Trivia
- The Light Priestess is one of only five playable classes in Radiant Dawn whose members can achieve multiple SS ranks. The others are the Saint, Vanguard, Chancellor and Black Knight.
- The Light Priestess's Japanese katakana name links the class to the Shaman class of Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776, in which Shamans were female Cleric-like users of light magic and staves; "shaman" is also historically used as an English translation for the class's kanji name. The name was likely changed in localization to avoid confusion with the dark magic-using class present in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade and The Sacred Stones, as unlike Genealogy and Thracia, these games were released internationally.
