Linoan

Linoan is a playable character from Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. She is the duchess of Tahra and the fiancée of Prince Arion of Thracia. Linoan is also a descendant of Heim. Tempered by the hardships she is forced to endure in her life, Linoan is portrayed as a strong and resilient character, maintaining an air of dignity about her as she bravely confronts the threats that she faces. These are traits that translate well into her role as duchess of Tahra, as she comes to lead the city in a revolt against the oppressive Empire, even despite knowing the odds are stacked against them. Beneath her façade of toughness is an emotional, sentimental person, particularly with matters relating to the heart. Although betrothed to Arion, she does not return his feelings, as she instead falls in love with her bodyguard Dean. While she never explicitly expresses her love for Dean, the heartfelt way by which she reminisces about him to his sister Eda makes her feelings for him very clear. This love is made especially evident at the end of the Final Chapter, where she breaks out of character in frantically begging him to stay at her side when she learns of his plan to depart for Thracia.
