The '''Whisper''' (Japanese: {{ruby|{{Hover|密偵|Mittei}}|{{Hover|エスピオン|Esupion}}}} ''Espion'') is a [[:Category:Third-tier advanced classes|third-tier advanced]] infantry [[class]] which is exclusive to {{FE10}}. It is the [[Class change|promoted]] form of the [[Rogue]] class, and is accordingly the hypothetical final form of the non-playable [[Thief]] class. Like their predecessors, Whispers continue to exclusively wield [[knife|knives]] and to have the unique ability to unlock doors and [[chest]]s without without relying on the limited [[durability]] of [[Chest Key|keys]].

Whispers continue the same style of gameplay of their preceding classes, with their time much better spent avoiding combat in favor of performing unlocking duties. Their [[skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]] stats are both extremely high, with their speed and the low [[weight (weapon)|weight]] of their knives also giving them a very high [[avoid]] rate, and their immense speed also allows them to make good use of their [[Steal]] skill on enemies' items. However, their poor [[strength]] and defensive stats leave them very unsuited to combat, even with their high avoid, so their offensive ability goes no further than being able to fend off enemy attacks if they absolutely have to.

*The Japanese and NTSC-U help description erroneously states that the Whisper's Bane skill incapacitates an enemy. The Bane skill does reduce an enemy to 1 HP with a single strike, but it does not technically incapacitate them.

== Etymology and other languages ==

|jap-name={{ruby|{{Hover|密偵|Mittei}}|{{Hover|エスピオン|Esupion}}}}

|jap-mean=Officially romanized as '''Espion''', literally "spy". In ''Radiant Dawn'', all Japanese class names are spelled primarily in kanji (i.e. {{Hover|密偵|Mittei}}), with a foreign-language name in katakana applied as [[wikipedia:Furigana|furigana]] (i.e. {{Hover|エスピオン|Esupion}}) and used as the basis for the romanized name in the class roll.<br>''Espion'' is the French word for spy, and the root of the modern English word "espionage", or the act of spying.
