'''Seliph Baldos Chalphy''' (pronounced {{IPA|ˈsɛlɪf}}<ref>Sigurd in ''Fire Emblem Heroes''</ref>; Japanese: {{hl|セリス・バルドス・シアルフィ|Serisu barudosu shiarufi}} ''Celice Baldos Chalphy''<ref>[https://serenesforest.net/general/timelines/ Dummied-out timeline] from {{title|Thracia 776}}</ref>) is the son of the late [[Sigurd]] and [[Deirdre]], heir to [[Grannvale]]'s former House [[Chalphy]], and the half-brother of Imperial Prince [[Julius]] and Princess [[Julia]] of the Grannvale Empire. He is a descendant of both the Crusader [[Baldr]] through Sigurd, and of Saint [[Heim]] of the ruling [[Belhalla]] dynasty through Deirdre; as the eldest of Deirdre's children, he was as such the true heir to the Grannvale throne. Born in [[Agustria]] in the year 759 during its occupation by the Grannvale forces led by his father, he was sent into hiding in the ouskirts of [[Isaach]] for his own protection, taken by [[Oifey]] and Isaach's Prince [[Shannan]], along with [[Larcei]], [[Scáthach]] and [[Diarmuid]]. There in the aftermath of the [[Battle of Belhalla]], he lived in hiding in the village of [[Tirnanog]] for seventeen years, raised by [[Edain]] – who acted as a surrogate mother – and Oifey, and taught martial arts by Shannan.

==Biography==
===Role===
When troops of the [[Dozel]] occupation force were sighted approaching Tirnanog from the northern Ganeishire castle, Seliph chose to reveal himself to the world by departing to protect the village, despite [[Scáthach]]'s concern about the difficulty of doing so with Oifey and Shannan absent, and so he departed with Scáthach, [[Larcei]] and [[Lana]], soon backed up with the arrival of Oifey, [[Lester]] and [[Diarmuid]]. Upon claiming Ganeishire and defeating its master, General [[Harold]], Seliph encountered [[Lewyn]], who entrusted him with [[Julia]] before leaving for [[Leonster]]. From there, Seliph freed the rest of Isaach and killed King [[Danann]], the appointed ruler of Isaach and the leader of the occupation of the country for the Grannvale Empire. Afterward, Lewyn returned from his work in Leonster, bringing news of the rise of scattered rebellions across Jugdral and encouraging Seliph to leave Isaach and form such a rebellion, citing him as a potential savior and the best hope the world has. While initially reluctant, Seliph accepted the duty.

[[Beyond the Desert|From there]], Seliph headed to the south through the [[Aed Desert]] to [[Leonster]], to meet up with his cousin Prince [[Leif]] and assist him in his own liberation army. On the way, they freed [[Dahna]] and the [[Aed Shrine]]; in the former, Seliph learned of the [[Miracle of Dahna]] from Lewyn, while at the Shrine he found the remnants of the descendants of the [[Loptrian Empire]], the Shrine's former occupants. From Dahna, Seliph's forces entered the [[Munster District]] and, working with Leif's group, defeated King [[Bloom]] of [[Friege]] and conquered Ulster, freeing the north of the Thracian peninsula. His next move was a protracted war with [[Thracia]], an ally of Grannvale, ending in the death of its King [[Travant]] and the escape of its Prince [[Arion]].

