First game

Fire Emblem: Thracia 776

The Short Bow is an uncommon bow-type weapon in the Fire Emblem series. The main features of this weapon depend on the game where it is present. In Thracia 776, it is a very common and unexpensive bow, while in the next two games, it is mainly used by mounted warriors from Sacae. Lastly, it is an uncommon but fairly normal bow in The Sacred Stones.

In the Elibe and Magvel games, it has a small critical bonus.

The short bow made its debut in Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, and since then it was available in other three games: Fuuin no Tsurugi, Blazing Sword, and The Sacred Stones.
