The '''Hero''' (Japanese: {{hl|勇者|Yūsha}} ''Hero'') is an [[:Category:Advanced classes|advanced]] infantry [[class]] which debuted in {{FE1}} and is present in almost all subsequent games, acting as the [[class change|promoted]] form of the [[Mercenary]] in most of its appearaces. It is absent in {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} and {{title|Thracia 776}}, in which its role as the promoted class for the [[Myrmidon]] is filled by two functionally identical classes: the [[Forrest (class)|Forrest]] in the former, and the Mercenary in the latter. In addition to its usual role as a normal class, the Hero has twice served as a [[Lord]]-like class exclusive to the protagonist of a game: it is [[Alm]]'s promoted class in {{title|Gaiden}} and its remake, {{title|Echoes: Shadows of Valentia}}, and [[Ike]]'s second-tier initial class in {{title|Radiant Dawn}}. Additionally, it exists as a class exclusive to the NPC [[Greil]] in {{title|Path of Radiance}}, unavailable to the player.

It is absent in {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} and {{title|Thracia 776}}, in which its role as the promoted class for the [[Sword Fighter]] is filled by two functionally identical classes: the [[Forrest (class)|Forrest]] in the former, and the Mercenary in the latter. In addition to its usual role as a normal class, the Hero has twice served as a [[Lord]]-like class exclusive to the protagonist of a game: it is [[Alm]]'s promoted class in {{title|Gaiden}} and its remake, {{title|Echoes: Shadows of Valentia}}, and [[Ike]]'s second-tier initial class in {{title|Radiant Dawn}}. Additionally, it exists as a class exclusive to the NPC [[Greil]] in {{title|Path of Radiance}}, unavailable to the player.


Ever since {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}}, the Hero (or its substitutes) has acted as a counterpart and opposite to the [[Swordmaster]] class: compared to Swordmasters, Heroes trade [[Skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]] for greater [[strength]] and slightly improved [[HP]] and [[defense]]. As such, they typically make for superior front-line units, capable of dealing very substantial damage while being durable enough to survive bombardment in the [[Turn|enemy phase]]. As with most other physically-oriented units, however, the class's [[resistance]] is lacking on average.

Traditionally, the Hero is the [[Class change|promoted]] form of the Mercenary, although variations on this exist. {{title|The Sacred Stones}}, {{title|Awakening}}, and {{title|Fates}} give Mercenaries a secondary alternative to Heroes, the [[Ranger]] and [[Bow Knight]] respectively, while also allowing [[Fighter]]s to promote to Hero; Fighters also promote to Hero in ''Gaiden'' and ''Shadows of Valentia'', with both being Alm's personal classes. Heroes do not promote from anything in {{title|Path of Radiance}} and {{title|Radiant Dawn}}, and in the latter as Ike's initial class it has a third-tier promoted form, the [[Vanguard]].

In {{title|Engage}}, Heroes instead promote from Sword Fighters, who are allowed to choose between two different variants—one that uses [[lance]]s as its sidearm, the other using axes—depending on the unit's weapon proficiencies.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Until ''Awakening'' and before ''Three Houses'', the Mercenary/Hero line was almost exclusively male, with only four exceptions: [[Malice]] in {{FEBS}}, [[Radney]] in {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} (as a [[Forrest (class)|Forrest]]), [[Machyua]] in {{title|Thracia 776}}, and [[Echidna]] in {{title|The Binding Blade}}.

* The Hero is the only class in ''Gaiden'' and ''Shadows of Valentia'' that wields two physical non-monster weapon types.
*The Hero is the only class in ''Gaiden'' and ''Shadows of Valentia'' that wields two physical non-monster weapon types.
**Additionally, in ''Gaiden'', the Hero is the only class to have a base [[luck]] stat that is not 0.
*Although Heroes share the same idle stance as the [[Trickster]] class in ''Three Houses'' while wielding a sword, their attack animations are distinctly different from the latter. This contrasts towards other classes that share the same attack animations and idle stance while wielding certain weapons such as the [[Swordmaster]] and [[Mortal Savant]] class.
*Although the Hero class does not appear in {{title|Warriors: Three Hopes}}, generic NPC Heroes can be seen in the [[Base Camp]] in all three routes. This is likely due to the class being scrapped late into development.

Skill(s)

The Hero (Japanese: 勇者 Hero) is an advanced infantry class which debuted in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light and is present in almost all subsequent games, acting as the promoted form of the Mercenary in most of its appearances. It is absent in Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776, in which its role as the promoted class for the Sword Fighter is filled by two functionally identical classes: the Forrest in the former, and the Mercenary in the latter. In addition to its usual role as a normal class, the Hero has twice served as a Lord-like class exclusive to the protagonist of a game: it is Alm's promoted class in Gaiden and its remake, Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, and Ike's second-tier initial class in Radiant Dawn. Additionally, it exists as a class exclusive to the NPC Greil in Path of Radiance, unavailable to the player.

Ever since Genealogy of the Holy War, the Hero (or its substitutes) has acted as a counterpart and opposite to the Swordmaster class: compared to Swordmasters, Heroes trade some skill and speed for greater strength and slightly improved HP and defense. As such, they typically make for superior front-line units, capable of dealing very substantial damage while being durable enough to survive bombardment in the enemy phase. As with most other physically-oriented units, however, the class's resistance is lacking on average.

Traditionally, the Hero is the promoted form of the Mercenary, although variations on this exist. The Sacred Stones, Awakening, and Fates give Mercenaries a secondary alternative to Heroes, the Ranger and Bow Knight respectively, while also allowing Fighters to promote to Hero; Fighters also promote to Hero in Gaiden and Shadows of Valentia, with both being Alm's personal classes. Heroes do not promote from anything in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, and in the latter as Ike's initial class it has a third-tier promoted form, the Vanguard. In Engage, Heroes instead promote from Sword Fighters, who are allowed to choose between two different variants—one that uses lances as its sidearm, the other using axes—depending on the unit's weapon proficiencies.

Trivia

  • Until Awakening and before Three Houses, the Mercenary/Hero line was almost exclusively male, with only four exceptions: Malice in Archanea Saga, Creidne in Genealogy of the Holy War (as a Forrest), Machyua in Thracia 776, and Echidna in The Binding Blade.
  • The Hero is the only class in Gaiden and Shadows of Valentia that wields two physical non-monster weapon types.
    • Additionally, in Gaiden, the Hero is the only class to have a base luck stat that is not 0.
  • Although Heroes share the same idle stance as the Trickster class in Three Houses while wielding a sword, their attack animations are distinctly different from the latter. This contrasts towards other classes that share the same attack animations and idle stance while wielding certain weapons such as the Swordmaster and Mortal Savant class.
  • Although the Hero class does not appear in Warriors: Three Hopes, generic NPC Heroes can be seen in the Base Camp in all three routes. This is likely due to the class being scrapped late into development.
