° Name °
Eula Ray | エウラ•レイ
[ full name: Eulalia | エウラリア ]
° Family Data °
- Firstborn of Rays, a proud knight family from Southern parts of the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus.
- ◦ In the Academy joins House of the Blue Lions.
- Her family is known by generations of pegasus knights, who often joined the servitude of the Church of Seiros because of their outstanding abilities.
- Her family holds the title of Barons and also a minor Crest of Indech, but it hasn't manifested in their family for a few generations before birth of Eula's younger brother.
- ◦ Eula, herself, doesn't have a Crest.
- Her family is a military one, where they judge one's worth based on the amount of strength one possess. They also value their honor and loyalty to the Kingdom and the Church of Seiros.
- Things that can't be used in their pursuit of power are deemed worthless by them, so they don't have much patience when it comes to weak people.
- They also look with contempt at anything just a little bit fancier than it needs to be for practical reasons, so they raise their kids in an austere environment.
° Personal Data °
- Eula is 17 years old at the start of the game.
- She stands at 164cm (or about 5'4").
- She's overweight and has a hourglass shaped figure. She's somewhere around 77kg (170 lbs).
- At the beginning she had faint freckles, but later in the story they disappeared.
- Same goes for her family earrings, which she's seen to wear before the timeskip. (This happens only if she's recruited.)
- She's extremely clumsy during her Academy days partially because of her undiagnosed farsightedness. That's also a reason why she's always seen in bruises, scratches and bandages. After the timeskip she starts to wear glasses in day to day life, and that improves her movements greatly.
- ◦ She doesn't wear glasses on the battlefield, though, as it's where her farsightedness comes in handy.
- Her hair is asymmetrical at the beginning, because part of it was cut during training at home. But as it was right before her trip to the Academy, she didn't had time to fix it and just braided it.
- It may seem like she dyed her hair blonde, but it's actually the other way around. Her hair thought is extremely prone to become sun-striked, so ends and roots differ from each other in color greatly.
- If given support with Clementine (Mowwiie's OC), in the timeskip she discloses that it was Clementine who inspired Eula to change her hairstyle, because the latter was hoping they would match.
- She has a little sister (Anja, 15) and a little brother (Gilo, 6). The latter was announced as the future heir of their family after his Crest has became known.
- Although in her family kids learn to fly right after they learn to crawl, she doesn't possess the ability to do so due to her fear of heights.
- ◦ She does care for horses, pegasus and wyverns greatly nonetheless and knows how to look after them in great detail.
- She has problems with her body coordination to some extent, so even though she received lance training since her childhood, she isn't actually good with it.
- To be of some use by her family standards she picked up archery, but all her skills were self-taught because her family gave up on her long time ago and never saw a point to find her a private teacher.
- To send her into Officers Academy her family actually reached out to Dimitri, so he would put in a good word for her, because they were certain that Eula wouldn't be able to pass the exams by herself (and they were probably right). Dimitri agreed to it, as Rays family greatly helped him in quelling the rebellion in Western Faerghus and were overall known as loyal and righteous.
- Due to her family constant mistreatment, Eula developed quiet and shy personality. She's insecure, anxious and quick to apologise for the slightest mistake. (If recruited and alive after timeskip her personality changes for more confident, friendly and positive one).
- Her family is highly religious, so she's fluent in teachings of the Church of Seiros, but her faith is wavering because of her doubts.
- She met Byleth before when they were travelling with their father on business matters, and developed a crush on them because of the certain circumstances.
° Game Data °
- Her beginner class is Noble with bow as a main weapon.
- She has a secret affinity with the White Magic and can be trained to become a decent healer.
- Her strength is Bow.
- Her Budding Talent is Faith.
- Her weaknesses are all Melee Weapons and Flying.
- Her special ability is Stall Keeper (when an adjusted horseback or flying ally enters battle, ally’s damage dealt +3).
- She can be promoted inside the Fighter Class family (Fighter, Archer, Sniper) with final class as Marksman at level 30.
- Eula is one of the characters who can have S-Supports with both a male and a female Byleth.
- Her A-Support endings include Sylvain, Claude, Dorothea and Clementine (Mowwiie's OC). (The list will possibly be expanded later.)
° Game Mechanics °
Eula is one of the easiest characters to recruit as she would gladly follow Byleth no matter what route they'll choose.
But! She's also the trickiest to keep alive during timeskip.
If the conditions aren't met, during routes other than Azure Moon and Silver Snow, Byleth will be informed that she died by the hands of her sister Anja, as she was claimed traitor by her family.
To keep her alive player can either:
- Train her to pass Certification Exams to promote her in game;
- ◦ Then Eula will kill her sister herself.
- Give her B-Support with someone other than Anja;
- ◦ Then that character will protect her during the attack and kill her sister for her.
- Give her B-Support with Anja, who can be recruited to any House after she appears in "Chapter 2: Familiar Scenery" if Byleth pass her recruitment conditions (10 Strength and C in Flying);
- ◦ Then Anja betrays her family for her sister and afterwards fights them together with her at the battlefield.
