Fire Emblem Character Spotlight; Camus
Camus, later known under the aliases Zeke and Sirius, is a character who appears throughout the Archanea Series. He is the leader of the Sable Knights of Grust. His king decides to ally with Dolhr, and despite his sense of honor and integrity, he obeys his country and fights against Marth. He is said to be the most able warrior alive. He is 29 years old according to unused internal data in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.

So, Camoo or Camus? Now that we know the truth behind it, are you going to change the way you say it, or cling to the old name?
Mangs I actually say it the way it was stated to be, Camoo. I just really enjoy the way it sounds...
Camooooo.
Still gonna call him Camus.
There was a Reddit comment made about how it's also the name of a Scottish hero of legend with a story almost identical to FECamus, as opposed to a French philosopher he has basically nothing in common with. I'm sticking with Cam-miss, since ScotCamus is much more likely to be the namesake than FrenchCamus.
Ca-muss, the name is spelled similar to Samus. Also, do Marth spotlight next.
camus as always been is name so i think thats how it should be
**Marth sends Camus flying upon his defeat**
Marth: ...huh. I didn't realize we were operating under Smash physics. But.... I guess this means he's dead...?
**Thousands of miles away, the still-alive Camus crashes into a boat**
"CAMUUH"
"The time has come, awaken my masters!"
*MENACING*
*Cue Arabian Dubstep*
I wasn’t expecting a Jojo fan to be here
That line of Camus saying he has someone else back home always makes me tear up on the inside. A man that only uses his owm loyalty but the same thing betrays him being stuck between two lovers and Nations. Him choosing to stay with Tatiana but go back to Arcanaia shows the true "that zone" that the old games created. He isnt able to choose one sidr and when he tries, it never fully works out.
Damm dude imagine living with the guilt of everything Camus through your entire life. I can't even think of it. Characters like Camus remind me why I love the Fire Emblsm series's story telling.
actually, tatiana says that she found camus washed up on the shores and took care of him. she says this at some point in shadows of valentia, probably in a support conversation. in-game cannon lore saying that camus did in fact wash up on a beach. maybe mila had some plans for him, divine intervetion and dragons.
It was revealed as a memory kinda thing (I haven't played Echoes in awhile, so I don't know the name) (EDIT: Its called Memory Prism) in Mila's Turnwheel.
Blue Fire
A memory prism.
So Mangs. How glad were you that the Feh channel officially pronounced his name as “Camoo” and how much salt residue do you foresee in the near future?
Down here...salt is the way of life.
I mean, as a French, I can't pronounce his name otherwise than in the French way...
The whole future is salt lava!
And how much salt did he have from tharja in warriors?
Man, because of this, and knowing Camus's tragic backstory, he had a hard life on him. Losing Grust, battling in Valentia, a new alias, secret identity. I have to give him respect. Well done, Mangs.
Not sure if this video was made before or after the recent translations of the Valentia Memorial book, but that has some interesting facts pertaining to Camus that are worth noting here as an addendum - notably, that the Gradivus found in Valentia was actually found on Camus' body when he washed up on shore, meaning it's the same one as the one from Archanea, and was returned there by the Whitewings when they went back to Macedon. This means that it's likely canon that the ending of the chapter where Camus is fought in Shadow Dragon is the one where the fort is seized before Camus is defeated, where both Camus and the Gradivus disappear. This would go some way to explaining how he was able to make it all the way to Valentia without dying.
damn this is super cool to know! thanks for sharing this! :D
Then how did he lose his memories, AND wash ashore wounded to the point where Tatiana thought he was dead upon first seeing him(Memory Prism 7, "Drifter From A Distant Land")?
Presumably he fell off a boat. Possibly hit by some sharp pointy object and fell off a boat. It's not like he couldn't have been injured in some other altercation than the battle in Grust.
Then, because he's the goddamn Camus, he survives and recovers and gets a hot green-haired wife.
