The Assassin (アサシン, Asashin or 暗殺者, Anatsusha) class is a class of swift swordsmen who kill with fast strikes. They are usually the promoted form of the Thief class. They often have a critical hit bonus coupled with high skill, speed, and luck, which gives them many critical hits. Assassins first appeared in Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade; they have appeared in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.

Assassins are a class often based on luck. As stated above, they typically have very high skill, speed, and luck. However, they often have low strength and slightly low defense. Along with their high critical hit rate, with a +25% chance in Radiant Dawn, they dodge most enemy attacks. In The Sacred Stones, they have the Silencer skill, which will certainly kill an enemy under certain conditions; in Path of Radiance, Radiant Dawn, and Awakening, they have the Lethality skill, which also kills an enemy at a certain chance.

Although they promote from thieves, in Blazing Sword and The Sacred Stones, they cannot steal from enemies. They can still use lockpicks to open doors and chests. In Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, they keep the ability to steal after promoting.

Assassins generally have low defense and resistance. In Blazing Sword, thieves change class to assassins. In The Sacred Stones and Awakening, either thieves or myrmidons can become assassins. In Path of Radiance, only the thief Volke can change class to an assassin; Sothe cannot promote. In Radiant Dawn, the assassin is a single class.
