Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn --- The Strong

[TheMrHurka]

This should be techno remixed!



[JDWtri]

Go back and play por Zelgius is introduced immediately after fighting the black knight... he fled like ten feet.

[14bj337]

And the winner of the competition for best personal battle music... why, it's a tie! Zelgius and the Black Knight both win!

[2345Disciple]

The way the music perfectly times Zelgius's sword swing (His intro animation) with the song is simply epic. you just FEEL the power of the General of Begnion.

[AlainRacette1986]

When hearing this theme, you just KNOW shit's gonna get real.

[omega197]

zelgius is truly strong. but still wondering why he was slow at animation wise... i mean his armor not that weight.

[gamefreakY]

@omega197 probably a reference and indication that he is, in fact, the black knight, since they have the same animations.

[PaperShishigami]

@omega197 Think about it...he fights just like his alter ego, the Black Knight. It's supposed to cement the possibility in the player's mind that they're the same person.

[Hemlocke3]

Me fighting him *Alondite* at a friends place with IKE *Ragnall*

Theme comes on

I get not 1 attack and he Astra's....HE is epicly Overpowered in or out of the Chaos Armour

[theTALESHUNTER]

I'm a little slow, but what's this about burger king?

[Shradow115]

@theTALESHUNTER Zelgius = Black Knight = BK = Burger King

Just a fan name.

[theTALESHUNTER]

@Shradow115 lol, I see. Thanks.

[ArmedJam0414]

@theTALESHUNTER It's just a joke.

*SPOILER ALERT* Zelgius is the black knight, which is punctuated as BK. BK is also the punctuated for Burger King, thus the joke of the Black Knight being also the Burger King.

[96Thompson]

Zelguis is my favorite FM character, out of all of them, and nice music too

[xxNight0Rainxx]

Big ass armour for a teeny tiny head. :)

[Abaddon41K]

he would make an excellent brawl character not trying to be that guy that always brings up brawl but ive always thought that

[AxelDarkHero2]

That theme is a little better as the from BK i find.

Best Boss Music!

[Luna874]

*Zelgius Gets A Crit + Eclipse against Skimir*

Skimir: Ranulf, Kill him for me

Ranulf: Can't

Skimir: What? Why?

Ranulf: I tried...

*Flashback to PoR where BK kicks his ass untill sephiran stopped it*

[younglinkx1]

The new final destanation theme fer SSBB!

[riden1234567]

zelgius, what can i say hes bad ass yet polite, hes a bad guy yet he is honerable

all i can say is BEAST VIDEO GAME VILLAN EVER

[Silver1414]

@riden1234567 I wouldn't call him a straight-up villain, at least not in RD. He became more of an anti-hero. At least his intentions were good.

[Beneo42]

0 people's father was murdered by zelgius

[sirmackslot]

@Beneo42 the first person to hit the dislike button can claim to be Ike because of your comment

[Beneo42]

@sirmackslot ROFL! I hadn't noticed that.

[MajorasMask219]

i trust you know who you face, Zelgius, the baddest badass ever. if you're not worthy of fighting me, then get the hell outta my sight!

[ThisGirlisColdHearte]

No idea why this isn't Ike's theme. No ideaaaa.

[clankb2o5]

what does wheeling mean? google translate says something about cycling so im desperate..

[FriendlyFireFox]

I don't know about you, but imagine Hector in a red armor.

Now look back at Zelgius.

...That explains it.

[Kholdstarezero]

Why does such an incredible song only play once for like 5 seconds as Skrimir gets knocked down a notch?

[younglinkx1]

@Kholdstarezero i know right? very saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad :( but thats y we have youtube :D

[TheoneandonlyBobb]

@Kholdstarezero It play twice, first time Ranulf vs Zelgius and second time Skrimir vs Zelgius.

[markkleinmaximo]

buenisimo ;)

[PrinceKilvas]

When this theme plays, you know serious shit's about to go down XD

[WolfSyn]

Is it just me or is this even better than the Black Knight's battle theme. Unstoppable Destiny is all, "Oh look at me, I'm unstoppable and awesome", but this just suits the most epic battle you can possibly imagine.

[14bj337]

Ranulf: I'm the future king's cousin's sister's ex-husband's former roommate!

Zelgius: Yeah? Well I'm the Black Knight.

(Pøwnage ensues)

[LordofDragns]

@14bj337 Shoulda said "Im the Goddamn Batman."

[rabidtangerine]

@14bj337 Cousin's sister = cousin.

