Sacred Weapons (神聖武器, Shinsei Buki) are a group of Legendary Weapons from the Fódlan Series. They can be wielded by anyone, but their innate healing powers are enhanced when used by someone with the associated Crest.

Profile[]

According to legend, Macuil of the Four Saints was said to be an excellent blacksmith, more skilled with his hands than the rest of his brethren. He used his smithing skills to forge many sacred weapons for use by Seiros' army: he even used some of these weapons himself, and was said to be a formidable combatant second only to Saint Seiros herself. Some of these weapons were also used by his fellow saints Cethleann, Cichol, and Indech during the War of Heroes.

However, it is revealed in Three Hopes that most of the sacred weapons were actually created by both Indech and Macuil, with Indech forging the weapons and Macuil imbuing them with power. In the present day, many of these sacred weapons can be found scattered across the region of Fódlan. Certain sacred weapons have remained in use by different individuals, while others remain hidden and guarded.

In Three Houses, Sacred Weapons differ from the Heroes' Relics in that they can safely be used by anyone, but require an A level of skill to be usable. When equipped with a Sacred Weapon, the user will heal HP at the start of every turn, and the effect will increase if the user bears the matching Crest. The increase is greater for users with a Major Crest than those with a Minor Crest or Dragon Sign.

In Three Hopes, Sacred Weapons retain their ability to heal their wielder, the amount of which they heal is dependent on if a unit has a corresponding Major Crest, Minor Crest, or Dragon Sign. Due to how certain characters start off with a Sacred Weapon upon recruitment and the fact they are semi-personal weapons, they have been demoted to Rank E weapons. Much like the Heroes' Relics, Sacred Weapons can have their effects unleashed at the Base Camp's blacksmith, and while doing so greatly increases their base Might and Durability, only a few get unique unleashed effects, most of which that do are the Accessories; additionally, weapon-type Sacred Weapons do not get as much bonus Might or Durability as Relics. A uniform unleashed effect the Sacred Weapons have is "Divine Glow", which greatly increases their continuous healing ability.
