 * Not related or to be confused with Akaneia's Shield of Seals. For the game sometimes known as Fire Emblem: Sword of Seals go here. For the chapter of the same name, go here.

The Sword of Seals (封印の剣 Sword of the Seal) is the sword wielded by the hero Hartmut alongside the Eckesachs during the Scouring. After defeating Idenn, Hartmut decided to have pity on her and used the sword to seal her in the Fire Emblem. After the war ended the sword was placed in the Shrine of Seals alongside Bramimond and his spell Apocalypse. Later, the sword would be unsealed by Roy and used to defeat Zephiel and a revived Idenn.

It is Roy's weapon of choice in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and more damage is done at the center of the sword.

The critical animation of the melee attack is noticeable with the distinctive flame appearing out of the sword when Roy initiates the attack. The ranged critical animation, however, is hard to tell because Roy shoots off the flame from his blade in both cases and the only way to tell that the attack is critical is from the distinctive critical "clash" sound.
