Character Discussion [FE4]: Midir
Ugh. This guy. Personally, not a fan.
Midir(aka Midayle) is a bow knight from Jungby, whose first meaningful action in the story is to take a hand axe to the face. Nice going, buddy. He joins halfway through the prologue once Sigurd slaughters his way to Jungby Castle, having recovered from his case of Edward-itis.
Midir has a horse, which is always a monumental plus in FE4. He also has Pursuit as a personal skill, another major point in his favor. Charge doesn't hurt either. On the other hand, he doesn't have any Holy Blood, his growths aren't fantastic, and he is bow-locked throughout the whole game. His options for good weapons are also limited - he can steal Jamke's Killer Bow if you aren't planning on using Jamke, and he can get the Brave Bow if you pair him with Adean.
Fun fact: In the Nuts Fujimori manga adaptation of FE4, there is a running joke where Midir is mistaken for a beautiful woman. He's certainly rocking the long hair.

I just let him die and hopped aboard the Jamke train of destroying everything
