Eitr

Not to be confused with Eitri.

“I am...Eitr. I serve the nothingness and the one who rules it... I was commanded to eliminate you. I was told that...Freyja must not be revived... The Lady of Nightmare cannot live again.”
—Eitr, Nihility & Dream 1

Eitr is a character from Fire Emblem Heroes. She's an unquestioning servant of the ruler of nothingness who lacks the confidence to express her own will.

Profile

Eitr is a vanir goddess who attempts to stop the álfar from reviving Freyja. After she is sent by Ginnungagap only to fail, she decides to aid the álfar to stop the nothingness.

"Just a minute! The following section contains spoilers. Viewing it will cost a lot. Are you prepared to pay for it?"

When Eitr and Plumeria are left together alone, Plumeria chides the girl for her weepy nature. Fed up with her, she decides to impart Eitr with wisdom from Lady Freyja, that crying alone cannot change anything so one must change themselves, the world, or both. While she does not understand the meaning of the phrase, she thanks Plumeria for attempting to cheer her up. She asks Plumeria if she can hug her, stating that she can grant her more power. When they embrace, Plumeria is filled with power similar to when she drank Dream Nectar, granting her an arcane form.

It is revealed that Eitr is actually a younger Freyja, reincarnated by Ginnungagap and wiped of her memories, then creating a dream-eater of Freyja to kill, making the álfar lose all hope and believe that not even Freyja can defeat the nothingness this time.

After Ginnungagap's defeat, at the request of Peony, Freyja recreates Eitr as a separate being from herself in the Dream World so she and the álfar could remain friends.

"End of spoilers. It's a pleasure doing business with you!"

Personality

Eitr is a timid girl who obeys Ginnungagap out of fear. Despite her fears, she desires positive interactions.

Hand of Nothing Eitr
Here's Eitr—a mysterious girl who stood against Peony and Plumeria on the orders of Ginnungagap, who rules the nothingness.
Eitr is a timid and introverted girl. I've heard she suffers from low self-esteem because people used to make fun of her... How cruel.
Ginnungagap robbed Eitr of her memories, so she doesn't really remember her past. I can't say I know any more than she does, but something about her feels familiar somehow.
Maybe that flower she's holding could be a clue—it only grows in Vanaheimr, the realm of light. Just who are you, Eitr?

Spring Sunrise Eitr

Those big, floppy bunny ears lend her look some serious impact. And the light cloth at her waist features a cute polka-dot pattern!
