No joke, it's literally a male character from Fire Emblem named Guy. Most generic name possible and his appearance ticks off like every 'generic swordfighter' box possible that isn't having pointy hair.

Even better, literally just make the characterMyrmidon. (or a Myrmidon)  It turns out that Fire Emblem actually DOES have it's own dedicated 'generic swordfighter' class, even within the series, so I literally elect them as a character.

"The Myrmidon (剣士, Kenshi, Sword Fighter in the Japanese versions) is a classic combat physical class that recurrently appears across the Fire Emblem Series. Wielding Swords as their sole weapon of choice, the Myrmidon class is distinguished from the similar Mercenary class, but closely linked to it in terms of origins and promotion paths." -Fire Emblem Wiki yes, this is gold
