Ranulf

How I feel about this character

Cute and snarky, like Soren he’s definitely not your typical adviser character. He’s also one of the only non-royal non-flying laguz worth using in both games, so there’s that.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Ike of course (and I wish this pairing were more popular in fandom), and maybe Skrimir too for something different and probably rougher. 

My non-romantic OTP for this character

He and Lethe have a good rapport that isn’t romantically based surprisingly enough. He’d probably also have a lot to talk about with Giffca, if Giffca were ever inclined to be chatty.

My unpopular opinion about this character

He’s pretty clearly a no fems kind of guy, much as that breaks Kyza’s queeny little heart. He is vers though, and probably poly-friendly.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon

Like many people I’d like to have seen the extended Hard Mode script localized, because it gives him more screentime and more development to his relationship with Ike. Since he’s an option for a paired ending that’s kind of important.
