Pirates are axe-wielding units that usually promote into Berserkers.
Pirates have many similar stats to other axe wielders. They have characteristically high attack, and somewhat low defense, although not to the same extreme as the regular axe fighter. They are called physical wrecking balls, with high Strength and HP but they have low defense and horrible Resistance, they also sometimes have a lack of skill which can also be a problem.
Pirate's most notable characteristic is their ability to walk across water covered spaces. In the story this is often called 'swimming', although they still have full use of their wepons and other items while in/on water. This ability can make the pirate unit quite useful as the only other units able to cross water are flying units with their own weaknesses. However, when crossing water, a pirates movement is greatly decreased.
They can only promote to Berserker in Fire Emblem: Fūin no Tsurugi and in Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken. In Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, they can also promote to the Warrior-class, given the ability to use Bows as well Axes, but they will no longer move on water.
In the most recent Fire Emblem games such as Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, the class overlaps with the Brigand class, which has gained the pirate's ability to swim.
Pirates, like brigands, can destroy villages when they are an enemy unit.
