“I...must return home alive. My family is waiting for me...”

—Dorcas in a support conversation with Geitz

**多爾卡斯**（Dorcas、ドルカス） 是以下遊戲中可使用的角色：聖火降魔錄 烈火之劍、聖火降魔錄英雄雲集。 首先出現在琳的故事， 之後和老朋友巴多爾一起參加了艾利烏德的團隊 He originally is a mercenary working for a group of bandits 琳 and her friends are fighting, but after he finds out Lyndis is protecting his wife Natalie from the very same group of bandits he is working for, he decides to join her group. When asked why he was working as a mercenary, he says that he needs money for his injured wife's treatments. Later, in 艾利烏德's mode, Dorcas comes out of a village on the second turn, along with his rival and friend, 巴多爾. In 海克托爾's mode, they both join when Eliwood's group is encountered. During chapter 15, in a conversation with Lyn, Dorcas revealed that some time after Lyn's group defeated Lundgren he and Natalie moved to Lycia and settle down in Pherae, where Natalie remains, waiting for Dorcas's return and hoping that Lyn would visit them.

At the end of the game, Dorcas ends up having earned the money he needed and returns home to his wife, Natalie, and buys her the needed care. He lives the rest of his life calmly with her, which implies that he was deceased before the War on Bern or that he simply was not involved in the violence at all.

個性
--

Dorcas is a reserved and silent man, making him contrast a bit with the more brash and headstrong Bartre. However, he clearly loves his wife, Natalie, and is willing to go to almost any extent to get the money to treat her illness, even resorting to banditry. However, he doesn't want to be a burden to his group, exemplified when Bartre offers to try and get a raise from Eliwood and Dorcas declines. Similarly, he refuses money Farina tries to lend him. The fact that once he can care for Natalie they live calmly together implies that he prefers a peaceful lifestyle.

#### 總體

With his large amount of strength, HP, and unusually decent luck and skill, Dorcas can overcome his lacking defense. The most noticeable flaws are his low resistance, which is common among heavier units and his abysmal speed. Thankfully, Dorcas starts with a decent speed stat for his level,and most of the generic enemies in his game have low speed. Nomads, Myrmidons, and Mercenaries can routinely double him, but Dorcas should not be engaging Myrmidons and Mercenaries to begin with. In 海克托爾's Hard Mode campaign, most promoted units will be capable of doubling Dorcas, so players may want to consider using Geitz, 巴多爾, or even forgoing non-Hector axe users altogether, instead
Dorcas' low speed and resistance can be salvaged to an extent by Speedwings and Talismans. Dorcas does have many defensive supports, so he can make up for his low avoid with a good support partners, Bartre or Oswin, who have enough HP to fight alongside him on the frontlines.

Lyn: For gold? Anything? Would you hurt your wife? Natalie is here! We're protecting her within this fortress!!

Dorcas: What!? Natalie's... She's here?

Lyn: She was so worried that she came looking for you. Think, Dorcas! Would your actions please your wife?

Dorcas: ...... ..You're right.

軼事
--

* Dorcas appears in an American ad for *The Blazing Blade*, as the speaker poisons Dorcas' mutton, and he dies after eating it.
	+ In the English version of *Fire Emblem Heroes*, one of Dorcas' quotes has him claiming that he "had some bad mutton earlier", alluding to the scene in the commercial.
	+ Additionally, he has a fourth select quote: "Trust nobody", referencing to the commercial's tag line "Build an army, trust nobody."
* Humorously, Dorcas will attack Natalie while he is still an enemy unit (only possible on Lyn's Hard mode), thus resulting in a game over.
* Despite Dorcas' credits quote (if he was defeated in Lyn's story) saying that he never saw her again, he does meet her again if he doesn't die in Eliwood's story before Lyn is recruited.
* Dorcas came in 12th place for males in the *Fire Emblem Heroes Choose Your Legends* popularity poll. He came in 21st place for overall votes.
* Dorcas shares his English voice actor, Kirk Thornton, with Yen'fay in 聖火降魔錄 覺醒.

Dorcas was a disciple of Joppa found in the Book of Acts 9:36–42 of the Bible. She was a dressmaker who made clothes for the poor in her village. She later died of an illness; however, she was brought back to life upon Peter's prayer.
