The Bishop (normally 司祭 Bishop) is an advanced magical class which debuted in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light. Traditionally the promoted class for Priests and Clerics, they are primarily potent healers but also have access to one or more types of offensive magic, depending on the individual game: the broader tome category in the Archanea games, the three types of anima magic in the Jugdral games, and light magic in all other games.
Since The Binding Blade, Bishops are defined primarily by their exceptionally high Resistance, the strongest of their stats, while also possessing high Magic and good Skill and Speed. However, their HP and physical defense are lacking like most magical classes, rendering them frail and vulnerable to physical assaults. Prior to The Binding Blade, the class was more balanced and offensively oriented and a more direct counterpart to the Sage of contemporary and later games.
In the majority of its appearances, the Bishop is the promoted form of the Priest/Curate and/or Cleric, depending only on which of the two classes is present in the game in question. Originally in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light and Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, the Bishop is also the promoted form of the Mage, acting as the sole advanced magic class; in all later games, the Sage replaced it as the Mage's promotion. Blazing Sword and The Sacred Stones have the offensively-oriented Monk, exclusive to the two games, also promote to Bishop. In Radiant Dawn, after promoting from Priests, Bishops can in turn class change to become Saints. The class is an enemy-only class with no class change association in Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776, with the High Priest instead acting as the promoted form of the Priest. The Bishop class is entirely absent in Gaiden and Awakening
