Thief Fighter

Thief fighters are a curious case. For a brief stint in Fire Emblem history, they served as the long-awaited promote class for Thieves who for several titles, received no promotions.

Essentially, they were thieves who, while still having the main job of stealing items/money, now had the ability to not only properly defend themselves, but even fare well in some offensive situations

For some unexplained reason, they were retired after Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 and thieves in later titles promoted to either assassins or rogues

Combat
Thief Fighters are well-rounded fighters compared to their weaker predecessors. If they stick to cover, they can very well take down even the toughest of opponents
