Astra (Skill)

Astra (also known as Shooting Star [流星 Ryūsei] or Shooting Star Sword [りゅうせい剣 Ryūsei ken] in the Japanese versions and Astrum in the European version of Radiant Dawn) is a skill introduced in Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu, allowing the user to perform five consecutive strikes, and is also linked to Isaac's royal family. This skill is also known as Dragon Saint (竜聖の技 Ryūsei no waza) in TearRing Saga: Utna Heroes Saga.

In Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, the skill returns as the Occult skill of the Swordmaster class, but downgraded each attack to deal only half of the intended damage to the enemy. It appears once again in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, where the promotion of a Swordmaster to the Trueblade class will result in this skill being bestowed upon the user, granting him/her the chance to perform a series of five consecutive strikes at full damage.

The possibility of an enemy unit dodging individual Astra strikes is made possible in all the games the skill appears in.
