Sure thing!

Upon introduction, both Kratos and Lucina appeared as mysterious and stoic swordsmen who appeared just in time to save the heroes. Both behaved like no-nonsense individuals who are considerably less quirky than their teammates and companions, though that serves as a mask for both their ties to the hero, knowledge of past and future events, as well as their role in the story.

As it turns out, they're related to the hero (being Lloyd's father and Chrom's future daughter), are well aware of the darker facts of the story (like the dark fate befalling their relative's closest friend, Colette and Robin), and wrecked with guilt because of it. As such, they both set out to change the fate of the world, with varying degrees of subtlety and activity. Both also wield the same weapons, use the same techniques, and harness the same powers as Lloyd and Chrom thanks to their familial ties.
