The Shaman is a combat magical class that is introduced in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade and later becoming a mainstay class in The Blazing Blade and The Sacred Stones. The class uses Dark magic and eventually promotes into the Druid class. In The Sacred Stones, Shamans are further given the alternative option of promoting into Summoners. In the spin-off Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE the Shaman class returns as an enemy exclusive class of Mirage. The weaker variant, Dark Shaman, appears in Illusory Shibuya, with a notable Dark Shaman Mirage serving as Director of the possessed Barry Goodman's concert and later Dark Yashiro's concert in Illusory Daitou TV, while a stronger variant, Red Shaman, appears in Illusory Daiba Studio.
