Other appearances

Fire Emblem Cipher

Shine is present as a skill on one card inFire Emblem Cipher:B05-051SR Priestess of Hope, Micaiah. It is a manual-activation skill which, for a cost of flipping 1 bond, allows the player to draw two other discarded Micaiah cards from the Retreat Area and use them to grow this Micaiah, then draw a card. That drawn card is treated as if it had been leveled up and is allowed to use any Class Change Skills it has.
