Queen (Japanese:クィーン,女王Queen) is the name of several separate classes appearing in theFire Emblem series. Each one occupies a position of royalty, and few units ever use this class.

InGenealogy of the Holy War, the Queen class is a very rare class exclusively used by two units;Hilda, Queen of Friege, and Indra, the arena champion ofChapter 10. The class usesfire,thunder, andwind magic, as well asstaves.

InThe Sacred Stones, it is a class exclusive toIsmaire as an NPC, the queen ofJehanna, inChapter 14 of Eirika's route. It is only present for a single turn, as Ismaire is taken away at the start of the first enemy phase, and she uses theSwordmaster class in theCreature Campaign.

The latest appearance of the class is inRadiant Dawn, as the personal class ofElincia, crowned queen after the events ofPath of Radiance, in which she used thePrincess Crimea class. She wieldsswords and staves, and flies on a pegasus, which gives her theCanto skill; additionally, it is counted as a third-tier class, with the special skillStun. Generally Elincia as a queen is a fairly strong fighter, but surely not excellent in combat.

The flexibility of the "Queen" name lends itself not to its role in gameplay but its role in storylines.Fire Emblem, being a fantasy series, often includes the conflicts of warring kingdoms, most of which are monarchies; as such, the existence of the Queen class is often necessary for narrative scenes and battle.

Trivia

• In the coding of the English release ofFire Emblem: The Blazing Blade, there are two unused classes known as "Queen." Both are unused, though it later appears inFire Emblem: The Sacred Stones asIsmaire's NPC class. InThe Blazing Blade it presumably would have belonged toHellene orEleanora, though Hellene never appears on a map, and Eleanora instead is aBishop. The other queen is mistranslated, being "Princess" in the Japanese version, that most likely would have been used byGuinivere. Queen (女王joō) and princess (王女ōjo) are very similar in Japanese, just with the kanji switched around.
  • In the Japanese version ofThe Sacred Stones, the second "Queen" class, which was called "Princess" (王女) inThe Blazing Blade, is called "Queen" (女王) instead, and shares the same help description.
