“This whole kingdom is one big pile of filth. This is all I got. Do my job, and I survive. I got family weighing me down. So I gotta keep climbing up. The weak die. If you want to push back against that, you gotta push hard. If I want to make it, I gotta kill who the big man says I gotta kill. That simple.”
—Helbindi to Ylgr, Chapter 9

Helbindi is an antagonist from Fire Emblem Heroes. Present during Múspell's invasion of Nifl, he was subsequently promoted to general.

Profile[]

Though Helbindi came from nothing, he rose through the ranks thanks to his talent in battle, eventually becoming a general of Múspell's army. As the Order of Heroes cross into Múspell, he faces them in battle but is eventually forced to retreat to the Fortress of Cinders, where he attempts to stop the captive Ylgr from starving herself to death. Later on, he attempts to have Ylgr transported to the castle on Surtr's orders by one of his underlings, explaining to her his own situation at the moment, only for Ylgr to deduce that Helbindi has a little sister of his own, whose name is Menja. Challenging the Order of Heroes, he finds himself defeated and forced to retreat, mentioning that Menja needs him.

He is then rescued by Laegjarn, who conceals his survival from Surtr in order to assist them in battle in exchange from his and his sister's life. Thus, he's seen challenging the Order of Heroes numerous times until Chapter 12 when, after being defeated again, Laegjarn releases him from his service and informs him that after his loss at the Fortress, Surtr burned the slums where he grew up to make an example of him, killing everyone including Menja.

In Chapter 13, Helbindi helps Ylgr and Veronica escape Surtr's castle to prevent them from being sacrificed to the Rite of Flames. After getting lost in the corridors, he orders the girls to keep going, claiming he'll catch up. In truth, this is only so that he can buy them time, as he encounters Surtr who's about to punish him for his treachery. Making a last stand against Surtr, Helbindi says his upcoming death is what he deserves. What happened to him is unknown, but it's likely he died fighting Surtr.

Personality[]

Helbindi has a blunt personality and a short temper, but he is not cruel and seems to worry about Ylgr's well being, despite her being his prisoner, though he expresses concern under the guise that Ylgr needs to be strong enough to get revenge, as he is reluctant to admit his feelings and thoughts to others. Helbindi's caring nature is further exemplified by his primary motivation for fighting for Surtr in the first place being to support and protect his family, most notably his sister Menja.

Meet Some of the Heroes[]

Savage Scourge Helbindi
	Helbindi is a general of Múspell, the Kingdom of Flame. He has an intimidating appearance and a reputation for cruelty and violence.
	Helbindi was born in the slums, but he rose to prominence thanks to his efforts in Múspell's invasion of Nifl, the Kingdom of Ice.
	To him, there's nothing more important than victory—and it seems that might have something to do with his sister back in the slums.
	Helbindi knows that if he falls in battle, his family will be left with no one to fend for them. So while he may seem frightening at first, I guess there's a thoughtful big brother lurking underneath the surface!
