Roylarum

"I'm going to die! But...it's okay. If I can die for Lord Roy, it would be my only wish now. You, hiding over there! Come out! Our love is eternal, and can never be broken!"

Roylarum is the het ship between Roy and Larum from the Fire Emblem fandom.

Canon
In Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, Larum is a dancer, originally from Etruria and the adopted daughter of Douglas, one of the Three Etrurian Generals. She was on the run from the corrupt influence of the Etrurian rulers in the Western Isles on the continent of Elibe. There are two ways for Larum to meet Roy, depending on the player's choice when crossing the Western Isles.

If the player visits the right village in Chapter 9, Roy goes west toward Caldonia and in the next chapters and Elffin is recruited instead of Larum. However, she meets him at the beginning of Chapter 12, where Larum gets ahead of her by getting very close to Roy. When Roy asks her to keep her distance, Larum compliments her on the red face he makes until she is stopped by Elffin. However, here she cannot be recruited into the army, and thus develop a level of support between the two, as Larum takes the role of the character who manages the Auguries for the rest of the game.

But on the other hand, If the player visits the left village or none of the two northern villages in Chapter 9, Roy goes north toward Mount Eburacum. In the next chapter, after defeating Nord, Roy rescues Larum from a dungeon, where she was imprisoned. There, Larum gets quite close to Roy with more intensity than on the other route, asking him to free the Western Isles from Etruria's control, although Merlinus does not like this and protests by asking Larum several times to move away and keep her distance from Roy. Since then, Larum joins Roy's army, which she supports with her dancing skills.

In their conversations, Larum often approaches Roy more boldly, even sticking to him. Roy often asks her to keep her distance so that he can fight his enemies, but Larum often makes Roy blush even more by even daring to show her love for him, even in the face of enemies and even the bustling rushes. This causes Roy to begin to distance himself more and more from Larum to avoid further embarrassment, as Roy initially does not know how to handle this type of situation.

However, if they reach higher ranks of support, Larum begins to feel bad due to Roy's constant dodging of his approaches and tells him so. Roy then takes Larum into consideration.

At the end of the game, if both have support A, Larum marries Roy and begins to rule as Marquise of Pherae together with him, which causes the Pheraens to show discontent and protest for bringing a dancer of unknown origins, but eventually Larum gains the respect of the Pheraens and has a happy life in Pherae.

Fanon
Larum is one of the popular ships for Roy, especially for the humor and laughter Larum causes with her forwardness in getting close to Roy very often and even sticking herself with him. In fanfictions and memes, Larum is often portrayed as a cheerful woman who confesses Roy her love for him very often while attached to him.

Roy and Larum can get criticism from opposers, specially RoyLili shippers that tend to be vocal about their OTP. They argue against Larum's forwardness, that some may find problematic, even though they got together and married after the story ended. Even in netorare memes and fics, Lilina is depicted as a girl who hates Larum for meddling with her and being together with Roy, but the young version of Hector, Lilina's father from The Blazing Blade, is also depicted in memes threatening to kill Roy with the thunder axe Armads if Roy gets too close to Lilina and also approving RoyLili rival pairings, including Roylarum and Gonzalili (Gonzalez x Lilina).