[Luna874]

obviously, the more badass the characters theme is: the stronger they are (only talking about bosses)

[marthedge]

@Luna874

pfffft, but we all know Oliver is too beautiful to need a badass theme

[Luna874]

@marthedge

you are right, too bad he is outclassed by micaiah, rhys and laura.

[Estheriam]

All who hear this song is doomed to die by Zel-

Zelgius: Hahahaha! You are no match for my awesome theme and my sword!

Skirmir: FUCK! He's right!

[DragaodeFogo]

Zelgius rocks! He is the kind of leader everone likes(besides Ike of course)

[xCorruptedAngelx]

I like Zelgius and I like him as the Black Knight. So take that. >_>

[AxelDarkHero2]

that song is better then from the black knight find i

[Blacknight9090]

I prefer the black knight because hes invicable in that armor but is vunerable as zelgius in battle.

[Kyoshiro973]

in radiant dawn he is no longer invincible

[DragonMaster459]

black knight>Zelgius

[tpchikki15]

I love this song almost as much as I love the Devoted. But I don't think it suits Zelgius, he always seemes to be really calm and collected. But facing an epic guy deserves an epic song.

[DragonMaster459]

this IS epic

[tpchikki15]

That's what I was saying, this song is epic and so is Zelgius. D:

[RandomQuestions]

This should've played when fighting him. Not only is this cooler than his other battle theme, IMO, but he's fought after revealing himself. Not only that, the only time it's ever played is when he defeats Skrimir, so listening to it outside of that can only be done in Sound Test. Plus, Levail, a lower ranked Begnion general, is aiding him and the theme this is based on plays before the battle.

Lastly, as a character, I liked Zelgius more as a Begnion general than the Black Knight.

[DragonMaster459]

BK OWNS ALL (not burger king, Black Knight)

[Shadowelf93]

Burger King owns, too XD

[Benjaminy2k]

At Black Knight, you can have it your way. THE Black Knight, o the other hand, has it HIS way.

[Benjaminy2k]

on the other hand, it's poor form to change your leitmotif.

[uniquesheikfreak]

Have at me, and know your folly.

[Disciple234]

Zelgius is all the more better because of his slow, dramatic walk. It gives you the feeling;

Oh ****, I'm going to die 'cause of this guy.

[LunarEcli]

@Disciple234

exactly. Just imagine him walking towards you with alondite and that clunking noise his armour makes. D:

[Loyal2NES]

All that armor must've been murder to put on and take off so often.

[SirVyre]

He just leaves it on.

[hawkeye611]

Nah. He has to switch to his "second set" of armour constantly.

[ChaosDeathReaper]

btw you can tell zelgius is not a marshall, even though he has luna, it dont mean hes a marshall. if he were hed be much easier to kill

[flamingragnell]

if u beat radiant dawn on normal, be very patient at watching unit profiles, mabe around the 4th or 5th time, after taroneo's marshall data, ull see Zelgius's data as a marshall

[hjt091]

He is a marshall, but he has different stats to them

In the class roll it says'Marshall (Zelgius)'

[ChaosDeathReaper]

What honor, died because he killed Ike's Father. Makes you realise that a person's honor is more important than his life. Zelgius proved that. Dont hide behind people like a coward, diont give up on your honor, fight for it.

[BladeofLegend]

True, I was thinking the exact same thing. If he didn't kill Greil, he wouldn't have ever died. Instead, he could have possibly join Ike's side like Lehran at the very last second. Or if he never killed Greil, Ike wouldn't be part of the war and thus meaning Sephiran would win. But there is a possiblity Greil will take Ike's place as Hero (and maybe die along the way and Ike will take over...) Well, so many possiblilites....It just had to be this one....sadly.

[flamingragnell]

I LOVE this song!!!

[Croxyndul]

why's it in every fe game the cool characters always die, it's annoying one day im watching zelgius in action the next day im fighting him to the death, same with dehginsea.

[turdulator]

He's actually a Marshal.

[thedude02760]

best song in all the games! i luv it

[Windaquer]

Zelgius, the only Fire Emblem character to get two exclusive badass themes. We salute you Burger King!

[Shradow115]

@Windaquer Actually, he gets 4.

!SPOILER!

Zelguis the Brave

The Strong

The Black Knight Lives

Unstoppable Destiny

[DracoFlame67]

@Windaquer What about the Black Knight?

I know what I'm getting myself into when I type this.

[marthedge]

@DracoFlame67

Zelgius is the Black Knight

Boo-hoo, spoilers

[SeraphimSwordmaster]

@Windaquer Zelgius' Burger King gives you Lion Burgers. None of that beef crap here.

