* [[Book Ends]]: An inversion regarding the [[Recurring Riff|Fire Emblem Theme]]. ''Path of Radiance'' seems at first like it might have discarded the iconic tune, until {{spoiler|the very end. You hear a bit of it in the background of the last cutscene, and in ''[[Metroid]]''-like fashion the theme returns with a [[Crowning Music of Awesome|rousing vengeance]] on the last screen of the game (the Unit Records). In turn, the theme is one of the first tunes you hear in ''Radiant Dawn'', on the main menu.}}

* [[But for Me It Was Tuesday]]: Variation: If you have Jill fight Ashnard, he'll say he doesn't even know who her father is, even though he's one of Daein's generals {{spoiler|and died for his country.}} Unfortunately for Ashnard, this pushes Jill's [[Berserk Button]].

* [[Call a Rabbit A Smeerp]]: In ''Path of Radiance'' and ''Radiant Dawn'', normal humans are referred to as "beorc," though beorc usually refer to themselves as humans, while laguz (the game world's other humanoid race), who dislike beorc, use the word "human" as an insult. Meanwhile, the beorc use the term "sub-human" to refer to Laguz, and again, this is meant to be an insult.

* [[Call Back]]: In an info conversation in Path of Radiance, Ike and Soren discuss how neither one of them likes to pack unnecessary items and they both travel light. In Radiant Dawn, Soren's support ending with Ike mentions that he "lightly packed" before leaving with him.

** Eventually justified in Radiant Dawn: {{spoiler|Lekain has him under a Blood Pact that will slowly kill off his people if he doesn't do what the leader of Begnion tells him to. Apparently the Blood Pact didn't specify who the "leader of Begnion" was, as neither Naesala nor Kilvas suffer any ill effects when he fights for Sanaki. Then again though, seeing as Kilvas is kind of statues at the time...}}

* [[Crutch Character]]: Zig-zagged, unusually for a [[Fire Emblem]] game. Several characters play the role of Crutch Character like Titania, but have decent enough growths for them to remain feasible throughout the entire game. (In ''Radiant Dawn'', Titania's even a popular end-game choice.) In ''Radiant Dawn'', the characters generally alternate between this. In part 1, Sothe and Nailah play this role. In Part 2, Elincia plays this role. (As she actually starts in the third tier of promotion.) However, unlike others, they remain pretty feasible throughout the game.

* [[Cutscene Power to The Max]]: In Radiant Dawn, Kurthnaga forced a ceasefire by virtue of being [[Person of Mass Destruction|as large as a castle and able to blow it up]]. When he gets on the battlefield, however, you find out he's only around level 20 (halfway to his max), his accuracy is subpar and he's incredibly slow. Most people use a lot of their BEXP to get him to a decent level so he doesn't die all the time.

* [[Decoy Protagonist]]: Micaiah is set up as the main character of ''Radiant Dawn'', but by the end of the game, it's clear that Ike is meant to be the main character (again), relegating Micaiah to [[Supporting Protagonist]] status at best.

** Greil's combat animation looks a bit... weird... compared to Ike's or Boyd's in the prologue of ''Path of Radiance''; his sword-arm looks rather stiff, and his backhanded swing doesn't look very forceful compared to Ike's and Boyd's fore-handed swings. Not only was Greil [[I Let You Win|deliberately holding back on that fight]], but {{spoiler|his sword-arm had been crippled so that he COULDN'T swing his training sword properly.}}

** To defeat {{spoiler|Ashera, Ike must deal the finishing blow with Ragnell. To actually harm Ashera to begin with requires one's weapon be blessed by Yune partway through the Endgame, so if Ike doesn't have Ragnell equipped then for some reason, one cannot defeat Ashera. With this scenario clearly in mind, the game ensures that in the event that Ike ''doesn't'' have Ragnell equipped at that point, Yune automatically prompts him to do it and ensures Ragnell will be blessed.}}
