Thea

*Colter's younger sister. Intelligent and sarcastic.*

 Colter (Brother)

**Thea** is a playable character in *Andaron Saga*. She is the younger sister of Colter and a resident of Malthrak's slums.

## Personality

Thea is a sarcastic and skilled young woman, capable of masterfully wielding a sword only after a few months of training. She has an incredibly close relationship with her brother, Colter, who’s the only family she has left since their parents died. He did leave her alone for years since he got swindled into working for a guild of thieves, and initially, she did hold that against him, but ultimately understood his reasoning. She is also incredibly snarky, often poking at Colter for his close relationship with Baudimon as if it were “romantic” interest, and would often joke (or not) about how she finds some men in the army attractive, much to Colter’s annoyance. Thea also has an odd relationship for Baudimon himself, as initially she shoved him off for trying to hit on her, but it later starts growing into actual interest. During Baudimon’s wedding, she states to Colter that she regrets missing her chance with him and talks about how she could be his mistress; given her sarcastic tendencies it is unclear whether her interest is legitimate or not.

## In Game

### *Andaron Saga*

#### Overall

Thea is the game's first myrmidon, and has a decidedly Lyn-like profile with her base stats and growth rates. Her starting speed and skill coupled with excellent growth rates in both mean she will have absolutely no issues doubling and hitting almost anything if she is trained, but her mediocre strength growth means her offensive stats will often lag behind and force her to rely on high-powered swords to efficiently kill some units. Being sword-locked with an unusable magic stat also drastically worsens her enemy phase potential, as she has no means to damage opponents at 2-range outside of magic swords.

As a sword user she is naturally well-suited to countering the large number of axe users in many of the opening chapters, with Ch. 3 in particular being an especially potent source of XP for her from the sheer number of axe-wielding Centaurs. Her access to an armorslaying weapon means she makes quick work of several kinds of armored opponents in the early game, such as the Khans in Ch. 3, Knights and Generals of Ch. 7 and Great Knights of Ch. 10 and 11. She will most struggle against bulky lance users that become more frequent towards the middle of the early game, particularly the ones in Ch. 8, even with a Lancereaver.

Nevertheless, despite her shortcomings, if trained, promoted to a Swordmaster and given boosts to her strength, Thea does boast very high single-target damage output thanks to her ease of doubling, Adept procs and combination of high might, crits and potentially Luna from her personal Moonblade. Though surpassed on an individual basis by stronger units, particularly those with access to Regalia, she can still hold her own to the end of the game - and if she is to be eventually taken to Ch. 32, she will have to.
