The '''Missiletainn''' (ミステルトィン ''Misuterutin'', '''Mysteltinn''' in the Japanese version) is a personal [[Sword]] that hails from ''[[Fire Emblem: Awakening]]'', and is bound to [[Owain]]. Its description refers to it as an "apocryphal brand?" referring to its questionable authenticity. The NPC who gives Owain the sword in his [[Scion of Legend|recruitment chapter]] notably refers to it as a common blade, indicating that the sword itself probably draws its strength from Owain's fondness of it. The sword's name is a play on the pronunciation of the legendary demon blade, [[Mystletainn]].
   
Missiletainn plays a fairly significant role in [[Scion of Legend|Paralogue 5]], where Owain, while on a quest to locate the legendary [[Mystletainn]], is drawn to the [[Sage's Hamlet]] after hearing tell of the blade having surfaced in said location. The blade in question turns out to be but a cheap replica of the actual weapon and although its status as a common blade is made known to Owain by the Sage who gives it to him, he insists on referring to it as if it were the Mystletainn. The dubious authenticity of Missiletainn is further compounded by the fact that the name of the weapon itself is a homophone of Mystletainn, alongside its in-game description referring to it as an "apocryphal brand".

The Missiletainn (ミステルトィン Misuterutin, Mysteltinn in the Japanese version) is a personal Sword that hails from Fire Emblem: Awakening, and is bound to Owain. Its description refers to it as an "apocryphal brand?" referring to its questionable authenticity. The NPC who gives Owain the sword in his recruitment chapter notably refers to it as a common blade, indicating that the sword itself probably draws its strength from Owain's fondness of it. The sword's name is a play on the pronunciation of the legendary demon blade, Mystletainn.

Trivia

  • Missiletainn may be a reference to Excalipoor, a recurring joke weapon from the Final Fantasy series. Like Excalipoor, Missiletainn is a misspelled version of a powerful legendary weapon (Mystletainn/Excalibur), and is mistaken for the real thing by an enthusiastic weapon collector (Owain/Gilgamesh).
  • Missiletainn is the only character-specific weapon in Awakening to provide a bonus to a specific stat.
