The gatekeeper is a non-playable character from Fire Emblem: Three Houses. He would later appear as a playable character in Fire Emblem Heroes.

Fire Emblem series[]

Fire Emblem: Three Houses[]

As his title suggests, the gatekeeper dutifully watches over the entrance to Garreg Mach Monastery where he can usually be found when Byleth chooses to explore the monastery on a free day. When talked to, the Gatekeeper greets Byleth and talks of current/upcoming events. During Chapter 9, speaking to the gatekeeper lets Byleth choose the student they will see at the Goddess Tower, so long as they have a B-support (or C-support on some students) with said student. Ignoring the gatekeeper will choose a student at random.

Even after the five-year timeskip, the gatekeeper returns and resumes his post when the monastery reopens. However, in the Crimson Flower route, his unnamed brother takes his post as said brother is less devout to the Church of Seiros than the gatekeeper during the Academy Phase. Nonetheless, even his brother who is also referred to as "gatekeeper" greets and converses with Byleth in a similar fashion.

The gatekeeper's dialogues are often comical in nature and play upon the idea that he's actually rather unobservant and inept at his job. No matter the situation, he almost always has nothing to report despite what events may be occurring on the monastery grounds during a given month.