It's nice to finally get some closure on this character. Glad you took this very Sirus Mangs.
I like all of Camus' variants. The noble but tragic Camus, Solemn and humbled Sirius,and the inbetween,still recovering his lost memories. Zeke.
I would love to see Alm or Soleil next to be a character spotlight in a future!
Meep
The original Xander/Eldigan/Ishtar etc.
whisper... Gaiden did it first, yells BOEYSSSS!
But.... Shadow Dragon did it first. And how did Boey come into this conversation?
Lucky C4t shadow dragon made the archetype first, gaiden made him recruitable first
kaga did it first
The O.G. Archetype of 'My country; right or wrong.'
When you're french yet you always thought it was pronouced 'Camusse' ...
Minor corrections and notes
- Camus has technically been in 7 games, not 6 (Dark Dragon and the Sword of Light, Gaiden, Mystery of the Emblem, Archanea Saga, Shadow Dragon, New Mystery of the Emblem, and Echoes)
- Pretty sure it was Gharnef who brokered the alliance between Grust and Dolhr, not Medeus
- While he's in command of the Millenium Court, he allows Navarre, Lena, Rickard and their allies to go free after they try to ransack the Palace for treasure to buy food for the poor nearby
- He was put on display naked in a cage and dragged about after helping Nyna to escape, or something similar, rather than just being thrown straight in a dungeon - something about showing the people of Archanea what happens to traitors
- I wouldn't say that he's necessarily better in New Mystery than he is in Mystery considering the differences in stats on enemies in the two games, but he's definitely good in both
- One thing to note is that the games themselves imply that Camus is a lot stronger than he typically lets on; I think Medeus himself says that Camus is almost as strong as Anri, a guy who quite literally fought through an army of dragons single-handedly. And as Camus himself remarks, his biggest flaw as a warrior is that his weapons will break - if he could use the Falchion, it's implied that he could have defeated Medeus by himself.
One thing I do like about Camus' character that I think you slightly skimmed over is that his single-minded loyalty and especially his pride as a knight are depicted as his fatal flaws - as Gharnef says of him and Michalis, either of them could have easily been a threat to both Gharnef and Medeus, but they were prevented from doing so because of who they were as people, and Gharnef himself notes that he didn't have to brainwash them to know how to control them. Camus - at least in his Shadow Dragon incarnation - is controlled by Gharnef purely by controlling King Ludwik, and Camus' foolish pride as a knight prevents him from seeing how Gharnef is using him and prevents him from even considering changing side, unlike Ordwin or Cartas (one of the two, can't remember which), whom the game implies he is supposed to be the successor to. But yes, I like his depiction much better than, say, Selena "the Emperor is clearly insane but I'm still robotically powering on; wow what a noble person she is" Fluorspar.
You are right.
"His biggest flaw as a warrior is that his weapons break" bruh then just use Valentian weapons. They never break
+Mangs
I will call Camus Camus, like how you call Caeda Shiida.
Al Shiida
Terra Branwen without h
+Blake Blast
Just saw her supports in warriors and saw that it wasn't a good comparison, but I will keep calling Camus Camus, like how BigMGamer PSH said the official name of FE 7 is Blazing Blade, not Blazing Sword, yet people still call it Blazing Sword.
I love the old school sprite animation with the Gold Knight. It looks so smooth.
Just a small nitpick, but Zeke doesn't come with the Gradivus (at least in Echoes, I don't know about OG Gaiden). You have to obtain it from Duma temple at the end of the game.
Jakkun gradivus can be made from blessed lance though
When Mangs is storytelling I feel like a little kid
PAPA EGGMAN IS GONNA TELL YOU A STORY.
There was no boat, he got washed up with Gradivus. According to that new Valentia Book that got released recently.