His next move was a protracted war with [[Thracia]], an ally of Grannvale, ending in the death of its King [[Travant]] and the escape of its Prince [[Arion]].
At the end of [[Friege]]'s [[The Empire's Wrath|six month long siege of]] Castle [[Leonster]] following [[Leif]]'s recapture of it, Seliph's army launched an assault on Castle [[Ulster]], causing the Friege forces to retreat to reinforce their headquarters. [[Diarmuid]] arrived in Leonster as a messenger to Leif from Seliph, informing Leif that Seliph intended to claim Ulster in only a few days. Leif departed Leonster to back Seliph up, but by the time he got to Ulster, Seliph's forces had already conquered it, and there Leif met Seliph, Lewyn and Julia for the first time. In their brief meeting, it was decided that Seliph's forces would proceed to assault [[Connacht]] while Leif's would take [[Munster]], where the two groups would later meet up.
After the fall of Munster and the deaths of [[Raydrik]] and [[Veld]], Leif received word from [[Finn]] that Connacht had fallen to Seliph's forces, and soon after Seliph himself arrived in Munster to congratulate Leif for his victory. Seliph told Leif that from there, Northern Thracia would unite into a single country under Leif, and invited Leif to continue to assist him in the liberation of Jugdral. The two then pledged to each other their lifelong friendship and brotherhood, like their fathers Sigurd and [[Quan]] before them.<ref>{{Cite|'''Leif:''' Lord Seliph! This is all thanks to you. Thank you very much.<br>'''Seliph:''' No, you liberated Northern Thracia on your own, prince. I did nothing. Northern Thracia will now unite into a single nation under you. It would be our dream come true if such a large and rich nation were to help fight against the Empire. Lord Leif, I wish to ask you to continue to help us in our struggle. We still have many things to do, and many hardships to overcome. But I believe that together, we would be able to triumph over anything. I want to pledge an oath with you to be lifelong friends, like our fathers before us.<br>'''Leif:''' Yes! I always thought of you as an older brother. It would be an honor to be able to support you, Lord Seliph.<br>'''Seliph:''' Good! Then let us swear by this blade. When we were born was different, but when we die will be the same. Together, as comrades, brothers, and friends forever...let us swear to join hands and stand up to save this world from evil!<br>'''Leif:''' Yes, Lord Seliph!|[[Leif]] and Seliph|Thracia 776}}</ref>


With the entire Thracian peninsula subdued, Seliph led his army through [[Miletos]], for the quickest route through to Grannvale; while resting at Peruluke Castle, Julia was abducted by [[Manfroy]] while Seliph was otherwise occupied. After liberating the nation and preventing the recapture of its children for the [[child hunts]] endorsed by the empire, the army crossed its strait and arrived back in Chalphy, under the guard of Emperor [[Arvis]] and his [[Knight brigades of Grannvale|Rot Ritter]]. Seliph rescued the bishop [[Palmarch]], a former servant of his father, and from him received Tyrfing as entrusted to Palmark by Arvis. With Tyrfing, Seliph confronted and killed Arvis and reclaimed his ancestral home.

Before Seliph lay [[End of the Holy War|the final stretch of the war]]: storming through Grannvale itself and seizing [[Belhalla]], the capital. His army's first move was to reclaim [[Edda]], then confront the forces of [[Dozel]] led by [[Brian]] and his Grau Ritter and seize Dozel itself, then defeat [[Hilda (Genealogy of the Holy War)|Hilda]] and her Gelb Ritter and seize [[Friege]]; as they progressed from castle to castle, Lewyn revealed to Seliph the full origin story of the Twelve Crusaders, Julia's identity as his half-sister, Julius's status as the vessel of [[Loptous]], and the necessity of Julia and the [[Book of Naga]] to bring down Julius. Meanwhile, Julia had been hypnotized by Manfroy, and was set on the battlefield to fight Seliph's army. At [[Velthomer]], Seliph confronted and killed Manfroy, freeing Julia from hypnosis, and the two found the Book of Naga hidden away in Velthomer Castle. With the Book of Naga in hand, Seliph and Julia confronted and killed Julius, ending the Grannvale Empire's seventeen-year reign.