[LULTHREAT]

This song screams A LION IS ABOUT TO GET MASSACRED

[ca5197]

he never killed the lion though

[Aetherius74]

its a silver sword i think

[ryan5772]

Silver Blade actually.

[LuciferFlames]

Sorry to say this, but I liked when Zelgius kicked the BIg Kitty's ass for good LOL. He was extremely stubborn and stupidly full of pride: the lesson served him well, didn't it? xD

Pity you couldn't use Zelgius in neither of the two games

[LegendaryPhantomX]

They should have made him a secret character or unlockable after beating the game a certain number of times.

[LuciferFlames]

Agree with that, as they did with Ashnard in PoR

[ca5197]

i agree

[LuciferFlames]

in fact, who doesn't? xDDDDDD

[shadow4112]

thats not the alondite he only uses alondite on BK form to hide it or something but alondite looks different. thats the sword the senate made him. that and hes on steroids. DAMN THOSE SENATE BASTERDS they make lotsa cool items that i want!! i want an elsleep!

[vattenpuss]

dont forget the rewarp >=D

[shadow4112]

rewarp is for pussies. but i want one for the hell of it. izuka tele whenever he almost die and summons him laguz bitches xD he was evil.

[vattenpuss]

and that's simply y u want 1 =D

[shadow4112]

if i get my hand on 1 ima haxx it and make it cool xD

[MidnightsWrath]

Tibarn FTW. =DDDDD

[PlazmaZ5]

your right the alondite has a diamond shape at the end of the blade

[treydawson12]

fire emblem games rule. i guess thats why he didnt join my army in path of raidance. he was the black knight. im so excited to play the new game now.

[Gaaralver2damax]

Zelgius no Okami >=0 All hail thou!!!

[vitamateshot96]

I can't believe he is the Black Knight

[reiuss23]

I'm thinking his sword is just a big silver/steel sword. :| Nothing special or enchanted.

[cigz321]

yeah the alondite looks different

[Gaaralver2damax]

thats because it's not Alondite lol. I thought it was too but I looked closer and it's just a sword the senate gave him i guess.

[ca5197]

no ashnard gave it to him when he was part of the army of diaen

[topownedbutgf]

lol took me a couple of times to play the game to realize he actually was the real black knight i thought he just dressed up as him lol i never played the other 1 soz i thought it was this 1 guy cuz it looked like it was him cuz on his shoulders it looked like he had black armor on :o

[LivingFireShadow]

Well i allready had a feeling that he was the Black Knight, because whenn i saw him fighting Ranulf or Skrimir i saw that his fighting style was very similair to that from the Black Knight.

[dryxix]

This song is dictator-ish, but it's great!

[dryxix]

Never thought that he was the black knight it blew me away.

[Yoshikid46]

all the people are saying zelgius is wearing a steel sword ...

its a fucking steel blade he's wearing

[dudedude301]

Actually I think that sword is the ettard...

This picture is form path of radiance.

[Yoshikid46]

you should look at a picture of the black knight now.

the sword handle is different than ettard/alondite, i quess zelgius is wearing a silver blade, not a steel one if i look closer

[RunescapeAa850]

How do you "wear" a sword? You can hold one and weild one but idk how u can wear one.

[KingKamor2]

In a sheathe on your waist or on your back. Duh. XD

[superata]

Touché!

[oowp]

There aren't enough broad shouldered-buff-hott guys in the series like Zelgius. xD

[mortonandroy]

How the hell is it possible to critical with a bronze sword?

That Zelgius... He's strong enough to take on Ashera on his own.

Dheg? No.

[goldieX39]

It's actually a steel sword, well that's what he was holding when I got his data..

[OgnarPliskin]

Not even close. Ike can take the Black Knight on by himself, but Ashera would have ripped him a new one had he not been fighting together with his friends.

[supergum1295]

a lv. 20 vanguard Ike can totally deal 15+ DOUBLE STRIKES to the RD Black Knight even WITH Alondite.

[OgnarPliskin]

I'd rather just use the Hammer...

[ca5197]

but he cant use axes

[DragonTrainer0510]

Yeah, Zelgius was just the coolest, to bad this song could only be heard twice in the game, and that Zelgius wasn`t a chapter boss.

[MajorArmstrong]

Technically, he is

[Tykaix]

if u see him battle someone with an actual hp then it would be a chapter boss. battling the BK wouldnt qualify as a zelgius battle. (IN MY OPINION)

[ca5197]

technically since hes the black knight he is cuz ike fights him in the tower

[SupprSmashBrosGirl]

Skrimir was the weakest out of all Lions, thats why he lost his match. Therefore, having the disadvantage of doing any damage to Zelgius. But too bad you couldn't actually face Zelgius, well, besides him being the Black Night.

