Revenant
| ||||||
|
TheRevenant (Japanese:ゾンビZombie) is one of the more commonmonster classes appearing in theFire Emblem series. They are animatehuman corpses. InGaiden, Revenants internally useswords but never appear holding an item; inThe Sacred Stones,Awakening, andEchoes: Shadows of Valentia, they use monster weapons, such asRotten Claw and the more powerfulFetid Claw. In rare cases, they carry theLethal Talon, which causes poison.
Revenants are one of the weaker enemy only classes. Their only useful asset is their high HP, but their low defense means they will be quickly defeated regardless. Otherwise, all of their other stats are extremely low. This means they will rarely hit, usually only attack once, and do little damage. Even theirmovement is below average at four spaces, though this is increased to five inAwakening, the average movement stat for a base class.
Since they are enemy-only units, their class change details are unknown. Theentombed anddracul classes can be considered stronger versions of them.
