Canas is a playable unit in ''[[Fire Emblem (game)|Fire Emblem]]''. Despite being a shaman, he is actually a very polite and courteous scholar.

=Background=

Canas was born to a family of magic users and was the son of [[Niime]], the Mountain Hermit. He had three brothers who became wielders of dark magic. However, all three of them were overtaken by the darkness and were reduced to vegetative states. Canas became a scholar, studying mostly dark magic- although he preferred to call it by its proper name of elder magic. Canas later married a magic user in order to study dark magic more closely. His wife was actually a mage, which angered his mother, who had wanted him to marry a shaman. Two years prior to Eliwood's Tale in ''Fire Emblem'', Canas had a son with his wife named [[Hugh]].

Canas later took the next step and began using dark magic, becoming a full-fledged shaman. In ''Fire Emblem'' he first showed up in "The Port of Badon" (Eliwood Chapter 16x, Hector Chapter 17x). Canas was staying at Badon and seeking passage to Valor, the Dread Isle, for undisclosed reasons. However, no one would take him to the deadly island. If a member of Eliwood's group visits the house he is staying at, Canas agrees to join Eliwood's group after learning that they were also bound for Valor.

Canas then returned to his family in Ilia after the adventure was complete. Canas and his wife died not long afterwards when they were trying to stop a snowstorm. This left their son to be raised by Niime.

=Support Conversation Summaries=

Canas is capable of having Support conversations with five other characters.

*'''[[Bartre]]-''' In the first conversation, Bartre summons Canas and asks him if he is one of those magic users. Canas tries to explain the dark arts to Bartre, but Canas's sophisticated speech gives Bartre a headache (particularly the "hard words" he uses), so Bartre decides to punch a rock until his head feels better. In the second conversation, Bartre sees Canas reading a book and asks him if its one of the books that helps him to kill people. But Canas says its just a normal book that he reads for the thrill of new knowledge. Bartre manages to relate to it by saying its like how he eats all he can after a battle. In the final Support conversation, Bartre finds Canas exhausted and says that it is because all his reading must have made his body weak. Bartre then volunteers to train Canas to be stronger, and in exchange he asks Canas to lend him a skinny book (to read, not to eat as Canas first presumes). Bartre says that it is so the two can help each other along their different paths.
*'''Nino-''' Nino meets with Canas while he's reading, and she seems interested by his book. Canas is glad to have another reader in the army and offers to let her read his book, but he then discovers that she can't read. Canas then begins teaching Nino how to read, and he tells Nino about his family situation. When she learns that Canas's mother was trying to force-teach their child magic when he was only two years old, Nino told Canas that he should stop traveling and return to his family as soon as possible to take care of his son. Later, Nino is able to read enough to read the names of her real family members on her pendant. Canas is surprised to see Nino's mother is Iris, which is the same name as his wife's sister, whom he heard was dead. Canas and Nino take this as proof that Canas and Nino might be uncle and niece. They both take pride in this relation.
