Lindon is actually hilarious | Fire Emblem

Mauvier: *breathes* Lindon: MAUVIER, DO YOU WANT TO HELP ME WITH AN EXPERIMENT?!

[@boserboser6870]

Lindon: Be very still, if do this right the pain ought not be TOO agonizing.

Lindon: I miss my wife Mauvier. I miss her alot. I'll be back

[@whitewolf3051]

Wonder how his wife left him or died. Probably too much crazy experiment on his part.

[@Zekken_The_Lodestar]

[@LordOfGilneas]

I love the idea that Sir lindon is responsible for popcorn being in the fire emblemverse.

[@blue_lux]

This only proves Alear and Mauvier are the only sane people in the whole kingdom

[@RaidenKaiser]

Is lythos even a kingdom?? It's supposed to be but the only subjects we seen are 2 weirdos and an old dood thinks he's a jagen but is only carried by large hp lol.

[@ArceusDX]

@@RaidenKaiser I mean, if you can have a town irl that's just populated by a single person, then you can get away with a Kingdom containing only like 4 people

@Chase Ong yunaka is sane....until you bring out her inner demons lol merrin can account to that

[@elcambiollego]

what really breaks me with the Elthunder popcorn is that he seeks assistance out of the possible chance of casting Elthunder on himself.

[@ponspector]

we should’ve gotten paired endings in this game purely so lindon and mauvier could have one and we could find out whether the experiment was successful or not

[@whitewolf3051]

Most likely the old man did it while they either out in the rain, or standing in puddle of water. Leading to not trusting the old coot.

[@Winter_Symphony]

"I will not sacrifice my life for corn" is right up there with "my heart fluttered when I was struck by a poisoned arrow" for me for Mauvier's best quotes

[@greengreninja5725]

Of course he asks the guy with a few lightning rods worth of armor on.

[@whitewolf3051]

Could’ve been worse, they might’ve been standing in a puddle of water, or raining even. And we all know how water and electricity mixes, they don’t.

[@ghostreporting3769]

Lindon truly embodies the wacky old grandpa and I also like how he is using elthunder instead of thunder.

[@Good100]

Thunder is not dangerous enough, and Thoron would be too accurate.

[@whitewolf3051]

Imagine if he got spells from the Elder Scrolls series, particularly Skyrim, and got hold of either lightning storm or unbound storm.

[@cadence_2463]

@@whitewolf3051 Imagine if he got his hands on the spell combinations in Bravely Second. Man would cast this world’s first 9999 spell.

Funny and all, but to be fair to Lindon, if he was gonna pick anyone in the army, picking Mauvier with his high resistance was a great choice.

[@Lunimoose]

Lindon just wanted to make popcorn: Elthunder style

[@TheSuperCasual2914]

Sir Lindon for FEH. We can even have his late wife be in the special art, as parallel to Orson.

Would love to see it His personal weapon (if he isn't the demote character) should be that his special cooldown accelerates VERY fast if the foe's weapon can't be inherited (to simulate his own personal skill from Engage of using a weak weapon versus a stronger one)

[@GMKGoji01]

I don’t think the Summoner would handle taking part in Lindon’s experiments. My Summoner, in particular, would absolutely not!

[@StormEagleCH]

Imagine if after Lindon and Mauvier’s A-support Mauvier just straight up dies after being roasted by Elthunder and can’t be used for the rest of the game

[@whitewolf3051]

That would likely to happen *if* the old coot did it while it was raining, or them standing in a puddle of water.

Nah, Mauvier has good res

@@Rui_Vuusen I was talking about what happens when you feed him low rated food in the doning hall

[@TLNT2103-zg3sb]

In fairness, he's gotten poisoned multiple times and probably built a resistance by this point. By contrast, building a resistance to getting Thoron'd would be decidedly more difficult.

[@zenronez1158]

Mauvier: Goodbye sir Lindon. That's my favorite line.

[@silverredwing20]

Did someone took notes from Ratatouille? Remy did attempted to make something with chimney smoke only for him to be struck by lightning, which went surprisingly well.

He's basically merlin he's cookie and crazy but wise and mystical lol

All Lindon had to do to get Mauvier on his side is say Veyle wants it and he would’ve done the experiment

Just a PSA soren does help lindon with his cooking on more than one occasion

[@spiderlover678]

Soren just wanted to dunk on these fools with his obviously superior skills in magic lol

[@kainingyao7873]

Lindon: Magic is everything! Make him a mage knight, and equip with with Olwen's S-rank Bond Ring as well as Thunder, and you'll end up with your very own Reinhardt. Which especially suits his obsession with lightning magic as well as the synergy this build has for his personal skill.

[@Nastara]

a shame i let jade and lindon die next playthrough i’ll use you two i swear

[@nanbuben.arastar]

Good experimental participant selection. Mauvier has great RES.

[@ElkaPME]

[@Arkensius1157]

I accidentally killed Lindon in my first playthrough of Engage...I feel so bad for killing him! I will have to restart the game to recruit him... I recruited Lindon!

Reading about Lindon electrifying things is even more hilarious if you're using his 100% crit build.

[@paulman34340]

Especially if you give him Olwen S ring (People be saying give that one to Citrinne HAH Poppycock 🤣 I gave that to Lindon and focused him on Crits....and had an Enchanter "enchantment" Thunder. And had fun! Now I'm seeing how to work with Saphir!)

Rule number one of Fire Emblem: keep an eye out for named characters

@@StormEagleCH Oh... So I killed all the secondary villains, while I could've recruited them. Damn, I had no clue...

[@ltranc]

@@lloydaran Keep an eye out for named characters that say "I sure have doubts about my affiliation. Am I really doing the right thing?" on Turn 1.

[@lloydaran]

@@ltranc Alright, so it's not all of them. I remember Lyndon doubting what Elusia had become and wanting to meet his wife in the afterlife, while the female enemy l met on his same ship (she had a name too, I don't remember) didn't say anything at the start, only claiming she would get rid of me once I got close to her. I guess the woman wasn't recruitable, then?

[@StormEagleCH]

Yeah she was the main boss of the chapter. If you recall the objective of that chapter, it was to defeat her, which is a telltale sign that she's the enemy boss. Plus, Lindon has a unique convo with her if he fights her

Didn't even realize you had options. I thought it was like the early game bandit bosses and such where it's just a boss-only NPC, game didn't suggest otherwise and so far every opponent unit who does join wouldn't die when beat and joins party post-chapter.

[@benwest2112]

Sir Lindon has just revealed to me, the reason why the Somniel is called thus and I must say it is a quite uninspired choice. Is the Somniel really named after the Latin word for dream “somnium”. But what did I expect? The evil dragon is called Sombron and the good dragon queen “Lumera”. This comes pretty close to “Melbad” and “Goodgaia”, if you get the reference. Three Houses was far more ingenious with other etymologies. The “Agathans” for example. “Agathos” means “virtue” in Ancient Greek and virtue was often discussed by Ancient Greek philosophers. It is the perfect name for an l ancient advanced culture that has been displaced by religious zealots, who’s reactionary and inflexible dogma hinders progress. I just which they would have been portrayed as more nuanced villains, as their desire to take their home back from foreign invaders and influence makes for a very compelling motivation. But back to Engage: who wrote the script for this game? It is the most uninspired main title so far. Fates at least tried to tell a compelling story.
