Paladin (character Class) - Fire Emblem

The Paladin class in the Fire Emblem strategy franchise is a mounted combat class, the promoted form of the Cavalier class. Unlike most traditional definitions of the Paladin class, the Paladins of Fire Emblem are not holy warriors and cannot wield any form of magic; the exception is Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu and Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, in which female Paladins are able to wield healing staves. The Paladin is typically a balanced class, primarily set apart by its high movement-per-turn range. Throughout the series' history, they have had access to all four primary melee weapon types, with the use of swords and lances the most consistent. Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn split the class into four variants, each exclusively specialising in one of the four weapon types.
