Lodestar
| ||||||
|
The Lodestar (Japanese: スターロード Star Lord) is a special Lord-like class debuting in Fire Emblem Awakening. It is a personal class exclusive to all bonus-character versions of Marth: both SpotPass versions and the downloadable content version in Awakening, and the amiibo version in Fates. In Awakening, it is capable of wielding the Rapier, Noble Rapier and all three Falchion variations, like the game's actual Lord characters; in Fates, it loses access to the Parallel Falchion, which is instead locked to Lucina.

Trivia
- In Awakening, the Lodestar shares its battle model and map sprite with Lucina's version of the Lord class, which itself is meant to be dressed as Marth in the first place.
- The card game Fire Emblem Cipher uses the Lodestar as Marth's promoted class, since he was unable to to promote in his own games but the mechanics of Cipher require that he is able to promote.

Lodestar |
Literally speaking, a lodestar is an actual star used as a navigational reference. Metaphorically speaking, a lodestar is a guiding principle, like Marth's influence on the future of Archanea. Additionally, "lodestar" is phonetically similar to an inversion of the syllables of "Star Lord", the class's Japanese name. |
Spanish |
Polaris |
From Polaris, the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor, which was historically used as a literal lodestar in world navigation. |
