Swords. Swords are what Shirou does best and the following is a list of legendary and historic weapons Shirou can create from his mind.
Name: Kanshou and Bakuya
Title: ????
Ability: Created by the famous blacksmith Kanshou (aka Gan Jiang), they could only be forged by sacrificing the life of his wife, Bakuya (aka Mo Ye). As a result, the blades are considered inseperable and will never leave each other. When thrown, the blades always return to the owner. Moreover, when magical reinforcement is applied to the blades, they form a new Overedge. These weapons are the swords Shirou uses primarily.
Type: Anti-Unit
Name: Avalon
Title: All Is A Distant Utopia
Ability: Avalon is the scabbard of Excalibur and the promised Utopia King Arthur has always wished to enter. It grants the wielded limited immortality and becomes a personal barrier that absolutely nothing can penetrate. However, these abilities are only active when the scabbard is near King Arthur.
Type: Support
Not enough Saber relationship points to create. FIGHT ON, SHIROU.
Name: Caladbolg I and Caladbolg II
Title: The Hardest Blade // Fake Spiral Sword
Ability: Caladbolg was the sword of Fergus mac Róich which was said to be able to even level mountains. It is a massive blade that can entirely change the geography of an area at the wielder's whim. Caladbolg II is the blade twisted up and turned into an arrow. It loses it's properties in earth changing and instead, will penetrate almost any target with extreme brutality. It is even capable of ripping through space when fired from a proper bow. If the user of this sword is Ulster born, Cu Chulainn is bound by a geas to be defeated by this weapon.
Type: Unknown
Name: Caliburn
Title: Golden Sword of Owed Victory
Ability: The famous "sword in the stone", Caliburn was what granted King Arthur his title of King. Though it does not have any useful abilities, its power as one of the greatest swords created by humans cannot be denied.
Type: Anti-Unit
Not enough Saber relationship points to create. YOU'RE LAGGING, SHIROU
Name: Dainsleif
Title: Blade of Ruin
Ability: The demonic sword from the Nibelungen, Dainsleif is a cursed Noble Phantasm that brings ruin to its possessor. It is a demonic sword handed down the family that killed the Northern European hero Sigurd, and it is a Noble Phantasm originally possessed by the dragon Fafnir. Wounds created by this sword fester and are slow to heal. If the user has hatred toward the target, it grants power to the user but the user will be brought to ruin after the battle is over.
Type: Anti-Unit
Name: Durandal
Title: The Peerless Sword
Ability: The holy sword favored by Roland, the paladin of Middle Age Europe. The king Charlemagne was granted the sword by an angel, and awarded it to Roland, the honored leader of the twelve knights. It holds three miracles and does not lose its sharpness even when its possessor's magical energy is depleted.
Type: Anti-Unit
Name: Excalibur
Title: Sword of Promised Victory
Ability: Excalibur is the sword of light and the obvious weapon of King Arthur. It can create the prana of it's user into light, making a massive blast capable of leveling castles.
Type: Anti-Fortress
Attempting to create this just makes a sword of light that can shoot light and kills Shirou afterward. NOPE.
Name: Gae Bolg
Title: The Spear of Impaling Barbed Death
Ability: Gáe Bolg is a cursed spear that was obtained in the Country of Shadows by Cú Chulainn. It has two separate abilities, each extremely deadly. It possess the ability of "causality reversal", allowing the spear to automatically pierce the heart unless the luck of the opponent is extremely high. Normally, the way a spear would work is the cause is "the spear is thrust" and the effect is "the heart is pierced". Gae Bolg reverses these meaning the cause is "the heart is pierced" and the effect is "the spear is thrust". In effect, the wound was already created so the lance is fated to strike true. If the spear is thrown, it accumulats energy and releases an explosion capable of wiping out entire armies. This is the true usage of the spear.
