'''Karla''' (Japanese: {{hl|カアラ|Kāra}} ''Karla'') is a playable [[Swordmaster]] in {{FE7}}. She is the sister of [[Karel]], wife of [[Bartre]], and mother of [[Fir]].
She is the sister of [[Karel]], wife of [[Bartre]], and mother of [[Fir]].  
 
==Biography==
{{refs}}<!--not needed for second paragraph, which is just events of Chapter&nbsp;31x-->
 
Karla began training in swordsmanship to get closer to her brother. Karel had become obsessed with swordplay, and murdered their entire family in order to keep the secrets of their sword technique to himself; only Karla was spared due to refusing to wield "a skill that could only be used to kill". Karla went on a journey to track down her brother. During her travels in the [[Western Isles]], she was challenged by [[Bartre]] and knocked him out in a single blow.
 
Eventually, Karla travels to Ostia at the same time [[Eliwood]] and [[Hector]] prepare for their final confrontation with [[Nergal]]. Bartre, now a member of their party, may challenge her to a rematch; if the battle ends inconclusively, Karla joins the group upon learning their objective, as her brother gravitates towards strong warriors.
 
After Nergal's defeat, she marries Bartre and has a daughter, [[Fir]], who inherits her sword skills. Karla eventually dies of an illness some time before the [[Disturbance of Bern]].

{{sectstub}}
Karla is arguably the worst unit in ''The Blazing Blade'', for several different reasons.
 
* Firstly, she provides nothing new: by this point, there are several sword fighting units who can do everything she can do just as competently. [[Lyn]], [[Marcus]], [[Jaffar]], [[Harken]], and [[Isadora]] are but a few examples of this, and a good few of them bring more to the table than just killing things.
* Second, her movement is average, and the upcoming chapters are very large and require lots of movement. [[Victory or Death]], the chapter after she joins, is extremely big in particular, but there are a lot of dangerous areas in [[Light (part 1)|Light]] and mobility to rush in or out is vital to success.
* Third, because she uses swords, her options for 1–2 range (which is necessary for good enemy phase combat) are extremely limited, and the only 2 range attacks she can do are the magic swords [[Runesword]], [[Light Brand]], and [[Wind Sword]] (which requires the [[Mario Kart: Double Dash!! bonus disc|''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' bonus disc]]), which negate the Swordmasters' critical bonus when attacking at range (or for the Runesword, at all).
* Fourth, her recruitment is extremely late into the game, and has several failure conditions, including if Bartre is killed, not trained, or not deployed. There is a lot of effort needed to get Bartre at an appropriate level throughout the game due to his terrible speed and overall shaky start, which only gets worse in Hector Hard Mode.
* Lastly, due to her late recruitment, she can only contribute for a few chapters before [[Athos]] and even [[Renault]] show her up in combat. Both of them hit resistance, which most enemies have less of than defense, and provide staff utility, which Karla cannot replicate.
 
Nevertheless, if you absolutely dedicate yourself to using her, she will still not do much other units cannot accomplish. Besides her supports, she has nothing of value that cannot be replicated, unless your army is in dire need of her services for some reason (such as a massacre of your units).
 
As a positive point towards Karla, she joins with another Wo Dao, which can be useful for one aiming towards the Funds ranking.
 
Overall, Karla serves as an easter egg character at best, and a horrible unit at worst.

Karla is naive, emotionally distant and cool-natured. Although Karla has mastered the art of swordplay, she generally does not like fighting and often finds peaceful methods of resolving conflict, such as fighting in arenas mostly in hopes of finding her brother, Karel. Still, due to not being influenced by the other tribes, leading to an ignorant outlook of the world, and even after Karla finds out the truth about what Karel did to their family, she strives to redeem him, or die trying.

==Trivia==  
==Trivia==
* Karla is arguably the most difficult character to recruit in {{title|The Blazing Blade}}. Despite this, she is widely considered to be inferior to her brother [[Karel]], and isn't a particularly impressive unit in general.
* Karla's paired ending with [[Bartre]] can be read to imply that Bartre committed suicide after Karla's death; however, Bartre appears alive in {{FE6}} after her death. Bartre "joining" Karla is not said or implied in the Japanese version and is a translation error.<ref>{{Cite web|quote=The camaraderie of two who met in the Western Isles, met again in Ostia, and thus recognized each other [as warriors] in battle. That [camaraderie] naturally turned into deep love, and the two were wed. Afterward, it is said that wife Karla, who was struck down by illness, clutched husband Bartre's hand, entrusted the daughter she left behind to her estranged [older] brother, and quietly breathed her last.|author=Amielleon|published=August 19th, 2014|retrieved=February 9th, 2017|url=http://fe-according-to-japan.tumblr.com/post/95190539419/i-dont-think-this-has-been-asked-before-and-its|title=Fire Emblem (according to Japan)|site=fe-according-to-japan.tumblr.com}}</ref>
* Karla's [[Dark (affinity)|dark affinity]] is tied with the [[Light (affinity)|light affinity]] for being the rarest [[affinity]] in {{FE7}}, both having four carriers. The other three carriers of the [[Dark (affinity)|dark affinity]] are [[Rath]], [[Merlinus]], and [[Isadora]].
* Karla's paired ending with [[Bartre]] can be read to imply that Bartre committed suicide after Karla's death. This does not make sense, as Bartre appears alive and well in {{FE6}} after her death. Bartre "joining" Karla is not said or implied in the Japanese version and is a translation error.<ref>{{Cite web| quote=The camaraderie of two who met in the Western Isles, met again in Ostia, and thus recognized each other [as warriors] in battle.
