I figured Dragon Quest deserved representation, but I didn't think there was a particular Hero that was more iconic than the others, so I just grouped them all together for the purposes of the poll.
There were a few I considered that I don't think are the answer, but I put an Other option on here for them in case someone else here does. I thought about Marth, but I think he's more widely thought of from Smash than Fire Emblem, at least in the west. I didn't know if anyone else from the series warranted consideration (Ike or Byleth, maybe?). I thought about Isaac from Golden Sun, but I don't think he's a relevant answer anymore. Maybe Adol from Ys, but I wasn't sure it was popular enough either. I also considered just Paper Mario, but that one might be hard to evaluate.
