TheThunder Sage (Japanese:雷の賢者サンダーセイジThunder Sage) is anadvanced magicalclass which is exclusive toFire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. The class is one ofRadiant Dawn's element-specialized versions of theSage class of otherFire Emblem series games, along with theFire Sage,Wind Sage,Light Sage andDark Sage. It is thepromoted form of theThunder Mage class, and as its name suggests, it specializes inthunder magic while also being able to usefire magic andwind magic. Thunder Sages, in turn, promote to theArch Sage class.

The class's stats are very similar to the other Sage classes ofRadiant Dawn, with highmagic,skill andspeed, and as a result the class's members deal in pure magical offense. A Thunder Sage's mastery of fire magic also allows them to be particularlyeffective againstdragon tribelaguz and members of theDracoknight class family. However, like all Sage variants, they are frail owing to their lowHP anddefense.
