Arcwind (Japanese: ギガウインド Gigawind) is a potent wind tome which debuted in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn and is present only in it and Awakening. As a counterpart to Arcfire, Arcthunder and Shine, it acts as the game's third "stage" of wind magic, superior to Wind and Elwind and surpassed in turn by Tornado and Rexcalibur.
