The Black Fang (黒い牙) is a group of assassins and mercenaries in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade located in Bern and founded by Brendan Reed. They originally set out to kill corrupt nobles and help the poor, but were later taken over from within by Nergal and his morphs. The original members of the Black Fang, before Nergal's takeover via Sonia's marriage to Brendan, are often referred to as the "Old Fang". Powerful members of the Black Fang were given titles, the greatest of which were the Four Fangs. During the course of the game, some members of the Black Fang are wiped out while others join Eliwood and company. Brendan Reed was the leader of the Black Fang until his death at the hands of Sonia, his second wife, who was actually a morph created by Nergal and used by him to influence and manipulate the group for his own nefarious purposes. The group was then subsequently dissolved when the last of the Fang were defeated in battle with the lords outside the Shrine of Seals.

Four Fangs[]

The four most powerful warriors in the Black Fang are known as the Four Fangs, who are made up of Lloyd, the White Wolf, Linus, the Mad Dog, Ursula, the Blue Crow, and Jaffar, the Angel of Death. Past members of the Four Fangs were Pascal, the Crazed Beast, and Jerme, the Death Kite. Legault, the Hurricane, while never one of the Four Fangs, was said to have power rivaling theirs.

Trivia[]

  • Despite being an entire organization of assassins, Jaffar, Jerme, and Legault are the only three members who actually are or potentially can be of the Assassin class. This is possibly due to the power of Silencer skill in enemy hands.
  • Though Vaida works with the Black Fang, she is not an official member. If she were a member, she would have been killed after retreating in the chapter Unfulfilled Heart.
