Fighter

A Fighter is a robust unit specializing in axes. They tend to have high HP and strength, moderate speed, but with poor defense. They are present in all games in the series.

In the Tellius Series, the Laguz Tigers are, stat wise, the equivalent of a fighter, having the same types of growths.

In the beginning of every game, they can be used to beat enemy Soldiers and Knights more easily.



Promotion
Fighters can't class change in Ankoku Ryū to Hikari no Tsurugi and Monshō no Nazo. In the later games of the series, however, they usually promote to Warriors. In Fire Emblem:The Sacred Stones, they are given the option of promoting into either a Warrior or a Hero, gaining the ability to use swords.

Although named Fighter, Alm's class in Fire Emblem Gaiden is very different from this one, actually being a regular, sword-using class, promoting to Hero. It should be noted that no player units in Gaiden can use axes.
