In {{FE4}}, Shamans are a female-exclusive class which wields [[light (magic)|light magic]] and [[staff (magic)|staves]]. While they are very frail, they possess the high [[magic (stat)|magic]] and [[resistance]] of traditional healers, giving them good healing proficiency as well as the ability to defend themselves, particularly with [[Nosferatu]]. Aside from [[Deirdre]], who is unable to promote, Shamans [[Class change|promote]] to the [[Sage]] class. While Shamans do not technically exist in the following game, {{FE5}}, that game has the virtually identical [[Cleric]] class.

The Shaman's final appearance to date is in the three [[Game Boy Advance]] games, where it is an offensive magical class available to any gender which only wields [[Dark (magic)|dark magic]]. These Shamans are a precursor to the modern [[Dark Mage]] class and, like Dark Mages, are a stark contrast to the nimble [[Mage]]s: they have fearsome magical offense further enhanced by the raw power of dark tomes, but in exchange they have low base [[speed]] and are weighed down even more by their heavy tomes. Their defenses are also slightly better than those of ordinary Mages, but are still mediocre which, combined with how easy it is to double-attack Shamans, leaves them better equipped to attack at range from behind the front lines. Shamans promote to the [[Druid]] class, and in {{title|The Sacred Stones}}, they also have the option to promote to [[Summoner]] instead]].
