[edit] History
[edit] Epitaph of Twilight
In the Epitaph of Twilight, Fidchell's prophecies of a dark future cause the light of hope to be lost in the lands the Wave visits, resigning to despair and hopelessness.
[edit] .hack//Games
Realizing that Lios was no longer willing to help him, Kite was forced to find other ways to combat the Cursed Wave. Help soon came in the form of a plan developed by Wiseman in conjunction with the infamous hacker Helba. The two planned to try and seal part of the Wave in a specific location where it could be fought without damaging the rest of the system. Fidchell was located shortly afterwards in Σ Turbulent Distrusting Ice Wall and Kite and BlackRose traveled to battle with it. After a tough fight, the Phase was finally defeated. However, even with Helba's assistance the data fluctuations created by its destruction spread throughout the net and damaged systems all around the world.

[edit] .hack//XXXX
In XXXX, Fidchell is easily defeated by the party of Kite, Balmung, and Cubia.
[edit] End of The World
Though Fidchell had been defeated, fragments of its data were still spread throughout the system. These fragments were retreived by Jyotaro Amagi and sealed into an Epitaph PC for use in the R.A. Plan. However the first test of the Epitaph PC was a failure; shockwaves from the test spread throughout The World damaging data in many places. In the confusion Fidchell, still attached to its Epitaph PC was able to escape into the system.
[edit] .hack//G.U. Games
The Epitaph PC containing Fidchell eventually attached itself to the System Administrator Yata, and Avatar Fidchell appears in the third volume of the games.
[edit] Quotations
Fidchell is the first Phase encountered by Kite that talks.

[edit] Fidchell's Prophecies
This quote is apparently a fragment of the Epitaph of Twilight. He says it after being defeated.
- "Like a frenzied horse that is driven. An unseen wind of plague shrieks across the border. Pandemonium, wailing, and stench of carnage fills the air. There is no place to run. No hope of escape. Those who are mourned will never return. The hands of time cannot be turned back."
- — Fidchell —
This quote is taken from .hack//G.U.//Redemption.
- "The abberant key, borne in thy left arm. The key of twilight, borne in thy right arm. The final wave. The surge of rebirth shall become light and fill the world. Thou shalt lead the new gods to their twilight. Thou destroyest and createst, thou powerless one as the stirring footsteps of a giant shadow sound. Oh blessed be the little ones..."

[edit] Trivia
- According to the uncanonical Liminality Easter Eggs, Fidchell is a program designed to collect data on the human concept of unavoidable fate.
- According to Another Birth, the party that defeated Fidchell was Kite, BlackRose, and Wiseman.
- Fidchell casts his Oracle first before each major elemental attack. The Oracle lowers all teammates' tolerance towards that certain element that it called forward.
- Fidchell's original Japanese name was spelt as Fidhell, and the name was changed because Fidchell is a Celtic version of chess, and according to legends it often has a mystical or divinatory aspect to it. Battles ebb and flow as a result of a game of fidchell. (However, in celtic transcripts, the letters "ch" are to be pronounced as a strong "h", thus "Fidchell" is actually pronounced as "FidHell". Thus the Japanese phonetic transliteration was indeed correct.)
- Fidchell was the first phase that could talk in the original .hack games.
- Volume 3 of Another Birth erroneously refers to Fidchell as the fifth phase.
- Fidchell's GU theme song is called "Chain of Fate."
