TheMage Fighter (Japanese:マージファイターMage Fighter) is anadvancedclass exclusive toFire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. It possesses access toswords as well asfire,thunder, andwind magic; additionally, female Mage Fighters can usestaves. It is thepromoted class forThunder Mages,Wind Mages, and femaleMages, with male Mages instead becoming Mage Knights.

Despite being a mixed physical–magical weaponry class, the Mage Fighter is far more offensively adept with tomes than it is with swords due to a higher magic stat and lower sword rank, and the female variant also has higher resistance than defense. Compared to the Mage Knight, it is crippled by its lessermovement, particularly given the vast nature of the maps ofGenealogy of the Holy War demands higher movement, though the female variant does have the advantage of staff utility.

Mage Fighters are entirely absent fromGenealogy of the Holy War's successor,Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. Presumably, the fact thatMage Knights can nowdismount and temporarily act as infantry units rendered the Mage Fighter redundant.

• Mage Hero
• War Mage

• Used in older versions of theGenealogy of the Holy Warfan translation; the provided rationale is to rename the class after another class that can use swords (Hero), as opposed to it sharing the name of one which cannot (Fighter).
• Used in the "Project Naga" patch. May have been named by analogy with theWar Monk andWar Cleric fromAwakening, which are similar mixed physical–magic infantry classes.

Japanese

マージファイター
魔道剣士

• Mage Fighter, referring to the class's dualmage and physical fighter functionality. Used in gameplay.
• Magic swordsman. Used in the world map narration ofChapter 5.
