] where she recklessly destroys a prized scrap of fabric with scissors before he could explain to her what he wanted to do with it. Despite [[Shigure]]'s warning to not glide with a sailcloth on a particular day, Selkie does so anyways and inadvertently puts herself in danger due to a rogue gust. She is quick to learn lessons and to heed warnings of others, though usually after the fact.

Like her father, Selkie feels the need to repay someone when she feels that she owes them a favor. This is shown in Forrest's support where she turns the mangled fabric into a soft pillow as an apology and as thanks for teaching her how to sew. She grew up in a Deeprealm without any Kitsune so she is excited to visit her father's home at the [[Kitsune Hamlet]] once the war concludes, hoping to play with her fellow Kitsune.

“You don't like playing?! Playing is great!”
—Selkie in her support with Velouria

Selkie is a playable character in Fire Emblem Fates. She is the daughter of Kaden.

Profile

Like the other children of Fates, Selkie was raised in her own Deeprealm world.

In her Paralogue, she is busy chasing birds when she walks through the gate out of her Deeprealm and ends up in the normal world. She is then encountered by Daichi and is surrounded by his group of bandits, hoping to capture her since she is a kitsune. Unfortunately, she does not fully understand the situation and thinks they are playing with her. Kaden, who was on his way to see her, catches wind that Selkie is in trouble and races off to rescue her from the bandits. After "playing" with the bandits, Selkie reunites with Kaden who tells her about her situation. Selkie apologizes, but Kaden convinces her to play a new game, "Hunt the Humans". After taking down the poachers, Selkie still does not get that the poachers were trying to capture her and kill her, but Kaden is nevertheless relieved to see her safe. Enjoying the "game" she played, she asks Kaden if she can join the army so she can continue to play. Kaden tells her that war is not as fun as she thinks and Selkie apologizes for getting carried away. However, since the army saved her, she wants to return the favor by fighting with the army, a sentiment that Kaden is proud of.

Personality

Cheerful and innocent, Selkie grew up never facing the harsh reality of being a Kitsune or being hunted. She is active and hates standing still, never turning down any situation that could lead to fun play, even against the resistance of others. Despite inherent risks of her games and ideas, she is the most fearless member of the army, which also makes her a formidable opponent in battle due to the fact that Kaden told her to treat battles like a game, so she gives it her all.

She chooses to focus on the enjoyment of her activities rather than the potential of getting hurt, which even then she brushes off if she is aware. She can be stubborn as well as any boring suggestion to her is immediately met with a pout and quickly request a more fun option from that person.

Selkie can be best described as a girl who "leaps before she thinks", such as in the case of Forrest where she recklessly destroys a prized scrap of fabric with scissors before he could explain to her what he wanted to do with it. Despite Shigure's warning to not glide with a sailcloth on a particular day, Selkie does so anyways and inadvertently puts herself in danger due to a rogue gust. She is quick to learn lessons and to heed warnings of others, though usually after the fact.

Like her father, Selkie feels the need to repay someone when she feels that she owes them a favor. This is shown in Forrest's support where she turns the mangled fabric into a soft pillow as an apology and as thanks for teaching her how to sew. She grew up in a Deeprealm without any Kitsune so she is excited to visit her father's home at the Kitsune Hamlet once the war concludes, hoping to play with her fellow Kitsune.

Etymology

Selkie are mythological water spirits that resemble seals that can remove their seal pelt to take on human form and walk on land, similar to the shapeshifting nature of her base class. The name was probably chosen due to its resemblance to the word "silky".

Kinu (絹) means "silk" in Japanese. Phonetically, it is also the name of a Japanese warship, although in this case the warship is a light cruiser instead of a destroyer like some other characters.
