He has solid base strength, skill, speed, and defense when transformed, able to reliably one-round most enemy units with good durability. He has excellent mobility, with less restricted movement through many forms of terrain, most notably, ledges which are prevalent throughout Part III. As a laguz unit, he only has 1-range combat, so his enemy phase is limited. As a cat laguz, his strike weapons are among the weakest in the game, and his laguz gauge depletes incredibly quickly. This means to stay transformed, he must spend most turns using olivi grasses, severely limiting his player phase actions. ''Path of Radiance'' Ranulf does not cap any stats on average, though it is barely possible for him to cap strength which significantly benefits ''Radiant Dawn'' Ranulf as it is effectively a +4 strength boost. This is unrealistic though. | ||
Ranulf has a respectable skill and luck growth for a laguz unit; he can cap skill relatively quickly, allowing him to fix his other stats. Though his strength and speed growths are average at best, he is fast enough to double most enemy units at base, and boosting his strike rank is more significant than leveling strength. His defensive growths are extremely low even for a laguz, so through lategame he will struggle with durability, further limiting his enemy phase. Ranulf is forced onto Tibarn's team, which works well for him as there are many forest tiles he can run through. For endgame, Laguz Gems are available which fixes Ranulf's cat gauge issues. While he is fast enough to double most units, his weaker strength and resistance cap limit him. | Ranulf has a respectable skill and luck growth for a laguz unit; he can cap skill relatively quickly, allowing him to fix his other stats.

His class as a cat makes it difficult for him to find proper support partners as other cat laguz are not practical units. Ike is a good partner for Ranulf as both units are forced in numerous chapters, get a significant avoid boost, and already have an innate bond support, but Ike has more valuable partners. Mounted beorc units like Oscar and Titania work well due to similar movement, though they generally have better options. | ||

Ranulf (pronounced /ˈɹɑːnʌlf/[key][3]; Japanese: ライ Lay) is a main character in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, being one of the king of Gallia's right hand men. He guides Ike and his mercenaries through the earlier part of their journey. He does not become playable until Chapter 23. In Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, he is second-in-command of the Gallian army, being in charge of the safety of the leader, Skrimir, the king's nephew.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Ranulf is the latter of two playable cat laguz. He has good base stats all around, only having low resistance and being weak to fire magic. When transformed, he has enough strength, skill, and speed to one-round most units, excellent mobility, and solid physical bulk. As a laguz unit, he is permanently restricted to 1-range combat, so his enemy phase is limited. He also cannot use forges. His laguz gauge takes two turns to fill, where he can contribute via shoving or rescuing, then transform early enough when the main bulk of combat begins. He can circumvent his gauge with a Demi Band, though that is only recommended after he detransforms due to lowering his offensive stats.
Ranulf has excellent offensive growths, growing well in strength, skill, and speed, ensuring he remains offensively powerful through the rest of the game. His defensive growths are mediocre, so he will remain weak to magic. He is generally outclassed by other paladins in the long run, but he has a niche of being able to shove and having full ground mobility through forests and mountains.
Ranulf has no skills at base. He can make use of Smite due to his good untransformed movement, though the laguz tigers have higher weights and make better use of it. Wrath and Adept complement Ranulf's bulk and offense, though due to lack of 2-range, they're skills better used on beorc units. An Occult is not recommended as Roar is not a practical skill.
Ranulf has a wind affinity, giving a light accuracy and avoid boost. Ike is his strongest support option, giving a massive avoid boost with his earth affinity; however, Ike has several other partners that benefit more than Ranulf does. Mordecai gives a +1 boost to attack and defense, though it does not complement Ranulf's affinity. Lethe is his weakest support option despite being the same class, as she only gives accuracy which neither unit needs.

