Monica von Ochs

Monica is a character from Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. She possesses a minor Crest of Macuil. Monica is playful, extroverted, and casual in her interactions. Several students note that she is much more cheerful, overly so, than prior to her disappearance. Hilda, who knew Monica from the year before, believes that she is acting this way to pretend she is okay after the ordeal. She also appeared to have a good relationship with her father, and insists on calling Edelgard by the nickname 'Edel'. In Warriors: Three Hopes, Monica is depicted as fond of Edelgard and trying to do everything in her power to be of service to her and curry her affection, much to Edelgard's own confusion. Her supports also make it clear that she is jealous of Shez and Hubert for how close they are to her, and disagrees with the latter often, only finding common ground in their subservience to Edelgard. Ironically, some of her tastes are the opposite of Edelgard's, as Monica dislikes sweets but loves to swim, especially in the sea near her home, whereas Edelgard cannot swim. Although she seems largely unfazed by the experience, Monica does sometimes wonder just how much her death might have affected things while also becoming determined to laying waste to her kidnappers to any available opportunity, as shown in her paralogue with Bernadetta, particularly showing pleasure in getting the chance of payback at Kronya. Monica often boasts of her capacity to remember everything she sees, which is reflected in both the war effort and her personal ability. She uses this ability to record minute details of Edelgard's life during the war effort to an obsessive degree. She is also a big fan of Dorothea, whose concerts she used to attend when she was younger.
