Lyn (Full name Lyndis, リン, Lin in Japanese versions), is a character from the Fire Emblem series, specifically Fire Emblem 7. She is the second female main character in the series after Fire Emblem Gaiden. Born in the Sacaen Plains, her parents—Lord Hassar, chieftain of the Lorca tribe, and Madelyn, daughter of Lord Hausen of Caelin—were killed by bandits before the beginning of the game. Unlike most Fire Emblem games, Fire Emblem 7 has a Tactician character to represent the player, s/he has no lines, and has minimal effect on game (gender modifies certain lines said to the Tactician, and Tactician's birth month adjusts certain character's stats during chapters). Upon meeting him or her, Lyn decides to follow him or her in the interest of training her sword skills.
Lyn is the main lord for the Prologue to Chapter 10 of the game, she is the only lord in Fire Emblem 7 not to appear as an NPC in Fire Emblem 6: Fuuin no Tsurugi. Her 11 chapters serve as a way to teach the player how to play the game and how various mechanics of the game work. Her chapters are also the only time where character death is NOT permanent to the game (except if she dies, you lose). Her chapters may be skipped on later playthroughs, as all they do is allow you to increase the stats and levels of characters that appear during her portion of the story.
In Super Smash Brothers Brawl
In Brawl, she appears as an Assist Trophy. She charges her sword, then disappears and reappears near an enemy, slashing them. This is her critical attack in FE7. This attack is amazingly powerful and accurate, even against a moving or airborn foe. There is no known outside range for her to hit in, and some testing needs to be done.
In this appearance Lyn wields the Mani Katti, not her more powerful quasi-legendary Weapon the Sol Katti. Compare the playable Fire Emblem characters Marth, Roy and Ike, who fight with their legendary weapons (The Falchion, Sword of Seals and Ragnell respectively). However, it should be noted that, as her sprites show when using it, the Sol Katti is enormous, even larger than Lyn herself.
