'''Corrin''' ({{ja|カムイ|Kamui}}, ''Kamui'') is the default name for the main protagonist and player avatar of ''{{iw|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem Fates}}''.

Garon sends Corrin to inspect a Hoshidan fortress above the Bottomless Canyon to pardon their crime. However, one of Garon's men, {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Hans}}, provokes the Hoshidans into battle and knocks {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Gunter}}, one of Corrin's companions, into the abyss of the canyon. Hoshidan soldiers later find and capture Corrin, who eventually recognizes them as the long-lost member of the Hoshidan royal family. Corrin meets their blood relatives and the songstress {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Azura}}, a former Nohrian Princess raised in Hoshido, in Hoshido's capital city. However, a hooded assassin attempts to kill Corrin, with Corrin's mother, Queen {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Mikoto}}, shielding them at the cost of her life. Out of distress, Corrin's dragon blood is awakened, transforming them into a Feral Dragon and causing them to rampage. Their rampage routs the hooded assassin as well as other mysterious soldiers in pursuit of Hoshido. Corrin is calmed down by Azura, who sings {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Lost in Thoughts All Alone}} to revert them to their human form. Afterwards, Corrin is given a dragonstone to control their dragon form at will, and claims the legendary Yato blade, which is said to belong to the one who will save the world. The Hoshidan and Nohrian royal families eventually meet in battle, and Corrin is forced to either stay with their adoptive family in Nohr, return to their blood family in Hoshido, or refuse to choose a side.

Since ''Fates'', both the default male and female versions of Corrin have appeared in other ''Fire Emblem'' games. Both versions of Corrin can be summoned as illusory allies in ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia}}'' using the matching ''Smash'' [[amiibo]], and both versions appear as units the player can recruit in the crossover game ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem Heroes}}''. Female Corrin also appears prominently as a playable character in ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem Warriors}}'', with the male version of Corrin available as well outside of story mode.

:{{Flag|North America}} ''Corrin joins the battle from Fire Emblem Fates. Born in Hoshido but kidnapped by Nohr at a young age, Corrin was brought up by Nohrian royalty. Descended from the First Dragons, Corrin has the power to transform into a dragon. In Smash, Corrin can change parts of the body into lance-like hands and feet that have a long reach that deal more damage at the tips.''

:{{Flag|Europe}} ''Corrin from Fire Emblem Fates was born a Hoshido royal but kidnapped as a child and raised by the Nohr royal family. Descended from the First Dragons, Corrin has the power to transform into a dragon. In Smash this means lance-like hands and feet with a long reach whose tips deal the most damage. Use this reach to inflict high damage at a distance!''

:{{Flag|North America}} ''Corrin's side special, Dragon Lunge, is no normal attack–skewer a surface with a lance-like arm, and it will suspend you in the air. Pin an enemy while doing this, and you can keep them in place and then follow up with a flying kick forward or back or just jump up. You can only thrust the lance once before landing.''

*Corrin and [[Byleth]] are the only ''Fire Emblem'' fighters whose continent is not represented with an Assist Trophy. [[Tiki]] represents both the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Archanea}} and {{s|fireemblemwiki|Ylisse}} series, [[Lyn]] represents the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Elibe}} series, and the [[Black Knight]] represents the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Tellius}} series.

*Corrin's male artwork in ''SSB4'' is similar to his official art in ''Fates'', albeit with his left hand in a different position and his sword being angled more downwards. The female artwork, however, is identical to her official art in ''Fates'', but she now wears black stockings covering her inner thighs. Both artworks also feature the two wielding the Omega Yato instead of the standard Yato.

*Corrin is the only ''Fire Emblem'' character to have both a counter and a projectile.

*Though Corrin appears as male by default in ''Smash'', most media released after ''Fates'' more prominently features female Corrin, such as the ''Fire Emblem Cipher'' card game and ''Fire Emblem Warriors''. This is also reflected in ''Ultimate'', as female Corrin receives prominent focus despite being an [[alternate costume]]; for example, she appears in the [[opening movie]] and the panoramic {{SSBU|Classic Mode}} banner.

*Corrin, [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Snake]], and [[Joker]] are the only fighters to have featured material from upcoming games in ''Smash'', whether by means of their universe's content or moveset⁠—in Corrin's case, their inclusion as DLC marked the debut of the English version of "Lost in Thoughts All Alone", two weeks before the American launch of ''Fire Emblem Fates''.

*As with [[Pokémon Trainer]], [[Villager]], Robin, and the [[Inkling]]s, the male and female variants of Corrin are established as separate entities in at least one instance. In ''Fire Emblem Warriors'', one gender of Corrin can encounter the other as an enemy in a bonus mission.

*Corrin, along with [[Ike]], are the only ''Fire Emblem'' characters that aren't based on [[Marth]] moveset wise to have counters.
