Excalibur Mimic

**Excalibur Mimic**, also known as the **Holy Sword of Mimicry**, is one of the seven most powerful holy swords created in the Excalibur Project. It has the power to transform into different kinds of swords.

## Summary

Excalibur Mimic is one of the seven most powerful holy swords created by the Christian Faction after the Great War through a combination of advanced thaumaturgy by those with magic powers that reached the territory of the gods and antediluvian technology in an attempt to recreate the "true" holy swords created by Heaven.

After the Excalibur Project had ended, the sword was given to the Protestant Church along with another holy sword bearing the name [Excalibur] - The Excalibur Nightmare.

In 20XX, when news of the other Excalibur swords were "stolen" by Kokabiel, the sword and its current wielder, Irina Shidou, was sent to retrieve the stolen swords from the fallen angel and his men. However, it was later stolen by Freed Sellzen and partially fused into a singular sword along with Nightmare, Transparency, and Rapidly. After Kokabiel was defeated, Irina took it along with the other Excalibur swords back to the Vatican to be properly repaired.

When Xenovia's holy sword Durandal was given to the Vatican to be repaired, the Excalibur Mimic, along with five other Excalibur swords, was taken back to Heaven to be reforged into powerful Enochian swords. Though, for unknown reasons, copies of their original forms were made and fused into Durandal under the orders of Raziel, who said it was a "gift" from the angels.

## Appearance

Because of its special power, Excalibur Mimic can take on numerous forms of both deadly weapons and ordinary objects alike. However, in its base form, the sword appears as a greatsword made of darkened steel, with numerous angelic runes engraved upon the blade and the hilt bound in old leather.

## Abilities

As a named holy sword, Excalibur Mimic is a powerful holy sword capable of vanquishing dark and/or demonic creatures regardless of their origins. It is considered to be one of the "prime" Excalibur swords, seven most powerful holy swords to be created in the Excalibur Project and is the nearest to a "perfect" recreation of the True Excalibur.

True to its name, the sword possesses the power of shapeshifting and can transform itself into numerous forms and appearances, not just that of swords. It can become deadly weapons or household items, artifacts from an archaic era to mankind's most advanced technology, or handcrafted objects to enchanted items. As long as the desired form can be wielded by the wielder and remains within the realms of logic or physics, the sword can most likely change into said form.

In addition to its shapeshifting power, the sword can change the properties of matter, including the density, color, shape, hardness, etc. The wielder can make things harder/stronger or weaker/more brittle, turn gas into solid, make metal stretch and rubber break as glass, or make things hotter than the sun or "so cold that it burns". They can also make things as corrosive, to dissolve different matter, combustible, to make things explosive, or inert, which allows them to diffuse bombs by making the material inside no longer explosive even after mixing.

Skilled and experienced wielders can push the boundary of this power even further, giving them control over their or others' attributes, be it physical, mental, spiritual, or condition. They can make their own condition from as weak as not being able to pick up a pebble on the ground to as strong as having them be able to move entire trucks with ease, as slow as to fail catching up with a snail to as fast as moving at the speed of light, etc.

Because of this, the wielder can also alter or transform matter, energy, elements, objects, etc. into anything else, either completely or partially, permanently or temporarily. However, this transmutation isn't always successful, as if the target's magical power is strong enough, they can block the sword's powers and even reflect it back at the wielder.

In addition, due to the scraps of divine metals embedded into the sword during its reforge, it becomes an Enochian sword and can be used to kill virtually all beings in existence.

## Trivia

* Despite not knowing about the reforge, Irina was able to notice the "Excalibur Mimic" imbued in Durandal was fake based on her own experience with the holy sword.
* Like the remaining Excalibur swords reforged by the Fifth Heaven, a feather from a member of the Heavenly Council is sealed within the hilt. In its case, the feather belonged to Zadkiel, Elder Seraph of Freedom and Mercy.
