Profile[edit | edit source]
A warrior of the Kutolah tribe, he followed the chief’s orders and searched all over the continent for Sue, joining a band of bandits on the Western Isles for that reason. Finding her working with the Lycian league, he became an ally.
When the war is over, Sin becomes the new leader of the Kutolah clan.
Personality[edit | edit source]
While at first glance Sin may seem to have an air of being blunt, expressionless, and apathetic to his surroundings, it does not mean he lacks normal human connections. He is always alert to danger and also a keen observer.

His starting stats and overall growths are very similar to Rath's from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. In contrast to Sue, Sin sacrifices some skill, speed and luck and is thus not as evasive. However, his evasion is still above average and his speed and skill may max out anyway. His high HP allows him to take a couple more hits than his female counterpart, and he can take out enemies in one turn thanks to his strength, which maxes out on average. His higher constitution also allows him to wield heavier bows (and some swords, if promoted) without a major speed reduction, if any, but not high enough where it kills his ability to use the rescue command well. His Ice affinity gives hit and evasive bonuses, but due to his reduced set of support options, or his possible supports being highly evasive and accurate units already (for instance, his fellow Sacaeans Fir and Sue), the bonuses in question will be more beneficial to himself. On the other hand, the player can choose to support him with Dorothy or Zeiss to improve their accuracy and durability. Sin is by many considered to be the best bow user in Binding Blade due to having strong growths and bases, especially on Hard Mode where his bonuses help him a lot.
