Scipio

|
“ | Alright, we'll cut through these woods and take 'em from behind! Now move!! | ” | — Scipio |
---|
Scipio (Japanese: スコピオ Scopio) was the Duke of Grannvale's House Yngvi, and the successor of his late father Andrey. While the rest of his surviving family allied with Seliph's revolution, he remained loyal to the Grannvale Empire and fought on behalf of Prince Julius against Seliph.
Biography
Scipio assumed rule of House Yngvi at some point following Andrey's demise in the prelude to the Battle of Belhalla. In the final confrontation between Seliph's liberation army and Grannvale, he worked in concert with Duchess Hilda of Friege to trap Seliph en route to Friege Castle, ambushing them with the Beige Ritter as they passed a thick forest, but he failed and was slain.

Role
Scipio is a minor boss in the Endgame, appearing following the seizure of Dozel. He and 17 Beige Ritter subordinates appear in the south-east corner of the map once at least one player unit crosses near the forest en route to Friege.

Personality
Scipio holds a zealous belief in the dogma of the Empire, in that he considers his aunts Edain and Brigid to be traitors whose children deserve to be killed. He sought to avenge his father's death at the hands of Sigurd's army by defeating Seliph's army.

Trivia
- Scipio's portrait is a recolored version of his father's portrait.
- Despite his TCG artwork depicting him with a sheathed sword, he is only equipped with a bow in his game appearance, though his status as a Master Knight would allow him to use swords and he can easily equip them in the TCG.
