First game

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light

The Thunder tome or spell is a basic magic weapon in the Fire Emblem series. It consists on striking the enemy with a flash of lightning.

In Valentia, it is a simple black spell that is learned by most magic users. In Jugdral, Tellius, and Ylisse, it is the most basic thunder spell, while in Archanea, Elibe, and Magvel, it is the second most simple Anima magic available.

Thunder has been available in all games of the series.
