Why Laevatein and Loki Will be the Jan/Feb Legendary Heroes
I keep saying they'll be playable, and I did some research to prove why. Sorry, I'm treating this as a forum more than a question in this case.
First off, pure aesthitics and art. Beautiful art for Laevatein, clickbait art for Loki, I'd by shocked if both lovely females would be locked up forever as enemies. No one thought Veronica was that cute, really.
Second, the BST's of these units are 165 and 153 for Laevatein and Loki respectively (taken from Lunatic difficulty and subtracting every stat by 4 as they are listed as 'Lvl 40+'). These statlines seem quite realistic, two points above the trending average for ranged and infantry melee units.
Thirdly, let's focus on Laevatein. Her Sword is a bladetome, a legendary sword with 16 Mt, but an additional 3 as well as the ability to tack all Hone-type buffs into additional damage. Her A-skill, Defiant Atk, is a way to help set herself up for a bonus 14 damage automatically when under 50% HP. She comes with Desperation also, which matches with the Defiant A-skill. Her statline itself is similar to Ayra, yet slightly varied. Laevatein gets 42 HP, 35 Atk, 30 Spd, 34 Def, and 24 Res. Effectively, Laevatein takes away 7 of Ayra's Spd and reinvests it into HP (1), Def (3), and Res (3). She also adds +2 BST into her Atk. Why, though, will she be a Legendary hero? Many claim there will be more sisters of Nifl, but I personally don't see a woman from an ice tribe having fire-based powers - do you?
Lastly, Loki. She invests her 153 BST into 41 HP, 32 Atk, 34 Spd, 17 Def, and 29 Res. The high HP is due to her signature staff, Thokk, which comes with Wrathful Staff and an effective 'Gravity Ploy' which works on enemies with a range of 2 that have 3 less HP than herself. Her high Spd and Atk are likely to introduce her as the first of a possible new breed of combat-ready healers. Her two skills are Renewal and Hone Speed 3. Her assist is Recover+, which with her base 50 atk with Thokk +10 = 30 health to an ally consistently. HOWEVER, my biggest point is this: What is Loki's Special skill? That's right, it's Solid-EARTH Balm. Did you catch it? That's right, EARTH, the one hero we're missing, assuming Laevatein is our Fire hero. Also, in Chapter 1, Loki seems impressed by the summoner, so that could easily be a setup for her change of alliances.
Thanks for listening to my rant lol

Honestly it seems iffy. Eventually they'll be playable sure, as will Bruno and Veronica, but Veronica and Bruno aren't playable YET. It seems to me like enemies aren't going to be released playable until some special event when the story is totally finished. Just saying Veronica isn't 'cute' doesn't really explain them jumping release up way before hers despite her being in the game for so long so far.

BELIEVE!!! I know it sounds like a cat poster, but it's TRUE!!!
Quotes aside, Veronica was always the main antagonist in the first Book, but here Surtr is the main villain. It's worth noting he's INSANE, so if I were Laevatein and Loki, I'd eventually switch sides myself. You?

I NEED Laevatein in my team! Many will think that she's absolutely overpowered; a Blade Sword (?), a Blade "tome" Sword is nothing to laugh about ! But her art looks really cool and imposing (kinda like Legion's/Sanaki's/Arvis's). Loki's staff is really good too, Thott is a weird name tho (this is a joke BTW).
Also I definetly agree with you here, we still need a fire and an earth legendary hero, and they both are suited for this role.
(even if we should be prepared for another "random" legendary person from Nifl, like the younger sister, or even that Ganondorf clone that summons the actual sun; that would be unexpected)

Surtr was meant to be an enemy, I would be surprised if he is playable. See 'Veronica', main antagonist of Book 1, and not gonna be playable anytime soon.
I know, Laevatein is the best! Her dark skin is gorgeous and stands out in the pale FE community, not to mention quadtails and a 'bladeblade' lol
All I'm sayin' is I actually have a Hector I'm holding on to so I can give Laevatein DC. DC/Vantage in a team with Light Breath Ninian to set her up - rip everything lol
