Laurent (FE)

Laurent is a character from the Fire Emblem series.
== Charactah Account ==
Miriel's son from the future. He's a model student, smart and serious, but is easily influenced by those surrounding him. Because he has a good eye for detail, he's able to solve issues with ease. He's infamous for his shining glasses.
Laurent can be a bit cold and callous, much like his mother, as he inherited his mother's incredible academic prowess. While Miriel's scientific inquiries are focused in theory and discovering natural laws, Laurent tends to find practical applications for the subjects he studies, such as making the world's first fireworks in a support conversation with Miriel.
In addition, he oversees the Shepherd's treasury, having a strict stance on the budget and purchasing items that are needed. Laurent often checks on the well-being of others, and will help them in any way possible if he needs to step in. However, sometimes he wonders if his advice actually helps, as he occasionally doubts that it may be just "inflated" ego and that the people he talks to have better ability than him.

== Trivia ==
* Laurent's birthday is the same day that Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade was first released in Japan.
* Laurent shares his English voice actor, Patrick Seitz, with Basilio, Zeke, Hector, Draug, Garon, Brady, and Jeritza.
* His artwork shows him wielding a Tome, most likely a fire-based tome.
** Despite that, the tome Laurent carries in his Paralogue is Elwind, a wind-based tome.
* His map sprite as a Mage shows Laurent adjusting his glasses.
* In his S-rank support with Severa, she asks if he can guess what she wants, to which he asks her if it is some kind of riddle and replies, "are you going to ask me (Laurent) what you have in your (Severa) pocket next?" This is possibly a reference to the riddle contest between Gollum and Bilbo in 'The Hobbit.'
* He is the only Unit in Awakening that is recruited from a village.
** As his birthday is The Blazing Blade's release date, this may be a reference to units like Canas, who would be recruited only by visiting a village.
* Laurent has unique battle models for each of his Mage related classes:
** As a Mage, he wears black and red robes and has a black hat.
** As a Sage, he wears black and grey robes.
* After defeating an enemy, all of Laurent's classes use the same victory animation, even though all classes have their own unique victory pose.
* Laurent is currently the only Awakening child unit that has yet be included in Fire Emblem Heroes in any form.
* Lucina's support with Laurent grows at a faster rate compared to other characters, and vice-versa.
