|
Caladbolg (Japanese: カラドボルグ Caladbolg) is a regalia sword which is present only in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. It is the personal weapon of Edward of the Dawn Brigade.
History
Caladbolg is one of the three national treasures of the Kingdom of Daein, along with Lughnasadh and Tarvos. It spent years in storage in Daein's vaults, waiting for a worthy bearer. It was entrusted to Edward by King Pelleas for use in the Daein army's campaign against the Laguz Alliance, and he had his general Micaiah deliver it to Edward.[1]

Other appearances
Fire Emblem Cipher
Caladbolg is present as a skill on one of Edward's cards in Fire Emblem Cipher: B05-057R Cheerful Swordmaster, Edward. It is a Level S Skill which becomes permanently active if Edward is in a stack of 4 or more cards. When active, Edward receives a +10 attack boost on top of the attack boosts gained from his other two skills.
Notably, Caladbolg's appearance on this card is its first appearance in Japanese Fire Emblem material.

Trivia
- As with Lughnasadh and Tarvos, Caladbolg was created specifically for the international releases of Radiant Dawn, and is not present in any form in the Japanese version. They are the only items in the entire series to be added in localization in this way. Caladbolg was later reintroduced into Japanese Fire Emblem material by Cipher.
