Kronya: Monica’s Doppelganger

Byleth and his students rescued Monica during early game missions. Monica rejoined the Officers academy as an NPC. However, it was discovered that the real Monica was dead and the doppelganger was Kronya. Kronya is a member of the Villainous organization, and she was able to assassinate Byleth’s father using her Monica disguise. Byleth also has the task of informing Monica’s father about his daughter’s fate.
The Real Monica
It is unclear if the Monica in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is the real Monica or Kronya. The fan theory suggests that this is Monica, not Kronya, given the following reasons.
- Monica, in the trailer, has a different hairstyle and dress.
- She lacks the villainous signature smirk in the game.
- Monica is seen wielding a wind tome and is a mage. On the contrary, Kronya is an assassin who fights with a personal sword.
- The changes in the story regarding Byleth are also an indication of the real Monica.
- The original target of Kronya, which is Jeralt, is missing, which removes the purpose of Kronya being in the game.
- The trailer has not shown how Monica will avoid being captured.
New Crest in Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes
One evident feature of playable Monica is that she possesses the Crest of Macuil. Macuil is one of the four saints in the Church of Seiros, with the others being Saint Cethleann, Saint Indech, and Saint Cichol. Defeating Macuil will help players earn a sword that is synchronized with house leader Claude.
It has been noticed that Macuil is unfriendly towards humans. He is also never willing to share his blood and Crest. If Monica is bearing the Crest in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, she will be the first playable character to do so. Thus, players will learn more about Saint Macuil in Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes.
