The '''Myrmidon''' (Japanese: {{hl|剣士|kenshi}} ''Sword Fighter''), also known as the '''Sword Fighter''' (Japanese: {{hl|ソードファイター|Sōdo faitā}} ''Sword Fighter'') is a sword-wielding class present in the {{FES}}. Their first appearance was in {{FE2}}; the only games where they do not exist are {{FE1}} and {{FE3}}; however, the remakes of those games do contain myrmidons. {{FE14}} does not include myrmidons in core gameplay, instead featuring the functionally-identical [[Samurai]] class; the Myrmidon class itself does, however, appear in the [[Downloadable content in Fire Emblem Fates|DLC]] chapter [[Hidden Truths 1]] as the class used by [[Owain]] in that chapter. | The '''Myrmidon''' (Japanese: {{hl|剣士|kenshi}} ''Sword Fighter''), also known as the '''Sword Fighter''' (Japanese: {{hl|ソードファイター|Sōdo faitā}} ''Sword Fighter''), is a sword-wielding class present in the {{FES}}.

The class originated as a promotion of the [[Mercenary]], akin to the [[Hero]] of most other games. In {{FE4}} and {{title|Thracia 776}}, the Myrmidon acts akin to the Mercenary of the previous titles; however, it has two separate promotions depending on which unit is promoting: the [[Forrest (class)|Forrest]] (''Genealogy'') / [[Mercenary]] (''Thracia'') and the [[Swordmaster]]. In most games from {{title|The Binding Blade}} onward, the Myrmidon has been depicted as something of a counterpart to the Mercenary, with lower strength and defense in exchange for higher skill and speed. | The class originated as a promotion of the [[Mercenary]], akin to the [[Hero]] of most other games.
