Mage

Mages are units who use magic attacks. They use anima magic in Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken and Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones but use wind, fire, and thunder attacks in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. They upgrade to sages or (In Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones) Mage Knights. They have good speed, magic, and resistance but poor defense and strength. They generally serve better from the back row.
