AFFINITIES AND SUPPORT BONUSES

Affinities are basically the type that a person is. It really doesn't do anything but affect the stat bonuses you receive from a support conversation. Supports can be done by standing next to somebody that a certain character can support with and choosing the support option. FOr example, moving Eirika next to Ephraim, or Eliwood next to Hector can allow them to support if you tell them too. Note that you can only have support bonuses with one person, other than Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance (FE9). The affinities are as follow:

Fire - +1 in Attack, +2 in Hit
Thunder - +1 in Defense, +2 in Avoid
Wind - +2 in Hit, +2 in Avoid
Water - +1 in Attack, +1 in Defense
Dark - +1 in Attack, +2 in Avoid
Light - +1 in Defense, +2 in Hit
Heaven - +3 in Hit
Ground - +3 in Avoid

Now, you know what affinies do and how to use them, but you have not yet found where they are located and how to determine which affinity a character is. Well, when you look into a characters profile, look around on all of his/her pages, and somewhere (I can't recall which page) there should be something that says 'Affin [insert symbol here]' or something among those lines. Because yes, the affinites has symbols. Fire is a picture of a flame, Thunder is a lightning bolt, Wind looks like a green E with pointed edges, Water looks like a pale blue stone, Dark looks like a violet colored 6, Light is a yellow/orange cross, Heaven is a white cross with a deep blue for a background, and Ground looks like a brown colored gem. So, those are your support bonuses for you.