Also, in FE 3 you need 3 more points to double, NOT 4
There HAS to have been a boat involved. If you take a look at the world map, Valentia is west of Archaneia, and Rigel again is on the west side of the Valentinan continent. For Camus to somehow drift ashore in Rigel without a vessel, he would have to traverse a distance by sea equal to the length of the Archanean continent, that’s freaking impossible, even for Camus. My guess is that he got on a ship that sailed around Valentia, and either capsized or got attacked by bandits, and then washed ashore. The head injury might have stemmed from a battle on the boat he was on.
Regardless of what happened, unless magic was involved, there’s no freaking way he “washed ashore” in Rigel without the assistance of a ship.
Mangs magic was involved, you can use Gradivus to heal.
Nikita Krivko
He can't have washed up with the Gradivus, because he drops it when you defeat him.
flipples nipples it is not canon.
+Mangs
The original Gaiden states that Valentia was actually a remote island, not a continent. Now it's just confusing. Maybe one could say that magic is involved. Or maybe Camus is very lucky. Or perhaps one could say that destiny played their hand and that because Camus was destined to return to Archanea, destiny made it that Camus survives without a boat.
This took a month because he was repronouncing everything
Hey fellas, if Camus is pronounced Camoo, is Sirius pronounced Sirioo?
coonrat1 What about the Gradivus? Or should I say Gradivoo?
If Camus is Camoo, then is Samus Samoo?
gradivus is also latin and pronounced like mangs did, grah-dee-voos
Gradivus is Latin... So it would be pronounced GradiWUS... (Also Caesar would be pronounced as Kai-sar...
oh is that why Emperor in german is Kaiser?
1:20 It's actually Thar-Jah.
I thought FE warriors called her Thar-Ja?
Actually in Fire Emblem Warriors she is indeed called Thar-Jah.
He doesn't pronouce Camus correctly either but fuck it tbh.
Didn't Mangs respond? Did he delete his response?
I know that pronunciation is used in FE Warriors, but it's still false. Her Japanese name uses a "y" sound for the "ja" section of her name.
There's one bit of trivia that you seemed to have missed! The Valentian Accordion artbook has a timeline that implies that Sirius got his mask from Conrad!
I would like a Spotlight for Owain/Odin. In my opinion he's the most interesting from the Awakening trio. Also his relationship with his daughter is great, and I feel he's one of the only two good parents in Fates (alongside Laslow).
I really really really like this series!
Keep doing the good work Mangs!
And um,I would love if you’d do Lilina or Eirika please. ^^
If you can of course.
That awkward moment when you create your own archetype, only to get thrown out of it in your next game.
What a nice video about one of my favorite characters, but I think that you forgot to mention two things I consider important about "CAMOOO" haha:
First: In Shadows of Valentia there is a conversation with Zeke (from the ones you get at the entrance of a town or in Mila's statues) where he says that he doesn't knows from were he comes, people believes that he comes from the Archanean continent but he isn't sure about that since every time he tries to remember his head aches like if his lost memories were something umpleasant, except for one intact memory he has, but he won't talk about it since it would hurt Tatiana's feelings (This implies that he still remembers Nyna despite his amnesia).
Second: Camus was the first character to set not one but two kind of character archetypes. The first one was the "Tragic enemy" archetype you mentioned in the video and that was reused by Eldigan, Selena, Bryce, Xander, etc., and the second and much less used one was the one I like to call the "Identity complex" or the "Reused character that shouldn't be here" archetype, this one refers to characters that reappear in later games but under a different identity for their own reasons (like amnesia or something), they also often appear under circumstances were they technically should't appear anymore but they're there anyway, the only times this archetype was used aside from Camus was with Bridget/Eyvel from Holy War/Thracia 776, Devdan/Danved from Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn, and the most famous one: Owain, Inigo and Severa from Awakening/Fates, so Fates wasn't the first one to reuse old characters, GAIDEN DID IT FIRST!!!
(Sorry for the long comment).
Oh god, this means that Nyna's dead by Gaiden.
In echoes, when Zeke dies, he says "Ah..I know your face...ah it's you...."
