==Story==
 
==Story==
 +
At the beginning of the game, the player (represented by an avatar character) is fighting alongside a man named {{few|Chrom}} against {{few|Validar|a mysterious enemy}}. However, after he is defeated the avatar stabs and kills Chrom.
 +
 +
The avatar then wakes up in a field, having been found by Chrom and members of his army, the {{few|Shepherds (group)|Shepherds}}. When they introduce themselves, the avatar shows no memory of their past. However, they and the Shepherds help save a nearby town from bandits from the nation of {{few|Plegia}}. As the group travels from the town, they encounter another threat arrives in the form of {{few|Risen|undead soldiers}}. However, as they are fighting, a masked warrior going by the name "{{few|Lucina|Marth}}" arrives to assist them, but takes off immediately afterward. The group must now work to fight off both the undead warriors and attackers from Plegia.

==Gameplay==
 
==Gameplay==
 +
The gameplay of ''Fire Emblem Awakening'' is similar to past installments, but takes many features from past installments while also introducing new gameplay features to facilitate new players. Returning from the previous game is the addition of a customizable avatar unit. Also returning is the ability to select from one of two modes of play (separate from the difficulty settings): "Classic Mode", the traditional ''Fire Emblem'' gameplay, or "Casual Mode", in which units that are defeated do not permanently die and are instead unable to be used for the remainder of the battle.
 +
 +
During battle, the player must strategically move their units across the grid-based map to defeat the enemy. However, if either the avatar or Chrom are defeated, then the player automatically receives a game over. Units can either move on their own, or the player can team them up using "{{few|Pair Up}}", an expansion upon the support mechanics in previous games in which one unit joins with another and moves as a single unit. The secondary unit supports the main one by giving them stat boosts during enemy encounters, and may occasionally "Dual Strike", attacking alongside them, or "Dual Guard", which blocks an oncoming attack. This also serves to raise the units' support level.
 +
 +
''Fire Emblem Awakening'' uses a stage-based structure and features a world map that can be traveled across between missions. From here, the player can purchase or sell items at shops, and play extra, non-essential "Paralogue" missions. Shopkeepers may also appear, which have rarer and more valuable items than the normal shops, and Risen may also appear for the player to battle in {{few|Skirmish|Challenge}} missions. Through [[StreetPass]], another player's team will appear on the map, and through here the player can purchase items they have, view their stats, battle the team, recruit the leader, or dismiss them. From the menu, the player can access the {{few|Barracks}}, in which players can view conversations between units (which happen based on the system's internal clock) and can give them random rewards, download bonus content using the system's wireless features, set up a StreetPass team, and engage in {{few|Double Duel}}, in which two players team up to fight computer opponents.

At the beginning of the game, the player (represented by an avatar character) is fighting alongside a man named Chrom against a mysterious enemy. However, after he is defeated the avatar stabs and kills Chrom.

The avatar then wakes up in a field, having been found by Chrom and members of his army, the Shepherds. When they introduce themselves, the avatar shows no memory of their past. However, they and the Shepherds help save a nearby town from bandits from the nation of Plegia. As the group travels from the town, they encounter another threat arrives in the form of undead soldiers. However, as they are fighting, a masked warrior going by the name "Marth" arrives to assist them, but takes off immediately afterward. The group must now work to fight off both the undead warriors and attackers from Plegia.
