The '''Saint''' (Japanese: {{hl|聖者|Seisha}} ''Saint'') is an advanced magical [[class]] which was introduced in {{FE2}}. In ''Gaiden'' and its remake, {{title|Echoes: Shadows of Valentia}}, it is the [[class change|promoted]] form of the [[Cleric]], available only to women, and primarily emphasizes [[white magic]] with access to [[black magic]]. In {{FE10}}, it is a rare [[:Category:Third-tier advanced classes|third-tier promoted class]] and the final stage in the class change line for the [[Priest]], and is now a gender-neutral class. Promoting from the [[Bishop]] class, it uses both [[light magic]] and [[Staff|staves]].

Saints are designed to mainly take advantage of supporting their allies from behind the front lines through their white magic/staves. Their most outstanding feature is their exceptionally high [[resistance]], the strongest of their stats; they also possess high [[Magic (stat)|magic]] and good [[Skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]], ensuring that if necessary they are competent fighters in and of themselves. However, their [[HP]] and [[defense]] are lacking like most magical classes, rendering them frail and vulnerable to physical assaults even compared to other magical classes.

 

In {{title|Three Houses}}, the Saint instead acts as an enemy-exclusive class used only by [[Rhea]] in the Crimson Flower route, where it serves as a stronger version of her other personal class, the [[Archbishop]].

*{{title|Gaiden}}: At the beginning of each [[turn]], a Saint will restore 5 [[HP]] to any allies standing adjacent to her.

*The Saint is one of only five playable classes in ''Radiant Dawn'' whose members can achieve multiple [[Weapon level|SS ranks]]. The others are the [[Light Priestess]], [[Vanguard]], [[Chancellor]] and [[Black Knight (class)|Black Knight]]. Of these classes, the Saint is the only one which is not exclusive to a single character.

*In {{title|Three Houses}}, the class sprite meant for the Saint class goes [[Unused content in Fire Emblem: Three Houses|unused]] for unknown reasons as the game reuses the [[Archbishop]] class' sprite instead.