This is referring to Nyna.
Moomy Woomy Gaiden happens before FE3/12
It just means that his memories have returned as he's dying
Yesssss
Dreams do come true
Daddy Camus finally got a spotlight
i made zeke a bow knight
i am bloody stupid
DerpFace92 I made Sirius a Swordmaster
Am I smart or stupid?
Lobster Lord are you Sirius?
Looking at Camus, I cant help but think
“How much mass did he lose when he became Zeke?”
Btw, Zeke is my favourite version of Camus and one of my best units in Echoes
ARE YOU SERIOUS? This whole time? I was using camus? In echoes? OMG THATS AWESOME!!!!
My favorite Fe character finally gets a spotlight! I love how you said he was "the knight of fire emblem". Can you do Marty from Thracia 776 sometime?
Oh yeah now were talking... Also I'm forever calling his name Ca-muss.
Camoose
Man, Camus really threw himself from a war, to a continent threatening quest, and right back into war. Dude really has no chill.
Fun fact. It was Conrad's mask that Camus wore. He borrowed it from him
Reminder that Feh and co. have a history of mispronouncing names (Sharena and Lyon spring to mind) but hey I can live with Camuu being the default pronunciation -totally not bitter what are you talking about-
Although you should go the whole way and call him Camuu the Sah-bleu if you really want to be consistent...
Wait, how did Get pronounce their names then?
Sacre bleu!
BMB
Sharena is a FEH original character. How can you claim that her name is mispronounced? And it's not like the player is stopped from pronouncing it however they want anyway.
If I'm not mistaken, I recall Sharena's name being pronounced as "Shar-ee-na" and "Shar-ay-na" in different Directs. Similarly, Lyon's name being pronounced differently by different characters.
None of the pronunciations are necessarily "wrong" of course but there is certainly inconsistency.
Shah-reyna and Lie-on for me.
Could you do Ninian or Nils or both ? (Since they are siblings and basically the same unit) I think that’d be so cool. Love your videos!
I can't wait when Mangs does an Anna Character Spotlight.
Huh, I thought you already made a Xander spotlight.
I lifted my DnD character's name from Camus, pronounced the old way (ca-mus), because I took German and Russian influences for his country of origin. Maybe I'll start calling the Fire Emblem character "ca-moo" to differentiate the two, but it will certainly be difficult to break the old habit.
Thank you for this video, Magnuuuu.
Thank you for making this video!! As a fire emblem newcomer, ( first game was fates ) I have always wondered about zeke and his backstory. I love him even more now!!
19:42 or just use gordin ;)
A Boy A true 5 points/5 points unit, I must say.
The Lonley Smash Bros Player *you're
You're bad at grammar
FIVE POINTS
GORDIN SPOTLIGHT WHEN
BUT MARSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Says Camus correctly, still pronounces Tharja wrong. Classic Mangs.
The Fire Emblem's Char Clone. What a great character!
MMMMBBBBANNNNGGSSSS HOW DARE YOU SAY CAMOO.
lol jk, glad that we got the pronunciation is cleared up :)
Great video. You should do someone from the Radiant series like Titania or any of the other Greil Mercenaries for your next Character Spotlight.
The way Feh pronounced Camus' name was still not the French way.
The letter u in French usually make the [y] sound (which is very unique to French, common words using it is "tu", "rue", "nue", etc.), but most Anglophones pronounce it as the [u] sound (the sound you hear in "Moo").
Camus' name shouldn't sound like Camoo, it should sound like Cam-[y], a much deeper sound which makes him sound more badass than Mr. Cow Man.
Every time someone falls in battle and loses their memory , it is by the hand of a lovely maiden that they are nursed back to health. In turn, the lovely creature can't help but fall in love with their patient. Someone. Please. Hit me. In the head.
This review may be long but I love it. Keep doing more of it and be proud of your work Mangs. :)
Omg I’ve been waiting for more of these!!! Maybe Olivia or Azura or any other dance!!!!
