Caladbolg
Caladbolg is a sword introduced in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.
History[]
In Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Caladbolg was a sword owned exclusively by Edward given to him by King Pelleas. Caladbolg is a national treasure of Daein, along with Tarvos and Lughnasadh, and is considered a piece of Daein Regalia. Along with its siblings, it was a weapon added in the localizations of the game, and is not present in the Japanese version.
Caladbolg is a very powerful sword, being stronger than a Steel Blade and adding 8 points to Edward's Luck, while also being much lighter and more accurate.
In Fire Emblem Engage, a sword by the same name is owned by Zephia.

Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def+X to unit (X = 25% of foe's Atk at start of combat, -4; max 14; min 5), neutralizes effects that inflict "special cooldown charge -X" on unit, reduces damage by X% skills by 50% (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and grants Special cooldown count -1 to unit before foe's first attack during combat. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, reduces damage from foe's attacks by Y during combat (when foe's attack triggers foe's Special, Y = 16; when foe attack does not trigger foe's Special, Y = 8; excluding area-of-effect Specials), and unit's next attack deals damage = total damage reduced from foe's first attack (by any source, including other skills). Resets at end of combat. |

Etymology[]
Caladbolg is a legendary sword that hails from both Irish and Welsh mythology. In Irish mythology, Caladbolg was the sword of Fergus mac Róich from the Ulster Cycle, and was said to be a two-handed blade that was capable of constructing a circle that resembled a rainbow arc when swung, alongside being imbued with the power to shave the tops of hills and massacre an entire host.
Trivia[]
- Despite not being in the Japanese version of Radiant Dawn, Caladbolg appears as a skill for Edward in Fire Emblem 0 (Cipher).
