Lexdain is the het ship between Lex and Edain from the Fire Emblem fandom.

Canon
Lex and Edain are two playable characters in Fire Emblem Genealogy of the Holy War. They are both nobles of Grannvale. Edain is the daughter of the Duke of Yngvi and Lex is the son of the Duke of Dozel. Both are decendant of two crusaders ( Ullr and Nál respectively) and inherits a minor holy blood. During the war between Granvale and Isaach their fathers go to the fight.

On the begining of the game most Grannvale's forces are fighting the kingdom of Isaach. The neighbour's kingdom Verdan took advantage of the fact that most Grannvale's forces are away to attack the country. Led by Munnir (Verdan's prince) Verdan's forces invade Yngvi. Edain is captured by Munnir who take her to Verdan. Sigurd (the heir to the dukedom next to Yngvi and Edain childhood friend) go to fight Verdan to defend the country against the invasion and to save his friend. Azelle (Lex best friend) was worried for Edain and join Sigurd's army, Lex followed him. Jamke (Verdan's youngest prince) disagree with the invasion and free Edain alongside the thief Dew (who are asked to protect her) and they both join Sigurd's army.

If Edain reaches enough love points with Lex they will wed. In chapter 5 they both fight a member of their family, (Edain's brother Andrey and Lex's father Lombard). At the end of chapter 5, Sigurd is betrayed and killed by Arvis. Most of his army died with him. Lex probably died alongside his allies. Edain manage to escape and go to Isaach (where some members of the army has sent their children to safety). She becomes an abbess in Tirnanog. She raises her own children Lana and Lester, and acts as a mother figure to Seliph, Diarmuid/Tristan, Larcei/Creidne, and Scáthach/Dalvin. In the second generation her two children that she has with her husband are playables. Her daughter Lana inherit her class and inventory while her son Lester inherit his father's inventory. After the war Lester will became the duke of Dozel.

Fanon
Strategically, Lex and Edain are considered by the players to be a good pair. This is due to the fact that Lex is considered to be a good option as a father to all children. If he is their father, both Lana and Lester will get solid statistics and the usefull skills Vantage and Parangon. Though, the ship isn't overly popular due to the fact that Lex and Edain don't share any special interaction. However a small part of the fanbase ship them because Lester has blue hair like Lex, and they share the same hairstyle, looking very similar.If not paired together, a recurrent joke and headcanon in the fanbase is that Lester is Lex's illegitimate child (if he doesn't marry Edain).

However, Edain and Lex children will lack the skill Pursuit and Lester won't be able to inherits weapons. Therefore, most players prefers to pair Edain with Jamke or Midir since they give a decent Lana and a good Lester with the skill Charge (and Pursuit if Midir is the father), and a few even like to pair Edain with Arden. With Midir, Jamke or Arden as his father, Lester will be able to inherit weapons (including a brave bow). The players who whant to focus on Lana, generally pair Edain with Azelle or Claud as she can have good magic growths; and other members of the fanbase like to headcanon that Lex inherited the blue hair from Finn instead of Lex. As for Lex, some players prefer to keep Lex with Ayra or Tailtiu with whose he have special convos.
