The only way they can earn experience is by being attacked by an enemy (even if the enemy misses).
Also, the player cannot purchase a weapon or item at a store and send it directly into storage, meaning that characters carrying full loads cannot make purchases.
Later games in the series made numerous changes to the gameplay. However, unlike other strategy games, Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light is among the first, if not the first game in the tactical role-playing genre. Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light was one of the earliest games in the turn-based strategy genre on home consoles. Only then will he be able to confront Gharnef and the resurrected Medeus, win the kingdom of Altea back, and rescue his sister. With the help of the Altean knight Jagen, the Talysian Princess Caeda, and others, Marth embarks on a quest to find the sacred sword Falchion and the Fire Emblem that will allow him to wield it. However, after an attack from the neighboring kingdom of Dolhr, in which his father is killed battling the evil priest Gharnef and his sister Elice is taken hostage, Marth is forced to become an exile in the nation of Talys. Marth is prince of Altea and a descendant of Anri, the warrior who slew the dark dragon Medeus.
