So Red Knight/Green Knight archtypes for some of the games. The starting duo of Cain and Abel are pretty basic in personality and that is mostly because if you played only Shadow Dragon and have only tidbits of what they're like through Heroes they really don't have personalities. At lower difficulties, Cain's power doesn't come at as much of a cost in Shadow Dragon, but both are overshadowed by Frey if you play the tutorial and keep him.

For FE6, I tried both. Once again they're both pretty plain, and Lance has a benefit of higher speed and skill. Alan/Allen however, has higher strength but at the cost of speed and skill, and thus accuracy. In a game with more notable 90% accuracy missing way more often than you'd think. I haven't really gotten either to Paladin.

Kent and Sain are similar in the case of one is stronger with lower accuracy and the other is weaker with a higher chance of outspeeding opponents. And really, to be honest Sain gets enough speed to double, but I've seemingly had better luck with Kent all the time due to that accuracy, especially once he hit Paladin and could utilize axes to remove his strength deficit. And I really do like Kent's personality, even though it's dull to some. Meanwhile, Sain comes off too strongly.

Franz and Forde, is just one where I'm going to be weird. Franz, for me, comes fairly weak but early enough to train him, but you also gain some other units around him that are equally, if not more rewarding if you train. And even his niche of good movement is ruined by... Well, the fact that Seth is actually competent in the late game too. I've seen a Franz still be behind Seth even after a late promotion. Forde could easily be behind too, but one of the biggest benefits for me with him, is the fact that all of his supports end the game with mounted movement. He provides utility to both of the Lords, so whichever route he's in, he can support them with Wind Affinity. Granted, not that supports are that necessary in Sacred Stones, but it's always nice. Also, Forde is pretty much my favorite womanizer currently because he's not fully upfront and flirty, he's subtle and suave.
