The **Transformation Belt Holy Sword Swordriver**, or simply **Swordriver**, is the transformation device used by Power Rider Story Keeper, Power Rider Roaring Wave, and Power Rider Thunder Slash who use it with the Flame Sword Raging Fire, Water Current Sword Flowing Water, and Thunderclap Sword Yellow Thunder, respectively.

## Design

The Holy Sword Swordriver is composed of the following parts:

* **Fantaright Shelf** - The right-hand slot to store the Fragment Tale on the Swordriver. In addition to bringing out the power from the Fragment Tale, which has a good compatibility with the Divine Beasts, and transmitting it to the Hply Sword, it brings various abilities to the right half or "Ride Right" of the body that strongly influences the sword technique of the swordsman's "Holy Robe" armor.
* **Creatumid Shelf** - The middle slot to store the Fragment Tale on the Swordriver. In addition to bringing out the power from the Fragment Tale, which has a good compatibility with the Creatures, and transmitting it to the Holy Sword, it brings various abilities to the central "Ride Mid" of the body, which enhances the physical ability of the swordsman's "Holy Robe" armor.
* **Histoleft Shelf** - The left-hand slot to store the Fragment Tale on the Swordriver. In addition to bringing out the power from the Fragment Tale, which has a good affinity with the Stories, and transmitting it to the Holy Sword, it brings various abilities to the left side or "Ride Left" of the body that strongly affects the activation of the special ability of the swordsman's "Holy Robe" armor.
* **Inscribe Generator** - The Swordriver's energy generator. It is responsible for extracting the energy of all the Shinra enclaves included in the Fragment Tale and generating "Fragment Energy."
* **Reading Scanner**  - The circuit-like pathways to the slots that hold Fragment Tales. Tells the Holy Sword the abilities of the Fragment Tale read by the Holy Sword Swordriver.
* **Holy Belt** - the Swordriver's sword belt. It is usually stored in the main body, but when transformed, it is automatically deployed and fixed to the waist of the user. After that, in response to the awakening of the Holy Sword, it plays the role of deploying the "Holy Robe", the armor of the swordsman.

*To be added*

### Transformation

To transform, the user simply plugs a Fragment Tale into its corresponding slot on the belt before pulling out the sword.
Each Rider's transformation slightly differs:

* **Power Rider Story Keeper**: Story Keeper appears in a library surrounded by flames. He makes two slashes in the shape of an X before a dragon released from the Fragment Tale covers him and forms armor, with the energy emitted from said slashes forming the rest of the helmet, completing the transformation. For Dragon Lamp, Story Keeper performs his own "X" slash first before performing Thunder Slash's vertical uppercut slash.
	+ Transforming with two books results in the books appearing the same way as if transforming with one, Story Keeper being in a library surrounded by fire, with the effects of the additional book being included in the transformation, resulting in additional armor equipped to the section the book affects.
* **Power Rider Roaring Wave**: Roaring Wave appears in a library surrounded by surging water. A water-based lion emerges from the book, and then circles him after making one horizontal slash, before the lion merges with him to form armor, and the energy emitted from the slash forming the visor, completing the transformation.
* **Power Rider Thunder Slash**: Thunder Slash appears in a library surrounded by lightning. He performs a single vertical uppercut slash before a genie released from the Fragment Tale circles him and forms armor, with the slash forming the visor, completing the transformation.
* When more than one Rider transforms at the same time the design of the library background and the associated element tied to the transformation will be divided within the area in which each Rider stands.

### Finisher

*Main article: Finisher (Story Keeper)*
There are five ways to activate a finisher with the Swordriver:

1. Pull the trigger on the sword twice while it's docked into the belt.
2. Pull the trigger on the sword and pull it out of the buckle.
3. Remove one of the books, and scan it against the sword's tip while it's deployed. The scanning can be done up to three times.
4. Dock the sword into the left-hand side Must-Read Holder before pulling the trigger on the sword, and pulling it back out.
5. Pressing the left page of the Fragment Tale.

## Behind the Scenes

### Portrayal

The Holy Sword Swordriver is voiced by Peter Daube, who has voiced several monsters of the week in *Power Rangers*, including Sculpin in *Mystic Force*, Boxertron in *Beast Morphers*, and several others. The vocal section is provided by Doug Rockwell. Scarlett Johansson provides additional voicing when Feeling-Charged Dragon is being used.

## Notes

* Users of a Holy Sword have armor similar to past Rider forms:
	+ A base form with elements leaning towards their main motif (Power Rider Dragon Knight)
	+ The main part of their transformation provides additional armor over their base (Power Rider Citrus Slasher)
	+ The base form's armor usually remains unaffected, while the extra layer provides both additional defenses to the upper body and accents to the helmet (Power Rider Ghost)
	+ Mix-and-match options exist for each trinket (Power Rider Medal Scrambler/Power Rider DNA)
