Validar is the leader of the [[Grimleal]], the religious sect worshipping [[Grima (character)|Grima]] in [[Plegia]], and is trying to expand Plegia by force. Validar's main goal is to resurrect Grima as his forefathers had tried, albeit unsuccessfully. Like his forefathers, Validar was born in hopes of being a suitable vessel but, also like them, he too was unworthy. Eventually, Validar had a relationship with an unknown woman, presumably to continue Grima's lineage. This ultimately accumulated in the birth of [[Avatar (Awakening)|a child]] who finally had the Heart of Grima symbolized by the Mark of Grima on their right hand. However, fearing for her child's future, the woman took the baby and left Plegia to protect them. Validar spent many years afterwards searching in vain for his child. |

At the Dragon's Table, Validar separates Chrom and the Avatar from the rest of their army to deal with them personally. After supposedly dying in battle, he watches as the Avatar "kills" Chrom and relishes in delight, knowing that his plan has succeeded. He taunts Lucina about how the future is always set and will never change. [[Basilio]] appears and shocks Validar, as he thought that the Khan had died in his battle with Walhart. Basilio explains that because of Lucina's message, he decided to feign death and tells him that he carried his part of the plan while avoiding the spies he had placed to watch the army. Basilio also tells him that the Avatar had known of Validar's plan from a [[Invisible Ties (Premonition)|premonition]] and how the gems on the Fire Emblem were fakes, and continues with how his spies only watched the active members. As Validar attempts to reign control of the situation, he notices Chrom get back on his feet and with his master plan ruined, decides to fight them. After being defeated, he asks the Avatar why they would squander their birthright to become Grima's vessel before dying. |

Revision as of 14:14, 25 June 2018
—Validar
Validar (Valldar in the non-English European versions) is an enemy character and the secondary antagonist in Fire Emblem Awakening.
Validar is the father of the Avatar and grandfather of Morgan and can potentially be the grandfather of any of the given future children.
Story
Awakening
Validar is the leader of the Grimleal, the religious sect worshipping Grima in Plegia, and is trying to expand Plegia by force. Validar's main goal is to resurrect Grima as his forefathers had tried, albeit unsuccessfully. Like his forefathers, Validar was born in hopes of being a suitable vessel but, also like them, he too was unworthy. Eventually, Validar had a relationship with an unknown woman, presumably to continue Grima's lineage. This ultimately accumulated in the birth of a child who finally had the Heart of Grima symbolized by the Mark of Grima on their right hand. However, fearing for her child's future, the woman took the baby and left Plegia to protect them. Validar spent many years afterwards searching in vain for his child.
At some point before the events of Awakening, Validar found an ordinary village girl who possessed a special power. Wanting to use this power for himself, he brainwashed the girl into making her think that he saved her from the slums. The girl's name eventually changed to Aversa. To ensure his spell would not waver over her, Validar destroyed the village and killed anyone who had ties to her.
The night after Gangrel declared war between Plegia and Ylisse, Validar leads an assassination attempt on Emmeryn. During the attempt, Validar spots the Avatar, finding his lost child and is "pleased" with it. His assassination attempt fails however, due to "Marth" warning Chrom and Lissa about how Emmeryn would be killed that night and he dies. Left in a dark void, Validar meets a shadowy individual who introduces themselves as the Fell Dragon. During the rest of the Ylisse-Plegia war, Validar oversees the remainder of the war as he continues to talk with Grima. After Gangrel's defeat, Validar is revived.
Now that Plegia no longer has a king, Validar takes the throne of Plegia. Two years after the war, Chrom comes to ask for aid for the Valm invasion, Validar gives him all the funds and ships he needs. However, he does not give him any soldiers, claiming that his country is still under disarray. He also introduces his hierophant, a mysterious hooded figure who, upon taking off their hood, matches the Avatar in appearance. However, with their business done, and not wanting to stay any longer, Chrom and the Avatar leave. That night, Validar appears to the Avatar in a vision and reveals that he is their father, but does not stay too long as Chrom appears after their conversation. He also sends a group of Risen to kill the group and capture the Avatar, but fail.
After Walhart's defeat, Validar hears of Chrom's search for the final gem for the Fire Emblem and sends word for him to come to Plegia so he can formally present the last gem. However when Chrom and his army arrive, he betrays them and tries to take the Emblem. Just as they are about to escape, Validar warps in, weakens Chrom, and controls the Avatar into making them give the Fire Emblem to him. After acquiring the Fire Emblem, Validar orders Algol to kill them, while warping away to the The Dragon's Table to start Grima's Awakening.
At the Dragon's Table, Validar separates Chrom and the Avatar from the rest of their army to deal with them personally. After supposedly dying in battle, he watches as the Avatar "kills" Chrom and relishes in delight, knowing that his plan has succeeded. He taunts Lucina about how the future is always set and will never change. Basilio appears and shocks Validar, as he thought that the Khan had died in his battle with Walhart. Basilio explains that because of Lucina's message, he decided to feign death and tells him that he carried his part of the plan while avoiding the spies he had placed to watch the army. Basilio also tells him that the Avatar had known of Validar's plan from a premonition and how the gems on the Fire Emblem were fakes, and continues with how his spies only watched the active members. As Validar attempts to reign control of the situation, he notices Chrom get back on his feet and with his master plan ruined, decides to fight them. After being defeated, he asks the Avatar why they would squander their birthright to become Grima's vessel before dying.
Warriors
After the Plegia-Ylisse War, Validar is pulled into Aytolis, where he joins forces with Oskar, the king of Gristonne, as well as Gharnef and Iago. He leads a portion of the Gristonne forces and attempts to stop the Aytolisian royals, but is thwarted and driven back. Although it is unclear what ritual Validar was attempting to perform at the Dragon's Table located in realm of Warriors, as Lucina (as Marth) never explained what type of ritual Validar attempt to. Later, with the defeat of Velezark, he is returned to his own world.
Like Gharnef and Iago, it was never stated why Validar joined Gristonne's cause in reviving Velezark.
Personality
Validar is a man fully devoted to his role as the leader of the Grimleal and one of the descendants of the Fellblood. As the leader of the Grimleal, he is extremely loyal to Grima and is willing to do whatever it takes to ensure his liege's ressurection, even at the cost of his own life. This fanatic loyalty of his has seen Validar committing acts of a grievously heinous nature, some of the more prominent including murder and brainwashing. Aversa is an unfortunate victim of his cunning schemes, having been kidnapped and brainwashed at a young age to serve Grima.
Validar appears to have no goals or desires of his own, aside from serving the ambitions of Grima. This is especially evident through his unfazed response to the knowledge that the Fell Dragon's resurrection will inevitably lead to his death. Validar's fanaticism is so great that he does not appear to understand why his child is unwilling to become Grima's vessel.
Because of his fanatic belief in the impeccably constructed nature of his "destiny", Validar is often overconfident when executing tasks for Grima. This proves to be an inherent flaw of his, as he has, time and again, made critical mistakes when the events that happen deviate from his foresight.

Brawl appearances.
