The former FE13 screenshot is a mediocre-quality one I took from a pre-release video, so this is replacing it with a clearer Miiverse one.

The '''Sage''' ({{hover|賢者|Kenja}} ''Sage'') is an [[:Category:Advanced classes|advanced]] magical [[class]] which debuted in {{FE2}}, and is the main [[Class change|promoted]] form of the [[Mage]] class in most games since.  Sages wield offensive magic, primarily focusing on [[anima (magic)|anima magic]] and [[fire (magic)|its]] [[thunder (magic)|three]] [[wind (magic)|subtypes]], almost always with the addition of [[staff (magic)|staves]].  The class is split into three magic type-specific variants in {{FE10}} - the [[Fire Sage]], [[Wind Sage]] and [[Thunder Sage]] - as well as two character-specific variants, the [[Light Sage]] and [[Dark Sage]], exclusive to [[Micaiah]] and [[Pelleas]] respectively.

In contrast to the healing proficiency of the [[Bishop]] and the defensive capabilities of the [[Druid]]/[[Sorcerer]], the Sage excels at pure magical offense, possessing high [[Magic (stat)|magical power]], [[Skill (stat)|Skill]] and [[Speed]].  They typically have access to a relatively broad spectrum of offensive options, granting them further versatility.  Their main advantage is their ability to take advantage of the low [[Resistance]] of physically-oriented enemies, particularly slower ones like [[General]]s, but in turn they themselves are vulnerable to physical attack as a result of their below-average [[Defense]].

Beginning with its introduction in ''Gaiden'' and in almost every game since, the Sage changes class from the [[Mage]], replacing the [[Bishop]]'s original role as being the advanced form of the Mage; the only exception is {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}}, in which it instead promotes from the [[Bard]] and [[Shaman]].  In {{title|Thracia 776}}, three classes can promote to Sage: Mage, Bard and [[Cleric]].  In ''The Sacred Stones'', the Sage is a promotion option for Mages, [[Monk]]s and [[Priest]]s, and in ''Awakening'', it is a promotion option for Mages, Priests and Clerics.