Type: Anti-Army
Name: Gram
Title: The Original Sin
Ability: The demonic sword, the sword of the sun, Gram. It is a demonic sword of ruin and glory that Sigurd, the greatest hero of Northern Europe, possessed in the Volsung saga. It is the model of Caliburn in the legend of the king Arthur. As Caliburn was a "sword stuck in the stone that choses the king", Gram was also a "sword stuck in the tree that grants authority" of the Volsung saga. As the "strongest demonic sword" equaling the "strongest holy sword", it even possesses the special characteristic of "dragon slayer", hence it is a natural enemy of the king of knights who is the incarnation of a dragon.
Type: Anti-Unit
Name: Harpe
Title: The Snake-Hunter Sickle
Ability: Harpe is the name of the snake hunter's scythe used by Perseus to kill Medusa, when she was in monstrous Gorgon form. Described as the gorgon-killing holy sword, it actually is not much of an excellent blade, but it possess the ability of "Refraction of Longevity", which is said to be the greatest special trait. A divine skill that nullifies the special powers of immortality, wounds inflicted by Harpe cannot be restored by any methods other than healing in accordance to the natural laws.
Type: Anti-Unit
Name: Houtengeki
Title: Crescent Blade
Ability: This is a one of a kind halberd, a weapon passed down in the Chinese culture. A halberd is a polearm used to thrust and strike, and has may uses. Although it was a weapon that could be used by anyone, it died out as time passed, until it was revived it the Sung period as Houtengeki. It has many uses, such as thrusting, swiping, pulling and parrying, but on the other hand, it is said that a great deal of skill is needed to handle this weapon.
Type: Anti-Unit
Name: Rho Aias
Title: The Seven Rings that Cover the Fiery Heavens
Ability: A bronze shield covered in seven layers of oxhide, it was the only shield capable of stopping the javelin thrown by the great hero Hector. This shield is an absolute defense against any projectile attack, forming seven overlapping layers of energy to deflect the incoming attack. If the attack is powerful enough to damage the shield, the user also take damage.
Type: Support
Name: Rule Breaker
Title: Talisman of All-Destroyed Commandments
Ability: Rule Breaker is a weapon that materializes the divinity of the witch of betrayal, Medea. Its unique ability is that it is the ultimate anti-magic Noble Phantasm capable of dispelling and destroying any kind of thaumaturgy. Once it comes into contact with the ensorcelled item or person, enchantments, connections bounded through contracts, and creatures created and maintained by prana will all be returned to their original components in a state "before they were made."
Type: Anti-Unit/Anti-Thaumaturgy
Name: Ifing
Title: Gale of Jotunheim
Ability: A jeweled dagger forged by dwarves to extract a boon from the Frost Giants of Norse Mythology, a channel within the blade contains water from the river that separates Jotunheim and Asgard, for which this Noble Phantasm is named. The blade is enchanted to summon a powerful gale upon each swing that shall freeze and overwhelm all with the misfortune to be in its path.
Type: Anti-Army
Name: Gungnir
Title: The Declaration of the Elder God
Ability: Once the spear of the Norse God Odin, Gungnir is the source of the celtic spear Gae Bolg's myth. The latter however has become more famous and is thus more powerful than the original. Still, Gugnir employs the same type of causality reversal as Gae Bolg; When used, the result of "Hitting the enemy's body" (versus specifically the heart in Gae Bolg's case) is a predetermined, destined event and thus unavoidable through conventional means. The blow however is far more survivable than one from Gae Bolg as it is not guaranteed to strike a vital area and can even be avoided entirely by someone with enough luck.
Type: Anti-Unit
Name: Kusanagi
Title: Wind Cutting Sword of the Heavens
Ability: Kusanagi is an eastern blade whose fame is also considered to approach that of Excalibur's. Possessing utter control over the domain of wind, the user is able conjure gales of hurricane force so concentrated that they are well capable of tearing through city blocks and cutting individuals to ribbons. As fitting of the predecessor of Japanese dueling sword however it's true power lay in the channeling of these powerful forces into the utter destruction of a single target.
Type: Anti-Unit
This list will become relevant soon, I swear.
