This is a character list for the Nintendo GameCube game Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, which is a tactical role-playing game developed by Intelligent Systems; it is the ninth game of the Fire Emblem series. The list summarizes the roles of all playable characters (units that can be controlled by the player) and major non-player characters (units that can't be controlled by the player) that appear during the course of the story. The game introduced the concept of laguz and beorc to the Fire Emblem universe; laguz are humanoid creatures that have the ability to transform into animals, and beorc are the traditional units (humans). For general information about the game itself, see the main article.
Since Fire Emblem: Fūin no Tsurugi, all Fire Emblem games have contained the "support" function. Certain pairs of units that fight alongside each other can gain a bonus that allows them to fight better. These gains are triggered by support conversations, in which the player gains more information about the personality of the two units involved. There can only be three conversations between the same pair of units.
Like other Fire Emblem games, Path of Radiance was praised by reviewers for its character development; some reviewers state a particular emotional attachment to individual characters in Path of Radiance, which was present in previous Fire Emblem installments. Most of these characters return in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, which is set three years after Path of Radiance.

“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.
Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
—Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)
“Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“The divinity in man is the true vestal fire of the temple which is never permitted to go out, but burns as steadily and with as pure a flame on the obscure provincial altar as in Numa’s temple at Rome.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Among the best traitors Ireland has ever had, Mother Church ranks at the very top, a massive obstacle in the path to equality and freedom. She has been a force for conservatism, not on the basis of preserving Catholic doctrine or preventing the corruption of her children, but simply to ward off threats to her own security and influence.”
—Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)
“Give me your poppies,
let their radiance spill
rapture
for ever;
love me,
O love me.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“My characters never die screaming in rage. They attempt to pull themselves back together and go on. And that’s basically a conservative view of life.”
—Jane Smiley (b. 1949)
