Characteristics

Erdrick's sword is the legendary sword originally wielded by the Hero of legend, passed on to their descendants to keep the realm of Alefgard free from evil. It is a one-handed longsword with a golden fuller and hilt that resembles a godbird in flight, set with a red gemstone. The grip appears to be a blue fabric, and the pommel is gold with a red jewel. It was originally known as the Sword of Kings. In some of its appearances, Erdrick's sword must be reforged or refined with Alchemy in order to reach its full potential.
