** There is only one enemy unit each from the Rogue and Wyvern Knight classes in the entire game; those being Rennac and Valter respectively. The lack of generic enemy rogues and wyvern knights is due to their skills; generic enemy thieves can already steal from chests, making the use of generic rogues unnecessary, while the Pierce skill exclusive to wyvern knights makes surviving a hit from a generic one too difficult, especially if a unit already has low defense. The former can be recruited by either letting L'arachel persuade him or have Eirika/Ephraim pay him 9,980 gold, while the latter is available in Creature Campaign as a bonus.
