Storyline

Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Main Storyline Overview Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Main Storyline Overview

A traveling mercenary named Byleth joins the Officer’s Academy at Garegg Mach Monastery with the position of professor. Prior to arriving at the academy, Byleth awakens an unknown power within him. His quest to discover more about the event causes him to have visions of a mysterious girl named Sothis who guides Byleth and his mercenary troop to the monastery.

Byleth

Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Main Storyline Overview Male Byleth

The player character is a newly-appointed professor at the Officer’s Academy of the Garegg Mach Monastery. During his time at the academy, he must nurture both the minds and hearts of his students within the walls of the lecture room and on perilous battlefields beyond it.

In the game, the player can decide whether to play as a male or female version of Byleth, though much of the promotional material shows the former.

Edelgard von Hresvelg

Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Main Storyline Overview Edelgard

The heiress apparent to the Adrestian Empire, Edelgard is the leader of the Black Eagles house at the academy. She has as a noble and refined demeanor despite outwardly appearing cold to those around her. Edelgard’s favored weapon is an ax.

Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd

Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Main Storyline Overview Dimitri

Dimitri is the prince of the Kingdom of Faerghus who leads the Blue Lions house. Owing to his kingdom’s love of chivalry, Dimitri embodies knightly virtues, though an “inner darkness” seems to dwell inside him. His weapon of choice is a lance.

Claude von Riegan

Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Main Storyline Overview Claude

Claude comes from the noble family that reigns over the Leicester Alliance. The leader of the Golden Deer house seems like the most laid back of the three student heads, though this only hides a perceptive individual with keen insight. Claude’s favored weapon is the bow.

Sothis

Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Main Storyline Overview Sothis

A mysterious girl who appears to Byleth in a vision. Not much has been revealed about Sothis, though her appearance, particularly her ears, suggests that she is not human.
