How come the first four heroes had blue hair?

[RoyLover]

Well, I was just thinking, but...What's with blue hair heroes? What I mean was, how come the first four Fire Emblem games, the heroes had blue hair? (Marth, Sigurd, Alm, Celice) Is there some sort of royalty to blue hair?

I think its kinda stupid youd even ask a question of such caliber. well anyway they are prolly related somehow in a somekind of blood lines.

Very doubtful. FE1, 2, and 4 didn't even take place on the same continent! Sigurd and Celice are the only ones directly related. I guess it was just tradition... like the red and green Social Knights for FE1, 3, 4, 6, and 7. Nowadays the leader's hair color is either brown or red (except for Hector and Lyn =D).

I think it's a good thing that the heroes have different hair color now because having the same hair color hero gets pretty dull, right? Actually, as long as the game is good and has a good plot, it doesn't really matter.
