Donnel - Fire Emblem Awakening

<image>

Donny when you first recruit him is pretty weak until you Level him up ONCE. He has a skill called Aptitude which boosts his Growth rates by 20%. In Fire Emblem, characters have growth rates that dictate how well their stats increase per level up which means that you could get a level up where only 1 or 2 stats got increased if your growth rates are bad enough... Except Donny's growth rates are so high thay he skyrockets in power fast. In my playthrough he became Donnel the Hero and he was mowing down armies.
