Villager (むらびと, Villager) is a playable class introduced in Fire Emblem Gaiden. The members of this class use swords as weapons, and can promote to the Mercenary, Soldier, Archer, Mage, or Cavalier first-tier classes any time after reaching Level 3 by using the appropriate shrine. The advanced class is chosen randomly, although a player can cancel the process as many times as desired. That way, it is possible to actively choose the promotion.
Although weak as a class, the villagers have the potential of leveling infinitely by following the Mercenary path, as the respective third-tier class, Dread Fighter, is able to promote back into this class any time after reaching Level 10.
The class returns in Fire Emblem: Awakening, this time wielding lances similar to a Recruit. They cannot promote this time, but they can reach up to Level 30, though their stat caps are extremely low. Donnel, the playable villager, can use a Second Seal to switch to Mercenary or Fighter, giving him three promotion options; Hero, Bow Knight, and Warrior.

Notes
- Villagers use the same battle animation used by the enemy-only soldier class in Awakening.
- In Awakening, Villagers often seem to take the role of the Civilian in some chapters, they are functionally defenseless allied units that must be protected. The exceptions are Holland, who is an enemy, Donnel, who can be recruited, and Morgan who, if he is Donnel's son, starts as a Villager and can be recruited.
