Gatekeeper (Fire Emblem)

The Gatekeeper (Japanese: 門番, Hepburn: Monban) is a character in the 2019 video game Fire Emblem: Three Houses. He is a background character who serves as the gatekeeper of Garreg Mach, typically greeting the protagonist, Byleth, by telling them there is nothing to report. Despite his minor role in the story and generic nature, the Gatekeeper became a popular character, eventually being voted #1 in a "Choose Your Legends" poll for Fire Emblem Heroes among male characters, and was subsequently added into the game as a playable character.
