Biography
Corrin is the customizable avatar character in Fire Emblem Fates. Unlike Robin, however, they are also the main character of the story, having the most prominent role of an avatar character in a Fire Emblem game. The player can select Corrin's gender, physical appearance, voice, stat builds, and secondary class before playing. Corrin is notably half-dragon, being able to transform parts of their body into that of a dragon, or temporarily transform into a dragon with the power of Dragonstones. Corrin and their royal families can use Dragon Vein, a power granted from the ancestral First Dragons, which can be used to alter the user's surrounding terrain in a multitude of ways.

Trivia

- Corrin is the only Fire Emblem character whose onscreen appearance does not involve teleportation onto the stage using warp magic.
- Corrin is one of three Fire Emblem characters to utilize a weapon other than their sword, being their dragon form.