- Note: The above stats are Ranulf's default stats. If a Radiant Dawn game was started via a data transfer from Path of Radiance and Ranulf managed to reach level 20 in his highest possible class in the Path of Radiance save file, any stat Ranulf capped in Path of Radiance will result in a boost to his base in the stat in question in Radiant Dawn. The boost is a +5 for max HP, and +2 for strength, magic, skill, speed, luck, defense or resistance. See Data transfer § Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn for more information.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Ranulf is a cat laguz that is playable in Ike's group starting 3-4 and is forced into the party for some Part III chapters. He has solid base strength, skill, speed, and defense when transformed, able to reliably one-round most enemy units with good durability. He has excellent mobility, with less restricted movement through many forms of terrain, most notably, ledges which are prevalent throughout Part III. As a laguz unit, he only has 1-range combat, so his enemy phase is limited. As a cat laguz, his strike weapons are among the weakest in the game, and his laguz gauge depletes incredibly quickly. This means to stay transformed, he must spend most turns using olivi grasses, severely limiting his player phase actions. Path of Radiance Ranulf does not cap any stats on average, though it is barely possible for him to cap strength which significantly benefits Radiant Dawn Ranulf as it is effectively a +4 strength boost. This is unrealistic though.
Ranulf has a respectable skill and luck growth for a laguz unit; he can cap skill relatively quickly, allowing him to fix his other stats. Though his strength and speed growths are average at best, he is fast enough to double most enemy units at base, and boosting his strike rank is more significant than leveling strength. His defensive growths are extremely low even for a laguz, so through lategame he will struggle with durability, further limiting his enemy phase. Ranulf is forced onto Tibarn's team, which works well for him as there are many forest tiles he can run through. For endgame, Laguz Gems are available which fixes Ranulf's cat gauge issues. While he is fast enough to double most units, his weaker strength and resistance cap limit him.
Ranulf is 4 levels from being able to use a Satori Sign to learn Rend, which boosts his offense. With his excellent speed, he makes good use of Quickclaw, Adept, or Resolve. Pass takes advantage of his solid ground and ledge mobility, which is invaluable especially on chapter 3-4 and Part IV.
Ranulf has a wind affinity which gives a light accuracy and avoid boost. His class as a cat makes it difficult for him to find proper support partners as other cat laguz are not practical units. Ike is a good partner for Ranulf as both units are forced in numerous chapters, get a significant avoid boost, and already have an innate bond support, but Ike has more valuable partners. Mounted beorc units like Oscar and Titania work well due to similar movement, though they generally have better options.

Personality
This section has been marked as a stub. Please help improve the page by adding information.
Ranulf is a playful and cheerful character along with being very bright and intelligent. He is also a rather easy-going laguz and will forgive. For example, he forgave Ike in Path of Radiance for calling laguz "sub-humans", as Ranulf realized Ike did not know much about the laguz.

Quotes
Battle quotes
“ | I'm feeling ashamed to retreat earlier than Ike, but... | ” | — An unused quote intended to be Ranulf's escape quote in Path of Radiance. |
---|
“ | Callum: So sub-human. Are you worried about your general? Ranulf: You bet I'm worried! Without us looking after him, who knows what kind of trouble that hothead might get himself into! You can see we're in a big hurry. Get out of my way, or I'll move you. Painfully. Callum: Never! If you wish to reach the top, you must "move" me. Do your best sub-human. |
” | — Ranulf, when fighting Callum in Part III, Chapter 4 of Radiant Dawn. |
---|
“ | Ranulf: Oh, I thought I smelled you earlier. We just have to stop meeting like this. Black Knight: ... Ranulf: Back in Gallia, in Crimea... We just ran into each other recently, too. I don't know about the others, but I can tell who you are. You have one heck of a stench. Black Knight: ...Enough talk. Prepare yourself. Ranulf: Still won't own up, huh? Fine. If that's the case, I'll just tear your mask off and show everyone myself! |
” | — Ranulf, when fighting the Black Knight in Part III, Chapter 7 of Radiant Dawn. |
---|
“ | Nailah: Hm. I'd always assumed that you cats were weak, but I was wrong. I've been watching you fight this battle. You're really very good. Ranulf: Queen Nailah, while I'm honored to receive praise from you, I'd really rather not fight you. I think I'd much rather run away with my tail tucked firmly between my legs, to be honest. Nailah: Don't be so modest, Ranulf. You'll be a good challenge, I'm sure, and those are rare for me. Ready? Ranulf: Thrown around by Skrimir, cornered by General Zelgius, and now this. Can someone tell me why I always seem to pull the short straw? |
” | — Ranulf, when fighting Nailah in Part III, Endgame of Radiant Dawn. |
---|
“ | Valtome: The so-called queen... Where is that brazen little hussy? Bring her before me! Now! Right away! Immediately! Ranulf: Are you the best Ashera could do? This really is the end of the world. |
” | — Ranulf, when fighting Valtome in Part IV, Chapter 2 of Radiant Dawn. |
---|
“ | Ranulf: I saw the results of your experiments at Gritnea Tower. The mutilated bodies... the rotting flesh... It was the most horrifying experience of my life. I wonder if my nightmares will pass when I kill you? Izuka: How could you not see the importance of my beloved research? That was my life's work! Ranulf: Then it is appropriate that you will pay for those terrible crimes with your life. My long-suffering kinsmen, watch as I destroy your tormentor! |
” | — Ranulf, when fighting Izuka in Part IV, Chapter 5 of Radiant Dawn. |