Seliph joins in [[Heir of Light|Chapter 6]] of {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} and is the main character of the 2nd generation. He begins with mediocre bases aside from [[luck]], but he has excellent growth rates across the board, including respectable growths in areas such as [[Magic (stat)|magic]] and [[resistance]], which are usually much lower for physical units. Because of his mediocre bases, Seliph may struggle dealing significant damage to enemies at first, and will have trouble traversing ''Geneaology''{{'}}s huge maps with his 6 [[movement]]. To aid him, Seliph can be given powerful weapons such as a [[Silver Sword]], possibly the one his father [[Sigurd]] had so that it could crit or a [[Brave Sword]], especially if they have 50 or more kills on them, while Seliph's movement can be improved by giving him the [[Leg Ring]]. Seliph also has three leadership stars, which provide extra [[hit]] and [[avoid]] to units within three spaces of Seliph, making him a great support unit against hard to hit bosses.

Seliph's inventory varies depending on his father's inventory in [[Doorway to Destiny|Chapter 5]], besides gold which he can inherit 12000 at most. The optimal setup for Seliph is considered to be a Silver Sword or Brave Sword, Leg Ring, [[Power Ring]], [[Speed Ring]] and [[Shield Ring]]. The reason why Seliph is considered the best inheritor of these items is because he is needed to seize castles, meaning that you can only progress as quickly as Seliph can, though note that this is mostly for low-turn count playthroughs and is not necessary for more casual playthroughs. Other than inheriting their inventory, Seliph also inherits two useful skills and two types of [[Holy Blood]] from his parents: from his father, Major Baldr Blood and [[Follow-Up]], and minor Naga Blood and [[Nihil]] from his mother [[Deirdre]]. Both allow Seliph to double attack and block effects of dangerous enemies' sword skills and critical hits, respectively.

The optimal setup for Seliph is considered to be a Brave Sword, Leg Ring, [[Paragon Ring]], [[Power Ring]], [[Speed Ring]] and [[Shield Ring]]. The reason why Seliph is considered the best inheritor of these items is because he is needed to seize castles, meaning that you can only progress as quickly as Seliph can. While this is mostly important for low-turn count playthroughs, ''Genealogy''{{'}}s level design greatly favors making several units as strong as possible to overpower the game's large groups of enemies. Other than inheriting their inventory, Seliph also inherits two useful skills and two types of [[Holy Blood]] from his parents: from his father, Major Baldr Blood and [[Follow-Up]], and minor Naga Blood and [[Nihil]] from his mother [[Deirdre]]. Both allow Seliph to double attack and block effects of dangerous enemies' sword skills and critical hits, respectively.


After reaching level 20, Seliph can promote into a [[Knight Lord]], giving him a mount and a B-rank in [[Lance (weapon)|lances]]. Lances are mostly useless to Seliph due to their higher [[weight (weapon)|weight]], but gaining a mount is very valuable in ''Genealogy'', as it improves his movement and gives him access to [[Canto]]. He also doesn't take bonus damage from Horseslayers thanks to Nihil. Though Seliph's [[speed]] cap is a bit low, it's still high enough for him to double most enemies, and this minor issue is remedied at the end of [[Light and Dark|Chapter 10]] when Seliph gains [[Tyrfing]], which gives him a huge increase in speed and resistance. With the legendary sword's bonuses, Seliph will easily one-round almost anyone he encounters, including bosses, and will have enough resistance to not get affected by enemy status staves.

Though Seliph's [[speed]] cap is a bit low, it's still high enough for him to double most enemies, and this minor issue is remedied at the end of [[Light and Dark|Chapter&nbsp;10]] when Seliph gains [[Tyrfing]], which gives him a huge increase in speed and resistance. With the legendary sword's bonuses, Seliph will easily one-round almost anyone he encounters, including bosses, and will have enough resistance to not get affected by enemy status staves.
 
