My favorite Nintendo character Ayra, from Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu (which also stars Sigurd), is what Brawl's Fire Emblem cast really needs, although many disagree. She is also known as Ira in Japan. She would represent Fire Emblem's Swordmaster class, which is arguably the most popular class ever. Earlier in this board, here has been a thread supporting fellow Swordmaster Mia for Brawl, but Mia is a bad representative for the Swordmaster class.
Masahiro Sakurai is considering to add non-Lords to the Brawl roster. Oguma is one of them. However, he is not wanting to put much emphasis on Japan-only characters.
Here is what Ayra looks like (cropped from Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu: TREASURE; background is removed):
Ayra has great move potential, and I found that she could a very fun character to play as. She is shockingly beautiful, and she will look even more beautiful in Brawl's graphics. However, I do not consider looks as a major factor for being playable in the SSB series. Ayra has a lot of real world significance, especially to the Japanese audience. She would bring great nostalgia to the SSBB audience. For story, she has good storyline importance, both direct and indirect. The Isaacian-Grandbellian War has to do with both her and, indirectly but closely, the main story of the game. Ayra's country, the Kingdom of Isaac, was at war with Sigurd's country, the Kingdom of Grandbell, in the meantime of the main story of Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu. Also, Sigurd's son Celice grew up in the Kingdom of Isaac and with Ayra's relatives. However, her role in the story is of questionable importance. Her chances of being in Brawl are somewhat questionable.
Origin: Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu (SNES, 1996, Japan only)
Role: Between major and minor
Tier Possibility: Top Tier
B-button attack: Ryuuseiken (Astra)
Up-B attakc: Odo Screwball Slash
Horizontal-B attack: Fly straight and upward Balmunk
Down-B attack: Slash Through
