“ | You're just a pathetic old man. How dare you get in the way of my brilliant plan...you dog. | „ |
~ "Monica" after stabbing Jeralt. |
“ | Just the sight of your face makes me so angry! Can I kill you now, just to get it over with? Please? Gah! Why not? It would be easy. You're such a weak creature that I'd hardly have to lift a finger. Fighting alongside you, sharing our victories and defeats... I'm beginning to feel attached to you. I don't know why. I'm an Agarthan, and you're just a pathetic little worm. It's unthinkable. It's repulsive! But that's how I feel. So if you won't let me kill you, you'll have to agree to be my plaything. Forever. All right? | „ |
~ Kronya threatening the Summoner in Fire Emblem Heroes. |
Kronya, also known as Monica von Ochs, is a supporting antagonist in Fire Emblem: Three Houses and a member of Those Who Slither in the Dark. During the Acadamy Phase, she disguised herself as Monica, presumably done after killing the real one, and inflitrated the Garre Mach Monestary, turning other students into Demonic Beasts and killing Jeralt.
She is voiced by Marika Kōno in Japanese version and by Colleen O'Shaughnessey in English version.
Personality
Kronya is a psychotic, murderous and sadistic assassin who has a childish streak which annoys the Flame Emperor. Her childish behavior hides her severe brutality and bloodlust, remorselessly backstabbing her victim with a smile on her face. She also acts arrogant towards her enemies, calling them vermin. However, in her last moment, she was also revealed to be a coward who ran away from Byleth after her defeat, and begged them to save her as she was betrayed by Solon and was about to be sacrificed for his ritual.
Biography
Kronya first appears in the end of Chapter 6 under the guise of Monica.
During the Horsebow Moon of 1180, when the Death Knight kidnapped Flayn, Monica was seen unconscious along with Flayn. Monica quickly recovers and re-enters the Officers Academy as a member of the Black Eagles. Other students and members of the monastery observe that she has become quite close to Edelgard and that her personality has completely changed. Kronya reveals herself after Those Who Slither in the Dark are defeated by Jeralt, Byleth, and some of the students of the Officers Academy while experimenting on other students. Kronya pretends to be a captive and approaches Jeralt to thank him, but when Jeralt turns his back, she stabs him. Byleth tries to stop her using Sothis' Divine Pulse but is stopped by Thales. Kronya is surprised by Thales' appearance, but Thales teleports her without explanation.
Later, Thales and the Flame Emperor are discussing Kronya's carelessness, as the truth of Those Who Slither in the Dark would have been revealed by Kronya's death. Thales asks Kronya to team up with Solon, a prospect she expresses excitement for. Kronya once again fights with Byleth and their class, mocking them and revealing her true self, but she loses. Before Byleth cuts her, Solon shows up and grabs Kronya's heart, using her to perform a ritual to banish Byleth to the dark dimension of Zahras. Soon after Sothis' power freed Byleth from the dark dimension, Solon was killed, ending Kronya's sacrifice in vain.

“ | Leonie: Monica... You'll pay for what you've done! Kronya: I told you! I am not Monica, I am Kronya! Do not call me by that fake name! Leonie: I don't care what you're called. I don't care if it takes my last breath. I'll kill you! Kronya: Please, my powers are beyond your comprehension. You're just a filthy worm! |

Trivia
- Kronya is the only summonable Fire Emblem villain in Fire Emblem Heroes that does not get an adaptational heroism. She maintains her condescending attitude and even sends death threats towards the Summoner, who is notable for earning some sort of respect and friendship from many villains, including the likes of Zephiel, Gharnef and even the misanthrophic Grima.
- Ironically, while she became the first member from Those Who Slither in the Dark that became playable in Fire Emblem Heroes, she never has more impact on the entire story (unlike all others from Three Houses) other than killing Jeralt, and is slain one chapter after that.
