Notes

Movement 'mounted' (Cavalry, Rider D proficiency) confirmed by Pocket Tactics, consistent with the existing classes.json value. fireemblemwiki.org's generic Troubadour page (138KB, spans every game the class has appeared in) has no Fortune's Weave mention at all -- FW's Troubadour is also absent from that wiki's own FW class-category footer (seen via the Myrmidon page's navbox), even though Game8 and Pocket Tactics both confirm the class exists in FW -- a gap on the wiki's side, flagged, not treated as evidence the class doesn't exist.
