Hannah (Japanese: ハンナ Hannah) is a minor NPC appearing in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. She is one of the characters that runs the augury function in the preparations menu.
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade
Role
Hannah's primary gameplay role is as one of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade's two augury characters. Hannah also alerts the player when the weather is about to change during certain battles.[1] Hannah takes the mantle for the initial half of the game, though she leaves when the party reaches Bern and is replaced by Nils. Hannah charges a small fee for her services while Nils does his predictions for free. Hannah's advice, including tips on how to recruit certain characters, is of the most use to new players.
Hannah, or at the very least, a character using her portrait, first appears in the village in chapter 13, giving whoever visits a mine, one of her new inventions.[2]
Hannah reappears in chapter 14 and directly approaches Eliwood, claiming to seek the boy in search of his father.[3] Hector is annoyed by her presence though Eliwood allows her to speak regardless.[4] Eliwood immediately asks if her powers of prophecy can tell him the location of his father, but she states she cannot. Instead, she claims she can provide advice and predictions for upcoming battles. Hector is still incredulous, though Eliwood allows Hannah to accompany them in hopes of any small thing that will aid him in finding his missing father.[5]
Hannah eventually leaves the party of her own volition due to the numerous stressful situations she has had to endure. Her ultimate fate is not elaborated as she does not have any character endings.

Personality and character
Hannah is not afraid to voice her complaints of her dangerous working conditions. Her true reasons for accompanying Eliwood are unknown, it is possible she simply wanted a source of income, as she charges for her services, though it is never explicitly stated. Regardless of her reasons, she eventually leaves the group on her own when she deems things have become too dangerous and she has endured enough of the hardships of travel already.
