Apprentice: Difference between revisions

|weapons=[[Lance (weapon)|Lances]]

The (Japanese: {{hl|見習い|Minarai}} ''Apprentice'') is a [[Lance (weapon)|lance]]-wielding class appearing in the [[Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones prototype]] that was eventually cut prior to the [[Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones|final release of the game]].  It was intended to be a "[[trainee]]" class and, as such, would have gained experience rapidly, and upon reaching level ten, would have promoted upon the start of the next chapter.  The Apprentice was a mounted flight class and thus would have suffered [[bonus damage]] to [[Bow]]s and [[Wind (magic)|wind magic]].

Apprentices are known to have had two promotion options back when it existed.  The first is to a [[Pegasus Knight]], which then can promote to a [[Falcon Knight]] or a [[Wyvern Knight]].  The other option is a [[Wyvern Rider]], which can promote into a [[Wyvern Knight]] or a [[Wyvern Lord]].  It is unknown if the second- and third-tier trainee mechanic existed at this point in development; if it did, it is unknown what bonus a third-tier Apprentice would have received and which class would have been the alternative to the third-tier Apprentice.

During the period of development when the Apprentice was in the game, it was the class belonging to [[Amelia]], at that point in time the princess of [[Frelia]].  In the final release of the game, the princess of Frelia was [[Tana]], locked into the [[Pegasus Knight]] class; the Apprentice class was replaced by the [[Recruit]], a trainee class assigned to the final release's version of Amelia, now a soldier of [[Grado (country)|Grado]].  No unique sprites were ever designed for the Apprentice; its map sprites were those of the [[Falcon Knight|Falcoknight]] and its battle sprites were those of the [[Pegasus Knight]].
