Old men have never fared well in the DL, but Archsage Athos just might be an exception to the rule. Fire Emblem's highest-ranked warrior, Athos has the magical prowess to back up his high ranking. With mastery over all magic, as well as the extreme magical punch one would expect of a renowned archsage, Athos can smother his opponent in either darkness, light, or the very forces of nature. While Leo holds a definite physical edge, Athos' earth-shattering magics will tear the poor knight apart in seconds, easily securing a first victory for Fire Emblem's mightiest.

White Knights and soulful blades, masks and mystery, victory and Leo. All of these go together. Leo was successful both as a leader of men for the Goddess Althena, and later on as a teammate of Hiro's in his quest across the Silver Star. He takes his practice, his pride, his glory, and puts them against an unrelenting fighter as any Leo's faced. While Athos may have scary options with his various elemental books, he's still at heart a mage.. and not even the toughest mage lasts long against the might of Althena's most faithful guardsman.
