**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

- *Sunshine*: Sunshine allows Escanor to emit purgatory flames
 which are far hotter than regular flames. They flow out of his body
with an omnidirectional path. Escanor seems to be able to apply these
flames in a certain spot at will seeing as he melted the Vampire King's
head off with them. At Noon which is when Escanor is at his peak in
power flames seem to be uncontrollable or Escanor is unable to actually
make them reside. He can also imbue his sacred treasure Rhitta with
them.

- *Escanor's Curse*: Escanor's strength great increases or
decreases depending on the time of day. At night Escanor is very weak
but still agile. He has to drag his sacred treasure. During the day
Escanor receives a hefty boost in strength all around. His power peaks
at noon and was said be greater than any other Sin. Escanor also seems
to have problems controlling his Sunshine ability when he's at his
peak.

- *Rhitta*: Escanor's Sacred Treasure. Escanor can call Rhitta to his side by what seems to be telekinesis.

* *Holy Armament - Release*: Rhitta's specially ability is to

store the heat Escanor emits from his body and allows him to unleash it
for a devastating attack.
