The Kitsune (Japanese: 妖狐 Youko) is a basic, Hoshido-aligned class which was introduced in Fire Emblem Fates. It is a non-human shapeshifting class which uses beaststones to take the form of a mystical fox in battle.

Kitsune promote to the Nine-Tails class, and their Nohrian counterpart is the Wolfskin. Enemy kitsune, along with their promoted form and their Nohrian counterparts, are among the few playable classes whose generic enemy members are not capturable.