The FE Echoes artbook, Valentia Accordian, confirmed that Camus got his mask from Conrad when he left Valentia
I gotta say, this video has made REALLY like Camus/Zeke/Sirius; I can't wait to get to him in OG Shadow Dragon and get my hands on the other games he's in- ...He has no supports with Marth??? What kind of bullshit-
"Camus appeard in *6 games* 3 times as a boss *and 3 times as an ally* "
To this day, my girlfriend refuses to believe that Zeke, Sirius and Camooo are the same person. 😞😞
Camus is not really pronounced "CaMoo", the French sound "U" does not really exist in English, so most of the time English speakers can not pronounce it. the opposite also exists, the sound "th" is very difficult to pronounce by a non-English speaking, for example.
Signed: A French guy who does not speak very well english and who continues to laugh at the bad pronunciation of English speakers
I always complain about this. It's more similar to a Spanish "uh" than the English "oo" sound.
That they sound similar doesn't mean they sound the same.
is it closer to camyew?
im acadian and that's how we pronounce it here
Isn't more like the sound you make when your lips are shaped like an "oh" sound but your voice says "ee"? Or is that still wrong?
@@sunmarie9070 Google trad says the name pretty correctly, even in english, so check it directly.
Camus is always coming up with new surprises every time.
He makes a CAMeo in echoes
boo
Man, this video makes me proud to have him as a favorite in the series
Camoooooooooiiii
Camus is one of the most powerful warriors in Fire Emblem. I actually did a little thread about his feats and accomplishments, like how when helping Nyna escape, at the end, he gets praised two ways. If Bulzark is alive, Camus wiped out an entire battalion singlehandedly. If Bulzark is dead, Medeus praises Camus for wiping the entire battalion and also defeating Bulzark, even getting compared to Anri.
Camus is one of the characters that I would say is actually just as strong as Greil in his prime and an Endgame Ike that reached Greil's prime's level. I would love to see Camus and Ike going at it. Or better yet, going against the Black Knight.
The original Fire Emblem Black Knight versus the first known Black Knight for the western audience.
Still can't pronounce tharja right...
DONT PLAY BOYZ Play fire emblem warriors they say her name repeatedly
I'm just gonna call him A Char
I can't believe you called Camus a plot device.
Yeah. How is Camus a plot device?
Camus is the blood pact.
Mango, you Mangsmathed again, Camus is a boss in 3 games (1, 3, 11) and playable in 4 (2, 3, 12, 15)
Just a slip of the tongue in your case, but nonetheless, it's an easy slip up to punish. Time to reset
Absolutely awesome video, great job! I would thoroughly enjoy it if you did a video like this on the Black Knight/Zelgius, such an interesting character and fairly similar to Camus.
Daddy caMoo
I got it to 69 likes.
HEHEHEH.
I would like to learn more about Owain/Odin... could that be arranged? :)
Je Suis Camus!
Dude when I saw Zeke I was like:
Is this Camus? Or not? Who are you?
And now I watch this and... WOW
There's a theory that Sirius recieved his mask from Conrad, who didn't need his mask anymore. Though this is probably just coincidence as Conrad only exists in Echoes.
Nice job again with this video! If you don't mind, can you make a character spotlight for Alm? I think he's a great character with a good amount of depth, plus I'm curious about the comparison to his original Gaiden counterpart.
Eyy, one of the best "villains" in the series and my go to lance user in heroes.
kinda wish you talked about a few of his feats, and im pretty sure there was no boat involved when he got to valentia. great video tho me likey
Considering the fact that it's mentioned only in the ending quote Zeke gets if Tatiana dies that he was seen in Akaneia, it seems to be the case that Tatiana dies canonically.
