Fire Emblem Three Houses Paralogue: A Man Of Mystery
OOC: Since all the students in Fire Emblem: Three Houses have their own paralogue (some shared with each other), I figured that I should make one for Tahirah, too! Warning - long post ahead, so I’m going to have to put this under a cut.
In this paralogue (taking place pre-timeskip), Tahirah is made aware of her godfather, Rafaele, deciding to visit Tahirah at the Officers Academy to see how she’s been doing so far. However, there have been rumors of bandit attacks outside of Garreg Mach increasing as of lately. Out of concern, Tahriah decides that she wants to meet Rafaele not far outside the grounds of Garreg Mach so she can see him sooner and give him a tour, but also to ensure his safety.
After speaking with Byleth and the rest of the class she’s part of about this, she and the others go to meet her godfather. Unfortunately, Tahirah’s worries are proven correct as there is a band of fairly strong bandits trying to attack and presumably mug Rafaele enroute. The main mission of the paralogue will be to rout all the bandits, with the failing conditions being that Tahriah falls.
Yes, you read that right. Failing conditions are if Tahirah falls, not Rafaele.
As the fight continues, the others will notice that though Rafaele is having some difficulties in-battle intiially handling the bandits by himself, he’s not falling anytime soon. In fact, level-wise he’ll be a good amount above the rest of the main party which will raise some brows (and questions) among the crew.
As the battle reaches its end, the bandit leader will transform into a Demonic Beast using a Crest Stone. Tahirah and Rafaele are both disturbed by this, with Tahirah wondering if someone deliberately planned to attack Rafaele while Rafaele notes that he senses that the leader made a “foolish decision” in using the Crest Stone without actually realizing that it would make them completely mindless.
After the Demoinc Beast is defeated and all the bandits are routed, Tahirah and Rafaele will thank Byleth and the others for their help. Both wonder about the bandit leader becoming a Demonic Beast - and whether whoever gave them the Crest Stone had deliberately planned for the attack on Rafaele to happen.
If the right dialogue choices are made post-battle (aka if everyone inquires enough about Rafaele), Tahirah and Rafaele will reveal a bit of background on Rafaele’s abilities, more of Tahirah’s past, and so on. Either way, both will thank Byleth and the others for their assistance and Rafaele gets the chance to check out Garreg Mach with Tahriah.
If this paralogue is completed, Rafaele will be available sooner as a unit during post-timeskip-related battles depending on RP circumstances, as his way of repaying the others for helping him before.

FE3H OC - Kitt Burgess (they/them) - Three Hopes version
Note: Updated for additional dialogue!
as requested by @dazzlerazz :3 here is some info of them if they were to make an appearance in Three Hopes!
Preferred Class: Wyvern Lord (Axe)
Support Ability - Demonic Resonance: Increases Critical Rate when a monster is nearby
Action Ability - Wild Hunt: Attacking fills the Unique Ability Gauge and increases damage to enemies. When the gauge is full, press ZR to attack and instantly shatter an enemy's Stun Gauge, whether it has appeared or not.
Tactical Ability - Last One Standing - When ordered to attack: reduces damage received from enemies
Personal History
1180 - Remains at Garreg Mach after the Officer's Academy closes to guard the Holy Mausoleum.
1182 - Severs ties with the Church to wander across Fodlan, hunting down Demonic Beasts as the war begins.
Recruitment
Kitt's recruitment requirements are a similar to the Ashen Wolves in that:
1) They do not make an appearance during the academy phase.
2) They are available to recruit on all three routes.
However, they do not appear on the main mission maps, and as such do not require the expenditure of a Stratagem to recruit. Instead, they will appear randomly in conquered territories while exploring location nodes and accepting random quests. During these random quests, a monster will spawn on the map, upon which Kitt may make an appearance as a neutral unit.
A Side Mission will then begin, in which Shez's squad will be required to help Kitt defeat any interfering non-monster units within a reasonable time limit. Should they succeed, they will have the opportunity to recruit Kitt. If the timer is allowed to lapse before the requisite number of enemy units are defeated, then Kitt will draw the monster away from the area, causing both to disappear altogether. Shez will lose out on the opportunity to recruit Kitt for that quest, but will have another chance in future side quests.
After the main mission is complete and all enemy units have been routed, Kitt will hang out in camp and be available for deployment, conversation, training, or recreational activities
Paralogue - 'Stare of the Abyss' - featuring Kitt, Yuri, Hapi
Yuri receives news that Abyss is beset with a potential Demonic Beast infestation. Hapi is irritated knowing that she will be blamed in spite of her absence, and Kitt is called on for their expertise regarding the sudden incursion of monsters. Kitt surmises that the people of Abyss may have accidentally uncovered something in their exploration of the underground, but that the circumstances may be more sinister than that. They decide to investigate Abyss further, bringing Shez along for additional manpower.
The mission requires Shez to assist Hapi and Kitt with dispatching various Demonic Beasts wreaking havoc upon Abyss while ensuring Yuri is able to secure an escape route for the residents. A number of elite TWSITD agents appear as enemy commanders as the mission progresses. As the situation deteriorates, Yuri commands Hapi to sigh in order to sic the monsters upon TWSITD. She does so, with great frustration. It works, and Shez and Kitt deal with the aftermath.
Once all enemies are routed and the residents are led to safety, the mission ends. Hapi and Yuri ruminate on the damage done to Abyss, while Kitt uncovers a previously hidden trove of dark magic and Agarthan technology. They surmise that Abyss must be harboring TWSITD agents without even realizing it. This is something that Yuri will need to deal with once the war is over, and he is none too pleased. Hapi cheers him up, and promises they'll think of something whatever comes. They thank Shez and Kitt for their help saving Abyss.
That aside, Kitt remarks privately to Shez on how the Church once considered sealing them away in Abyss, and wonders what life would have been like living near Yuri and Hapi beneath the surface.
