“ | I am the forgotten god. The betrayed king. The buried dragon! | „ |
~ Anankos introducing himself. |
“ | Why? Why is it wrong to manipulate humans? Your race is weak. It's forgotten its place in the world—forgotten its benefactors. You exist solely for the amusement of your betters—dragons! So answer me, Corrin! Why am I the one left to suffer? Why am I the one left to die? Why do humans flourish while I am buried here...ignored...forgotten? TELL ME WHY! | „ |
~ Anankos' breakdown. |
Anankos (Hydra in the Japanese version) is the main antagonist of Nintendo's 2015 tactical role-playing video game Fire Emblem Fates.
He was originally a mage who was regarded as one of the First Dragons, and also king of Valla and husband of Queen Mikoto. However, he descended to madness due to his dragon's blood and caused the Kingdom of Valla to be in ruins, killing most of its people. Ultimately, he is responsible for the events of the game, since he is the one who possessed King Ganon of Nohr in order to completely destroy the entire world. He also used Prince Takumi of Hoshido (during the Conquest route) and Gunter (during the Revelation route) to further his own agendas.
He is also the father of Corrin and Lilith, with the former being his arch-nemesis alongside his niece Azura, as well as the archenemy of both the Nohr and Hoshido royal families.
In the Japanese version, he is voiced by Akio Ōtsuka in his dragon form and Nobunaga Shimazaki in his human form. In the English version, he is voiced by Travis Willingham in his dragon form and Cam Clarke in his human form.
Personality[]
Anankos has two personalities: His original personality retained from his human life who loved his wife Mikoto and his children the Avatar and Lilith, he also fights back towards his other personality from the tentative to save his wife Mikoto and their child.
The other personality is the one which was born when he fell in the madness from tragic events. In this personality he is cruel, sadistic and ruthless and treats all of the valuable warriors on his side as pawns, while he plans to attack again the newly reconstructed country of Valla, for that he even putted Nohr and Hoshido against each other.
Powers and Abilities[]
As the silent Dragon, Anankos has tremendous strength and power. Anankos holds the power to revive the bodies of the dead to manipulate and control them with his magic to serve him. He gave some of his power to Garon to keep him alive to serve him. If his one of servants fails him, Anankos will turn them into a Faceless as he demonstrated on Anthony. After he devoured Garon, he regained all of his strength that he gave him. His weakness is Azura's song. He created his daughter Lilith from his madness.
In Other Media[]
Fire Emblem Engage[]
Anankos appeared as a Dark Emblem summoned by Lord Sombron during the final battle. He is referred to as Mad Dragon and (female) Corrin was determined to stop him even if he really is at the end of every path she takes like in Fates.
