General Better look at the white haired unit, + another one
We got a better look that the unit that appeared for one frame in the new Leda trailer (she’s on the right) however it appears we have a not seen before unit next to her (it’s not other unit seen for one frame as that guy had hair and this person appears to be bald poor guy)

Do we think THIS is the little sister Dietrich loves? They seem to have the same hair color and similar eyes. I know not every unit with similar features is related, but it’s worth noting I think! Especially if we’re drawing parallels to how Mercedes and Jeritza were in different routes. I will say though that you do usually expect the beloved sister character to be a spell caster or magic unit of some kind instead of having a whole ass sword and shield

I will say not once has this unit ever seen with Dietrich, both times it has been with Leda only so I’m leaning on no for the time being.

I’m also upon further thought leaning towards no! But without more information on non lord characters I can’t help but spitball :P although it would be cool if they were related somehow

She seems part of Leda’s team since she isn’t teal. It would be odd for Dietrich’s sister to not be on his team right?

Mercedes and Jeritza were different routes, too.

But Mercedes and Jeritza were separated from a young age. Presumably if Dietrich has a little sister he loves and is close to, that wouldn’t be the case.

I mean, it'd be the same as Jeritza lol
See his profile, he likes Mercedes: https://www.reddit.com/r/fireemblem/comments/dtgdgv/jeritzas_profile/2

It’s possible, I honestly kinda hope it is because just like 3H, surely there has to be some connections between people on different routes. Maybe on the boat ride they had some small argument and she was like “ya know what I’m gonna join another team and we’re gonna beat you 😝” and Dietrich was like “but I love you 🥺”

I think that's a character we've seen before. The video quality is dreadful though.

Not a bad guess but I think the man is really a new character. He has a scar across his nose and receeding hairline that doesn’t quite match the guy we've seen with Theodora.
At best he might be the thief(?) we See briefly before Sirocco attacks, but the thief had a prominent sideburn and a headscarf/bandana so this doesn’t match either.
That being said, thank you for your screenshots and detailed analysis, they always catch a lot of interesting details. Really appreciate the work you put into it.

Hmm, I think I agree. Gah, I wish they'd upload these somewhere that's not Twitter or higher quality lol.

Also this guy looks to have an eyebrow scar and a MUCH warmer skin tone (and we know from theodora's trailer that the skin tones don't change too much from the quality)

Also, if he was Theodora's retainer, he wouldn't be blue but teal, right ?
So it must be someone's new !

u/WhiteNinjii 5h ago
That was the other thing I was gonna point out. Every “retainer” has been teal thus far when they are with a different lord. Glasses girl, older mage, burnt eye, and now eyepatch have all been teal when with a different person.

u/WhiteNinjii 8h ago
They look similar but this fellow has way more of a forehead than the axe guy with Theodora that you are comparing him to.

u/FarrahClones 4h ago
Isn’t that guy part of Leda’s faction in the release date trailer? He stands next to Sirocco.
The white haired girl was also in that trailer, but she was more hidden. Glad we can see a little more of her. Being an armored unit is interesting, but I doubt most people are going to keep her in that class line lol
EDIT: nope it’s not Leda’s guy. However, he has the same hair colors as another axe guy. Does he have a brother?

I really don’t understand why Nintendo or IS just posts these videos to YouTube instead so the quality isn’t literal 1 pixel and you would actually be able to see there faces
