First game

Fire Emblem Gaiden

The Blessed Sword (Japanese: 聖なる剣 Holy Sword) is a sword which was introduced in Fire Emblem Gaiden. In Gaiden and its remake, Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, it is designed to fight Terrors and is highly effective against them, although its low might makes it weak against any other type of enemy. It also heals a small amount of its user's hit points every turn.

In Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, the Blessed Sword is one of two personal weapons belonging to Olwen, the other being Dire Thunder, and has a completely different function from Gaiden. In addition to being effective against cavalry, it is also a brave weapon and gives Olwen numerous stat and skill bonuses.
