Byleth has low mobility, but they are a "distance demon," according to game director Masahiro Sakurai. Byleth can use the Hero Relics, including the Sword of the Creator, the Areadbhar lance, the Aymr axe, and the Failnaught bow. Byleth's Final Smash is Progenitor God Final Heaven, and he/she will team up with Sothis for a powerful attack.
