Alva (アルバ Aruba, Alba in some of the fan translation) is a playable character in Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. He is a twenty-year old knight of Leonster, and is best friends with Cain. As with Robert and Cain, he has no speaking lines in the game, but he is described as a bright and cheerful character according to his description on the official website of Thracia 776 [1], and in contrast to his friend Cain, who is more brooding and taciturn. This is supported by his ending, which states that when he went to Southern Thracia to restore public order, he eventually won over the people there, who had initially viewed him with distrust, by his good-will and affability.
