Hilda Valentine Goneril is the bubbly pink-haired student of the Golden Deer in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Known for her slacker mentality, she will use any excuse or opportunity to get out of doing chores around the monastery and lifting a finger in battle.
That being said, Hilda undoubtedly has a charm about herself that appeals to both her peers and the players. Fans thoroughly enjoy the combination of her carefree personality and monstrous strength, and have been inspired to create stunning works of art that deserves as much love as Hilda herself.
10 Beauty With An Axe By @Meatkasa
In Three Houses, it is possible to dictate which class and weapons each unit uses, based on how they are trained during lectures. While Hilda can be anything from a Dancer to a Pegasus Knight, it makes the most sense to play her strengths of handling axes.
Artist @meatkasa draws a beautiful Hilda casually holding her weapon of choice over her shoulder. The contradiction between her innocent face and the deadly axe sums up the overall vibe that Hilda exudes throughout the game.
9 Pokémon Partner By @Beanynne
Like Fire Emblem, Pokémon is a beloved franchise of Nintendo. If there were ever to be a crossover between the two franchises, the characters of Three Houses would no doubt serve as great Pokémon Trainers.
With Hilda’s pink hair and charm, it would be very fitting for her to have a powerful team of adorable Fairy-type Pokémon like Sylveon. In this precious fan art by @beanynne, Hilda embraces her Sylveon with a lot of love and affection. Together, they are sure to win over the hearts and take down their opponents.
8 In Armor By @Romans-Art
Throughout the game, it is very apparent that Hilda is someone who enjoys investing time and effort into her looks and fashion. However, she’s willing to suit up appropriately for the sake of war.
In fact, Hilda still manages to be the most fashionable knight on the battlefield, as shown in this fan art by @romans-art. With golden armor, a cape, and her pink sleeves poking through, the pink-haired noble proves that war and fashion are not mutually exclusive.
7 Minding Her Own Business By @Phlavours
As a young student at the Officers Academy, Hilda has a habit of making up excuses as to why she can’t participate in battle. Despite her lack of interest in fighting, she will surprise everyone by cutting down the enemy with a few swings of her axe.
Artist @phlavours draws Hilda standing around with an axe in hand. The bright red stains on her cheek and the blade of her axe are proof that she is more than capable of holding her own in battle, even if it means getting a little blood on her hands.
6 Pink Tag Team By @Carefreejules
With her bubbly nature and pink color scheme, Hilda is very compatible with another iconic Nintendo character, Kirby. This adorable fan art by @carefreejules pairs the two pink Nintendo characters together with the look of joy on their faces.
To match Kirby’s small frame and cute appearance, Hilda is also drawn in a rounder chibi-style of art. With their weapons in hand, they are ready to take on the world and anyone who challenges them.
5 Swinging Axe By @Alinalal-Art
Hilda may come across as lazy and pretend to be a frail individual, but she’s quite the opposite when it comes to a serious battle of life or death.
As shown in this fierce fan art by @alinalal-art, Hilda is not only great at wielding an axe but also strong enough to finish an opponent off with confidence. After swinging her trusty axe, she looks down upon her fallen enemy. To pump herself up, she even has a habit of chanting her name loudly and proudly.
4 Shopping With Claude By @Kushexi
In Three Houses, each of the three house leaders have an unbreakable bond with a specific classmate who will have their back at all costs. While Dimitri has Dedue and Edelgard has Hubert, Claude has Hilda.
Artist @kushexi adds their own creative twist to this relationship by drawing Claude and Hilda in modern-day clothing. The two appear to be out on a shopping trip together while Hilda has her hand on the shoulder of a tired Claude.
3 Sassy By @Zeroshadows
Like many of her fellow noble classmates at the Officers Academy, Hilda bears a Crest that allows her to wield a Hero’s Relic. The Hero’s Relic that is associated with Hilda’s Crest of Goneril is known as Freikugel, a powerful axe with one of the highest Mights in the game.
With Freikugel in her possession, Hilda can be unstoppable. This impressive fan art by @zeroshadows features Hilda not only showing off her Hero’s Relic but also giving a sassy pose that radiates with confidence.
2 Strike A Pose By @Jadeologie
For the most part, Hilda strategically uses her beauty and charm to get what she wants. For example, men like Sylvain and Ferdinand are shown in their support conversations to have unknowingly fallen for Hilda’s charm by doing her dirty work for her.
As such, Hilda knows how to play to her strengths. With a cute pose and smile, she is sure to win over the hearts of everyone in this beautiful artwork by @jadeologie.
1 Delicate Flower By @Sonschmarn
In her support conversations with Claude and Lorenz, Hilda is referred to as a “delicate flower” to give the impression that she’s a soft-hearted and innocent girl. In fact, even Ignatz has stated that he wishes to paint a picture of Hilda amongst many beautiful flowers.
Similar to many of her male classmates, fans and artists like @sonschmarn see the connection between Hilda and flowers. This fan art beautifully ties in Hilda’s pink and red color scheme with bold red flowers in the background.
