<!--Despite the presence of two genders available for Robin in both Fire Emblem: Awakening and Super Smash Bros. 4, SmashWiki uses male pronouns when addressing the character due to the male's greater prominence in the reveal trailer and official site.-->
'''Robin''' ({{ja|ルフレ|Rufure}}, ''Reflet'') is the default name for the avatar character in ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem: Awakening}}''.

==Character description==
The idea of having an avatar for the player in the ''Fire Emblem'' series was previously explored in ''[[fireemblemwiki:Fire Emblem (game)|Fire Emblem]]'' on the Game Boy Advance and ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem, Heroes of Light and Shadow}}'' on the Nintendo DS. These two games featured avatar characters named (by default) [[fireemblemwiki:Tactician (Blazing Sword)|Mark]] and [[fireemblemwiki:Avatar (New Mystery of the Emblem)|Kris]], respectively. Mark, however, is not a playable unit, nor is he a pivotal character in the story; his appearance is often hidden, thus his customization is limited to gender and name. It was not until the creation of Kris when an avatar character could be used as a unit on the battlefield, and would be given prominence and personality in the story on par with its main character, [[Marth]]. Kris' customization is also greatly expanded from Mark's, giving the player more freedom for his/her appearance and playstyle.

''Fire Emblem: Awakening'' reuses the idea of an avatar character once again in a customizable character named Robin by default, who is a main character alongside Chrom, similar to Kris and Marth before them.

Before the story officially begins, the player is met with the Premonition, which briefly highlights the events of an alternate timeline.

In the beginning of the game, Robin is found lying in an open field by Chrom, his sister {{s|fireemblemwiki|Lissa}}, and his bodyguard {{s|fireemblemwiki|Frederick}}. They find out that Robin is an amnesiac who remembers nothing besides his name, Chrom's name and his incredible knowledge and experience in fighting battles, which Chrom experiences first hand after they manage to save a small settlement despite the strength and numbers of the enemy. Frederick suspects Robin of being an assassin due to him remembering Chrom's name before his own, but Chrom is convinced of Robin's good intentions and invites him to join the [[fireemblemwiki:Shepherds (group)|Shepherds]] as their chief tactician, with the two quickly becoming close friends. {{s|fireemblemwiki|Ylisse}}, Chrom's home country, is then faced with a war against {{s|fireemblemwiki|Plegia}} (which is later revealed to be Robin's home country) and another against {{s|fireemblemwiki|Valm}} two years later, both in which Robin's tactical expertise proves very helpful, especially given Ylisse's limited number of soldiers. There is also the constant threat of the {{s|fireemblemwiki|Risen}}, undead soldiers who terrorize parts of the [[fireemblemwiki:Archanea (continent)|continent of Ylisse]]. As the Shepherds continue to fight and recruit more capable members, [[Lucina]], Chrom's daughter from the future, properly introduces herself to them, having only met them while she was disguising herself as Marth. She travelled back in time to warn them about the revival of the Fell Dragon [[fireemblemwiki:Grima (character)|Grima]] after having her own world on the brink of destruction courtesy of him. Robin, Chrom, Lucina, and the rest of the Shepherds make it their new mission to prevent the Grima of the current timeline from surfacing.

In game, Robin starts in the [[fireemblemwiki:Tactician (class)|Tactician]] class exclusive to him, his potential children, and DLC characters, which enables them to attack with magic tomes as well as swords. As the avatar character, Robin and his potential children can switch to any starting class the player desires using a {{s|fireemblemwiki|Second Seal}} (aside from Lord, which is exclusive to Chrom and Lucina), making for one of the biggest skill pools possible for a single character. Robin can also support with every other character (as could Kris previously), and marry any opposite gendered character the player wants, including the future children of other Shepherds that are met via Paralogues (side stories) as more characters within the Shepherds marry each other. Robin's customization focuses more on appearance and even features several options for voice.

After ''Awakening'', Robin's second appearance in the ''Fire Emblem'' series is as an optional party member in ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem Fates}}''. Here, he is summoned in-game using his [[amiibo]], and is recruited by defeating him and his allies on a special map; as he is now a set character and no longer a customizable avatar, he is fixed to have his default male appearance and voice from both ''Awakening'' and ''Smash''. Dialogue shows that the version of Robin here is the same one that appeared in ''Smash'' itself.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==

{{main|Robin (SSB4)}}
Robin appears as a newcomer in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. Players can choose either the male or female models of the character, based on the default appearances for both genders in the Tactician class. They use tomes of various elements (Fire, Thunder, Wind, and Darkness) along with a {{s|fireemblemwiki|Levin Sword}}. Their tomes and Levin Sword have a limited amount of uses before they break, reminiscent of the durability system in the ''Fire Emblem'' series; they will recharge after a certain amount of time has passed. If the Levin Sword breaks, they use an unbreakable {{s|fireemblemwiki|Bronze Sword}} instead.

==Trivia==
*Alongside [[Lucina]], they are the first characters in the {{uv|Fire Emblem}} series who debuted in the same game to appear in a ''Smash Bros.'' game.
*Robin is the first playable ''Fire Emblem'' character ''Smash Bros.'' that is never a Lord in any of the games he appears in.
**In the game Robin appears in, ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem: Awakening}}'', [[Chrom]] and Lucina are the Lords.
**However, the player still receives a Game Over if their Tactician dies, a trait shared by nearly all Lord characters and main protagonists in the series.
