“	Show everyone the price that is paid for rebelling against Dolhr!	”	— Brzak, to his army

Brzak (Japanese: ブルザーク Brzak) was a Manakete in the service of the Dolhr Empire. He was personally tasked by Emperor Medeus with the job of eliminating Princess Nyna, who had eluded death under the protection of Camus of Grust in Archanea Palace. When Camus, Nyna and three of the Sable Order fled the palace to take Nyna to Aurelis, Brzak led the Dolhr army in pursuit of the group, eventually successfully catching Camus and his knights while Nyna escaped.

Fire Emblem: Archanea Saga

Role

Brzak receives his orders from Medeus himself

Two years since the fall of Palace, out of frustration with Camus's ongoing denial of Medeus's wishes in protecting Princess Nyna, Medeus entrusted Brzak to lead an army to Palace and kill Nyna, ordering him to kill Camus and his men should they resist. Upon being informed of the approach of Brzak's army, Camus and three of the Sable Order took Nyna and fled Palace, intending to entrust Nyna to the protection of Prince Hardin in Aurelis. In response, Brzak commanded his army to give chase to Camus through the mountains to the north, demanding Camus surrender.

In the end, once Nyna safely made it to Aurelis, Camus and his men were captured by Brzak's army. In order to protect his three knights, Camus surrendered and submitted himself to punishment at Brzak's hands. Brzak and his army tortured Camus on the way back to Dolhr, then imprisoned him in Dolhr Keep.

Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem

Role

As in Archanea Saga, two years since the fall of Palace, out of frustration with Camus's ongoing denial of Medeus's wishes in protecting Princess Nyna, Medeus entrusted Brzak to lead an army to Palace and kill Nyna, ordering him to kill Camus and his men should they resist. Upon being informed of the approach of Brzak's army, Camus and three of the Sable Order took Nyna and fled Palace, intending to entrust Nyna to the protection of Prince Hardin in Aurelis. In response, Brzak commanded his army to give chase to Camus through the mountains to the north, demanding Camus surrender.

In the end, Camus and his men killed Brzak, and Nyna safely made it to Aurelis. However, Medeus himself arrived to menace a now exhausted Camus and his three knights, praising Camus for being able to kill Brzak, but taunting him and saying "even you cannot fight bare handed." In order to protect his three knights, Camus surrendered and submitted himself to punishment at Medeus's hands. Medeus and his army tortured Camus on the way back to Dolhr, then imprisoned him in Dolhr Keep.

Personality

Brzak is loyal to Medeus and a commanding presence, devoting himself to the task of capturing Nyna. He was initially weary of Camus betraying Dolhr prior to his leave, and is adaptive to situations such as shifting his forces' course northward to give chase to Camus and later offering payment to bandits should they capture his group once such goes awry. Brzak also indulges in mockery, making Camus's capture a spectacle for his own amusement of seeing a great hero fall and a display to those who rebel against Dolhr.
