“I shall swear to Father Sky and Mother Earth.”
—Sin in The Binding Blade.

Sin is a playable character from Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. Sin is a personal friend of the Silver Wolf's granddaughter, Sue, and aspires to be like the Silver Wolf.

Personality

In his support conversations, Sin appears as a very stoic and calm person, a trait almost archetypal in warriors from Sacae. He is always alert to danger and also a keen observer.

Profile

Sin joined a band of bandits on the Western Isles so he could find Sue on direct order from the Silver Wolf.

When the war is over, Sin becomes the new leader of the Kutolah clan.

Overall

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 well-rounded growths and bases, especially on Hard Mode where his bonuses help him a lot.