If The *"CANON"* Pronunciation Is *"CAMOO..."* Y Is It Spelled *"CAMUS?"* Same With Tharja, It's Spelled *"THARJA"* But It's Officially Pronunced *"THARIA"... Y?!?* What's The Point Of Spelling Some Words/Names If Their Pronunciations Completly Contredicts The Spelling Of Said Word/Name, Seriously, *WHO MAKES SOME OF THESE PRONUNCIATIONS/SPELLINGS?!?*
I swear silent letters will never make sense
@@veo1053 *IKR?!*
Please do Seliph and make a joke about how he looks like Marth.
You forgot he was in Fire Emblem Fates. :)
Also, no. I refuse to call him Camoo, I'm calling him Camus. It's like calling Rhajat "Raw-yat" or calling Grust "Groot." Actually no, scratch that the last one stays.
TZA5450 *I AM GROOT*
I am Grust
I cant wait for his ghb revival to finally have him in heroes 😍
Camus character spotlight but every time mangs says his name I die inside
Regardless of what name you call him, one thing is clear. He's a great character.
It's Thar-ja, warriors confirms this. Or is it you just want to use what's most comfortable
Theory for gaiden stats: zeke was holding back, focusing on living (hp up, all else down) and when he joins, well he doesn't need to hold back now does he?
I really like how he stayed loyal to Titiana, just nice seeing the little connections between the continents here and there
The only real competition Zeke has in echoes is Mathilda, and he’ll usually end up tankier than her, similar attack, and only slightly less speed. The only huge advantage she has is her res, which is higher than most units in the game anyway. I just use them both, since having a lot of one weapon won’t be as bad in echoes as it will in other games.
Mathilda joins way earlier though.
And she has tits.
The more the merrier though. 2 gold knights > 1 gold knight
We need a moulder character spotlight
Nice Xander spotlight
The Legend of Nyna, Camus Awakening for GB and GBC
And thus, a new husbando is born.
At least it's not pronounced camoose
Camus is like a stick of butter. Marth’s Army is like a water solution. Marth is like the water, Gordon like the salt, cards like the sugar, he whitewings like the food coloring. All dissolve in water. But when you get to the stick of butter, it does not dissolve because butter is nonpolar and cannot betray its motherland, the land of grease.
I think Scarlet is in desperate need of more love. I would love to see a spotlight of her!
So ENTERTAINING to see! One recommendation i have would be Marth himself
Spotlight Anna would sound nice
2:51 you forgot Thomas the archer
Benny, my beautiful husbando from fates ( Conquest AND Revelations)
Great video Mangs! Also,Owain/Odin when?
Still waiting for the Ninian character analysis by Mangs like a trading feature in Heroes. Lol
Awesome Job regardless Mangs. :3
Can you PLEASE do Nergal at some point?
Nergal was the best. If you're obsessive about it, you can find his entire backstory. Basically, he fell in love with a manakete, and his children are actually Ninian and Nils, thus why they answer his call. they are connected to him via familial bond. His wife get kidnapped and assumed to be dead, so he leaves Ninian and Nils at home (on of the sidequest ruins im pretty sure.) and goes after her to rescue her. However, he relized he wasn't powerful enough, so he sought power via the dark arts. Canas explains that true mastery of dark magic requires you to basically give up your soul, memories, and everything you hold dear, and give in entirely to the magic. Thus, he forgets about his wife, and his kids ( though he subconsciously remembers them, he wants to summon dragons, and he goes after Ninian and Nils) but still remembers his quest for power. when you kill him after completeing chapter 19xx you get this (from serenseforest.net)
“Why? Why must I lose? More power… I must be… stronger… I… Why? Why did I… want power? ……Quintessence? …Don’t…under…stand… but… Gaa… Not like this… I will not die…like this. With my last breath… tremble…and…despair. Hwah ha ha… Ha…ha ha ha…”
He has forgotten why he wanted the power, because he wanted to bring back his wife and reunite his family.... honestly one of the most tragic villains, and the reason FE7 is the best, at least for the writing.