It should be noted that Seliph is somewhat dependent on the Tyrfing for his late game performance, and that the getting Tyrfing more or less requires having trained fliers; if [[Fee]]/[[Femina]] and [[Altena]] are dead/not recruited or otherwise cannot kill the five [[Dark Mage]]s sent to get rid of the Tyrfing, then the Tyrfing is basically a lost cause. If that happens, then Seliph's Endgame performance becomes a lot worse due to Knight Lord having bad stat caps and Endgame enemies being higher level and coming with good equipment; without rings to patch these stat problems, some, like [[Scipio]], [[Ishtar]] and [[Simia]], can double if not outright one-round him due to Seliph's caps being too low to compete with them. He's still capable of fighting generics somewhat well, but Seliph loses viability as a bosskiller without the Tyrfing.  


Overall, Seliph can start out somewhat weak, but with proper [[inheritance]] and training, he can potentially become one the most powerful characters in the game.

[[File:Portrait seliph fe05.png|right]]
At the end of [[Friege]]'s [[The Empire's Counterattack|six month long siege of]] Castle [[Leonster]] following [[Leif]]'s recapture of it, Seliph's army launched an assault on Castle [[Ulster (location)|Ulster]], causing the Friege forces to retreat to reinforce their headquarters. [[Diarmuid]] arrived in Leonster as a messenger to Leif from Seliph, informing Leif that Seliph intended to claim Ulster in only a few days. Leif departed Leonster to back Seliph up, but by the time he got to Ulster, Seliph's forces had already conquered it, and there Leif met Seliph, Lewyn and Julia for the first time. In their brief meeting, it was decided that Seliph's forces would proceed to assault [[Connacht]] while Leif's would take [[Munster]], where the two groups would later meet up.
Seliph is first mentioned in [[The Scion of Light|Chapter&nbsp;20]]. He appears in the opening cutscene of [[The War of Liberation|Chapter&nbsp;21]], meeting with Leif.
 
{{clear}}
After the fall of Munster and the deaths of [[Raydrik]] and [[Veld]], Leif received word from [[Finn]] that Connacht had fallen to Seliph's forces, and soon after Seliph himself arrived in Munster to congratulate Leif for his victory. Seliph told Leif that from there, Northern Thracia would unite into a single country under Leif, and invited Leif to continue to assist him in the liberation of Jugdral. The two then pledged to each other their lifelong friendship and brotherhood, like their fathers Sigurd and [[Quan]] before them.<ref>{{Cite|'''Leif:''' Lord Seliph! This is all thanks to you. Thank you very much.<br>'''Seliph:''' No, you liberated Northern Thracia on your own, prince. I did nothing. Northern Thracia will now unite into a single nation under you. It would be our dream come true if such a large and rich nation were to help fight against the Empire. Lord Leif, I wish to ask you to continue to help us in our struggle. We still have many things to do, and many hardships to overcome. But I believe that together, we would be able to triumph over anything. I want to pledge an oath with you to be lifelong friends, like our fathers before us.<br>'''Leif:''' Yes! I always thought of you as an older brother. It would be an honor to be able to support you, Lord Seliph.<br>'''Seliph:''' Good! Then let us swear by this blade. When we were born was different, but when we die will be the same. Together, as comrades, brothers, and friends forever...let us swear to join hands and stand up to save this world from evil!<br>'''Leif:''' Yes, Lord Seliph!|[[Leif]] and [[Seliph]]|Thracia 776}}</ref>

A variation of Seliph termed "Scion of Light" was first made available to players on June 30, 2020 as the game's twenty-third Legendary Hero. A brave variation of Seliph, featuring him wearing the clothes of his father, [[Sigurd]], was made available on August 17, 2022 as part of the summoning event surrounding the launch of the [[God of Openness]] update.

** Provided that none of them have lovers, [[Lana]]/[[Muirne]] and [[Larcei]]/[[Creidne]] can be placed adjacent to both Seliph and Julia in a square formation; jealousy will cause Julia to "steal" 5 love points each from Lana/Muirne and Larcei/Creidne, for a total of 10 love points. Julia's negative growth of -5 will be negated for a net result of +5 love points, and if enough turns pass while in this formation, Seliph and Julia will become lovers.
