Medals

Medals A Medal for Kurt. Spent along with Crystals to level up the related disciple. Earned as story rewards, etc.

Type Item First game Fire Emblem Shadows

Medals (Japanese: の勲章 Medal of) are a type of item appearing exclusively in Fire Emblem Shadows. Medals are used alongside Crystals to raise the levels of disciples. Unlike Crystals, Medals are specific to a given character, and cannot be used interchangeably.

Medals distributed for the daily Log-In Bonus are part of a regular "Repost and Level Up!" social media campaign held on X and Facebook. For both special events and repost campaigns, Medals for single disciple are given out each day for one week at a time until switching to the next, though featured disciples are also announced in advance.

Use

Medals and Crystals are used to raise the level of the characters, with each subsequent level needing more resources.
