Some time later, Ashnard used Soren as bait to lure Almedha's brother, Prince Rajaion, into a trap. This proved to be successful and Ashnard transformed Rajaion into a Feral I and his personal mount.

Eventually, Soren was separated from his parents and taken in by a woman who is stated to have only done it "out of duty" and was verbally and physically calumniating towards him.

The adult female was delighted to exist rid of her brunt of looking subsequently Soren and received money in bounty. The sage put him through terribly rigorous magic training, had him work day and night, without cease. Eventually, the sage taught him how to use magic.

Afterwards the sage died, Soren sought aid from a nearby beorc village, but he was forcibly chased away. He also discovered that he was unable to speak, despite being skilled in listening, reading, and writing. When he was nigh death by starvation, a immature Ike found him and gave his ain lunch to him. Ike also promised to feed him over again on the side by side day. Yet, on the following day, Soren discovered the carnage left by Greil's berserk rampage that was triggered by Lehran's Medallion.

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn

Soren commencement appears aslope the Greil Mercenaries when they rescue Lucia from her execution at the hands of Ludveck's army. During the cutscene, he is nigh ambushed by a soldier from behind, as he was lost in his books, but Mia saves him.

In Role 3, he serves the Laguz Alliance as a strategist, but Skrimir looked down upon him as Soren chose to be furtive than charging at the front end. His ingenious plans at some of the decisive clashes between Begnion and the Laguz Alliance, however –such as how they would throw the baby-sit of the "impregnable" Fort Mugill into disarray likewise as the Ribahn River crossing to hit the enemy – made him alter his mind.

In a special conversation in the epilogue, Soren's true identity as the prince of Daein is revealed, as Almedha realizes it upon seeing him and expresses her pride in him. Nonetheless, Almedha did not introduce herself to Soren every bit his mother, being a truth that she would continue to hold forever buried within her middle, never known to history.

Personality

Typically rude and common cold towards others, Soren prefers to be lonely rather than with the rest of the company. Equally a result, he appears to be high-strung, though Titania thinks that this is because Soren is "a very empathetic immature man." Even so, afterward the Mad King's War, his outlook started to change ever so slightly, and he would be seen talking to others such equally Titania and Ranulf likewise.

Behaving with logic and thinking from a contemptuous viewpoint due to his hard childhood, he puts the feelings or circumstances of others aside if information technology benefits the mercenaries, oftentimes suggesting not to help others if it hinders their cause unless they tin gain something from it. Although he is criticized for this, his tactics are still regarded as impeccable by many, including Ike, who views him equally "essential" to the company. Soren's tactics also earned him the attention of Skrimir, who never even thought about tactics prior to their meeting.

In the starting time of Path of Radiance, Soren displays a rather obvious dislike for laguz. However, with Ike'south assurance, he is able to hold it back. His resentment towards laguz is also present during Radiant Dawn, albeit non as strongly as it is in Path of Radiance.

Soren shows a great amount of compassion towards Ike and seems to take devoted his life to him. Ike seems to take swell insight into Soren's personality, calling him a "softie" who tries to put on a strong face in one of their conversations in Path of Radiance. His extreme loyalty to Ike tin be compared to the devotion that Almedha harbors towards her false son, Pelleas. Throughout the game, Soren is regarded equally "the male child always at Ike'due south side" by other characters, with him himself besides declaring that Ike is his only friend.

Soren likewise seems to dislike beingness interrupted, equally seen when he is explaining his battle plans to Skrimir. This is also shown when he receives the Hammerne staff from Aimee.

Overall

Subjective: The following office of this commodity is based upon the editor'due south personal experiences and opinions, and therefore may not exist applicative for all readers.

Soren is the offset mage available to the role player in Path of Radiance. He joins in affiliate 4 and is available in every map from then on, allowing him to quickly rack upwardly kills and experience. Due to the fact that he targets resistance, he is able to bargain heavy chip damage to enemy armor knights and soldiers, amid others. His offensive stats will quickly grow and allow him to readily contribute. He does, nevertheless, have several flaws. His near notable issue is his low movement of five, the same every bit an Armor Knight. This can event in some difficulty reaching the fray, especially with how prevalent mounts are in this game. His depression bulk, fifty-fifty in comparison to other mages, can cause issues as well (though he has adequately reliable avert). Betwixt both of these things, some might consider him ill-suited for front-line combat. Soren as well has very bad Strength, which makes tome weight an issue early. However, if the actor does non mind making small accommodations for him, Soren can be a useful thespian phase unit of measurement, or fifty-fifty an enemy phase unit if his Speed is sufficient. Something Soren has over the other mages is Adept, which, though information technology has a low initial activation charge per unit, can often push Soren over to the point of getting a kill.

When information technology comes time to promote Soren, the player has the choice to requite him staves or knives. Staves are the ameliorate option by far, as he will practically never desire to utilize knives instead of magic, and they volition give him a piffling scrap of healer utility. Once Soren has become a Sage, his growths should accept managed to pull him out of his initial funk, and he can be a reliable combat unit of measurement.

Overall, Soren is a grapheme who tends to live and die past his growth rates, just on average, he is ordinarily a stiff combatant and one of the best sources of 1-2 range magic damage. Compared to other mages, his greatest reward is his availability, which gives him many opportunities to prove his worth.