You only get to here his music once in the whole game.

[KAsevenfive]

Well twice, you forgot Ranulf :P

[50diddykanye]

yeah he should have uses- wait, bronze is the worst so... dang he's a beast i swear.

[Kyoshiro973]

One of the best battle theme I've ever heard. Last week I just noticed that Zelgius was using a bronze sword in his fight against Skrimir ^^

[MrRaui]

Well he only wanted to severely injure Skirmir to make the Laguz Alliance doubt their ability and such. And it worked

[Marth1993]

I still think a bronze sword was overkill, cuz I distinctly remember him activating eclipse...

[MrRaui]

Well theres nothing else he could have used. The bronze sword has the lowest MT in radiant dawn IIRC

[Marth1993]

Well it could have been a forged iron sword with its MT turned all the way down...

[doomdragon83]

Marth1993, he didn't do Eclipse, it was just a critical hit.

[ca5197]

it must of worked since they fled

[MrRaui]

When the black knight becomes Zelgius where does he store Aldonite and that black armor?

[Tykaix]

Its Alondite. and i dont know.

[LuciferFlames]

He can warp, so maybe he just use it to go wherever he hides Alondite and the armor, and then goes to kick Ike's ass for good xD

[ca5197]

but hows he able to warp

[valiantvyse]

He mentions in Path of Radiance that he uses a very rare and expensive substance called warp powder.

[ca5197]

at his house im assuming

[vitamateshot96]

zalguis is the black knight

[snotrocket52]

zelgius

[phantomDARKNIGHT]

this song is a fire emblem masterpiece

[Naturei]

This has to be the best battle theme in FE RD... In my opinion. <3

[Edingue]

Too bad you hear that like only once... or twice? I don't really know...

This is kinda weird it's a long music but in the game it lasts like 20 seconds, why bother?

This should have been a new ennemy battle theme, 'cuz this is awesome :D

[Naturei]

I totally agree with everything you just said. 8D

[ca5197]

i also agree with everything u just said

[LordIke27]

i recently found out that zelgius is mentioned in PoR, and compared to radiant dawn, they actually look almost identical.

[jadewyvernknight]

I thought he was Ike`s Long distant older bro

or his uncle when I saw him on PoR.They both

Own anything that attacks them.

[ca5197]

thats because there both strong as hell

[lordlotor]

I wish they used this song for his final battle against Ike

[LordIke27]

Go zelgius/ Black knight! they both own massively no matter what

[pikinator]

its so long because once you beat the game one time you unlokcm ost of the music and his theme is in there

[bradchats]

Question why is this a 1 minute long battle sequence when the longest you see him fight is about 20 seconds??

[TheChampOfPokemon]

Too bad Zelgius dies (can you unlock him someone please tell me)

[Ruro00]

Zelgius is the best, I wish he was more of a villian instead of just a mere puppet. D:

[hotchink56]

He's not just a puppet, I think Sephiran actually cares about him. Because...

SPOILERS DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT GONE UP TO Rebirth (5)

The last thing Sephiran says before he dies is "Thank you... I...will be leaving you now. Zel...gius...is waiting." He mentioned Zelgius, so... o_o

[BulzeebBlackBreath]

Zelgius, err the Black Knight is awesome.

[Isendir123]

rofl

Well.. Hes a Sword armored knight hence the speed

[ca5197]

hes quicker than most sword knights

hell hes quicker than most marshalls

[reiuss23]

The black knight/zelgius? He's quicker than most trueblades ;;>>

[KefkaTriad]

Have you seen how slow Zelgius is in the game?? This should be titled "Zelgius Walks"

[mannimarco3]

More like Zelgius Tip-toes :P

[Epona5]

"What happens if he trips?"

My brother said that. XD

...eh, yeah. I thought it was pretty funny. :3

[TheChampOfPokemon]

He'd probaly die

[mannimarco3]

His armour sounds so heavy i think he'd cause a small earthquake :P

[TheChampOfPokemon]

Or what if he was in a building and fell. He'd probaly fall right through all the floors

[mannimarco3]

If he jumped into the water he would hit the ocean floor in 5 seconds XD

[amaro2]

yeah but he is so badass he would survive underwater anyway

[ca5197]

i say 3 seconds

[ca5197]

he probably would

[GoldensunGSD]

how will he get up in that armour if he does?lol
