The Gatekeeper (Japanese: 門番, Hepburn: Monban) is a character in the 2019 video game Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

He is a background character who serves as the gatekeeper of Garreg Mach, typically greeting the protagonist, Byleth, by telling them there is nothing to report.

He appears in the sequel, Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, which takes place in an alternate story set two years after Three Houses, showing what would have happened if Byleth did not come to Garreg Mach.
