Messiah (メサイア Mesaia) is an enemy only white magic spell from Fire Emblem Gaiden that summons several monsters. The summoned monsters strength depends on the level of the caster. This spell costs 1, 2, 4, or 6 HP to cast, and the summoned units will vanish if the caster dies after summoning them.
Different monster types will appear depending on the amount of HP paid. The amount paid cannot be changed to summon different monsters, a unit who knows Messiah will always summon the same monsters.
