The Child (Japanese: 子供 Child) class is a NPC class in the Fire Emblem series that first appeared in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade. They appear primarily in cutscenes in The Binding Blade and its prequel, The Blazing Blade, but make one gameplay appearance: in Chapter 21E/22H, where a variation of it is used by Nils while he is unconscious. Children make more regular appearances on maps in Path of Radiance; in other games, child Civilians are used for the same purpose.

Stats

Note: Both male and female variations of the Child class exist separately in the coding for all three games that they appear; in The Binding Blade and Path of Radiance, however, both variations are statistically identical.
