Thief

The Thief is a character class present in nearly all instalments of the Fire Emblem series. Characteristically fast, thieves have a great movement range for a non-mounted unit. Their physical strength and defense are often lacking, which leaves many players to aim for their theives to avoid combat. However, they possess value in utility with the ability to steal from enemies, pick locks, and allow for a greater vision range during Fog of War.
