Article on Fire Emblem Wiki Nosferatu

Nosferatu (リザイア, Resire) is Robin's down special move in Super Smash Bros. 4. If Robin is near an opponent, he can use this special to curse the opponent and drain health from them, damaging them while healing himself. How much is recovered per percentage point of damage is not known, although Robin will heal more percentage if he curses an opponent from behind[1]. It changes Robin's active Tome to Nosferatu if not already in use.

Origin

Nosferatu is a special Dark tome from the Fire Emblem series (except for the Tellius games, which has Nosferatu as a Light tome due to an absence of Dark tomes in Path of Radiance). When the unit casts Nosferatu, whichever damage he or she inflicts will return to the caster in the form of healing. This effect carries over into Smash 4.

Robin ordinarily cannot use dark magic in Fire Emblem: Awakening; however, Sakurai gave Robin the ability to use Nosferatu in order to "capture certain aspects of the original title".[2]

Trivia

  • Nosferatu is the first down special move to belong to a Fire Emblem representative that isn't Counter.
