Nimue Faedrid

**Excalibur Cursed**, or the **Sword of Curses**, is a holy-turned-demonic sword created in the Excalibur Project. It is currently wielded by Nimue Faedrid, an agent of the Grigori.

## Summary

Excalibur Cursed is one of the holy swords created by the Christian Faction after the Great War through a combination of advanced thaumaturgy by magicians whose skills reached the territory of gods and ancient antediluvian technology in an attempt to create the Excalibur of Arthurian legends.

This sword was known to have been the prototype of the Excalibur Ruler, though due to unknown reasons, it was transformed into a demonic sword known for corrupting its wielders with power and turning them into zealots, even by the Church's standard. Because of this, the higher-ranked members of the Vatican had ordered it to be destroyed.

Luckily, before it was destroyed, it was replaced with a false sword and hidden away alongside the Excalibur Ruler by the Pendragon family. Sometimes in the 19th-century, the sword found its first user in the form of Nimue Faedrid, a descendant of the Arthurian witch-queen Morgause le Fay.

## Appearance

Excalibur Cursed has the appearance of an ornate longsword with glowing Celtic *ogham* runes running down the silver blade, with each rune symbolizing an elemental force of nature. When concentrating its demonic power, the user's hands and eyes will turn black.

## Abilities

Despite being a creation of the Christian Faction, Excalibur Cursed is an extremely powerful demonic sword, on-par with demonic swords of legends such as Gram or Dáinsleif which were created by pagan gods. According to Arthur, it is one of the most powerful swords created in the Excalibur Project and is the only demonic sword capable of countering the holy powers of Excalibur Ruler.

At its base, the sword has the power to create, shape, and manipulate the four rudimentary elemental forces of nature (Fire, Water, Earth, and Air), albeit of a much more destructive and demonic nature. The user can create powerful natural phenomena and disasters, such as storms to earthquakes to wildfires, and can use it to create large-scaled cataclysms capable of wiping out entire towns and cities. While wielding the sword, the user's affinity toward Elemental Magic is also extremely increased and they can manipulate the elements almost as easily as breathing.

After its corruption and transformation into a demonic sword, it gains an immensely powerful demonic aura, on-par with Ultimate-class devils or with the Alpha Daemon. It can create concentrated slashes of destructive aura, which is powerful enough to level entire buildings upon contact. According to Nimue, the only way to contain its demonic power is to use a combination of a specialized angelic runes.

It is a powerful conduct for Dark Magic, even considered to be the most powerful "Dark Magic Wand" in the world. It has the power to create, shape, move, interact, and manipulate curses. Its user can manifest curses or cursed artifacts as energy to achieve various effects, and can effectively curse anything and anyone they wish and can even manipulate things that have been cursed to some degree. Despite its demonic nature, it's a very religious sword and would curse those who have gone against the rules and teachings of God in its presence.

## Trivia

* Shortly after Nimue joined the Grigori, Azazel had his sword upgraded into a true Faustian sword.
