Bow

First game

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones

Nidhogg (ニーズヘッグ, Niisuheggu) is one of the Sacred Twins of Magvel. This bow and its sister weapon, the winged lance Vidofnir, are the national treasures of Frelia and formidable weapons against monsters. Sealed together with Frelia's Sacred Stone centuries ago, they are entrusted to Eirika and Ephraim while marching to Rausten, so they can be used against the Demon King once more.

After several games, Nidhogg returns in Awakening, with a higher bonus to Luck.
